Chapter 190: Thousand-Year Rosewood
"Master, isn't this just an ordinary Buddha statue? What's the difference? Mu Chengqiang is also interested, he and Monk Zhiyuan are also old friends, but he can't see through what is going on with Monk Zhiyuan today, how can he be surprised by anything, this is not like his style. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Monk Zhiyuan shook his head, "No, this is not an ordinary Buddha statue!" ”
"If I'm not mistaken, this Buddha statue should be carved out of small leaves of red sandalwood, this carving is very superb, it is simply vivid, and it exudes a faint fragrance, so the material used is also excellent!"
"As for how old this is, I can't tell how old it is, but it will definitely not be less than a thousand years, otherwise there will be no such color!"
"What? Rosewood microphylla? Millennium? ”
Mu Chengqiang gasped, he himself is a builder, and he is naturally no stranger to Xiaoye red sandalwood.
As a kind of precious wood, red sandalwood is mostly used in furniture, carving technology, etc. Of course, most of the products sold on the market are fake and shoddy, and if they are genuine, the prices are almost sky-high. And it's not a long time, and those that have been around for a long time are priceless, and others won't sell them easily. Of course, most of the precious timber is now under protection, and private individuals are not allowed to cut it without permission.
"No, this is a thousand-year-old red sandalwood?" Mu Chengqiang was a little unbelievable, "Xiao Yan, is this really what you picked up casually in the antique street?" ”
At this time, Mu Chengqiang was shocked.
"Well, whatever you want." Mu Yan waved his hand.
He picked up this thing in the temple in the magic farm, and he didn't know what it was for at the time, so he picked it up anyway, and it was almost the same with him.
"This Buddha statue is not only made of good materials, but also reveals a kind of Zen, which should be blessed by the Dharma. Tsk, I've lived so long, and I've never met a Buddha statue with such a strong Dharma, which has been worshiped for at least thousands of years, right? ”
Monk Zhiyuan muttered to himself. But Mu Chengqiang's focus is different, but the sentence "thousands of years", thousands of years, what does that mean? Isn't that an antique?
Regardless of whether it is Dharma or not, it is said that it is a thousand-year-old antique, and this thing is very valuable. Of course, for those who believe in Buddhism, this value is self-evident.
However, the least concerned thing is Mu Yan.
He originally thought that there was a monk here, so let him see if he could see anything. After all, at the beginning, Mu Yan relied on his spiritual power and felt that this Buddha statue had a special feeling, which was difficult to express in words, and could only be understood but not spoken.
But he knew it wouldn't hurt him.
But he didn't expect to get a Dharma that was very deep in half a day, which was not of much use to him.
"Donor, do you need this Buddha statue? Can you give it to me if I don't need it? Monk Zhiyuan asked, but he felt embarrassed to ask this.
Just now I said how good this Buddha statue is, but now I want to ask for it. Of course, judging from Mu Yan's performance just now, he can also see that Mu Yan does not believe in Buddhism, since this is the case, it is useless to keep this Buddha statue, it is better to give it to him.
"Master, where is this a question of whether you need it or not?" Mu Chengqiang snatched the words, this is a thousand-year-old antique, how can he give it to others casually.
"This ......" Zhiyuan smiled bitterly, he really wanted this thing, but he also knew that this thing must be very expensive, and he couldn't afford it.
"Donor, please wait." Zhiyuan thought for a while and said, "I'll make a call." ”
He did make a call when he went out of the door, and came back after a while, "Donor, I have a friend who is very interested in this Buddha statue, if the donor is willing to help, he can come over now." ”
Mu Yan nodded, this Buddha statue was really of little use to him.
Zhiyuan did make a call and came back.
Mu Yan went to the room and took out a few strings of Buddhist beads and asked, "Can you help me look at these strings of beads as well?" ”
These strings of beads were found together with the Buddha statue, and they should be Buddha beads, but Mu Yan put them away separately, because he looked a bit like the rosewood craft bracelets sold in the world, so he kept them.
Zhiyuan took a few strings of beads, although the beads looked a lot of dust, which was also the reason why Mu Yan didn't have time to wash them, but Zhiyuan didn't underestimate them at all.
Instead, he took the beads very solemnly and looked at them carefully.
"This ......"
After looking at it for a while, he was surprised, "This should be the same material as the Buddha statue, and this should be a Buddha bead, tsk, this is also what you bought in the antique street?" ”
Mu Yan nodded, "Well, it's packed together." ”
"Donor, you picked up a leak!" Zhiyuan looked envious, this luck is too good, a piece of packaging turned out to be all priceless things.
However, Mu Yan was not too excited, although the red sandalwood that is more than a thousand years old is precious, he is not a mahogany collector, if it is just valuable, then it is useless for him to come.
The reason why I took it out just now was also to let Zhiyuan see if there was anything special about these rosewood bracelets, since there was none, then there was no need to take out other things.
Soon after, the buyer Zhiyuan said came.
"Hello, you just go to Mr. Mu Yanmu, right? I'm Ho Development. ”
The person who came was a pot-bellied man in his forties who looked like a boss.
"Boss He, look at this, this is the thousand-year-old Buddha statue I told you." Zhiyuan gave the Buddha statue to He Kaifang.
He Kaifa is a rural person, a rich generation, through his own hard work, and he is particularly fond of collecting all kinds of carvings, especially old mahogany carvings.
"Huh? This, this is the small leaf red sandalwood! He Kaifa recognized it at a glance, he has a lot of mahogany carvings in his collection, including many Buddha statues, although most of them are roses and rosewood, but there are still some of them with small leaves of rosewood. That's why I developed this discernment skill.
He took out a magnifying glass, looked closely, and used other methods, such as soaking it in water, or examining it with some small instrument he had brought.
However, the more he looked at it, the more solemn his face became! And he shook his head from time to time.
"Boss He, do you see anything?" Mu Chengqiang was tickled by his appetite and couldn't wait to ask.
He Kaifa did not answer him, but continued to observe, but he was doing the same thing, as if he was very disbelieving in the measurement results, and had to repeat the measurement many times.
"It's incredible! It's incredible! (To be continued.) )
