"You're right, this kind of book is a bit rigid. However, this is a pavilion! The pavilion style is the standard regular script style of the official documents of the Qing Dynasty, which originally emphasized the unity of the shape, size and thickness of the written characters. Tang Yi patiently explained:

"At that time, there were a lot of people who learned this kind of calligraphy, but it was rare to be able to write so neatly on porcelain! This pen holder is an absolute fine product in the folk kiln. Kangxi blue and white, official kilns and private kilns are fine. If there is one more famous folk kiln on this, it can be worth 500,000! ”

"So I've collected five thousand, it's really a leak! Thank you, thank you, almost 6,000 to that person! Lao Tan finally took back the pen holder and carefully put it in a brocade box. When he heard Tang Yi say this, he naturally knew that Tang Yi didn't really want to buy it, but to help him.

After cleaning up, Lao Tan arched his hand at Tang Yi again.

With this arch, Tang Yi found that Lao Tan's right thumb was with a wrench.

It's a topaz wrench.

Topaz can be used as a general term, and the types of jade included are actually diverse. For example, Hetian jade has topaz, and it is very finely divided, there are original mountain materials Huangkou materials, and there are also acquired Huangqin seed materials that are dyed by the outside world. There are also native topaz seeds, of course, native topaz seeds are too rare to be seen on the market.

Topaz is also found in river abrasives. The old jade mine of River Abrasives is located in the northeast, and the jade composition of this old jade mine. In fact, it is similar to Hetian jade. The so-called river abrasive, which is produced by the jade of this old jade mine, is actually similar to the origin of Hetian seeds, which are all collapsed jade blocks, which are washed and polished by river water and pebbles for thousands of years.

Among the river abrasives, yellow material and green material are the majority, and the blockiness is larger. Unlike Hetian jade, which has a variety of colors, and small seeds account for a large proportion.

This topaz wrench is made of old river abrasives.

The jade color of the wrench is as yellow as a piece of chicken fat, and at the circle at one end, there is a piece of brown skin. This brown leather has been skillfully carved into an undulating mountain, and the knife is exquisite. The mountains are majestic, and the yellow color mixed in them is like the sunset, which is magnificent and extraordinary.

The waist of the wrench finger is also engraved with four Lishu fonts: great rivers and mountains.

"Your old yellow wrench is a good thing in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties!" Tang Yi couldn't help but praise.

Lao Tan glanced at Tang Yi, "Boss Tang seems to be very proficient in jade!" ”

Tang Yi felt awkward in his heart! Although Mao Chai said that Lao Tan is a jade idiot, if you are only proficient in the same, you are not allowed to let others know all the work? If I only understand porcelain, the level of jade is the same as the level of your porcelain half a bottle of vinegar, can you still see that it is from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties?

"This is not only a wrench in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, this is a wrench brought by Nurhachi or Huang Taiji!" Lao Tan's eyes glowed, and his expression suddenly perked, "Needless to say, the shape of the Manchu people in the early Qing Dynasty." However, at that time, the wrenches were all made of bone and horns, and there were very few of them made of jade. Not to mention having Chinese characters! ”

"Although the origin of the river abrasive, at that time was controlled by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, but the hardness of the river abrasive is extremely high, it is difficult to carve, the carving method, obviously not Su, but the northern work, the northern work is generally rougher, this is the top northern work. Who in general can have such financial resources and dispatch power? ”

"And it's a topaz wrench. The Manchu Eight Banners, the Zhenghuang Flag is one of the three flags. Besides, Huang and Huang have the same sound, who dares to wear a topaz wrench in ordinary people? Moreover, the four words 'great rivers and mountains' on this are not Manchu but Chinese, plus this tone, this point, who can have it? Combined with the shape, age, and pulp, it must be so! ”

After Lao Tan finished speaking in one breath, his face was full of energy, his mouth was spitting, where was the puzzled attitude in the face of the blue and white pen holder just now? What a complete connoisseur!

Mao Chai said that he was a jade idiot, which was really not wrong at all.

"Old man." Tang Yi unconsciously changed his title, "Since you know so much about the history of the early Qing Dynasty, how can you not know the pavilion body of the Qing Dynasty?" ”

"Hey, it has nothing to do with jade, I haven't paid much attention to it." Old Tan smiled, and seemed to be a little embarrassed again.

Tang Yi also smiled, "You just wear this wrench on your hand so casually, if you sell it, you don't have to set up a stall anymore!" ”

"Yes, seven or eight years ago, a set of Qianlong imperial wrenches was auctioned on the market, and seven of them were auctioned for more than 40 million!" Mao interjected.

Mao Zhu's information is correct. However, that set of wrenches is a complete set, and a set of wrenches is rare. These seven wrenches include two white jade wrenches, two jasper wrenches, one Hanyu wrench, one green jade wrench, and one red-skinned green jade wrench. Four of the wrenches are also engraved with Qianlong's imperial poems. The special box containing the wrench is a round box of high-quality red sea fish.

Therefore, this topaz wrench is definitely incomparable to that set. However, seven or eight years have passed, and the market of high-quality ancient jade wrenches has been rising.

"Sell?" Lao Tan actually glared, "The jade I collect, that's my life!" Can I sell my life? ”

Tang Yi thought to himself, he really responded to the old saying, knowing the ancient is not poor, and greedy for the ancient is not rich.

This old Tan is so proficient in ancient jade, if it is really like what Mao Zhu said, he has a large collection of ancient jade at home, but he is sitting on a treasure trove and guarding poverty. Even if most of them are spilled out, how many years of accumulation should it take? For so many years, I am afraid that he has been living such a poor life.

I can't stand it even if I can't get in or out.

However, although Lao Tan is a greedy person who is not rich, looking at his state, he can live a little bit of a good life.

Seeing that Tang Yi was constantly pondering, Lao Tan suddenly shouted to Mao Zhu: "Mao Zhu, you won't introduce your boss here to collect my jade, right?" Shouting, his face changed greatly, and he waved his hand around, "If that's the case, hurry up and go, we two brothers don't have to do it if we leave late!" ”

Okay, what kind of seniority are these?

Tang Yi hurriedly patted Lao Tan's arm, "Don't worry, old man, you definitely don't mean that." Mao Chai just wants to introduce you to me. I never do anything to rob people of love. If you are in doubt, I won't look at your collection, so let's just exchange our thoughts on jade in our free time. ”

"Old Tan, you really misunderstood Tang Yi!" Mao Chai also hurriedly said, "He just came back from Yanjing today, and I pulled him here." Say you're a jade idiot, a jade collector, take him to see it! ”

"Really?" Lao Tan was still a little suspicious, but he said to himself, "But Boss Tang is indeed a person with excellent eyesight, and it is the late Ming and early Qing dynasties to give this topaz a finger at a glance, and it is not something that ordinary people can do!" ”

"Hahahaha!" Tang Yi laughed, and then he also went crazy, "Old man, even if you put all your jade artifacts in front of me, I can clearly determine the age!" ”
