Chapter 51: Three-legged Golden Toad (2)
"Of course it's a good thing."
At this time, the shopkeeper came over, opened his eyes and said nonsense: "This three-legged golden toad is also a treasure in our store. It is carefully carved from yellow wax stone. Yellow wax stone, you know, it's the kind outside, it's also called Huanglongyu......"
"Okay boss, I really think we don't understand."
Yu Feibai said with disdain: "Yellow wax stone and yellow dragon jade, but there is a difference. Yellow wax stone may have yellow dragon jade, but yellow dragon jade can never be yellow wax stone. ”
"Moreover, the texture of yellow wax stone is lubricated and delicate, whether transparent or opaque, the stone color is very pure. But the stone you are hanging outside, although it is yellow, but the texture is average, I am afraid it is not a yellow wax stone, but a pebble in the Shangqing River. Chapter 51: The Three-Legged Golden Toad (2)
Yu Feibai chuckled: "The most important thing is that this three-legged golden toad is gray and yellowish in the stone color, and the texture is even rougher, even ordinary pebbles are stronger than this." ”
"Hehe, you're an expert, so why should I say more."
The shopkeeper didn't feel embarrassed, but smiled: "However, don't underestimate these stones." These stones were indeed picked up from the Shangqing River. However, the Shangqing River has been flowing for thousands of years, and it is a place where dragons and tigers meet, and with Zhang Tianshi in charge, the river has an aura. The stones that were soaked and washed by the river are somewhat spiritual, and they may be able to drive away ghosts and evil spirits......"
Yu Feibai smiled and said nothing, when it came to Zhang Tianshi, although he didn't believe this, but on other people's territory, he still said a few words, so as not to attract people's eyes. Of course, this is a new era, and the shopkeeper is not very old, at most he is making money under the sign of Zhang Tianshi, and in fact, he does not have much religious faith.
Seeing that Yu Feibai was silent, the shopkeeper also changed the topic with interest: "The stone of this three-legged golden toad is indeed not very good, but it is really a few years. And the workmanship is fine, the meaning is good, and it can attract wealth and enter the treasure, town house, exorcise evil spirits, and prosper wealth. There is an old saying, Chapter 51 Three-legged Golden Toad (2) The family has a golden toad, and the wealth is prosperous...... You can't go wrong with buying it back. ”
Although a big deal has just been made, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, how can it not be done if there is a business.
Sensing that Wang Guan seemed to be interested in buying this three-legged golden toad, no matter how much he didn't pay attention to it before, he even treated it as garbage and placed it in the corner of the lowest layer of the wooden frame. But at this time, the shopkeeper was full of fancy in his mouth, and praised the three-legged golden toad as a rare treasure in the sky and unparalleled in the ground.
When Wang Guan heard this, he suddenly smiled and said, "You are mistaken, this thing is not carved in stone, but made of red clay pottery." If you don't believe it, you can see that the mud has not even dried and burned thoroughly, and it is about to turn to ashes. ”
"That's true."
Yu Feibai looked down, stretched out his hand and touched it, and his fingers were immediately stained with a little plaster.
"This thing should be placed in the corner of the kiln and baked at a low temperature when it is fired. I estimate that when the kiln was opened, this thing was not completely dry, at most it was a semi-finished product. Wang Guan smiled: "After that, the craftsman simply used the knife, carved and repaired like this, and then slowly dried it to have this characteristic similar to stone." ”
"Makes sense, I said why it's so rough, it turns out to be mud." Yu Feibai suddenly realized.
"To be honest, the shape of this golden toad with beads is quite special. I don't know if it's the local culture or the styling of a certain historical stage. Wang Guan frowned, and said in a consultative tone: "You say, do you want to buy it back, please ask Uncle De?" ”
Yu Feibai shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "It's up to you." ”
Waiting for this sentence, Wang Guan smiled, turned around and asked, "Boss, how much is this thing?" ”
"That's the number!" The shopkeeper held out a finger.
"Ten bucks?" Wang Guan said with a smile.
"A thousand."
The shopkeeper smiled, and made it clear that he was going to slaughter a knife.
"What, this thing costs a thousand, boss, you want to rob money." Wang Guan frowned, suddenly put down the three-legged golden toad, stretched out his hand to Yu Feibai and said, "Please use your mobile phone, take two photos, and go back to ask Uncle De." ”
"No problem." Yu Feibai chuckled and took out his mobile phone.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly said: "Oh, the price is all over the sky, and the money will be paid back on the ground." If you really want to buy it, the price is negotiable. ”
"A hundred yuan, if you like to sell, you can sell it, and if you don't sell it, you will pull it down." Yu Feibai said impatiently.
"One hundred is too little, add another hundred." The shopkeeper was calculating.
"Okay, then wrap it up." Wang Guan said indifferently, looking too lazy to care about it, he took two hundred yuan in his wallet and handed it over.
"Thank you for your patronage and welcome to your next visit."
The shopkeeper took the money with a smile, took a simple cardboard box casually, and put the three-legged golden toad in it, not suspecting anything else at all, let alone seeing the excitement in Wang Guan's eyes when he lowered his head.
Holding the box and walking out of the antique shop, Wang Guan's excited mood calmed down a little.
"It was a good day."
At this time, Yu Feibai smiled and said, "I'm going back." What about you, go together, or continue sightseeing? ”
"Go back."
Wang Guan said without hesitation: "There are too many people, and they can't feel the charm of the ancient town on the promotional photos." ”
"That's it for tourist attractions." Yu Feibai said with a smile: "Any landscape that is a little famous is bustling and noisy. Sometimes, travel is not only not relaxing, but more irritating. ”
While talking, the two walked to the place where they took the car and took the car away.
Soon after, the two returned to the visitor center, and when they arrived at the room, Yu Feibai couldn't wait to call Gao Dequan's mobile phone, wanting to show off his harvest to him.
The phone was connected, and hearing Yu Feibai explain the situation, Gao Dequan was very interested and came back after a while.
Before entering the door, Yu Feibai beckoned with great interest: "Uncle De, come and see." ”
Gao Dequan walked quickly, only to see that on the table, Yu Feibai had already placed twenty jade belt plates in a neat and orderly manner according to the combination law of jade belts.
Looking at the crystal luster on the jade belt plate, Gao Dequan already had a rough judgment in his heart, and then touched it carefully, and after taking a serious look, he immediately praised it and said: "The thing is very good, look at this cloud dragon ornament, you know that this is the fine jade belt of the Ming Dynasty, at least a person of the level of the prince and minister, only qualified to wear." ”
"So, I'm buying the right one." Yu Feibai smiled and said: "As soon as I look at this carving, modeling, and jade quality, I know that this thing is right." ”
"Feibai, it's very progressive."
Gao Dequan praised it, picked up a square jade belt plate, pointed to the dragon pattern on it and said: "Actually, if you want to know whether this jade belt plate is an imitation of fake jade, just look at this dragon pattern." Most of the current pseudo-jade is carved with a mechanical drill bit, and then it is corroded and barbed by pickling, and artificially disabled, so it looks very unnatural. ”
But now look at the cloud dragon pattern carving on the jade belt plate, it is clearly a typical characteristic of the Ming Dynasty. The dragon head is long, and the two eyes are very close together, which makes it look sluggish. The big nose of Ruyi moire rolls upward, and two long whiskers appear on both sides, stretching upwards with the trend, and the hair hair rushes upwards or forward...... This form is also known as the angry crown! ”
Gao Dequan commented carefully: "In addition, there is also a kind of dragon pattern, the head is round and slightly long, the facial features are concentrated under the face, there are two crescent lines on the forehead, and a strand of long hair on the back of the head flutters in the wind. The body is long, the limbs are leaping, the joints are carved with moire decorations, and the tail branches are rolled up...... and so on, all of which were characteristics that only the Ming Dynasty had. ”
