Chapter 308: Guess what's going on?
Most of Hetian jade is monochrome jade, at most it is the true color of the jade plus the skin color to become two-colored. Therefore, the scarcity is expensive, people are favored for the three-color or more Hetian jade, in the Hotan area, there has always been a "family with three-color jade, better than ten thousand loads of grain" said.
But in fact, if you count the skin color, not to mention the two-color jade, even the three-color Hetian jade is more common. For example, Hetian jade, which is called "blue and white" in the industry, is already black and white or black and blue and white. Moreover, most of the black jade is mixed with white or off-white, and once these materials are matched with red and yellow skin colors, it is naturally a three-color jade.
Therefore, the truly valuable multi-color Hetian jade should be four-color or even five-color jade, and the greater the color contrast, the more evenly distributed, and the better and more precious the jade quality.
Hetian jade can be roughly divided into six kinds of white jade, green and white jade, green jade, jasper, black jade, sugar jade, etc., and the color of these six kinds of jade materials is actually changed within a range, such as green jade, its color has blue to dark blue, gray, yellow and green and other medium or dark colors, and the contrast between this series of colors is not large, so it is often not called multicolor.
But now the rough stone in Li Yi's hand is a real multi-colored material, just by looking at it, he found that there are at least four colors, and they are black, white, yellow, and blue, which are four contrasting colors!
If you add the marble gray of the stone skin, this piece of material is five-color jade, as long as the texture is not bad can not be raised, in the eyes of any jade carver, it will be a peerless treasure, if the design is exquisite, you can definitely carve a hand-me-down work that can get the international gold medal!
Li Yi took a closer look, the texture of this piece of material is quite delicate, the mineral crystal particles are uniform in size, slightly transparent, the whole piece of material is basically free of cracks, impurities and some other common defects, and the grease luster is also relatively strong, and the texture itself belongs to a rare piece of good material.
The grade of Hetian jade texture is generally divided into four levels: special, one, two, and three, and this piece of material, if it is according to the standard of more than ten years ago, it is also a level, but now, only the appraiser needs to raise his hand slightly, and the absolute special grade is not negotiable!
Moreover, when Li Yi was still inspecting the texture, he found a reddish-brown ribbon about two millimeters wide and narrow, along the gap between the yellow and blue colors, like a swimming dragon, five or six centimeters long, six colors!
Even if you don't count the stone skin, this is a real five-colored jade!
After a while, he sighed lightly, what a fly in the ointment!
Because, there is still a kind of cyan missing, and the six colors of this material are all accounted for! And the color of this piece of jade is not too even, the position of two of the colors is still more awkward, not easy to deal with, if you want to use it to carve a beautiful masterpiece, it takes a lot of brains.
But in any case, this is a great piece of material. And judging from the boss's attitude towards this piece of material, it is not even as good as the brick material in a piece of jadeite.
Sure enough, the unit price of this piece of material is only 200 yuan, and it is not about grams, but about kilograms, a piece of more than ten kilograms of material, and in the end it only cost Li Yi 2000 oceans, which is just like picking it up for nothing!
And how much can this piece of material be worth after it is carved? Li Yi thought about it, if it was a grandmaster-level figure like his master Hu Zhiyuan, he would be afraid that it would cost hundreds of millions of dollars casually, right?
Oh buy ga, 2000 becomes 100 million, a full 50,000 times!
Fifty thousand times! It's enough to make anyone feel dizzy and incredible! Even compared to Brother Monkey's 108,000-fold somersault cloud, it is only twice as bad!
The excited Li Yi began to think crankily again, and even Brother Monkey's somersault cloud was made out by him!
After a while, he decided that when he went home, he would untie part of the stone skin of this piece of material, and then he would personally send it to Hu Zhiyuan's eyes, and then hide aside to enjoy the surprise of the grandmaster-level jade carving master!
In other words, Master, he is an old man, there is nothing wrong with his heart, right?
Now, a piece of superb multicolored jade, a masterpiece of real and fake, and the imitation is still the work of the new generation of Ding Yi......
Li Yi didn't have the heart to turn it any further, and after thinking about it for a while, he decided to go to Zhong Haoqing first, and let her see the painting first, because even if he unlocked this piece of superb jade now, he couldn't send it back!
Zhong Haoqing was not too surprised by Li Yi's second visit in one day, especially after seeing the painting bucket in this kid's hand, he was even more sure that he had either encountered a problem or came to show off.
And with this guy's behavior, coupled with the fact that the thing is already in his hands, Zhong Haoqing concluded that this kid is 100% showing!
If you've ever been a parent, you know what it's like to have your child in front of you. Therefore, Zhong Haoqing decided to cooperate with him well, even if he was not so surprised later, he must make a surprised appearance, since the child is willing to be close to her, and she only needs to pay a little more expression, why not?
Unexpectedly, when she really saw this painting with the couplet, she was really surprised! And Li Yi also saw Zhong Haoqing for the first time actually bring out a large collection of paintings and calligraphy, and honestly checked the information!
"The skill of this painting is okay, only slightly worse than our old Hu, but I don't recognize whose imitation painting it is...... Strange, could it be the hand of Ding Yichu of this generation? But you didn't find the secret mark? ”
Ginger is really old and spicy! Li Yi secretly gave his master a thumbs up in his heart, and it only took a long time to draw a correct inference from a seemingly simple clue.
Why say it's deceptively simple? Obviously, Zhong Haoqing deduced Ding Yi because she couldn't recognize whose imitation painting it was, and this means that all the painters who have the ability to paint this level of painting in this era can be identified except Ding Yi!
How profound and confident is this?!
Master's appraisal of calligraphy and painting is definitely at the level of a grandmaster!
"As for this couplet, I'm afraid you saw it right, this should be Qi Baishi's real handiwork! As for why this is happening, I don't understand. However, tomorrow's appraiser gathering, Liu Lao should also be there, and when the time comes, you can bring this painting and ask him, and you should be able to understand. ”
Li Yi nodded, in fact, after seeing this couplet for the first time, he also made up some information about Qi Baishi's works, with his current eyesight, in this couplet, some of Master Qi's pen movement characteristics are still relatively obvious, especially the overall feeling that this couplet gave him, he even felt that it should be a masterpiece of Qi Baishi!
"That's right, your feeling is right, I was also very impressed by the original painting back then, just in terms of the word couplet, it seems that it is indeed inferior to this one, so I said that I don't understand it either. However, like this kind of fine work, the painter himself will usually have a record, so I think Liu Lao should be able to figure it out. ”
This Liu Lao is the expert who has studied Qi Baishi for more than 60 years that Zhong Haoqing once mentioned when Li Yi called Zhong Haoqing after seeing this painting for the first time. Moreover, it is said that Liu Lao's hand also has a part of the notes left by Qi Baishi, if you are lucky, not to mention to determine the authenticity of this couplet, and even the story behind why this couplet has fallen here can be unearthed.
After having dinner with Zhong Haoqing, seeing that she was very interested in this calligraphy and painting, Li Yi left the calligraphy and painting, and was about to leave, Zhong Haoqing stopped him.
"You move your pot of demon eyes back, Lao Hu will stay in Hong Kong for a while, and I won't take care of these flowers and plants. By the way, he told me when he left, this pot of flowers should still be a little weird, since the last time you put it here, it hasn't been a few days, but the flowers we raised, it seems that some changes have occurred, you come here, I'll show you. ”
Li Yi's heart jumped, it was really weird! In an instant, he remembered the feeling he had after seeing the sycamore last night, and there was also a change?
He secretly clenched his fists, as long as there was a change, he could unravel the secrets of these strange plants through this change! What's more, it is possible to discover more secrets of the spirit card through these secrets!
The balcony of Zhong Haoqing's house is very large, and the width of the balcony is generally about one meter two, and this one, the widest point is definitely more than three meters, and it is also made into a semicircle at one end and a streamlined shape at one end.
The area of the entire semi-open balcony is more than 15 square meters, on this huge balcony, all kinds of plants are placed into a shape, just like an indoor garden, as soon as you come over, a refreshing fragrance that belongs to the unique fragrance of green plants comes to the face, Li Yi couldn't help but take two deep breaths, and suddenly felt that the mood was better.
"It used to be like this, but the fragrance was definitely not as strong as it is now. Also, you see, before this brazilwood was brought in by the Demon Eye, I felt that it was about to die, but now, several sprouts have sprouted, and this rubber tree, you look at this leaf, it looks like it is dripping......"
Li Yi squatted in the gap between the balcony plants, observed them one by one, and found that the growth of these green plants was very good, and almost all of them were verdant and dripping, and he couldn't help but stare at the demonic eyes that had almost no change.
"In the past, when the smog was strict, as long as the door of this balcony was still open, the pollution index in this room would have reached at least medium, but two days ago, the smog index outside had reached severe pollution, and we forgot to close the door......
Zhong Haoqing paused, suddenly looked at Li Yi with a smile, and asked:
