Chapter 1076 An Upscale "Gift"

"Here." As he spoke, Jiang Chen took out a box made of huanghuali, and put a closed huanghuali chessboard on the coffee table.Open the huanghuali box, and place two white chess jars on the yellow silk satin.Inside the chess jar, there are black and white chess pieces.When Jiang Keming saw this scene, he couldn't wait to play with it. His mother, Wei Lingling, and even Jiang Xin, who was still angry, looked at the things in Jiang Keming's hands curiously.

Jiang Chen saw his excited father, and introduced with a smile: "According to the shopkeeper, this is something from the Qianlong period. Both the chessboard and the box are made of huanghuali wood. This chessboard is made of two pieces of wood on the same tree." The two chess jars are made of Jingde blue-and-white porcelain. Although there are not many blue-and-white decorations on them, and there are only sporadic embellishments, they look much more elegant. I believe you I will like it. As for this chess piece, according to the shopkeeper, there are a total of 360 pieces of black and white chess pieces, all of which are carefully ground with Hetian jade. Among them, all the white chess pieces are made of Hetian seed material, while the black ones are made of Hetian jade. They are all made of Hetian moyu. But I don’t know much about this moyu, so I don’t know if it’s real or not. I just saw that the workmanship is relatively fine, so I bought it after seeing it.”

"Hehe, it's a good buy. This is a good thing." Jiang Keming played with the chess pieces in his hand and said, "This set of chess sets is exquisite in workmanship, and it really came out of the palace. Although this Hetian black jade is not as famous as suet white jade , but it is also a rare good product, and being able to use so much black jade to make chess pieces shows the degree of labor and material consumption at that time, this thing can only be found in the palace, and the folks cannot make it."

As he spoke, Jiang Keming picked out three chess pieces from the two chessboards and said, "These three chess pieces should have been made in the 30s and [-]s. Although they were made according to the raw materials, the patina was a bit poor. But it's harmless, this set It’s a good thing, it can be passed down as our family heirloom.”

"Hehe, it's good if it's true." Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words.

And Lei Dan who heard this also smiled and said: "This child, what are you doing with the money, this set of things cost a lot of money."

"Hehe, not much, maybe seven or eight thousand." Jiang Chen explained with a smile.In fact, this set of things is more than seven or eight thousand, and Jiang Chen did not want to make his parents feel distressed by saying this.For this set of items, Jiang Chen talked with them for a long time, and finally won it at a price of 200.To be honest, [-] yuan is a lot of money in this era, and it may be equivalent to more than [-] million yuan in later generations.But if it is true, it is really not a loss. This thing has a relatively large room for appreciation. It may be ten or ten years later. If this thing does not have tens of millions, it is impossible to get it.

The entire 80s can be said to be a small peak in the domestic collection industry, and it is also the peak period of prosperity in the entire Panjiayuan Dashilan, and even the popularity of national collections appeared.But compared to later generations, that's far behind.Of course, because the Wenwan market has just emerged at this time, the management is relatively chaotic, which makes it a mixed bag.But the latter has an advantage, that is, there are more real things and fewer fake ones.One is that this kind of commercialization is too comprehensive at this time, and people do not realize it. The other is that the technical level is not as advanced and mature as later generations.Therefore, a lot of good things emerged during this period. Some family heirlooms survived the catastrophe and reappeared, and some were rediscovered after sleeping in the soil for hundreds or thousands of years.

Of course, Jiang Chen doesn't always like these cultural games themselves or the culture they contain, a considerable part of it is because of their commercial value.After all, in later generations, he was also influenced by those Wenwan who cost millions or hundreds of millions.I was also brainwashed by that messy favorite show that was popular for a while.So when he came here, he found that there were many good things, so Jiang Chen tried to collect them.And after his inadvertent attention over the past few years, more and more things came into his hands, including some high-quality goods, or orphans.Of course, it is mainly porcelain, calligraphy and painting, jade and so on. Jiang Chen doesn't touch this bronze ware very much.At most, they can store a few weapons, bronze mirrors, big ones, the sensitive Jiang Chen won't touch them.Because of his identity, if he is exposed or deliberately looking for trouble, such things will be very troublesome.Even so, if his current collection is estimated according to the value of later generations, it is a very huge number.But this time, because the place where the previous negotiations were held was relatively close to the Dashilan Liulichang Panjiayuan, Jiang Chen would pick up and play around during the break time. These things were also obtained at that time.

"Seven or eight thousand, it's not expensive, it's really a waste of money." Lei Dan complained.

"It's okay, Mom, isn't it just spending money to make money." Jiang Chen took out a few small brocade boxes from the luggage area with a smile and said, "Here are a few pairs of bracelets I picked up, I don't know how to buy your things , you just accept it."

"It must have cost a lot of money." Lei Dan chattered, looking at the pairs of bracelets that Jiang Chen took out.There are five or six, right? Suet white jade, jadeite, and gold and silverware. Anyway, when Jiang Chen encountered them, they looked similar, and he bought them all at an acceptable price.Sure enough, when the woman saw this thing, her eyes were attracted.Even Jiang's mother, Lei Dan, who was still complaining just now, stopped talking at the moment, and started playing with Wei Lingling to try it on.As for Jiang Xin, who was still sulking next to her, she had already put Jiang Chen's affairs aside at this moment, gathered around these things, and stared straight at them.

And the mother who was playing with the bracelet quietly gave Jiang Chen a look. Jiang Chen smiled when he saw this, and then said to the others: "There are more here, these are Suzhou and Hangzhou scarves, and silk , It’s going to be summer soon, you can make some clothes. There are also some snacks, which are said to be time-honored, and they were dedicated to the Empress Dowager.”

"This kid, what are you doing with all this money?" Although Lei Dan was nagging, there was a smile on his face.Pick up silk scarves and silks from time to time and compare them with several people to see who is suitable for which flower pattern and color and so on.

As for Jiang Chen, seeing his sister's happy smile, he leaned in to please her and said, "Aren't you angry?"

"Hmph!" Jiang Xin gave Jiang Chen a supercilious look, and continued to play with the bracelet in her hand, but her tone was much better than before.

Jiang Chen saw Youmen, and continued: "Okay, don't be angry, brother is really wrong, don't dare next time."

"There's another time!" Jiang Xin glared at Jiang Chen and said.

"Okay, okay, there will be no next time, no next time." Jiang Chen waved quickly.

"Well, well, it depends on your performance." Seeing Jiang Chen begging for mercy, Jiang Xin said with a smile.

"Ghost girl!" Seeing this scene, Lei Dan poked Jiang Xin on the forehead, and then pulled Jiang Xin and Wei Lingling to continue working.

As for Jiang Chen, seeing this scene, he sat down on the sofa next to him, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and let out a long sigh of relief.But he didn't want to, the two boys stood in front of him with an angry face, stretched out their hands, stared at their big watery eyes and said, "Father, where is our present?"
