Chapter 44 The glazed tiles are strange
When he arrived at the Guangzang Pavilion of Panjiayuan, there was no business in the store in the afternoon, Qin Wei first threw Liu Yuhao to Master Wang, and hurriedly went upstairs to see what other objects in the warehouse could make Xiong Yuanzhen look at.
Master Wang was wiping a pair of tortoiseshell glasses that he had just received at noon, and the eyes were just an object from the end of the Qing Dynasty, not very valuable, but they were recovered by Master Wang for 400 yuan, and if they changed hands, it would not be a problem to sell them for 2,000 yuan. No matter how good it is, it is better than what is sold in those craft stores.
This is also one of Qin Weixian's ways to make money, and it makes sense that this Guangzang Pavilion has been able to persist all these years. In the general antique shop, unless it is introduced by an acquaintance or friend, if you have poor eyesight, you can buy handicrafts by yourself. Kozokaku is one of the few antique shops that labels old objects and crafts and sells them separately.
Liu Yuhao sat there alone and felt bored, so he was ready to get up and go back to school. When he was about to leave, he knocked on the door, and a middle-aged man came in with a box in his hand, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked, "Who in your store can call the shots?" βγ
One of Master Wang's apprentices greeted him and glanced at the man, "Are you buying or selling, you can make it clear, and I can help you find someone." β
The man took out the box from his arms and opened it: "Little brother, how much do you think this can be worth?" β
The little apprentice couldn't help but laugh when he saw the things in the middle-aged man's box, and said impatiently: "I said that this gentleman is fine, are you teasing me, just see the stall outside with this object?" No one can go, go, go, don't have anything to do, it's uncomfortable to find it. β
Well, in the blink of an eye, you will become you, and you will turn your face when you say it.
"Take a closer look at me, but there's something in this thing, it's okay, I can come here, I don't have to make you laugh at it."
When the middle-aged man saw that the apprentice was going to drive himself out, he was anxious, and hurriedly took out the contents of the box and turned it over so that the apprentice could see what was inside.
Seeing the things that the man took out, Liu Yuhao, who was drinking water, almost didn't spray a sip of tea on the face of the right master Wang. What the man took out was a glazed tile. Hehe, this thing is really like what the little apprentice said, and everyone who sets up the stall should consider it. Master Wang Xijing heard his apprentice and others arguing outside the door, his face was displeased, he glanced outside, and coughed vigorously.
The little apprentice was still a little clever, seeing that there were really a few in the glazed tiles, he didn't come in with his own ideas, attached it to Master Wang's ear, and whispered a sentence to explain the reason clearly. Master Wang frowned, thought about it, and became interested, so he said, "Let that person take it in and take a look." β
"Come in and sit in the shade, and I'll pour you water."
With the master's instructions, the little apprentice Ma changed his face again, smiled and welcomed the man into the Guangzang Pavilion.
took the box that the apprentice brought over, and Master Wang wore reading glasses, so he took a slow look.
"Pretend, Master Wang, just pretend."
Looking at the careless appearance of Master Wang, Liu Yuhao almost couldn't help laughing, in fact, Liu Yuhao knew the rules of this antique shop, Master Wang's appearance was not pretending, it was a professional habit he had developed in this business for many years.
"Insects eat rats, bite the board, there is no hair, and the skin is torn." This line is estimated that everyone is familiar with this antique shop and pawn shop, in fact, it is a surname, that is, to make every master who enters the door feel that what he brings is a piece of garbage that everyone abandons, this means is nothing more than to bargain for profit and maximize his own interests, as a businessman, it is actually understandable.
Since the first pawn shop in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, this characteristic antique has been passed down from generation to generation.
The inside of the box is a Qing Dynasty green glazed cylinder, and the strange thing is that there is an ink book in the wattle. The ink book existed under the rust spots, and it was obviously written in the old days, which made both Master Wang and Liu Yuhao interested.
Look at the middle of the back of Nawa is painted in the middle of a talisman on the right: Lu Gongyang out of the great sage; The first book on the left: The gentleman asks the immortals. Several are old-fashioned traditional characters.
"This glazed tile is weird!" This was the first thought that flashed into Liu Yuhao's mind at that time.
Glazed tiles are often used in temples or palace places. This tube tile comes from the capital, but the specific origin is unknown. It seems to be related to Buddhism. LΓΌ Gongyang usually refers to LΓΌ Chunyang among the Eight Immortals of Taoism. The addition of the phrase "out of the great sage" is even more puzzling. Therefore, it is possible that it is out of the palace hall rather than the temple.
"This gentleman, this tile seems to have some origin, but there is no provenance, and the object is not valuable, I estimate that what is written on this side is a blessing, which means that the owner of the house in the past placed it under the eaves."
Master Wang clapped his hands, shook his head with a smile, and picked up the teacup, which obviously meant to tell the man that our Guangzang Pavilion would not accept this thing, and let the man go.
This glazed tile was originally understood by Liu Yuhao, and he couldn't understand the meaning of those things, and the meaning of Master Wang's explanation was also easy to understand. But Liu Yuhao just felt that there was something strange about the glazed tile, so he secretly unfolded his Eight Brocade Technique to see what was going on. This look made Liu Yuhao's heart flutter.
Like the purple clay pot, before Liu Yuhao could display the deerskin atlas, he saw that there was an object in the raised part of the leading edge of Nawa. Take a closer look at what was inside and it was a jade wrench.
After seeing clearly that the thing in the glazed tile was indeed a wrench, Liu Yuhao put away the Eight Brocade Technique, picked up the glazed tile, loaded it with clothes, and looked at it with interest.
"Look, I've asked many people about this tile, and they all said no. Otherwise, if you give some money, you can take it, and I don't want to run anymore. β
Seeing that Master Wang wanted to drive himself out like the previous stores, the middle-aged man was depressed. After running for half a day, I was already tired of running, and I knew that this tile was indeed worthless, so I threw away my original thoughts, and I thought in my heart that I could sell a few dollars, and I counted a few of them, and the round-trip fare was to earn back.
When Liu Yuhao heard what this person said, he felt a little like running away.
This person is really an honest person, you ran a lot of homes, it's true, people don't accept you, this glazed tile is also true, but it's wrong to say it, what's wrong? You are stupid when you are a man's Guangzang Pavilion, everyone doesn't want it, and you have to ask for it?
