Almighty Appraiser

Chapter 538 Bronze Rod

Master Chen held back his smile, glanced at the young woman, and said to himself, this girl looks like a model, and her knowledge reserve is like a village girl.

"Master Shen, it suddenly occurred to me that I haven't finished the matter that the little boss told me. You can take care of me, and I'll come as soon as I go." After saying this, Master Chen, who was almost suffering from internal injuries, gritted his teeth and went silent. room.

The young woman looked at Master Chen who seemed to be running away, and seemed to realize something.

"Little master, did I say something wrong just now?" She asked Shen Yunfeng.

Shen Yunfeng was not in a hurry to go back, but first served the brewed tea to the old man, and then asked the young woman what she wanted to drink.

The young woman smiled and said, "Do you have ice cream and milk tea here?"

Shen Yunfeng shook his head and said, "Tea, or boiled water."

"There should be coffee upstairs, or I'll make you a cup."

The young woman waved her hand, pointed at the "Bronze Pot" and said, "It's nothing to be courteous about, which at least shows that the thing that my grandfather regards as a treasure is very valuable."

Shen Yunfeng nodded, and said: "Let me correct you first, fu, xi, are not Fuxi as you said, but these two words."

Shen Yunfeng picked up a pen and wrote the word "negative" on the paper, and continued: "Chao, feng is not 'sarcasm', but 'sarcasm wind'."

The young woman curled her lips without showing the slightest trace of embarrassment on her face. Instead, she raised her hand and picked up the paper on which Shen Yunfeng wrote the words "negative Xi" and "mocking the wind" for her grandfather to see.

The old man took a few glances, with an expression of admiration on his face, and even looked up at Shen Yunfeng, and nodded with a faint smile.

"Little master, even my grandpa praised your calligraphy well, that is really good." The young woman said with a smile, "Now can you tell me what they are?"

Shen Yunfeng clasped his fists at the old man and bowed slightly, and then said to the young woman: "You should have heard the saying that a dragon has nine sons, each with its own differences."

"'Negative' is actually the eighth son of a dragon. It is said that its body is shaped like a dragon. It is good at literature all its life, especially calligraphy. It is often coiled on the top of the stele. On the stele, we can see Wenlong bears on both sides."

"'Jiaofeng', he is the third son of the dragon, shaped like a beast. Legend has it that he was good at danger and hopeful all his life, symbolizing auspiciousness, beauty and majesty. "

"As for this bronze vessel, it's actually not the 'pot' you mentioned. To be precise, it should be '盉'."

While talking, Shen Yunfeng picked up a pen and wrote the word "盉" on the paper, and then continued: "盉, in ancient times, it was a vessel for holding wine."

"This bronze yu is collected by the old man. It is simple and elegant, especially the decoration part, which is the most special. We selected the negative and mocking winds from the Dragon Nine Sons respectively. The entanglement becomes a dragon pattern, which is very powerful."

"The words of the dragon pattern, at least it means that this bronze pot, oh, not bronze. It should belong to the emperor. Ordinary people and princes and ministers would dare to use this thing." The young woman seemed to want to redeem her ignorance. A joke, said hastily.

Shen Yunfeng nodded with a smile and said: "Even if it is not something used by the emperor, it should be a royal product."

"Don't forget, Xie Xi and Xiao Feng are originally dragon sons."

After finishing speaking, Shen Yunfeng picked up the bronze scorpion carefully, searched carefully, and put the bronze scorpion back to its original position after confirming that there were no inscriptions on it.

At this time, the young woman had already told her grandpa about Shen Yunfeng's appraisal result.

After the old man finished listening, he nodded to Shen Yunfeng indifferently, and said something repeatedly in his mouth.

After the young woman heard it clearly, she wrote three words on the phone, and asked her grandfather to confirm it before showing it to Shen Yunfeng.

After Shen Yunfeng read it, he raised his voice and said, "This old man is a very famous expert in bronze ware appraisal in our country. He once served as the curator of the Shanghai Museum."

"Why does my grandpa mention this old horse?" The young woman looked at the grandfather who was sipping tea, and then asked Shen Yunfeng.

"It's a bit long to say," Shen Yunfeng said, "The old man's body"

"My grandpa is fine, tell me, listen," the young woman interrupted Shen Yunfeng and said with a smile, "Besides, this is what my grandpa specifically explained. I heard what he said, and it seems that this old man also has a bronze scorpion in his hand." .”

"That's okay, let's chat for a while." Shen Yunfeng walked out of the counter, motioned for the young woman to help grandpa onto the soft chair, and then sat on the right side of the old man, and began to talk to the young woman sitting on the left hand side of the grandfather. The story of the old horse and the bronze 盉.

"One day in the 90s of the last century, Mr. Ma passed by Hong Kong Island and stayed for a few days on business. Whenever he had free time every day, he would go to the antique market to try his luck. The focus is on the various bronzes."

"When Mr. Ma turned to the entrance of a shop, he was attracted by a bronze vessel placed prominently by the shop owner."

"Hee hee, the prominent position is position C." The young woman said with a smile.

Shen Yunfeng smiled and nodded, noticing that the old man's cup was empty, he got up to refill some hot water, and continued: "The bronze ware that Mr. Ma saw was more than ten centimeters shorter than the one brought by the old man, but The shape is almost exactly the same."

Having said this, Shen Yunfeng raised his finger and pointed at the bronze tablet placed on the counter and said, "This piece of yours is missing something, it's missing a lid."

"The one that Mr. Ma saw in the Hong Kong Island Antique Market was small in size, but there was a cover on the top, and there was a forged bronze chain on the cover. One end of the chain was put on the cover, and the other end was tied to the small handle of the handle. tie up."

"After going in and taking a closer look, Mr. Ma concluded that this bronze scorpion should be a royal item, and it is also a treasure he has been looking for for a long time."

"That bronze scorpion is smaller than this one in terms of height, caliber, and belly diameter, but the arc-shaped girder is directly in the shape of a dragon. The shape of the girder is more reserved for the old man. , using a negative value."

"That's like what you said earlier, this bronze ware should be custom-made by one of the emperor's sons." The young woman laughed.

Shen Yunfeng smiled, glanced at the bronze cymbals placed on the counter and continued: "What makes Mr. Ma want to stop is definitely not the shape of the bronze cymbals, but the row of twelve he found on the shoulders of the bronze cymbals." The inscription of the word."

"It was this line of inscription that made the value of that bronze scorpion skyrocket."
