Chen Wenzhe didn't know what Li Tianqiang and others were thinking, because he was already attracted by the Ming Dynasty cultural relics in front of him.
The height of this hanging bottle is 17.3 cm; the maximum width is also 10 cm;
Especially the width of the jade on it is 5 centimeters. After holding it up and weighing it, the weight should be 93 grams.
Feeling that his hand was okay, Chen Wenzhe laughed again.
This hanging vase is woven with gold wire and inlaid with a round jade piece. The lotus carved on it has the meaning of "continuity".
The mouth, feet and edges of the bottle are all decorated with Ganoderma lucidum patterns.
There are chrysanthemums inlaid with gemstones in the vase, and the lace is finely woven with gold wire, which is a symbol of longevity.
The long-tailed sacred bird flying among the flowers is a symbol of longevity and high status.
If Chen Wenzhe had seen this kind of treasure before he went abroad, wouldn't he be overjoyed?
However, now his horizons and knowledge have improved, especially since he has made many flowerpots inlaid with gemstones and gold wires. Doesn't his horizons become even higher?
This thing is very good, but it hasn't shocked him enough. At most, he just can't put it down.
"There's more in there!" Chen Xingchen had already expected Chen Wenzhe's performance.
Not to mention Chen Wenzhe, even Chen Xingchen is no longer a student of that school.
It turned out that although he was working under Professor Tao, he had also been exposed to society.
But there is always a layer between us and real social life.
It's different now. After all, he has experienced social baptism for more than a year, and he understands many things better.
He knows very well that if Chen Wenzhe had not provided him with a high-quality platform, he would never have achieved what he has achieved now.
Therefore, even if he already has some ambitions of success, he is definitely not in the dark.
Because compared to his achievements, they are really nothing compared to Chen Wenzhe.
"Really?" Chen Wenzhe took a look inside the hanging bottle and found that there were actually two things inside.
I took out one piece conveniently. It was a Ming Dynasty silk inlaid jade inlaid with precious gold Ruyi.
He knew that there was one such thing in a domestic museum. It was longer, 46 centimeters in length;
The one in front of me is relatively small, only thirteen centimeters in length.
The one in front of me is more exquisite and looks very small and exquisite.
This Ruyi piece is inlaid with jade and precious stones, and is decorated with flower branches extending from the Chinese character "Shou" and a bat pattern.
The handle is inlaid with jade pieces, engraved with egrets and lotus flowers.
The homophonic pronunciation of "egret" and "lotus" is "all the way to Lianke", which means wishing the officials success in their scientific examinations.
Combined with "Longevity", bat and other patterns, it is "Longevity, Longevity and Ruyi", which enhances the auspicious meaning of Ruyi.
In addition, the lower part of the back of the Ruyi handle is engraved with inscriptions and cloud patterns.
The origin of Ruyi is not yet clear, but it can be seen that its functions have continued to expand over time.
Some scholars believe that Ruyi is derived from Hut.
According to literature, the wat is generally a curved board 2 feet 6 inches long.
Depending on the level of the holder, the materials are different.
Therefore, in ancient my country, the wat was a symbol of power and social status.
It is known that a piece of silver Ruyi was unearthed in Famen Temple, and it has clear records.
Ruyi was transformed by Taoists and gradually evolved into a Ganoderma-shaped amulet.
From the Yuan Dynasty, Ruyi began to be given as gifts, and by the Ming Dynasty, Ruyi were mostly made of gold, jade and other precious materials.
Ruyi at this time was decorated with auspicious patterns and presented as tribute to the emperor or presented to members of the royal family.
The Ruyi in front of Chen Wenzhe has an inscription engraved on the back of the handle, "In the Xinchou Year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, the silver production Bureau produced 90% color mine gold."
Obviously, this thing came from the Ming Dynasty court.
As for the previous hanging vase, only the royal family of the Ming Dynasty was qualified to use it, and only they could make such an exquisite work.
Since Chen Xingchen said it was a three-piece suit, there must be another one.
Chen Wenzhe looked inside the hanging bottle again, and sure enough, there was something else inside.
This is a woman's jewelry, a hairpin used to insert on the head.
However, this gold hairpin is more precious. It is a pair of golden hairpins with bergamot flowers and branches from the Ming Dynasty.
The length of this gold hairpin is 12.1 cm, the head length is 1.3 cm, the head length is 1.5 cm, and the weight is 20 grams.
From the decorative content of the hairpin, we can see that it is related to Buddhism.
A monk's staff, and a Buddha's hand with the index finger on the thumb.
There is also a pattern of a toad sitting on a lotus leaf, which means "succession", that is, it can continue to rise.
Women who want to show their faith generally like to wear such hairpins.
"These things are obviously from the palace. Where did you buy them, senior brother?"
After seeing things, I feel that they are definitely not simple, and if three things appear at one time, there may be more.
Chen Xingchen said with a little regret: "I bought it from a prodigal son. I heard that his family also has a golden dragon inlaid with silk and jade. There should be nothing else."
"That golden dragon is not for sale?" Chen Wenzhe asked curiously.
"I heard that I haven't found it yet. If I find it, I will definitely sell it." Chen Xingchen said with a smile.
Chen Wenzhe nodded. For a prodigal, there is no ancestral treasure that cannot be sold.
Although Chen Wenzhe did not use the backtracking skill, he could see that these treasures were carefully preserved.
Obviously, their original owners also knew the value of these items.
As for how much Chen Xingchen paid for it, Chen Wenzhe didn't ask much.
Since it is given to him, it is a favor. In future interactions with each other, greetings and farewells are indispensable.
Only by helping each other can brotherhood last long.
"I'm paying attention. As long as his golden dragon wants to take action, he will definitely come to me." Chen Xingchen finally said.
"Well, I'm really curious and want to see how the craftsmanship is."
Chen Wenzhe was telling the truth. He just wanted to see the production process of these things.
As for the value of things, it is nothing to Chen Wenzhe.
The golden dragon inlaid with silk and jade is definitely more important than the three pieces now. After all, it is a dragon-shaped instrument!
"Since we're talking about dragons, I won't be polite."
Finally, after Chen Xingchen finished showing off, Li Tianqiang got the chance.
However, neither Chen Wenzhe nor Chen Xingchen saw the weird smile on Li Tianqiang's face.
It was a proud smile. If you had seen it, you might not be surprised.
Li Tianqiang had no choice. Although he was Li Jinli's cousin, he was always one level away from Chen Wenzhe's senior brother. He still had to give way to Chen Xingchen.
Now that he got the opportunity, he felt like he was going to grow taller, and the smile on his face began to spread everywhere.
"Let me tell you first, these little things are all obtained through favors, not bought, let alone bribed."
As he spoke, Li Tianqiang took out a few things from his pocket.
Chen Wenzhe and Chen Xingchen were immediately attracted by the golden dragon-shaped ornament.
"Fuck, you kid can do it, it's this golden dragon!" Chen Xingchen directly exploded.
