Chapter 57 Songhua Inkstone

 The scroll was too long and Lu Fei's backpack couldn't fit in it, so he had to let Chen Xiang hold it carefully.

Chen Xiang knew that Lu Fei had found a treasure again, and his beautiful face couldn't help but smile.

The two of them entered Wenbaozhai. Gao Henian was not there, and Zhao Qingfeng played chess with an old man in his sixties and drank tea.

Lu Fei also recognized this old man as Xu Jianye, the archaeological consultant of the Bianliang Museum.

Seeing Lu Fei come in, the two old men quickly stopped to greet Lu Fei.

Xu Jianye didn't know Lu Fei very well, but Zhao Qingfeng was very familiar with this guy.

After just two contacts, Zhao Qingfeng was greatly shocked by Lu Fei's vision and courage.

After asking the boy to serve tea to Lu Fei and Chen Xiang, Zhao Qingfeng walked to the door with a stern look and was about to pull down the rolling shutter door.

Zhao Qingfeng has his own plans. Lu Fei will definitely get something when he comes here. The items in this kid's hands are all real treasures... .??.

Yesterday, a bunch of old guys started making noises, and in the end, I and my brother-in-law only got the young marshal's grasshopper cage. Today, in order to prevent the tragedy from happening again, it would be safer to close the door and beat the dogs.

However, Zhao Qingfeng wanted to close the business, but it was too late.

The story of Lu Fei playing tricks on the rich second generation in the retail area has long been spread in the antique city, and the old guys in those stores have already sent people to pay attention to Lu Fei's every move.

As soon as Lu Fei entered Wenbaozhai, these old guys were like flies seeing rotten eggs, they all swarmed in after smelling the smell.

Suddenly the hall of Wenbaozhai was crowded with old men, and the lineup was even worse than yesterday.

Zhao Qingfeng's old face was wrinkled into a chrysanthemum. He gave these old guys angry looks one by one and sent a WeChat message to his brother-in-law Gao Hainian.

The veterans didn't care about Zhao Qingfeng's eyes. After greeting Xu Jianye, they all surrounded Lu Fei.

"Hey, Xiao Fei, what good things have you brought today? Come and take them out for the grandpas to use."

"Hey, Xiaofei, your medicinal wine is too overbearing. Get me a few more bottles later."

"Talk, tsk, tsk, you're such a weird looking woman!"<

.

Lu Fei was also speechless. When these old guys saw him, they were like mice seeing Tang Monk. Their eyes were full of desire.

Lu Fei made a circle of smoke and explained.

"You all have misunderstood. I am not shopping today."

"I want to borrow an inkstone from Shopkeeper Zhao's guy."

"Inkstone?"

"What inkstone?"

"Stop talking nonsense and come up with it for us."

Lu Fei was also speechless, so he had to put the square inkstone on the counter. Then the old guys let Lu Fei go and went to look at the inkstone together.

Chen Xiang said with a smile.

"You are very popular."

Lu Fei shrugged helplessly.

"What's so famous about Fang Inkstone?" Chen Xiang asked curiously.

"Well, the ink stains on it are too thick, and there's also sludge. We won't know until we deal with them."

"But don't worry, you can definitely give it as a birthday gift."

"Thank you Lu Fei."

"You are welcome."

The two of them were chatting outside, but a bunch of old guys inside were in trouble.

This square inkstone is sixteen centimeters long, seven centimeters wide, and about three centimeters thick.

The whole thing was covered in black stains and sludge. If it weren't for the clearly visible outlines of the inkstone, the inkstone hill and the inkstone surface, this thing would be no different from the bricks that have been stored in the kitchen for many years.

The old guys' eyes were so wide that they couldn't figure out the reason.

Finally, Xu Jianye picked up the inkstone with gloves and looked at it repeatedly, and saw some clues in the details at the bottom of the inkstone.

There is a grain of rice at the bottom

In such a large and small place, you can vaguely see a hint of green on the inkstone itself.

Picking up a magnifying glass and looking at it carefully, Xu Jianye finally came to the conclusion that this thing might be a Songhua inkstone.

Lu Fei clapped his hands and said with appreciation.

"Mr. Xu is worthy of being an archaeological consultant. He really has a good eye. This is indeed a Songhua Inkstone."

The material of Songhua Inkstone is Songhua Stone from Changbai Mountain, hence its name.

The use of pine flower stone to make inkstones began in the late Ming Dynasty and was highly praised in the Qing Dynasty.

Songhua inkstone was deeply loved by emperors for its characteristics of being as warm as jade, flawless green, firm and fine in texture, tender and pure in color, slippery and not repellent to ink, astringent and not sluggish in writing, and able to make pine smoke float and make every detail shine.

Emperor Kangxi admired the Songhua Inkstone very much and named it the "Imperial Inkstone". It has been exclusively used by the court. He also praised the Songhua Inkstone: "It has a long life, smooth texture, green color and clear sound, and the ink is overflowing, so it is a treasure."

During the Ming and Qing dynasties, Songhua inkstone was one of the four famous inkstones in China along with Tao inkstone, Duan inkstone and She inkstone.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the Republic of China, fake Songhua inkstones were rampant, and people replaced the Songhua inkstone with Chengni inkstones from Zhongzhou.

It is undeniable that the value of genuine Songhua inkstones is definitely not lower than that of the four famous inkstones.

In 2001, a Songhua inkstone used by Nian Gengyao was sold at the Magic City Auction House for a sky-high price of 23 million.

These old guys are all bugs in the antique world. When they heard the name of Songhua Inkstone, they all became as excited as if they had been given a shot of blood.

"Bao Bao Fei, why the hell are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and clean up the ink stone?"

"What a sin. You made the inkstone like this. Isn't this a waste of natural resources?"

"You're such a bastard, you should hurry up!"

.

Lu Fei chuckled, found a porcelain basin in the store, put the inkstone in, poured two bottles of white wine, plus half a bottle of detergent, and then went in
Da Ma Jin Dao sat down at the counter and drank tea leisurely.

This made the old guys very anxious, and a few grumpy ones squatted down and planned to clean it up themselves.

Lu Fei knocked on the coffee table and said loudly.

"If anyone damages it, he will pay for it according to the price."

"Pooh!"

"day!"

"It's a broken thing, no one will touch it."

"snort!"

The old guys were all pouting and staring at Lu Fei, but no one wanted to leave.

Ten minutes later, Gao Henian also rushed over in a hurry. When he entered the door, he made a noise with the old guys and drove them away. Unfortunately, no one bought his account at all.

Half an hour later, with the good guys looking forward to it, Lu Fei stood up, slowly squatted beside the porcelain basin, picked up a small brush, and started cleaning slowly.

Seeing those gentle and delicate movements, the old guys went berserk and wanted to swarm Lu Fei.

As Lu Fei cleaned, the true nature of Songhua Inkstone gradually emerged.

When everyone saw the thick and moist emerald green, they cheered collectively.

"Holy shit, it's emerald green!"

"It turns out to be the best emerald green among Songhua inkstones!"

"Baby, big baby!"

Songhua inkstone has a fine texture, fine particles, and a small particle size. It feels cool to the touch and slightly slippery when touched.

But what really makes the Songhua Inkstone famous is its rich and colorful colors.

Top-grade Songhua inkstones are mainly green, divided into seven green levels: emerald green, apple green, poplar green, spinach green, cyan-grey green, light gray-green, and dark gray-green.

Among them, emerald green, apple green and boxwood green are recognized as the best among pine flower inkstones.

Songhua inkstones of these three colors are hard to find no matter in any era, and Lu Fei's square inkstone is the best emerald green among the best.
