Chapter 439
He Jie kept up with Li Yang, but it was just one more person in the team.

The few people who followed He Jie were employees of his clubhouse. After He Jie and Li Yang left together, they were all sent away, and it was not convenient for them to follow.

It was the end of October now, the weather was much cooler than in June, and Li Yang was in a good mood, so he started walking from store to store.

Mr. Mao, Bai Ming, and Teacher Cai came here to hang out with Li Yang, without any purpose. They discussed and commented together from time to time, which seemed very lively.

Regardless of whether they bought something or not, the bosses of these stores basically sent them out personally. The reputation of Mr. Mao, Bai Ming and Teacher Cai is not low, and any one of them is worthy of their attention. Needless to say, several people came together.

He Jie also looked at some things and asked a few questions, but he didn't meet any one he was particularly satisfied with, so he could only continue to wander around blindly with Li Yang.

"The Shoushan stone in this store is good, let's go in and have a look?"

When I walked to the entrance of an antique shop, Teacher Cai stopped suddenly and pointed inside. This shop mainly sells various stone carvings and wood carvings, and there are also a few jade carvings and seals. Teacher Cai has been here several times before. .

"it is good!"

Li Yang nodded immediately, he came here for no purpose, and there are not many shops in Liulichang that specialize in sculptures like this, even if Teacher Cai didn't say anything, Li Yang would probably ask to come in and take a look.

This store is not big, the storefront is only about [-] square meters, it is considered a small store in Liulichang.

Although the sparrow is small, it has all internal organs. This store is the same. There are counters on three sides, and there are wooden shelves behind it. There are many carvings, the most of which are stone carvings, accounting for more than half.

Li Yang took a look around, most of this shop is modern art, and there are some old things, especially the stone carvings, there are several good ancient stone carvings, the location of the display should be the main shop of this shop Treasure.

He Jie also walked in, and looked around with great interest.He Jie still remembers that the old man once said that Chinese sculpture art is extensive and profound. There are many sculptors, but there are not many master sculptors. There are only a few at most in each period. It is not easy to collect good sculpture art.

Looking at sculptures is a little different from looking at other things. Sculptures are firstly seen by the carver, and secondly by the material.For some famous master carvers, such as Chen Wuji, the manual cost of carving is calculated in millions, which is enough to see the importance of carvers in the carvings.

Because of this, Li Yang did not use special abilities, but watched carefully one by one, comparing the differences between these works of art.

"Teacher Cai, you are here!"

There was only one person in the store, a fat man in his fifties. As soon as Li Yang and the others came in, the fat man ran over with a smile on his face. After seeing Mr. Mao and Bai Ming next to Teacher Cai, the fat man was stunned for a moment.

"Mr. Mao, Mr. Bai, you two are here too. The small shop is really full of splendor today. Please invite some masters. The shop is small. Let's make do and sit down for a while. I'll make some tea!"

"No, Boss Luo doesn't need to be so troublesome, we will leave after a while!"

Teacher Cai shook his head hastily. It is true that he has been to this store several times, but he has no deep relationship with the store owner, so he hurriedly called the store owner to stop.

"No trouble, what's the trouble here, I usually can't invite a few masters, but it's an honor for the shop to be able to come!"

Boss Luo is very good at talking, Teacher Cai can only nod helplessly, Li Yang and He Jie on the side did not pay attention to their chatting, but carefully looked at all kinds of sculptures on the counter and shelves .

Boss Luo didn't care either, Li Yang, He Jie and Liu Gang were all regarded by him as young juniors, and Li Yang was already used to this.

Teacher Cai didn't specifically introduce Li Yang, this was arranged by Li Yang before, as long as these shop owners don't know him, don't name him, otherwise it will be more troublesome.

After leaving Gu Yuzhai, Bai Ming introduced Li Yang to the first shop he entered, but he was dragged by the shop owner to talk for ten minutes, which wasted a lot of time. After learning the lesson, no one will reveal Li Yang's identity again.

"Li Yang, what is this, it's very beautiful!"

He Jie suddenly pointed to a piece of Baitian stone carving. Baitian stone is a kind of Shoushan stone. The value of top-quality Baitian stone is not inferior to that of Tianhuang stone.

The carving of this stone carving is also very ordinary. Li Yang glanced at it and replied casually: "This is a stone carving of Baitian. It shouldn't be expensive!"

"Kuixing wins the battle, what does it mean?" He Jie stared, Boss Luo glanced at them, but did not speak.

Li Yang smiled, pointed to the stone carving and asked, "Look first, what is this?"

What Li Yang was referring to was the one in the shape of the main body of the stone carving. Liu Gang also came over and carefully looked at the stone carving that Li Yang was pointing to.

"It should be a person, or a god?"

He Jie replied uncertainly, the stone sculpture is about [-] centimeters high, which is relatively large. On the top is a sculpture in the shape of a human figure, and on the bottom is a large stone. It's a faucet.

"This is not a human being, nor is it a fairy, this is a ghost!"

Li Yang shook his head with a smile, He Jie's eyes widened, and he pointed to the stone sculpture and asked again: "You said it was a ghost? Does anyone else make ghosts into stone sculptures?"

"Under normal circumstances, no one will carve ghost sculptures, except for those dedicated to temples, but there is one situation that is different. Although the sculptures are ghosts, they have auspicious meanings!"

Li Yang chuckled, He Jie doesn't understand the situation in antiques, so it's completely normal to have such doubts.

"Brother Jie, are you looking at what this ghost is stepping on? How did he step on it?"

He Jie looked at it carefully, and finally said uncertainly: "Is it a dragon that you stepped on? This dragon is a bit strange, and it is even more strange to be stepped on by a ghost, and it is still stepped on with one foot!"

"Haha!" Li Yang laughed out loud suddenly, Teacher Cai and the others were all attracted, and Boss Luo looked at them again.

"This is not a dragon, this is called Ao, a mythical creature in legends, one foot is on the head of the Ao, that is the meaning of being the number one!"

Li Yang explained again with a smile, He Jie nodded, this thing didn't look like a dragon to him, he understood Li Yang's explanation immediately.

"This means to be the best, what about Kuixing Diandou?"

He Jie asked again, this stone sculpture is "Kuixing Diandou, the champion", now the second half of the sentence has come out, but he couldn't see the first half of it.

"Kuixing Diandou is in this ghost's hands, what do you think this ghost is holding in both hands?"

Li Yang smiled again, this time not only He Jie went to look carefully, but even Liu Gang stared at the carved ghost hand with wide eyes.

"Boss, can you bring this thing over so we can have a look?"

Stretching his head to see it was really uncomfortable, He Jie called out to Boss Luo, Boss Luo looked at Teacher Cai, then ran over to give them the things on the counter, and then went back to chat with Teacher Cai and the others.

Both He Jie and Li Yang didn't care about Boss Luo's attitude. For He Jie, this was just right, and he could be quieter without being disturbed.

"The uplifted hand is holding a writing brush, right? The lower hand is holding a wooden box. What does that mean?"

"You are right about the pen, but what you are holding in the other hand is not a wooden box. It is called a bucket. It is an ancient container for wine. It is just a pictographic meaning here. Brother Jie, there is an extra word in the word 'ghost'." What's the word for 'dou'?"

Li Yang looked at He Jie with a smile, the carving was average, but the meaning was different.In fact, there were many such carvings in ancient times, and some of the four treasures of the study would be carved with such patterns, or painted on some porcelain, which represented a kind of blessing and auspiciousness.

"Qui!"

He Jie's eyes lit up, and he immediately replied, Kuixing Diandou's Kui character came out, and Dou also came out.

Li Yang nodded with a smile, and continued: "That's right, this ghost is holding a brush in his hand and pointing at the sky, which means to use the pen to hit the name of the person who passed the exam. In our ancient Tang and Song Dynasties, there was a huge Ao Tou engraved on the steps in front of the emperor's palace. Talented scholars such as champions had to stand on the Ao Tou when they entered the palace for pilgrimage, so it was also called "Shang Ao Tou", which means "Kuixing Diandou, the number one". 'The origin!"

Li Yang explained it slowly, and Boss Luo looked at Li Yang in surprise. Many people know this story, but not many people can tell it so well. Li Yang can tell so many things. It is enough to prove that this young man knows a lot.

Having said so much, Li Yang also has a strong interest in this sculpture. This thing is a good gift for others, even if it is not given away, it is also good for their school.

"Brother Jie, do you want this thing?"

Li Yang turned his head and asked He Jie, this is what He Jie took a fancy to first, if He Jie wanted it, he would not want it, there are many such things, it is not difficult to buy them.

"Forget it, I don't want it!"

He Jie looked at it for a while, and finally shook his head. He doesn't care about money, but it's really useless to him. This kind of thing is most suitable for students, but not for the old man. What he wants most now is A birthday gift, not something else.

But after hearing Li Yang's story, he also became interested in these stone carvings, so he looked down slowly. Li Yang looked carefully at the stone carving of "Kuixing nods, the leader" and finally nodded.

Subconsciously, Li Yang displayed his special ability, covering the entire room, including the stone sculpture in front of him.

This is also Li Yang's habit, first use his eyes to judge his current eyesight, and finally use his special ability to verify.
