Chapter 548: Ancient Stygian Coins
Brother Yu's face was slightly embarrassed, and he explained: "Actually, I don't know if it's a treasure, I'm not good at antique appreciation after all."
However, from my understanding of carving alone, this Buddha statue is well cast. If it's carved, carved like this, it's also remarkable. ”
Well, people didn't see if it was an antique at all, but judging from the quality, it didn't feel simple, so I suggested that Xu Hong buy it.
This can be regarded as a mistake, just happened to run into a baby.
No matter what, Xu Hong still expressed his gratitude to Brother Yu. If Brother Yu can really see it completely, I'm afraid he won't be able to take his turn, don't people think that the baby is hot? It's also a million treasures!
After passing a small stall, Populus euphratica almost didn't look at it, so he scooped up a thing and asked the price, the price was not cheap, it cost 5,000.
It seems that the stall owners and bosses here all regard the poplar group as fish in water, and the price is generally not low.
"It's expensive, five hundred, it can't be more, if you want, ask her for money, if you don't want to, forget it. Hu Yang said, and handed the thing to Shui Ruyue.
This girl, she was about to drool when she saw it just now.
Shui Ruyue is an elf person, as soon as she saw Brother Hu giving her a look, she immediately received the message, nodded and said: "I work here, boss, you don't think it's the first day to come, you should know me, it's too expensive for me to afford." ”
Yes, the people of this boat are really embarrassed to slaughter them.
I have to give face, so the stall owner thought about it, and he earned 500 yuan!
"I know you, okay! For the sake of beautiful women, five hundred is five hundred. ”
Shui Ruyue paid immediately, she also saw Brother Hu's skills, and it was a good look to see the baby. I don't know how much the 500 yuan is worth.
"This is a copper coin made of jade, which is really rare. Andy said.
Ancient coins are often seen, especially copper coins. But the coins made of jade, Andy is the first time to see them, they are made of imitation copper coins, and they are also coins with an outer circle and an inner square, and they also have words.
Everyone wonders, did this kind of coin exist in ancient times? I have never heard of it.
Brother Yu hesitated for a moment and said, "How can you say this thing! If there are taboo people, they may not touch it." ”
"Why?" everyone was stunned for a moment.
Hu Yang explained to everyone: "Because in ancient times, it was equivalent to our current mortal coin. But in fact, in ancient times, some people used it as an ornament that could be worn on the body. Brother Yu is also right, people who are taboo themselves may not be very willing to touch. ”
He told everyone that this thing was also called Yusheng jade money in ancient times, and it had appeared in the Han Dynasty.
However, the earliest jade coins imitated the form of copper coins, and the meat was good without Guo, without words and ornaments, without traces of use, and without refinement.
From the Northern and Southern Dynasties to the Sui Dynasty, jade money as a tired money still exists for a long time, archaeological excavations have found from time to time, it is still in the form of imitation copper coins, but some have been engraved with simple ornaments, mostly imitation of the copper coins at that time "four out" ornaments, or engraved with tired words.
The Tang Dynasty jade money unearthed less, the more famous is the Tang Dynasty Leifeng Tower underground palace unearthed "Kaiyuan Tongbao" jade money, imitation copper money form, diameter 2.5 cm, Lishu Yin carved text, wear, Guo processing fine, obviously this is the Buddhist believers to wear and play with the tired of the jade money.
That is to say, in the Tang Dynasty, some people have begun to treat this kind of jade money as a kind of cultural play.
After the Tang Dynasty, the Liao, Song, and Jin dynasties all had jade money, especially in the Liao and Song dynasties, and jade money was more popular.
In the Song Dynasty, the royal family, high-ranking nobles, and wealthy merchants held a ceremony of "washing three bags" on the third day of the baby's birth, and made money from gold, silver, jade, rhino, ivory, sandalwood and other materials to give to their subordinates, relatives and friends.
In the Qing Dynasty, there was no taboo about jade money.
The Qing Dynasty royal jade money is according to its canonical system, where the production of the royal jade treasure book, the margins are inlaid with yellow silk, each jade book is engraved with a Chinese "world peace" jade coin. This jade coin is two inches in diameter, six points thick, five points in holes, tied to the yellow silk rope used to tie it, made by the hands of the Qing Palace's jade craftsmen, and can be said to be very valuable.
Yes?
Shui Ruyue didn't know what to say, that is to say, this thing is money for the dead......?
Seeing her hesitation, Andy smiled and said, "You can ask Brother Hu, how much is this worth, you can just give it to me." Jade, especially ancient jade, many of which are funeral goods, I don't have this psychological burden. ”
Shui Ruyue couldn't help but look at Brother Hu.
Hu Yang told her to calm down a little: "Don't worry, your one is a little different from what we just said." It should be the Song Dynasty's launder money, or the money in the account. Not only is it not a funeral coin, but it is also a jade coin with blessings.
Generally speaking, it is the third day of the child's birth, the return gift to relatives and friends, with the joy of the child's birth, and the stygian coin are completely different things.
You see, the words on this jade coin are 'Ten Thousand Bells of Shilu'. It's an auspicious word. To be honest, this jade coin is quite precious, because from the archaeological point of view, it seems that the washing money has not yet been excavated in kind, and everyone only knows that there is such a jade coin in ancient times through some records. ”
This explanation, even Brother Yu has seen it for a long time, and it is also the first time to hear this knowledge point.
In this way, there is no taboo, and the smile climbs back on the pretty face of the water like the moon.
Hu Yang smiled again: "Of course, it's not bad to give it to Andy, the normal market price, this quality of Song Dynasty jade money, is about twenty or thirty thousand." Considering the rarity of this jade coin, it is okay to give it 50,000. When you meet a collector who just wants to find this kind of jade money, it may be higher, as for how much it can be, I can't say, you two discuss it. ”
Andy knows Brother Hu very well, he said that if he meets a suitable collector and can offer a high price, it will definitely not be a star and a half higher, so he didn't bother to care, and directly offered the highest price that Brother Hu just said - 50,000.
And Shui Ruyue also did not hesitate, and sold it without saying a word.
She works on this ship, earning thousands of dollars a month. 50,000 yuan is almost her annual income, or she may not be able to save 50,000 yuan a year, after all, the girl's daily expenses are slightly larger.
After the transaction, she thanked Brother Hu and Brother Hua again and again.
From the beginning, she was glued to the big star Xu Hong, and now she likes to follow Brother Hu, this is the change brought about by interests. Big stars, when they first meet them, they must be happy, excited, excited, and so on, but after contact, it's just like that.
But Brother Hu is different, and he can bring her practical benefits.
At this moment, Brother Yu looked ahead, suddenly frowned, and a rare look of disgust appeared on his face.
