Mitsui Takawa and Mitsui Mitsura looked at this jade dragon chair at this time, and their saliva was about to drip down.

Is this the carpenter emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the jade dragon chair made by himself, this is worth it?

No wonder this chair is so exquisitely and beautiful, not to mention the jade carving, almost all the top craftsmanship used in ancient Chinese jade carving has appeared on this jade dragon chair.

And the most important thing is that this jade dragon chair is different from other ordinary jade objects they have seen, although it is not those ornamental tools, it can only be regarded as a practical device, but this practical tool is not those cups, dishes and saucers or something.

This is a dragon chair, which belongs to the category of furniture, from the category of antiques, the most valuable in the utilitarian utensils, even more valuable than ornamental vessels, I am afraid that it is the antiques of furniture.

And this jade dragon chair was produced in the Ming Dynasty at the peak of China's furniture development, and all the top furniture making technology at that time was used in this jade dragon chair.

In this way, this jade dragon chair is a collection of the top jade kung fu, as well as the top furniture making technology, such a jade dragon chair, in terms of artistry, there is no need to repeat.

And this jade dragon chair, the material used, not to mention, although it is not a top royal special wood like Jin Sinan, or red sandalwood, but it is made of the high-grade high-quality Lingrunzi material in Khotanese green topaz, which is a kind of gem, and the value is definitely not low.

The most important thing is that this jade dragon chair is the work of the carpenter emperor of the Ming Dynasty, so the meaning is even more different. It is equivalent to giving this jade dragon chair. Blessed with a special top-level item aura.

Here are a few key elements for antique furniture collections. But it's all there.

First of all, the material is an absolute high-grade material, although it cannot be regarded as top-level, but it is not much worse, which is the same as the high-grade high-quality Lingrunzi material in Khotanese topaz, even now, it takes tens of thousands of yuan a kilogram to buy.

In addition, the production process of this furniture is also the process of grinding and polishing. It's all top-notch, definitely the work of top-notch masters.

The last is this chair, but there is a heritage, when talking about the weight of history, you just need to say this chair, but the work of the carpenter emperor in the history of the Ming Dynasty, it is immediately equivalent to a magnifying move.

Anyone who dares to pretend to be a thorn in front of you will have to be crushed by this sentence.

So this chair is definitely a weapon to improve the B level!

Thinking of this, Takazu Mitsui and Mitsui Mitsura. Almost all of them would have been boiling, if it weren't for the presence of outsiders. The two brothers even wanted to raise their heads and howl loudly.

And at this time, let alone the two of them, even Kobayashi Kyosuke, who didn't know anything about this jade at all, looked at this chair, and was already stuck in it.

Although he didn't know how much this thing could be worth, he knew that this thing must be the top treasure.

Even when it comes to his status in the antique world, it will definitely not be lower than the Yao Chang Tianmu Bowl that he has studied all his life.

You must know that the kind of Yao Chang Tianmu bowl that he has studied all his life that makes the Japanese crazy, in fact, when it was first born, it was just a utensil used by ordinary tea ceremony lovers when fighting tea.

In the porcelain ranking of the Song Dynasty at that time, the Yaobian Tianmu bowl was just named the rabbit bowl, but it was just a tea set used by ordinary folk rich people to fight for wealth.

In the end, it was the fame of the folk fight that attracted the attention of the emperor of the Song Dynasty at that time, and finally sent a batch of fine products into the palace of the Southern Song Dynasty.

However, it was soon left behind by the officials of the Song Dynasty, after all, such a coarse porcelain bowl, whether in the Song Dynasty or in later generations, has not been regarded as the mainstream of the Chinese ceramic industry, and it can even be said that it has been difficult to reach the hall of elegance.

It was only later, after arriving in Japan, because of the struggle between the Tokugawa family and the Japanese imperial family, coupled with the miraculous history of the Mitsubishi chaebol later, that the indescribable mystery was added to this Yaobian Tianmu bowl, and it became famous in the world antique collecting circles.

And the jade dragon chair in front of you, that's different, first of all, this thing is the most popular type in the antique world, precious materials, and top-level furniture.

And it was made by an emperor of the Ming Dynasty himself, and it must have been used by which emperor, so is this still necessary?

With such a gimmick and layer, if this chair is auctioned, the final transaction price must not break through the sky?

As soon as he thought of this, Kobayashi Kyosuke's heart also skipped a beat, and then he raised his head suddenly, looked at Yoshihiko Noda and asked.

"Noda-kun, are there many works of this carpenter emperor that have survived now? Is there still a collection at the Palace Museum in China? ”

"Ah...... This...... How is this possible? ”

Yoshihiko Noda smiled bitterly, then replied.

Kobayashi Kyosuke's eyes couldn't help but flash a look of disappointment, while Mitsui Takazu on the other side, after hearing this, suddenly burst into a gleam in his eyes.

That's good, this carpenter emperor, it seems that there are not many works handed down, so isn't the value of this chair higher?

It's a one-of-a-kind product! A one-of-a-kind piece!

"Actually, that carpenter emperor has created a lot of works in his life, but you also know that his identity is the emperor. And what he creates is not poetry and songs, or elegant literary and artistic works like paintings. It's just some furniture, or architectural models, and dolls and stuff like that. At that time, such things were deeply hated by the scholars and doctors in China, so after his death, many of the works he created, some of which were used as funerary objects and buried with him in the imperial tomb. There are many more, all of which have been collected by the royal family. But you also know that after this Zhu Youxiao, it was the last emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Chongzhen. Although this emperor was diligent in government, his ability was limited, coupled with his stubbornness and suspicious character, Nuoda's Ming Dynasty was defeated in his hands in only seventeen years. In the end, he hanged himself in the coal mountain, but Li Zicheng's peasant army, who entered Beijing, choked the Forbidden City enough. Especially the general under Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin is a rude peasant army general who doesn't know any art or elegant things at all. At that time, Li Zicheng had not yet entered the Forbidden City, but he led the army to break into the Forbidden City first, turning the inside upside down, and many treasures handed down from the Ming Dynasty were destroyed by him. So later, after the Manchurians entered the customs, they actually did not find too many works left by the carpenter emperor in the Forbidden City. ”

Yoshihiko Noda followed up and explained, and hearing him say this, Takazu Mitsui couldn't help but be even happier.

He is familiar with Chinese history, and he still has a certain understanding of the emperors of the Chinese dynasties, to be honest, he is not too interested in the history of the Ming Dynasty, but he also knows those emperors.

He had also read about this carpenter emperor, but he was not impressed, and now a chair suddenly appeared in front of his eyes, a chair made by the carpenter emperor himself, and the situation was different.

He now wanted to know more about this carpenter emperor, to put it bluntly, he seemed to know more about how many heirlooms this carpenter emperor had left behind, because the number of his heirlooms would definitely affect the final price of the jade dragon chair in front of him.

And now listening to Yoshihiko Noda say this, he feels like he can put his heart back in his stomach.

"So far, I seem to have heard of an heirloom made by the emperor himself."

"Oh? What's that treasure? ”

As soon as Mitsui and the two brothers heard this, they immediately cheered up, they didn't want another such chair to survive, in that case, if they collected this chair, but in the future, the value of the chair would be greatly discounted in terms of appreciation and promotion.

"Well, that's a black jade pen holder, it's very beautiful, and the name is also very good, it's called Jiangshan in the hand, and it is said to be carved out of Mount Tai as the prototype. It was originally collected by an antique enthusiast in Rongcheng, China, and according to him, it was an heirloom for his family, which had been passed down for generations. But after the news that he had a treasure made by Mingxi Sect was released, it has not been recognized by everyone, after all, it has been hundreds of years, and until now, everyone has never seen a treasure made by Mingxi Sect. Even the Manchurians, who later inherited the unification, failed to find the heirloom of Ming Xizong, how could you, a collector in Rongcheng, have it? Therefore, many experts in the Chinese collecting industry are skeptical of his pen holder. Until 2011, when China's domestic antique collection boom prevailed, China's CCAV organized several large-scale folk treasure hunting activities, in fact, it was to organize some of China's top treasure experts to tour around China, and then let the local people, with their own collection of treasures, come to identify. The second parade of the year went to Rongcheng, and the collector went to the scene with his black jade pen holder in his hand, and finally after several of China's top treasure experts, it took three days to demonstrate, identify, and everyone came to a unanimous conclusion that the black jade pen holder in the hand of the country was the heirloom made by Ming Xizong himself. At that time, as soon as this news was announced, it immediately caused a sensation in China, after all, this was the work of Ming Xizong, the first time it appeared! (To be continued.) )
