Chapter 59: Bidding Begins (2)
Later, during a lecture by the abbot, a Hu man who came to listen to the lecture saw this bead and looked at it without squinting. www.biquge.info For more than ten days, he always stared under the beads, and his heart did not have to be on listening to lectures.
The monk asked the Hu people, "Does the donor want to buy this jewel?" and the Hu people said, "If you can definitely sell it, I promise to pay a high price." ”
The monk's initial asking price was 1,000 guan, which gradually rose to 10,000 guan, and the Hu people all agreed. So it was set at 100,000 and the deal was sold.
After the Hu people bought this bead, they cut open the flesh on the leg, put the beads in the middle, and then immediately set off to return to China.
The monk soon reported the matter to Wu Zetian, who ordered to find this Hu man. A few days later, the messenger found the man and asked him where the jewel was, and he said that he had swallowed it in his stomach. The messenger tried to open his stomach and examine it, but he had no choice but to take the orb out of the flesh of his leg.
Wu Zetian summoned the Hu man and asked, "You spent a lot of money to buy this bead, what are you going to do with it?" The Hu man said: "There is a green mud park in a certain country in Xifan, and there are many pearl treasures in the park. But the mud was too deep to bring the treasure up. If you throw this bead of green mud into the berth, the silt will turn into water, and the treasures will be obtained. ”
Only then did Wu Zetian know that the green mud beads turned out to be so precious. ”
After Hang Wenxuan finished telling this story, I felt that I had grown in knowledge again, I really didn't expect that there would be such a wise story in a small antique, but it was incendiary, no wonder Ye Xingtong would pursue it so much.
If I had a lot of money, I might want to own one of these beads, it's amazing.
In the end, after several rounds of bidding, Ye Xingtong's side was auctioned at a price of 1.2 million.
This third item is the one that Hang Wenxuan looked at just now, and it is the same one I said fake.
The imperial jade seal made of ice type blue jade stone sculpture is indeed fine, the texture is clear, the green jade quality, and the dragon twister is fake, but unfortunately, no matter how much you love it, Hang Wenxuan didn't shoot it in the end, but that Song Zhe finally took it for 300,000.
In the end, it was finally time for the finale - the Song Dynasty court calligraphy and painting 'sitting alone in the courtyard to watch the flower dance'
This is the fan of Qing Hongyi's colored flowers, and the title is 'Sitting alone in the garden and watching the flower dance'.
No matter who it is, seeing such a beautiful fan painting, they all take a deep breath, such a boutique, the price must be expensive.
According to the story of Ban Jieyu's inscription poem fan in the Han Dynasty and the story of Wang Xizhi, a famous calligrapher in the Jin Dynasty, who sold a fan for the old woman, it shows that some fans have become works of art in the Han and Jin dynasties.
For a long time, fan painting has become a unique form in Chinese art.
In the Song Dynasty, the development of the handmade textile industry promoted the prosperity of the court fan, in addition to the quality of the fan has been improved, the shape is also increasingly diverse, such as round, bell-shaped, palace lamp-shaped, chicken-heart-shaped, etc., decorated with brocade edges, falling with tassels, and the fan surface is painted with landscapes, flowers and birds, characters or inscriptions.
The fan is not only a practical product to enjoy the coolness, but also an art form that people like to see, show their talents, and convey emotions.
According to the story of Ban Jieyu's inscription poem fan in the Han Dynasty and the famous calligrapher Wang Xizhi in the Jin Dynasty who sold the fan, it shows that the fan has become a work of art in the Han and Jin dynasties, and has the dual value of practicality and appreciation. Due to the age, the fan calligraphy and painting of the Han and Jin dynasties have not been handed down, but the fan and fan books of the Song people can still be seen.
Until the Ming Dynasty, the national strength was strong, the economy was prosperous, the cultural undertakings were booming, and the folding fan technique was widely spread. Regarding the age of the folding fan, one says that it was the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, one says that it was the Northern Song Dynasty, and some say that it was produced in the Ming Dynasty and was introduced from Japan and Goryeo.
It is worth mentioning that in terms of painting method, the technique of painting the folding fan surface is different from that of painting large and volume.
In order to facilitate the opening and closing of the fan, the fan surface is in the form of a semi-circular circle with a wide upper and lower narrowness, and if the fan is painted on it with the ring of the fan, there is no room for the lower half of the picture, and the lower half of the fan cannot be flattened when it is unfolded.
The fan paintings in this auction are different, the painting is exquisite and follows the special form of the fan composition, which is a perfect work.
The auction starts at a million, which is worth it, even for me as an outsider.
Antique lovers, how can they let it go, not to mention that those powerful people love vanity, so they can take pictures of thousands to see if they can do it.
Soon, Tang Man began to feel itchy, and she hurriedly shouted the price, "One and a half million." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she looked in my direction, and it was obvious that she was not looking at me, but at Ye Xingtong, and her gaze seemed to be demonstrating and seducing.
Long Batian also began to raise his cards to compete, "Two million." ”
He is the owner of an antique shop, so naturally he will not let go of such an opportunity, to be able to collect such a good calligraphy and painting, take a picture first, and in the future, he will be able to change hands at a good price.
Tang Man was very unhappy when he saw someone robbing him, so he followed Song Zhe beside him and began to be coquettish, looking at it from a distance, he felt that it was so immoral, she lowered her head and turned her ears, and her upper breasts were almost exposed.
"Two million eight hundred thousand. Song Zhe finally couldn't beat her demon bomb, and the whole person began to drool, and kissed Tang Man's face fiercely, I quickly lowered my head, and broke Lin Haoran's kid's face back, it was really disgusting.
"I really didn't expect this Tang Man to be so prodigal, which made an innocent boy like me embarrassed. Lin Haoran deliberately said to me while looking at my expression.
I glared at him with a hot face, "Aren't you serious?"
He only smiled and didn't answer, then turned his head and looked at the auction seriously.
At this time, Long Batian seemed to continue to chase the price, which made Tang Man angry and anxious, but he knew that he couldn't fight Long Batian, so he could only stare dryly.
Song Zhe began to sweat profusely, and he couldn't lose face in front of Tang Man, so he continued to chase the price.
Seeing that if he continues to chase like this, the thing will soon be photographed by Long Batian, not Tang Man.
I had no choice but to pull the corner of Hang Wenxuan's clothes, "Lord Hang, otherwise, let Mr. Long Batian stop bidding." ”
This voice is not big or small, and it just happened to be heard by Long Batian.
Long Batian and Hang Wenxuan looked at me puzzled, their eyes were very strange, but they turned their heads very much, and ordered someone to take down the bidding card in their hands.
Finally, this calligraphy and painting was photographed by Song Zhe at a price of five million.
Tang Man looked at us again with a victorious face, Ye Xingtong still looked at the auction with a calm face, and didn't look at her at all, but she hugged Song Zhe's waist a little angrily, and nugged her mouth, but finally didn't say anything.
