- Zhou Xia has always felt that temperament is particularly difficult to cultivate, especially for people like Liu Yuqing who grew up in a rich cultural atmosphere. He especially likes to see her when she is concentrating and devoting herself wholeheartedly to one thing. What he usually sees most is when she is concentrating on appraising antiques and cultural relics, or when she is dealing with people with a cheerful face, or, like now, she is acting with incomparable elegance. Making tea in a demure manner.
There is no doubt that Liu Yuqing is very beautiful, but on the streets of Donghai, Zhou Xia has seen many women who can rival her in appearance. But there was only Liu Yuqing, who made him have the urge to hold her in his arms and take care of her carefully, but he was worried that he was too humble and might offend the beauty, so he could only watch from a distance in order to gain peace of mind.
On the surface, Zhou Xia was quite steady and polite. While admiring her artistic movements, he did not forget to thank her softly for the tea she handed him.
"You don't have to be so polite. After you've seen these steps for making tea a few times, you'll understand." Liu Yuqing said with a slight smile.
She also asked Zhou Xia to taste it carefully, "I used to love coming to Grandpa Zhao's house to drink tea. Although it is not the best, it is pure and natural and has a natural taste. I like it very much."
Zhou Xia has little research on tea ceremony and no experience in how to taste it, but he has a strong ability to accept new things. At the very least, it will not be a problem to learn from Liu Yuqing.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The light tea aroma is imprinted directly into your heart. After tasting it carefully, there was a slight bitterness, but then, this bitterness was replaced by the fragrance of tea. With this contrast, the fragrance of tea became even more precious.
When Zhao Xiangbo appeared in the hall holding a simple study box, Zhou Xia quickly put down the tea cup and said to him with a smile, "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for the good tea."
Zhao Xiangbo responded with a smile, "You should thank the little girl from the Liu family! She doesn't know how many teas she has caused me, and she has almost reached the peak of her tea ceremony."
Liu Yuqing chuckled, "I must thank Grandpa Zhao for his generosity. Not only did he give up the tea, but he also brought out so many treasures."
When mentioning these treasures, Zhao Xiangbo's expression suddenly turned cloudy, "Little girl from the Liu family, you can stay here and admire them if you want. But we have to make an agreement three chapters in advance. You are only allowed to read and not talk about them."
Liu Yuqing said quickly, "Grandpa Zhao, this is not good! Zhou Xia has just entered the industry and cannot withstand your test like this."
Zhao Xiangbo laughed and said, "I can't tell, but you still care about him! Don't worry, I'm only looking at your face to help him grow up quickly. Xiao Zhou, what do you think?"
"I believe that Mr. Zhao will not treat me badly. I came here with full sincerity. If I make people feel cold, there will be no next time." Zhou Xia nodded in agreement, but he took advantage of his words first. , Anyway, if he suffers a loss, it will be on Zhao Xiangbo.
Zhao Xiangbo laughed even louder, "If you are close to red, you will be red, if you are close to ink, you will be black. This boy must have been with the little girl from the Liu family for a long time, and he is also the same cunning and scoundrel."
Zhou Xia said seriously, "Manager Liu has always been a role model for me to learn from."
Zhao Xiangbo smiled even more happily, "You two are a perfect match! Okay, little girl from the Liu family, Xiao Zhou has agreed, so I won't bother you to worry about it, just enjoy it with peace of mind."
Although Liu Yuqing was a little worried in her heart, she still had no choice but to nod and agree. Zhao Xiangbo had protected the study box tightly, and it was obvious that he would not open the box if she didn't agree.
Zhao Xiangbo also felt at ease. Liu Yuqing¡¯s appraisal skills are now clear to him. With the help of many antique collectors around her, she has long been able to take charge of her own business. But I am afraid that the experience gained from him is much greater than that of Zhou Xia. It is not easy to completely deceive her with his collection.
" But Zhou Xia is different. She can't embarrass her. If even her subordinate Zhou Xia can't handle it, Zhao Xiangbo feels that this world should really be dominated by young people.
Before he opened the study box, Zhou Xia's eyes had been falling on this simple yet elegant study box.
He has pretty good eyesight now, and even from a distance, he can see that this study box is quite valuable. Because the material it uses is authentic huanghuali.
When Zhou Xia was in college, she didn¡¯t know much about huanghuali. But after she started working, she saw many stationery items carved from huanghuali in the auction company. He spent some time and energy to study the performance and identification methods of huanghuali and various mahogany trees. The mahogany and Ming and Qing furniture industries are vast and profound. If you really want to study it, half your life may not be enough. But Zhou Xia doesn¡¯t need to study itSo deep, he couldn't guarantee anything else, but he had a good memory, very rich theoretical knowledge, and had seen a lot of real objects, such as the huanghuali study box with a relatively open door in Zhao Xiangbo's hand. After only taking a few glances, I immediately recognized that this huanghuali was of quite good quality.
In today¡¯s market, all kinds of mahogany furniture and collections made of mahogany are very expensive. Naturally, huanghuali has also followed the rising tide, and once created the myth of sky-high prices. Now the market is slowly returning to rationality and the bubble has been squeezed out. Sky-high prices are rare, but the price of truly valuable mahogany utensils is still strong.
Not to mention anything else, the price of the huanghuali in this study box alone is extraordinary, at least starting at 100,000 yuan.
Not to mention, this study box also has its artistic and historical aspects. As a result, the price will only be higher.
Zhou Xia looked at the shape and style of this study box. It didn¡¯t look like the style of the Ming Dynasty, but more like the middle and late Qing Dynasty.
Because this huanghuali study box is made of Baobao inlay, which appeared in the Ming Dynasty and flourished in the Qing Dynasty. The style has also developed from the original simple and natural to complex, extremely luxurious and gorgeous.
The so-called treasure inlay refers to the selective inlaying of a variety of processed precious materials on the same object, so as to achieve the purpose of highlighting the composition theme and strengthening the decorative effect. Moreover, the treasure inlaid can emit different brilliance according to different angles of light exposure, which is a rare artistic treasure.
The cover of this study box is inlaid with hundreds of treasures, depicting a picture of a pine and crane, inlaid with various precious materials such as jasper, lapis lazuli, mother-of-pearl, and colored stones.
There are towering ancient pines, lush green grass, clear bamboos and chrysanthemums, and numerous cranes flying in the air. The whole body of the crane is engraved with white pearlescent shells with regular feather patterns, and the red crown of the crane is inlaid with vermilion coral beads, making it lifelike. The white-feathered longevity crane is graceful and graceful, dancing in the spring breeze and looking forward to its appearance.
There are square leaves and rackets on the front of the box, and copper lifting rings on both sides.
In addition, Zhou Xia¡¯s keen eyes also discovered that the patina on the surface of the study box was thin and pure. Apparently, Mr. Zhao Xiangbo often played with it. As for any antique collection, after you buy it for collection, you don't just put it away and ignore it. You have to know how to take care of it. Zhao Xiangbo is a person who really knows how to collect. He really put a lot of effort into collecting and preserving this study box. Otherwise, Zhou Xia would not be able to see the perfect layer of patina on its surface.
Before Zhao Xiangbo opened the study box and took out the collection of literary toys inside, Zhou Xia did not get started with it personally, and did not even have time to take a closer look and make the most delicate observation. Unconsciously, I made the most preliminary judgment on this study box.
According to Zhou Xia¡¯s estimation, Zhao Xiangbo¡¯s study box is worth no less than 300,000 yuan.
"He is indeed a well-established collector in the East China Sea!" Zhou Xia sighed in his heart, "This trip is worth it!"
Zhou Xia also understood why Liu Yuqing would rather put down her work and follow along. Taking out a few collections from Zhao Xiangbo can be regarded as small boutiques. If they are put at the auction, they will definitely attract people to rush for them.
¡° In this way, he also had more expectations for the treasure that Zhao Xiangbo was about to take out from the study box.
But then, he changed his mind again and felt that this study box should be the most valuable treasure.
Because Zhou Xia himself knows best the value of the jade paperweight he brought. The going price is about 25,000 yuan. Zhao Xiangbo is not a fool. Since he agreed to exchange a collection of comparable value with him, it is unlikely that he will come up with anything particularly valuable. In addition, he also had to be on guard against Liu Yuqing, fearing that she would put his treasures up for auction. The value of the items in the study box would at best be equal to that of a jade paperweight.
This study box is the one that deserves the most attention!
Zhou Xia secretly said to herself, why not take a look at the age of this study box?
Judging from Zhou Xia's armchair experience, this treasure inlay should be in the style of the Qing Dynasty, because he felt that this lifelike picture of pine and crane used so many types of gems, such as jasper, lapis lazuli, colored stones, etc., and he The few Qing Dynasty treasure inlays I have seen are relatively similar.
And because he had never seen the Ming Dynasty Baobao inlays, he couldn't make a comparison.
In order to prove his judgment, Zhou Xia also asked the system to help identify the age of this huanghuali study box.
"This object was created in 1638 AD!"
The system quickly made an identification, which was very different from Zhou Xia's judgment. In 1638 AD, it was still the Ming Dynasty, but it was the late Ming Dynasty.
But Zhou Xia felt relieved when she thought about it. During the late Ming Dynasty, although the north was corrupt, the land south of the Yangtze River was still prosperous with singing and dancing. The rich scholar-bureaucrats and literati were extremely luxurious. In terms of utensils,?The pursuit of ultimate luxury.
When Zhou Xia was a little dazed, Zhao Xiangbo also opened the study box and said to him with a smile, "Xiao Zhou, first take a look at the collections here. If any of them suits your needs, I will exchange them for you." How about the jade paperweight?¡±
Zhou Xia just came back to her senses, and she was still thinking about Zhao Xiangbo's study box! He asked in a confused manner, "Mr. Zhao, are you talking about all the collections on this table?"
Zhao Xiangbo did not doubt his presence and said with a smile, "Of course!"
Zhou Xia asked, "Mr. Zhao, do you really mean what you say?"
Seeing him questioning himself, Zhao Xiangbo did not feel angry, but looked at him strangely. Seeing nothing unusual, he turned to Liu Yuqing and said, "Ask the little girl from the Liu family, why do I mean what I say?"
"Just make sure Mr. Zhao won't regret it!" Zhou Xia asked repeatedly, as if he was afraid that he would regret it.
"His behavior made Zhao Xiangbo a little suspicious. But he saw that Zhou Xia didn't look at the collection carefully at all. He was so sure that there was something good in it? To know,
Even Zhao Xiangbo himself had no choice but to determine the true condition of each collection in less than twenty seconds after opening the study box.
"He must be defrauding me!" Zhao Xiangbo quickly came to the conclusion, "This guy is very cunning!"
In this way, Zhao Xiangbo reconfirmed that Zhou Xia can choose any collection on the table. He no longer believed in this evil. Could this kid still pick something out of his own hands?
Liu Yuqing, who had been watching from the side, also felt that Zhou Xia¡¯s behavior was quite strange!
Similarly, she also suspected that Zhou Xia was bluffing Zhao Xiangbo and wanted to find out more information from his expression. She didn't believe that Zhou Xia could confirm that there were leaks in the collection in the study box in such a short period of time. He was not a god.
"I think this huanghuali study box is quite good!"
Zhou Xia¡¯s words were like thunder on the ground, almost frightening Zhao Xiangbo and Liu Yuqing half to death.
Zhao Xiangbo¡¯s originally complacent expression suddenly collapsed.
I have been hunting geese all year round, and now I am blinded by the geese pecking me. This is really unpleasant.
