..."My boss, isn't this really the 'Go-Jiang Divine Sword' that has been passed down through the ages?"
It’s no wonder that Uncle Zhong guessed like this. Almost everyone familiar with Ganjiang Moye Sword knows that both swords have an obvious feature in the legend.∮
Both swords have patterns on their blades. The Ganjiang sword is "made with tortoise patterns", while the Moye sword is "made with water ripples"! At this moment, the sword is exposed with patterns like tortoise shells!
"We don't know yet. We have to wait until all the patina on the sword is removed to know whether it is the Godly Sword of Generals!" As he said that, Liu Dong took the bronze sword from Uncle Zhong, raised the Frost Tiger Saber, and wanted to scrape it off again.
rust!
"Wait!" It would be fine if Uncle Zhong didn't see it. How could Uncle Zhong let Liu Dong treat it with such a rough method when facing a sword that was probably a go-getter.
If Liu Dong accidentally scratched the blade of the sword, the damage would be irreparable.
Therefore, Uncle Zhong, who was inherited by Mr. Li and was very concerned about the maintenance of antiques, naturally could not let Liu Dong be so reckless!
"Wait a minute!"
With that said, Uncle Zhong walked into the bedroom next to Liu Dong's puzzled eyes and came out after a while holding a thick glass bottle about twenty centimeters.
Before Liu Dong could ask what was in the bottle, Uncle Zhong had already put down the bottle, then quickly filled half a basin of water with his hands and feet, and then found some brushes and two white towels.
After all these preparations, Uncle Zhong picked up the glass bottle and unscrewed the cap. Liu Dong, who had keen senses, immediately smelled a strange smell, sour. Liu Dong was sure that he had never smelled it before.
Uncle Zhong poured the brown viscous liquid in the bottle into clean water. Then he stirred it evenly with his hands and then capped the bottle again.
"Give me the sword!"
Liu Dong did as he was told. He also wanted to see how Uncle Zhong removed the patina on the surface, and this method was somewhat different from what he had learned!
After taking the bronze sword from Liu Dong, Uncle Zhong started to pick up the brush, dipped it in the liquid that had completely turned brown in the basin, and brushed the surface of the bronze sword over and over again.
The movements were complicated, but there was no trace of impatience on Uncle Zhong's face. Liu Dong even found that Uncle Zhong was enjoying it a little bit.
"Uncle Zhong, how about I come?"
The old man was over sixty years old, and his body would definitely be tired after squatting for five minutes. So Liu Dong began to volunteer.
"No, just go and get that horse for me!"
Seeing the serious expression on the old man's face, Liu Dong nodded, took two steps, took a mazaar from the corner and asked Uncle Zhong to sit down. Then Liu Dong started watching from the side.
As time passed, and after three more liquid treatments and three water changes, the entire sword was finally cleaned up!
The sword's head is round and concave like the Wu Wang Fuchai sword. The length of the sword's hilt is nearly 15 centimeters, and it is engraved with leaf curling patterns. It not only increases the friction, but also makes the person holding the sword more comfortable.
The flat relief Taotie pattern was originally supposed to be inlaid with six gems on the upper and lower sides of the mouth. But now, after thousands of years of historical vicissitudes, there is nothing left except a single turquoise!
The widest point of the sword is about 8 centimeters and the length is 1.2 meters, which is quite long for a one-handed sword!
There is a sword spine in the center of the sword that runs through the entire sword body. This shape is definitely not inferior to the three-edged saber in terms of lethality. And the blade is still shining coldly after more than two thousand years, which is enough to show that this is a sword that can still be used.
See the magical weapon of the blood feudal lord.
In addition, the sword is covered with hexagon-like tortoiseshell patterns. This unique pattern of ancient refined steel makes this bronze sword even more extraordinary.
Of course, the most important thing is the two wrong golden bird seals on the sword. Both Liu Dong and Uncle Zhong understand the meaning of these two words-'go-getters'!
"Is this really the Divine Sword of Generals? I never thought that I, Shen Zhong, would be so blessed to be able to witness the birth of this eternal sword with my own hands. This life is really worth it. God has been so kind to me. !!”
Seeing the old man holding the Ganjiang Sword in his hand, his eyebrows and beard all crowded together in excitement, and his whole body shaking violently, Liu Donghai was really afraid that the old man would have another heart attack due to the sudden increase in blood pressure.
However, as an antique collector, Liu Dong understands how rare it is to witness the birth of a national treasure-level cultural relic, and it is also the Qianjiang Shenjian passed down through the ages, so Liu Dong did not step forward to disturb him at this moment.
"Perhaps there really is some divine will. When I found 'Moye', the Ganjiang Divine Sword also came into my hands by chance. Now these male and female swords, which have been passed down through the ages, are finally together again!" Liu Dongxin said.
"Master, give it to you!" About half an hour later, Uncle Zhong carefully handed the sword to Liu Dong.
"Uncle Zhong, don't worry, why don't you take a look again!" Seeing the old man's excitement just now, Liu Dong originally thought that Uncle Zhong would appreciate it for a few hours!
"No, I am very satisfied to be able to see the birth of Ganjiang Shenjian today. I just hope that my boss will allow me to see it once or twice a year in the future!"
"Haha, this is no problem!"
"By the way, Uncle Zhong! I just saw that your potion was quite effective in removing rust. Can you lend me some?" Liu Dong asked curiously.
This was the first time he encountered such a good rust removal potion.
In just one hour, I couldn't help but remove all the rust on the sword without damaging the sword body at all. What's even more rare is that under the light of Liu Dong's relics, this potion removed the rust on the entire surface of the sword. A protective film is formed! Although I don’t know how long this protective film can last, its existence can greatly protect the sword body from tissue oxidation.
"This is simple. The preparation of this potion is not complicated. I will tell the owner the recipe and you can prepare it yourself when you go back!"
"How embarrassing!" Liu Dong knew how valuable this almost unique skill was, but Uncle Zhong told him the formula of the potion without any hesitation, and Liu Dong was very grateful.
When Uncle Zhong rejected Liu Dong's offer to buy it out, Liu Dong had no choice but to wait until the end of the year to make up for it with dividends and bonuses!
"By the way, Uncle Zhong, how is the business in the store during this period?" After taking a brocade box from the nearby warehouse, wrapping the Ganjiang Excalibur and putting it in, Liu Dong took Uncle Zhong and sat on the armchair in the living room. Come down.
"Not bad. In the first quarter of this year, our Chenxiang Pavilion's turnover exceeded 8 million yuan, with a profit of about 4.5 million yuan!"
"So good?" Liu Dong said in surprise.
You must know that last year, Chenxiang Pavilion's best quarterly profit was only 3.5 million. Now it has increased by more than a quarter. No wonder Liu Dong was surprised!
"Yes, speaking of which, thanks to the paintings sent by my boss, from the end of the New Year to now, nearly 20 of those paintings have been sold, with the average price of each painting being more than 20,000!"
After listening to Uncle Zhong's words, Liu Dong was really surprised.
As the initiator, Liu Dong knew very well what those paintings meant.
Since signing Wang Hongqi to his company in his hometown last time, Liu Dong has also purchased more than a hundred oil paintings and a large number of sketches from the other party!
Because he didn't have a gallery in hand, Liu Dong took out some of these paintings after returning to Quancheng, and then added some of his usual landscape, figure, flower and bird paintings, and some oil paintings. Together, there were about fifty or sixty paintings.
, all placed on the third floor of Chenxiang Pavilion for sale.
Originally, because he and Wang Hongqi were not well-known, they would definitely not be able to sell at a high price, but Liu Dong didn't want his hard work to go to waste, so he set a price of 5,000 per square foot for the two of them. Nowadays, the price for famous young painters in China is the same!
Moreover, in the absence of gallery packaging and promotion, Liu Dong originally thought that if he set such a high price, he would not be able to sell a single painting, but now he thought that 20 paintings had been sold in less than two months. This result was somewhat disappointing.
He was a little unbelievable!
"Come on, let's go over and have a look!" Liu Dong couldn't sit still at this moment. He was also curious about whether his painting had been sold or not!
Soon, Liu Dong walked ahead holding the brocade box, and arrived at the third floor with Uncle Zhong.
The third floor, now about 130 square meters, is completely different from the previous warehouse.
Four partitions were simply built with plywood in the middle of the third floor. Of course, these partitions are some distance from the walls on both sides, and the shapes and lengths of these partitions also change to a certain extent. It can be seen that the entire space must have been specially designed.
the design of!
"It's very good, it has a bit of a gallery feel!" Liu Dong walked around the third floor, looked around and praised it.
"Haha, Xiangzi asked someone to do it. An old man like me doesn't understand this!"
After nodding, Liu Dong went to look at the carefully framed painting hanging on the wall! Then he took the sales data from Uncle Zhong's hand and found that 9 paintings had been sold based on Wang Hongqi's words.
Basically, each painting is around 20,000 to 40,000. Liu Dong’s paintings sold 11 paintings, and the price is about the same as Wang Hongqi’s!
"Very good! Uncle Zhong, I will send some more paintings over tomorrow, but now that we are on the right track in this regard, you might as well learn more about the current calligraphy and painting circles in our province and see if there is anything worth cultivating.
We are a young painter, please sign it together when the time comes!"
"What my boss said is that during this period, I also found two pretty good candidates, but I would like the young master to take a look at them!"
"Oh, really?" Upon hearing this, Liu Dong became interested!
"Master, please come with me!"
