Chapter Seventy-Four: The Ghost Market (continued)

Hou Yuanming took Chu Chen's words and said: "I have encountered a lot of this kind of thing, if you want me to say, it is still the problem of the young people themselves, anything can happen in this ghost market, and there are many liars and the like, and it is also thanks to him that he dares to follow others alone, and he has no vigilance at all." ”

Zhou Wenping also nodded: "But just like Xiao Chen said, those people don't dare to go too far, at most the young man will only spend some money." Besides, in this place of the ghost market, there are a lot of three religions and nine streams, if you want to take care of it, it is really inconvenient to have you girls here, if Xiaochen is alone today, he may be able to take care of it. ”

Chu Yulan and the others thought about it, after all, in this place where the black lights are blind, if they meet a few vicious people, Chu Chen is the only one who has kung fu, and there are many people on the other side, and he can't take care of them. However, listening to Zhou Wenping's meaning, Chu Chen really took care of this kind of thing, so Chu Yulan asked curiously:

"Brother Chu, have you also taught this kind of person a lesson?"

Chu Chen said a little embarrassedly: "It's in charge, but it's not in charge of everything, and you will only take care of it if you look too much." Okay, let's not talk about this, Xiaolan, looking at your appearance just now, it seems that you are particularly interested in chapter materials and the like, do you need this? ”

"Brother Chu, you should also know from my uncle that my grandfather is going to have his birthday in a while, and I want to give him a chapter material, but I haven't found anything satisfactory after looking for a long time, and if I go to the antique shop, I can't afford it, so I can only see if there is any harvest in this ghost market." Chu Yulan's face showed some sorrow.

"And how many days is left on your grandfather's birthday?" Chu Chen asked.

"There are four days left today."

Hearing that it was only four days, Chu Chen frowned a little: "Time is indeed a little tight, in this way, Xiaolan, don't worry, let's look here first, if not, I will help you inquire when I go back, let's not talk about the valuable, medium or medium materials, there is still hope to find them." ”

When Chu Yulan heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "Brother Chu, it's really you." ”

When they were about to continue their previous journey, they saw the young man just now, with a listless look on his face, and he didn't seem to be hurt, judging by his expression, it was estimated that he had spent money to eliminate the disaster.

Seeing this, Chu Yulan and they were also relieved in their hearts, after all, they had not really stepped into the society, and they still had a pure heart in their hearts, if the young people were physically hurt, they would also be uneasy in their hearts.

Next, everyone looked at dozens of stalls one after another, and basically everyone gained something.

Chu Yulan was lucky, and finally spent 17,000 yuan as she wished, and bought a Changhua bloodstone chapter material, which is of fine quality, bright and thick blood, delicate and delicate, like flowing clouds. If the normal price of the antique shop is concerned, this piece of material should be sold for 50,000 to 60,000 yuan, and she is quite satisfied with this piece of material.

However, Chu Yulan still likes Tian Huang Zhang's material in her heart, so she still bothered Chu Chen to help her find out if there was a suitable Tian Huang chapter material after she went back.

At this time, the sky was a little bright, Chu Chen looked at the things in his hand, and his expression was slightly disappointed.

He also bought two things just now, which are a good quality inkstone, and a Canglong godson jade buckle, both of which are things that open the door to the end, these two things cost him a total of 15,000, this price is only slightly lower than the price of ordinary goods, after all, the antique industry is not always leaked to pick up.

Chu Chen's money to open an antique shop is enough now, and the store is not worried for the time being, but the things in the antique shop can't always be handicrafts, so those antique licensed goods must be prepared in advance, so he will buy the two things in his hand.

Finally came to the ghost market in Xijing, with these two small pieces, Chu Chen was somewhat dissatisfied in his heart, but when he looked down, he found a circle of bronze Buddha statues on the hawker stall in front of him.

Buddha statues in our country can be said to have a long history, and the world to see bronze Buddha statues, Buddha furniture, early unearthed vessels for the Wei and Jin dynasties, the Northern and Southern Dynasties period of the gilded Buddha sitting statue, standing statue, gilded Buddha statues, etc., the heirloom products are mostly after the Sui and Tang dynasties, the Ming and Qing dynasties Buddha statues account for the majority.

Most of the Buddha statues here are in the style of the Tang Dynasty, with a small number of Ming and Qing Buddha statues, and they all look like the workmanship is good. The Buddha statues of the Tang Dynasty are generally plump, well-proportioned, reasonable in structure, plump and full, with a natural stretch of body, a strong sense of dynamics, and so on, with distinctive characteristics of the times.

Thinking of Xijing's rich historical and cultural heritage, seeing these Buddha statues, Chu Chen immediately became interested, and squatted down to observe regardless of whether it was true or not. After a cursory look, he found that the quality of the Buddha statues here is not bad, although most of them are new imitations, but there are also some old imitations and high imitations, which still look quite good.

However, Chu Chen selected them for a while, and these statues either had some problems with workmanship or were a little damaged, but they didn't find a satisfactory one, and he suddenly became a little excited.

Just as Chu Chen wanted to stand up and leave, the afterglow swept away, and a relatively new Bodhisattva statue placed in the corner caught his eye, and instantly made him feel interested. This is because his treasure is reminding him that this statue of the Bodhisattva should be an old object.

As soon as the Bodhisattva statue was in his hands, Chu Chen felt that his hand sank, and there was a copper texture, which alone made him feel good, and when he looked closely, he was suddenly surprised.

This is a bronze gilt statue of Manjushri Bodhisattva, about 25 centimeters high.

Manjushri is the transliteration of the Indian Sanskrit word "Manjushri", which translates "wonderful virtue" and "wonderful auspiciousness". Among the Buddhist bodhisattvas, he is known for his wisdom and ranks first among the major bodhisattvas, and the Buddhist scriptures call him "Prince Manjushri".

This statue wears a five-flower crown, a high fleshy bun on the top, and large earlobe shoulders. The face is square and the demeanor is solemn. The shoulders are broad, the waist is tight, the body is soft, and the three-fold branch is slightly sitting on the lotus platform.

The upper body wears a robe on the right shoulder, the shoulders are draped, and the lower body is wearing a long skirt, the clothes are smooth and natural, and the legs are symmetrically arranged, which is particularly beautiful. The whole body is also decorated with jewels and bracelets.

Put both hands on the chest to make a Dharma seal, and hold a lotus stem in each palm. The lotus flower is open at the shoulder, and the left shoulder flower is placed with a sphant, and the right shoulder flower is placed with a sword. The sutra and the sword are important symbols of this image, both of which have profound meanings, the scriptures indicate that the wisdom is as profound as the sea, and the sword means that it can kill all the thieves who are troubled.

The rosette is a half-moon shaped with lotus petals on the top. The lotus petals are neatly arranged, full and powerful, and the head is decorated with curly grass. The rosette is engraved with the six-character paragraph of "Xuande Nian Shi of the Ming Dynasty", indicating the casting age and the bottom cover of the seat is intact.

View the whole Buddha statue, very well preserved, dignified modeling, symmetrical proportions, fine craftsmanship, for the Ming Xuande court statue model work.

This statue of Manjushri Bodhisattva is exactly the same as the characteristics of the Buddha statue during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty in terms of shape, craftsmanship, pulp, etc. And after using the ability, Chu Chen's heart was even more shocked.

"Boss, please ask for a price." Such a beautiful statue, and it was from the Xuande period, how could Chu Chen let it go.

The owner of this stall is also a young man, his face is fat, and he looks very kind, but don't be confused by his appearance, he saw Chu Chen look carefully, and he looked very young, he looked like a novice, and when he saw Chu Chen asking for the price, he asked for 80,000 yuan as soon as he opened his mouth.

As soon as Chu Chen heard that it was 80,000, he knew that this person should have missed his eyes, and after thinking about it, if the boss thought it was genuine, he would not take it out for him to see. However, at this price, he also knew that this boss was treating himself as a fat sheep.

Chu Chen hates others to think that he is a fat sheep, although this thing is indeed genuine, but if the boss wants to succeed, it will definitely not work, so he directly returned the price to five thousand.

When the boss saw that Chu Chen had returned to five thousand, he was also stunned for a moment, and thought, does this person know that this statue was brought by himself for three thousand? Thinking of this, he immediately perked up, and the first time he returned it, he could earn two thousand, which was a good deal, so he smiled and let the price go to seventy thousand.

Seeing this, Chu Chen simply put the Bodhisattva statue in its place, and then showed a posture of wanting to leave.

The boss was anxious when he saw this, how could he let a fat sheep run away like this? Then he hurriedly said: "This brother, you really can't get the price, add more, add a little more." ”

Chu Chen was amused, made a gesture of 10,000, and then said: "Boss, I will make this price, and it will be successful, and it will not be pulled down." ”

"Yes, I'll give it to you." The boss decided immediately to avoid long nights and dreams.

After the transaction was over, after Chu Chen and the others walked away, the boss couldn't help but hum a little tune proudly, thinking, hey, my dad also said that I am not the material for business, look, 7,000 yuan is so easy to get, in recent months, I can have no worries about food and clothing, a fool like this young man, but the more the better

At this time, he would not have thought that his father was rummaging through the cabinets at home to find something.

"Child, have you seen the statue of the Bodhisattva that I invited back yesterday for 30,000 yuan?"

"No, wait for Xiao Kun to come back and ask, see if it's there for him."

"This bastard, I still want to ask someone to slap the palm of my eye today, it can't really be there, right? Then he must not sell me cheaply, or I will break his leg!" ”……

"Hey, Brother Chu, how did you come up with the idea of inviting a statue of a Bodhisattva?" Wen Yuting looked at Chu Chen holding the statue of the Bodhisattva, a little strange.

Chu Chen smiled: "Hehe, let's go, let's go back." ”

Next, the sky was getting brighter and brighter, everyone had their own gains, and they had no interest in visiting the ghost market again, plus they were all curious about the Bodhisattva statue in Chu Chen's hand, so they quickly left the ghost market.
