Chapter 11: Digging the Old Mansion (3)

After Lin Muyu wrote something in the small notebook, he tugged at Tang Feng's sleeve and asked softly, "Hey, it's really fake?"

Tang Feng turned his head and whispered in her ear, "It's hard to distinguish this thing, but it's definitely an old mahogany." ”

Lin Muyu then asked, "What is the old mahogany?"

"You really don't understand anything at all?" Tang Feng thought that Lin Muyu was somewhat basic, and he said: "Boss, I can't explain to you like this, let's ask later." "Mahogany is not a type of wood, but a collective term for rare hardwoods, which are divided into 5 genera and 8 categories according to national standards. The best ones are huanghuali and red sandalwood, followed by black sour branches, black ebony, red sour branches, and then yellow sour branches, white sour branches, etc., for a total of six grades.

Lin Muyu quietly laughed: "Don't play tricks later." ”

Chen Yan leaned over and asked Tang Feng and asked, "How is it?"

Tang Feng shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. ”

Uncle Feng came over with a thick family tree, he was old, and his legs and feet were inevitably unstable, Tang Feng saw that his hands were a little trembling, and hurriedly went over to help him. Uncle Feng laughed a little, and he said, "Don't worry, although the old man's legs and feet are a little disobedient, his body is still okay." ”

When Tang Feng took over the family tree, several other people came over.

Before the Song Dynasty, only the princes, generals, and eunuchs were qualified to repair the genealogy of the family, and the folk genealogy began in the Song Dynasty and was really popular among the people in the Ming Dynasty. The genealogical record of the Feng family is to the effect that the Nanjing Feng clan was a branch of the Feng clan in Nanchang, Jiangxi, and one of the Nanjing Feng clans moved to Beijing in the seventh year of Yongle. In addition to recording Zeng Xuan, the descendant of Uncle Feng's ancestor, the genealogy also records the major events of the family.

But when Tang Feng saw a few lines at the end of the title page, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and it read: In the seventh year of Yongle, the ancestral house was built, and the table of eight immortals was placed to worship the ancestors.

It turned out that the Feng family's eight-immortal table was used to place the incense burner to worship the ancestors, so it became a record of family events. Although it is not explicitly stated that it is this Eight Immortals Table, it at least proves that the Feng family did have a Eight Immortals Table in the Ming Dynasty. As long as it is proved that this table of eight immortals is the one recorded in the family tree, then the chance of being huanghuali or rosewood will be greatly increased, and Tang Feng judged from the wooden pattern that this should be rosewood.

"Uncle, how much are you going to sell for this set of tables and chairs? Zhao Yongshi tried his best to pretend to be a must-have or a no-no-no.

Although Jiang Yuan is like an upstart, his heart is very fine, and he said to Tang Feng with a smile: "Brother, show me." ”

Tang Feng handed over the genealogy in his hand to Jiang Yuan, and came to the Eight Immortals Table by himself, he touched the table, then took out a coin and knocked it on the table, and finally he simply squatted under the table.

"How is it?" Lin Muyu couldn't squat down because of the restrictions of the miniskirt, so he had to bend down and ask Tang Feng.

Uncle Feng said to Zhao Yongshi: "Two years ago, someone gave 12,000, and I won't take more, just 15,000." ”

"Okay, just ......" Before Zhao Yongshi finished speaking, Jiang Yuan pulled him over, and he said: "Uncle, I won't hide it from you, if it's red sandalwood, it doesn't matter if I pay 100,000 yuan, but you, it's red sandalwood from the Republic of China, and it can't be sold so high." ”

Uncle Feng turned to Chen Yan and asked, "Second boy, what is the market price of red sandalwood?"

"Old man. Chen Yan said: "Everyone is an old neighbor, I don't hide it from you, this red sandalwood has been used for more than a hundred years, and it can't be passed down from generation to generation like red sandalwood, and the price is only seven or eight thousand." Tang Feng nodded, Chen Yan is still reliable in his words.

Uncle Feng nodded and said, "Well, I still believe what the second boy says." ”

Chen Yan turned to look at Jiang Yuan and asked, "Why is Brother Jiang so sure?"

"The genealogy of the old man's family records that on the seventh day of the first month of the third year of the Republic of China, there was no one at home, and the furniture was burned because the neighbor was walking in the water. Jiang Yuan continued: "It was not completely repaired until the following year. "Being able to become a rich man naturally has something extraordinary, Jiang Yuan is far more careful than Zhao Yongshi, and knows how to continue to look at the family tree.

Uncle Feng coughed lightly twice and said, "Don't you just want to know when this Eight Immortals Table is? Ask me earlier, I'm not a professional antique dealer, how can I be a demon moth with you." ”

"Uncle is real. Lin Muyu smiled and said to Uncle Feng: "It's not like some people~~"

"Haha. Uncle Feng said: "Don't praise me, there is nothing to keep secret, my father once said that this Eight Immortals Table was rebuilt after the fire." ”

"Can it be less?" As soon as Zhao Yongshi's words came out, Lin Muyu glared at him fiercely, bargaining with a seventy-year-old man, this person is too bad.

Uncle Feng sighed and said, "It's not that I don't want to be less, the things left by my ancestors are somewhat emotional, and I don't really want to sell them in my heart." ”

What he means is that he refuses to sell it if it is fifteen thousand less, if it is red sandalwood, he will definitely lose money if he buys it for fifteen thousand, doing business is not charity, and even rich people like Jiang Yuan do not want to do this kind of loss-making business.

"Are you sure you don't?" Tang Feng suddenly said.

Lin Muyu's eyes lit up, and this person made a new discovery.

Liu Shunan, who had not spoken, said: "If Brother Tang wants it, of course we won't rob you." At this moment, Jiang Yuan and Zhao Yongshi have remained silent.

Chen Yan immediately asked Tang Fengdao, "Brother Tang has made any new discoveries?"

How could Tang Feng tell what he had discovered, he shook his head and said, "Nothing has been discovered." Then he turned to Uncle Feng and said, "Uncle, I want this table of eight immortals for fifteen thousand." ”

"I'll give 20,000!"

- It was Jiang Yuan who spoke! This guy didn't want it just now, and now he sees that Tang Feng wants it, and he wants it.

Tang Feng looked at Jiang Yuan strangely and asked, "Brother Jiang, what do you mean by this?"

Jiang Yuan walked up to Tang Feng and said softly: "After all, this is my friend who took a fancy to him first, and I also ask Brother Tang to make it convenient." ”

"Hey, Mr. Lin!" Lin Muyu walked over and said dissatisfiedly: "Your friend asked for it just now, but you didn't let you ask for it, you didn't want it, Tang Feng only asked for it, and he also asked you, but you didn't speak." ”

Chen Yan came here and said, "Tang Feng, are you still bidding?" Seeing Lin Muyu's eyes staring at him, Chen Yan said: "Don't get me wrong, I also hope that Uncle Feng can sell it for a good price." ”

Tang Feng nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, then the one with the highest price will get it, and I will pay 30,000!"

Zhao Yongshi smiled and said, "I know what you mean, I'll do this kind of thing, thirty-five thousand." "Since they all hope that Uncle Feng can buy a good price, then this kind of robbery can also be noble and shameless.

Tang Feng smiled slightly and said, "Since Brother Zhao is so sincere, then I don't want it, I'll go out first to breathe." After speaking, Tang Feng turned around and walked out of the hall.

As soon as Tang Feng arrived in the courtyard, Lin Muyu also walked out, and she said: "Hey, why don't you continue to increase the price?" Even if you let them snatch it, at least let them pay more money, even if you don't have money with you, I can lend it to you, I will be angry when I look at them." ”

Tang Feng asked, "Hey, did he chase you? You don't like it and don't need to do this, right?"

"Don't talk about that. Lin Muyu said: "They openly robbed your business and bought the set of rosewood Eight Immortal tables, aren't you angry?"

Tang Feng asked strangely, "Who said it was rosewood?"
