While talking to the old farmer, Yu Yao took a closer look at the cloth.

The cloth was rectangular, about a foot wide, and more than half a meter long. Although it is black and dirty, it still has a touch of smoothness when you get started. Pick it up, the pattern can be seen clearly, it seems to be a landscape, but it seems to be unusual, a bit of a fairy cave house.

Judging from the content, this cloth is really too dirty, and I can't look at it in more detail. But in terms of texture, Yu Yao can see it.

"What are you talking about? This is a long time ago, and it has not been cleaned, and it has been accumulated. If you look closely, there are landscape patterns on it. The old farmer packed up his things and didn't even look at Yu Yao, "Do you want it?"

When Jin Ding heard this, he came back to his senses, "I'll take a look." ”

There was no way, in someone's store, Yu Yao had to hand it to Jin Ding.

Jin Ding looked at it carefully, and it didn't seem that he was ugly, but he smiled, "Uncle Zhang, I'll accept your pair of walnuts, and the walnut-wrapped cloth should be sent?"

"That's up to you to make a bid. ”

"I'm not taking you here, it's definitely the price of a kick!" "A kick is the meaning of a shot, and several pieces are taken together.

"Okay, let's compare. ”

At this time, the old farmer had already put away the things that Jinding didn't want and pulled up the woven bag. The two walked to the door and talked in a low voice.

Pu Jie also asked Yu Yao in a low voice, "Do you really want that piece of cloth?"

"This, Boss Jin also saw it. This is to turn around and sell it to me at a higher price. Yu Yao frowned.

"What a good thing, don't you have to?"

"Good stuff is definitely good stuff. However, it is not easy to determine the generation, and you have to find a professional to wash it out to be completely sure. Wait and see what he pays. ”

After Jin Ding and the old farmer finished discussing, the payment was cleared. After the old farmer left, Jin Ding said to Yu Yao with a smile, "Brother, this is not cloth, this is a piece of silk!"

"Boss Jin laughed, how can silk be so thick?"

"Originally, it wasn't so thick, but the pattern woven on it was more complicated, and it couldn't be woven without thickness. ”

"Since Boss Jin likes it, let's keep it. ”

"Dude, to tell you the truth, what I like is this pair of old walnuts. But I don't see you're interested in walnuts, you're interested in this piece of silk. ”

"How do you say that? In Uncle Zhang's words just now, it depends on the price, and if it is high, it will be boring. ”

Jin Ding pursed his lips, "Or twenty thousand, or?"

Yu Yao laughed, "Boss Jin, you want to play walnuts without paying a penny!"

Jin Ding's face was shocked. That's right, although he kicked several things just now, if you calculate it carefully, this pair of old walnuts cost less than 20,000.

Yu Yao lifted the bag on his hand, "I regretted this pen holder just now, the price is too high." This piece of cloth, you say it's silk, it's silk, I want to buy it, because the old Buddha shrine at home has less curtains, I look at this cloth is a bit old, the size is improvised, and there are patterns. However, it is not easy to wash it out, and I am hesitating. ”

Pu Jie pulled Yu Yao at the right time, "Let's go, let's go, I haven't visited other stores yet!"

Yu Yao nodded, "Boss Jin, you're busy, let's leave." ”

If Jin Ding could understand the true value of this piece of silk, this trick would not be good, but the problem was that he couldn't understand it! Moreover, if it was a good thing, how could it be so dirty?

He asked Uncle Zhang just now, Uncle Zhang didn't know what it was, when he received it, it was in an old house, it turned out to be a pair of old jade bracelets, and they didn't give it away, and they were willing to give it together after adding two hundred.

The reason why Uncle Zhang was willing to add money was because he saw that there was a pattern on it, and he wanted to come back and wash it himself, but he was afraid that it would be damaged, and second, he was lazy. When I was loading things, I was busy, so I wrapped the walnuts and put them up.

It's not like a handkerchief, it's too big, it's not like a scarf, it's too short, and it's possible to hang it in a frame, but if it's hung all the time, it's not so dirty.

"Then how much can you pay?" Jin Ding saw the two of them take a step before he spoke.

"That's the number at most. Yu Yao turned around and stretched out two fingers.

"Two thousand, that's too little!"

"So, you'd better wait for a good buyer. Boss Kim will see you back. ”

"How's eight thousand? I'm sincere enough!"

Yu Yao shook his head.

This situation is reversed from when Yu Yao bought the pen holder. In the end, Jin Ding gave it all the way, until it reached two thousand, and then hesitated to agree.

Yu Yao and Pu Huang walked twenty or thirty steps, Pu Jie pulled Yu Yao to the side, and couldn't wait to ask, "Good guy, that pen holder, I can still figure it out, it may be an ordinary tool, but what is this cloth?"

"This piece of cloth is no less valuable than the palace utensils!" Yu Yao then introduced the pen holder first.

The leak of the pen holder is actually a bit hanging. Because Jin Ding must know that there are also palace products, but the palace tools on the market are too rare.

Moreover, maybe he didn't know Liang Jiugong, or he might know Liang Jiugong, but most of the inscriptions of the three generations of Qing Dynasty were dated by the name of the year, and few were famous; and he was also a eunuch, not a famous craftsman.

As for this cloth, Jin Ding is right, it is silk.

But it's not ordinary silk.

It's called silk.

Silk is the essence of silk art, and has been used by the royal family since the Song Dynasty. What do you do the most? Weaving dragon robes and phoenix clothes, standard statues of emperors and queens, royal curtains, and copying top calligraphy and paintings.

This is fabric, not pen and ink, to weave the content of calligraphy and painting, but also realistic, this is a high technology!

Not only is the technology high, but if you think about how fine the silk is, you will know that this is an incomparably complicated work, and some works even take several years of work.

The key technique of silk is called picking the warp and weft, and some people call it through the warp and weft. To put it simply, the role of the warp is only interspersed, and the pattern is displayed as a colored weft. That's why it's very delicate, no less than what is drawn!

In ancient times, there was a saying that "an inch of silk is an inch of gold". The things used by the royal family were not bad.

In the auction, there are three main forces of ancient fabrics: silk, brocade and embroidery, and the transaction price of silk has always been the leader.

In addition, there are few imitations of silk, because the process is too difficult, and it is not easy to make.

Now there are very few craftsmen who inherit the silk skills, take the piece of silk work that Yu Yao bought, including a variety of progressive colors, there must be hundreds or thousands of kinds, even if it is a skilled senior technician, rushing to work every day, I am afraid it will take a year and a half. The cost is too high.

Moreover, if you want to say that it is an ancient court thing, it has to be old. It is even more difficult to make the silk old.

Therefore, there are basically no fake old silk works on the market.

"Good guy!" After listening to Yu Yao's introduction, Pu Jie couldn't help but scream, and lowered his voice instead, "Although it can't be broken for a while, at least it's from the Qing Dynasty, right?"
