After some bargaining, in the end, Misa Aida talked about the price to 7.8% off the original offer, that is, 117 million yen. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Although this price is much higher than her own estimate and Li Yi's request, Li Yi is already very satisfied, 7.3 million soft girl coins, and these two things, after verification, are likely to be worth more than 7 million US dollars!

5x the profit!

"Excuse me, Mrs. Akemi, can you find a few more of these things for me? Yes, you don't ask for a country, you don't ask for a dynasty, it's all casual, as long as it's a good thing. ”

After the transaction, Li Yi tried to make a new request. Akemi hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed to go up and ask again.

This time, she basically didn't delay too much, just went out for a few minutes and came back. Moreover, she did not come back alone, she was followed by an elderly man with a thin and haggard face.

"Your Excellency Makoto Sakaibe, I'm very presumptuous to disturb you!"

As soon as he saw the old man, Aida Misa bowed deeply, and Li Yi observed Sakaibe's expression with interest, why, the reason why he was reluctant to come down before was because he thought he had no purchasing power?

"Mr. Li Yi, I'm very sorry that I couldn't communicate with you at the first time. I heard Akemi say that you still want to buy some precious antiques, and you don't need a country or dynasty, is that so? ”

After saying hello to Makoto Sakai and Misa Aida, he shifted his attention to Li Yi.

"Yes, Mr. Sakai, although I am a Chinese, I am a true collector, and as long as it is valuable, I desire to have it."

"Alright, please come with me."

Li Yi followed Makoto Sakai to the second floor, and Misa Aida hesitated and followed with Gu Feng.

"Ten years ago, the Sakai family also had a very glorious history, but unfortunately...... Mr. Li, the rest of the things are in this room, you can choose whatever you like. ”

Makoto Sakai led Li Yi into the study, pointed at him casually, and then walked to the rattan chair to the side and sat down.

"Is it all here?"

Li Yi raised his eyebrows, and recognized the bookcase on the left at a glance, it should be an antique that is a little old, and the material is also quite good, it should be made of Huanghuali in Hainan.

It's just that he didn't have the ability to get this big antique back, so he just glanced at it in a hurry and shifted his attention to the desk on the other side.

This desk is also a piece of furniture made of mahogany, and it should be older than the bookcase, but it is also too large to be shipped back to China.

On the desk, there is a slightly yellowed rice paper, and on the pen stand hill next to the rice paper, there is a brush, and the traces of the pen can be seen in the pen wash on the side.

"Was Mr. Sakai practicing calligraphy just now?"

Li Yi said with a smile, looked down at the content written on the rice paper, and was suddenly stunned, no, this is actually an unframed ancient calligraphy work!

"It's ......"

This is a Chinese character cursive work, look at the handwriting, and Huaisu is somewhat similar, look carefully, and there are some traces of Ono Daofeng.

"Jingyun: The one who can benefit from the most victorious, this is a mature bodhisattva; The one who can give the will with the most victory, according to the immature bodhisattva......"

Li Yi thought about it for a while, and then remembered that this should be a translation of the "Vajra Prajnaparamita Sutra", but he couldn't remember who made this translation.

He carefully studied the handwriting of this calligraphy, and then looked at the inscription at the end, and suddenly realized in his heart that this calligraphy was actually a fragment of the "Translation of the Vajra Prajnaparamita Sutra" written by Master Kukai, who was known as one of the three strokes of Heian in Japan!

Japan's Heian period began in 794 AD, when Emperor Kanmu moved the capital from Nara to Heiankyo (present-day Kyoto), and ended in 1192, when Minamoto Yoritomo established the Kamakura shogunate. In Japan, this is an era of connecting the past and forging ahead into the future, and it is a golden period in the history of Japanese calligraphy.

In this era, the three Heian brushes emerged in the early days, namely Kukai, Emperor Saga, and Tachibana Yise. In the middle period, there were three traces of Japan, namely Ono Michiho, Fujiwara Saori, and Fujiwara Yukinari. In the later period, kana calligraphy emerged, thus forming a unique Japanese calligraphy of "Japanese style", and the calligraphy of China at that time was called "Tang style", forming two camps of bimodal confrontation.

Master Kukai is the originator of Japanese calligraphy, the sage of Japanese calligraphy, and a Buddhist master. He is the founder of the Shingon sect of Buddhism in Japan. In 804 A.D., Chang'an studied Esoteric Buddhism, inherited the two pure Esoteric Realms of the Vajra Realm and the Tibetan Realm, and was awarded the eighth generation of ancestors by the seven ancestors of Tantric Buddhism in China at that time, Hui Goa Jali.

Kukai's calligraphy, known in Japan as Daishi-ryu, was inherited by Ono Michifu and Fujiwara Yukinari in the later calligraphy world, and its influence has continued even to this day!

"Mr. Sakai, this calligraphy ......"

Makoto Sakai smiled and said, "Although this calligraphy is only a fragment, its value as a work of Kukai Master is also immeasurable. If Mr. Li Yi wants, then it will be cheaper, 35 billion. ”

With a "poof", Misa Aida, who had been standing carefully on the side, sprayed first, and then, Li Yi, who heard Gu Feng's translation, couldn't help but smile bitterly.

35 billion, equivalent to almost 2.2 billion soft sister coins, this old guy really dares to make a bid!

But he doesn't have much to say about this price, because the initiator of this phenomenon happens to be himself! You must know that Ono Michifeng's "Edict of the Master of Wisdom" was auctioned by him for a sky-high price of 6.9 billion Hong Kong dollars, compared to that, this price is already very gentle and gentle!

"Hehe, Mr. Li Yi, I'm sorry, I made a joke with you, forget about this one, even if you buy it, I don't think I can bring it out of Japan, but there will be a lot of trouble......"

Li Yi nodded, indeed, this kind of transaction is different from picking up leaks, as long as there is a trace of news leaking, not to mention that the work will be taken away from Japan, as long as the work is still in his hands for a day, it is estimated that it will be difficult for him to leave Japan.

With a sweep of his gaze, Li Yi shifted his attention to the pale cyan brush wash on the side. The style of this brush wash is very simple, it is the shape of a high-sided plate, and there is no engraved print, but Li Yi recognizes that this is a very precious porcelain.

"How much does this Ru kiln pen wash cost?"

In fact, there is no need to ask the price of everything on the spot, but the price of the calligraphy just now has no reference value at all, so Li Yi also needs to confirm what level Sakaibe's quotation is.

If this Ruyao brush wash is put up for auction at auction, Li Yi estimates that its price should be between 10 million and 12 million soft sister coins. If Sakai's offer was within this range, even if it was a little higher, he would have taken it down, considering the factor of saving the auction house's commission, after all, there are many times things like this that money can't buy.

"This one, 170 million."

Sakai thought for a moment and directly gave a fairly reliable price, in fact, many buyers would not be willing to put the collection up for auction if it were possible, after all, except for a very small number of rarities, auction houses generally do not waive the seller's commission. Moreover, once it is auctioned, the transaction will be under supervision, and that part of the tax is really painful.

Roughly understanding Sakai's quotation level, Li Yi didn't ask any more, and began to look for them one by one.

On this desk, in addition to these two things, there is another thing that is also quite precious, that is, a very inconspicuous porcelain pen holder placed aside.

Generally speaking, most of the ancient pen holders are made of ceramics, bamboo and wood, according to the literature, there should be gilding, jadeite and other made of pen holders, but now what can be seen, the age is relatively old, most of them are made of bamboo and wood, which of course is related to the porcelain is not very easy to preserve.

This pen holder, Li Yi thinks it should be a product of the Longquan kiln of the Song Dynasty, although it is far less precious than the five famous kilns, but the long time has also doubled its value, Li Yi estimates that this piece is at least close to 1.5 million soft sister coins.

Similarly, no matter what the value is, no matter what the variety, being able to pass it down from the Song Dynasty is a very precious treasure in itself, so Li Yi has listed it as one of the goals that must be brought back in his heart.

On the desk, there are some other cultural relics, and in a stack of ancient books on one side, there are three Ming engravings and two court engravings from the early Qing Dynasty, but the value of these things is a bit insignificant compared to a few pieces of rare porcelain, Li Yi just glanced at it roughly, and decided to ask the price by the way later, take it if it is suitable, and it doesn't matter if it is not suitable to give up.

After reading the things on the desk, Li Yi walked to a Bogu shelf placed against the wall, just now he noticed that the porcelain placed on it is very similar to the products of the Cizhou kiln, and at this time, sure enough, these pieces are not only produced by the Cizhou kiln, but also the age is basically from the Song and Jin dynasties, in the ancient porcelain of the Cizhou kiln series, it can be said that it is quite a top existence.

"This ......"

After looking at a few pieces of ancient porcelain from Cizhou kiln, his eyes flashed, and he picked up a dark brown porcelain flat pot and looked at it. The shape of this flat pot is roughly similar to the Song Dynasty flat pot I have seen before, but some subtleties, if you pay attention, you can still see that there are many differences.

Especially in the ornamentation, the periphery of this flat pot used a blank technique to write a circle of strange words, Li Yi looked at it for a long time and found that no one knew it!

"Is it Japanese? No, Japan at that time did not have such superb technology, which should be the writing ...... of which ethnic minority" (to be continued.) )
