"Master Jiang wants to prove that I am wrong with a proof?Okay, my father came to Yunhai this time for a collection, and now the thing is here, as long as Master Jiang can tell all its origins, I will pour tea to Master Jiang to admit my mistake, how about it?" Gu Xu sneered and put the small wooden box in his hand on the table.

I want to prove it, right? I'll give you this chance!

This thing is a true master who is familiar with the official history and has a wealth of experience, and he may not be able to see its origin.

"Oh, you guys came all the way to the sea of clouds for it? Jiang Feng didn't care about Gu Xu's words, and said with interest.

As the president of the Antique Association, Gu Wenguan can make him feel excited, and it is definitely not easy to travel thousands of miles.

Gu Wenguan smiled, and did not stop his son from acting, he also took the opportunity to see how much material Jiang Feng had.

Su Lao glared at Gu Xu very unhappily, wanting him to eat chestnuts to his heart's content!

But Jiang Feng said so, so he could only shut up and endure it.

Gu Xu opened the small wooden box, took out a bronze fish from it, and looked for two fingers long and wide, which looked like a dace, but with a slightly larger mouth and large and bulging eyes, not on the sides, but close to the top of the head!

Jiang Feng's expression became solemn, and he reached out to take it, carefully rubbing the lifelike scales on it.

"Why is this bronze fish with such strange eyes?!" Su Lao was shocked.

There are still many antiques in the shape of fish, and the carp is mainly used, symbolizing that there is more than enough every year, and the fish jumps over the dragon gate.

But bronze is very rare, and the most strange thing is the eyes on his head, which give him a strange feeling.

"Master Jiang, can you tell where it came from?" Gu Xu smirked.

It was his father, who also saw the picture of this bronze fish, and consulted many historical materials to see the relevant words.

Jiang Feng exhaled lightly, glanced at Gu Xu, and said slowly: "China's bronze craft culture has appeared since the Xia Dynasty, and has experienced the Shang, Western Zhou, Spring and Autumn Periods, Warring States Period, Qin and Han Dynasties.

However, the degree of development of bronze craftsmanship in each period is different, which is also the standard by which we distinguish bronze products. ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Feng looked at the bronze fish in his hand, "This bronze fish is exquisitely crafted, the shape is lifelike, and each fish scale is depicted very clearly, which is the product of the mature period of bronze technology." ”

"To be precise, what period it is. Gu Xu pursed his lips.

This knowledge knows a little bit about history, and it is nothing.

"The bronze products of the Xia and Shang periods were complicated and gorgeous, and the ornamentation was dominated by animal patterns, and in the late Spring and Autumn Period, the pursuit of simple and elegant beauty was pursued.

The bronze craftsmanship of these periods was at its peak, but it was still difficult to make delicate bronze products.

Then from the late Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period, the shape of the instrument was ingenious, light, and the ornamentation was no longer dominated by mysterious and deterrent animal patterns, but was biased towards reality and easy to understand.

In the Qin and Han dynasties, it was more lightweight, delicate, and unique, which was most in line with the craft smelting period of this bronze fish. Jiang Feng said eloquently.

Su Lao nodded slightly, his conclusion was the same as Jiang Feng's.

With the bronze smelting process of the previous periods, it is difficult to make such a fine thing.

It was only at this level that it began in the late Western Zhou Dynasty.

"Are you sure it's from the Qin and Han dynasties?" Gu Xu curled the corners of his mouth, but quickly returned to normal.

"No, this bronze fish should be from the late Western Zhou Dynasty. Jiang Feng shook his head.

A look of surprise flashed in Gu Wenguan's eyes, it took him a lot of time and a lot of historical materials to determine the origin of this bronze fish, Jiang Feng actually saw through it in a few glances!?

Did you guess it right by chance?

"You! Didn't you just say that during the Western Zhou Dynasty, it was difficult to make such a fine bronze fish?!" Gu Xu almost bit his tongue.

You just said such a big chase to tease me?

"Hehe, I said it was difficult, but I didn't say absolutely not. Jiang Feng said with a smile.

The pinnacle of bronze craftsmanship was around the late Western Zhou Dynasty, but at that time, weapons, containers and sacrificial heavy weapons were the mainstay, and the later periods tended to be lightweight.

"This fish, if I'm not mistaken, should be called the top pearl fish. ”

Jiang Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, he was actually the first time he had seen this kind of bronze fish, but he had seen some wild history records in his previous life, and he didn't take it to heart at that time.

"Because its eyes are like beads?" asked Su Lao curiously.

"It's not a bead, it's a pearl of the night!"

Jiang Feng said amazingly, "During the Western Zhou Dynasty, the allusion of Sui Hou saving the snake and getting the pearl, you should all know that the rumors of the night pearl also appeared at that time.

And the top pearl fish, a wild history of the Spring and Autumn Period, the longest can reach three or four feet, the eyes are at the top, such as the size of a fist, the night glow, the night pearl general. ”

"Why haven't I heard of this kind of fish existing?" Su Lao frowned.

"Because the Dingzhu Fish is unique to a small subordinate country of the Western Zhou Dynasty princes, named Zhaoju, it existed for a very short time, and it was swallowed by the wind and sand in less than a hundred years, and this bronze fish is likely to be something left over from Zhaoju. Jiang Feng thought for a while and said.

In his previous life, he didn't believe in the existence of Zhaozheng, and most of the wild history and miscellaneous talks in ancient times were based on false rumors, and anything strange would be written into it.

But seeing this bronze fish now made Jiang Feng's heart set off turbulent waves.

It shows that Zhao Ju may have really existed, and this is a mysterious and unknown lost country, which is very attractive to him.

As soon as Jiang Feng's words came out, Su Lao was so shocked that goosebumps broke all over his body.

Why do so many people like antiques, just like precious calligraphy and paintings worth hundreds of millions, is that ancient paper so valuable?

No, what really values it is the human history behind it!

Appraisers, collectors, archaeologists, in fact, are all like-minded people who love to dig up history.

"Master Jiang really deserves to be a master hidden in the city, Gu admires it!" Gu Wenguan arched his hand and sighed, completely impressed.

What Jiang Feng said was the same as what he knew, and even more detailed!

"If you win the award, the master doesn't dare to be it, don't be regarded as a liar with a false name, I'm very content. Jiang Feng looked at Gu Xu with a smile.

"Bastard, how do I usually teach you? There is no one to guard the mouth, why don't you hurry up and pour tea with Master Jiang to admit your mistake!" Gu Wenguan glared at his son.

The corners of Gu Xu's mouth twitched slightly, and his father was about to cross the river and tear down the bridge.

Before I came, you asked me to test Jiang Feng!

It's good now, I'll carry all the black pots, but you can pick yourself clean.

After complaining and complaining in his heart, Gu Xu still obediently poured tea and admitted his mistake.

He is also convinced of Jiang Feng now, even his father has to check the information about this thing, but the other party is like a treasure.

"Alright, sit down. Jiang Feng waved his hand at Gu Xu.

"Since Master Jiang knows the origin of the bronze fish, can you find out the exact geographical location of Zhao Ju now?" asked Gu Wenguan expectantly.

If you can excavate the country of Zhaoqi, it will definitely shock the antique and archaeological world!

"The approximate distribution area is possible!"
