Chapter 586: Kang Ding Fang Yi

……

"Ming Dynasty small leaf red sandalwood carving 'Seven Sages of the Bamboo Forest' desk, if Mr. Wang likes it, I can give it to you!" After noticing Wang Zheng's eyes, Liu Wuye smiled.

"Really?"

"Of course!"

"In that case, then thank you for the generosity of the fifth master!"

Although this is not a bargain. But when you have money to spare and come across a good antique, you can buy it.

"Hehe, this is nothing!" Liu Wuye waved his hand, "The things I recommend to Mr. Wang this time are much more valuable than this Nanmu desk." ”

"Oh, then I can't wait!"

"Wait a minute!" When the words fell, Liu Wuye raised his voice, "Steward Pang?"

"Sir!"

Originally, following Liu Wuye, an old man with gray hair hurriedly took two steps forward and stood up.

"Take out what I prepared for Mr. Wang!"

"Yes!"

Steward Pang, who agreed, found three servants from the side. Three boxes of different sizes were taken from different positions on the Bogu shelf and placed on the long table against the wall on the south side.

"Please!"

"Please!"

After greeting each other, the two walked to the side of the long case together. Then, Liu Wuye reached out and took the nearest red and yellow cardboard box.

After opening this cardboard box the size of a middle school textbook with a thickness of nearly 20 centimeters, a golden statue appeared in front of Wang Zheng in the red silk cloth.

"Please Mr. Wang to taste!"

Wang Zheng nodded. Took the Buddha statue out of the cardboard box. The height of the whole Buddha statue is about 30 centimeters, and the width of the base is about 20 centimeters. From the image point of view, this is a bronze gilt Vajrasattva seated statue. In addition, the Buddha statue has a dignified face, a slight smile, and delicate lips. Wearing a five-leaf crown and bunding the Bodhisattva's hair. Upper body, slender waist, three-fold twisted posture, beautiful posture. The jewels, rings, and earrings on the body are delicate and complete, showing a very high casting skill.

As soon as you look at the bottom width, the six words "Daming Yongle Nianshi" come into view. These six words also confirmed Wang Zheng's guess in his heart.

After holding the Buddha statue in his hand and playing with it, Wang Zheng put it down.

"How?"

"The craftsmanship of the Ming Dynasty royal is naturally a good thing! But I'm more curious, if the fifth master makes a move, what price do you plan to sell?"

"4.5 million!"

Wang Zheng nodded.

The price of 4.5 million yuan can only be regarded as an ordinary piece of fine art in a Buddhist statue in the Ming Dynasty, not too expensive, and certainly not cheap.

"I want it!"

Liu Wuye smiled, "Don't worry, how about Mr. Wang take a look at this again?"

After the words fell, he put a nearly square, but larger and thicker cardboard box next to him in front of Wang Zheng.

After opening it with curiosity, the thing in it made Wang Zheng's pupils shrink instantly. After looking at it for a while, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Wang, don't worry. This one I took out is not a 'pit item'!"

"Fifth Master, don't blame me for being cautious. At present, the trade in bronzes is strictly regulated by the state. I don't want to stumble and stay in the game. ”

"Mr. Wang is serious. Don't say that this 'Fang Yi' is not a pit goods. Even if it's a pitfall, with Mr. Wang's current status in the business world, how much can this little thing hinder you!" Liu Wuye smiled.

"The fifth master looks down on me. And, don't forget. China is not the United States, and the status of the official master here is much higher than that of us capitalists!"

"That's right! Besides, I heard a joke the other day that wasn't a joke. Say: Americans always envy us China that we can put our billionaires in prison at any time; while Chinese envy Americans who can remove their officials from office at any time. ”

"That's why so many rich people always want to emigrate!" Wang Zheng said.

"What about Mr. Wang?"

"Me?" Wang Zheng smiled and did not answer. Instead, he reached out and picked up Fang Yi in the box.

Seeing him like this, Liu Wuye wisely did not ask any more questions.

China's bronze civilization is the top in the world, and the pre-Qin bronzes represented by the bell of Zeng Hou Yi and Simu Wu Dafang Ding are masterpieces in the history of world art. Although this Fang Yi in Wang Zheng's hand is not as good as those top pre-Qin bronze masterpieces. However, its shape is burly, the physique is heavy, the mouth is bulging, and the dragon pattern, leaf pattern and cloud thunder pattern all around the body cooperate with each other, so that this Fang Yi of the Shang Dynasty looks not only the usual heaviness of the Shang Dynasty bronzes, but also the magnificence of the Zhou Dynasty bronzes.

If there is a disadvantage, it is that the body size is not too large, and the height is only about 13 cm. Moreover, there are not many inscriptions inside, only three, which means 'mother Kangding'! Therefore, this bronze Fang Yi is also called Kangding Fang Yi!

After carefully examining Kang Ding Fang Yi, Wang Zheng found that the pulp on its body was quite thick, and the rust in many places had been touched, and there was an extra layer of ancient traces of the color of Buddhist scriptures. This is the texture peculiar to copper.

After confirming that this layer of pulp was not made, but real, Wang Zheng nodded.

"How much does the fifth master plan to sell for this 'Kangding Fangyi'?"

"Mr. Wang likes it?"

"Of course, although I am interested in collecting any antique art, my favorite among them are bronzes and calligraphy and paintings! Wang Zheng said.

Modern bronzes, apart from being collected by museums, are very few that can be circulated on the market. There are even fewer such drum-bellied squares.

"Since Mr. Wang is so interested, then I won't ask you more, how about 10 million?"

"Ten million?" After a little hesitation, Wang Zheng nodded, the price is not too high, "Ten million is ten million, I want it!"

"Mr. Wang is really refreshing!"

Wang Zheng smiled, with his current net worth, this money is really nothing.

"With the previous two good things as a foundation, I am more interested in the third antique in the hands of the fifth master. ”

"Haha, I can guarantee that Mr. Wang will definitely love my third thing if he sees it. ”

Looking at Liu Wuye's confident appearance, Wang Zheng's appetite was also suspended.

"I can't wait!"

"Hehe, come slowly, come slowly!" As he spoke, Liu Wuye took the last long carton. After opening it, a red cloth bag was tied with a red strip of cloth on the bright yellow interlining.

After Liu Wuye untied the seal, took out the red cloth bag, and untied the tie at one end, he carefully pulled out a rather old scroll from the cloth bag.

Although Wang Zheng still doesn't know the specific content of this scroll, just from Liu Wuye's way of being several times more careful than when he took the previous two antiques, you can understand the extraordinary nature of this scroll.

With a wave of his hand, Steward Pang, who was standing on the side, immediately cleaned up all the debris on the long case. Then Liu Wuye put the scroll on the table and uncovered the red rope on it. Hold one side with your left hand and slowly push your right hand outward. The painting heart that has turned yellow, and there are some traces of insect moth, is presented in Wang Zheng's eyes.

But compared to these, he was completely attracted by what was presented in this painting.

"It's... This is the Yuan Dynasty court painter Wang Zhenpeng's "Picture Scroll of Scenery of the Mountains and Rivers"?" Wang Zheng said in an excited tone.

Liu Wuye smiled quite smugly.

That's right, this is the Yuan Dynasty court painter Wang Zhenpeng's "Picture Scroll of Rivers and Mountains". In the 2012 Poly Spring Auction, Liu bought it for 101.2 million Huaxia coins!"

"Looking at it now, Liu Wuye really picked up a big leak at that time!" Wang Zheng said enviously.

Although he had just swallowed the 'Jianfu Palace Treasure', Wang Zheng was feasted all at once. But calligraphy and painting are different from others, each one is a unique work of art, each one has its value, and each one is irreplaceable.

Moreover, this Yuan Dynasty court painter Wang Zhenpeng's "Picture Scroll of Scenery of Rivers and Mountains" is not only a masterpiece of 48.7 cm × 950 cm, but also a masterpiece of documentary style painting that can be compared with Zhang Zeduan's "Qingming Riverside Picture" in the Northern Song Dynasty. It reproduces the real life scenes in the Wenzhou area of the Yuan Dynasty.

The volume depicts Tiantai Mountain, Yandang Mountain, Yongjia City, Ruian City, Oujiang River, Feiyun River, Shengshou Temple, Baotan Temple and Donghai. As well as 1,607 Mongolian and Han characters, 494 buildings and several towers and bridges, 68 boats, 108 livestock and 87 birds, it is not only an "encyclopedia" for studying the local social politics of the Yuan Dynasty, but also an important image for the study of the encyclopedia of painting in the Yuan Dynasty, which has extremely high historical and cultural value.

If it weren't for the fact that this painting was lost for half a century due to the 'Little White House Turmoil', and it was not until 2002 that the Forbidden City held the 'Exhibition of Chinese Paintings and Calligraphy from the Collection of the Belgian Ullens and His Wife', perhaps it would have become one of the top ten famous paintings in China, just like Zhang Zeduan's "Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival".

The more he admired this monumental work, which had been included in "The Treasure of the Stone Canal", the more urgent Wang Zheng's desire to obtain it became.

"Fifth master, I want this painting, can you make a price?" Wang Zheng immediately decided.

Hearing that he was inevitably a little urgent, Liu Wuye showed a meaningful smile on his face.

"Since Mr. Wang likes this painting so much, it doesn't hurt to sell it to you. Moreover, I will not ask Mr. Wang for a high price, as long as you answer me honestly and answer a question!"

Wang Zheng's eyes narrowed, and his mind quickly calmed down. After nearly two years of hard work in the shopping mall, he is no longer the hairy boy who was anxious when he encountered trouble.

"If the fifth master has anything to say, just ask, I know everything in the next place, and I can't say anything!"

"Hehe, that's the best!"

As he spoke, Liu Wuye raised his right hand, and Steward Pang on the side quickly took out the photo that had been prepared a long time ago and put it in his hand.

"I don't know if Mr. Wang knows this person?"

Wang Zheng took it and took a look, and the photo was the image of Ma San. However, this situation had been expected in advance when he came. So Wang Zheng's expression didn't look too surprised.
