Chapter 75

While Li Zhuo was still thinking about this arm rest, Zheng Heng sent another voice:
"Brother, can you take a video with me? I'll watch things from the video."

Li Zhuo also sent a voice reply:
"Convenient, anytime."

After receiving the voice, Zheng Heng quickly sent a video call, and Li Zhuo agreed.

First, we greeted each other face to face——

"Hello Brother Zheng, I have to trouble you every time. When I get to Shanghai, I must treat you to dinner."

Zheng Heng shook his head and said:

"It's nothing troublesome. It's related to my business. I've made money after selling the things I bought from you. As for eating, if you come to Shanghai, I must be the one who invites you."

……

The two briefly exchanged a few words, and then Zheng Heng said:
"Put that arm under the camera, buddy, so I can see it."

Li Zhuo rested his arm on the table, then pointed the phone camera at it.

Zheng Heng looked at it carefully, and asked Li Zhuo to turn it over to see its back and sides.

Four or five minutes later, Zheng Heng said:

"The inscription is still a little unclear, but I just looked carefully at the style and characteristics of the carving, and I probably have a judgment. You can go to the balcony, where there is plenty of natural light, and you can see it more clearly."

Li Zhuo took it to the balcony, and Zheng Heng carefully identified it again, and finally said:
"I can roughly see that the first character of the inscription is the word "Shi". I think it should be the work of Feng Shiyizhi, a famous bamboo carving family, and it may be the work of Feng Shihao."

Li Zhuo:? ? ? ?

So, who is Feng Shihao?
He touched his nose and wanted to ask Du Niang, but it was inconvenient to use his mobile phone now.

Fortunately, Zheng Heng went on to say:

"Bamboo carving skills developed greatly during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. At that time, there was a Feng family in Jiading, which passed down for a long time, and almost every generation produced outstanding bamboo carvers.

During the reign of Emperor Kangxi, there appeared three Feng brothers, Feng Xijue, Feng Xilu, and Feng Xizhang, who were famous for their superb carving skills at that time. "

"Among them, the youngest son of the second child, Feng Xilu, is Feng Shihao, who was also famous for a while."

"Based on Feng Shihao's reputation, this small bamboo carving must be very valuable, and it should be able to sell for a relatively high price."

Li Zhuo asked:

"Brother Zheng, are you sure?"

Zheng Heng scratched his bald head and explained with some embarrassment:
"Brother, it's like this. I know a little about armrests, but I can't claim to be an expert. You'd better find someone to ask. If you're sure, you can ask me to do it..."

Obviously he was a little unsure, and he didn't even say how much the estimated price was.

……

After hanging up the video, Li Zhuo then sent a WeChat message to Teacher Jin Zixu.

After waiting for a while, Teacher Jin replied with a message:
"It turned out to be an armrest. This is a good thing. In this way, you come to find me and meet me at the teahouse we met before."

Obviously, Teacher Jin is quite interested in the arm rest.

Li Zhuo replied:
"Okay, I'm leaving now."

He got up and put the armrests into his backpack, then went downstairs and took a car to Yuhang Cangqian Street.

When Li Zhuo arrived at the teahouse, Teacher Jin Zixu was already sitting inside.

He was a little impatient, and he had to look at the items without saying a word.

Li Zhuo gave him the armrest and said:
"I found someone to read it, and they said it might be Feng Shihao's work."

Teacher Jin gave a "huh" while watching.

He only took a few glances, and after a little identification of the inscription that had been worn out, he said with certainty:

"I don't know which expert you are looking for. I have enough respect for him, but I have a different opinion. This thing is a treasure. It does come from Jiading Feng's family, but it was not created by the third son Feng Shihao. It is the work of his elder brother Feng Shibin."

This……

Another person who has never heard of it.

Li Zhuo didn't hesitate anymore, and asked directly:

"Mr. Jin, tell me."

"Simply put, Feng's bamboo carving skills in Jiading were outstanding during the Qing Dynasty. At that time, critics believed that "Fengqi" refers to their carvings being unexpected and novel."

"Feng Shibin and Feng Shihao's generation is characterized by their superb carving skills, but compared to their parents, they are more conservative than innovative. In other words, they are still a bit behind their parents."

Li Zhuo nodded to express his understanding.

"Then how to distinguish the works of Feng Shibin and Feng Shihao?" Li Zhuo thinks this is the key.

Teacher Kim explained:
"One of the key points that distinguishes them is that Feng Shihao is better at carving figures, but he is a bit dull and old-fashioned in carving landscapes.

Feng Shibin, on the other hand, is good at the multi-layered deep-knife relief carving method, which incorporates some intaglio techniques.

This arm rest of yours is obviously carved with a deep knife relief, and it has a lot of tension..."

Although Li Zhuo didn't know how to do it, he could tell that Teacher Jin's level was obviously higher, and his evaluation of everyone was based on the level of skills.

He also more or less admitted that this thing was Feng Shibin's work.

At this moment, Li Zhuo asked the most concerned question——

"Mr. Jin, how much is this work worth?"

Jin Zixu laughed and said:
"This is Feng Shibin's work. His reputation is lower than that of his younger brother Feng Shihao. Although the two have their own strengths in terms of skills, there is still a gap in price."

"But it's very delicate, definitely a high-quality product, and the price should be around 30 yuan," Teacher Jin said succinctly, "If it belongs to Feng Shihao, it can go up to more than [-] yuan."

Li Zhuo's heart was bleeding when he heard that.

One word short, and 10,000+ were found.

Is there any reason? !
Jin Zixu couldn't put it down for this armrest, and then said:

"The normal price of this armrest is 30, but if you meet someone you like, the price can go up. For example, if I buy it for collection, I can offer it for 35."

Li Zhuo did not comment immediately.

He thought it would be better to find someone else to take a look.

In the afternoon, Li Zhuo drove to the Art Appraisal and Evaluation Center on Gushan Road, West Lake District. After seeing it, the experts came to the same conclusion as what Jin Zixu said.

At night, Li Zhuo came to the teahouse again and sold the arm rest to Jin Zixu.

Successfully accounted for 35 yuan.

……

After seeing off Teacher Jin, Li Zhuo did not leave the teahouse, but sat and waited for the reminder message to arrive.

Soon, a piece of information was captured in his sea of ​​consciousness——

"The host has fulfilled the wish of the old cherry tree in Majian Town, Lanxi City, and received a wealth return of 35 yuan. This incense burner is evaluated according to the fulfillment of the host's wish. The evaluation is in progress... and it has been completed.

The total score is 10 points, the host's action score is 8 points, and the comment is 'easy and freehand', please make persistent efforts to the host. "

"In order to give back and motivate the host, this incense burner will activate the cashback function of the wealth multiplier. This time the host has obtained an income of 35 yuan. According to the current level 8 of this incense burner and the comment score of the fulfillment of this wish, the return of this multiplier is 8*8*0.1=6.4 times, that is 224 million yuan.”

"Because the cash back is more than 200 million, this incense burner will cash back in the form of stock sale settlement. Please sell the purchased stocks tomorrow. The incense burner has the ability to shield the secrets, and the funds remitted this time Compliant and legal.”

"The settlement is completed. The Wishing Censer has absorbed the wish power of the cherry tree, and its strength has improved, and its level has been upgraded to level 9."

"After the cashback ends, the host will be able to use this item again."
