Hu Wei is far from having strict presbyopia like Meng Xiangwei, he can be said to be an outlier among the elderly, he is already sixty-nine years old, and his eyesight is better than that of a young man. Both eyes are 1.5 vision, when Bao Feiyang took out the piece of Chengni inkstone, in Meng Xiangwei's eyes it was still a piece of yellow noise, but Hu Weiyuan had already seen every detail of the piece of Chengni inkstone, and judged very firmly in his heart that this was a treasure of the Song Dynasty Chengni inkstone, for a while he couldn't care about the seventieth birthday of his old friend Meng Xiangwei's life, stood up and snatched this piece of Chengni inkstone from Bao Feiyang's hand, while playing with it, his eyes also shot a greedy light, such a good baby should let him Hu Weiyuan collect it, let Meng Xiangwei that old guy, but the pearl is secretly cast!

"Song Dynasty treasure Chengni inkstone?" At this time, an old man sitting on the other side of Meng Xiangwei also stood up and walked to Hu Weiyuan's side. Compared with Hu Weiyuan and Meng Xiangwei, his origin is greater, he is a professor of the Department of Painting and Calligraphy of Zhongjiang Academy of Arts, and the executive vice president of the Zhongjiang Provincial Cultural Relics Collection Society.

"Lao Hu, let me see." Shi Bufeng stretched out his hand and wanted to snatch the Chengni inkstone in Hu Weiyuan's hand.

Hu Weiyuan immediately pushed Shi Bufeng's hand away and said, "Don't reach out, what should I do if I break it?" I'll hold it in my hand for you to see. Come on, come on, you take a look here......"

Hu Weiyuan held the inkstone under Shi Bufeng's eyes, pointed it with his fingers, and talked to Shi Bufeng.

According to Hu Weiyuan's judgment, this piece of Chengni inkstone is not only a treasure of the Song Dynasty, but also an orderly inheritance, and it should be the old collection of a famous family in the Qing Dynasty.

Liu Gongquan, a calligrapher of the Tang Dynasty, said in his writings: "The same end of the Chengni inkstone, She, and Taoshi inkstone are called the four famous inkstones. "Different from other famous inkstones, Chengni inkstone is the only pottery inkstone that is not made of natural stone, but is made of fine mud. Chengni inkstone because of the quality of fine but not slippery, hard but not dry, caress it like infant skin, knock it like a golden stone, research it like oil, look at it very young, carved like a solid stone, won the preference of literati and ink writers in the past dynasties.

The second characteristic of Chengni inkstone is different from his inkstone, which is not named after the place of origin, and its main production area is basically in the north, such as Henan Guyuzhou, Xiangzhou, Shanxi Jiangzhou, Zezhou, Fenzhou, Shandong Surabaya, among which the Chengni inkstone produced in Jiangzhou, Shanxi Province is the most prestigious.

This inkstone is the ancient Cheng mud material of Jiangzhou, the shape is like a tile, it is based on the most primitive Western Zhou plain tile in China, the big vessel is muddy, full of ancient meaning, simple and unpretentious, and it is interesting. The so-called tile, commonly known as the tile head tile, is one of the Chinese building components. During the Tang and Song dynasties, literati and scholars often liked to use ancient tiles to grind as inkstones, and for a time they became inkstones, and Xu Shichang, who was the president during the Republic of China, liked to collect the ancient tiles of the Tang and Song dynasties as inkstones, and the number was considerable, and it was called the first in the sea by the world.

Following the direction of Hu Weiyuan's finger, Shi Bufeng saw a line of words inscribed on the back of this piece of Cheng mud inkstone: This Song Cheng mud is made of inkstone, and the fine ink is stronger than the Duanshe stones, and the user knows how to do it. The payment is Boang, and the time is in the Little Red Goose Pavilion in the afternoon and autumn of Qianlong.

Shi Bufeng couldn't help but be surprised, this piece of Chengni inkstone turned out to be used by the famous Qing Dynasty educator Boang!

Boang, whose real name is Yao Yuanzhi, is recommended to Qing, and Boang is his word. Yao Yuanzhi was a famous calligrapher, painter and educator in the middle of the Qing Dynasty.

A native of Tongcheng, Anhui Province, a Jinshi in Jiaqing for ten years, he has served as a li, worker, soldier, household servant, and the imperial history of the left capital of the Metropolitan Inspection Academy. It is good at calligraphy, good at calligraphy and painting, fine brushwork, and the grass is very good, especially good at white drawing.

Shi Bufeng has studied ancient calligraphy and painting for most of his life, and is very familiar with Yao Yuanzhi's words, he looked at the calligraphy of the inkstone behind this piece of Chengni inkstone, which is Yao Yuanzhi's style, and he can't find the slightest flaw under careful scrutiny, and he can judge with his decades of experience that this is definitely Yao Yuanzhi's authentic handiwork. From this inkstone, it can be inferred that this piece of Chengni inkstone was used by Yao Yuanzhi, because of its touch, so the inscription, and Yao Yuanzhi's own inkstone, is to add a lot of value to this Song Dynasty treasure Chengni inkstone, because according to the habit of the collection world, the famous good inkstone is more favored by collectors because of the value of humanities and historical materials.

Subconsciously, the time did not seal the land to give a valuation of this piece of Chengni inkstone, according to the current cultural relics market, at least above 400,000, only high, not low.

Meng Xiangwei didn't expect Hu Weiyuan to make such a ridiculous move at his seventieth birthday banquet, and he began to be confused, and he didn't react for a while. At this time, I relieved my breath and heard the conversation between Hu Weiyuan and Shi Bufeng, saying that the Chengni inkstone presented by Bao Feiyang was a Song Dynasty treasure Chengni inkstone, and it was also a collection used by Yao Yuanzhi, a famous calligrapher, painter and educator in the Qing Dynasty, and there was an inscription by Yao Yuanzhi on it. ”、

Hu Weiyuan likes to collect antiques, especially the study of ancient inkstones, today to see such a rare treasure, is also a little loved, even if this is someone else's birthday gift to Meng Xiangwei, Hu Weiyuan does not want Meng Xiangwei to take it back. He withdrew his hand, flashed Meng Xiangwei's snatch, and said: "Old Meng, your old guy is really blessed, you actually got such a precious inkstone, but I am really greedy." ”

That is, Hu Weiyuan is thick-skinned and dares to mess around with Meng Xiangwei like this. Like Shi Bufeng, although he also likes this Fang Chengni inkstone in his heart, but because of his identity and face, he is not like Hu Weiyuan's stubborn face, and for a while, Shi Bufeng also envied Hu Weiyuan's cheekiness in his heart, I have to say that being cheeky has the benefits of being cheeky, and many times it is a thick-skinned person who is easy to take advantage. What a pity! What a treasure worth collecting in the Song Dynasty Chengni inkstone!

The young man who was sitting in the audience and was scolded by Hu Weiyuan just now saw that Meng Xiangwei and Hu Weiyuan were fighting in public for a piece of yellow broken inkstone, and he couldn't figure out what was going on for a while, this time he didn't dare to make a big fuss, but lowered his voice and asked the cadre of the Cultural Relics Bureau next to him: "Brother, Old Man Meng and Director Hu both keep saying that this is a piece of Song Dynasty Chengni inkstone, what is the value of the Song Dynasty Chengni inkstone, so that Old Man Meng and Curator Hu can compete like this?" ”

"Well, speaking of this Chengni inkstone, it's really extraordinary!" The cadre of the Cultural Relics Bureau next to him is also a good teacher, and when he saw this young man asking him for advice, he introduced him endlessly: "Chengni inkstone is one of the four famous inkstones in China, which began in the Han Dynasty and flourished in the Tang and Song dynasties, and is known as, 'the first inkstone'." Li Zhiyan of the Song Dynasty "Yan Spectrum" cloud: "Yuzhou Chengni, Tang people think that the Yan is the first." "The same end of the inkstone, She, Tao Yan three famous inkstone is different, Cheng mud inkstone is not made of natural stone as raw materials, according to the Song Dynasty's "Jia's Talks" and "Scholar's Four Spectrum" in the statement, roughly take the mud under the riverbed, after washing, with a silk bag to hold it, the mouth rope and then throw into the river, continue to be washed by water, so two or three years later, the mud in the silk bag is getting finer and finer, and then into the kiln to burn into inkstone bricks, and then carved into inkstone. That is to say, the Chengni inkstone is a pottery inkstone made of fine mud fired by fine sedimentation, because of its fine quality but not slippery, hard but not dry, caress it like a baby's skin, knock it like a golden stone, grind it like oil, carve it like a golden stone, so it is deeply favored by literati and ink writers in the past dynasties. Moreover, because the Chengni inkstone is clay, not limited by natural stone, and has strong plasticity, the shape is ever-changing, exquisite, and the colors are also colorful. However, because of its complicated production process and low yield, it has not been handed down much. ”

The cadres of the Cultural Relics Bureau in the audience were gushing and teasing, but Meng Xiangwei on the stage was almost confused by Hu Weiyuan, he pointed at Hu Weiyuan and scolded: "Old beard, don't be ashamed when you see rare things, this is my birthday gift, even if you want to rob it, you have to wait for me to take a look, right?" ”

Meng Xiangwei was naturally very angry about Hu Weiyuan's actions, but he didn't dare to force it, for fear that something would break this treasure between the battles - Hu Weiyuan is also a person who has seen a big scene, and this Song Dynasty Chengni inkstone can be regarded as a treasure by him, so it is not an exaggeration to call it a treasure at his birthday banquet without regard for face. So even if Meng Xiangwei was anxious, he could only watch from the sidelines, and he didn't dare to really step forward to fight Hu Weiyuan.

"What is your birthday gift, this young man hasn't been handed to you yet, it can't be regarded as a birthday gift. What's more, you just had a dumbfounded expression, obviously dissatisfied with this birthday gift, why are you in a hurry to grab it from me at this time. "Hu Weiyuan is really, really a bit disrespectful to the old, and he actually played a scoundrel.

"What's not satisfied? I obviously didn't have time to put on my reading glasses, and before I could see this inkstone, I was snatched by your old boy, okay? Meng Xiangwei didn't expect Hu Weiyuan to lie to him, and he was almost out of breath for a while.

Hu Weiyuan didn't care that Meng Xiangwei's chest rose and fell because he was angry, he just turned around, looked at Bao Feiyang, who was standing on the side and was crying and laughing, and said, "Young man, let's have a discussion, okay?" Can this inkstone be transferred to me? I can give you 200,000 yuan for you to give to old Meng Touer as a birthday gift. What do you think? ”

When he encountered his beloved thing, Hu Weiyuan didn't care if it was Meng Xiangwei's seventieth birthday banquet, he wanted to trade it on the spot, and it was really an old wonder.

However, as soon as Hu Weiyuan's words came out, everyone in the hall couldn't help but exclaim: 200,000 yuan! Oh my God, did you hear me right? A yellow old inkstone was actually bid 200,000 yuan by Hu Weiyuan, Director Hu Weiyuan Hu is not crazy, right? At this time, even if you buy a townhouse in Nanshan City, it is only about 100,000 yuan, and an old inkstone can be exchanged for two townhouses. Chen Zhiguo, the son of Chen Dongming, the director of the former Electric Power Bureau, took out a golden Buddha worth 30,000 yuan or 40,000 yuan, which was already the largest birthday gift that most people present had seen in their lives, but Meng Shuang's delicate boyfriend turned out to be four or five times the price of Chen Zhiguo's golden Buddha when he made a move. Although this birthday gift has nothing to do with them.

Chen Zhiguo's face has not looked good since Hu Weiyuan jumped out, and when he heard the price of 200,000 yuan quoted from Hu Weiyuan's mouth, his face was even more ugly. He never thought that a broken inkstone in Bao Feiyang's hand could have such a great charm, not only leading the three people with the highest status at this birthday banquet to compete for me, but even this Hu Weiyuan had to spend 200,000 yuan to buy this inkstone on the spot. His grandmother's is just a broken inkstone, is it that expensive? It's so much more expensive than the real golden Buddha made of pure gold? When did broken mud become so valuable? This Hu Weiyuan, shouldn't it be the childcare that Bao Feiyang paid to pay to act, right?

Of course, the last thought, Chen Zhiguo just thought about it, and he himself knew how ridiculous this idea was. Although Hu Weiyuan is only the director of the Nanshan City Museum and the director of the Nanshan City Institute of Cultural Relics, he has loved collecting all his life and has collected a lot of rare and exotic treasures. Chen Zhiguo didn't believe that Bao Feiyang could afford to buy Hu Weiyuan to act for him, and if Bao Feiyang had that money, it would be more cost-effective to directly buy a birthday gift for Meng Xiangwei.

Bao Feiyang was angry and funny, he didn't expect that this Hu Weiyuan took the Chengni inkstone from his hand first, not to mention, he even whimsically came up with the idea of paying money to buy this Chengni inkstone, and then let himself use cash as a congratulatory gift to Meng Xiangwei......

"300,000 yuan. What do you think? Hu Wei saw that Bao Feiyang was silent, thinking that he was dissatisfied with his offer, and hurriedly began to increase the price.

"Hehe, old man, this piece of Chengni inkstone is a gift I bought back from Xijing to give to Grandpa Meng, it is a piece of my heart, and it cannot be used as a transaction. What's more, my piece of Chengni inkstone is not only worth 300,000 yuan, right? Bao Feiyang directly rejected Hu Weiyuan's request. However, he added this sentence later, mainly to slap Chen Zhiguo in the face who stood aside like a fool, not to say that he wanted to bargain with Hu Weiyuan.

"350,000 ......" Hu Weiyuan thought that Bao Feiyang was tempted, but his price had not yet been given to Bao Feiyang's psychological price, so he increased the price again, he stared at Bao Feiyang's face, as long as Bao Feiyang nodded, he would not hesitate to carry this inkstone into his arms, and then fill out a cash check in front of Bao Feiyang as his birthday gift.

"Old man, I said it, don't sell it!" Bao Feiyang shook his head calmly and refused Hu Weiyuan's price increase.

Damn, this stinky boy is not very old, and his heart is really dark! He has already paid 350,000 yuan on his side, and he is not satisfied, Hu Weiyuan can't help but be secretly anxious. Thinking that 350,000 yuan is already the salary of a civil servant for sixty or seventy years, this kid is still indifferent, what does it mean?

"I'll give you 400,000 yuan as a birthday gift, young man, sell me this inkstone." At this time, Shi Bufeng, who had been embarrassed to join the battle because of his face, finally couldn't resist the temptation of this Song Dynasty treasure Chengni inkstone, and no matter what the expression on Meng Xiangwei's face was, he insisted on participating in, as if he was participating in the auction of cultural relics.

400,000 !! My God, we can't earn a piece of money for a broken inkstone after a lifetime of hard work. Everyone in the hall was dumbfounded......

"Time is not closed, what are you doing when you come out to make trouble?" Without waiting for Bao Feiyang to react, Hu Weiyuan glared at Shi Wufeng angrily and shouted: "This Chengni inkstone is obviously the first one I grabbed it, what does it have to do with you?" ””

As he spoke, he turned his head and asked Bao Feiyang: "Young man, I'll pay 500,000 yuan, it's all right." If you ask for a check, I'll write it to you right away. If you want cash, I will immediately call someone to send it over, hand it over to you on the spot, and let you dedicate it to you, Grandpa Meng. ”

"Feiyang, don't sell!" Meng Xiangwei stomped his feet and shouted, for fear that Bao Feiyang would be bewitched by Hu Weiyuan, so he agreed with his suggestion, "You don't want to sell him as much as he pays, we don't scarce his stinky money!" ”

"Yes, Feiyang, you listen to grandpa, don't sell it!" At this time, Meng Shuang also ran over, took Bao Feiyang's hand and said.

"Seven hundred thousand, young man, this is my last bid, you missed this village and there is no such shop!" Hu Wei saw that Bao Feiyang was about to be moved by Meng Shuang and Meng Xiangwei, so he hurriedly said.

"700,000?" Bao Feiyang's eyes moved, and he seemed to be really moved by Hu Weiyuan's offer, he walked to Hu Weiyuan's side and said, "700,000 is 700,000, but for fear that you will regret it, I want to tell you one thing first, there is a small problem with this inkstone." ”

Hearing that Bao Feiyang agreed to sell, Hu Weiyuan couldn't help but be overjoyed, he heard Bao Feiyang say that there was a small problem with this piece of Chengni inkstone, so he subconsciously stretched the inkstone forward and said to Bao Feiyang: "Where is it?" If there's a little problem, you can show it to me. ”

"It's here, I'll show you," Bao Feiyang stretched out his hand very naturally, took the inkstone from Hu Weiyuan's hand, and then pointed to the top of the inkstone and said, "Old man, have you seen it, there are three words engraved here......

"What's the word? Why can't I see clearly? Hu Weiyuan didn't realize at this time that this piece of Song Dynasty treasure Chengni inkstone had been taken back by Bao Feiyang, he stared at his two eyes with a vision of 1.5, and tried to look at the place where Bao Feiyang fingered, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't see what three words were engraved on it.

"Hehe, can't you see clearly? I'll read it to you, sir, these three words are 'I don't sell'! Bao Feiyang put this Song Dynasty treasure Chengni inkstone into his arms, and Zhengse said to Hu Weiyuan, "Old man, I'm sorry, I don't sell this Chengni inkstone!" ”

"You, you...... You...... You're cheating! You don't talk about credit, you are shameless! Hu Weiyuan watched Bao Feiyang take the piece of mud inkstone into his arms, and was so angry that he couldn't speak coherently, and pointed at Bao Feiyang with his finger and trembled. (To be continued.) )
