Chapter 314: The Bed Is Property

Yu Lifei really couldn't bear to tell them that the other accessories of this shelf bed were probably split into firewood and burned. But he still promised Yan Liqiang that he would try his best to find it. After all, he didn't go back to ask about the situation, and no one could guarantee that the accessories of the shelf bed were really burned. But he reminded Yan Liqiang to be prepared with both hands, and also asked Gao Yangang to find a way. In case there is no news from his side, he will have to ask Gao Yan to help him repair the entire shelf bed.

"It's natural, but if there's an original, even if it's shabby, I'm willing." Yan Liqiang said. If you use the current materials to make the doorposts and canopy, I always feel that there is no such charm.

"Of course, now this bed frame is worth a million. But if you have a gatepost and a canopy, you don't even want to buy it without two million. Gao Yan said.

"Lifei, if you can find all the accessories, I'll pay three million. Your dormitory and office buildings can not only be built, but also can be easily renovated. Yan Liqiang said with a smile. Although Yu Lifei is rich, but now he is an instructor at the police station, so he can't use his own money to subsidize the police station, right?

"Brother Qiang, don't you make me anxious? I've already turned the police station upside down, and if there were, I wouldn't have found out? Yu Lifei said with a wry smile.

"Maybe someone else took it? If it was taken by a private person, I would be willing to buy it back with money. Yan Liqiang said.

"Brother Qiang, don't worry, as long as you can find it, I will definitely send it for you." Yu Lifei said firmly.

"It's enough to have your words." Yan Liqiang said with a smile. Yu Lifei is still relieved.

"Mr. Gao, I've seen the Luohan bed, the shelf bed and the couch, and I've only seen the Babu bed in books, don't you know where there is a physical object to appreciate in Tanzhou?" Yu Lifei asked, since Gao Yan is a professional player, he is naturally well-informed. Although Yu Lifei opened a shop in the antique market, he had never seen a stepping bed.

"Absolutely. You've read the information. Can you tell us about the situation of the stepping bed? Gao Yan asked casually. Although Yu Lifei is young and looks like an apprentice, he really knows a little bit of everything, and how much he knows, others don't know the depth. At least as far as furniture is concerned, Yu Lifei is not a layman. I just don't know how much skill he has in judging the material of furniture.

"The step bed, also known as the eight-step bed, is the largest bed and the greatest bed invented by the ancients. The Babu bed is listed as "big bed" and "cool bed" in "Luban Craftsman's Family Background". In fact, it is two forms of pulling out the bed.

The stepping bed is a popular large bed in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and its uniqueness is that a 'small wooden house' has been added outside the shelf bed, which looks like the shelf bed is placed on a closed wooden platform, which is generally called: the horizon. The platform grows two or three feet from the front of the bed, and the four corners of the platform are inlaid with wooden fences, and some also install windows on both sides to form a corridor in front of the bed. It's small, but it's accessible to people. Walking into the cloister is like stepping into an interior.

There is a footrest in the middle of the cloister, and small furniture such as tables and stools can be placed on both sides to place sundries. In the past, there were no toilets, and most people put the toilet behind the bed. But the toilet bowl of the step bed can be placed at the end of the cloister. There is usually a dresser on the other side, so you can use it directly after waking up in the morning, which is very convenient.

The stepping bed is very large. There is a relatively independent range of motion in front of the bed, although it is used indoors, it is like a small independent house. It's like a room within a room. It's like a bed in a bed. Yu Lifei said.

It seems that Xiao Xiao does know something about the stepping bed, in fact, in addition to these materials, some literary novels also describe the pulling bed. For example, in the nineteenth chapter of Jin Zhumei: 'Ximen Qing was furious in his heart, and asked Li Bei'er to take off his clothes and kneel on the ground. If you don't know how to pull out the bed, you will feel that Ximenqing is unkind, so let Li Bei'er kneel on the ground. In fact, he left room for her not to kneel on the ground completely, but on the ground. The floor is also made of wood, and it still belongs to the scope of the bed, and Li Bei'er is kneeling on the bed. If you don't know about the marriage of the stepping bed, I'm afraid you won't be able to figure it out when you read the novel. Gao Yan said.

"I've read this book too, but I didn't expect there to be so much knowledge in it?" Yan Liqiang sighed.

"Isn't it, if you look closely at the golden plum, you can find that the stepping bed was already a very valuable piece of furniture at that time. Having this kind of bed in the home is a symbol of wealth. For example, when Ximen Qing married Meng Yulou in the third room, the matchmaker said: 'This Meng Yulou is a widow, she has a little money in her hand, and she has two Nanjing Babu beds. What does that mean? Until now, it means that she has money in her hands and two Mercedes-Benz BMWs, which is a huge amount of property.

In the composition of Meng Yulou's property, the matchmaker is relatively vague in other aspects. To be very specific, it is these two Nanjing stepping beds. Nanjing was already a very important city at that time, the Ming Dynasty was prosperous in commerce, and the stepping bed produced in Nanjing, like the Mercedes-Benz BMW made in Germany now, is a very important place of origin. Gao Yan said.

"Mr. Gao is really knowledgeable, and he can even remember these clearly." Yu Lifei said admiringly. In fact, he also had an impression, but he didn't study it like Gao Yan. At the time, he only read it as an adult novel, so where would he pay attention to the descriptions of these homes and furniture.

"Lao Gao, you said that the Babu bed is a symbol of wealth, how expensive is it?" Yan Liqiang asked a little unconvinced. His rosewood bed frame is already worth a million, can it be said that the stepping bed is more expensive than the rosewood shelf bed?

"In the ninth round of the golden bottle, Ximen Qing bought a black lacquer Huanmen painted gold bed with sixteen taels of silver, and after buying it, he bought two more rings. If you compare it, you will know the proportion of this value. This bed cost sixteen taels of silver, but what about the two rings? One is only five taels, and the other is six taels. One is 'on the stove Yahuan', that is, you can stir-fry vegetables, go to the kitchen to help, and have a bit of craftsmanship. But even if it were, it only cost six taels of silver. The remaining five taels, two rings and one ring on the stove, in order to top the price of a bed, you can imagine the value of this bed.

And the most annoying thing is that Pan Jinlian still thinks this bed is not good. In the twenty-ninth chapter later, he wrote: Because there is a good stepping bed in Li Bei'er's house, Pan Jinlian will make trouble. 'Immediately, I used sixty taels of silver to buy a Luodian open hall bed,' which is a stepping bed. At that time, it was already a very large amount of money to be able to buy twelve Yahuan. Gao Yan explained.

"Lifei, if you have the chance, you must help me buy an arhat bed and a stepping bed." Yan Liqiang said.

"Of course, there is no problem." Yu Lifei nodded.

"Mr. Yan, are you going to collect one of each of the four beds?" Gao Yan asked with a smile, even so, it can't be said to be complete. Each period of the bed has its own characteristics. It's impossible to collect them all.

"I'm going to put a couch and an arhat bed in the living room, and a hohat bed and a stepping bed in the room." Yan Liqiang said that Yu Lifei's villa is full of antiques. His living room is furnished with four Huanghuali chairs, and the dishes for eating are at least Qing dynasty porcelain, and some are even from the Ming Dynasty. And the teacups for drinking tea, the bed for sleeping, and even Yu Lifei's study are all equipped with that kind of lattice door.

"After the stepping bed is assembled, it is more than two meters eight, is your bedroom so high?" Gao Yan reminded.

"Wouldn't it, so tall?" Yan Liqiang asked in surprise.

"The houses in the Ming Dynasty were very large, and the height of some houses reached six or seven meters, so the stepping bed was actually a house within a house." Yu Lifei said.

"What I said makes sense, I know that there is a person who has a Babu bed at home, if you are interested, I can take you to see it one day." Gao Yan said that although he is an expert in furniture identification, he is not an expert in collection. Of course, he also has a lot of furniture, and he doesn't accept non-boutique products. But only the Babu bed is not available, mainly because there is no suitable place at home, if you buy it back and can only put it in the yard, it will be a tyrannical thing.

"Thank you, Mr. Gao." Yu Lifei said busily.

When Yu Lifei left, Yan Liqiang walked out with him, and he had already asked Gao Yan to estimate Yu Lifei's furniture. If Yu Lifei can find the accessories of the shelf bed, he can add more than one million. But even so, he felt that he could build a dormitory building and an office building. If it is only built and not renovated, these two buildings will only cost about two million. The current construction cost should be about 501 square meters, and this price is still the case of sufficient materials. If you cut corners, three or four hundred square meters can be built.

"Lifei, Lao Gao helped those furniture estimate the market price, about 2.8 million. If you can get all the accessories for that rosewood shelf bed, I can add another two million. Yan Liqiang said.

"According to the price that Brother Qiang said." Yu Lifei thought about it, this price is fair. After all, Yan Liqiang is a kick, he took all the furniture at one time, so he naturally wanted to give a discount.

"Lifei, what is the most lacking in the police station at the moment?" Yan Liqiang asked. He planned to hand over the money to Yu Lifei first, and after the dormitory and office building were built, he could settle with Yu Lifei.

"Now it's the car that affects our case. There were 26 people in our police station, but there was only a Santana and a van, and only two motorcycles. And all the vehicles are not in good condition, especially the van, which often lies on its stomach. Yu Lifei said.

"Is this good, money, I'll pay you first, and then you want to buy something, and then you can buy it." Yan Liqiang said. (To be continued......)
