Chapter 100: Appreciation and Exchange Meeting

Huang Qifei got this string of prayer beads, and went back to check what the old man said about Xingyue Bodhi.

Xingyue Bodhi is the seed of yellow vine, which is characterized by high porcelain solidity, high resin content, and high oily content. After the seeds of yellow vine are polished, according to the density and oiliness of the "star", they are divided into ingot Bodhi seeds, golden toad Bodhi seeds, light-colored golden cicada Bodhi seeds and mani seeds.

Xingyue Bodhi is known as one of the four pearls, extremely simple and elegant, each bead surface is covered with uniform black spots, there is a concave circle in the middle, dense dots are the stars of the stars and moons, slightly larger pits are the moon, there is only one month, the middle is the first month, and it is not just the first moon. So this shape is like the stars supporting the moon, becoming the stars of the week, and the stars holding the moon, so it is called the stars and the moon Bodhi.

The Xingyue Bodhi bracelet on the market is not expensive, but it is much more expensive to play with his string.

However, whether it is expensive or not, Huang Qifei doesn't care very much, what he cares about is what the old man gave him.

"It's the best to play to this extent. Zhao Tianming said to him.

The firmness and density of the star and moon bodhi seeds. The quality of density determines the use of Xingyue Bodhi, and at the same time, it is seriously related to the beauty of the slurry opening in the future. A star and moon with a good density will be blessed by the years, and the jade texture will be presented when the plate is played in place, and the opening is fine and beautiful. The star and moon seeds with poor density open quickly, color quickly, break quickly, and throw fast!

The density of this string of stars and moon Bodhi prayer beads in front of me is obviously excellent, and the most difficult thing is that there is already a tendency to jade, which is very rare.

"It's still a bit different from your string. Huang Qifei said.

Although he didn't know about antiques, he also checked that Xingyue Bodhi was not as valuable as agarwood.

Zhao Tianming shook his head: "Just measured by money, maybe Xingyue Bodhi is not as valuable as agarwood." However, everyone's tastes are different, and their preferences are different. In the eyes of some people, agarwood is not as precious as Xingyue Bodhi. ”

What's more, this is not an ordinary Xingyue Bodhi, and the price is not much worse.

While chatting, the two hurried towards the Hewan Teahouse.

The so-called antique appreciation exchange meeting is actually just a gathering of some Tibetan friends in Mr. Zhang's own circle. These Tibetan friends are quite amateurs, and their professional knowledge is not very hard, and most of them often pay tuition fees.

Old man Zhang is the strongest in this group of people.

Not long after, Zhao Tianming and Huang Qifei came to Hewan Teahouse. This is an ancient building, most of the materials are wooden, hundreds of years old, today, it can be regarded as a cultural relics protection unit.

In the past, afternoon tea was also made here, and there were many regular customers.

Later, it was listed as a cultural relics protection unit, and this old building strictly prohibited fireworks, and only entertained tea guests for everyone to drink tea and gather.

"A pot of tea here is more expensive than going to a western restaurant for a meal. ”

Obviously, Huang Qifei has been to this place and knows the situation here. On the contrary, Zhao Tianming came for the first time, and he had no hobby of tea tasting.

"Let's go, go up to the third floor, the old man has arrived. Huang Qifei said again.

The teahouse has a total of five floors, and the top floor is not open now, and those who can go up to the fourth floor are all powerful. Even on the third floor, the location is not easy to book, and Mr. Zhang booked it two days in advance.

Upstairs, Huang Qifei took Zhao Tianming to a small private room, and there were three old people inside.

"Lao Zhao, this is Grandpa Zhang. Old man, he is Zhao Tianming. Huang Qifei introduced.

"Come, sit! The young man is very energetic! These two are like-minded Tibetan friends, Lao Chen and Lao Li, and they have been playing antiques for some years. Old man Zhang introduced again.

Next to him, there is a bald old man, that is, the old Chen that Old Man Zhang said. The other has black hair and a lot of knife-like wrinkles on his face.

Zhao Tianming saw that the black hair was actually dyed black. Among these people, perhaps the oldest is Lao Li.

"Hello three seniors! I'm really sorry for keeping you waiting!" Zhao Tianming hurriedly greeted.

Things gather by like, and people are grouped! A person with such a character as Mr. Zhang will naturally make no bad friends.

They waved their hands: "It's out of the way! And it's just that the three of us old men are more idle, so we just came early." There are still Lao Huang and Lao Niu who have not arrived. It is said that the old cow picked up a big leak yesterday and was about to see it. ”

The antique appreciation exchange meeting is actually four or five kittens and dogs, and it is just a small fight.

Among the few of them, Lao Zhang is the strongest, followed by Lao Niu, and the worst is Lao Huang. Lao Huang is an optimist, and he often pays tuition, but he has never been troubled. Of course, the fact that people are relatively wealthy is also one of the reasons.

The old cow is a big mouth! Every time he picks up a leak, the news can't be hidden the next day. Everyone else is wealthy, but he has to blow up a treasure to the whole world.

"What treasure?" Huang Qifei asked curiously.

Lao Chen and Lao Li both know that this guy is Lao Zhang's grandson-in-law, and he is completely an outsider.

Zhu Yunming's words. "Lao Chen heard about it.

Today, it is mainly to appreciate the calligraphy, after all, although Zhu Yunming's calligraphy is not as famous as the calligraphy saint Wang Xizhi, it also has a considerable status in ancient times.

"Zhu Yunming, Lao Zhao, who is that?" Huang Qifei couldn't remember this historical figure for a while.

Zhao Tianming said with a smile: "The Zhu Zhishan who is very familiar with Tang Bohu, you know? Tang Bohu's painting and Zhu Zhishan's characters are also known as the double masterpieces of the Ming Dynasty." ”

"The four great talents of Jiangnan?" Huang Qifei was surprised.

He doesn't understand the market, but he also knows Tang Bohu's name, which is as famous as Tang Bohu, and is known as Zhu Zhishan, one of the four great talents in Jiangnan in the Ming Dynasty, and his works are naturally extremely precious.

"That's right! It's him! His works are rarer than Tang Bohu's paintings. Old Man Zhang said.

Tang Bohu is very famous, and he is also the most famous of the four talents. However, his works are relatively large in existence, and sometimes they are not even as rare as Zhu Zhishan's characters.

Zhu Yunming is good at poetry and writing, especially calligraphy, famous in the sea, and Tang Yin are like-minded, and they are together.

He, along with Wen Zhengming and Wang Chong, was a representative of calligraphers in the middle of the Ming Dynasty. In the early years, the regular script was cautious, learning from Zhao Mengfu, Chu Suiliang, and from Europe, Yu and chased after the "two kings". Cursive master Li Yong, Huang Tingjian, Mi Fu, profound skills, especially heavy changes in his later years, wind and bones.

"Zhuzhishan's wild grass and regular script are the most famous. The wild grass comes from Huaisu and Zhang Xu, and is more close to the Yellow Valley, and the brushwork of lifting and turning is used interactively, and the distance between the lines is very tight, forming a kind of unbridled visual effect. What's even more rare is that the regular script is written quite rigorously, with the quaint atmosphere of the Jin and Tang dynasties. This contrasting comprehensive quality is very similar to Zhang Xu in the Tang Dynasty. Old man Zhang said.

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the private room was opened, and two old men walked in, which should be Lao Huang and Lao Niu.

These old people didn't come empty-handed, carrying their recent harvest and sharing it together, otherwise how could it be called an antique appreciation exchange meeting?
