The seller was stunned when he saw that Meng Zitao actually paid a thousand yuan and left with the sack. After a while, he stood up and wanted to chase after him, but then he remembered that he had said the words. According to the rules, there was nothing he could do about Meng Zitao, so he couldn't help but sit down slumped.
"Haha, you treacherous rabbit, hunting geese all day long, and eventually being pecked by geese, you are here today too." The stall owner next to him burst out laughing.
The reason why this "treacherous rabbit" has this nickname is because he is relatively cunning in business, but he also behaves as innocent as a rabbit. Sometimes people hate him, but there is nothing they can do about him. It can be said that, Many stall owners and buyers cursed him behind his back.
It was rare to see him deflated today, and many people around him were gloating about his misfortune.
"The treacherous rabbit" secretly sighed, and then said: "Who said I was pecked by a goose? That sack of books is just some reference books, and I made a lot of money?"
People around were laughing in all kinds of ways. We were not fools. Could we have seen the "treacherous rabbit" expression just now? It's obvious that he has suffered a loss. It depends on whether the loss is big or not.
Of course, no one thought too deeply about it, because with the shrewdness of the "treacherous rabbit", it was definitely unlikely that the particularly good things would fall into the sack. But no one expected that "Treacherous Rabbit" had not sorted out the books in the sack at all, and did not know whether the books in the sack were really good or bad. This was what made "Treacherous Rabbit" most upset and anxious.
While the "Treacherous Rabbit" was feeling upset, Meng Zitao walked out of Panjiayuan with a sack of books on his shoulders. He had no choice but to have an extra sack of books in his hand, and with some previous gains, he couldn't do it either. Panjiayuan went shopping.
As for Dajun, as soon as he returned to the country, Meng Zitao gave him leave and let him go back, because Tan Guihua had just found out that she was pregnant, and now that he had returned to the country, the possibility of Meng Zitao encountering danger was slim. , the army is dispensable by his side, it is better to let him go back.
"Teacher Meng!"
After walking for a while, Meng Zitao suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. When he looked back, it was Shen Liwei, the owner of the antique shop who had begged Meng Zitao for a painting.
Shen Liwei trotted over and said excitedly: "Teacher Meng, we meet again."
"Hello, Shopkeeper Shen." Meng Zitao put down the sack in his hand and reached out to shake hands with Shen Liwei.
Shen Liwei shook hands with Meng Zitao politely and said with a smile, "I didn't expect that Teacher Meng would still remember me. I'm really honored."
Meng Zitao said with a smile: "I may not be good at other things, but my memory is quite outstanding."
"You are too humble. Apart from other things, there are few people in the country who are more outstanding than you in calligraphy. Speaking of which, I took a big advantage back then."
Whenever he thinks about this matter, Shen Liwei feels a little proud. He actually got a calligraphy work by Meng Zitao when Meng Zitao's reputation is well-known in the country. He is really lucky, especially those of his friends who are envious of him. They all suffered from pink eye.
The two sides exchanged a few words, and Shen Liwei said he was treating a guest and hoped that Meng Zitao would appreciate it. It was hard to refuse such hospitality, and Meng Zitao had a good impression of Shen Liwei, so he agreed.
Shen Liwei noticed the sack in Meng Zitao's hand and felt a little curious. As he walked, he asked, "Teacher Meng, are all the ancient books in this sack of yours?"
"Hey, it was just because of my enthusiasm that I just had a few arguments with the seller and bought this sack of books. I don't know what's in it. But please don't let me lose too much, otherwise I will be embarrassed and embarrassed. Yes." Meng Zitao briefly explained what happened before, but of course it was impossible to tell him that there was a treasure in the sack.
After all, the two of them were not too familiar. Shen Liwei smiled after hearing this and had nothing to say other than wishing Meng Zitao good luck. At this time, he realized that Meng Zitao was still a young man in his twenties. Thinking about his calligraphy works again, they can be described as magical.
Arriving at a relatively famous restaurant nearby, the two followed the waiter into a private room and ordered a table of sumptuous dishes.
Meng Zitao couldn't stop him, so he smiled bitterly and said: "Shopkeeper Shen, there are only two of us, so just order whatever you want. Why waste it?"
Shen Liwei said with a smile: "It's rare to be lucky enough to invite Teacher Meng, and I have a big appetite. Let's eat first and then pack it. We won't deliberately waste it. Let's not talk about this, Teacher Meng, do you think this private room What¡¯s different?¡±
"Different places?" Meng Zitao looked around and found that the environment here is pretty good and antique, but if you want to say it's special, it's also not special.?Where to go.
After rolling his eyes, Meng Zitao still didn't notice anything special. Just when he was about to ask Shen Liwei, he suddenly realized something was wrong. He sniffed his nose, and sure enough, a faint fragrance penetrated his nose all the time. .
Because this fragrance is relatively light, it may not attract people's attention at first, but when people notice this fragrance and taste its fragrance carefully, they can feel that it is extraordinary. There is a hint of various floral fragrances in this fragrance. The fragrances are blended together, but there is no conflict. When you taste it again, there is a refreshing fragrance, which makes people unable to help but be intoxicated.
After savoring the unknown fragrance for a while, Meng Zitao came back to his senses and couldn't help but ask: "What kind of fragrance is this?"
At this time, a waiter happened to come in to serve the food. She introduced: "This is the incense prepared by our landlady herself. It is named 'Konggu Orchid'. Many old customers come to us just for it."
Meng Zitao smiled and praised: "It's really good."
After the waiter left, Meng Zitao said: "It's rare to see people still playing with incense."
Shen Liwei nodded and said: "It is indeed relatively niche. The proprietress here also suffered from a serious illness and could only rest during her recovery. She accidentally read about the knowledge of Yinxiang, so she started researching it, and it has been out of control since then. Speaking of which, I still brought some food with me today. I gave her an incense burner."
While talking, Shen Liwei opened a box he brought and took out an incense burner.
The production of printed incense burners began in the Song Dynasty. Because of the unique burning method, the shape of the incense burner is very rich, such as round, square, rectangular, autumn leaf shape, begonia shape, rhombus shape, Ruyi shape, melon shape, guqin shape, ancient coin shape, petal shape, etc. There are nearly a hundred types such as bottle shape, bell shape, plum blossom shape, bamboo shape, etc.
This furnace is in the shape of Ruyi and consists of several layers. There is a layer in the middle for storing rue chips, and the lower layer is used to store tools. The upper layer is a burning layer, where incense ash is usually stored. The topmost layer is covered with a furnace lid, which is hollow and carved with Ruyi auspicious patterns. , with text on it, showing a strong literati scroll temperament. It is more elegant with a mahogany base.
Having said this, everyone should be able to imagine the shape of the incense burner, but I am afraid that there is still some confusion about the incense burner. This is not surprising. Because with the trade between my country and other countries in modern times, the influx of some foreign spices and perfumes, the commercialization of finished products of traditional Chinese incense burning, and the acceleration of the pace of social life, the kind of leisurely and leisurely literati who seek refinement and elegance in everything It also had to be updated to keep up with the times.
By the time of the Republic of China, the incense burner had no practical application value and had become an antique. The number of people who could use the incense burner became increasingly rare. After that, the name of the incense burner was rarely heard.
The difference between incense seal and other incense is that incense seal must have a mold (incense seal). This mold is hollow, and the empty space is filled with spices. After compacting, the mold is gently lifted, and what is left is the fragrance. Burning incense.
For the mold, it is also a requirement for forming the incense seal. Its pattern must be a single stroke with no intersection and no second gap. For example, if the incense seal pattern is a "big" character, this will not work; because its middle part crosses, it is a The word "С" is not acceptable, because there are two gaps among its three strokes. If it is a character "B", it is OK, because it neither crosses nor has any gaps.
By analogy, no matter how simple or complex it is, the incense seal must be made according to this principle. If you want to compare it with something we can usually see now, you can think of the coiled incense used to diffuse mosquitoes.
The incense seal must be padded with compacted dry incense ash so that it does not absorb the odor of fire, so that the incense seal can burn. In addition, because the incense seal is made of unpressed spices, it cannot be turned upside down. It is difficult to ignite it with matches and other open flames. You can only use incense coal or smoldering incense sticks to ignite the incense seal. The incense seal can only be ignited. Only by burning can the aroma be released well and for a longer time.
The burning time of incense is not only related to the total length of the lines of the incense pattern, but also to the selection of different spice formulas and the degree of compaction. Different spices have different burning rates due to their different internal qualities, and the same formula depends on the degree of compaction. The difference will also affect its burning rate.
As for the spice formula of Indian incense, there are many combinations. As long as non-toxic spices can be used, think about the rich varieties of spices in the world. Their combinations and combinations cannot be studied by ordinary people even in a lifetime.
Shen Liwei smiled and asked, "Teacher Meng, how do you think of my incense burner?"
"It's pretty good. It should be made by a famous artist. It's not easy to find incense burners of this quality nowadays."
Meng Zitao is not deliberately complimenting. Due to the small number of people who play and the small number of collectors, some incense burners that have been handed down will disappear for various reasons. It is indeed difficult to find good incense burners now.
"Yes, I have spent a lot of effort on this incense burner. If it were anyone else, I would really not be happy to take over this job."
Shen Liwei seemed a little complaining, and immediately added: "Teacher Meng, don't get me wrong, he and I have nothing to do with each other."
Meng Zitao secretly laughed. If Shen Liwei hadn't mentioned it, he wouldn't have thought about it. Now haha.
Shen Liwei also knew that he had done the thing of not having three hundred taels of silver here, and he seemed a little embarrassed. However, the more he explained this kind of thing, the easier it would be to cause misunderstandings, so he simply didn't mention it.
"Bang! This is it." At this moment, someone suddenly opened the door and three people walked in carelessly. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)If so, I'm really not happy to take this job. "
