The private dining room of Yipin Tea House is very large, covering an area of ​​40 to 50 square meters. The private room also has a uniquely designed European-style small bar. The display cabinets against the wall of the bar are lined with various types of famous wines, including foreign wines.

Mostly. Near the bar, there is also a luxurious living room. A beautiful crystal chandelier hangs in the middle of the living room. The red leather sofa has a unique shape and forms an arc around the room. In front of the sofa is

The TV background wall is covered with brown earth core rock tiles, and a 52-inch LCD TV is hung on the wall. A set of high-end stereo combinations are placed around the TV.

"Hahaha, Xiao Fang, ordinary people can't just come in to Boss Ji's box, especially the foreign wines he collects. He protects them like his own sons. It's hard for me to even take a sip!"

After Song Longshan entered the box, he found a seat at random and sat down. He was obviously familiar with everything in the box.

"Old man Song, you are making fun of me again. No matter what happens to these foreign rubbish of mine, they are not as valuable as the special Moutai in your cellar. If you are willing, let's s I will exchange two bottles for you. How about one?

..."

"Just change it...come on..."

...

Fang Feiyang had been chatting for a while with the old man in the fancy T-shirt, Mr. Song, and the middle-aged man in the private room of the tea house. Through Mr. Song’s introduction, he got to know the man wearing the fancy Hawaiian T-shirt.

The old man's name is Ji Fuhua. He is the owner of this teahouse and a senior antique collector. He also runs an antique shop called "Huabaozhai" in the antique trading market. And he is following Mr. Song downstairs.

There was a middle-aged man named Qiao Jianjun, who was in the jade business. When Mr. Song introduced him, the other party handed Fang Feiyang a business card in a very polite and business-like manner, with his name and mobile phone number simply printed on it.

There was a girl who looked like a college student next to me, Mr. Song. When everyone was going upstairs, he suddenly received a call. He whispered a few words in his ear and left in a hurry.

Before the girl left, Fang Feiyang couldn't help but look at her a few more times, secretly regretting that he never had the chance to have dinner with such a beautiful beauty.

"Xiao Fang, since you agreed to transfer this Fang Gu Yan to Lao Ji, I can't say anything more. This time I let him take advantage of it! Hey, when you had dinner at my house last time, why didn't you say that you had this

Something?"

When Song Longshan said this, he did not shy away from Ji Fuhua's presence at all, and there was a hint of jealousy in his tone. The implication was, if you had told me earlier, I would have bought it.

"Oh, Old Man Song, you can't talk like that. I didn't take advantage of your friend. Although the price I offered is not as good as the Qingfeng Mingyue Laokeng Duan Inkstone that Poly Auctioned at the beginning of the year, it is at least better than the current market price.

The price is 10% higher, and you also know that publicity fees and handling fees are deducted from auction house sales."

Boss Ji was happily appreciating the ancient inkstone he had just received. He couldn't put it down and rubbed it. He didn't care at all that the stains on the inkstone stained his hands. When he heard Song Longshan's words, he immediately became unhappy and dropped the inkstone in his hand.

Inkstone, shouted angrily.

"It doesn't matter. Since I have agreed to sell it, this item is now owned by Boss Ji, and I have already collected his check." Fang Feiyang hurriedly came out with a smile to smooth things over, "Actually, I got it by accident this afternoon.

, and now I’ve made a lot of money by selling it!”

"oh?"

Song Longshan was very interested when he heard it and said: "It turns out that you picked up this ancient inkstone. Then first tell me how you got this treasure? Let us old men share it together."

So Fang Feiyang explained in a clear and logical manner the purpose of coming to the antique market in the afternoon, helping the young stall owner pack up his calligraphy and paintings before the thunderstorm arrived, and finally the two of them took shelter from the rain in the pavilion. He accidentally fell in love with this inkstone.

, of course, Fang Feiyang secretly omitted his mysterious perceptual ability. He knew that it was better to bury this incredible super-sensory ability in his heart.

When Fang Feiyang said that he bought two calligraphy and painting paintings and this Fang Inkstone from a young stall owner for 600 yuan, even though several people present were all millionaires, they all sighed at his kindness.

Luck, after all, the joy of picking up leaks cannot be measured by money and wealth.

If Fang Feiyang hadn't been so willing to help others, such a good thing wouldn't have happened to him.

When Mr. Song looked at Fang Feiyang, his face was full of approval and he kept nodding.

Finally, Fang Feiyang took out the small black Yuan Dynasty seal from his pocket and asked Mr. Song to help him palm the eyes. After reading it, Song Longshan came to the same conclusion as Fang Feiyang originally thought. The seal was indeed used by the Mongols.

Yes, the text above is Phasiba script. As for the current market value, it is about three or four thousand.

"Unexpectedly, this young man has better eyesight than an old man like me. He can tell whether a stone is good or bad from a dirt-covered stone."

Boss Ji also became interested in Fang Feiyang. According to Old Man Ji's observation, from his demeanor to his knowledge of antiques, Fang Feiyang was an outsider in their circle, but Song Longshan seemed to have a liking for him.

Plus, but judging from the tone of their conversation, they didn't know each other for a long time, which made Boss Ji unable to guess what kind of person Fang Feiyang was. Moreover, he could pick up the leaks twice in a row, although the items were

Value is nothing in their eyes, but such good luck makes Boss Ji envious.

Fang Feiyang waved his hands quickly and said: "No, no, I don't dare to take Boss Ji's words seriously. I'm just fooled. I'm just lucky. Plus, I see that the brother who came out to set up a stall is a little younger than me, so...

I wanted to help him, but I didn’t expect that I ended up taking advantage of him.”

"Well, young man, don't you want to know the origin of this ancient inkstone? I can tell you about it now." Boss Ji had already arranged for the waiters in the teahouse to take the dishes. The four of them left the small living room and ate and chatted around the dining table.

"First of all, this is a Duan Inkstone. Duan Inkstone is the first of the four famous inkstones in my country. Judging from the style, it should be an object from the mid-Qing Dynasty. The carvings on it are relatively exquisite, showing strange peaks and rocks in such a small area. The old pines and buildings are really rare to see.”

Fang Feiyang listened to Boss Ji's explanation attentively, his eyes sparkling. Even he himself didn't know when he started to have a strong interest in the knowledge related to these antiques.

Boss Ji continued: "Secondly, I judged that its material is Laokeng inkstone. You can see that after I cleaned it several times, the surface of this square inkstone is purple with a little bit of cyan. Look again, I used my hands gently

When you press the inkstone in Laokeng, moist water vapor will appear immediately. Take a breath and see that there is fog on it. This is also a major feature of Laokeng inkstone, "you can grind ink by breathing". It also has the biggest

Its characteristic is that it makes a "wooden sound" when knocked, Xiao Fang, listen to it..."

Fang Feiyang listened attentively, and sure enough, when Boss Ji knocked on it, it made a wooden sound of "tuk-tuk-tuk-tuk", which made Fang Feiyang marvel.

"However, the last point is that I am a little unsure about the inscription on this ancient inkstone. It is engraved with 'Search all the strange peaks to make a draft' and the inscription is 'Bitter Melon Monk'. I am not sure that this thing belongs to this master. After all, now

There are very few ancient inkstones with inscriptions on them, and there is no record of what the inkstone he used for painting looked like!"

The master mentioned by Boss Ji is the "Bitter Melon Monk" inscribed on the inkstone. His real name is Zhu Ruoji, a Qing Dynasty painter and a master of the painting world. He was originally a royal nobleman in the late Ming Dynasty. In the early Qing Dynasty, he was driven by the fate of his country and his family.

, became a monk in Xiangshan Temple and changed his name to Shi Tao. From then on, he traveled all over the world and traveled all over the country. Because he enjoyed the famous mountains and rivers, his painting style was novel, energetic and unrestrained. His representative works include "Drawings of Searching for Strange Peaks", "Ce Zang"

"Picture", "Picture of Huaiyang Jieqiu", etc. It is also said that he liked to eat bitter melon after becoming a monk and never left the storehouse for meals, so he called himself "Bitter Melon Monk".

"Old man Ji, you don't have to do any research. I told you that you were taking advantage as soon as you walked in. You still don't admit it. The inkstone in Fang Laokeng was indeed used by Master Shi Tao. It was when he completed his masterpiece "Searching for Strange Peaks"

After drafting the drawing, I asked a famous craftsman from Xiangshan Temple to make an inkstone. He carved the inscription himself. Although it is only one sentence, it has far-reaching meaning."

Song Longshan's tone of voice was a bit sour.

He rolled his eyes at Ji Fuhua and continued: "So I just blamed Xiao Fang for not telling me earlier. I dare say that no one except me dares to really conclude that this is the Duan inkstone used by Shi Tao for painting. Because there is one in my collection of books.

Regarding the fragments of stone inkstones, it records the shape and appearance of some masters' inkstones in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties..."

"That's right! Haha..."

This time, after hearing Song Longshan's words, Boss Ji didn't blow his beard or glare, he looked at Fang Feiyang with a smile, slapped his thigh, and said: "Okay, even if I take advantage of you, young man, today, but the transaction in our circle

The rules can't be changed, so let's just give this membership card to you. In the future, when you go to the places above to play, you may get special care. I haven't used any specific ones."

As he spoke, he took out a shiny silver membership card from his wallet and handed it to Fang Feiyang. It had four big characters "Langting International" printed on it in gold seal script.

Fang Feiyang thought it was a dining discount card for an ordinary hotel, so he accepted it, stood up, toasted Boss Ji with a glass of wine, and said thank you.

Qiao Jianjun, who had been sitting silently next to Fang Feiyang, glanced at the membership card out of the corner of his eye and was secretly surprised. He suddenly showed an unusual expression, approached Fang Feiyang, patted him on the shoulder, and whispered, "

Little brother, keep this card, it will be useful in the future."

At this time, Fang Feiyang had no idea that this was the platinum VIP membership card of "Langting International", nor did he know how powerful this card was.
Chapter completed!
