"What's the matter?, do you have a different point of view?" Huo Xiaodong asked with a grin. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Why do you say that people's hearts are not ancient!" Sun Zhongyuan deliberately put on a posture of hating iron but not steel.

With Wen Zhengming's identity, it makes no sense to pretend to be a servant in front of a child.

If Wen Zhengming didn't do this, he could only drive the child away, so the child would have to go back to Zhu Lang. After looking for it, Xiao Tong told Zhu Lang about it, no matter how thick-skinned Zhu Lang was, he probably couldn't hold it and wouldn't sell paintings. This little boy will definitely be scolded by his master when he goes back, empty-handed.

Wen Zhengming worked hard for himself and made it convenient for others, and was the Lei Feng of the Ming Dynasty calligraphy and painting industry. Judging from various historical materials, he is indeed a very virtuous person, unlike Dong Qichang, another great painter in the Ming Dynasty, who was very discredited, and also made a "people copying Dong Eun" incident.

Huo Xiaodong was actually half-joking. Subsequently, the two chatted for a while on the album, Huo Xiaodong was most concerned about how much the porcelain finale kiln lid jar could be auctioned, and it was said that there was half of him!

When I came out, there was no one in the office, and the preview was all set up in the morning, and in the afternoon, all departments got off work early, waiting to go to the site tomorrow. Huo Xiaodong had already received the documents on the scene for Sun Zhongyuan, and the worksheet of the porcelain department also gave Sun Zhongyuan a copy.

The two were about to go back to their respective homes, but Sun Zhongyuan received a call from Lao Jin.

Since Lao Jin met Sun Zhongyuan in the antique market, he introduced Mr. Cai's Xizhou Yucong last time and made a lot of money, and he is particularly interested in Sun Zhongyuan.

"Mr. Sun, what are you busy with?"

"Lao Jin, do you want to introduce the seller again?" Sun Zhongyuan said with a smile.

"This time I received good things, and I was the first to think of you!" Lao Jin smiled dryly, "But I don't understand this thing." ”

Sun Zhongyuan said, "It can't be that others are not optimistic about me, right?"

"No, no, after receiving it, there was an old customer who happened to see it, but he didn't like copperware. ”

"Bronze, what?"

"It's a pair of paperweights, green lions and white elephants. ”

"Bronze and blue?"

"You're kidding, I'm not here to say it, it's a bronze lion and a bronze elephant, but the image should be the mounts of the two Bodhisattvas of Manjushri and Puxian. ”

Sun Zhongyuan thought about it, this paperweight is really rare to use this theme to make a pair, "Is the copper pure?

"Yes, I think it's quite pure, and the base is embedded with silver wire. ”

As soon as Sun Zhongyuan heard this, he immediately said, "Okay, where are you, I'll take a look!"

"I'm in the Dongfeng Hotel near Eagle Mountain, I'll tell you the address, come here!"

"I've heard of the hotel market, okay. ”

This hotel market is also a feature near the Eagle Mountain Antique Market in Nancheng. Many antique dealers in Dongshan Province, from other places, also like to go to Nancheng to do business, the provincial capital.

However, sometimes they come with things, and they may not all be sold on a weekend, but the stalls are not allowed on weekends, and these people have no stores. At the same time, many people go to the countryside to pull goods, if there is no good source of goods, it is okay to go back to their hometown, so they will live in a small hotel nearby.

Over time, some veteran players would sometimes come to these small hotels to look at things and buy things, and gradually many players did the same.

Later, some sellers couldn't occupy a good stall location, so they simply lived in a small hotel and waited for players to come to the door.

Among them, the most famous and antique dealer is the Dongfeng Hotel. In this Dongfeng hostel, the room is a basement and is cheap.

Moreover, there are two long corridors in the Dongfeng Hotel, when there is nothing to do, the seller's door is open, and the buyers who come here, along the corridor, look into the open door, who has antiques, just go in and see.

Lao Jin has been living in the Dongfeng Hotel for the past two days, in fact, his home is in the southern suburbs of the county, not far back. However, a few days ago, he was tired of being with a good friend from out of town for a few days, and now this good friend is gone, and the prepayment fee is still two days away.

Dozens of dollars, he didn't return it. First, I don't really want to go home, and secondly, I am taking the opportunity to see other people's goods here, and it's cool to talk nonsense with these people who pull the township.

The copper paperweight of this pair of green lions and white elephants was brought by a villager. The man was the master of wood, and he didn't know much about bronze, and he received it by accident. Moreover, the day before yesterday, he heard that there was something going on in his hometown, so he hurried back. Lao Jin was collected for 2,000 yuan.

This pair of paperweights has pulp, and it is copper, and it is not expensive to buy it for two thousand. Of course, Lao Jin has a low income, but he wants to make more.

Sun Zhong turned out that Huo Xiaodong also knew Lao Jin and came with him.

Lao Jin invited them into the room, closed the door, dragged out a woven bag from under the bed, took out a shoe box, and took out two balls of things wrapped in newspapers.

Peeling off the newspaper, it is indeed a pair of copper paperweights, a lion and an elephant. The volume is not large, about ten centimeters high, more than ten centimeters long, and the square base is cast below. Heavy to start with, it should be solid.

Not to mention anything else, just looking at this copper, Sun Zhongyuan was attracted.

The smelting of copper has a long history in China, and in antiques, bronze, brass, and copper (red copper, pure copper) are available.

If you want to say the best, I am afraid it must be the wind-ground copper used to make the Xuande furnace. During the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, the copper paid tribute by Siam (Thailand) was smelted through more than a dozen processes, and the wind-ground copper finally achieved was the pinnacle of copper in Chinese history.

This pair of paperweights is made of exquisite copper and coagulated pulp. This copper color is not comparable to the Xuande furnace, because the air-ground copper of the Xuande furnace is said to have added gold. However, there is a sense of ease and distance,

The shape of the green lion and the white elephant is also dignified and atmospheric, and it seems that it is indeed according to the mounts of the two Bodhisattvas of Manjushri and Puxian. This pair of copper paperweights is cast, but the details are unambiguous, the tail hair of the lion, the folds of the elephant's trunk, are all meticulous and vivid.

At the same time, on the base of the two paperweights, silver wires are inlaid, specifically silver wires.

On the base of the green lion is: Yuanhui Laosuo. On the base of the white elephant is: solemn pure stone.

To inlay this silver wire into the copper, you have to pick the groove first, and then inlay the silver, to be smooth and smooth, it is not easy. This silver filigree, inlaid as one, can be called perfect. This silver filament has been oxidized and discolored, but it also happens to reveal a kind of simplicity.

Absolute master!

Sun Zhongyuan sighed secretly and asked Lao Jin, "Is there anything you don't understand?"

Lao Jin said, "I don't understand why the payment hasn't been made." ”

This pair of copper paperweights is by no means the handwriting of ordinary people, and it is also a thing in the study, it is said that if you are a little famous, you should be able to pay for it. Of course, if you don't have a payment, you don't have it, and you can't understand it, and the point of Lao Jin's words is: This is a good thing! This is a valuable thing!

Sun Zhongyuan lit a cigarette and asked slowly, "Then do you understand the year?"
