Chapter 223 Strange Ideas
Fang Hao wondered if he should find an opportunity to try to get to know Yu Hui.

Just thinking about it again, he felt a little strange about this idea that popped up suddenly. When did he become so curious?

Besides, why does he want to know Yu Hui? Is it to discuss how to make people look like pandas?

"Strange, why do I have such an idea?"

At this time, red oil rice noodles and Roujiamo came up. He didn't think about it any more, and concentrated on tasting the food.

After eating, Fang Hao paid the bill, thinking about what to do later.

By the way, I haven't received a message from Wei Luoyin for two days, and I don't know what progress the investigation has made.

Fang Hao thought of this and contacted Wei Luoyin.

Wei Luoyin told him that he already had important clues, and after a while, the investigation results would be given to him. Then, Wei Luoyin said that there was something urgent, so he hung up the phone.

Although Fang Hao also wants to know what the important clues are, but the so-called good meal is not afraid of being late, this kind of investigation should be more cautious, and he waits patiently.

Just about to put away the phone, Qian Min's call came.

"We were in a meeting just now, what can you do?"

"Uncle Qian, I just want to ask, what should I do next?"

"Just right, here is a task for you. A colleague named Hui Junxuan will contact you soon. Then you will go to Du Youhao's Jijinzhai together. During the period, try to contact Du Youhao."

"Then what reason should I use?"

"Let's say it was introduced by Liu Tiehan, and you want to make an imitation of that bronze jar as a cover."

"What if he doesn't agree?"

"That colleague will help you."

"Ok."

"I'll give you his mobile phone number. Remember, in order to avoid leaking secrets, you don't want to mention the case to him, just complete the task."

After talking on the phone with Qian Min, Fang Hao sent a text message to the mobile phone number Qian Min provided just now, asking him where to meet.

Hui Junxuan quickly replied the time and place, and asked him if he was too late.

Fang Hao replied that he would see you on time, called a taxi, and went to the place Hui Junxuan said.

After getting in the car, Fang Hao opened the groups he and Tang Mingshan had created, and saw that the chat group that hadn’t moved just now was already very lively, Tang Mingshan was boasting, saying how lucky he was today, he picked up a big leak and made a fortune and so on.

Fang Hao opened the photo that Tang Mingshan sent to the group, and found that it was a lacquered sandstone inkstone with a special shape.

Lacquer sand inkstone is a special ink grinding utensil in the history of lacquerware in my country. It is made of lacquer, emery and other materials with special techniques.The production of lacquer-sand inkstone has a long history, which can be traced back to the Han Dynasty at the earliest. However, due to the complicated production process and high cost, it was once lost in history.

In the Qing Dynasty, lacquer artist Lu Kuisheng resumed the production of lacquer-sand inkstones and revived them. Later, due to wars, they were lost again.Later, until the 70s, lacquer art workers from Jiangsu and Anhui provinces carried out trial production of lacquer sand inkstones, and succeeded. However, due to the contradiction between commercial mass production and complicated handicrafts, the production process of lacquer sand inkstones was limited. Inheritance is once again in trouble.

In the photo, this lacquer-sand inkstone is shaped like a phoenix tail. It is divided into two parts: the inkstone box and the inkstone pool. The whole body is black lacquered.

Tang Mingshan sent a triumphant expression: "How about it, this lacquer sand inkstone is not bad!"

Seeing Tang Mingshan bragging, Guo Kedu couldn't help sending a message: "You don't seem to have much research on lacquer sand inkstones, so how can you be sure it's from the Han Dynasty?"

"Hey, you don't know that! I have already decided to go to the capital to join Fang Hao. I have been studying hard recently. The identification of lacquer sand inkstone is exactly what I have learned in the past few days."

The person who saw this message was speechless.

Huang Zhicheng said: "Xiaoshan, you have been in this industry for so many years, don't you know that the water in this industry is very deep, and people like you can't hold it!"

"+1" Hu Jue and others echoed.

Tang Mingshan was quite excited at first, but when he saw that everyone was attacking him, he couldn't help but feel uneasy: "Hey, hey, you guys are jealous of me!"

"Cut! Measure the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!" Zhao Xiaorui erupted.

"Don't be like that, I'm scared!"

"You just spent more than 2 yuan, just in case you see it once, it will improve your memory."

"@方豪, come out and help!"

Fang Hao sent a message: "Send a photo of Yanbei!"

Tang Mingshan quickly followed suit.

After Fang Hao looked at it, he said: "My judgment is that the craftsmanship seems to be modern, and it is different from that of the Han Dynasty. In addition, the patina does not look right."

"It's over, it's over, I didn't expect it to be done!"

Tang Mingshan was very frustrated. The key point was that he was boastful just now, and now it made him even more embarrassed.

Fang Hao then sent a voice message: "I haven't finished talking yet, you may not be clear, the prototype of this square inkstone should be in the Yangcheng Museum, except for factors such as craftsmanship, this lacquered sand inkstone is still remarkable , it can be seen that the author's level is very high, I want you to find out, it is best to find this producer, I want to communicate with him a little bit."

The reason why Fang Hao is interested in this maker is also based on the current status of lacquer sand inkstone craftsmanship.

Taking Yangcheng lacquer sand inkstone craftsmanship as an example, it mainly continues the craft characteristics of "carved lacquer sand inkstone with nanmu wood", with various shapes and vivid shapes, integrating mother-of-pearl craftsmanship, carving skills, painting, calligraphy and many other factors, with 108 processes. , the process is complicated.

However, as far as art collections are concerned, although lacquer sand inkstones are well-known, due to their historical and cultural value, their artistic value has not attracted widespread attention. People's cognition of them is not yet complete, and the market value is naturally difficult to fully reflect.As a stationery, for most people, it is irrelevant, even out of reach.

The high cost of lacquer sand inkstone inevitably determines its high positioning and high price, but the collection value cannot be reflected, and not many people are interested in it now. Even if they are interested, a small lacquer sand inkstone with a diameter of about 15 cm will cost more than 1000 the price, and a few hundred yuan can buy a relatively good Duanyan, isn't Duanyan fragrant?

If things go on like this, the craft of lacquer sand inkstone may be lost again.

Perhaps, the maker of that lacquer-sand inkstone might have had to "find another way" because of the lack of money to make serious lacquer-sand inkstones. If this is indeed the case, Fang Hao still feels quite sad in his heart.

Since getting the system, Fang Hao's life has undergone earth-shaking changes. It is easy to achieve financial freedom, but after a while, he is also a little confused. Is it going to continue like this?Dominated by the system, complete some tasks, and then have more and more money in your hands, and then eat all kinds of expensive meals, buy all kinds of luxury goods, and experience all kinds of high-end life?

It's right to experience this kind of life properly, but he doesn't want to live a life of drunkenness and dreams every day, and then when he gets old, he will look back and see that he is just a passer-by in this world, and he has not left a single bit of people's praise. Chuanzhuo, that would be too much of a waste of his chance to obtain the system.

After this period of time, he kept thinking that maybe he should do something, not asking for anything else, just waiting for his descendants to remember one or two things he did in three to five hundred years.

This is why he asked Tang Mingshan to help investigate the author, maybe he can do something for the traditional craft of lacquer sand inkstone which is struggling now.

Tang Mingshan was very curious after hearing Fang Hao's voice: "Why are you suddenly interested in Qisha inkstone?"

"Don't worry about this matter. You find the person first. If you need anything, just tell me."

"Okay."

Fang Hao then sent a message: "Does any of you know Yu Hui?"

Tang Mingshan immediately replied: "You idiot Yu, probably Xiaorui is the only one in the group who doesn't know about it. Why do you want to ask him? Could it be this idiot who provoked you?"

"No, I just think he's very funny and want to get to know him."

Zheng Yu said: "This guy is really interesting. When you are free, I can introduce it to you."

Fang Hao thanked him, and felt a little relieved, thanking everyone for not asking him why he wanted to know Yu Hui, otherwise it would be really difficult for him to explain, and he couldn't say it, because Yu Hui was a bit fierce in fighting.

Fang Hao chatted with his friends in the group for a while, and after a while, the car stopped near the place Hui Junxuan said.

Fang Hao waited for a while, and a round-faced, well-built young man walked up to him: "Excuse me, are you Fang Hao?"

"I'm Fang Hao, may I ask if you know Junxuan?"

"it's me."

The two shook hands.

Hui Junxuan said directly: "It's getting late, let's go to Du Youhao's shop now."

Fang Hao nodded, and went to Jijinzhai under the leadership of Hui Junxuan, he was a little bit guilty, how could Junxuan seem to be indifferent to him, is this his illusion?

A while later, Fang Hao followed Hui Junxuan into Ji Jinzhai. First of all, his nose immediately smelled a very peculiar incense fragrance, with a sour taste in it.He immediately judged that the smell might be a mixture of incense and those high imitation bronze wares in the store.

At this time, there was only one clerk in the store, Hui Junxuan nodded to him, and asked him if Du Youhao was there.

The clerk hurriedly told Hui Junxuan politely that Du Youhao was in the back room, and he would call now.He walked to the door of the back room and knocked on the door. Soon, Du Youhao opened the door, poked his head out, and looked outside.

Du Youhao looks to be in his 40s, gentle and elegant, giving the impression that he is like a university teacher with outstanding temperament.

If a person with such an appearance doesn't know the inside story and says that he is related to a tomb robber gang and that he is ruthless, probably not many people will believe it.

When Du Youhao saw that the visitor was Hui Junxuan, with a little surprise in his eyes, he immediately greeted him with a smile.

Hui Junxuan also introduced Fang Hao to Du Youhao, saying that he was a friend from the capital and wanted to ask Du Youhao about something.

After exchanging a few words, Du Youhao invited Hui Junxuan and Fang Hao into the back room, and saw a middle-aged man in a Tang suit sitting inside. The appearance of this middle-aged man looked somewhat similar to Du Youhao's, and he might be related .
