"Yes, why not? It's just..."Dong Tianyue said nervously, afraid that the proprietress would regret not selling it, but she couldn't be too eager.

Just now, with the help of the clairvoyant eye, Dong Tianyue clearly saw the meridians, texture and water color in the seal "meat", which was exactly the same as the description in the "Seal Stone Record" sent by his grandfather, so that the eighth layer is mugwort leaf green!

Dong Tianyue's heart was pounding, and he missed it! But he had to cover it up well, but he couldn't let the proprietress find out. Once detected, the leak will fail!

"Xiao Dong, what's wrong? It's too expensive, do you want to stop letting you 100? Seeing Dong Tianyue's stumbling, the proprietress knew that he probably wanted to bargain, so she asked tentatively.

"That's what you said, 800 is 800, I want this seal!" Dong Tianyue said. That's what he was waiting for. If this seal is really artemisia leaf green, it is worth at least 18,000, and if it is Dong Xun's work, it will be even more.

However, the trade of antiques can not be straight, even if you know that you have to pick up the leak, you have to check the big leak, you should not be too urgent, and the monkey will be in a hurry to reveal the flaw. At this time, the most need is calm, if the buyer with poor psychological quality can't help but tremble with excitement, you will be exposed when you meet a shrewd seller. You'd better pretend to cut the price again, of course, it's not a real cut, otherwise the boss will be nervous and won't sell, and you will cry to death!

The proprietress took the initiative to give 100 yuan, and Dong Tianyue naturally accepted it happily. If he pretends to be generous and feels that he has missed something, and he doesn't have to care about the 100 yuan of small money, it is likely to arouse the suspicion of the boss's wife. If the proprietress suddenly thinks of something and regrets not selling, Dong Tianyue will cry!

Fortunately, the proprietress wrapped Dong Tianyue with a smile, and gave him a small wooden box with a seal, which was ebony, although it was not in good condition, it was worth dozens of yuan.

Looking at the back of Dong Tianyue's departure, the proprietress breathed a sigh of relief, "Mom, I didn't expect this little Dong to be sick?" If this dies suddenly in my store, it will be unlucky, and maybe you will have to face a lawsuit! Hehe, a broken seal received for 300 yuan finally sent her away! Good luck today! ”

Dong Tianyue did not go back to school immediately, but found a place to rest on the side of a road. This is near the square, and the roadside is lined with greenery, and there are long wooden chairs every few meters under the trees for people to rest.

After a while, an old man sitting down next to him, about sixty years old, with kind eyebrows and kind eyes, dressed in a white Tang suit, looked very energetic. He carried a bird cage in one hand and a pair of shiny walnuts in the other, and looked like he was walking birds from the park to pass by for a break.

Dong Tianyue glanced at the old man, his gaze stopped at the bird, oops, what a parrot, blue eyes, it should be blue-eyed Badan, look at the pair of birds with feathers, they are about two or three years old. Look at the birdcage again, shouting, good guys, Qing Dynasty cloisonne birdcage! This old man is not simple!

The old man also noticed Dong Tianyue, and at first glance, he felt that Dong Tianyue looked a little intimate? Seems to have seen it somewhere? Then he saw the green seal in his hand, he was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "Young man, what a seal, can you let me get started with the old man?" ”

Dong Tianyue saw that this old man didn't look like a bad person, so he put the seal on the chair between the two of them and said with a smile: "Yes." It seems that the old man is a person in the circle, you can get your hands on this Qing Dynasty Ai Yelu seal, see if it is Dong Xun's authentic handiwork? ”

The old man was shocked, he didn't expect Dong Tianyue to do some homework on his own things.

"Well, I didn't know until I saw the real thing." The old man laughed.

The old man put away the walnuts, put the birdcage under his feet, picked up the green seal and looked at it, the more he looked at it, the more solemn his face became, and said, "Young man, good things! ”

"Tell me about it." Dong Tianyue said.

"Yes. Let's talk about the material first, this stone is dark green like mugwort leaves, translucent like jasper, and you can also see the scale-like structure, which is a typical mugwort leaf green Shoushan stone. This thing has been almost extinct since the Qing Dynasty, a rare good thing! The old man was full of praise while playing.

"Old man Gao Jian!" Dong Tianyue gave the old man a thumbs up, not to mention, he met an antique master early in the morning.

"Gao Jian can't talk about it, over the years, people have different opinions on the identification of artemisia leaf green, and there has been no unified statement. Old man, I agree with what Mr. Han Tianheng said in "Appreciation of Inkstone Seals". The old man said humbly.

Han Tianheng's teacher Dong Tianyue knows it, and his old man often mentions it. This person studied under Fang Jiekan, Fang Quji, Ma Gongyu, Lu Weizhao, Xie Zhiliu, Lu Yanshao, exaggeratedly, it can be regarded as a collection of hundreds of schools of thought into a family of painting and seal masters, especially in the seal carving identification is quite unique.

"Well, you're a little bit like a kid. You keep talking. Dong Tianyue said with a smile.

"Well, since you want to hear it, then I'll say a few more words." The old man laughed, and immediately pointed to the side paragraphs and inscriptions on the seal. The inscription is six characters "cautious words, diet and diet", the side paragraph is "Ji Wei March in Wumen Zhouci, Xiaochi", and the chapter name is the seal character "Su Guisheng".

Dong Xun's seal carving works are dedicated to the Qin and Han dynasties, and absorb the nutrition of Wen Peng and He Zhen of the Ming Dynasty seal carving masters. In particular, the word 'Koike' is chic and free, which is consistent with the original handiwork. At the same time, the shape of the cow in India and New Zealand is also a common gesture in the middle of the Qing Dynasty.

The six-character pen of "Careful Words, Diet and Diet" is strong and vigorous, and it seems to contain some kind of feeling. Is he admonishing the younger generations as an elder? Or is it a friend who is asking for a lot of money? My personal guess is the latter, for example, this businessman named Su Guisheng took the precious stone and asked the already famous old Mr. Dong Xun to carve the seal and give him a lot of money, and Dong Xun also needed this income to make a living. Hehe, it's pure personal speculation, and I laughed. ”

The more Dong Tianyue listened, the happier he became, this seal is not only the old chapter of Ai Yelu, but also Dong Xun's work, this time it is really missing! At the same time, he also admired this old man a little, he was really a master who could distinguish the real from the fake at a glance!

"Thank you old man for giving me a palm!" Dong Tianyue said with a smile.

"You're welcome, seeing each other is fate. Young man, do you keep this mugwort green seal for yourself, or do you plan to sell it? The old man asked.

Dong Tianyue thought for a while and said, "How can you say it if you keep it for fun, and what do you say about making a move?" ”

"If you keep it to play, you have to take good care of it, there is a lot of room for appreciation of this thing; If you want to sell it, I'll take it. The old man said cheerfully.

"Oh, you always want to? How much are you willing to pay? Dong Tianyue asked.

The old man held out a finger.

“1000？” Dong Tianyue asked with a smile, and the old man shook his head.

“10000？” Dong Tianyue asked again, and the old man shook his head again.

"Is it 100,000?" Dong Tianyue asked in surprise, and the old man nodded.

It is said that "one or two Tian Huang and one or two gold", Dong Tianyue thought that even if this seal was Ai Ye Green, it would not be more expensive than Tian Huang? Is it because it is Dong Xun's work?

"Young man, this mugwort green material is an old pit, and the price of 100,000 yuan is neither high nor low. The same seal, if it is replaced by the old Kengtian Huangshi, at least it will be more than 1 million! The old man said: "As for the old pit wormwood leaf green, it depends on the personal preference of the collector." If he likes Ai Yelu very much, and at the same time likes Dong Xun, you just pay 1 million, and he may buy it! ”

Dong Tianyue was a little excited, but also very moved. Generally speaking, buyers who want to buy things they like tend to be picky, while the old man is dedicated to the merits of the seal, and his character is admirable.

"Oh, that's right, let me think about it." Dong Tianyue said. This old man is a good man! However, Dong Tianyue felt that he couldn't sell the seal so hastily, this was the biggest leak he picked up this year, so he had to ask his grandfather.

"Oh, okay. If you want to change hands, you can contact me. The old man handed Dong Tianyue a business card.

"Okay, if I want to make a move, I will be the first to think of you, and I want to sell good things to people who know the goods!" Dong Tianyue said with a smile.

"Hehe, you kid has quite an appetite for me. It seems that you kid has been involved in the antiques industry for some years? The old man asked.

"Hmm. Yes. Dong Tianyue replied.

"Do you recognize my birdcage and walnuts?" The old man asked, and then took out a pair of smooth and round walnuts and put them on the chair.

Dong Tianyue glanced at the jujube red pulp of the walnuts and said, "What a pair of stars, the best!" Then he pointed to the birdcage and said, "The birdcage is the Qingjingtai blue birdcage, and the parrot is the blue-eyed badan." ”

The old man was slightly surprised and said: "Oh, it's rare, I didn't expect you to have good eyesight at a young age, and you're quite proficient in miscellaneous?" Can you tell how much they cost? The old man asked with some excitement, the young man can know the goods, and he can also know his goods, and the old man is generally a little happy.

"That pair of walnuts is the best in the starry sky, 100,000. The Qingjingtai blue bird cage should be worth about 800,000, and the pair of parrots is also the best of blue-eyed Bataan, and a pair will cost 50,000 or 60,000! Dong Tianyue said.

In fact, antiques and miscellaneous items are all-encompassing, how dare Dong Tianyue say that he is proficient in everything. Coincidentally, Dong Tianyue happened to be familiar with the three things that the old man asked. His grandfather also liked to walk birds and play with walnuts, so he was quite good at the antiques and miscellaneous items that the old people loved.

"Well, the little brother has good eyesight, where is he high now?" The old man asked.

"Still in school?" Dong Tianyue replied.

"Oh, if you want to work or study, you can call me." The old man said with an unfathomable smile.

Dong Tianyue was a little confused, and said in his heart that we are not very familiar with each other, so he asked me what I was doing at work?

"Nice to meet you, I'm leaving." The old man picked up the birdcage and left.

When the old man was gone, Dong Tianyue was a little curious about the identity of the old man, so he looked at the business card left by the old man: Gao Yide: Chairman of Yide Auction Company!

"Oops, I didn't expect this old man to be the chairman of Yide, no wonder he has such a high eyesight!" Dong Tianyue looked at the black spots where the old man was far away and exclaimed, and then thought, the old man asked me if I was going to work and study, I could call him? Do you want to introduce me to work at Yide Auction House? But I don't need to get an appraiser certificate yet, right?

"Well, I might think about it, if I could go to school and work at the same time." Dong Tianyue thought.

In the past two years, Dong Tianyue has been hiding and hiding. The so-called hiding is to hide what you like, buy and sell what you don't like, and keep what you think is more valuable. Except for those big tyrants and big collectors, they only enter and don't leave, and most of the people who play and collect are kept by Tibet.

With his amazing eyesight and carving skills, Dong Tianyue has indeed made a lot of money in the past two years. However, I also spent a lot, bought a 50-square-meter single apartment, and spent more than 500,000 yuan with decoration; I bought a Chery Qiyun car, which cost more than 70,000 yuan, plus the purchase of furniture or something, a total of nearly 600,000 yuan! Of the 600,000, 300,000 yuan was earned by him by hiding and raising Tibet, and the other 300,000 yuan was the red envelope money given by his parents and grandfather when he was born at the age of 20.

In his freshman and sophomore years, Dong Tianyue could still sell the antiques he had picked up and make some eyesight money, but not this year. Because this year's year-end assessment is to collect antiques, if you want to surpass your cousin, then keep more and sell less. In this case, if Dong Tianyue wants to make money, in addition to carving more seal works to sell, he can only work part-time. If you are working, going to an auction house is the first choice, you can not only earn money, but also learn skills, killing two birds with one stone.

"Well, I'll discuss this with my grandfather in the evening." Dong Tianyue thought to himself.
