Chapter 52: The Three-Legged Golden Toad (3)

"Twenty jade belt plates are a complete jade belt, whether it is jade quality or workmanship, it is very perfect, and it is relatively rare on the market." Gao Dequan smiled: "Anyway, you bought the right thing." 390,000 yuan, it is not unjustly spent, and there is room for appreciation. ”

"Thank you, Uncle De." Yu Feibai was overjoyed, and suddenly asked: "By the way, Uncle De, this jade belt is from the Ming Dynasty, but can the specific time be identified?" ”

Speaking of which, compared with the Han people, the grassland peoples in the north prefer waist ornaments. Therefore, during the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, after the great integration of ethnic groups, this kind of jade belt with a slug became popular in the Central Plains. Later, the Mongolian people entered the Central Plains, and this shape of the jade belt was even more deeply rooted in the people. ”

Gao Dequan muttered in Chapter 52 of the Three-legged Golden Toad (3) and said: "Actually, at least by the Yuan Dynasty, the shape and number of leather belts have been stylized. However, until the early Ming Dynasty, the number of belts ranged from 16 to 25 pieces. It was not until the middle of the period that the rule of the Ming Dynasty was deep-rooted, the imperial power was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the number of shapes with the Ming Dynasty was finally formed, and no one dared to surpass it. However, after the late Ming Dynasty, the imperial power was unstable, and the phenomenon of overstepping reappeared. ”

"However, looking at the form of this cloud dragon pattern, it is very regular, there is no arbitrariness in the early period, and there is no sense of decay in the late period, you can know that this is a work in the middle of the Ming Dynasty."

Gao Dequan smiled: "So, this is the joy of collecting." From the tiny details on an antique, you can know the cultural background and changes of the times in a certain historical period. You can see it, and you are very happy. You can't see that in the process of excavation, there is something to gain, and then you should feel very happy. ”

Wang Guan and Yu Feibai nodded as if they didn't understand, a little touched, but they didn't have a deep understanding of the meaning.

Gao Dequan didn't care, when he was young, he didn't understand anything, but now that he is older, his experience is gradually increasing, and he will have such a feeling of Chapter 52 Three-legged Golden Toad (3).

Now, Gao Dequan just wants to plant a seed in Wang Guan and Yu Feibai's hearts, as for whether the seed can take root and sprout, it depends on their character and chance.

After all, such perceptions are all more subjective, if you understand, you will understand, if you don't understand, it is impossible for Gao Dequan to forcibly stuff his own concept into the brains of the two.

Therefore, seeing the thoughtful appearance of the two, Gao Dequan was already quite satisfied, and then said with a smile: "I went out for a walk, Feibai's harvest is not small, what about Wang Guan, what treasure have you found?" ”

"A three-legged golden toad has a special shape, so I bought it back." Wang Guan smiled, took out the golden toad and put it on the table.

"Uncle De, this golden toad is really special."

At this time, Yu Feibai also smiled beside him: "People's golden toads, either spit out money, or hold money, or simply inlay a lot of copper coins underneath, all of which are good meanings and good signs." But this golden toad is holding a bead, which is really rare. I even wonder if this thing is a modern artifact. ”

"The golden toad contains beads, or the golden toad spits beads. Such ornaments are indeed rare. However, that doesn't mean there isn't. Gao Dequan looked at the three-legged golden toad and said: "This kind of thing, in the Ming and Qing dynasties, was also relatively popular. Especially on the bookcase of the study, there are often ornaments of golden toads. ”

"I know that." Wang Guan smiled and said: "Legend has it that there is a three-legged toad in the Moon Palace, and later generations also call the Moon Palace the Toad Palace. Therefore, there is a saying that the Toad Palace is a laurel, which is a metaphor for being admitted to the Jinshi. ”

"That's right."

Gao Dequan approvingly: "I remember that a few years ago, Jigu Zhai received a paperweight in the shape of a golden toad with beads, as well as an inkstone carved with a golden toad bead pattern. Two things seem to be still there, if you are interested, you can go and see them when you go back. ”

"Toad Palace, I can understand it." Yu Feibai nodded, and said a little confused: "But, why do you have to spit out beads?" What is the meaning of this? ”

"What's so hard to understand about that." Gao Dequan shook his head and said, "You don't know how to look, what shape is the bead?" ”

Round ......

As soon as he spoke, Yu Feibai immediately reacted and suddenly realized: "Champion." ”

"That's right." Gao Dequan said with a smile: "Toad Palace Zhegui is a Zhongjinshi, in the mouth of Jin Toad, with a bead, he just wants to win the positions of Xie Yuan, Hui Yuan, and Champion on the basis of Zhongjin Shi." ”

"Understood."

Yu Feibai and Wang Guan nodded in admiration, but they didn't expect that a small ornament contained such a profound meaning. It is no wonder that Gao Dequan often said that every antique has a historical and cultural connotation worth studying.

"Actually, the early golden toad appeared more in Taoist culture." Seeing that the two were interested, Gao Dequan also said with great interest: "Later, after going deep into the people, it slowly evolved and let the readers use it." ”

"Bangs play golden toad." Wang Guan blurted out. He had some impression that this bangs seemed to be a well-known figure in Taoism.

"I also know that bangs play Jin Toad, and the allusion to fishing for money step by step." At this time, Yu Feibai questioned: "However, my family also has an ornament of bangs playing golden toad, but that character seems to be a monk." ”

"It seems to be." Wang Guan thought about it for a while, nodded and said: "The ornaments of bangs and golden toads are really diverse, not only the bald monk type, but also the portraits of people with cloak and even children......"

"That's folklore, and it diversifies the character of bangs." Gao Dequan said with a smile: "There are the God of Wealth, the Eight Immortals, Taoist priests, Zen masters, children, etc., and even in the flower drum play, there is a bangs that cut wood." ”

"Yes, yes......" Yu Feibai nodded again and again, holding his throat and singing: "Sister Hu, I'm hungry!" ”

"Don't make a noise!"

The howl of the ghost crying wolf made Gao Dequan frown, and he couldn't help but stretch out his hand and snap it, making Yu Feibai dumb.

Wang Guan snickered beside him, relieved that he finally didn't have to endure noise pollution.

"I really don't know how to appreciate ......" Yu Feibai muttered in a low voice, daring to be angry but not daring to speak.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Gao De pretended not to see Yu Feibai's resentful expression, and continued: "There are too many legends about Liu Hai, but the one that is closer to the original form should be Liu Hai Toad, one of the five ancestors of Taoism. ”

"Liu Haichan, the year of birth and death is unknown, is a fifth-generation Taoist priest. The surname is Liu, the name is Cao, the word Zongcheng, and the word Zhaoyuan, and the number Hai Toad......" Yu Feibai quickly took out his mobile phone, searched on the Internet, and read out Liu Haichan's information, and then said with some surprise: "It's actually a real person, I always thought that this was a myth and legend." ”

"History records, true or false, who dares to say, this is the truth." Gao Dequan smiled: "You just need to know that there is such a person." As for his life deeds and the like, it can only be used as a reference. ”
