Chapter 357: Ru Kiln Three-legged Brush Wash
"Oh, and the antiques you can't figure out? Don't you claim you're all fine here?
Then according to that, don't you think the ability of antiques is great, why do you want my eldest brother to go out of the horse?" Lu Ming said angrily.
"You...... You're a dead pervert. Fang Chen looked at Lu Ming angrily for a long time, stunned by what he said, and finally had nothing to say, so he forced such a sentence.
As soon as he heard that it was an antique, Zhao Ming was instantly a little excited, especially the antique introduced by Fang Chen, the quality must not be bad, maybe it would be a rare treasure in a hundred years.
"What kind of antique, you might as well show it to me, so that I can give you advice. Zhao Ming said excitedly.
"I want to take it out too, but the deal hasn't been done yet, and the antique isn't with me right now. Fang Chen shook his head helplessly, his expression a little lost.
"After talking for a long time, it turns out that the antiques are not in your hands, so what do you invite my eldest brother to taste for you?
Lu Ming couldn't help laughing, and almost squirted out the wine in his mouth.
Fang Chen rolled his eyes, ignored Lu Ming, and said to Zhao Ming intently, "Here's the thing, a few days ago, an old gentleman who claimed to be a descendant of He Shen came to me.
Said that he has an ancestral treasure in his hand, called Ruyao three-legged pen wash, I also checked the information and Shen before his death, really collected a treasure of the Song Dynasty, and it was called this name.
At that time, this treasure was worth 10,000 taels of silver, and if it was true, it would be a priceless treasure to this day.
It's a pity that I don't have any research on Ru kiln, and I can't tell the truth from the fake for a while, judging from his workmanship, it is indeed an antique, but whether it is a three-legged brush wash in Ru kiln I don't know.
So I didn't answer him at that time, but I made an appointment with him for three days and then I came to visit him personally and talk to him about it, and today is the three-day period. ”
After listening to Fang Chen, Zhao Ming probably understood, "What do you mean, you want me to go with you and help you see the authenticity of this Ru kiln." ”
"Gee, you're so smart, that's what I mean. Fang Chen said excitedly, "That gentleman has the habit of taking a nap, and he usually doesn't get up until two o'clock in the afternoon."
It just so happened that we would take a break after eating and then set off together for his house. ”
"You're so sure my big brother will help you. Lu Ming said faintly beside him, "I'll tell you, my eldest brother and I will be ready to go away after eating in a while, and you can go by yourself when the time comes." ”
Hearing this, Fang Chen was not alarmed, but said calmly, "I can see that Zhao Ming is also an antique person, how can he not be tempted when he hears the three-legged brush wash of Ruyao?"
"You're really wrong, it's just such a broken antique, my eldest brother is not rare, we have a lot of treasures there, so I don't care about such a small object with a pen. Lu Ming said unadmittedly.
At this time, Zhao Ming dismantled the stage in the back, "You can go back first after eating, and I will go to that gentleman's house with Fang Chen to have a look." ”
When Lu Ming said this, he instantly pulled his face down, "Isn't it, big brother, are you really going?"
Seeing Zhao Ming's firm face, Lu Ming had no choice but to say pitifully, "Then even if you go, you can't leave me behind, since this is the case, I also want to see and learn." ”
There is no way, I can't afford to keep stalking Lu Ming, and Zhao Ming has no choice but to take him with him, but Zhao Ming repeatedly told Lu Ming that after arriving at someone's house, he can't talk casually.
It wasn't until Lu Ming nodded in agreement that Zhao Ming agreed, Lu Ming originally thought that he was a descendant of He Shen, so he must be either rich or expensive.
After all, He Shen is a famous corrupt official in history, even if he is cut off by Jiaqing Ye later, then he will definitely leave some property to future generations.
But when a few people arrived at the gentleman's residence, Lu Ming was really surprised.
I thought he would live in a house like an ancient mansion, at least a big courtyard with a small garden.
No matter how low the grade is, it has to be with your Ruiyun Zhai, but depending on where he lives, how can it be similar to my family. After Lu Ming walked to the door, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Who said that Heshen's descendants must be rich, besides, if he didn't encounter financial difficulties, how could he be willing to sell me that three-legged pen wash like a kiln. ”
Fang Chen glanced at Lu Ming as he spoke, then walked straight forward, knocked on the door, and the person who opened the door saw that it was Fang Chen, and hurriedly and enthusiastically invited him in.
Zhao Ming and Lu Ming followed closely and also came to this house, although the house was simple, but the environment inside was very quiet and elegant.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see the green color, which gives you a pleasant feeling, and the front of the house is densely planted with bamboo, leaving only a small path in the middle that leads to the house in front.
Both sides of this path were planted with flowers and plants, and Zhao Ming could see that the owner of this house must be someone who knew how to garden, and he could still trim the flowers and plants so neatly.
When I walked to the door of the house, I heard the crisp sound of birds, and I saw several bird cages hanging under the eaves of the house, and inside each bird cage was a colorful parrot.
Looking at these scenes, Zhao Ming couldn't help but think of Liu Yuxi's "Burrow Ming", "Si is the Burrow, but Wu Dexin, the moss marks are green, and the grass is green." ”
"My grandfather is already waiting inside, you can just go in. The little girl who helped lead the way said briskly.
Fang Chen thanked him, and then entered the room with Zhao Ming and them, at this time the old man was sitting on the recliner by the window, listening to the play leisurely.
Although Zhao Ming has not studied opera, he can roughly hear that this is Shilang's mother in Peking Opera, which is a classic repertoire of Peking Opera.
As soon as the old man heard that someone was coming, he turned off the radio, walked out slowly and leisurely on crutches, and said enthusiastically.
"Mr. Fang is here, please take a seat, please take a seat, these two are your friends, right? ”
In order to show politeness, Zhao Ming nodded at the old man, and sat next to Fang Chen, so that he could help Fang Chen introduce antiques for a while.
As soon as Lu Ming arrived here, he forgot all about what he had promised Zhao Ming just now, walked over directly, sat next to the old man, and said, "And the old man, are you going to live a long life this year?"
When the old man heard this, he was stunned for an instant, and looked at Lu Ming with an embarrassed expression, but Lu Ming continued to say as if he couldn't see it.
"And the old man, you are the first descendant of the Qing Dynasty I have seen, you see my hands are sweating with excitement. ”
Zhao Ming saw that Lu Ming's more and more outrageous he said, so he hurriedly pulled him back, and at this time, Fang Chen next to him couldn't help but laugh and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? The old gentleman's surname is Lang, but his surname is He."
Don't change people's surnames. Saying that, Fang Chen gave the old man a salute again.
"Don't mind, old man, this friend of mine usually likes to tell jokes, you see I am afraid that our chat will be too embarrassing, so I specially brought him to liven up the atmosphere. ”
The old man laughed at this time, "It's okay, it's okay, young man, it's okay to be active, sit down." ”
Who knew that Lu Ming didn't give up at this time, and looked at Fang Chen with a puzzled expression, "Didn't you say that this old man is a descendant of He Shen?
The TV series is called with adults and adults, you think I don't know, then if this old man's surname is Lang.
How can he be a descendant of He Shen? The surnames are different, you are fooling me. ”
Zhao Ming was also full of black lines at this time, and bringing Lu Ming over was simply the most wrong decision he had made.
Even the old man was amused by Lu Ming, "Our ancestor and Shen's surname is Niu Hulu, and his full name is Niu Hulu and Shen, because in the Qing Dynasty, the name was not called the surname."
That's why it was called Lord He, but after the founding of New China, some of the clansmen of the Niu Hulu clan were surnamed Niu and some were surnamed Wolf.
Since then, there has been no surname Niu Hulu. The old man patiently explained to Lu Ming.
Zhao Ming originally thought that Lu Ming would stop here, but who knew that he had a new problem.
"This ...... I can understand the surname Niu, so why is the surname Lang? What does this have to do with Niu Hulu?"
"Hahaha...... You don't know this, because Niu Hulu is a Manchu language, which means wolf in Chinese, so later generations took its homonym as Lang and took it as a surname. ”
The old man continued to explain, smiling very kindly, "Young man, you still have to read more books in the future, study antiques, and know the past and the present." ”
Lu Ming was a little embarrassed by the old gentleman's words, so he walked to the back and sat down in his seat.
"Sir, let's ignore the little episode just now and move on to the antiques. Fang Chen quickly turned back to the topic.
The old gentleman nodded, holding a cane in one hand and a chair in the other, and then stood up slowly, Zhao Ming wanted to help the old gentleman, but the old gentleman refused.
I saw the old gentleman walk into the compartment behind him, took out a carefully wrapped small box from the cabinet, and then held the small box in his arms, and then walked back.
The old gentleman was a little reluctant, handed the box in his hand to Fang Chen, and then sat back in place, Fang Chen politely took the box, and then put it on the table between himself and Zhao Ming.
Zhao Ming gently opened the lid, picked up the Ruyao three-legged pen, looked at it carefully, and roughly measured the size of the appliance with his fingers.
The height is about 4 centimeters, the diameter is about 18 centimeters, the foot diameter is 17 centimeters, the straight mouth is flat, and there are three small feet supported below, which is almost the same size as the three-legged brush wash recorded in history.
The whole Ru kiln three-legged brush wash is made of green glaze, the glaze is full of fine fragments, the glaze is pale azure, soft and warm, so that the shape of the whole utensil appears simple and regular.
It's just that Zhao Ming touched the whole body of the porcelain, and didn't find any flaws, it stands to reason that the general porcelain has no flaws is a good thing, but this Ru kiln three-legged brush wash is different.
If there was no small bump, then this Ru kiln is likely to be a fake, because it is related to an incident that He Shen did at that time.
It is said that at that time, He Shen got not only one, but two three-legged pen washes, and this treasure was put at that time, and it was rare in the world.
There is no longer a third one in the world, and you said that after He Shen got such a treasure, he would definitely cherish it and collect it well.
But in fact, He Shen didn't do it, but after he got the treasure, he smashed one of them, and that one was the most flawless.
It can be seen from this incident that He Shen is very smart, but many people don't understand He Shen's approach and ask why this is?
And He Shen only replied one sentence, scarcity is expensive, after He Shen smashed this one, then there will be only one left in Ruyao three-legged pen wash from now on.
The one that survives will be more precious and its value will increase several times, becoming a rare and unique product in the world.
Although many people expressed pity, Zhao Ming understood that Heshen's approach had nothing perfect since ancient times, and because there were defects, it would cause others to regret it even more.
Regretting a thing will produce a cherishing mentality, and perfect things are generally easy to be ignored.
This is the reason why the price of antiques is rising now, because it is not easy to obtain, so it is more precious.
