Chapter 110 Cloud Dragon Pattern Small Leaf Rosewood Go Kang Table
A clerk carefully moved a red sandalwood kang table in, put it down lightly, and it could be seen that the young man's forehead was already sweating.
Hu Li asked him to bring the red sandalwood kang table over, although it was a trust in him, Kumho auctioned twenty or thirty employees, and only three or five people were qualified to go into the warehouse to get things, but this is also a pressure for young people, this red sandalwood kang table is priceless, it is said that the price of gold is about the same, if he bumps into it, he can't afford to lose the money he earns for a lifetime.
The understanding and use of rosewood in ancient China began at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it was recorded in the "Ancient and Modern Notes" of Jin Cui Bao, which was called "red sandalwood, out of Funan, purple in color, also known as red sandalwood." ”
In the Ming and Qing dynasties, red sandalwood was valued by the royal family and was almost cut down, so later the small leaf red sandalwood was very valuable, and it can be said that the price of high-quality old sandalwood was about the same as gold.
Therefore, look at this young man, be cautious, for fear that something will accidentally go wrong.
Hu Li touched the diamond ring twice with an excited face, and pointed to the table and said: "The kang table of Xiaoye Zisandalwood, the treasure of Emperor Qianlong, the full name should be the Yunlongwen Xiaoye Rosewood Go Kang Table, there is a clear record of this table in the archives of the Forbidden City."
The most precious thing about this table is actually the cloud dragon pattern on this tabletop, some parts of these two dragons are naturally formed patterns, and some are artificially carved to form such exquisite patterns. The dragon is a five-clawed golden dragon, carved according to the natural form of the crab claw pattern of the small leaf red sandalwood, which can be said to be ingenious and extraordinary. ”
Speaking of this cloud dragon pattern small leaf red sandalwood Go kang table, Hu Li couldn't say how proud he was, not to mention how bright the smile on his face was. Think about it, the treasure used by Emperor Qianlong, pressed in his hand, that is the treasure of Zhenshan, with this thing, people in the line dare not underestimate Hu Li at any time.
It can be said that this thing is the foundation of Kumho Auction House's foothold in Jincheng and even in the country. No wonder Hu Li was so excited at this time, almost a bit of a show off.
However, looking at this cloud dragon pattern small leaf red sandalwood kang table, it is indeed a treasure, using the natural texture of red sandalwood carving can be described as ingenious and magical.
The two dragons hovered above the auspicious clouds, lifelike, and the engraved patterns as thin as hair made people have to admire the ingenuity of the ancients.
Even if Li Chun is a little resentful of Hu Li, but he is also a person who loves antiques, therefore, at this time, when he sees this kind of exquisite furniture, he has to be convinced, he sees things well, he doesn't have this thing in his hands, although Li Chun is not very happy, but he can't say anything.
And Zhou Shichang directly praised and said: "Good things, indeed good things, this old red sandalwood furniture is not much, such as the table top of this kang table, although it is made of two small leaves of red sandalwood, but, no matter what it is, it is also a good thing."
Lao Hu, you really leaked now. It's like this kind of thing, to be honest, it's a priceless treasure, and I don't know that guy Weishenme will sell you this kind of treasure. ”
People who love antiques, generally speaking, will not easily sell their beloved antiques casually, especially the small leaf red sandalwood, which has a very large appreciation potential for antiques.
Hu Li was very proud of Zhou Shichang's envy, and said with a smile: "Actually, this time I really picked up a bargain, and this thing was like I ordered it at that time."
Originally, it turned out that the owner of this kang table would not sell this thing to me, and people were not bad for money, the descendants of the prince, not to mention anything else, and later implemented the policy, and there was a courtyard house in the third ring.
However, I didn't expect that this son's son had settled abroad and wanted to take him over to see his grandson, but there was no way, so he was in a hurry to go out, so he sold this heirloom to me. Otherwise, no matter how high the price is, it will be impossible for me to take this thing down. ”
Although Hu Li was proud, he never made it clear how much money he used to take this thing down, after all, this is also a taboo in the industry.
How much money to take down this cloud dragon pattern small leaf red sandalwood Go kang table, that is Hu Li's ability.
As for this question, even the youngest Song Jun didn't ask how much this kang table was bought, and if he asked, it would make others laugh.
At this time, Hu Li glanced at Li Chun proudly and said, "Shopkeeper Li, what do you think of this thing, can this thing still enter your eyes?" ”
This can be regarded as a report and a report, Li Chun just said in a weird way that he wanted to open his eyes, and at this time, Hu Li asked a sentence-for-tat.
Li Chun was a little embarrassed, fluted for a moment, carefully looked at Xiaoye Zisandalwood, narrowed his eyes, and no one knew what Li Chun was thinking at the moment.
That kind of look is like a pool of water in the deep mountains, unfathomable.
After a while, Li Chuncai opened his eyes and said, "I don't know if Boss Hu has a red sandalwood town here?" ”
I don't know if Li Chun really saw anything, or if he deliberately wanted to go toe-to-toe with Hu Li to the end, anyway, he started to ask for the red sandalwood ruler.
This is actually a way to identify rosewood, use the red sandalwood ruler to knock on this kang table, if it is really a small leaf of red sandalwood, the sound should be crisp and pleasant, there is no noise at all, if the thing is not very good, then the result is not easy to say.
Hu Li was confident that there was nothing wrong with his own things, so he also pretended to be generous and said: "It seems that Shopkeeper Li has his own opinions, so it's okay, come on, take out my red sandalwood ruler and give it to Boss Li." ”
The young man who came with the kang table just now sent the red sandalwood ruler straight over. Li Chun was also not polite, took the red sandalwood ruler and said: "Shopkeeper Hu, you are ugly, if you say anything offended, bear with me." ”
This in itself is an assessment of Hu Li, so it is not a big deal for Li Chun to take out his real skills to verify the authenticity of this little leaf red sandalwood.
Therefore, Hu Li's face was relaxed, and he waved his hand with the attitude of a victor and said: "Everyone communicates with each other, learns from each other, there is no big deal, if you have any opinions, although the shopkeeper Li mentions, if there is no change, he will be encouraged." ”
This interview was very polite, but as for what kind of result is behind it, it is really hard to say.
Li Chun did not knock on the red sandalwood kang table first, but picked up the kang table with both hands and weighed it a few times in his hands.
This action is actually to weigh whether such a large table is the weight of small leaf red sandalwood.
Because the specific gravity of rosewood is heavier than water, this thing will sink to the bottom if thrown into the water.
Therefore, using such a method is also an important means to distinguish rosewood. Naturally, such a means is not something that anyone can be qualified to use.
Because even if there is a gap between the real red sandalwood and the fake red sandalwood, the gap is very small, and it is not something that ordinary people can measure.
If you want to really weigh it out, you haven't ever had seven or eight hundred pieces of small-leaved red sandalwood, so you basically don't want to practice such skills.
