After saying goodbye to Ma laocai and his son, Chu Chen walked to his car and said to director Jin: "director Jin, where are you going? I'll see you off."
"No, no, I'll just go back myself." Director Jin said somewhat flattered.
"Don't mention it. I'm on my way anyway." Chuchen said with a smile.
Director Jin said with a smile: "I really don't need to. I want to have dinner with the director last year at night."
Listen to him say so, Chu Chen says: "Oh, OK, then please help me to give director Nian a good voice."
As soon as the voice fell, Ming Mazi was ready to leave: "Chu Shao, director Jin, if it's OK, I'll go back first."
"OK, thank you today. I don't have any good things here. Take this pack of cigarettes and smoke it!"
With that, Chu Chen opened the car door and gave Ming Mazi a pack of cigarettes that he had never seen in the market, and the package was very ordinary and humble. In addition, he took two more packs and handed them to director Jin. Then he left with them.
After Chu Chen left, pockmarked son looked at the packet of cigarettes curiously. A younger brother behind him muttered: "it's from the capital. It's too stingy to ask someone to help and only give a packet of cigarettes!"
Director Jin said: "fart, it's the atmosphere that gives you a pack of cigarettes. Mingmazi, do you want it or not? I won't give you 3000 yuan!"
Just now, the little brother was stunned and said, "what kind of cigarette costs 3000? Is it really special No, it's Is this really a special supply of cigarettes? "
Hearing this, the younger brothers of mingmazi came around with a hula, competing to see the legendary special cigarettes. However, they were disappointed to see the very ordinary packaging.
One of them said strangely, "I used to have a friend who made a package of this kind of special cigarettes. Why does the package look different?"
"Is it written on white leather?" Director Jin asked.
"Yes The man nodded.
Director Jin sneered: "it's fake. How can the real special supply circulate to the market, and there are so many? That kind of smoke will deceive you who don't know what to do. "
"Director Jin, does that mean that special cigarettes are like those given to us by Chu Shao?" Asked minko.
Director Jin shook his head: "I'm not qualified to smoke this kind of cigarette. I don't know exactly what it is. Do you want a cigarette? "
"Do you really want to buy it for 3000 yuan?" Ming pockmarked son smell speech also some astonishment.
Director Jin said: "nonsense, can I cheat you about this? I can tell you clearly that the Chu Shao family is one of the best in the capital. Even the boss of Yan province can't smoke this kind of cigarette. "
"Hiss!"
Ming Mazi and his men all took a cold breath. After a while, Ming Mazi shook his head and said, "director Jin, I'm sorry. I'm sure I want to treasure this kind of good cigarette."
Director Jin speechless said: "the cigarette is used to smoke. It's not outrageous for you to do so!"
Ming Mazi said with a smile, "I'm just a common man. How can I have such an opportunity in the future?"
"Not really?" Director Jin asked.
"Not for sale!" Mingmazi still shook his head.
Seeing this, director Jin had no choice but to say, "yes! It's up to you. If you want to transfer it in the future, just let me know, but I don't want it to go bad! "
Ming Mazi said with a straight smile, "OK, I won't forget you then!"

Chu Chen parked his car at the gate of Lin Dacheng's house, took the painting and calligraphy box and the armor box from the car and went into the gate. However, to his surprise, Uncle Wu and Lin Dacheng were sorting copper coins on the floor of the hall. It seems that there are many copper coins, hundreds of them.
"Dad, where did you get so much copper money?" Chu Chen asked curiously.
"Today, I went to your mother's friend's house to play. I saw them in her house, and then I bought them all." Uncle Wu raised his head and said with a smile.
Chu Chen leaned forward and asked casually, "what kind of money is it?"
Uncle Wu replied, "these are all Zhaowu Tongbao."
Hearing this, Chu Chen quickly said: "is it all rebel money? Do you have a seal script version
This "Zhaowu Tongbao" is a kind of coin coined during the reign of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty. Why is it called "rebellion money"? It's because this coin was made by Wu Sangui.
At that time, Wu Sangui was in urgent need of a large amount of funds due to military, political and economic needs. For this reason, Wu Sangui once went to the imperial court to ask for casting money on the spot, but he did not get the approval of Kangxi. Instead, he supplied the copper money cast by Baoquan and Jiangning to southern Yunnan. However, due to the long journey, he could not supply it in time, which seriously affected the economic development of Southern Yunnan.
In this case, Wu Sangui used the resources within his jurisdiction to privately cast copper coins. In the 17th year of Kangxi, Wu Sangui became emperor in Hengzhou after he rebelled against the Qing Dynasty. He changed the yuan to Zhaowu and cast the coin of "Zhaowu Tongbao". This is also the origin of "rebellious money".After the Qing government pacified San Francisco, although it twice ordered the collection of "rebellion money", due to various factors, the "Zhaowu Tongbao" money circulated until the end of the Qing Dynasty.
In the Ming Dynasty, there are five fold and ten fold coins. Xiao Ping has a lot of money in regular script. Generally speaking, it's common to recite only and recite "work". Basically, it's not worth much money. Now it's sold by Jin. The Xiaoping seal script is relatively few. The coins with five or ten turns are all big money in seal script. They recite "one cent" and the seal script is ancient and clumsy.
In fact, in terms of market value, the value of seal script "Zhaowu Tongbao" is only between 100 and 200. The money is nothing to chuchen. However, the collection of antiques is about culture. If we just keep up with money, chuchen might as well just do the jade business, so the money would come back faster.
Uncle Wu replied with a smile: "now there are more than 20 pieces of Xiaoping seal script. In addition, there are more than 20 pieces of five fold and ten fold combined."
"Not bad!"
Chu Chen saw that one third of the ground had not been sorted out, so he should be able to sort out a lot, so he put the painting and calligraphy box aside and helped to sort it out.
Four hands, the speed is still very fast, but Chu Chen came back later, and when they classify the copper coins, it's time for dinner.
Four people went to the bathroom to wash their hands together, Uncle Wu asked Chu Chen with a smile: "just now you were holding the box, should be good things?"
Chuchen said with a smile, "it's all good things. You can't imagine one of them!"
Seeing that Chu Chen said so, Uncle Wu felt that things must be extraordinary. He was immediately very interested and said, "Oh! After dinner, I'm going to enjoy it! "
"OK..."
After cleaning the table, Chu Chen took both the boxes. At this time, Uncle Wu could not wait.
He waved his hand and said, "Xiao Chen, don't play the game. Take out the good things first."
Seeing Uncle Wu's impatience, Chu Chen laughed to himself, and then took the Luo Shen Fu out of the painting and calligraphy box.
Wu Shuxian carefully observed the appearance of the scroll, and then he said, "Gee! It's a hand roll! It seems to be the mounting style of the early Qing Dynasty, and it's also a master level mounting craft! "
The mounting of calligraphy and painting in Qing Dynasty had its own characteristics in the early, middle and late Qing Dynasty. The mounting forms of handrolls continue to follow the following styles: imitation and edge striking, silk edge turning, silk inlaid paper edge covering, silk or silk inlaid edge striking, etc. The silk edge turning style is mostly used for the hand roll with different sizes or short ends.
In the early and middle Qing Dynasty, the edge of silk turned wider, about 2.5-3 cm, and narrowed in the late Qing Dynasty. In the middle of Qing Dynasty and the late Qing Dynasty, there were some differences between the style of imitating Xuanhua and the style of striking the border, but there was little difference.
In the early and middle Qing Dynasty, the tail paper of hand roll was shorter and the roll shape was thinner; in the late Qing Dynasty, the tail paper was longer and the roll shape was thicker than that in the early and middle Qing Dynasty. This is one of the characteristics of mounting handroll in Qing Dynasty.
In the Qing Dynasty, brocade was used for the head of the hand roll, and silk was used for the head of the sky and the water. In the early and middle Qing Dynasty, the cotton silk was compact in texture and clear in pattern, mostly with cloud crane pattern. In the late Qing Dynasty, besides the cloud crane, the pattern of Phoenix appeared, but the texture was loose and the pattern was fuzzy.
The mounting skills of Gusu and Huaiyang in Qing Dynasty are famous all over the country, among which Huaiyang is good at imitating the ancient and mounting the pool, uncovering and mounting the ancient paintings.
The mounting style of this scroll is antique mounting pool, and the craftsmanship is extremely exquisite. Although Uncle Wu is not good at calligraphy and painting identification, he used to work in museums, so he has a wide range of knowledge. As soon as he saw it, he knew that it should be the work of Huaiyang mounting Masters in Qing Dynasty.
Seeing that it was actually the work of the mounting masters of Huaiyang department in the early Qing Dynasty, Uncle Wu felt a little strange and asked: "Xiaochen, do you mean to pick up this scroll?"
Chuchen said with a smile: "I spent 450000 yuan on this scroll. In terms of the value of things, it's really a big leak."
It's not that there is no such exquisite mounting for 450000 items. However, in general, if the works are not particularly excellent, it's impossible to use such mounting. But in this case, even if the value of the items is less than 450000, the difference should be small. It's certainly not a big leak.
This surprised Uncle Wu, but he thought of a possibility: "Xiao Chen, is this painting in the picture again?"
Chuchen said with a smile: "Dad, it's not what you think. You'd better have a look first, or you won't understand what's going on."
"OK, let me see first..."
Because there was no room on the table, Uncle Wu also looked at it bit by bit. However, he just looked at the beginning, and then he was stunned. After a while, he asked Chu Chen with tongue tied, "Xiao Chen, do you mean that this is really Luo Shen Fu written by Zhao Mengfu?"
Chu Chen spread out his hand and said with a smile, "I think it should be an authentic work. You'd better have a look at it first."
Uncle Wu nodded and quickly picked up the magnifying glass to observe carefully
