"It's all here, let's go after the auction, it's also an opportunity to observe and learn. Hu Yunde raised his hand, "Let's go, go back and take a look, there are still a few small things that I don't care too much about." ”

"Uncle De, that bronze ancestor-shaped vessel is quite open. ”

Hu Yunde: "······"

"It's too expensive!"

Wu Duo: "Okay, you don't need to look at the bronze mirror, and you don't need to look at the incense burner, there are only the scholarly pieces such as copper ruler copper ink cartridges placed together, I scan, they should all be from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China." ”

"Idle is idle, let's take another look. ”

So, the two of them walked up to these bronze study pieces again.

At this time, most of the people were looking at the golden incense bottle and the bronze elephant, and some were studying the copper incense burner and the bronze mirror.

These things are not sold by the piece, they are piled up and shot at once.

A pair of copper rulers, a copper cartridge, and a turtle button copper seal. These copper study pieces are added together, 20,000.

Most of the people who came to see it before just swept it and didn't pay too much attention to it. The year is clear at a glance, it is all the things of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, and it is not very meaningful.

Wu Duo remembered that Wu Xianming said that he didn't like singular numbers, and thought that this pile might be made up.

Although a pair of copper rulers are ordinary brass, the workmanship is good, the treatment of the arc at both ends is quite aesthetic, and a sentence is engraved on the front:

The worries of the world are worried

The joy of the world after tomorrow

But it's not a payment.

Hu Yunde seemed to like this pair of brass rulers, picked them up and admired them, and nodded slightly at the sentences on them.

Wu Duo picked up the copper cartridge in his hand.

Not to mention, even if it's a pile of things, it's a bit of a small feature. This copper cartridge is white copper, boxy, but the corners are very rounded, and the cover is engraved with a poem, one of Du Fu's eight poems:

Hearing that Chang'an is like a game of chess, the world is sad for a hundred years. The princes and princes are all new owners, and the civil and military clothes are different from the past. Zhibei Guanshan Golden Drum Zhen, Expedition West Che Ma Yu Book Chi. The fish and dragon are lonely and the autumn river is cold, and the old country lives in peace.

There is no money.

Wu Duoxin said, just now I just looked at it in general, and I broke the generation, and now I look at this lettering, and the more I look at it, the more I show my skills!

The line of calligraphy, the knife work is exquisite, the rules are measured, such as the flow of clouds, which is pleasing to the eye.

Engraved copper cartridges, in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China is very popular, the meaning of appreciation has been greater than the practical significance, literati and scholars are always available. And the masterpiece of the famous is also a good gift from dignitaries.

And the white copper cartridge is not the ordinary brass cartridge, at that time this kind of white copper is also called "Saiyin white copper", it is really added silver, copper, silver, tin alloy.

The white copper cartridge is the right size, white and smooth, and feels very good.

Wu Duo took off the lid again and looked inside, although the liner had been dyed jet black, it could be seen from the slight mottling that it should be copper.

Looking at the bottom of the box, there is no hall number and payment.

Wu Duo frowned slightly, he didn't look carefully before, he really carved a good character; it is said that if he has the ability to write at this moment, even if he is not a famous artist, he should have a paragraph.

After thinking about it, Wu Duo decided to listen to it.

It doesn't matter if you don't listen to it, when you hear it, you can hear two celebrities!

This ······

Almost missed!

Wu Duo immediately turned the lid of the white copper box over and looked at the vertical inside of the lid.

Because, he heard, it was engraved on one of the vertical inwards!

However, the vertical inside of the lid of this box is also dyed with a layer of inky black, and it is impossible to see whether there is any engraving.

It seems that it has to be thoroughly brushed out.

Wu Duo looked inside, but it was just the inertial movement after hearing the content, and it was best to see it, but he couldn't see that he had already heard it.

No wonder no one found out, it turned out to be covered by inky black.

The content of the inscription on the inside of a piece of inscription that Wu Duo heard was: Mr. Liang Qichao Yazheng, Wuxu Zhi Qiu Yin was engraved.

This is a white copper cartridge carved by Chen Yinsheng for Liang Qichao!

Chen Yinsheng, a calligrapher and painter in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, was a famous copper carver, and pioneered the artistic paradigm of engraving on copper ink cartridges.

Chen Yinsheng engraved copper fonts, regular scripts, line books, official books, and seal books. The subject matter of carved copper paintings is also very wide, including landscape figures, flowers, birds, insects and fish. From the end of the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, Chen Yinsheng, Zhang Yuechen, and Yao Mang's father were called the three masters of copper carving.

Just say that this white copper cartridge engraved by Chen Yinsheng is well preserved from the appearance to the copper liner, and the market price is more than ten or two hundred thousand.

What's more, there is also another celebrity Liang Qichao associated here.

Wu Duo finally understood why Chen Yinsheng's copper ink cartridge was not a conventional way of payment, not leaving money after the verses on the lid, but leaving a dark piece on the inside of the lid.

Because the engraving time is "the autumn of Wuxu".

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the famous Wuxu Reform Law, also known as the Hundred Days Restoration, was implemented from June 11, 1898, to September 21, when Cixi launched the Wuxu Coup, which ended in failure.

This white copper cartridge was most likely engraved at the time of the failure of the Pentecostal Reform.

Engraved in the autumn of Wuxu when the law change failed, it was engraved with Du Fu's autumn xing, and engraved to Liang Qichao, who was about to go into exile, as a farewell.

In this case, how can the names of Liang Qichao and Chen Yinsheng be exposed in a conspicuous place on the lid of the box!

Liang Qichao was in exile in exile for 14 years, and did not return until 1912. I don't know how many years this cartridge accompanied him, but then for some reason it stayed in the Wa Kingdom.

And now, it has flowed from Wa to Taidao, and then from Taidao to Egret Island, appearing in this trading field.

This white copper cartridge, the creator is the copper master Chen Yinsheng, the user is the historical celebrity Liang Qichao, these two factors together, the market is not easy to estimate, if it is on the big auction, shoot hundreds of thousands of it, shoot one or two million is also it.

This leak is too unexpected.

Wu Duo couldn't help but look at Hu Yunde at this time, and it happened that Hu Yunde was also looking at him.

The two of them said in unison: "Take it!"

Hu Yunde coughed lightly, "Xiao Wu, I really like this pair of brass rulers, and I want to take them myself." ”

"Huh?" Wu Duo was slightly stunned.

Hu Yunde explained: "This pile of things, don't look at the price is not high, but in fact there is no benefit, and the delivery time may not be short, which is not suitable for Daya Zhai to collect." But as for me, I like this pair of rulers, but they don't sell them in small quantities, so I want to collect them together. ”

"Uncle De, look at this white copper cartridge, do you like it?" Wu Duo blurted out subconsciously.

"Oh, you want this cartridge, I'm not interested in it. When Hu Yunde heard this, "No wonder you also said you took it." ”

Wu Duo was about to answer, but saw two middle-aged men pointing at things and walking forward, so he immediately stepped forward and picked up the price tag, "Uncle De, then take it first, and then go back and talk about it in detail!"

"Hey, I still want to see this pile of copper study pieces, are you sure you want to accept it?" One of the middle-aged men asked when he saw that Wu Duo had already taken the price tag.
