Chapter 371: Qinling Wind and Frost
Tang Zhaozong put down the pen in his hand, and he asked Su Zihe: "How is your Su Ba singing prepared?" ★ Miscellaneous *Chronicles* Worms ★"
Su Zihe said: "Your Majesty, this time you put your heart in your stomach, and we will have a harvest from this operation." ”
When Su Zihe opened his mouth to discuss business with Tang Zhaozong, Su Ba Sing and his younger brother had already launched an attack on Sima Qingshan's troops left behind in the Qinling Mountains.
Su Ba sang killed two soldiers who killed cattle in a row, and his ferocity made the soldiers in charge of guarding and buying those fat cattle in the depths of the Qinling Mountains, and at the same time protecting the children of Tang Zhaozong, constantly retreating.
After all, in the Tang Dynasty, except for large-scale wars, there are very few people who kill people so cleanly.
Such a thing would never have been completed unless a person had great spiritual wisdom in his chest, and at the same time was proficient in painting, gardening, jade carving, and craftsmanship.
"Do you know whose handiwork this is?" Yan Songyuan's eyes were still reluctant to leave, and he asked quietly.
Hua Yu shook his head: "It's only been ten years since this thing was made, but among the world's famous artists, I can't think of anyone with such a mind." What's more, there is no payment, I think it is a hidden world, and I don't expect to have a reputation in the world. ”
The two of them were silent, and after a closer look, Yan Songyuan suddenly remembered that there was another thing.
"Lao Hua, what is that? How does it compare to this one? ”
Hua Yu smiled: "That thing is not the same as this original, I'm afraid it can't be compared." If it's genuine, it's worth a lot of money, and you can see for yourself. ”
As he spoke, he went to unlock the large cabinet and carefully took out a wooden box.
Yan Songyuan saw that the wooden box was very small, but Hua Yu looked struggling, and couldn't help but wonder: "What kind of wood is this?" ”
"It is said that it is ebony wood from overseas, and it sinks when it enters the water, and it is extremely hard and dense."
As he spoke, he opened the lock on the box, reached into the box, and carefully took out the thing.
But it was a small green jade tiger, which was gently placed on the table.
The jade tiger was simple in shape, squatting and majestic, looking up to the sky, but it was not roaring. One eye is brightly painted, but the other is clean and unpainted. Although it is a very quiet and restrained posture, I only feel that its expression is peculiar, and it has the potential to break the world. The jade is green and blue, half transparent against the light, uniform black spots hanging inside, the luster is cool but not cold, bright but not sharp, it seems that there are thousands of rui qi from the inside, and the halo of the treasure is bright.
As soon as the thing came into his eyes, Yan Songyuan stiffened. After staring at it for a long time, he took a deep breath, reached out and picked it up, and rubbed his ten fingers with some trembling to look at it. He sniffed it under his nose again, shook it in his palm, and then carefully put it down.
When he finally asked, his voice was unsteady: "You think it's one of them?" ”
Hua Yu nodded. "The material is ancient Jiuquan jade, and then look at the Yin line technique, there is no doubt that it is Qin Wu. And the paint on the eyes is definitely not today's. Not to mention that its old soil is thick and fragrant, and it is warm and oily when it is rubbed, and it must be carved and hidden in the soil for thousands of years. ”
Yan Songyuan sighed and muttered, "'The shape of the carving, why fly away?'" Is it because I only have a glimpse, after all, I have never escaped from the real thing, and it is just a legend in the end? (note)
Hua Yu raised his eyes and smiled, stretched out his fingers and flicked the wooden box, which seemed to have the sound of gold and stone.
"According to the person who sent this thing, the attributes of this ebony wood are extremely strange, and the Yi people use it to suppress all kinds of evil spirits."
Yan Songyuan smiled dumbly: "Could it be that this jade tiger actually escaped from the First Emperor's Palace to Yijing that day, and was held in this box again?" ”
"This kind of thing is credible or not," Hua Yu said as he picked up the jade tiger and pinched its ears playfully, "Anyway, it's better to lock it up when no one is in front of it." ”
The two laughed.
……
After the game had passed, Yan Songyuan watched Hua Yu put the jade tiger into the box, his eyes were a little nostalgic, and he thought about it and asked in a deep voice: "Lao Hua, are you willing to sell these two things?" ”
Hua Yu smiled: "It's not easy, this time I was tempted to see you." If it were mine, no matter how much I cherish it, it will fulfill you. It's a pity that I can't be the master this time. ”
"Is it just someone else's deposit?" Yan Songyuan was slightly surprised.
"That's exactly what I said. The owner only said that he came to Shenzhou to do business, and he was afraid of inconvenience with these two things, so he was temporarily placed here, but he was not afraid of people looking at it, but he only said that it was a treasure, and it was always necessary to show its value to others, and it didn't hurt to see it for trustworthy people. That's what cheapens the eyes of people like us. ”
Yan Songyuan was silent, and only after a while did he ask: "Why do you need to bring such a valuable treasure when you come to Xinzhou to do business?" ”
"That's unreasonable," Hua Yu said with a smile, "Why don't you identify too many antiques in your mansion?" ”
Yan Songyuan said lightly: "We have never received such a masterpiece there." ”
Hua Yu thought about it for a while and understood what he meant. With the prestige of his family master and the reputation of being a good jade addict, he has never received such a thing, so this person brings such a heavy gift, and it is naturally a road to the sky. I can't help but feel a chill in my heart.
Wudezhai because of the nature of business, the exchange is not rich or expensive, the flow of goods between the clues appear, sometimes a thing is bought by someone soon and then sold back to the store by another person, all kinds of insider feelings by wanting to clean the body is also can't, has always relied on his self-discipline, to maintain a multi-party situation, but the heart is eager to know less, ask for a peace.
I think he has always been vigilant, but at first glance when he saw these two treasures, he actually covered his eyes, but it was good to look at it for a while, and he never thought about the intention of people to put it here. At this time, I suddenly thought deeply, maybe I wanted to release the line from him and catch the person who wanted to fish. remembered that he had already pulled a few regular customers to see it like a treasure, and this time he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Elder Yan, thank you for your guidance today. These two things really can't be put here anymore. ”
Yan Songyuan thought more than Hua Yu in his heart, and he pondered noncommittally for a moment before asking, "Do you know where that person lives?" ”
Hua Yu was a little hesitant.
"If it's inconvenient, forget it-----"
Hua Yu had already made up his mind and said, "No, there is nothing inconvenient. You wait. ”
Get up and go to the closet and take out the receipt book, flip to a page, and copy down the address on it.
Yan Songyuan took the paper and looked at it that it read, "Pingnan Street Yongan Inn A character three rooms, Shi Ren." Before the ink dried, he gently fanned the paper and said, "Lao Hua, this time I will accept your love." ”
Hua Yu waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "I hope you don't cause any trouble, you have to be careful." ”
"Don't worry, I'm measured." Yan Songyuan said lightly, "But you have seen that person, what is your general impression?" ”
Hua Yu raised his head and thought: "Speaking of that person, he is really a rare and wonderful character." Northerners in their thirties, tall and decent, can really afford to be chic and upright when they do things and speak,"
