Chapter 067: Talking to the Ancients

"Xiaozhou, don't say that, Principal Yan can be called a generation of Confucianism, how many entrepreneurs want to make friends with him, but he is very high-minded, and most of his friends stay on the surface. We only came into contact with each other when we were studying in the party school, and we were classmates. Yu Rong explained.

"The literati are scathing, and they must not be mixed up in business, that is, those people in the circle hold it." Yu Jiangzhou snorted.

"Each has its own strengths." Yu Rong hurriedly waved his hand, and the beloved disciple who was guarding Yan Pingchuan still didn't talk nonsense.

"I don't like this guy anyway."

"That's it! Don't get mixed up yet, I'll have a good chat with Zhou Xuan. ”

Yu Rong opened the conversation, talked well, and discussed ancient and modern culture with Zhou Xuan, very enjoyable, laughing constantly, but he soon discovered Zhou Xuan's shortcomings, and his understanding of the business field was still blank.

Zhou Xuan is indeed a talent, but with the protection of a teacher like Yan Pingchuan, Yu Rong concluded that his future development will be biased towards the education industry. When asked about age, Zhou Xuan and his daughter are six years apart, which is indeed not a good match.

To sum up, I still can't consider being a son-in-law, but Yu Rong is beginning to like this stubborn young man.

"At present, the collecting world is also mixed, and the treasures are bought at high prices, and the rest of the people have no chance to see them. The folk collection is a mess, with imitations in the majority, and the words of experts can not be fully believed, many antiques have expert appraisal and valuation, which can only be used as a reference. ”

Yu Rong took the initiative to mention the collection, and Yu Jiangzhou on the side smiled slightly, it seemed that the trip to the treasure appreciation would continue, and she didn't want to let Zhou Xuan go like this.

"Inexpensive and rare things, so that the people do not fight, these years the price of antiques has risen year by year, there are always some people who want to speculate and make a lot of money." Zhou Xuan said.

"It's not easy to make money, not to mention buying fakes, losing all your money. Even those genuine products have a big problem, such as the Warring States Period, when it comes to bronzes, people are sensitive, and this should not be a private collection. In addition, some auction market purchases, the price is inflated, the bubble is very large, and after the arrival of the hand, it is speculated again and then sold. In fact, these have lost the fun and practical value of collecting, and I collect antiques not to be elegant, but to think that through them I can have a dialogue with the ancients, which is a very wonderful feeling. Yu Rong said what was in his heart.

Dialogue with the ancients is the dream of countless people, through antique calligraphy and painting, more often than not, the exchange of ancient and modern books completed. However, the image of the ancient idols in everyone's mind is different, and each has its own preferences.

Zhou Xuan is an ancient, and he has not fully integrated into the current society, and Yu Rong is sitting opposite and does not know each other. Suddenly whimsical, Zhou Xuan asked with a smile: "Mr. Yu, if you travel to the period of the Three Kingdoms, who would you choose to stand with?" ”

"Of course it's Liu Bei, although his background is not very good, and he once worked as a small trader, but he didn't give up his dream when he was over forty, made friends with a large group of heroes in the rivers and lakes, and finally ascended the throne and became the emperor. Therefore, I think Liu Bei is a role model for grassroots heroes. Yu Rong does not hide his respect for Liu Bei, which should be linked to his own experience.

"Well, although Liu Xuande's talent is not as good as Cao Cao and Sun Quan, he knows people and makes good use of them, and finally achieves the emperor's business and can leave a name in history." Zhou Xuan nodded in agreement.

"Sun Quan is a lucky general, the second generation of official wealth, and he is suspected of enjoying his success. And Cao Cao, not to mention, is a traitor, a villain who fishes in troubled waters. "Yu Rong has a strong preference.

"It can't be said that Cao Cao was very thrifty during his reign, and even had an office at home. The most important thing is that he has never been the emperor in his lifetime, and because of his support, the Han dynasty can continue for a few more years. Zhou Xuan objected.

"So what, his descendants are not successful, and it is not for the Sima family to end." Yu Rong said with a smile: "Last year, I collected a sword, and said that it was worn by Sima Shi in the court. Come, you come upstairs with me to verify the authenticity. ”

"My opinion can only be used as a reference."

"Principal Yan's proud protΓ©gΓ©, don't be modest."

Jiang Liang would not miss this kind of good thing, and cheekily followed Zhou Xuan, and the group came to Yu Rong's study on the second floor. It's better to say it's a study, it's an office.

Solid wood parquet high-grade flooring, three-meter-long nanmu desk, the entire wall behind is a bookshelf, both sides are full of all kinds of books, and the blank part in the middle is a landscape painting.

There are also two swivel chairs in front of the desk, showing the used arrangement, indicating that even when he was at home, Yu Rong often handled official affairs and was a diligent leader.

The messier part is the north wall, with some sticky notes on it, written memos, and things that need to be solved in the near future.

Looking at Jiang Liang, Yu Rong was a little hesitant, but he still walked to the bookshelf on the left, and he didn't know where he pressed the mechanism, and the bookshelf panned, blocking the landscape painting, but revealing some dark grids of different sizes, all of which were quaint drawers.

The carefully arranged treasure location, the thief may not be able to find it, and Yu Rong has put a lot of thought into it.

Pulling out one of the drawers, Yu Rong carefully took out a long brocade box, and when he opened it, the yellow satin was wrapped in a long sword made of fine iron.

Jiang Liang stretched his neck and wanted to reach out to touch it, but Yu Rong hurriedly stopped, "This saber is very sharp, don't touch it." ”

Yu Jiangzhou gave everyone a pair of white gloves, and Zhou Xuan carefully held the sword in his hand after taking it, and the weight was not light. It is more than a meter long and a palm wide, with a thin layer of rust on it, emitting a faint cold light.

"I have consulted many experts, and this sword is in line with Sima Shi's identity in terms of style, length, width, etc."

Yu Rong took another piece of printer paper and gently placed it on it, and with an inaudible sound, the paper had been cut in half.

Wow, Jiang Liang's eyes widened, "This sword is so powerful." ”

"Yes, and it has never been polished, so it is relatively well preserved. If the rust on it is removed, it can also be sharpened like mud. Yu Rong said happily.

"Mr. Yu, this sword is some years old, but there is no identification on it to prove its identity, it can only be said that it may be a sword handed down by ancient folklore." Zhou Xuan made a judgment.

Being ruthlessly denied, Yu Rong's old face turned red, and he argued: "This was bought from the members of the Collection Association, and there was a jade sword spike before, with the words "General Sima Shi" on it. ”

"Powerful people do like to leave their names on their swords, and recently they have the seal of a swordsmith. To be honest, I've never seen a name written on the sword spike, Sima Shi is still martial, and I don't like these bits and pieces the most, the so-called sword spike should be groundless, or it was added by later people based on guesswork. Zhou Xuan analyzed.

Even more to Yu Rong, Zhou Xuan didn't say it, more than 1,800 years ago, the sharp swords were rusty, how could the sword spike not rot? Moreover, during the Three Kingdoms period, he had never seen such superfluous decoration on a saber.

"I myself have checked a lot of information, the generals of the Three Kingdoms wore this type of long sword, and the collector has always emphasized that this sword is likely to be used by Sima Shi with the last dynasty." Yu Rong is still holding on to his point of view. Pay attention to the WeChat account eiguanzy to send iQiyi VIP
