Chapter 212

"Do you really understand inkstone restoration?"

Seeing Fang Hao's self-confidence, Fang Shifu was still a little surprised. Of course, the higher his grandson's achievements, the happier he was, but the changes were too big, and he felt something was wrong.

"I can't lie to you about this."

Fang Hao thinks that this matter still needs to be explained, lest the old man think too much: "Let me briefly explain the steps to you. To repair the inkstone in our house, you only need to use epoxy resin to add stone powder of corresponding materials and other raw materials as the main components. , reconcile into cement as a material for caulking and patching, bond the damaged part, and polish and lubricate the patching part after curing.

Afterwards, according to the principle of restoration of cultural relics, it is necessary to restore the old as it is and restore it to its original state.According to the traditional repair method, use yellow wax and ink to repair and correct with fire.In this way, severely injured, broken or broken inkstones can be rejuvenated. "

Fang Shifu couldn't help but nodded when he saw Fang Hao's well-organized manner: "It seems that you really know how to do it, and, according to what you said, it doesn't seem difficult to repair the inkstone."

Fang Shifu felt a little emotional, he didn't expect that Fang Hao would really repair the inkstone. As for where Fang Hao learned it from, he thought about it, and he didn't worry about it anymore. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings.

At this time, the proprietress of the restaurant's part-time waiter brought the food and said "use it slowly".

Fang Hao said: "For the supplementary materials of the ancient inkstone, it is required to meet the stability conditions of the inkstone, and have relative stability and durability, without damage to the inkstone itself. The complementary materials should be reversible, or have Reversible way to deal with. Because the material of the inkstone is different and the degree of damage, the repair method may also be different.

Our inkstone can use the method I mentioned, but others may not.Just say that the epoxy resin I just mentioned is generally only suitable for the repair of thin and small inkstones, and it is not easy to strengthen the thick and large inkstones. If the inkstone of that person is a large brick inkstone, the method I said cannot be used. . "

Speaking of this, he found that the proprietress was still standing by the side, as if hesitating to speak, he was about to ask what's the matter, when the phone rang, it was Qian Min's call, so he talked to Grandpa Wei and the others, and arrived Went outside to answer the phone.

After a while, Fang Hao returned to his seat: "Auntie, did Han Yanfeng call you when we were at the Terracotta Army?"

"Hit!" Han Liyun nodded: "He said he wanted to apologize to me in person, and asked if I was at home. I told him that I was visiting the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, and told him not to come to me."

Fang Hao suddenly realized that although he guessed whether Zhao Hulu sent someone to dig a hole for him before, he couldn't understand why Zhao Hulu knew that he was visiting the terracotta warriors and horses. Did he send someone to follow him?Therefore, he still felt that the possibility of a coincidence was greater.

It wasn't until Qian Min's reminder just now that he realized that someone might have tipped off the news, and his aunt's answer also confirmed his guess.

"Xiaohao, is he calling you, or are you looking for him?" Han Liyun asked.

"It wasn't him who called just now, and I don't want to find him."

Everyone is very curious, since they are not, why did Fang Hao ask that?
"It's a long story, let's chat while eating."

The first one is warm mixed pork belly. This dish is a famous dish in Xijing. If it is cooked well, the pork belly is crispy and tender, refreshing and palatable, spicy and fragrant. If it is not good, it will have a strong taste.

The old man's teeth are not very good, so he can eat this dish, let him taste it first: "Well, it tastes good, and the cooking is very good."

Everyone put their chopsticks down one after another, and it was really delicious. Fang Hao felt that it was comparable to the ones he had eaten before, but it was a five-star restaurant, and it was comparable, which already showed that the chefs in this restaurant were of a high level. There are so many good reviews.

Next, Fang Hao narrated what happened before while eating: "I found out through my friend's investigation that someone should have tipped off the news, so I tried to ask my aunt, it seems that it is indeed Han Yanfeng."

After learning the whole story, everyone was very angry, especially Han Liyun and his wife. What Han Yanfeng did was clearly deceiving them.

When Han Liyun was angry, she thought of one thing: "By the way, you had diarrhea just now. Could it be because you ate oranges? They brought the oranges in the morning. I put them in my bag because they were fresh. , can't it be drugged inside!"

Fang Hao waved his hand: "It shouldn't happen, and you all ate it. If there is a problem, I won't be the only one who has a stomachache."

He went on to say: "Everyone, don't be angry, I have already told another friend with me, and he will ask Han Yanfeng to give me an explanation."

"This time, he can't be easily spared!" Fang Zhengqiang said with a little anger.

"Yes, this time will definitely make him unforgettable."

Not to mention Fang Hao, after Du Manxiang found out just now, he was also very angry, saying that the tiger doesn't show his power, and if he is a sick cat, he must deal with Han Yanfeng well.

Fang Shifu frowned slightly: "Xiaohao, you can teach him a lesson, but remember, don't put yourself in it."

Fang Hao smiled to reassure the old man that if he wanted to do it, Du Manzhuang would not be willing to help him.

The dishes were served one after another, and the overall taste was not bad. There was one dish that tasted mediocre, but the level of the small shop was just like that, and even the big restaurants could not do it. Every dish was in line with the tastes of the customers.

After eating and drinking enough, Fang Hao went to check out, the total was only more than 100, which is already very cheap compared to today's dishes.

Just as he was about to scan the QR code to pay, Fang Hao saw that the proprietress was hesitant to speak again, and finally couldn't help asking: "Madam proprietress, what's the matter with you?"

The proprietress smiled embarrassedly: "Brother, do you know how to repair inkstones?"

"There are many types of inkstones, with different values ​​and degrees of damage. I have to see it to know if it can be repaired." Fang Hao did not give a positive answer.

The proprietress said: "I don't know what kind of inkstone it is. My child accidentally dropped a corner. Because it was left by my husband's grandfather, I want to try to repair it."

"That's it." Fang Hao thought for a while: "I'm not a local, and I don't have any tools at hand now. Even if I want to repair it, I may have to take it back to the capital to repair it."

"That's it..." The proprietress seemed a little disappointed. It would cost a lot of money to take it to the capital to repair it!
Now it is closing time at noon, the boss came out of the kitchen and just heard the conversation between the two, so he said: "Little brother, why don't I go get the inkstone and see if it can be repaired? Is it worth repairing?" You wait in vain, I will treat you to this meal."

Fang Hao thought for a while: "Is it far?"

The boss quickly said: "It's not far, one round trip, one round trip, up to 10 minutes."

During these times, it was just for everyone to rest for a while, Fang Hao went to ask everyone for their opinions, and everyone agreed.

So, the boss rode a battery car to get the inkstone. The proprietress poured tea for them and said casually: "Actually, I also asked those two people before if they could introduce the master who repaired the inkstone. They said that they knew all the masters who repaired the inkstone. The price is more expensive."

Fang Hao asked with a smile: "How do you know that the price of my restoration is not high?"

The proprietress was a little embarrassed: "I also heard what you said just now. The inkstone in my house was only broken by a corner. It should be quite easy to repair."

"It's hard to say."

Fang Hao smiled, he was a little curious about those two people just now, and changed the subject: "Are those two people just now regular customers?"

The proprietress said: "They are not local. They have lived here for two or three days. They come to my house for lunch every day. I think they will not come after today."

Fang Hao nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

In less than 10 minutes, the boss came back. He held a box in his hand and put it on the table. When he opened it, there were two inkstones inside, one of which was a red rectangular inkstone, and the lower left corner had been broken. .However, Fang Hao's attention at the moment is already on the other inkstone, which is the old Chengni inkstone!

"Why are there two inkstones?" Fang Zhengqiang asked when he saw the inkstones in the box.

The boss replied: "This inkstone is also left by my grandfather. I want my brother to see if it's worth it."

"I'll take a look at it first."

With that said, Fang Hao took out the Fang Chengni inkstone next to him.

The inkstone on this side is larger in size, eel-yellow in color, covered with vicissitudes of life, and fine in mud, which is good for ink development.The whole is in the shape of a huge and plump bergamot, with fists clenched, with branches and leaves dotted in between.Its carving technique is a typical Ming Dynasty style.Bergamot symbolizes good fortune and longevity, and was a common theme for ancient people to create.

There is a round inkstone hall on the front of the inkstone, and an inkstone pool is dug in the upper part.On the left side of the inkstone hall, there is an inscription "Ju Jie Zang".This Ju Jie was a calligrapher and painter of the Ming Dynasty.The landscape painting method is simple and far, with the style of Song people.So this is a famous inkstone from a famous artist.

In addition, the bottom of the inkstone is engraved by subsequent collectors, and there is also a five-element poem in running script.

This five-character poem in running script is intended to praise the beauty, hardness, and sound of the Chengni inkstone.The writing is particularly smooth and powerful, with a strong foundation.Fang Hao flicked his finger, and it really made a crisp sound of gold and stone.

Most of the surviving old Chengni inkstones are from the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. These Chengni inkstones from the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China rarely achieved first-class ink (the process of grinding inkstones and inkstones), which caused the failure of this ink. The most important reason is that the ratio of raw materials is not good. Of course, the raw materials themselves are not as good as those of Tang, Song and Yuan Dynasties.

This is also the reason why Emperor Qianlong wanted to add purple sand to the raw materials of Chengni Inkstone, just to increase the ability of sending ink.However, with the changes of the times, the water flow, water quality and mud quality of the Yellow River and the Fen River have undergone tremendous changes.Even if it is made of modern Yellow River mud, no matter how beautiful the mechanized stamping mold is, it does not have the characteristics of the real ancient Cheng mud inkstone.

Old Cheng inkstones of this quality are already very rare in the market, let alone famous inkstones, with engravings of several collectors, and poems praising the quality of the inkstones, which is even rarer.

It must be a very pleasant thing for Fang Hao to encounter it by accident. He would definitely want to keep it in his pocket. He can usually use it to grind ink and practice calligraphy.

Reluctantly put the old Cheng inkstone back, Fang Hao took out another inkstone. In fact, he knew this inkstone was Guo inkstone at a glance. Although this kind of inkstone is also a famous inkstone, its value is not high. The slightly better Guo inkstone, even if handed down from the Song Dynasty, is only ten thousand yuan, not to mention that the inkstone of this side has not been around for a long time, and the workmanship is also ordinary.

　I'm sorry, I've been feeling unwell recently, which has resulted in a poor state. Let's add another chapter today, adjust it tomorrow, and try to adjust the release time to daytime.
