    Meng Zitao went on to appreciate the few remaining items, which were all stationery supplies, including seals, inkstones, brush washers, ancient ink, and a bald brush.

    Meng Zitao first picked up the seal. The seal was made of field yellow stone, orange peel red, with a warm and greasy texture, delicate and bright color, and outstanding quality.  This seal is a six-sided Tianhuang square seal with a plain surface and a seal script engraved on the seal surface.

    Meng Zitao identified it and found that it was a name seal. The name on the seal was Jiang Youshan. He recalled it and had no impression of this name at all.

    "This should be Tian Huang, right?" He Xinghuai asked.

    Meng Zitao replied: "It is indeed Tianhuang, the quality is pretty good."

    Everyone basically understands the value of Tian Huang. Because of this, everyone was more or less excited after receiving Meng Zitao's confirmation.

    At this time, He Xiaomei said with some curiosity: "I read in a magazine that Tian Huang was a treasure rewarded by the Jade Emperor when Emperor Qianlong had a dream. Is there any such saying?"

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "This is just a folk legend. There has always been a rumor that Tian Huang Stone is the leftover spiritual stone from Nuwa's patching of the sky. If you ask me, this is actually a way to increase Tian Huang's worth.  In ancient times, people believed more in gods, and being related to Nuwa and the emperor would undoubtedly enhance Tian Huangshi's status."

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT

    Meng Zitao continued: "Of course, the reason why Tianhuang has its current status is indeed reasonable. For example, it contains the auspicious meanings of blessing, longevity, wealth, and nobility. In addition, it also has the meaning of 'warmth, cohesion,  It has the six virtues of fineness, knottyness, smoothness and greasyness, so it stands out from many famous stones in our country and is revered as the 'Stone Emperor'."

    After hearing Meng Zitao¡¯s explanation, He Xiaomei and others were a little surprised.

    ¡°I¡¯ve always heard that Tianhuang stone is quite expensive, but I didn¡¯t expect it to be so particular.¡±

    "Then when did Tian Huang discover it?"

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Actually, the 'history' of the discovery of Tianhuang Stone is very short. It was not known to people in the early and middle Ming Dynasty. Its discovery was purely accidental. According to "Min Miscellaneous Notes" by Shi Hongbao of the Qing Dynasty  "According to records, the cause turned out to be an old farmer who went to the city to sell grain. Because one end of the load was light and the other was heavy, he took a yellow stone dug out from the field and placed it on the light end."

    "When I passed by the door of Cao Xuequan, a famous writer who became an official at home, I was discovered by Cao Xuequan and bought it, and he began to "write about the time." But having said that, it seems that for a long time after that, it still did not attract people's attention.  Enough attention."

    "Tian Huangshi came to be valued after Yongzheng sealed his favored younger brother with the '********' and gave Tian Huang the seal. Later, during the Qianlong period, Tian Huangshi gained the appreciation of Emperor Qianlong and thus obtained the 'Stone  The lofty status of "King of the Middle Kingdom" and "Emperor of Stone". Since then, Tian Huang's status has not wavered in the slightest."

    Then, Meng Zitao also told some anecdotes about Tianhuang, and everyone listened with interest.

    When Meng Zitao finished telling the story, He Xinghuai saw that his eldest brother hadn't come over yet, and couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Why hasn't eldest brother come over yet?"

    "I guess I'm chatting with someone again."

    "Don't worry about him, Xiaotao, how much is this seal worth? I've heard someone say before that 'one or two fields of yellow and three taels of gold', is that true?"

    Meng Zitao said with a smile: "That's all in the old almanac. The value of Tianhuang has long been changed to 'one liang of Tianhuang and ten taels of gold'. Now some good Tianhuang are worth a hundred times of gold. With this piece of land,  Due to the fineness of the yellow seal, the price per gram is estimated to be around 8,000 to 9,000 yuan.¡±

    "Eighty-nine thousand one gram?" He Xiaomei and others were shocked by the price.

    Meng Zitao nodded and said: "This is because this seal is just an ordinary private name seal. If it is a famous person, the value of the celebrity will also be added. For example, if a Tianhuang seal was used by Qi Baishi, it would be worth five  One hundred thousand, but if it is used by ordinary people, it may only be worth three hundred thousand. This is the value-added effect of celebrities."

    Although everyone feels a little regretful, there is nothing we can do about it. We can¡¯t just turn into a celebrity, right?

    "How much is this seal worth?" He Xingbao's wife asked impatiently.

    "Let me weigh you."

    Meng Zitao took out a small gram scale from his bag, opened it, and put the seal on it. He felt it should be more than 30 grams before, and sure enough,There are 34.4 grams.

    Meng Zitao calculated silently and came to the result immediately: "Based on this weight, the value is about 270,000 to 300,000."

    "A small seal that costs less than one or two can actually be sold for nearly 300,000 yuan. Everyone thinks it is incredible and excited at the same time.  You know, based on current housing prices, 300,000 yuan can buy half a commercial house of 80 to 90 square meters in Quancheng.

    Just when everyone was in great surprise, He Xingbao came back, but behind him there was a young man in his thirties and a middle-aged man with a big belly.

    When Meng Zitao saw the middle-aged man, he felt the aura of his peers from him. There was no need to guess his identity.

    Sure enough, He Xingbao introduced it to everyone. The purpose of that middle-aged man¡¯s coming here was indeed the antiques on the table.  The young man was from the village, and it was he who introduced the middle-aged man.

    The arrival of these two people caused some changes in the atmosphere in the yard.

    For Meng Zitao, although he felt a little uncomfortable, it actually didn't matter. After all, the other party was a relative of He Wanyi's family who didn't have much contact with him. He hadn't married He Wanyi yet, so it didn't matter if he didn't trust him. Anyway, he wouldn't be very close in the future.  May come and go.

    But for He Xinghuai and his wife, this is a bit difficult to accept, because Meng Zitao is already their prospective son-in-law to them, and they are basically a family. He Xingbao also brought a buyer here, wasn't he just to beat them?  Face?

    "However, He Xinghuai and his wife are high-level intellectuals after all, and they are not the kind of people who don't know the importance of things. Although they are dissatisfied, they do not show it obviously. Of course, their faces are definitely not as good as before.

    As for He Xingbao's current mood, it can only be described as "regret". The reason why he brought young and middle-aged people here was mostly due to the young people's eloquence, but in the final analysis it was still caused by his selfishness.

    However, since everyone has been brought, He Xingbao has no choice but to bite the bullet and go ahead even if he regrets it.

    He Xingbao put the slightly tattered wooden box on the table and said, "This is the box. Take a look."

    Meng Zitao nodded. After observation, he found that this was a cover box made of ordinary cork, and it was not well preserved, so the damage was somewhat serious.

    The surface of the box is plain and unmarked, but inside the lid, there is a word "Jiang", which echoes the seal of Jiang Youshan. It seems that this box and all the stationery items inside were originally Jiang Youshan or his descendants.  owned by everyone.

    As for why He Xinghuai¡¯s father obtained it, hid it, and never showed it, there are many reasons.

    Now that He Xinghuai¡¯s father has passed away, Jiang Youshan doesn¡¯t know who it is and what the reason is. Once the things are in the hands of He Xinghuai¡¯s father, there is no way to know for the time being.

    Putting this question aside, Meng Zitao first appraised the remaining items. These items were all relatively ordinary. The writing brush had basically no value, and the other three items were only worth about two to three thousand.

    Of course, the Konoha lamp alone, plus the square field yellow seal, is worth about 12 to 300,000 yuan. Even if the three brothers and sisters share it equally, the value is more than 400,000 yuan. For an ordinary family, it is already  It's quite a fortune.

    However, this is the price Meng Zitao is willing to pay, and there is no profit in it at all.  If it were anyone else, the possibility of giving this kind of price would be slim.

    After Meng Zitao had seen all the things, He Wanyi said: "Uncle, sister-in-law, I don't know what you want to do with these things?"

    He Xiaomei said first: "Of course they are all sold to Xiaotao, maybe they are getting an advantage from outsiders!"

    The young man smiled and said: "We are all from the same village. According to seniority, I have to call you sister-in-law. We are not considered outsiders."

    He Xiaomei said coldly: "He Liang, I still remember that your father almost beat me because of a fish. At that time, why didn't your father say that we were all a family and that one fish would be fine?"

    He Liang said with a smile: "My dad is my dad, and I am me. In my heart, we are all a family."

    He Xiaomei said: "Then you sever the father-son relationship with your father first, and then talk to me."

    He Liang smiled bitterly and said: "Sister-in-law, you are forcing yourself to make things difficult for me. We are all from the same village. We don't see each other when we lower our heads but don't look up. We shouldn't be like this."

    He Xiaomei sneered and said: "Why don't I usually see you talk so nicely? After all, don't you just want to make money? What are you talking about?"

    He Liang raised his thumb when he heard this: "Sister-in-law, you are an open-minded person. We are really here for money. We don't have to struggle with money these days, right? I'll tell you the truth, Boss Ma is very powerful, and he is in the antique area.  I have many friends and know many bosses, so if I see something I like, I usually pay a high price."

    He Xiaomei said: "No matter how much you say, Xiaotao and we are a family, can he still make us suffer?"

    He Liang said with a smile: "I also believe this, but the prices are somewhat different across the country. Some places are lower and some are higher. Boss Ma himself has a store in Hero Mountain, so he will definitely not lose money to everyone.  Of course, as the old saying goes, it¡¯s the mule or the horse that comes out to run around. No matter how good I say it, it¡¯s not as convincing as Boss Ma¡¯s words.¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)To be honest, Boss Ma is very powerful, and he has many friends in the antique area and knows many bosses.

    He Xiaomei said: "No matter how much you say, Xiaotao and we are a family, can he still make us suffer?"

    He Liang said with a smile: "I believe this too, but the prices are somewhat different across the country. Some places are lower and some are higher.
