"Similar to the jade bi are also jade rings, jade rings, the names of the three are determined by the size of the round hole in the center, the large hole is the jade, the small hole is the bi, and the aperture is equal to the edge of the jade part of the ring. Moreover, some of the jade bi have literary ornaments, and some are plain and without lines, so the jade bi has a better edge in terms of style. ”

"Zhou Li? Chunguan? The Great Sect Bo recorded: "With jade as the six vessels, to the four directions of heaven and earth: to the sky with cangbi, to the earth with Huang Cong, to the east with Qinggui, to the south with Chizhang, to the west with white amber, and to the north with Xuanhuang." In the "Sayings", Bi is explained: "Ruiyu, round ware." "It can be seen that jade was regarded by the ancients as an auspicious weapon."

"THE SIZE OF THE ORNAMENT IS SMALLER THAN THAT OF THE JADE AS A RITUAL OBJECT, AND IT IS GENERALLY BELIEVED TO BE WITHIN 10CM. Bi as an ornament is mainly popular from the Warring States period to the Han Dynasty, so the ancients have been wearing Bi for a long time. This should be the jade that you wore during the Warring States period. ”

"Warring States period, wow, that's more than 2,000 years, obediently knock, I almost threw it away a few days ago!" Lu Hong patted his chest and asked again, "Second brother, how can you be sure that this is from the Warring States Period?" ”

"In ancient times, jade was mostly used as a ritual or as a decoration, and there were also as gifts and burial vessels, as for the ornamentation, it was generally a cloud pattern, a pu pattern, a valley pattern, etc., in addition to animal patterns and flower and bird patterns." Xiao Rong's theoretical knowledge is still quite solid, and he talks about it eloquently at the moment.

Among them, the most important jade bi should be Subi, Guwenbi and Puwenbi, which first appeared in the Neolithic Age, and the most typical representative is the ancient jade unearthed by the Liangzhu culture. When it came to the Shang Dynasty, there was also Subi, which appeared as a ritual vessel, and then it was rare! ”

"Gu Wenbi and Pu Wenbi have been circulating for a longer time. to the Ming and Qing dynasties. There is also a grain pattern or pu pattern on one side. On the other hand, the jade of the flower and bird pattern, all the jade of the grain pattern or the pu pattern are mostly seen in the Warring States and Han Dynasties, and there are many fine products that have been handed down, in fact, as early as the Warring States Period, this kind of jade is very precious, mostly for ornaments and gifts! ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Rong handed the jade in his hand to Lu Hong and motioned for him to take a closer look. He continued to preach: "The Warring States Valley is patterned, and the jade is engraved with rows of dense small milk dices, and the milk cloves are generally swirl-shaped, like grain teeth, taking the meaning that the valley can be healthy!" ”

"Also, the Warring States Valley pattern is mostly carved by the high-grade green jade, touching the valley tooth has a moist feel, and exquisite, and the side of the bi is half a three-line pattern, one thick and two thin. In addition, the small hole on the inner side of the jade is thick on the outside and thin on the inside......"

The more Xiao Rong spoke, the more surprised Lu Hong became. The jade in his hand is exactly the same as what Xiao Rong said, and all the characteristics that Xiao Rong said are reflected in this small piece of jade, and then he really believes Xiao Rong's words completely.

"So, this is really from the Warring States?" Believe in it, Lu Hong still hopes that Xiao Rong will affirm again, although he is not short of hundreds of thousands of yuan now, but things like this more than 2,000 years ago are always available but not sought, and the collection is also quite good.

"That's right, this piece of small jade in your hand is an authentic Warring States Valley pattern, it's a pity that it is not very well preserved, and it is a little worn, but if it can be plated for a few years, it can still be revitalized!" Xiao Rong smiled and nodded.

"Disk? How to order? Lu Hong asked confusedly: "You teach me, can I do it myself?" ”

"You have to be busy with the things of the stove fish restaurant every day, so busy, how can you have time to get this, not to mention that you don't understand!" Xiao Rong shook his head and said, "I advise you to transfer it, let the people who really love and understand ancient jade go to the plate, so that this ancient jade can be restored to glory." ”

"That's it!" Lu Hong said a little frustratedly: "Okay, second brother, you know a lot of people in this area, you can help transfer it out." ”

"Okay, let's do it, I'll give you the money at the market price first, even if I collect it, I'll transfer it out when I meet the right one, and it will save you the trouble at that time, how about it?" Xiao Rong said with a smile.

"No problem, second brother, you look at it!" Lu Hong waved his hand absently.

"What do you look at?" The office door suddenly opened, and Zhou Dong walked in.

Lu Hong said what happened just now, Zhou Dong listened to it as if telling a story, snatched the jade in Lu Hong's hand and looked left and right, and there was a voice in his mouth: "Okay, Dahong, is there any treasure in your grandmother's house?" Dogs and rabbits can bring back a piece of Warring States jade, when will we try our luck? ”

"Don't say it, my grandmother's family has been circulating a treasure legend for thousands of years, and the story of Farewell My Concubine is known, right? It is said that Yu Ji's hometown is in a village next to my grandmother's house, and it has been said that Xiang Yu's treasure is hidden on the grassy mountain near the village for thousands of years. Lu Hong said proudly.

"No, how do I remember that there is a record that Yu Ji's hometown is from a township in MY County, Suzhou Province, why did she go to your grandmother's house again?" Zhou Dong asked suspiciously.

"Dahong, is the village you mentioned called Ta Village?" Xiao Rong suddenly interjected.

"Yes, second brother, how do you know Lu Dao?" Lu Hong asked strangely.

"That's it, I once read a piece of information, that is, about Xiang Yu's treasure." Xiao Rong smiled slightly and said: "According to the information, Xiang Yu took refuge with his uncle Xiang Liang in the area of Wuzhong Huiji in order to take refuge, lived in seclusion in the area of Xiangli Village, and was sheltered by local villagers. ”

After that, Xiang Yu recruited 8,000 Jiangdong children to train in the nearby grass mountain, casting twelve golden gongs to practice day and night, 80% of the quality of the golden gong is gold, 20% is copper, and it is worth a lot of money. On the eve of the army, Xiang Yu, in order to repay the villagers, ordered the soldiers to bury the twelve golden gongs near the grass mountain overnight, and carved the characters on the grass mountain to guide the twelve golden gongs. ”

"For more than 2,000 years, the character has been found in the mountains, but no one has been able to decipher the meaning of the character. There is also a legend that Zhang Dai, a famous scholar in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, stayed in Caoshan for several months, intending to solve the mystery of the characters, but ultimately failed to do so. When Qianlong heard about the legend, he went to the vicinity of Xiangli Village to investigate, but he was disappointed in the end. ”

Later, there were many people who wanted to decipher this character, some people said it was a scripture, some people said it was a tadpole text, and there was no agreement. But until now, no one has been able to crack this mysterious character, and Xiang Yu's treasure has become a mystery for the ages. ”

"Hear it, Dongzi, the second brother is called knowledgeable, don't show off your half-understanding!" Lu Hong said with a smile: "And we have some strange customs there, which are all evidence that Tacun is Yu Ji's hometown." (To be continued......)
