But maybe it was because of the fans, the old man didn't think of this problem at all, and even shook his head and said:
"that's no good. It's worth so much money. If it costs so much money, people will treat me as a mallet, 300 at most!"
"Then you put it down. I can't sell it at a loss. You say it's not worth it. I'll put it here and let a fool buy it one day..."
Since the old man took a fancy to the double bottle, he would not give up. Next, the two sides inked for a long time. Finally, the old man gave the fellow townsman 2800 yuan. The fellow townsman was very reluctant.
Then, the old man asked, "brother, what else do you have? You see, these two things you sold me are not very good. Anyway, you have to build one for me. If I didn't look at Lao Zhou's face this time and I didn't want to come in vain, I would definitely not have bought it! "
The townsman thought about it and said slowly, "there is still one thing, but the price you give is too low. I have to lose money for this bottle. If I didn't sell it for such a long time, I would not sell it to you. Now you still want me to give you something, it must be impossible."
Hearing this, the old man's expression immediately changed, accompanied by a smiling face and said, "it's OK. Let me have a look. The price is easy to say."
The townsman looked at the old man with a reluctant look on his face. At this time, the guide came in from the door and said, "Gee, how come you're not good yet!"
The townsman simply said the matter, and the guide waved his hand and said, "OK, OK, take out your little things and see what else you can do. Hurry up, I will take them to the fourth master's side later. I dare not make him wait too long! "
Hearing what the guide said, the villager quickly took out a bag from the drawer of the table beside the bed and opened the layers of baggage. There were several brushes in it.
Seeing that there are several brushes in the burden, the young people who follow the old people can't help but turn their mouths. It's like saying, it's just a few brushes. What's the meaning!
Seeing this, Chu Chen chuckled to himself. If young people can continue to play in the field of antiques, they will know that the four treasures of the study belong to the top grade among the miscellaneous items. After a hundred years, the price of the brush will be very high. If the brush is a little better, it can basically be shot by Jiade.
Chu Chen took a close look and found that these brushes were all good. The material of the brush tubes included red, yellow pear and ivory. Although the style was Qing Dynasty, most of them were worth more than 5000 yuan.
So Chu Chen quietly kicked Qi Baofu and Cao Jingde with his feet to let them not miss these brushes, and they both nodded slightly.
The old man took the brush and pretended to look at it for a while. At last, he chose the biggest one, and without asking the price, he said to the fellow townsman, "OK, just now you said you would accompany the bottle. I'll give you 1000 yuan for this brush. OK, let's make a big profit this time."
When Chu Chen saw the old man's choice, he knew in his heart that the old man probably didn't know it and pretended to understand it. Although he had a good brush, he chose the one that was the most useless. The other brushes were basically more than 5000, which was the lowest value, less than 2000.
The fellow immediately shook his head: "no, no, writing brush is a good thing. I'll take it back for 2000 yuan!"
The old man said with an unhappy face: "forget it, do you still have 2000 yuan? If you give me 1000, I'll take it. If you don't get it! "
The villagers thought about it and finally sold it to the old man.
The old man chose one brush, but there were six left. Chu Chen wanted to choose two of them, but the villagers refused. They only agreed to choose one for each.
So Chu Chen asked Qi Baofu to choose first, and then he put the most valuable red brush into his pocket.
After money and goods were cleared, the party followed the guide out of the door.
Outside, the guide said, "boss Cao, I've already talked about it there, but you have to be prepared. The price of things is not cheap."
Cao Jingde looked at Chu Chen and Qi Baofu and saw that they had no problem. He said, "Lao Zhou, as long as things are good, we have no problem here."
As a matter of fact, judging from the performance of the fellow townsman just now, the guide and he should be in a group, and they should work together to cheat others. However, the things they brought out were not very good. As long as they had a little eyesight, they could see it. As for the old man, being cheated was also a matter of his eyesight.
To be honest, now that he knows that the guide is likely to be a liar, Cao Jingde really doesn't want to go with him to the next family. However, this is what they asked for before. If they don't agree, they can't do it. Anyway, with Chu Chen's peace of mind, it's no problem to agree.
See Chu Chen they agree, guide says again: "next let's talk about the problem of cost, I want three points, how?"
The three points do not seem to be too many, but if the value of something is high, it will be considerable. For example, if it is worth more than one million, there will be 30000 benefits, which is also very good.
For Chu Chen, as long as things are good, even if they are worth tens of millions of dollars, he will not be vague about this benefit. Cao Jingde and Qi Baofu also said that there is no problem.The guide nodded with a smile: "let's settle this matter. Will you come with me?"
At this time, the old man asked, "Lao Zhou, can we go to see the world together?"
With the harvest just now, he was also very satisfied. However, when he heard something more valuable, he began to itch and wanted to go over and see what it was.
The guide looked at them and saw that they didn't show much, so he said with a smile, "no problem..."
Along with the guide, the group came to a farmer's door. During this period, perhaps because they thought today's harvest was quite good, the old man quietly taught the young man next to him for a while.
He said: "look at the bottom of the old porcelain. It's dirty, not clean. You think, it must be dirty if it's been used for so many years and put everywhere. And if you touch it with your hand, it must feel like a prick. "
Hearing this, the young man asked curiously, "master, why is this?"
The old man said with a smile: "the reason is simple, you think, no matter what it is, even if it is a large piece or a standing piece, someone will always wipe it, and sometimes move the place. If the bottom of the porcelain is often rubbed, it must not be so smooth, and it will feel like a prick."
"In addition, when the servant girl rubs the porcelain with the dishcloth, the dishcloth is not clean. There are some small dust particles on it, which will scratch the surface of the porcelain. This is the mark of use. If you master these two points, you won't make a hole in it!"
Chuchen had a good ear. He could hear every word of the old man's words. At last, he almost laughed.
You have to say, the old man's experience, right? There must be some truth in that, but this theory can only be applied to a part of porcelain.
For example, a lot of things in the Imperial Palace are not opened at all. Seals, such as the domu pot in the Forbidden City, are not taken out after being burned. Where are the traces of use? Where is the bottom dirty? It's as shiny as new.
The old man taught his apprentice in this way, but the young man nodded his head excitedly. He thought it was valuable experience and wealth.
However, it's not convenient for Chu Chen to say more about this kind of thing. After all, everyone is not familiar with it. He told the other party that his master's theory was wrong, and the young people didn't think he had ulterior motives.
The guide knocked on the door of the house. After a while, a young man in his thirties came to open the door.
"Uncle Zhou, here you are!" The young man said hello to the guide with a smile and nodded to the others.
The guide also said hello to the youth with a smile, and then the youth took everyone into the hall. At this time, in addition to sitting an old man in his seventies, there was also a cloth covering thing not far from the old man's face.
The guide respectfully said to the old man sitting in the hall, "fourth master, I've brought the guests here!"
The fourth master nodded, and then said, "I won't say more nonsense. I'll just say a little bit. You can see it, but you can't touch it with your hands. Of course, if you can buy it, it doesn't matter if you touch it with your hands."
Hearing this, Chu Chen asked, "fourth master, how much are you going to charge for this?"
"Two million! You can't lose a cent! " Then the fourth master made a gesture with his hand.
It's said that the goods will be sold for two million yuan. Chu Chen is OK. Others are shocked, especially the young man, who is even dumbfounded.
Chuchen said with a smile: "no problem!"
"Please
The fourth master made an invitation to everyone, and then the young man took down the cloth that was covered on the things.
"This is a bell!"
When Chu Chen saw the whole picture of things, he was stunned, and Qi Baofu next to him immediately exclaimed.
Jizhong is an ancient percussion instrument. In ancient times, it was made of bronze, also known as "special bell", and played with mallet. The latter is bianxuan, while the former is texuan.
The bell is in the shape of a tile, with 36 protruding copper nails. It is inscribed on both sides. On the outside of the bell is a seal inscription made by Emperor Qianlong. On the back of the bell is the name of the bell. The whole body is gilded.
In the ancient law system, an octave was divided into twelve half tones by the method of profit and loss. The twelve laws have six Yin and six Yang, which coincide with the time of December. The order of the twelve laws from low to high is: Huangzhong, Dalu, Taizu, Jiazhong, Guxi, Zhonglu, Ruibin, Linzhong, Yize, Nanlu, Wushe, Yingzhong.
On the other hand, the twelve chimes do not use the same time, but only the chimes of the same month. For example, the Yellow chime is set in November, the Dalu chime is set in December, the taichus chime is set in the first month, and so on. The tone of this piece is "Zhonglv", which is the sixth of the twelve.
