This jade pendant can be seen clearly because of the yellow cat's stretched posture, except that it can't be turned over.

This is a little jade man.

The height is about four centimeters, and the maximum width is about the same number. The jade is white and delicate, with a sense of light and ice, and the side of the head and the lower side of the body are a little grayish.

This little jade man is a kneeling man, homophonic "meet nobles".

The man wears a crown on his head, has high cheekbones, and has large, long eyes. The clothes on the body are not ornamented, and the belt is outlined with geometric lines. This is also a typical Han Dynasty style.

The man not only sits on his knees, but also rests his right hand on his knee and raises his left hand very high, as if to say something or sing something.

The overall is vivid and expressive, and it is very charming.

Yu Yao liked this little jade man very much for a while.

Xiao Ying was looking through a few loose ancient books at this time, and Yu Yao didn't bother him, and after getting up, he walked around the store again, and finally took a large pen holder and came to the counter.

"Got a crush on something?" The young man didn't know if he was playing a game just when he hung up, or if he could grasp the measure, and when he saw Yu Yao coming over with something, he put down his phone and stood up.

"Well, what is the lowest price for this blue and white pen holder?" Yu Yao put the pen holder on the counter.

This tube is indeed very large, more than 20 centimeters high, 15 or 6 centimeters in diameter, the carcass is not thick, the blue and white hair color is quite verdant, there is a sense of beauty.

The content of the picture is also relatively complex, with many characters, and it is a "four-way robbery law field".

This is the story of the Water Margin.

Song Jiang inscribed an anti-poem of "dare to laugh at Huang Chao is not a husband" in Xunyang Building, and was found by Huang Wenbing and went to prison, Cai Jing's son Cai Jiu was the prefect at the time, and sent Dai Zong, the "Shenxing Taibao", to Cai Jing to send a letter to ask how to deal with it. As Song Jiang's younger brother, Dai Zong took the letter directly to Liangshan.

Wu Yong, the military advisor, arranged for Xiao Rang and Jin Dajian to forge Cai Jing's letter seal. As a result, due to urgency, he was overlooked for a while, and he used a seal of Hanlin Cai Jing. When a father writes a letter to his son, he usually does not use a seal, and even if he does, he does not use such a seal. In the end, in desperation, Tianwang Chao Gai led some of his brothers to rob the Dharma field when Song Jiang was about to be beheaded.

Because in addition to the Liangshan brothers led by Chao Gai all the way, and at the same time coincidentally robbed the Dharma Field, there were also Black Whirlwind Li Kui all the way, Langli Baitiao Zhang Shun all the way, and Bantam Tiger Wang Ying all the way, so it is called the Four Roads Robbing Dharma Field. Of course, the remaining three roads all followed Song Jiang to Liangshan in the end.

There is a pen holder with this kind of picture, even if it is genuine, at least it can explain two problems:

First, it can't be an official kiln. Because how can the official kiln paint this kind of content?

Second, this pen holder must have been from the late Ming Dynasty onwards. Don't look at the Water Margin was written in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, but the prints about the content of the Water Margin were only available in the late Ming Dynasty, and related pictures appeared on porcelain, which was later than the prints.

Of course, to judge the second point, you don't need to start from the picture, because the pen holder itself was only available in the late Ming Dynasty.

In ancient times, the pen holder was a "useless" thing, because the writing brush, no matter whether the pen rushed up or down, it could not be put down; After the brush is used up and washed, it can only be hung up.

Therefore, the pen holder can only hold unused brushes, but unused brushes can be stored anywhere. Therefore, among all the stationery supplies, the pen holder appeared the latest, and the most important thing is still decorative.

The young man looked at the pen holder, "You really want it?"

"Don't you want me to ask you?"

"This thing is a rare commodity, not cheap. ”

"Rare goods?"

"This is a fine folk kiln in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the glaze and green materials are very particular; ”

Yu Yao couldn't help but be slightly stunned, this guy is not very old, and he still looks like a game fan, I didn't expect to be quite good!

"It's cheap or not, you quote a price and listen to it. ”

"If you want it sincerely, I'll give you a real number, eighty thousand!" the guy shook his split thumb and forefinger.

"It's too high. Yu Yao shook his head again and again.

"Then I'll hear you pay you back. The young man reached out and dragged a large ashtray in front of him, lowered his head and lit a cigarette, and did not let Yu Yao.

Yu Yao saw him smoking, so he ordered one himself. "You're smoking!" said the young man.

"Twenty thousand. Yu Yao, "I'll give you a real price too." ”

"This boss, I know that you are not a layman as soon as I look at you, you must know this thing, it is a bit boring to cut it like this. The boy smiled.

The two went back and forth, and the young man finally gave up to 60,000, but he refused to drop it anymore.

"By the way, I was startled by your cat just now, as if I saw a small jade pendant hanging around his neck; after it lay down, I squatted and looked at it, it was not ugly, it was not big, if it was 60,000 yuan to buy a pen holder, give it to me!"

The boy burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at?"

"That jade figure can hold ten pen holders, you said I would give it to you?"

Yu Yao was punctured, but he was not in a hurry or annoyed, and couldn't help laughing. It seems that there are masters everywhere, and if you want to pick up the leaks, you can't just run into good things, but you have to be clumsy by the owner.

"Brother, can you, a jade pendant hundreds of thousands of dollars big, just hang it on the cat's neck?"

"This is my old man's deal, how dare I interfere? He named this cat Fa Cai, and said that hanging this little jade man is just 'getting rich and meeting nobles'. ”

"Oh, this shop is Lingzun's?"

"He had just retired and was originally a gamer. It just so happened that I didn't have a job, so I put down a part of his collection and some of the goods. He will also come to inspect when he has time. ”

"Your eyesight isn't weak!"

"It's all taught by my old man. ”

Yu Yao thought to himself, this young man's old man seems to be a master.

While the two were chatting, Xiao Ying's mobile phone rang, and the owner of another store called, saying that a friend had brought something to the store.

Since this tube and the little jade man are both real prices, Yu Yao put them aside for the time being, said goodbye, and took a business card from the Dafengtang store before leaving.

Back in another owner's shop, Yu Yao and Xiao Ying saw a man in his sixties, tall and thoughtful.

On the counter, there is a gray-green delicate brocade box.

After greetings, the shopkeeper invited all three of them to sit down and introduced each other. The man in his sixties was surnamed Tao.

"I'm older than you, but collectors don't have to be polite, call me Lao Tao. In this market, my son also has a shop, and I can take you to see it later, as well as some of my old collections. ”

"Could it be Dafeng Hall?" asked Yu Yao without thinking.

"Huh, are you going to go shopping?"
