"It's also a seal?" Yu Yao couldn't help asking.

"Yes, I just got it yesterday, it's not as good as the emperor's idle chapter, but it doesn't seem to be ordinary, you can give it to the palm of your hand?"

Lao Zhou opened the brocade box, which was a Shoushan white hibiscus seal.

Shoushan stone, the most famous is naturally Tianhuang, but there are many types of Shoushan stone, and white hibiscus is also one of the famous products. This kind of stone has low hardness, easy to carve, and the feel is better, a little ointment, after playing, it is also particularly easy to pulp.

This seal is squarely cut and exquisitely carved. The top is embossed with the dragon button, and the printing pad is carved with a wishful pattern. The knife technique is round and straight, subtle and delicate.

"First-class worker!" Yu Yao couldn't help but sigh before he could get started.

Lao Zhou showed a slight smug look, took out the seal, put it on the rice paper, and deliberately rushed one of them towards Yu Yao.

Because on this side, there are two words engraved in Lishu:

Shang Jun.

This is the author's knowledge.

Zhou Bin, the word Shang Jun, the master of seal button carving during the Kangxi period, the seal button he carved is called "Shang Jun button". In the Qing Palace, some of his works are also collected. He had a profound influence on the art of printing buttons, especially in Shoushan stone carving.

Yu Yao stared at these two words for a while before going to look at the inscription, which read: Ren Zheshou.

"Old Zhou, this is Zhou Shangjun's real product. Yu Yao put down the seal and said with a smile, "You both have the surname Zhou, and you are really destined." ”

"Are you sure it's genuine?" asked Lao Zhou uneasily.

"The heart and hand correspond, the knife goes with the heart, this is the supreme realm of seal button carving. You see that this Kui dragon button and Ruyi pattern, obviously not connected, but as if born as one, the knife method is broken, and the knife intent is continuous. Look at this Shang Jun style again, there is no sense of jerky, only by carving your own name, there will be a feeling of proficiency to the extreme inside and out. ”

"Great!" Lao Zhou patted his thigh, "I want to collect this seal and seal, so I'm not afraid to buy expensive, I'm afraid to buy fake!"

"How much did it take?"

"Two hundred thousand!"

The material of this seal is not as precious as jade, nor is it as good as Tian Huang, which also belongs to Shoushan stone, but because it is Zhou Shangjun's work, this price is not expensive.

"I didn't buy it expensive. Yu Yao nodded, "Renzhishou, you are paying more and more attention to health preservation now!"

"I'm old, I can't compare to you young people!" Lao Zhou rubbed his face.

The three of them chatted for a while, and Lao Zhou had something to do, so he left first.

As soon as Lao Zhou's front foot left, Hu Zhanshan's back foot came.

Pu Jie had already asked him to come directly to the store today to talk about the Longqing blue and white jar, and Lao Zhou was an uninvited guest.

After Hu Zhanshan came, he sat down and drank two sips of tea, and just cut to the point, Lao Wang next door came in again, and smiled at a glance: "There are guests?"

Next door to the left and right of Gegu Zhai, on one side is a lake pen shop, two people operate pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and on the other side is Lao Wang's shop, mainly old cloth shoes and old woolen hats, there are more middle-aged and elderly customers, and the hats he sells are not green.

"What's the matter, Lao Wang?" Yu Yao knew that Lao Wang would not buy antiques.

"There's a little thing I want to ask you. Lao Wang hesitated, "Why don't you come to my store to talk?"

"Okay, then Pu Jie, you can talk to Mr. Hu. Mr. Hu, I'll miss you. Yu Yao then spoke. In his absence, Pu Jie is easy to raise the price.

Yu Yao entered Lao Wang's shop next door, and there was a nephew in Lao Wang's shop who was helping, so Lao Wang asked him to support him and invited Yu Yao into the cubicle.

"Old Wang, why are you so mysterious today?" Yu Yao said with a smile after sitting down.

"There's something I want you to help with the palm of my eyes, mainly because I promised that I would have to reply today, so I'm in a hurry. Lao Wang said a little embarrassedly, "I don't know, this, in your antique shop, the cost of this palm eye ······."

"Whew, Lao Wang, you are too polite, how many years have you been a neighbor in the shop, and when my father was here, he always praised you. What are you doing with the money?"

"Uncle Yu is also blessed. When Lao Wang heard this, he couldn't help sighing. In fact, Lao Wang is not much older than Yu Yao, this year Chinese New Year's Eve, his shop has been open for six or seven years, and the fathers who have seen Yu Yao before are called Uncle Yu.

Yu Yao paused slightly, "Take it out, I'll show you." You said you, you didn't come to me until you had to talk back today. ”

"It's not just that, my wife only came back last night and brought this thing. Lao Wang explained, "She went back to her hometown to ask for the account." A cousin in her hometown used to owe 100,000 yuan to my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and then my father-in-law and mother-in-law died, and my wife was an only child, and her cousin rewrote the IOU of her name. But it's been several years, and it hasn't been returned. ”

"I see, the offset. Yu Yao nodded, "I remember, my sister-in-law is from Hankou, right? ”

"Who said it wasn't!" Lao Wang nodded and shook his head again, "It's not an offset, my wife said to take it back and take a look at it first, and give a reply today at the latest. ”

"Okay, hurry up and take it out!" Yu Yao nodded.

Lao Wang took out a small plastic sealed bag directly from his coat pocket.

What came out of the plastic sealed bag was a semi-circular jade pendant.

Half a jade pendant.

Longpei.

Hetian white jade, the jade quality is good, and the craftsmanship is exquisite. It's just that the year is a little lighter, and it's something from the Republic of China period.

In the middle and upper part of the dragon pendant, a small rectangular blank area, two words are engraved:

Changan.

Yu Yao was taken aback!

Because in Xiao Ying's hand, there is another half of the jade pendant, the phoenix pendant, which is engraved with the word "Xu".

Xu Chang'an. Xu Taiyan's only son, Xu Chang'an.

"This piece of jade is worth 100,000 yuan, right?" asked Lao Wang cautiously at this time.

"I'll give you 200,000, how about giving it to me?" Yu Yao couldn't help blurting out.

"Huh?" Lao Wang didn't react for a while.

Yu Yao realized that he was a little out of shape, and took the jade pendant and fixed his mind, "I'll take a look." ”

Yu Yao said as he touched the cigarette, but found that the cigarette was in the store.

"Pump mine, pump mine. Lao Wang handed over the cigarette and lit the fire, "You just said that it is worth 200,000, I heard it right?"

In fact, such a piece of Hetian jade pendant, excellent jade quality, exquisite carving, if the dragon pendant and the phoenix pendant can be completely combined into one, the year of the Republic of China will not play much role.

Even modern handicrafts can be worth more than half a million.

However, half a block and a piece cannot be compared, and it is not as simple as dividing by two. 200,000 is a very high price.

Of course, this is only in terms of market value. This jade pendant, Yu Yao has to take it no matter how much it takes.

Yu Yao took two puffs of cigarette, analyzed the value problem to Lao Wang very realistically, and finally pointed out again, "Lao Wang, this jade pendant has a certain relationship with me, it is a relic of a senior, so I can give a little more, and besides, after selling it to me, I hope you can do me a favor." ”
