    Meng Zitao walked into the house and saw that the decoration here was antique, and there were some antiques and art everywhere, and exquisite ornamental stone bonsais were also common.

    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "It seems that Mr. Jin also has a special liking for all kinds of ornamental stones."

    Jin Afu said with a smile: "People are like grass and trees, helpless in reincarnation in the world of mortals, and experience the various hardships of human beings. But stones are not the same, they are eternal and transcendent. So there is a kind of future life between people and stones.  Destiny in previous lives. It is for this reason that I fell in love with all kinds of ornamental stones."

    Meng Zitao nodded. Since the Tang and Song Dynasties, scholars and poets have attached great importance to mountains and rivers. However, mountains and rivers are not easy to be moved by others. Therefore, the ornamental stone that says "there is a force of thousands of miles within reach" has quietly appeared on the bookcases since then.  In the elegant room and hall.

    In the noisy market, people calm down and play with all kinds of stones. A kind of charm of "everything is enough, three peaks stand out, doubts are in the wild, and clouds arise in the secluded place" will suddenly linger in their hearts, "It's better to go back  ¡±, the desire to be one with nature is satisfied.  Part of the reason may be as Jin Afu said.

    Seeing that Meng Zitao was interested in his collection of ornamental stones, Jin Afu introduced Meng Zitao in detail about the origins of his ornamental stone bonsais and so on.

    After some introduction, Jin Afu said: "Teacher Meng, do you know how to appreciate ornamental stones from a professional perspective? I used to only buy ornamental stones based on my own preferences. It is rare to have a professional like you today, so I would like to ask for advice."

    Meng Zitao nodded and said: "There are currently several views in the stone appreciation world. Based on many years of experience in finding, hiding, playing, and admiring, some people have divided the appreciation of ornamental stones into four methods of stone appreciation, which can enable people to achieve the four levels.  There are two different realms: one is stone appreciation, the second is appreciation, the third is pen appreciation, and the fourth is appreciation. Some people in the field of stone appreciation believe that eye appreciation, hand appreciation, ear appreciation, and heart appreciation are very important for stone appreciation.  important."

    "For example, visual inspection means looking with your eyes. It can be viewed with joy, or it can be studied with inquiry and questions. Visual inspection is mainly to appreciate the shape, color, texture, and volume of ornamental stones. Appreciate them.  The beauty of thinness, leakage and wrinkles, the colorful colors, the endlessly changing lines, the large and small majestic bodies, the coordination of points, lines and surfaces.¡±

    ¡°In the final analysis, the appreciator of ornamental stones still needs to base his or her own level of knowledge, hobbies and tastes on the quality, shape, color, texture and other objective things inherent in the ornamental stones as objects of observation to form some direct perception impressions.  Such as hard texture, beautiful and clear colors, and images of characters, landscapes, etc.¡±

    "As you said, if you rely on your own preferences, and no matter how good you are at synthesizing various viewpoints and using them flexibly, you will understand the art of appreciating stones."

    Jin Afu smiled and said: "Listening to your words is better than ten years of reading. An expert is an expert after all."

    Meng Zitao waved his hand and was polite.

    When everyone came to the living room and sat down, Jin Afu said to Jin: "Go to my room and bring over the bonsai bonsai in my box."

    "OK."

    After Jin You left, Jin Afu said: "Teacher Meng, thank you so much for what happened this time. I won't say anything more. I have a rather peculiar ornamental stone bonsai. I want to give it as a thank you gift. Please be sure to give it to me."  Don¡¯t refuse.¡±

    Meng Zitao had already stated his attitude before and didn't want to say any more polite words, so he tactfully said that he would read something first before talking.

    After a while, Jin You came with an ornamental stone bonsai. At first glance, it seemed nothing strange, but when he saw it up close, Meng Zitao couldn't help but be surprised.

    This ornamental stone is dark green in color, has a moist appearance, and is not large in size. It is more than thirty centimeters high and about twenty centimeters wide. It is shaped like a tall and straight mountain peak.

    Most people won¡¯t be surprised when they see this place, but if there are connected peaks and ravines on the mountain peaks, forming a powerful mountain painting, everyone who sees it will be shocked!

    Amazing, so amazing!

    Meng Zitao carefully looked at this ornamental stone bonsai and sighed deeply in his heart. He couldn't believe that this ornamental stone was created by nature, because it was so magical.

    But then again, if it is man-made, then if you want to express such a rich landscape painting on such a small stone, it is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.  In terms of shape, many carvers may be able to do it, but the momentum it displays is difficult for even some peerless masters to achieve.

    Although there are some carving masters in Meng Zitao's memory who can reach this level, their styles are different. What's more, he did not see any traces of carving on this ornamental stone.His words made him angry and gave him a clue: "You are very smooth-talking. If that's the case, how could you have the courage to trick Li Xianle in the first place!"

    Mouse let out a cry of pain and said with a shy face: "I wasn't obsessed with it at the time. I regretted it later. Besides, I'm a timid person and don't dare to stay in Ling City. It's really what happened in the last bureau that made me regret it."  I¡¯m so frightened.¡±

    Meng Zitao sneered: "Haha, you mean to say that we are the ones to blame?"

    "That's not what I meant!" Mouse waved his hands repeatedly: "In the final analysis, this matter is really my fault, I accept the punishment!"

    "Oh, how do you think I should punish you?" Meng Zitao crossed his hands on his chest and looked at what kind of answer the mouse could give.

    Mouse gritted his teeth and said, "I'll compensate you with antiques. What do you think?"

    Meng Zitao said with a half-smile: "Oh, it seems that you have made a fortune, Mouse."

    Mouse waved his hand: "No, it's just a small business to earn some living expenses. It can't be compared with a big boss like you."

    Meng Zitao said: "Aren't you humble enough to buy a house here just for fun?"

    Mouse chuckled: "It's rented. How can I afford a house?"

    What the rat said was too much to believe even half of ten sentences, but Meng Zitao didn't bother to pay attention to him and said: "Wait for me here, I'll park the car, by the way, you can try to run away  one time."

    "Look at what you said, how can I run away!" The mouse patted his chest to express that he would definitely not run away.

    Meng Zitao was not afraid of him running away, so he went to park the car and said, "Take him away."

    "Okay!" With a flattering smile on his face, Mouse led Meng Zitao upstairs.

    The mouse now lives in three houses and one living room. The house is in a mess. Smelly socks, dirty underwear, etc. are scattered all over the floor. There is also an unpleasant smell. Meng Zitao covers his nose before walking in.

    "I said you don't know how to clean it? Is it comfortable to live in a pig's nest?"

    Mouse didn¡¯t take it seriously: ¡°Hey, I will ask the housekeeper to come over every two weeks to clean up. Tomorrow is the day to ask the housekeeper to come over.¡±

    "With your behavior, the housekeeping company will suffer losses."

    "How could they lose money? These people are so shrewd that they have to negotiate the price before taking action. They won't pay a penny less. They are simply the most unscrupulous businessmen among unscrupulous businessmen!" Mouse's tone became a little angry at the end.

    "You, an old profiteer, are you still afraid of them?" Meng Zitao sneered: "Okay, stop being so long and take out your things."

    "Okay, please sit down and wait for a moment. I'll be here soon."

    Meng Zitao looked at the tables and chairs in the room. Most of them were piled with clothes. There was only one stool that looked clean. However, upon closer inspection, there were some oil stains on it. It was really unacceptable to sit on it.

    After a while, the mouse came back with something: "Shopkeeper Meng, this is a tin pot made by Deng Kui that I got by chance. Can you show me if you like it?"

    Our country is a country with large tin resources in the world and one of the earliest countries to utilize tin. Daily utensils made of tin have long been available. For example, the poet Zeng Ji of the Song Dynasty said in "Chashan Collection": "The valley has the Bamboo Lady as the Bamboo Mother-in-law.  The foot warmer is also called Xinuyan." The "Xinu" here is a tin foot warmer filled with hot water, commonly known as "Tangpozi".

    The production and popularity of tin pots was relatively late. It began to take shape in the Ming Dynasty, with craft pots, literati pots and fancy-shaped play pots appearing.  The production of tin pots reached its peak in the Qing Dynasty, when combined tin pots encrusted with purple sand, porcelain, jade, lacquerware, sandalwood, coconut shells, etc. appeared successively.

    Generally speaking, the tin pots are mainly wine pots, followed by teapots.  Tin heats easily, has good ductility, is as bright as silver, and is handmade by individuals, so the pots come in all kinds of strange shapes.  In ancient folk workshops, the process of making tin pots was also relatively complicated, including more than ten processes such as tin melting, mold making, cutting, welding, and polishing.

    In ancient times, fine tin pots were also quite expensive, and some works by famous artists even cost five or six gold.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
