Chapter 47 Song Dynasty Star Catalog

Honest?

The faces of many people at the scene changed, and for an antique person, dishonesty is not an ordinary evaluation.

After all, the antique trade is all about integrity.

Chang Sanye's eyes condensed slightly, stared at Ye Chaoyang and said, "Boy, you'd better make your words clear, otherwise you won't want to go anywhere today!" ”

"Since you want to lose face, I will fulfill you." Ye Chaoyang smiled, raised the pocket watch, glanced at the stall owner and said: "As the saying goes, people don't say short, I missed what I shouldn't have said in front of you, boss, but now I can't take care of this, and I ask the boss to take care of it." ”

"This, yes." The stall owner nodded with a wry smile, he already knew that this thing must be worth a lot of money, but he didn't know what was going on, and he looked at Ye Chaoyang with some curiosity.

Chang Sanye urged impatiently: "Where did you get so much nonsense!" Boy, if you have any skills, you can show them directly! ”

"I want to see how my third master Chang has lost his eyes!"

"Do you still think it's a pocket watch from the Qing Dynasty?" Ye Chaoyang looked at him and asked.

Chang Sanye sneered: "Except for the Qing Dynasty pocket watch, this pocket watch can only be from the Republic of China." Why don't you hurry up? ”

"This pocket watch is not from the Qing Dynasty, let alone from the Republic of China." Ye Chaoyang shook his head and said firmly: "This is from the Song Dynasty!" ”

"What!" Chang Sanye was taken aback.

Many people at the scene also had their eyes wide open, but those who had some research in the antique pocket watch looked at Ye Chaoyang in amazement. "Little brother, are you crazy?"

"Song Dynasty pocket watches? Do you dare to believe that? ”

"What a joke, it's impossible! The Song Dynasty did attach importance to science, but it didn't reach that level, right? ”

"You said it was from the Ming Dynasty, I still have to believe you for three points, the Song Dynasty pocket watch is really ridiculous!"

"Haha, I heard the kid, how could this be something from the Song Dynasty?" Chang Sanye laughed, with a bit of sarcasm on his face.

Ye Chaoyang glanced at them, and actually smiled, "You are talking so passionately, you should have some understanding of the customs and customs of the Song Dynasty, then you should know that the Song Dynasty opened up the Maritime Silk Road, and among the previous dynasties, navigation is the most developed and popular, is there any truth in what I say?" ”

"This, it seems." Some frowned and nodded slightly.

Ye Chaoyang continued with a smile, "As you know, ancient times are different from now, there is no radar navigation, you can only rely on astronomical techniques related to navigation such as crape myrtle star dou, and use the human brain to deduce the location, direction, and hour of navigation on the vast sea. ”

"The short distance was fine, going out to sea in the morning and coming back before the evening. However, if it was a long voyage, spanning these days, or even months of maritime trade, it was obviously not possible to rely on astronomical calculations alone, so navigators created various auxiliary tools to help them survey their bearings. ”

"This pocket watch is a nautical tool!"

"Hmph, it sounds like the head, but how do you prove it?" Chang Sanye snorted, stared at him and asked.

The corners of Ye Chaoyang's mouth hooked slightly, wiped some of the patina behind the pocket watch with his hand, and said with a smile: "The proof is actually very simple, please take a look." ”

"Okay, I'm going to see what proof you have!" Chang Sanye sneered, took the pocket watch, but when he looked at it, his face changed suddenly!

Seeing the change in his expression, many people immediately leaned over to look, and with just a glance, their faces also showed surprise.

Someone said in surprise: "The Great Song Guirentang Sea Merchant Marine No. 1 Special Kanyu Star Catalog. ”

On the back of the pocket watch, there is a line of words engraved!

It is a book of Lishu!

In the past dynasties, many objects are engraved with words, all of which are selected official books. This kind of font is square, the law is strict, and it is particularly upright and beautiful, which is very in line with the aesthetic concept of Chinese people's square character.

"Guirentang, I know! It seems to be a private business specializing in porcelain trading during the Southern Song Dynasty. ”

"It's amazing, it's really a pocket watch of the Song Dynasty!"

"What a pocket watch, this should be called a star catalog." Some people looked at Ye Chaoyang in surprise, they couldn't believe that this young man's eyesight was actually higher than Chang Sanye's eyesight!

The so-called star catalog is a special watch for ancient Kanyu feng shui masters. At first, of course, it wasn't a pocket watch, but a relatively large piece.

However, with the changes of the times, it is natural that various changes will occur.

This pocket watch-sized star catalog, only twelve hours, the heavenly stems and the earthly branches, nothing else, is obviously only suitable for experienced enough to not use the star catalog of the feng shui master of the hand-held items, this level of masters, even as long as a measuring ruler, whether it is day or night, only need to hold the ruler, diagonally to the sky, you can find the Big Dipper and other stars that can guide the direction, and can use this to survey the approximate time, the means are powerful, at that time it was naturally the help of gods and ghosts, put it in today's words, There is no successor, and the inheritance has long been cut off!

Nowadays, even the doctors and even professors in the study of ancient navigation have not reached this level, and they can only hold the measuring ruler and sigh at the ocean, lamenting the development and incredible development of the human brain technology of the ancients.

Otherwise, it's someone's toy object and it's used to enjoy it, and it doesn't do much good.

In either case, there is no doubt that this pocket watch is already something from the Song Dynasty.

Chang Sanye's complexion changed, he looked at Ye Chaoyang and said, "Little brother is young, he has such eyesight, just now I underestimated you and offended you, dare to ask your name?" ”

"I'm just an ordinary person, I don't have a big name, Ye Chaoyang is me." Ye Chaoyang smiled, stretched out his hand and said, "Can you give me something?" ”

"Mr. Ye, I offended a lot just now, please forgive me." Chang Sanye was a little reluctant to give things away, and said with a smile: "I don't know if this treasure can be loved?" ”

"You want to ask for treasure?" Ye Chaoyang glanced at him and laughed.

The so-called love and treasure are all implicit statements of insiders, to put it bluntly, they are actually buying and selling. But antique people don't talk about buying and selling, but say so, and they look respectful of things.

Although some people don't care about such a title now, there are also some old-school people who insist on talking like this, which can be regarded as a kind of culture in the antique circle.

Chang Sanye smiled: "I have good things in my hands, I am really reluctant to make another move." Mr. Ye, one million, I don't know if you are willing to make a move? ”

"A million?" Li Panpan was taken aback, his eyes widened, and he looked at Chang Sanye in disbelief, wondering if his ears had heard it wrong.

This thing, even with the big bronze statue just now, is only a few thousand yuan smaller!

What a lot of effort it can be sold for a high price of 1 million!

Ye Chaoyang will sell it, right?

Unexpectedly, Ye Chaoyang turned his head to look at her.
