Chapter 777: Four Great Tragedies
Tang Yi got up with a smile and looked around, as if he wanted to leave.
Although Zhang Lu thought it was an old thing, this kind of lacquerware miscellaneous, even if it was really from the Qing Dynasty, might not be worth 10,000, so he also stood up.
The stall owner was a little anxious, this thing, he did receive it from Guangdong Province, many of the antiques in Qiongdao were collected from the market in Guangdong Province, and there were few things in Qiongdao after all. He didn't charge low, he spent 5,000, he was thinking, how can he double it?
Tang Yi looked at the other scattered stalls and said to Zhang Lu, "Take a look at other stalls?" ”
When Zhang Lu heard this, he understood that Tang Yi didn't really want to go, but wanted to take this thing. If you really want to go, you just say "let's go". There are only a few stalls left, and I've been shopping for a long time, what else is there to see?
"You buddy, you make a lot of money for eight thousand, and you've collected all of them, what are you doing with two thousand yuan?" Zhang Lu said to the stall owner, and then said to Tang Yi, "Let's go!" ”
As soon as Tang Yi took one step, the stall owner couldn't hold back, "Okay, okay, here you go!" Eight thousand, some money, I just need cash, there's an ATM over there! ”
"I just have more than 8,000 yuan in my bag, and this is also fate!" Tang Yi opened the handbag and directly pointed out eight thousand.
The stall owner scolded secretly, if you are only 5,000, you still can't choke me to death? I found a plastic bag, "There's no box, you can make do with it!" ”
Tang Yi stretched out his hand to take it, got up and left, but Zhang Lu frowned, but seeing that Tang Yi was gone, he didn't speak, so he followed.
"This kid, this sum of thousands of dollars has always been earned, right? Not even a box! Zhang Lu said as he walked.
"It doesn't matter, you can help match a red sandalwood box and base when you go back, and ordinary boxes don't match this thing.
"Rosewood? If it's a good material, add a lining, and this box will be more than 10,000! Zhang Ludao, "What kind of treasure is this seal box?" ”
Tang Yi smiled, "You invite me to dinner in the evening, and I'll tell you about it." ”
"Tell me?" Zhang Lule was happy, "If you don't tell me about it, I'll invite you to dinner!" Tell me first, what is this inlay and why does it have a color? Is it really dyed? “
"Of course it's not dyed. The raden used for this is very thin, transparent, and the color is the base color, which is added to the carved lacquer surface before inlay. Tang Yidao, "This process is called a snail, and it is very difficult to do it well." You just said that you can do two things with a good carpentry master? With this kind of craftsmanship and such a complex story, you may not be able to find a master to make it. ”
"Huh?" Zhang Lu was a little surprised, it seems that Tang Yi missed it. "What kind of story are they, I don't read much, don't bluff me, it's not the four famous books anyway."
Tang Yi smiled. Zhang Lu really didn't read much, he helped out in his father's carpentry workshop when he was a teenager, and later he was busy with business, so he naturally didn't have time to study. As for hobbies of antiques and looking for information, it is all in a hurry.
"These four story patterns are: Dou E's injustice, Han Gongqiu, Wutong Yu, and Zhao's orphan!" Tang Yi introduced.
"Why do you feel that these four stories are a little far apart?" Listening to Tang Yi say that he is famous, Zhang Lu also knows a little about it.
"It's a bit far away, but judging from the mosaic scenes, it's obvious that they are all miscellaneous dramas from the Yuan Dynasty. These four scripts are known as the four major tragedies of the Yuan Dynasty. However, miscellaneous dramas in the Yuan Dynasty were prevalent, and there were many versions of the four major tragedies, and this is just one of them. The four authors, Guan Hanqing, Ma Zhiyuan, Bai Pu, and Ji Junxiang, are also relatively famous. ”
Zhang Lu was a little embarrassed, and said in his heart that I knew Guan Hanqing, but he still nodded solemnly, "I know that Dou E and the Zhao orphans are very sad." ”
In fact, Zhao's orphans he still watches movies. If it weren't for Ge You, Huang Xiaoming, and Haiqing Fan Bingbing, it is estimated that he would not have watched it.
"The autumn of the Han Palace and the rain of Wutong are all about the emperor and his concubines. The autumn of the Han Palace is the matter of Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty, and Wutongyu is estimated to know if you say it, it is Emperor Tang Ming and Yang Guifei. ”
Go back to the hotel to put away the things, take a short rest, and on the way to the hotel, Tang Yi told Zhang Lu about the general content of Han Palace Autumn and Wutong Rain.
"I'm just wondering, what is the reason for so many tragic stories in a printing box?" After the dishes were served, after the waiter withdrew from the private room, Zhang Lu opened again. Originally, he directly wanted to ask how much this black lacquer luodian seal box could be worth, but Tang Yigang told him some history and culture, and for a while he felt that it seemed a bit vulgar to talk about money in a hurry.
"Because this seal box is from the Yuan Dynasty." Tang Yi took a bite of the dish and said slowly.
"Not from the Qing Dynasty? The Yuan Dynasty could also make such a delicate thing? Zhang Lu stopped his chopsticks.
"Yuan Qinghua is also from the Yuan Dynasty, and the character paintings on the big pot are also very exquisite."
"The literati of the Yuan Dynasty wrote and painted, and liked tragedy as a companion?"
At that time, the Han people fell into the hands of foreigners, and the Han literati were depressed, so they also had some sustenance on the printing box. Although the four major tragedies were summarized by later generations, at the time, they were already very popular, and if you observe, the emotions reflected in each of the four stories are also obvious. ”
Tang Yi said, and sandwiched another piece of chicken, "Well, the Wenchang chicken made in this restaurant is really good!" ”
"Wenchang chicken, Jiaji duck, Dongshan goat, Hele crab, the four famous dishes of Qiongdao are all for you!" Zhang Lu lit a cigarette, "Go on!" ”
"Dou E's grievance expresses a kind of grievance; In the autumn of the Han Palace, Emperor Yuan of the Han Dynasty couldn't even protect his concubines, expressing a kind of grief and indignation; Wutong rain, the focus is on the part of Emperor Tang Ming missing Yang Guifei; The orphan of the Zhao family is a story of revenge. Grievances, grief, longing, and revenge were the emotions that surged in the hearts of the Han literati at that time. Reflected in the printing box, do you say it is very appropriate? ”
"Huh? When you say that, I really suddenly understand. However, you can't judge that it is from the Yuan Dynasty by this, right? Zhang Lu continued to ask.
Since he is a collaborator, Tang Yi did not reserve it, "Of course, this is just a supporting evidence." The main thing is to look at the process, the pulp, and the characteristics of the ornamentation. Then, he gave Zhang Lu some key points.
When Zhang Lu heard the end, he simply applauded, "It is said that picking up leaks and picking up leaks, if you don't have eyesight, you can't pick up leaks in front of you!" This thing, 8,000 yuan, I will definitely not buy it! ”
"Yes, don't say eight thousand, you won't buy three hundred yuan of 'coal spirit'!" Tang Yi teased.
"Hey, didn't you pick it up?" Zhang Lu took a sip of beer and asked, "I bought it for 8,000, and the actual price has to be doubled several times, right?" ”
