00332 Bronzeware

The new year is coming soon, I wish the brothers a happy new year of the horse and happiness soon!

-----------------------------------------

Wang Ding looked at the sapphire cong in his hand, which was only seven or eight centimeters in size. Although it was small in size, it was definitely a heavy weapon for Wang Ding.

It is the ability that it has discovered, or opened up a new field of its own abilities.

Wang Ding's heart was full of surprises. When he absorbed the spiritual energy just now, he found that the spiritual energy inside was actually golden yellow. Since Wang Ding obtained this ability just now, it was the first time he encountered this color. ? ? ? ?However, golden yellow is definitely not a low-level color, this is one of Wang Ding's feelings!

This jade cong is square in shape, square on the outside and round on the inside, with a through-hole in the middle. The four corners of the body are engraved with shallow relief patterns of gods, humans and beast faces, and a composite image of gods, humans and beast faces is engraved on the top and bottom of the four straight grooves. The god-man in the main body has an inverted trapezoidal face, heavy ring eyes, and small triangular eye corners on both sides. Its image is strange and mysterious. ? ? ? ?The carvings of the entire jade cong have slender and powerful lines, while the lines between the regions are rough and round, with ancient shapes and mysterious decorations, showing primitive religious consciousness and theocracy thought of totem worship, but the preservation is not very good, and there are many parts in each part. Some damage. ? ? ? ? "Could it be a jade article from the Liangzhu culture?"

Playing with this jade cong, Wang Ding could feel a kind of quaint aura emanating from it, and this idea came to his mind, and along with it, information about Liangzhu jade culture came to his mind.

The Liangzhu Culture was about 5300 to 4000 years ago.They are mainly distributed in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. The processing of jade wares in Liangzhu culture is very developed. Apart from decoration, they are mainly used for witchcraft, sacrifice and burial. Liangzhu culture has strict regulations on the use of jade, which is the beginning of my country's ritual jade system. ? ? ? ?The jade cong is the most distinctive jade in the Liangzhu culture, and it is also the core of the jade rituals in the Liangzhu culture. At that time, the technology of drilling and wire cutting has been used, which has reached the level of jade processing technology at that time. peak. ? ? ? ? "It shouldn't be wrong..."? ? ? ?Although it was the first time for Wang Ding to come into contact with Liangzhu jade wares, the aura contained in this jade wares and the exquisite carving techniques can prove that this is a representative work of Liangzhu jade culture.The most important thing is that the production of the corresponding information on the jade card has proved to a certain extent that this treasure is genuine, isn't it?Treasures of the Liangzhu Culture Period. ? ? ? ? "Mr. Xiao, take a look at this jade cong. I think it is a piece of Liangzhu jade, which can be used as one of the important treasures of this folk treasure appraisal..."? ? ?In order to increase the ratings and attract the attention of the audience, the TV station specially asked the experts to select the three most precious antiques, but so far, except for the authentic Shen Zhou of the Ming Dynasty identified by Mr. Tian, ​​there is no other thing that can be identified. For heavy treasures.So at this moment, Wang Ding saw it right, so he greeted Xiao Changyi who was identifying miscellaneous items, and handed over the jade cong,? ? ? ?

"Well, this thing is interesting, Wang Ding, are you sure?"? ? ? ?After Xiao Changyi played with the jade cong for a while, he asked Wang Ding that one of the conditions for evaluating a heavy treasure is to be recognized by all experts, so Wang Ding first pulled Xiao Changyi who was playing with miscellaneous items, except himself. In addition, Xiao Changyi has the most say in the appraisal of jade articles. ? ? ? ? "Wang Ding, tell me your opinion..."? ? ? ?Seeing that Wang Ding had selected an object to be appraised as a treasure, Hu Yihai and others also surrounded him. ? ? ? ?Wang Ding took the jade cong, pondered for a moment and said, "This is how I see it. All the teachers know that there were not many jade congs in the Shang and Zhou dynasties. Judging from the unearthed objects, the congs in this period were generally in shape. It is relatively short, mostly plain and without grain, which can basically be ruled out. After the Song Dynasty, some antique jade cong appeared, but the Song to Ming imitations were decorated with popular patterns at that time, which obviously does not match this one.”? ? ? ?Xiao Changyi listened and added, "As for the fake ancient jade from the late Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, most of them imitated the plain-faced and short-bodied jade cong from the Shang and Zhou Dynasties. Most of the counterfeit products appear to be more than sleek but not old enough, and it is even more difficult to make the degree of maturity realistic. This one can clearly see the old feeling."? ? ? ? "So based on the above points, I can conclude that this jade cong is indeed an outstanding work in the Liangzhu jade culture. According to the current classification of cultural relics, it seems to be classified as a national first-class cultural relic. As one of the three important treasures this time One, shouldn’t it be an exaggeration?” ? ? ?Wang Ding laughed, and with Xiao Changyi's voice, Wang Ding knew there was nothing wrong.

As soon as Wang Ding finished speaking, the audience applauded. Professor Tian and others also nodded repeatedly. They knew that Wang Ding was very powerful, so there was nothing to deny at the moment.Therefore, they identified this Liangzhu jade cong as one of the important treasures of this folk treasure appraisal.

"I am very grateful to Master Wang for his appreciation. With the confirmation of Liangzhu Ancient Jade, two of our three treasures have been produced today. I hope that all collectors will present their treasures as soon as possible, and strive to become the last one today. Chongbao. Of course, our appreciating time has already passed halfway, and I have worked hard for all the experts!"

He Luo has been commenting on the field to mediate the atmosphere, which has lost the soil for the boring surnames that were originally appreciated, and her beautiful voice and humorous hosting style have also kept the atmosphere on the field good.

Appreciation continues, and there are quite a few good objects. The Liangzhu ancient jade identified by Wang Ding is worth at least 300 million. ? ? ? ?And a painting by Shen Zhou of the Ming Dynasty selected by Professor Tian is also very valuable. At a special auction of antiques in Beijing last year, a painting by Shen Zhou was sold for a high price of 680 million. ? ? ? ?In addition, there are many small gadgets, such as snuff bottles, grasshopper gourds, purple sand teapots, ingots and coins. If they are in good condition, they can be worth hundreds of thousands. A heavy treasure has not been selected, because according to the standards of Wang Ding and others, such a treasure must at least have a certain representative name. Of course, the price is also one of the criteria to consider whether it is valuable. ? ? ? ?Later, there was one with a higher price, but it was still a calligraphy and painting. Because of the repetition, several people had no choice but Wang Ding took this calligraphy and painting into his arms as he wished.

Not only jade appreciation, but also Wang Ding at this stage, because many people would rather wait to find him, so Wang Ding simply stopped recommending everyone to other experts, forming a spectacular one-stop queue.

However, the ones in the front are still holding jade objects.

As time progressed, it was already 10:30 in the morning, and this folk appraising activity was about to end at eleven o'clock. Due to the strict checks of several experts, basically no wrong object was identified, which made those who wanted to fish in troubled waters Even those who did not dare to come to the stage this morning, the items that were appraised today are all real collectors' collections, the quality is relatively high, and Wang Ding and others appraised them very easily. ? ? ? ?Wang Ding appraised the jade wares very quickly, and there were not many ancient jade handed down, and the number of people holding jade wares behind his desk became less and less. Experts, it is estimated that Wang Dingneng will be the first to call it a day. ? ? ? ? "Mr. Wang, can you help me look at this object? There are no jade connoisseurs on your side, and there are quite a lot of people on Master Xiao's side, so I'm afraid I can't be ranked."? ? ? ?Just after Wang Ding identified the treasure holder of the last jade, a middle-aged man walked to Wang Ding's table with a cardboard box. ? ? ? ?Wang Ding took a look at this person. Judging from his appearance, he should be in his 40s, but his hair was gray and he looked a bit old-fashioned. ? ? ? ?The Mr. Xiao he was talking about was Xiao Changyi, the best appraiser of bronze ware and antique furniture. ? ? ? ?Wang Ding glanced over there, and as expected, Xiao Changyi was sweating profusely in this air-conditioned place and was busy. ? ? ? ?You know, most old households have a few pieces of old furniture in their homes. The price of antique furniture has risen rapidly in recent years. There are often news that a certain huanghuali table and chairs have sold for millions of dollars, so Today, there are quite a few people who packed a lot of big things and came here. When they came, they parked a few big trucks in front of the hotel. Those who didn’t know it thought they were moving. ? ? ?And Xiao Changyi, like Wang Ding, has had a great influence after the last show was broadcast, and Xiao Changyi himself has great strength and influence in Panjiayuan, so the people who are looking for him to appreciate the show this time are also very special. many.

His main choice is also the category of antique furniture and bronzes.

"What object are you trying to identify? I can only take a look first. Apart from jade and porcelain, I'm not very proficient in other objects..."? ? ? ?Wang Ding did not dare to speak out this time, because it is easy for him to identify the authenticity, but if he is not familiar with something, it is also a problem if he can’t find faults. Just think of the Tang Sancai camel, which was forced to be smashed in the end. Only when the truth comes out.This time I don't want to continue to stage that kind of drama! ? ? ? ? "Mr. Wang, what I want to appraise is a bronze ware, why don't you take a look first?" ? ? ?The middle-aged man put the cardboard box in his hand on the table. Only then did Wang Ding realize that it was actually a leather shoe box, so he was not very optimistic about this object.If it is a valuable thing, it must be packaged better, it is impossible to put it in a shoe box.

Wang Ding was too lazy to use clairvoyance, so he said, "Okay, let me have a look first, sir, what is your name? What is the origin of this object?"? ? ? ?While untying the rope that tied the shoe box, Wang Ding chatted with the middle-aged man. The appraisal of antiques not only depends on things, but also on people. Knowing the origin of its inheritance, otherwise you may encounter something that is not sure. Stolen goods, or objects dug out of the soil, it's okay to encounter these things in private, but on this occasion, it's a bit inappropriate. ? ? ? ? "Mr. Wang, my surname is Yang. Our ancestors opened an antique shop. However, during the Cultural Revolution, the four old things were destroyed and all those things were destroyed. There is only one thing left. The elders of the family passed away early. I didn't explain what it was. I'm just an ordinary laid-off worker, and I don't usually see you experts. Taking this opportunity, I would like to ask Mr. Wang to take a look. Is it an antique and how much is it worth?"? ? ? ?The middle-aged man surnamed Yang was a little cautious, and he reported his family history once, and clasped his hands together, showing the tension in his heart. The glory of his ancestors has long been in the past.Now his life is not satisfactory, his wife and children rely on him to do a small business to make ends meet. ? ? ? ?Originally, Mr. Yang didn’t know about the folk appraising program this time. He just saw it while watching the news two days ago. He wanted to try his luck today. It can also solve the tuition fees for children to go to college, right? ? ? ? ?Mr. Yang was not without excitement, but Wang Ding was much more gentle, "Hehe, Mr. Yang, sit down first. Although I don't know much about bronze wares, this kind of antiques, as long as they are real, are all expensive. Don't worry. Let me consider……"? ? ? ?To be honest, Wang Ding really doesn't believe what this middle-aged man said, not because he has no sympathy, but because in the antique business, the most indispensable thing is a story, not to mention laid-off workers, or a paralyzed wife , Some people can make up stories about their children's mental illness. Wang Ding heard a lot of these things when he was working in a pawn shop. ? ? ? ?So say more.It's all fiction, the real can't be fake, and the fake can't be real, we still have to read the things before talking about it. ? ? ? ?However, Wang Ding didn't need to say more.

After untying the rope, Wang Ding stretched out his hand and opened the shoe box, spiritual energy poured in immediately, and a small three-legged tripod with green patina came into view, which made Wang Ding's eyes brighten up. ? ? ? ?This is a three-legged tripod-mounted bronze gui in the Warring States period. The shape of the vessel is dignified and majestic. The three animal feet are tall and powerful.Vivid.The erythema and patina are naturally cut into the fetal bone, and are made by pottery molding method, with clear molding lines. ? ? ? ?Ding is one of the most important types of bronze ware. It is a utensil for cooking and storing meat. For more than 2000 years from Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties to Qin and Han Dynasties, Ding has always been the most common and mysterious ritual vessel. ? ? ? ?Generally speaking, there are three-legged round tripods and four-legged square tripods, and they can be divided into two types: covered and uncovered. They have always been regarded as important national treasures. It is a symbol of state and power. After Dayu established the Xia Dynasty, he used the gold tribute from the world's nine animal husbandry to cast the Jiuding to symbolize the Kyushu, which shows the importance of the tripod in the hearts of ancient emperors. ? ? ?Wang Ding's name was taken because of Ding's important surname, and the symbol of the emperor, rich and powerful, Wang Ding heard his father Wang Jianyi talk about it.

……

This bronze tripod includes the tripod body and the tripod cover. It is a complete set of vessels, which is extremely rare. You must know that the bronze tripods of the Warring States Period rarely produced small pieces, that is, most of the tripods were There is no lid, and secondly, even if there is such a vessel, after thousands of years, the tripod and lid have been separated long ago, and the labor and swallows have been separated. It can be said that it can be preserved so completely, which can be said to be rare. ? ? ? ?Wang Ding took the tripod out of the shoe box, held it in his hand, touched the cold body of the tripod, felt the texture of the coiled beetle pattern when his fingertips passed over it, even if he didn't use the power, Wang Ding can almost conclude that this is a bronze tripod from the Warring States Period with a wide open door. ? ? ? ?At the position where the three beast feet of the bronze tripod connect with the tripod body, there is a beast head. Although it is only carved out with a few knives, it undoubtedly reveals the expression of the beast, and the production is lifelike. ? ? ? ?It may be the reason why people often play with it, but the patina of this bronze tripod is very thick, and there is no sign of fraud at all.Moreover, the red spots and green rust on the tripod's body seemed to seep into the vessel, as if it was born with it, and it seemed so harmonious that Wang Ding held it in his hand and was reluctant to put it down for a long time.

"Master Wang, have you noticed my thing? This treasure is really left by my ancestors. If it is not something valuable, I...I really don't know how the family uncovered it?"

Mr. Yang had high expectations for this bronze ware, so he was a little trembling when he spoke. Wang Ding knew very well what this tripod meant to Mr. Yang. Maybe he was Mr. Yang’s life-saving straw. It was precisely because of this that Wang Ding said slowly, "Mr. Yang, Don't be too nervous, I saw this thing at first glance, it's not bad, let me take a deeper look."

"Hold on!"

"Okay, I will trouble you, Master Wang!???? I took the tape measure at hand and measured it. This small three-legged bronze tripod is 23 centimeters high, and the maximum diameter of the round belly in the middle is 'cm. Observed in hand, the three-dimensional sense is very strong.

After examining it again, Wang Ding can almost conclude that there is nothing wrong with this thing, the Warring States Bronze Cauldron, with the appearance of this treasure, today's heavy weapon is considered complete! ? ? ? ? "Master Xiao, please put the object in your hand first, I think, you can take a look at this bronze tripod for me first, it is very interesting."? ? ? ?Before saying hello to Xiao Changyi, Wang Ding deliberately entered the bronze tripod. The purple-gold aura inside indicated that this was indeed a bronze tripod from the Warring States period, because Wang Ding had just become familiar with the aura and his professional judgment , gave this answer.

In addition to the Liangzhu jade, this is the second antique that Wang Ding has seen that contains golden aura. From these two objects, Wang Ding feels that his ability to appraise treasures has reached a sufficient level. high altitude.

Not only the history of the treasure, but also the reference of the color. Appreciation of treasures is more three-dimensional and in-depth. With the cooperation of his professional knowledge, Xiao Changyi is estimated to be an old senior of appraisal, Mr. Zhuang, the president of the Cultural Association. It's all under him, can Wang Ding not be excited?

Xiao Changyi knew that Wang Ding would not call himself casually. Since he spoke, he must have seen something interesting.

Xiao Changyi's cooperation with Wang Ding this time has completely occupied the position of an active expert, and Hu Yihai and Professor Tian are naturally the foils.

This time, everyone is relatively peaceful and has no conflicts in appreciating treasures.

After TV#'s ratings hit a record last time, they originally wanted to call in Coach Tian, ​​who was relatively busy, and had reached a tit-for-tat situation, but obviously, Professor Tian didn't have the courage to compete with Wang Ding and Xiao Changyi.

Xiao Changyi grinned, faced Wang Ding, and put down the ancient objects in his hands.

"Wang Ding, what good thing did you find again? We are still short of a treasure. If you find this treasure again, you will see all the treasure."? ? ? ?The first person to come here was not Xiao Changyi, but Hu Yihai, the tall and thin descendant of the master of Chinese studies. His words were a little off that day, but today he has no airs at all. He is very kind and gets along very well with Wang Ding. Make some harmless jokes.

Of course, he also knew that he couldn't shake this guy, so it's better to obey than to resist! (To be continued.)
