Fang Feiyang and Chen Jian came to the car with four antique treasures.

The two porcelain jars and unknown weapons that needed to be descaled and cleaned were placed under the rear seat first.

An imitation of the Xuande stove from the Qing Dynasty and a set of purple-glazed lamps and cups from the Song Dynasty were held in Chen Jian's arms.

Fang Feiyang started the black Santana, put it into gear, and was about to take Chen Jian back to the Confucian Temple Antique Market. Suddenly he seemed to remember something, and took out two thousand yuan from his wallet and handed it to Chen Jian.

"This is two thousand, it's for you, take it!"

Chen Jian was stunned when he heard this. He obviously didn't expect that Fang Feiyang would give him money. He turned around and asked: "Boss, is this?... You won't pay me my salary so early."

Fang Feiyang smiled slightly and said: "You kid, why are you pretending to be in front of me... You know, this is the rule, and you deserve the two percent commission."

Fang Feiyang said that the rule in the antique industry refers to "drawing commission", which means that if the transaction between the buyer and the buyer is successful through the introduction of an intermediary, then the intermediary will charge a certain percentage of commission. Generally, it is 3% of the seller and 100% of the buyer.

2.

This rule is commonly known as "make three and break two".

In fact, when Fang Feiyang handed two thousand yuan to Chen Jian, Chen Jian guessed what was going on when he heard the amount of money. But the other party was Chen Jian's boss, so of course the boy didn't dare to "accept it" directly.

.And strictly speaking, Fang Feiyang and Chen Jian are already considered employers. In this case, Chen Jian, the middleman, facilitating the business should be considered his job.

However, Fang Feiyang didn't think so. He gained a lot from Chen Jian's introduction this time, and it was a worthwhile trip.

Now it is appropriate to give this shop assistant a commission according to the rules.

"Thank you, boss."

When Chen Jian saw that Boss Fang insisted on giving the money to him, he accepted it with joy. Two thousand yuan was nothing to Fang Feiyang, but it was also a lot of income for him.

Fang Feiyang drove his Santana and quickly arrived at the big archway of the Confucian Temple Antique Market. He was not going to go to the shop himself, so he told Chen Jian to go back to the shop and hand over the two treasures to shopkeeper Yao first, while he himself

It's time to go back and deal with the small Shuicheng porcelain jar and another bronze weapon.

After Chen Jian got off the bus, Fang Feiyang immediately turned around and drove towards his master Song Longshan's villa.

That piece of blue and white Xiaoshui Cheng was in extremely poor condition and was full of oil stains. Fang Feiyang asked himself whether he still had the ability to decontaminate and clean it and restore it to its true appearance. But for the unknown weapon that looked like a spear but not a spear, he was not so confident.

After all, Fang Feiyang has only been in the industry for half a year and has no experience in handling bronzes.

At this time, I can only ask for help from the master.

At this time, Mr. Song would usually be playing with his flowers and plants in the yard of the villa, pruning and watering the potted plants, feeling at ease and enjoying himself.

Sure enough, when Boss Fang appeared at the door of the villa with two treasures in his arms, the old man was squatting in the southwest corner of the yard to move the potted plants to receive light.

"Feiyang, it's coming! Come in quickly."

The old man didn't even raise his head, and a hearty voice came from the yard.

Fang Feiyang walked up to Song Longshan in three steps and said, "Master, I just got an old item with a large door. I think it is old enough. Please give it a try."

In front of the old man, Fang Feiyang said respectfully. There was also a bit of impatience in his tone.

"Oh?... Well, take it to the study first, and I'll wash my hands and come back."

"Well, okay."

Fang Feiyang kept running with the porcelain jar and "weapon" in his arms, and went straight to the second floor.

The first piece, the dirty blue and white piece of water, is put aside for now. The dirt on this thing will be removed sooner or later, so there is no rush. The key is to find out the origin of the other bronze item for the old man.

Is the king with black riding and red armor seen in the video a figure who will go down in history? What does this strange weapon have to do with him?

Fang Feiyang believes that his master’s profound historical knowledge and profound experience in antiques will definitely be able to answer it for him.

After a while, Song Longshan also came to the study.

At this time, Fang Feiyang had already unfolded the two newspapers that wrapped it, and the "weapon" about 30 centimeters long was lying quietly on the old man's desk with a thick patina.

"What is it? Let me take a look... Well, this is called 'beryllium'. It was produced in the late Spring and Autumn Period. It is a stabbing weapon used in war. The body of the weapon is similar to the sword body but slightly shorter. It has a ridge in the middle line and a blood groove on the ridge.

.Its function is similar to that of a spear hundreds of years later."

Song Longshan is worthy of being the two-term president of the Collectors Association and a great scholar in the antiques world. He even knows such unpopular knowledge.

The old man smiled and gently turned over the "beryllium" in his hand. While explaining it to his apprentice, he also asked how Fang Feiyang got it.

Fang Feiyang briefly told the story of "shopping" at Hua Dehai's house.

"Fifty yuan?...Haha, you kid picked up another leak. Regardless of whether this bronze weapon is a historical weapon or not, considering its rarity and having been preserved for thousands of years, it will definitely cost more than this.

.”

Song Longshan said cheerfully.

"Master, is there any way to remove the patina on this weapon?"

Fang Feiyang asked expectantly.

"I have an ancient recipe here. I learned it from an old friend in the archaeological field... Use 160 grams of fine wood chips, 60 grams of talcum powder, 240 grams of wheat bran, then add 50 ml of vinegar, and mix into a paste.

, apply it on rusty copperware, and after it dries, the patina will naturally come off."

When Fang Feiyang heard this, his mind was filled with black threads. Where would he go to find fine sawdust, talcum powder, and wheat bran at this moment?

"Uh... um... master, are there any other ways to remove patina?"

Fang Feiyang scratched his head and asked embarrassedly.

Song Longshan saw that his apprentice was a little anxious. He thought for a moment and then said, "Well, go to the bathroom and get a toothpaste."

"toothpaste?"

"Haha, don't underestimate toothpaste. It contains a lot of abrasive silicon, which can grind away the oxide layer on the surface of copperware, and it can also achieve good results."

Song Longshan slightly chinned his head and spread the relevant knowledge to his precious apprentice.

This method is simple and easy to operate. The key is that it uses simple materials and can be obtained locally.

Fang Feiyang found a tube of toothpaste and a piece of coarse-fiber white gauze. According to the old man's request, he pressed the toothpaste-coated white gauze tightly and polished the patina on the surface of the weapon up and down in the vertical direction.

About half an hour later, two pairs of white gauze were replaced, and the thick patina was indeed ground away.

Fang Feiyang wrapped the weapon called "Beryllium" in a clean towel and wiped it vigorously. At this moment, 80% of the original form of this thing was revealed.

The blood grooves on both sides of the blade are about 3 mm deep, and an animal head is cast at the rear end of the blood groove. The pastern is hollow. The mouth of the pastur is oblate and the mouth rim is concave. The body of the spear is fully decorated with diamond-shaped geometric dark patterns, and the pattern is like a

There is a Chinese character for "rice", which is well-cast and has elegant patterns.

Its front part is in the shape of a curved triangle, narrow at the front and wide at the back, and the middle spine is shaped into a three-dimensional prism. This shape is extremely aggressive.

The entire weapon's lines were smooth and smooth under the sunlight outside the window. Most of the green patina was removed, and now the body of the weapon appears light yellow.

"Master, there seems to be some engravings here... take a look."

Fang Feiyang handed the cleaned instrument body to Song Longshan. These words had existed before. At that time, the patina was too thick and the strokes were almost invisible. Now after polishing, the writing is clearly legible.

"Wu...Wu Wangfu Chai...self-effect..."

Song Longshan recognized it word by word, read it word by word, and was immediately surprised.
