"Farm tools are so valuable. Ye Mei was speechless.

Teacher Ren smiled: "Strictly speaking, this is no longer a farm tool, it is better to say that it is a kitchen tool!"

Hu Yang nodded: "No matter what it is, there are valuable ones, it depends on what materials are used to make them." Even if it is the same object made of the same material, or even just one thing, the value will be different if the user is different.

Let's just talk about farm tools! What the emperor used was certainly not a mortal thing. ”

The emperor's use, not to mention farm tools, is the toilet used for, which is estimated to be very valuable. Actually, don't talk about the emperor! Many local tyrants in the Middle East use gold to make toilets, isn't it worthless?

"How can the emperor use farm tools. "Some people are not convinced.

Teacher Ren couldn't help but laugh: "The emperor also has a lot of ploughing the fields! How can they work without farm tools? In ancient times, many emperors would personally plow the land and do farm work in the spring, setting an example for all the people and showing their importance to agriculture.

Of course, this is just a show. But in any case, people just did it! The tools they used were naturally not those used by ordinary people, they were all specially built by the palace.

Seriously, your entire net worth may not be able to sell someone a farm tool. ”

Mr. Ren's words are true, China has been a big agricultural country since ancient times, and farming and people's livelihood are closely linked, so the emperor, as the king of a country, naturally attaches great importance to it.

Even Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty personally cultivated the land many times and set an example. When the plague of locusts comes, they even eat a locust in public. You don't care if they are putting on a show or not, but they have already made this gesture, and they will only praise it in the history books.

During the Qing Dynasty, the emperor had to "push and return three times" and plough the land three times. It's just that the emperor is not interesting to put on a show by himself, so Emperor Qianlong added another link: after the ploughing is completed, the emperor wants to go up to the viewing platform to watch the ploughing performances of the princes and ministers.

After hearing this, everyone reacted, yes! The farm tools used by the emperor are not ordinary farm tools, and they must be valuable! They are also collectible.

Not to mention the emperor, even the things of big families are also made a little more luxurious!

Just like the cake mold in front of you, if it is made of golden silk nanmu, it is estimated that it will be more precious.

"Brother Hu is right! It is the same thing, the user is different, and the value will be different. Aren't we often complaining? What ordinary people have used is waste, and what celebrities have used is cultural relics, how can it be the same?"

"The truth, let's talk about the purple clay pot that Xu Hong pinched earlier! I feel that the one I pinched will look better, but absolutely no one wants to spend 500,000 yuan to buy it. ”

......

Hu Yang saw that Hua Tsai and them were picking and choosing, and he felt that there was nothing he wanted, and the young stall owner's face was not very good, so he said: "Forget it, this big brother has suffered a lot of losses, and we won't pick up your leaks." ”

After speaking, he picked up an abacus on the stall and handed it to the stall owner: "This old abacus is a good thing, its beads are made of ebony, you should know ebony, right? So, it is at least worth tens of thousands, don't let people pick it up." ”

When the young stall owner heard this, he hurriedly took it and was overjoyed: "Made of ebony?" I said, why is it so heavy, a good thing! Thank you! Dude, I made this friend of yours." ”

Of course he knew about ebony, some of which were even more expensive than gold, or more expensive than gold.

If the beads of this old abacus are all made of ebony, they must be valuable! After all, it is known as the oriental sacred wood, which has both the quaintness of wood and the charm of stone.

The ancients said: "A half square of ebony in a home is better than a box of treasures."

This is not to boast, ebony has been a precious luxury since ancient times, and the emperors are trying to collect it and make up enough coffin boards for themselves. Yuan Shikai wants to get himself a gloomy wooden coffin, but this wish can't be fulfilled, you can imagine its preciousness.

"Big brother, how did you find out?" the stall owner couldn't help but ask.

He mainly wanted to confirm further, for fear that it was just Hu Yang's casual remarks just now, and he was happy to find someone.

"You can smell it, is it scented? I guess it's camphor wood, or ebony that nanmu has become. Only the ebony that these two trees turn into will have a smell.

You look at its color, the degree of charring is very good, not high or low. ”

"What happens when it's high?" someone asked.

"When the degree of charring is high, it will become coal. So, it's not that the higher the degree of charring, the better. Hu Yang said to everyone.

As for identifying ebony, there are many methods, and he taught the stall owner a few tricks, mainly to see that the young man is good, and the attitude towards the old man just now can be seen.

There is a mantra for the identification of ebony: the body is like carbon black, the color is different, the water is black and bright, the oiled color is stationed, the ash is yellow, different from the ordinary wood; the weight is different, it can sink and float, whether the fragrance is or not, there are a number of exists, the tree species are different, and the smell is none.

"This kind of thing that shimmers with a pitch-black sheen is generally two cases, except for ebony, which is lacquered. So, if you paint something, you can be careful. It shouldn't be hard to tell, right?" added Hu Yang.

Andy smiled: "Brother, if you can't believe Brother Hu's words, this old abacus can be transferred to me for 50,000 yuan, and there will be no risk, I will bear it." ”

The young stall owner said, "Brother, I must believe my eldest brother's words! ”

He knows better than Andy and the others, even if this kind of thing is only worth 50,000 now, it will definitely not be at this price in the future, it will appreciate in value, how can it be possible for others to make it?

The audience in the live broadcast room was speechless: Okay! Another sycophant, now he is all screaming big brother.

"Big brother, you can pick any one of my things, no money. The stall owner said flatteringly.

"Really? You're welcome. As he spoke, Populus unceremoniously picked up something, a bronze vessel, a bit like a hook, and I couldn't tell what it was, let alone what it was.

After Hu Yang picked up that thing, he gave it to Lu Daqiang.

The stall owner's smile suddenly froze on his face.

The audience in the live broadcast room laughed: "Haha! Make you generous! Miserable, right?"

"You're going to laugh at me!" Now the stall owner's heart is broken. ”

"Little Brother of the stall owner: Big brother, I was joking just now. ”

"Stallholder: Big brother, I was wrong, be merciful!"

......

At the scene, Mr. Ren and others couldn't hold back for a while, which was really funny.

The young stall owner cried and mourned: "Big brother, what is this, and how much is it worth?"

"It's worthless! This should be something from the Zhou Dynasty, it seems to be a part unscrewed from a bronze tripod, at most 10,000 pieces. Hu Yang comforted.

The most important thing is the bronze hook and the inscription, which is the most valuable thing. Otherwise, it's worthless.

The stall owner thought to himself: Isn't this 10,000 yuan not money in the eyes of my eldest brother? I have to work for many days to earn it!
