"Wow, Mu Yu, you are bullying me in a different way. {Bubble.book.} bar. "Tang Feng had to move when he spoke.

"Don't make a fuss, you're in business. Lin Muyu said to Tang Feng: "Really, I looked at that thing and thought it was quite old, it should have a history of thousands of years, although it can't be a giant panda, it should also be at the level of a Chinese alligator." ”

Tang Feng said: "The more things that look like national treasures, the more fake they are, and you don't want to think about it, where did an old lady get a national treasure?" Although there are precious cultural relics handed down in all dynasties, when the dynasty is changed, a batch will always be taken away by the old dynasty, and a batch will be destroyed by the new dynasty, plus the large number that has been plundered in modern times, there is not much left. After the liberation, almost all the national treasure-level cultural relics were unearthed, after the reform and opening up, all parts of the country are building a lot of construction, the place that should be dug has basically been dug up, and the era of digging crops can dig out cultural relics is long gone. Formal unearthed cultural relics will only be less and less will not be more, if it is bought, it will be more unreliable, modern people, which will not have a little knowledge of antiques, but all an old thing will be carefully hidden and tucked, who will be stupid to take out and sell.

Lin Muyu didn't want to argue with Tang Feng about this issue, she said: "Okay, okay, I can't talk about you, you can see for yourself tomorrow." ”

Tang Feng nodded and said: "Anyway, it's not easy for people to come to Beijing all the way, I will definitely do my best, Chen Yan has already come to take over, let's go home." ”

Lin Muyu agreed: "Well, I know, I'll leave immediately." ”

The next morning, Tang Feng arrived in China, and soon after Shi, Lu Guang pointed to the gate and said to Tang Feng: "Boss, the main master is here." ”

Tang Fengshun looked out of the door, and after that, he couldn't help but sigh, who is clamoring for the national collection, it is clearly the ghost idea of tossing people, this old lady is white-haired and close to the snow in Saibei, her face is wrinkled and comparable to the Loess Plateau, she is seventy or eighty years old, and her legs and feet are not very flexible, she walks with a limp, and she has to be supported by juniors to walk. How to say this, they are so old, it's not good to take care of them at home, but they want to come out to make antiques, which are all harmed by the TV treasure appreciation column, and they all point to the family and take an old thing out to cover their children and grandchildren.

Said that the old man is really an old man, the old lady on the left side of her own hair is also white, a look at the age to understand, most of them are her sons, the young one on the left is also in his thirties, looking at the face should be the old lady's grandson, three generations of grandchildren, the whole family mobilized, together to play collect.

Tang Feng was thinking about it, the old man had already walked into the store, he hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, he said, "Grandma, do you have any antiques to identify?"

"Ahem, I'm looking for Tang Tangfeng ahem" This is really a sin, the old lady is not neat when she speaks.

"I'm Tang Feng, please come in. Tang Feng hurriedly invited the old lady to sit down on the sofa next to the coffee table, the old man's son was almost sixty years old, and he looked like a peasant who had been dealing with the land for many years, and the young man was a little more fashionable, and he was dressed well, a little more expensive than Tang Feng's body. The old lady's grandson said to Tang Feng: "The people in our family have persuaded my grandmother several times, but she must come to the old man's house, she is old, and she talks about this every day, and we have no choice but to trouble Mr. Tang." ”

Tang Feng hurriedly politely said, "Don't bother, don't bother, what's it, take it out and take a look." ”

At this moment, Tang Feng finally felt how outdated his previous backpack was, the old lady's and his son's backpack were exactly the same as his, and it was really not easy to buy them in Beijing. The old lady and her son took off the backpack and took out a plastic bag inside, which was layered on top of each other, and the innermost thing was still wrapped in many layers of newspapers, and the packaging looked very large, and finally the thing taken out was smaller than a volleyball.

"Keep an eye on the pillar and don't fall to the ground" Hey, the old lady remembers this stubble.

The old lady and his son's name is Zhuzi, Zhuzi held the thing to Tang Feng with both hands, Tang Feng was sure that he still refused to let go, and if he fell to the ground, he would not be a descendant, so he had to be careful. The pillar said, "Mr. Tang, this should be a bronze artifact." ”

Tang Feng nodded and said, "I'll take a look." At first, Tang Feng thought it was an ancient bronze vessel such as 卣, 斝, 罍, and Yao, but when he saw it, it was actually a hand warmer. The hand warmer is a metal hot water bottle, the ancients poured hot water into it, used to warm the bed, this thing was very popular in the countryside in the 80s, and later there were hot water bottles and electric blankets, this thing was eliminated.

The more ordinary things are, the more difficult it is to determine the generations, if you really want to trace what era and who invented the hand warmer, the group of people in the Chinese Academy of Sciences will not have to do anything else in this life.

The ornamentation of this hand warmer is very simple, there is no inscription, the outer ring of the water inlet and the handle is surrounded by a circle of paper inscriptions, and the body of the pot is also only a simple fish pattern, because the whole hand warmer is covered with different shades of mottled green patina, so the decoration looks very blurred. Although this hand warmer is similar to the modern hand warmer that has been discontinued, on the whole, the shape is quite solemn and calm, and it looks more beautiful and generous at a glance.

As far as this bronze hand warmer is concerned, it is not difficult to roughly determine the dynasty, and its handle is welded on, which is certainly not a bronze vessel from the Shang and Zhou dynasties. From the perspective of welding media, there are two main welding methods for bronze, one is to use low melting point metals such as lead and tin for welding, which is called small welding; Welding with a metal with a high melting point such as copper or silver is called large welding, and both large welding and small welding appeared after the Warring States period.

It is necessary to have a lid for the hand warmer, and the lid and the water inlet of the hand warmer are connected with a thread connection, and the thread connection can not be verified in what era, and it is generally believed to be a product after the modern industrial revolution. With the continuous improvement of smelting technology and the emergence of porcelain and lacquerware, bronze ware was gradually eliminated after the Qin and Han dynasties, and then a small amount of bronze ware appeared were brass, to the Ming and Qing dynasties, copper products became the world of brass, and later the Qing government issued a ban on copper, the production of bronze ware almost stagnated, and only the people were still producing a small amount.

This hand warmer is bronze but not a product of ancient times, Tang Feng can only think that this is a folk workshop product in the Republic of China, this is not those people who are deliberately producing bronze ware that has been eliminated, it is completely the reason why the smelting is not complete and the lead and tin impurities cannot be removed.

The old lady was very concerned about the value of this hand warmer, and she asked Tang Fengdao: "How is it, antique, which dynasty is it?"

Tang Feng felt helpless, and it was precisely because there were more and more people like himself that the collection began to be vulgarized. The value of antiques is more reflected in the cultural connotation and humanistic history, and the first thing that should be thought of is its connotation and the sense of historical inheritance. The artistic conception of "the people of today do not see the ancient times and the moon, and the moon once looked like the ancients" is the best interpretation of antiques, which is a medium, which narrows the distance between modern people and ancient people. And our media propaganda in this area has been misleading, they are over-exaggerating the monetary value of antiques, and TV treasure connoisseurs are using money - the most direct way to measure the value of antiques.

Tang Feng said to the old lady, "Grandma, do you like this thing?"

The old lady didn't understand what Tang Feng was talking about for a long time, and her son helped her answer Tang Feng and said, "I like it, my mother really likes it, and she is about to fall ill." "No, antiques are harming people, it makes an old lady forget to sleep and eat, and those who come all the way from the countryside in Hebei must come to Beijing for identification.

Tang Feng asked the old lady's grandson again, "Where did this thing come from?"

The old lady's grandson said: "This is my grandmother dug out of the ground a few years ago, and I didn't take it seriously at the time, and it was several years to stuff it under the bed. ”

Tang Feng said to the old lady's children and grandchildren very seriously: "This thing should be regarded as an antique, it is a copper daily necessities produced during the Republic of China, and it has a certain collection value, you can take it back and put it away." Daily necessities, a certain collection, put them well, although Tang Feng had already said it very tactfully, but the old man still did not give up after getting the answer through his son's "translation", she then asked: "You give me an estimate." ”

If Tang Feng wanted to see this kind of bronze in the antique market, he would throw it away at a glance, but after all, the old lady had to estimate the price of what he had taken. He said: "Now it is almost worth more than 20,000 yuan, and it can almost reach 100,000 yuan in ten or eight years." ”

After understanding Tang Feng's answer, the old lady suddenly became more than ten years younger, not to mention how happy she was, she said proudly: "I'm right, this thing is a lovely baby."

When Tang Feng was looking at the hand warmer here, Lin Muyu had already walked into the store, and the old lady thanked her happily after getting a satisfactory answer, and the 20,000 yuan thing was undoubtedly a treasure for an old lady in the countryside.

Lin Muyu and Tang Feng sent the old lady away together, and when they returned to the store, Tang Feng shook his head sharply, and he said, "I don't know how our Host Fan feels when he sees this?"

Lin Muyu said: "What can she think? It's a good thing that the show is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people." ”

Tang Feng said: "Forget it, isn't this a sin made by a TV show? ”

"Hey, Tang Feng, can that thing really be worth 20,000 yuan?" Lin Muyu was also concerned about this, Tang Feng said: "20,000 yuan must be an exaggeration, 200 yuan is about the same." ”

Lin Muyu asked Tang Fengdao, "Aren't you deliberately deceiving other people's old ladies?"

Tang Feng said: "That's why I said that it can rise to 100,000 in ten years and eight years, and the old lady's mind is all on this, I dare to say that it's not an antique, what if she knows the truth and can't come back in one breath? As long as it can make the old lady happy, lie and lie." ”

Lin Muyu said: "Then you should also tell the truth to his son, in case she finds you again in more than ten years, then what will you do?"

"The old lady's body is almost dying, and she will earn a year after a year, her children and grandchildren are willing to accompany her to Beijing, they must be filial sons and grandsons, and they should not sell the old lady's beloved things, as long as they don't sell them, what if they treat them as a treasure?"

Collecting is like practicing martial arts, no matter how good the martial arts practice is, it will go mad, and it is not a good thing to collect demons, isn't Chen Yan almost fooled? Zhao Yongshi, Jiang Yuan, and the old profiteer Jia Dewang are all the same, this kind of person is the easiest to be blind, and the demons in their hearts are born, and their behavior cannot be effectively controlled.

A few days later, the invitation letter from Christie's in Hong Kong was sent to China Stone, with this thing it is convenient to go through the procedures for going to Hong Kong, Tang Feng did everything without much effort, and when he went home at night, Tang Feng asked Lin Muyu and said: "I haven't figured it out yet, why don't you go to Hong Kong?"

Lin Muyu said: "You can't always let Brother Chen Yan watch the store alone, it's not a matter of worrying, but the business in the store has been very busy, and I really can't leave." ”

Tang Feng nodded and said, "That's it, there is still a month, and we can go to Hong Kong for a walk." ”

"Look at your beauty. Lin Muyu said to Tang Feng: "Didn't you say that you want to learn to drive? Why don't you sign up?"

Tang Feng said: "I'll go tomorrow, four wheels are faster than two legs." ”

In the next month, Tang Feng was busy in the store while learning to drive, coupled with the excitement of the Spring Festival, Tang Feng was almost spinning on a continuous axis, there were more things, life was naturally fulfilling, time was easy to mix, and in a blink of an eye, Tang Feng was going to Hong Kong.

Tang Feng, who booked a ticket to come to China Stone, Chen Yan came to tell him about business, with the hot sale of the Spring Festival season, the inventory of China Stone has been urgent, and Tang Feng still has something to do after returning from Hong Kong.

"Hey, this business is troublesome, and the business here is not finished yet, and the other side is coming. Tang Feng said helplessly: "Even if you explain it in this life." ”

Chen Yan said: "What can be done, once people get used to a certain mode of life, they will be unconsciously pushed forward by life, and they can't stop if they want to." In the future, the matter of the seal stone will be handed over to me, and the jade matter will be handled by you, and the affairs of the store will depend on Mu Yu. ”

Tang Feng smiled and said: "It's also a good thing to be pushed by life, it's much better than being dragged by life, so let's do it." ”

Chen Yan remembered another thing, he said: "Jiangyuan and they are preparing to open a branch again, I heard that it is in this Xidan business circle. ”

"That's not really good news. Tang Feng frowned, and he said: "Jiang Yuan is a tiger, this tiger is nothing, but there is a wolf behind him." ”
