Qiang youwan heard what Chu Chen said, and a smile immediately appeared on his face. However, when he thought about the price, he hesitated and pondered for a long time, and then he hesitated and said, "teacher Chu, count 100000. Do you think it's ok?"
This price is still very cheap, but Chu Chen is always a little wary of this kind of business, so he didn't agree immediately.
Seeing this situation, Qiang youwan thought that Chu Chen thought the price was too expensive, and quickly said, "Mr. Chu, if you think the price is not suitable, then eight Seventy thousand, what do you think? "
Now it seems that Qiang youwan should also be an honest man. Chu Chen stopped pressing the price and nodded: "OK, that's it. However, Mr. Qiang, let me ask you a bold question. Can you tell me the origin of this thing? "
Maybe he was worried that this might make Qiang have ten thousand misunderstandings. He added: "I don't mean anything else when I ask you this question. The main reason is that antiques like you belong to the level of cultural relics, so there are some taboos about the source of things. I hope you can understand."
"Never mind, never mind. I got it as a scrap from a family. "
Qiang youwan waved his hand and said honestly: "actually, I'm not afraid of your jokes. I'm mainly a waste collector. I like to watch some antique programs. In the past, I don't think I can afford to buy any good things just because of my economic strength. I usually receive at most some jade wastes, so I collect them myself. "
"At that time, I just thought it was fun, and the waste products I collected didn't look very good. They should not be worth much money, so they didn't become things. However, some time ago, I met a man who was willing to spend nearly 1000 yuan to buy a piece of jade that I usually hang on my car. Only then did I find that my collection may not be useless. "
"So, in the next period of time, I went to buy some books and compared them with the introduction in the books. Unexpectedly, I found some good things from them. At that time, I just wanted to collect it, and I didn't feel bad about the authenticity. During this period of time, there was something urgent at home, so I came to try my luck... "
Next, Qiang youwan talked about the experience of selling things today. Anyway, Chu Chen has decided to buy it, and it's the last thing in his hand, so there's nothing he can't say.
However, after listening to these words, Chu Chen felt a sense of deja vu, so he quickly and carefully looked at Qiang youwan's appearance, and then found that Qiang youwan was probably the person Yang Qing said. It was only because Qiang youwan had specially dressed up today and changed a lot with the person Yang Qingyue said, that he didn't notice for a moment.
Seeing Chu Chen constantly looking at himself, he unconsciously touched his face and asked strangely, "teacher Chu, do you have any questions?"
"Nothing."
Chuchen laughs and asks, "Mr. Qiang, was it just a Mao you hung on the car?"
Considering that Qiang youwan was not very proficient in antiques, he described the appearance of gang Mao.
Qiang youwan was a little surprised and said, "this is it. Is it your friend who bought it? There's no problem with that thing, is there? "
Chuchen heard a burst of ecstasy in his heart, then quickly waved his hand and said: "of course, there is no problem, otherwise I would not have bought this just Mao."
"You bought it?"
After listening to what Chu Chen said, Qiang youwan was surprised with a trace of pity. Since Chu Chen would buy it, the value would not be low. It seems that he sold it cheaply. However, he was in a good state of mind. After a while, he was no longer entangled. Since the price he received was much lower than the price he sold, why was he so greedy?
Chuchen said with a smile: "in fact, it's not expensive even when it just arrived. It's almost the same as the price you sold. I bought it because there are two more words on it. I feel curious and want to study it. So, I'd like to ask you, "did you receive this too?"
"That's for sure." Qiang youwan laughed, pondered for a while, and said, "I've bought that thing for a long time. I remember that an old man in his eighties died and even sold some books of his family to me."
Chu Chen quickly asked: "are those things still there?"
Qiang youwan shook his head: "most of the things are gone. There are only a few books. Because they seem to be old books, I still keep them for sale. If you want, I'll bring them to you tomorrow."
"You can do whatever you want." Chu Chen immediately said, "how about this? If you are not busy, Mr. Qiang, let's go to your place after dinner. How about that?"
For Chu Chen, the clue of Wang Mang's treasure is the most important thing he cares about now. If it wasn't time for dinner, he would like to go to qiangyouwan to check it immediately.
Qiangyouwan scratched his head: "there is nothing wrong, but my environment is a little bad..."
Before he had finished speaking, Chu Chen interrupted: "Mr. Qiang, it doesn't matter. To tell you the truth, I didn't live in a good environment when I was a child. There's nothing I'm not used to."
"All right." Since Chu Chen said so, Qiang youwan nodded and agreed.Next, Chu Chen asked, "Mr. Qiang, do you want cash or transfer?"
Qiangyou Wan Wenyan began to get excited. He rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "I haven't seen so much money all of a sudden, so I'd better pay in cash."
"All right."
Chuchen nodded with a smile, then took qiangyouwan to shouyingtai and completed the transaction.
Seeing so much money all of a sudden, Qiang youwan's eyes are shining and his hands are shaking. But when he comes back, he feels that his decision is too silly. It's 70000 yuan. If there's a mistake, it will only kill him.
Although he promised Chu Chen just now, he was still a little uneasy, so he was embarrassed and said, "teacher Chu, can we deposit the money in the bank now?"
Chu Chen looked at the time and said, "it's too late now. Do you have a bank or a passbook? I'll ask someone to punch the money into your card."
"I have a passbook, but I'm still at home, but I don't have a phone in my place." Qiang youwan seems to be in a bit of a dilemma.
"Why don't you put the money first? When we go to your place, I'll have the money transferred to your passbook, and you'll pay me back. Anyway, you can rest assured that there will be no problem with my money. "
"Thank you! Thank you There are ten thousand voices of thanks.
At this time, Uncle Wu and they came down from the upstairs. When they saw Chu Chen, Zhao Xueyi asked with a smile, "Xiao Chen, is everything over at the museum?"
Chuchen replied with a smile: "how can it be? At least we have to be busy opening the museum. But there's something over there that's not ready. Just come and have a look. By the way, uncle Zhao, I heard that you brought a treasure here? "
With a smile, Zhao Xueyi pointed to a box in his hand and said, "do you want to see a set of inscriptions of Jinnong?"
"Of course I want to see it, but let's fill up first." Chuchen replied with a smile.
"OK, let's go to the five zang organs temple first..."
Since he didn't come to the store for a long time, Chu Chen simply invited everyone to enjoy a delicious meal at Bazhen Yushi, which made Zhao Xueyi and others enjoy themselves. Qiang youwan even felt that the food was so delicious that his tongue would swallow it.
After lunch, Chu Chen asked the waiter to clear the table, and Zhao Xueyi took out the things.
These are six rubbings on steles. They are the rubbings of Yuanjing statues in the Northern Wei Dynasty, Li Yong's cursive script in huaisu, Mi's poem rubbings in qunyutang, Mi Fu's poem rubbings, Zhao Songxue's calligraphy rubbings and Huang Tingjian's calligraphy rubbings collected by Yang Jin (Baisu).
These six inscriptions are very clear and well preserved, and they all have Jinnong's autograph and seal, which is very rare.
After reading all the six inscriptions, Chu Chen asked, "Uncle Zhao, where did you get these inscriptions?"
When Zhao Xueyi heard Chu Chen's question, he felt something wrong: "I went to Jiangcheng a few days ago and bought it in the antique city over there. What, is there a problem? "
Chu Chen replied, "I think these should be wall clay."
The wall clay copy is a way of making stele. The method is to extend the original rubbings on the wall, then carve them out, and then write them on Xuan paper. In this way, the produced stele is not extended from the original stele, but from the wall.
"Isn't that right?" Zhao Xueyi, Wu Shu and others were quite surprised to hear this.
"It's really wall clay. You can see it from several aspects."
Chu Chen explained: "because the real old stele has a long history, it has been weathered and corroded after being hit by wind and rain. There will be flakes of stone flowers on the stele. These stone flowers are uneven and distributed irregularly. And most of the wall clay after the completion, in order to create the uneven effect of the weathered stone, usually sprinkle lime on the wall to forge the weathering point
"You see, the weathering points of these inscriptions seem to be a little even, which should be because the forgers mean it and do it intentionally, and the effect is quite outstanding, but there is still one more deliberate, which is not so natural."
"In addition, if the real stone flowers are concave inward, there will be white marks on the inscription, which is commonly known as Yin Wen. However, the weathering points are protruding outwards, which is reflected in the black spots on the inscriptions, that is, Yangwen. This way can effectively distinguish the original extension from the imitative extension. In addition, after years of weathering, the old stele sometimes has cracks, which are very natural on the original rubbings, while the cracks on the imitations have obvious marks of decoration.... "
Chu Chen told us the characteristics of the wall rubbings again and again, which made Zhao Xueyi shake his head repeatedly. He said with a bitter smile, "I'm careless, I'm careless. I didn't expect that someone even made a fake on the inscription!"
In short, since the mid-1990s, the popularity of collection, compared with calligraphy and painting, porcelain, the fake tablet is very few. The main reason is that the inscriptions are relatively unpopular and boring, and there are few people collecting them. It is because of this, and Zhao Xueyi did not have much research on the inscriptions.
