Chapter 43: A Big Leak
With the idea of repairing that treasure, Shen Fu's heart became a little more impatient.
He really wanted to visit Cai Fang's father immediately, but the effect of Jianzhenyan still had forty or fifty minutes, and it would be too wasteful if he rushed over now.
Shen Fu had no choice but to suppress the excitement in his heart, and prepared to wander around these stalls for fifty minutes to see if he could pick up the leak.
At that moment, Shen Fu was chatting with Cai Fang about stray dogs, and at the same time, he used his true eye to inspect Cai Fang's stall.
It's a pity that most of the things on Cai Fang's stall are root carvings, and the craftsmanship level is not bad, but they are not treasures, let alone antiques, and the oldest root carving was only completed twenty years ago.
"It's not easy to pick up the leaks in this antique market." Shen Fu sighed in his heart.
This is not the first decade of the last century, in the antique industry, the number of fakes is far from so much, and many antique dealers are not very knowledgeable, but there are often things that people pick up.
Nowadays, fakes are rampant in the antique industry, and antique dealers are also very shrewd, if there is a real thing, most of them are recognized by them, how can it be left for others to pick up.
However, when Shen Fu's eyes looked at a wood carving in Cai Fang's hand, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The wood carving in Cai Fang's hand is a recumbent little monk shape, the base is rectangular, and the surface looks exquisite, not much different from other root carvings on the stall.
However, Shen Fu saw the true eye and found that the wood carving of the little monk in the lying posture was very mysterious.
Inside the base of the wood carving, there is a piece of ancient jade!
In an instant, under the observation of Jianzhen's eyes, the ups and downs that the little monk wood carving in the lying posture had experienced over the past few decades clearly appeared in Shen Fu's mind.
"This wood carving was made thirty-six years ago."
"Twenty-nine years ago, someone took out the base with exquisite craftsmanship, stuffed a piece of Western Han topaz with a hook, and then closed the base and pressed it into a wooden box."
"Two years ago, this wood carving of a little monk in a recumbent position was bought with a box and left to Cai Fang's house to be placed with other wood carvings."
"The day before yesterday, Cai Fang found the pile of wood carvings from his home and took them out to set up a stall."
"In the past two days, seven people have touched this wood carving, but in the end they did not buy it."
After Shen Fu quickly sifted through this information in his mind, he was finally pleasantly surprised-
I'm going to pick it up.
Moreover, it's still a big leak!
He knew that among the ancient jades, Han jade was the most valuable.
The belt hook, which originated in the Western Zhou Dynasty, was the hook of the belt worn by the ancient nobles and literati warriors, which belonged to the status symbol and was popular in the Warring and Han dynasties.
The piece of Western Han Dynasty topaz with hook hidden in the wood carving base, the jade color is superior, the color is perfect, and it is carved from the whole material, which is extremely rare.
Even if Shen Fu had only read books, had no theories, and had no practice, he could be sure that the market price of this piece of topaz with hook was at least several million.
If it is put on auction, it may even fetch tens of millions of sky-high prices!
At that moment, Shen Fu forcibly calmed the feelings in his heart, and said to Cai Fang: "Brother Fang, can you show me the little monk wood carving in your hand?" ”
Cai Fang raised his head, handed the wood carving to Shen Fu, and said with a smile: "You like this thing too?" ”
"I won't tell you the joke, I saw some treasures collected by Brother Li some time ago, and I'm quite interested in these things." Shen Fu replied with a smile and took the wood carving quietly.
Then, he took the wood carving in his hand and played with it.
"The craftsmanship of this thing is not bad, it looks like it has been around for decades." Li Chenggong came up and looked at it and commented on Shen Fu.
"Brother Li, do you think it's good?"
Shen Fu asked, then turned to Cai Fang and said, "Brother Fang, how much is this thing?" ”
"Do you really want it?" Cai Fang asked in surprise.
Shen Fu nodded: "Of course, Brother Li has collected a lot of treasures, and he said that it was good, so it will definitely not be a loss of face to buy it." ”
When Li Chenggong heard this, he hurriedly said: "Brother, I just said this in passing, but I didn't let you buy it." ”
He was a little speechless in his heart, this Shen Fu elder brother, although he has extraordinary abilities, is too young after all.
Even if you really like it, you can't show it in front of the buyer, otherwise it's not obvious that people will be slaughtered?
"It's okay, this thing fits me perfectly, I want to buy it."
Shen Fu said, looking at Cai Fang again.
"This thing doesn't sell." Cai Fang said with a smile.
Shen Fu was dumbfounded, there are good things in this wood carving, but if Cai Fang doesn't sell it, no matter how good that thing is, it won't be his.
At this time, Cai Fang said again: "If you like it, I will give it to you, something less than 1,000 yuan, although something happened to my family, I can still afford to give it away." ”
Shen Fu breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that Cai Fang was joking with him.
At this time, I heard Cai Fang say again: "Shen Fu, the base of this wood carving is a little broken, or you pick another one, I will give it to you for nothing, but you have to say okay, only one is allowed." ”
Shen Fu's heart jumped, his fingers gently rubbed the wood carving, and asked seemingly casually: "This wood carving is very good, why didn't I see where it was broken." ”
"You turn over the base and take a look, there is a crack there, I just saw it, and I'm going to go back at night to unload the base, and the red rope is used as a hanging ornament." Cai Fang pointed to the location under the wood carving.
Shen Fu felt a little happy in his heart.
Fortunately, I touched it, otherwise when Cai Fang unloaded the base, it was likely to find the abnormality inside, and then the leak would be Cai Fang's, but it would not be his turn.
But then Shen Fu felt a little ashamed of his own thoughts.
If you don't buy it now, the piece of Western Han topaz with a hook inside should be Cai Fang's, and it is a little unkind to snatch love from me now.
Thinking about it like this, how could Shen Fu ask for this thing for nothing, so he said: "Brother Fang, you can make a price, this is estimated to be my first collection, but I can't ask for you for nothing, if you don't want to make a price, then I don't want this thing." ”
Of course, this is against his will, there is a Han jade worth more than five million hidden in the wood carving, how could he not want it.
"Then you can give five hundred dollars." Cai Fang pondered for a while, and said with a smile: "When my father received this thing a few years ago, I am afraid it cost one or two hundred yuan, and if you give five hundred, I still earned it." ”
"This ......"
Shen Fu hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Cheng, it's five hundred, thank you Brother Cai, I have accepted this love." ”
Shen Fu understands that at this time, you must not take the initiative to increase the price, otherwise it will make people suspicious.
"What are you thanking for, Shen Fu, you gave me an extra 400 yuan for buying a stray dog, and now I am 500 yuan cheaper for you, what is this." Cai Fang waved his hand absently.
Li Chenggong glanced at Cai Fang with envy.
Lao Cai's son, he is really blessed and doesn't know it, he actually got Shen Fu's favor like this.
With Shen Fu's mysterious means, no favor can be bought with money.
You must know that he Li Chenggong even gave away 15 million bar shares, and he didn't listen to Shen Fu's promise.
At the same time, Li Chenggong was also a little strange, the other party sold Shen Fu a wood carving for a few hundred yuan cheaper, why was Shen Fu willing to open his mouth to owe a favor?
Could it be ......
Li Chenggong couldn't help but take a few serious glances at the wood carving of the little monk in a lying position.
But no matter how he looks at it, he only thinks that this wood carving is a good workmanship, and there is nothing more special.
