    The ivory folding fan with carved flower patterns that Meng Zitao is interested in is probably made of relatively precious ivory materials and is carefully crafted.  Using various techniques such as high relief and openwork, the craftsmanship is complex and the image is dense and layered, which is relatively rare.

    From the perspective of craftsmanship, this ivory folding fan should be a work from the late Qing Dynasty. Meng Zitao thinks that if the price is right, he can buy it and collect it.

    So, Meng Zitao said: "Boss, please give me a price."

    The boss was a middle-aged man. He didn¡¯t know whether he thought Meng Zitao was young or something else, so he said with a smile: ¡°Eighty thousand.¡±

    Meng Zitao frowned slightly. This price was really far from his psychological price. In terms of the current market conditions, for this fan, not to mention 80,000, even 8,000 was enough.

    Meng Zitao just thought that if the price of this fan was lower than five thousand, then he could buy it, but at the current price, he did not dare to agree, so he got up and left.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????¡­

    Because, if Meng Zitao opens his mouth to pay back the price, the stall owner will catch him and say that you are trying to find out the market situation. In the end, you will have to buy even if you don¡¯t buy, and the people around you will not sympathize with you.  Even if you are right, you will have nothing to say. Who calls this a ghost market?

    Next, Meng Zitao visited a few more stalls, and finally opened one. He spent a thousand yuan and picked up a small bag worth 8,000 yuan.

    While wandering around, Meng Zitao came to a stall specializing in selling cultural toys. The stall owner was a young man in his thirties. Meng Zitao had some impressions of this person. Because of his dark skin, everyone called him Heizi.

    Heizi is a shovel. It seems that because of his poor eyesight, he bought a few relatively common things at high prices, and also had others pick up a few big leaks, which made people laugh for a while.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? One can gain wisdom after one encounter. Since then, Heizi's eyesight has begun to improve. Although there are still some small leaks from time to time, it is a huge difference compared to before.

    At this time, there was a middle-aged man squatting in Heizi's stall, and Meng Zitao also knew this man.

    A middle-aged man named Lu Wenwei is a senior collector in the antiques industry in Ling City. He also likes to collect cultural relics. I heard that the collection of cultural relics at home has filled a room, including many treasures.

    Speaking of which, Meng Zitao used to regard Lu Wenwei as his role model. For a while, he even wanted to take Lu Wenwei as his teacher.  As a result, by chance, I came into contact with Lu Wenwei, and I realized that he was very arrogant and his words were a bit mean.

    Although Lu Wenwei's nature was not bad, Meng Zitao did not have the habit of being tortured, so he gave up his thoughts.

    At this time, Lu Wenwei was observing carefully with a pen holder in one hand and a flashlight in the other. While watching, he was still muttering. Because his voice was low, Meng Zitao couldn't hear what he was saying.

    It's still dark, and due to the rules of antiques, although Meng Zitao was curious about what Lu Wenwei was holding, he didn't move forward to look at it. He nodded to Heizi and looked at other things on the stall.  .

    After looking around, there were two good things, but they were placed in prominent positions. From this, Heizi should know their value. In this case, Meng Zitao did not ask any more questions.

    After looking at Lu Wenwei, he still hadn't decided whether to keep the pen holder in his hand, and his expression looked very entangled. Meng Zitao also became more and more concerned about the thing in his hand. However, due to the rules and Lu Wenwei's temper, he didn't want to  If you ask more, you'll find other things.

    Although the items in Heizi's stall were mainly toys, he was a shovel, and of course there were other miscellaneous things. Meng Zitao saw that there were more than a dozen jade medals on the stall, in red, green, white, black and yellow, and the colors were amazing.  If it's too small, you won't know what kind of jade it is.

    But judging from the fact that Heizi put them in an inconspicuous place in the stall, it seems that they are not good friends.

    Meng Zitao picked up a square seal and saw that it was an ordinary Xiu jade. There were no words on the seal surface. To be correct, it was a seal embryo.  This kind of printing base is good to take back and play with casually, but it is still far from being a collection.

    After returning the printing blank, he found that Lu Wenwei was still struggling. Meng Zitao picked up another printing blank. This time, the material was made of jasper, and it didn't look good.

    After killing some time, seeing that Lu Wenwei was still the same, Meng Zitao repeated the action just now.  Just like that, when he got the last print blank, Lu Wenwei finally stopped worrying, returned the pen holder, shook his head and sighed, got up and left.

    Seeing this situation, Meng Zitao was ready toHe returned the printing blank in his hand, wanting to see what the pen holder that Lu Wenwei was confused about was.

    However, when he turned around and noticed the stamp blank in his hand, he suddenly felt startled and felt his heartbeat speed up a bit.

    ????????????????????????????????????????: The jade color of this seal is pure, as smooth as grease, and the color is sweet and yellow. Coupled with his own feel, if he guessed correctly, this is simply topaz.

    ??Perhaps when mentioning topaz, everyone will think of Huanglong Jade. However, comparing Huanglong Jade to Topaz is really insulting.

    In fact, yellow dragon jade is called yellow wax stone. A few years ago, this thing was not valuable at all, but only cost a few hundred yuan per truck. The reason why it is so high today is entirely due to artificial hype.

    The real topaz is actually a kind of Khotan jade.  The color of topaz is native, a dignified yellow, a tender yellow with a slight yellow-green tint.

    If the color is light, it cannot be called topaz. If the color is green, it is called "huangkou material" (yellow-green sapphire). If the color is brown, it will appear that the color is not correct.  The output of topaz with pure color is very small, and its value is no less than mutton-fat white jade.  The truly precious hotan raw material topaz is extremely rare, and many people will only see it once in their lifetime.

    Meng Zitao didn¡¯t understand at all why there was such a high-end product hidden among these dozens of printing embryos, and Heizi hadn¡¯t discovered it yet.

    As for why Meng Zitao thinks that Heizi didn't discover it, the reason is simple. If Heizi recognized the value of topaz, how could he put something worth millions here like this?

    Although Meng Zitao wanted to put the printing embryo in his hand into his pocket, he thought about it and resisted. He put the printing embryo back and picked up the pen holder that Lu Wenwei was troubled with just now.

    Seeing this, Meng Zitao was shocked again, and couldn't help but cursed: "What kind of luck did I have today? Not only did I find a yellow jade seal, but someone actually sent the money to me. Isn't that what I did?"  Are you dreaming? Or is it because my eyesight is so poor that I saw things wrong? "

    Thinking of this, Meng Zitao looked around the pen holder carefully, inside and out.

    I saw that this pen holder is made of high-quality huanghuali and is in the shape of a straight cylinder. The surface is inlaid with mother-of-pearl, dyed teeth and other gemstones with patterns of flowers, fruits, trees and stones.

    The composition of the pen holder is dense and precise, exquisite and complete.  In the picture, plum blossoms are in full bloom, butterflies are flying, and red fruits are bright and hanging on the branches.  It can be said to be full of vitality and quite sentimental.  The other side of the pen holder is inlaid with a silver seal script poem, and the tail is stamped with the seal script seal "Mei Gong".

    Since Meng Zitao is a collector of literary objects, he is very familiar with the famous scholars of various eras. This "Mei Gong" should represent Chen Jiru, a writer, calligrapher and painter of the Ming Dynasty.

    Chen Jiru specializes in poetry, calligraphy and painting. His calligraphy style is elegant and elegant. He is good at ink painting on plum blossoms and landscapes. He paints plum blossoms in many small volumes, with a natural and casual style and a sparse mood.  His landscape paintings are mostly ink clouds and mountains, and the brushwork is moist and pine-like, which is quite interesting.

    Chen Jiru advocates literati painting, holds the view of Northern and Southern Buddhism, attaches great importance to the cultivation of painters, and agrees that calligraphy and painting have the same origin. He is the author of "Ni Gu Lu", "The Complete Works of Chen Meigong", "Xiaochuang Youji", etc.

    After this introduction, there may be some friends who are not sure about Chen Jiru¡¯s reputation.  In other words, Chen Jiru was as famous as Dong Qichang at the time. From this, everyone must know his fame at the time.

    Looking carefully, Meng Zitao felt that this should be a genuine product no matter what, and the results given by the superpower were consistent.  He really couldn't figure out why Luwenwei put the pen holder back.

    Do you think this pen holder is too new?  Or do you think this is a ghost market, so you are too careful?  Or simply think that if Kuroko had such a good thing, he would definitely not sell it on the black market?

    A few more question marks arose in Meng Zitao's mind, but he immediately put down these thoughts. The most important thing for him now is to take off the pen holder and the printing base.

    Heizi¡¯s surname was Jiang, so Meng Zitao said: ¡°Brother Jiang, please give me a price.¡±

    Heizi looked at it and said, "One hundred thousand!"

    Meng Zitao was relieved when he heard the price, because according to the market price, this pen holder is indeed worth one hundred thousand, but if Heizi knew that this thing was genuine, he would definitely ask for a sky-high price. How could he give ten thousand?  At this price?

    Meng Zitao felt certain in his heart and said with a smile: "Brother Jiang, this is a bit unkind. If it is true, how could Teacher Lu keep the pen holder just now?"

    Heizi chuckled: "If you say so, why did you buy this pen holder again?"

    Meng Zitao smiled bitterly and said, "There's nothing I can do about it. I'm short of money, so I can only pick up some of the things left by Teacher Lu."

    Heizi waved his hand: "Come on, do you think I didn't hear that your bet on stone went up?"

    Meng Zitao said: "Yes, I did have a huge increase, but it is only about 100,000 yuan, which is only enough to cover the cost of my father's treatment. How can I still have money to buy good things? Do you think so?"

    Heizi said: "Then how much do you want? We are also acquaintances. If it suits you, I will give it to you."

    Meng Zitao thought for a while and said, "I think this cartridge is not bad. Let's count it at three thousand. What do you think?"

    Heizi shook his head repeatedly and said: "This price is definitely not good, and the price of three thousand is not what you said. If you sincerely want it, the minimum is fifty thousand!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)?, you think I haven¡¯t heard that you bet on a huge rise in stone?  "

    Meng Zitao said: "Yes, I did have a huge increase, but it is only about 100,000 yuan, which is only enough to cover the cost of my father's treatment. How can I still have money to buy good things? Do you think so?"

    Heizi said: "Then how much do you want? We are also acquaintances. If it suits you, I will give it to you."

    Meng Zitao thought for a while and said, "I think this cartridge is not bad. Let's count it at three thousand. What do you think?"

    Heizi shook his head repeatedly and said: "This price is definitely not good, and the price of three thousand is not what you said. If you sincerely want it, the minimum is fifty thousand!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
