Chapter 290: Bronze Painting
Han Peacock carefully caressed the Buddha statues, especially those places where the colors were concentrated, and carefully perceived the craftsmanship of bronze painting, the reason why the colors of these places were so well preserved was because the craftsmen at that time carved the painted layers.
Feeling the unique charm of this Buddha statue, Han Peacock said with a smile: "Do you believe me when I say it's worth more than 100 million?" ”
Fat Liu said: "If it is the Ming Dynasty, I still believe it, this Qing Dynasty, it would be good to be able to auction four or five million." ”
"Hehe, even if it is from the Qing Dynasty, the price of a large-size Buddha statue is not less than 10 million, and this Buddha statue is not a mud tire, if it is really a physical mud tire, it will not be so light, sue sù you, this is copper, and the bronze painting process is used." Han Peacock said with a smile.
"Copper? How can it be? Fat Liu came over in disbelief and tapped lightly with his hand, and sure enough, this was not a clay sculpture at all.
"Believe it, huh?" Han Peacock said proudly.
Fat Liu looked at this bronze Buddha in surprise, his old man specializes in bronzes, so even if he doesn't learn any more skills, he also knows the art of bronze decoration, this bronze painting, he really hasn't heard of it.
"Can you still paint on bronze?" Fat Liu said in surprise.
Han Peacock said with a smile: "After I go home, I will find your old man to study hard, the bronze painting technology was available in the Shang Dynasty, and the most famous painted bronze is the bronze painted carriage in the tomb of the Qin king." ”
"You've picked up another big leak, huh? You say your kid's luck is too rebellious, right? How many times have you picked up a leak in recent times? Fat Liu looked at Han Peacock with envy and hatred, and almost gritted his teeth.
Han Peacock smiled: "This Buddha statue has definitely not been placed there for a day or two. But no one looked at him more, so he said that the people in the store, they work there every day, and they have watched it for so long, and they don't think of anything else, this is the ability, and the treasure is prepared for those who are prepared, which is called the treasure where the virtuous live. ”
"I think there are virtuous people stealing it, right? A man like you is a thief of the kingdom. Fat Liu said.
Han Peacock smiled and said, "Awards, awards." ”
"Xiao Han, you said that your luck has been too good lately. Now the gap is just too big. You have money, and you don't want to pull you Brother Liu. Fat Liu complained a little about Han Peacock not taking him with him recently.
Han Peacock thought that he had indeed had less contact with Fat Liu recently. So he immediately said: "There has been a big operation in the past two days. If you are willing to participate. I'll count you as one. ”
"The big operation? Can there be a big action on Taobao to pick up leaks? You're not going anywhere, are you? Fat Liu made a burrowing pose.
Han Peacock said: "I want to do this, but not to dig other people's ancestral graves, but to find some art." Don't ask too much now, you'll know then, sometimes, it's not very difficult to get rich overnight. ”
"Is there such a good thing?" Fat Liu said suspiciously.
Han Peacock said: "If you don't believe it, forget it." ”
"Faith, letter Han peacock will have eternal life, this sentence is my motto, when will the action begin?" Fat Liu Dao.
Han Peacock smiled: "In the last few days, I will look at your watch, if the watch is good, you friends, you can participate, after all, it is better to be happy alone than to be happy." ”
"Are your friends participating? It seems that this action is not small! Fat Liu said.
"Of course." Han Peacock said.
Fat Liu said: "It's better for you to hint in advance, how to count the table xiàn, I will have more opportunities at that time, if you can tell me some details of the action in advance, so that I can prepare early, and I can get more benefits at that time." ”
"Well, my brother is getting married recently, so come and drink the wedding wine when the time comes! I won't give you an invitation, and you don't have to think about anything else, if I sue you now, maybe I won't have anything to do. Han Peacock said.
Fat Liu said disdainfully: "If you want to give money, just say it clearly, since you said so, I will definitely express it when the time comes." ”
"I didn't mean that, even if you didn't bring the gift money, could I still kick you out?" Han Peacock said with a smile.
Fat Liu said: "I don't have the face to eat and drink for nothing, don't worry, I will definitely give a big red envelope." ”
"Then I'll rest assured, you must know that I have prepared a very rich recipe, and I have received less gift money, and I can't even get back the money for the dishes." Han Peacock said.
Fat Liu said: "I won't tell you more, I'd better go home!" However, the decoration of your house is really good, which decoration company to find to decorate? ”
Han Peacock looked at some of the furniture placed in the room, and then looked at the whole room, how to look at it and how it felt that it didn't match.
The furniture at home, in addition to some simple sand and other things placed here by the real estate company when it was originally simple, now there are some more kitchen utensils, but some gas stoves and used pot stoves.
Thinking that these should have been brought up by Han Rongrong, these things don't match luxury chandeliers and boutique wallpapers at all.
Looking at Fat Liu's teasing expression, Han Peacock knew that this kid was sarcastic about himself.
"The house has just been renovated, and the furniture has not been bought, if you are free tomorrow, help me move the furniture." Han Peacock looked at the somewhat empty house.
"Not available." Fat Liu replied quickly, when it comes to work, he must not be available to find him.
"I have prawns here, do you want to eat them? You must be out of time, then I'll send you. Han Peacock said.
Fat Liu said: "I'm free, I'm free when I helped you work just now, will I be free when I'm eating now?" ”
Han Peacock laughed, but he was still a little hungry, and he just hugged the catkins in the fish restaurant in the afternoon to let her sleep well, and he didn't eat much at all.
"Wait a minute, I'll get something to eat." Han Peacock said for a while, and walked into the study he prepared, now there are no books and bookshelves in the study, but there is an extra set of kitchen utensils, it seems that he needs to lock the door.
Han Rongrong's kid cleaned up the lower layer very well, but the layer that Han Peacock wanted to use above had become a garbage disposal station, and everything was still here.
Han Peacock showed some materials in this temporary kitchen, so he got a big pot of crayfish from Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, and wanted to make a pot of spicy crayfish.
Now the crayfish in Han Peacock's Xuanyuan Water Control Flag are about to overflow. Due to the abundance of food, the crayfish has a fast growth length, and it is very adaptable, and its feeding range includes aquatic weeds, algae, aquatic insects, animal carcasses, etc., and it also kills each other when food is scarce.
The crayfish in the outside world are very dirty, but in Han Peacock's Xuanyuan Water Control Flag, it is not dirty at all.
As Han Peacock practiced that ancient qigong, his control of the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag became more and more powerful, and now the water world in the Xuanyuan Water Control Flag has been clearly divided into two parts by him. Part of it is fresh water. Part of it is seawater.
Crayfish were bred by him in a freshwater environment, and now there are a few catfish in the freshwater, and the others are carp, grass carp, silver carp, freshwater crabs and grass shrimp.
Due to the short time he was isolated from this freshwater area, the water was not as abundant as the seawater. So there's not a lot of stuff cultivated in it. There is simply no such complete ecological environment as in the saltwater sea.
Even some of the freshwater fish and shrimp inside. Han Peacock didn't take long to put it in, especially those catfish, which he just got in from Qian Jiajiao.
Although the iron pot catfish is more delicious. But this one is more difficult to sit on, and it takes more time to process the catfish, so Han Peacock still chose crayfish.
Add water to the pot, put the crayfish until the water boils, the lobster turns reddish and drain the water, brush the pot clean and heat and add cooking oil to 5 hot, put in spices, star anise, green onions, cinnamon, ginger, angelica, white cardamom, grass fruit, bay leaves, pepper, fry out the fragrance, then put in the crayfish and stir-fry for 2 minutes, add cooking wine, dark soy sauce, beer and continue to fry for 5 minutes, add boiling water and boil over high heat.
After the water boils, add chili pepper essence, garlic, salt, turn to medium-low heat and simmer for 1o minutes, add sugar, oyster sauce and stir-fry for 2 minutes to reduce the juice.
Since the materials were readily available, Han Peacock sat up quickly.
Han Peacock and Fat Liu are both very edible, a large pot of spicy crayfish, and the two of them drank a little wine and ate it all away.
Han Peacock said some unnutritious things to Fat Liu, and he had to deal with his temptation all the time, and when Fat Liu ran out of patience, Han Peacock sent him away.
Of course, Fat Liu bought the money of the Jizo King Bodhisattva, he didn't forget, and 30,000 yuan had already been transferred to him.
After sending Fat Liu away, Han Peacock studied the painted King Kong for a while before lying on the bed.
Lying on the bed, Han Peacock couldn't sleep, and began to perfect his big action in his heart, this big action, naturally, is about cherishing wood, after such a long time of preparation, Han Peacock has already prepared all the work, and it is almost the last action.
This time the coverage was relatively wide, even if Han Peacock had been preparing for so long, he couldn't completely cover all the targets he had found, so some places he couldn't reach could only be assigned to others to complete.
In fact, Han Peacock's idea is very simple, not to mention anything else, just say that the golden silk nanmu hidden in the depths of the mountains of Sichuan and Province in China is no longer there, but the ancient emperors cut it down from there.
At that time, the transportation was inconvenient, the tools were simple, many lumberjacks cut down the golden silk nanmu, generally transported the timber out of the mountains by water transport, if there was no big river around, then it could only be carried out manually, so this kind of work was filled out with human lives.
It is because it is extremely difficult to transport, so it is impossible for the lumberjacks at that time to dig out the whole golden silk nanmu completely, and the difficulty of transportation is only one of the aspects, if it is a wood with a huge root system, you don't need to think about it and know that it is even more difficult to transport.
In addition to this aspect, heavier is another problem, if water transportation is required, if it has roots, the trees are easy to be hung in the water, so the logging in the mountains is generally sawn off from the roots, and Han Peacock's attention is the part of the tree stump that remains in the ground.
Maybe the stumps of the trees that have been cut down in modern times have been dug up, and maybe the people around the area where the golden silk nanmu is produced have dug up some of the stumps for generations, but it doesn't matter.
As long as Han Peacock's speculation is correct, up to now, there must be many tree stumps hidden underground, and Han Peacock now wants to invite people, invite a large number of people, and dig out all those tree stumps hidden in the deep mountains.
Under the pretext that Han Peacock has thought about it, Gendiao, he just wants to collect the materials for Gendiao.
And in some of the villagers around the mountains, a large part of the people will not know anything about the golden silk nanmu, of course. Huanghuali or something, there will not be many people who can recognize it.
Although this is the case, Han Peacock still made perfect preparations.
Before entering the mountain to announce the mission, he would secretly do a survey to determine whether the locals knew these precious wood, and only after making sure that they did not know each other, Han Peacock could invite the locals to participate in the operation.
Because of this, there is some uncertainty in this operation, but as long as it can be rewarded. Any problem can be solved.
The target of the Han peacock is, of course, the most important small-leaved red sandalwood, golden silk nanmu, and rosewood. The best quality of the small-leaved red sandalwood is in India, Dufei, and Ribin, where the chicken blood red sandalwood is the most precious of the small-leaved red sandalwood.
Among them, India, Dumaiso, and Erbang, the area produces the best red sandalwood, this kind of area. It is definitely the place that Han Peacock focuses on.
Of course. People in this kind of place. There must be more attention to the small leaf red sandalwood, which requires some special means, such as hiring some residents of remote and poor mountain villages to excavate.
Able to recognize the small leaf red sandalwood. Generally speaking, there is a bit of economic foundation, if you find the kind of person who is extremely backward in information and has a more embarrassing life, to help Han Peacock dig tree stumps in the mountains, there must be many people who are willing to do it.
For looking for such a person, Han Peacock is not worried at all about not finding it, not to mention the poorer India and degree, even in China, it is easy to find such a small mountain village.
Not to mention the residents of this kind of mountain village, even if they carry a small-leaved red sandalwood tree on the square of a big city now, and can recognize that it is small-leaved red sandalwood, there should not be a few people.
On the contrary, it is the production area of small-leaved red sandalwood, and some old mountain people are more likely to recognize small-leaved red sandalwood, if it were not for this reason, this action Han Peacock would have been implemented a long time ago.
The reason why it has not been implemented so far is to investigate the origin of cherished timber in ancient times, and the other is to investigate whether the local people have the habit of digging tree roots, and if it can be determined that there are still tree stumps left over from the logging in the local area, the next step will be to find reliable people to excavate.
The whole plan is now known only to Han Peacock himself, and although Bai Xiaoyi and the others accepted the task, Han Peacock did not give them accurate information.
Therefore, although the information had been fed back to him, Bai Xiaoyi and the others did not know what Han Peacock's purpose was.
A lot of Han Peacock's investigation information is hidden in many investigation projects, so it is difficult for people who don't know Han Peacock's true purpose to guess what he thinks.
Such a thing is just an idea, as long as there is this kind of thought, plus some financial resources, anyone can do it, so Han Peacock has to be careful.
Now that the information is in place, the personnel Han Peacock is almost ready, and now it is time to wait.
In the middle of winter and the beginning of spring, when the vegetation in the mountains withers, it is the most suitable time, but for Southeast Asia, the season does not matter, as long as you avoid their rainy season.
Not to mention other cherished wood, the highest value of the small-leaved red sandalwood, the small-leaved red sandalwood distribution range is very wide, in addition to Southeast Asia, Africa and Central and South America also have a large number of output, although the quality of the small-leaved red sandalwood produced there is not as good as Southeast Asia, but can get some stumps, it is also earned in vain.
You must know that the small-leaved red sandalwood has always had a saying that there are ten sandalwood and nine hollows, and the place where the tree stump is the thickest place for a tree, and it is also the easiest place to discharge, so even if there is a tree hole in this place, there should be a lot of materials that can be taken out.
The length of red sandalwood is slow, 5 years is only a year, it takes more than 8oo years to become a wood, the hardness is wood, it is called "the wood of the emperor", which is not comparable to ordinary wood.
After polishing, the wood is very oily, moist like rhinoceros horn, and has fine, beautiful and vivid cow hair patterns, its color is dark purple or black purple, deep and steady, and it is a very good material for making zuò furniture.
If you can get a batch, it's worth it no matter how much you pay.
Han Peacock turned on his mobile phone and carefully studied the information provided by Bai Xiaoye.
Don't think about the small-leaved red sandalwood cut down in modern times, the small-leaved red sandalwood that is now in this period must not even have a root left.
Therefore, Han peacocks can only focus on the period when ancient transportation and tools were backward, and the small leaves of red sandalwood cut down during that period could leave a little leftovers.
Han Peacock has circled some key locations, and some areas that are farther away, have complex terrain, and have an unstable external environment, let them be found by more capable people!
Anyway, this is just a one-shot deal, so Han Peacock does not plan to operate for a long time.
As long as he does a good job of secrecy for the first time, when it is done, after the news spreads in the future, no one will be able to take advantage of this kind of advantage.
Therefore, some places where Han peacocks can't go and don't want to go can sell favors.
People like Jiang Lin, Liu Mingyu, etc., knowing this news, even if the probability of being able to dig out the stump is low, they will definitely not miss the opportunity.
Han Peacock is not greedy, he circled India, Dufei, and Lubin abroad.
The country is Sichuan, province, Guangdong, province, Gui, province, and Hai, Nan, these places in addition to Hai, Nan and Sichuan, provinces, other places are produced in the small leaf red sandalwood, and they are all cut down in the Ming Dynasty.
Such places are more prone to residual tree stumps, especially in the Philippines and Lübin, because they were cut down by the Ming Dynasty and transported back by sea through guò, where there is more likely to be harvested.
At that time, it was certainly impossible to bring the trees back with their roots, and the small-leaved red sandalwood at that time was not as precious as it is now, so in order to facilitate felling and transportation, the lumberjacks at that time must have cut it from above the ground.
Therefore, treasures are prepared for people who have ideas, are prepared and dare to act, Han Peacock happens to be a person who has ideas, dares to prepare, and is more able to put into action, so he often gets something that others can't get.
Can you say it's luck? (To be continued!)
