Siheyuan: I am Du Shouyi

Chapter 53
Today was the day when Du Shougui came home from school. She stayed at school for a week, and she missed home very much.What she didn't expect was that there was an extra Erha in the family.

Erha is very smart, as long as he is close to Du Shouyi, he will desperately flatter him.As soon as we met it, it yelled "Shou Gui, Shou Gui", and danced a unique swing dance on the wooden dummy.This move had defeated Gong Xiaobei before, and now it was Du Shougui's turn to fall too.

For a moment, Du Shougui forgot all he wanted to say, and just played with Erha.

Du Shouyi originally wanted to ask about the situation of the medical school, but when he saw the situation in front of him, he shut his mouth wisely.His attention is not here, there are still a lot of treasures waiting for him in the space.

With nothing else to do, he took out the small salt shaker and walked to the side of the sink to clean it.After cleaning the dirt from the salt shaker, the blue and white pastel floral jar comes to life.

Du Shouyi read a lot of books, but there were no pictures in those books.Until now, he has not been able to completely and accurately distinguish between bucket colors, five colors, and pastel colors. This is the disadvantage of not having any expert advice.

Of course, he didn't study it very hard, and just looked at it.At this stage, he is adhering to a principle: every yellow must buy.

Yellow has been a forbidden color among the people since the Tang Dynasty. In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, regulations were stricter. Only the royal family was allowed to use it for exclusive use, and the production and use of it by the people was prohibited.

With the imperial court's endorsement, the yellow glazed porcelain must be an official kiln.In this way, he only needs to pay attention to the exquisiteness, and does not need to have rich professional knowledge in distinguishing authenticity, dating, etc.

Yellow glaze must belong to the official kiln, so its value is very high?On the contrary, the price of yellow glazed porcelain is cheaper.

As a daily necessities for the imperial palace, the output of yellow glazed porcelain is huge.At the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were still 10,000+ pieces of unopened yellow-glazed porcelain in the warehouse of the Forbidden City. The last batch of porcelain became the earliest porcelain for state banquets.

With the impact of "low-end goods", the high-end products of yellow glazed porcelain have also been implicated, and it has not reflected its due value at all.Just like the small plate of 'Hongzhi Jiaohuang Glaze', Du Shouyi bought such precious porcelain at a very low price.

Du Shouyi doesn't care what the price of yellow-glazed porcelain will be in the future. He wants to be the "Buffett" of the collectors, and he will hold on to the fine products of yellow-glazed porcelain for ten years or decades.He believes that all of the above are deceiving ghosts, Porcelain Xiaobai just thinks it is safer.

The porcelain furniture was just incidental, but it was the calligraphy and paintings that made Du Shouyi itch the most.

Especially Mi Fu's 'Lushui Tiao Ge Tou'.If it was true that Du Shouyi felt that this life was worth it, no matter how much it was worth, he would keep it in the space for decades and never let it appear in the world easily.

Every public display is a kind of harm to these paper products and silk products. "If you love it, don't exhibit it", this is the attitude of the Forbidden City towards the collection of calligraphy and painting, and Du Shouyi agrees very much.

After a while, He Yushui came home and could finally have dinner.Tonight, He Yuzhu went to his mother-in-law's house to flatter her, and He Yushui was working at Du's house.

He Yuzhu and Teacher Ran are making rapid progress now, and they will talk about marriage within half a year.Ran Qiuye also often comes to the courtyard to visit, and she unexpectedly has two more friends here: Lou Xiaoe and Gong Xiaobei.

Ran Qiuye, Lou Xiaoe, and Gong Xiaobei are now faintly developing towards the 'Three Sisters'.They have already met with Gong Xiaobei twice this week. Although each time is not very long, this small triangle has already taken shape.

In the original novel, Lou Xiao'e was a little alienated from the courtyard house, except for the deaf grandma, I didn't see anyone in contact with her.Now this situation made Du Shouyi feel a little bit like a magic reform.However, these three women are called the "Three Honeys" in the alley, so there is nothing wrong with getting closer.

What puzzled Du Shouyi was: why didn't Xu Damao stop it?
One is Shazhu's object, and the other is Shazhu's younger brother's object. He just looks at his wife and they have an intersection?

The ecology of the courtyard house was quietly changing under Du Shouyi's disturbance.Sometimes even Du Shouyi himself couldn't understand it.

Time flowed, and finally arrived in the dead of night.After Du Shouyi was sure it was safe, he took out the big wooden box from the space.

When the ten calligraphy and paintings were carefully examined one by one, Du Shouyi became a little clear that this was obviously a 'Su Dongpo series'.

Those paintings were created by calligraphers and painters of the past dynasties based on Su Dongpo's life or the artistic conception in his poems. The works of Huang Gongwang, Shen Zhou and other famous artists are impressively listed.There is also a Kangxi imperial brush among them.

This imperial pen is a copy of Su Dongpo's "Raspberry Stickers".Du Shouyi knew that there was also a Royal Brush with the same content hidden in the Forbidden City in Tai=North. It seemed that Kangxi really liked Su Dongpo's calligraphy.

'This is definitely Su Dongpo's little fan. Du Shouyi carefully read all the calligraphy and paintings in the box, and immediately made a judgment on the collector.

Including Mi Fu's calligraphy, there is no "Sanxitang" seal on calligraphy and painting.It shows that these works flowed into the hands of this collector before the Qianlong Dynasty.

After Kangxi and before Qianlong, a little fan who loved Su Dongpo very much, maybe still surnamed Aixinjueluo.

Such a narrow range is very small. Du Shouyi kept this inference in his heart, and maybe he can look it up when he has a chance in the future.

With this 'Su Dongpo series' as indirect evidence, the possibility of Mi Fu's handwriting being authentic has greatly increased.Du Shouyi could no longer be satisfied with such a conclusion.

Next, there are some jade and porcelain in the box.Du Shouyi couldn't tell the good from the bad, either. In short, it was expensive.

The calligraphy and paintings are not for sale, but these small and large gadgets will be the "luxury Ferraris" of future generations.Sooner or later it belongs to someone else, and he won't be too interested.

That Xuande furnace is not bad, but the water in the Xuande furnace is too deep, so it is better to ask an expert to have a look.So don't worry, just let it go.

The only thing left in the box that I didn't see was a small nanmu box.Opening the lid of the box, there was a suet white jade ring finger wrapped in silk floss, and a gold hoop was inlaid in the middle of the ring finger.The whole piece of jade is white and flawless, without any blemishes, and it is so moist that a puddle of oil can seep out of it.

"A white jade wrench inlaid with gold and jade?"

Du Shouyi tried his best to search his memory. He vaguely remembered that he had heard someone mention it before, but after a long time, his memory was a little fuzzy.

Among the emperors of the Qing Dynasty, there is no one who loves to pull his fingers more than Lord Qianlong.

What is good at the top must be followed by the bottom.During the reign of Qianlong, not only the Ministry of Internal Affairs worked hard to build it, but ministers from all over the country also presented many rare and rare treasures.Emeralds, emeralds, rhino horns, etc., are countless.

'Qianlong? ! '

Thinking of Qianlong, a flash of lightning flashed in Du Shouyi's mind, and he finally remembered where he had heard the phrase 'gold inlaid with jade'.

It is rumored that Lord Qianlong had a white jade finger wrench that he loved, and he kept it in a small silk bag, and would never let it go, and would take it out to play with it from time to time.

In the previous life, a descendant of Lord Qianlong once caused a disturbance.He claimed to have a jade ring handed down from his ancestors, which was the favorite of Lord Qianlong during his lifetime.Estimated at least one hundred million.

This incident caused a lot of repercussions at the beginning.

The wrench finger is a little bluish in color and is made of jade, but all the experts left after seeing it.He said yes, that's right, he couldn't stand in the way of people's money.

Du Shouyi heard people talking about this in Liulichang back then.I heard another anecdote at the time:
The "Great Review of Qianlong Prime Minister" painted by Castiglione surprised Qianlong himself because of the perfect details.

In the picture, there is a hoop on the finger of Qianlong's right hand.

Some people say that it is the climbing of the horsewhip.But the hoop in the painting does not protrude, and the riding whip is not so thin.

So there is another saying that the thumb is a 'gold inlaid jade' suet white jade wrench.And this 'perfect' finger is the rumored 'love' of Lord Qianlong!
Because most people are always willing to show their best side when they take pictures, and Qianlong is probably no exception.

These small objects and records in the inner palace have been messed up after the Empress Dowager Xishou and Pu Yi left the palace.In later generations, no one can tell who is who.

This 'beloved' finger has become something of a mystery in the antique trade.Where the hell is it?What does it look like?Is it the one in the painting?
But now, isn't what Du Shouyi is holding in his hand a 'perfect' finger wrench with 'gold inlaid white jade'? !What kind of trouble is this going to be?
Du Shouyi has dabbled in antiques not long ago, he is a half-understood 'green skin', and he is far from getting started.He just made a random estimate of the price, and he was not sure at all.

But fools are always the luckiest
How much is Su Dongpo's ink bamboo worth in the 60s? 1 yuan.This is the purchase price of the cultural relic store.

But the cultural relics store will never accept paintings like him, and pay for them as long as they look good.A transaction of tens of thousands of dollars, in terms of currency value alone, is equivalent to hundreds of millions in the future.If it weren't for the rounds of verification by experts, who would be so refreshing?Who dares to be so forthright?
This means that he hasn't worn it for long, and he doesn't have a deep understanding of the unit 'ten thousand'.If it was changed to 'billion', do you think he can still be so 'magnanimous'?
Ten thousand won Su Dongpo's painting, which is barely considered the official price.But even [-] can't win Mi Fu.In terms of calligraphy, the value of Sumi and Sumi cannot be compared in the same breath.

Adding additional originals, curios and furniture would be a bit much. 3 yuan, this is no longer a discount price, but a fracture price, or even an amputation price.

But why did Jin Wenshun take advantage of him?Is he also a mallet who doesn't understand the market?Or are you afraid that your wealth will be confiscated if you show it to the officials?Or something so good that he couldn't find anyone to sell it at all?
have no idea.Even many years later, when Du Shouyi truly understood the value of these things today, he still didn't know.However, the descendants of Jin Wenshun benefited greatly from it.
PS: Interested book lovers can Baidu "Dayuetu" and look at the finger.Flower growers do not lie to flower growers. :)
