God-level Golden Hand

Chapter 1420 Spirit Turtle Spits Ink
The interior of the house is fairly spacious, but the sanitary conditions are really poor.

The houses here are very old, and most of them even have gray brick floors, that is, the kind of floor that is spread out with gray bricks and then plastered with yellow mud.

But there are many disadvantages, such as a lot of dust, bugs, unevenness, easy to get damp, difficult to clear the smell, etc. Anyway, people in the new century don’t use this method when building houses. Even if they can’t afford floor tiles, they will use them. Cement over again.

For this reason, not to mention the hygienic conditions in this room, not to mention a person like Xu Jingxing with keen senses, even Lao Yang, who has suffered a lot, can't stand this environment, and retreated before entering the door, but Seeing Xu Jingxing going in without hesitation, he could only bite the bullet and keep up.

Of course Xu Jingxing also felt uncomfortable, but for the sake of the treasures in the house, he had to do so.

what baby

He doesn't know it for the time being, but he has a sense of the truth. Even if it's not a national treasure, it must not be too bad.

To be honest, when he sensed the existence of the baby in the house, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that "a person cannot be judged by his appearance, and the sea cannot be measured." Who would have thought that the middle-aged man who looked sloppy could have so many pieces nice one?
Who would have thought that there would be valuable treasures hidden in such a dilapidated house that even mice might dislike?
Follow Jiwotou through the door and turn into a small room on the side. In the small room there is a big Kang by the window sill. There are no bedding on the Kang. There are only various antiques. There are hundreds of them. There are several locked wooden boxes, which also seem to be antiques.

But the one that Xu Jingxing sensed was placed on the kang.

Of course, he would not go straight to the goal, but made a look of surprise: "So many?"

Lao Yang was also very cooperative: "That's right. I thought there were only ten or eight small items, but I didn't expect there to be so many. There are three figures. You can open a small shop."

The head of the chicken coop said modestly: "No, it's just handy. Stone pieces are my main business. These are all picked up by the hare rabbits, but they are all good things, really good things. I don’t bother to accept things that aren’t good, they’re not troublesome enough, don’t you think so?”

Old Yang nodded again and again: "That's the truth, but we have to wait and see whether it's a good thing or not," he said before asking: "In other words, you can get started with it, right?"

"Okay, just don't break or get dirty," Jiwotou said generously.

Only then did Xu Jingxing bend down and carefully hold up a gray inkstone. This is a typical Chengni inkstone. The texture is fine and hard, but the hand feels very special. It has a slight roughness but is very smooth. It's a very special feeling, and it's light in the hand and very comfortable to hold.

As for the shape, it looks very ordinary. It is a common oval shape. The diameter of the ink pool part is [-] centimeters, and the tail is only [-] to [-] centimeters. size circle.

There is almost no embellishment on the front of the inkstone, but at the junction of the ink pool and the end of the inkstone, a turtle is carved with the head facing the ink pool and the tail facing the inkstone using the semi-circular carving technique. The shape of the turtle is a typical Chinese tortoise, small and cute, but The workmanship is not outstanding, there is almost nothing outstanding, it can only be regarded as quite satisfactory.

But behind the little turtle's tail and in the blank space of the inkstone tail, there are eight small characters in regular script, "Spiritual turtle spits out ink, and the spirit is self-contained".

These eight small characters in Xingkai are written very well, with smooth and powerful strokes, firm inside and soft outside, and the overall structure is stretched and elegant, and the visual effect of these eight characters is even better. It fits very well, as if these eight characters are tailor-made for the little turtle. Obviously the level of the eight characters is very high, but here it is not at all abrupt.

This is the handwriting left by a calligrapher who is very good at "hiding the front".

As for who it is, Xu Jingxing can't recognize it. After all, there are not too many people who have written well since ancient times. Apart from those famous calligraphers, there are many amazing talents who have been buried in the long river of history and time. known.

But who the author is is not important to Xu Jingxing at all, what is important is that this inkstone gave birth to its true form, which is a restrained little tortoise. The little tortoise looks very ordinary at first glance, lying motionless in the ink pool , but the slightly opened and closed small eyes reveal a hidden light, and the physical properties of the inkstone flow in the half-open mouth.

Even, when he was trying to greet the little turtle with his true self, the little turtle would still pretend to be dead.

This spirituality is really rare.

If there is no accident, this inkstone should have followed its owner for a long time, and it is only through long-term influence of writing and ink that it has cultivated such a rare spirituality.

I just don't know what kind of special effect it will have when using this Yantai love grinding ink.

He also collected a few miraculous inkstones before, and those inkstones also gave birth to their true colors, all of which are rare and good inkstones, but compared with this one, they are a bit less interesting.

What's more, there are eight small characters on this inkstone that he can learn and study for a lifetime. Those are the master's handwriting that can really improve his calligraphy level. He even doubts that this inkstone can give birth to such a spiritual original Phase is closely related to those eight characters.

If his guess is true, then the author of these eight characters must be a practitioner, and these eight characters are no longer pure calligraphy, but abilities similar to Taoist edicts and Buddhist mantras.

Of course, that kind of ability sounds miraculous, but it is actually no better than the current Xu Jingxing. The current Xu Jingxing can start to create "truth" out of thin air.

But using calligraphy to achieve this goal still gave him a refreshing feeling.

After seeing the inkstone, he put it down casually, picked up a blue and white plate and looked at it carefully, discussing it with Lao Yang while looking at it, and deliberately expressed it in that kind of vague language, which made people feel confused. I don't understand.

Not to mention, there are really some dry goods here. Although the quality is mostly mediocre, they are also genuine products that can be sold in the market. Even Lao Yang has taken a fancy to a small copper incense burner.

After dawdling for a long time, Xu Jingxing picked out three old items from a kang, and asked the boss of Jiwotou, "What's the price?"

Jiwotou thought for a while and said, "If you really want it, you can take 3 yuan for one piece."

"Too expensive!"

Xu Jingxing shook his head without thinking.

"Hey, brother, these are all good things, let's talk about the blue and white plate, it is a good product from the official kiln, 3 yuan is not expensive at all."

That blue and white dish is indeed a genuine old object, but if you want to talk about the official kiln...

Bullying Xu Jingxing, have you never seen what the porcelain from the official kiln looks like?Besides, even if it is an official kiln, it may also be an official kiln in the late Qing Dynasty. At that time, the official kiln was basically not much different from the folk kiln, and even to some extent it was not as distinctive as the folk kiln porcelain. Although there are fine products, But this blue and white dish is absolutely not.

He took this blue and white plate out to make up for it.

So when he heard what Jiwotou said, he put the blue and white plate back on the kang without saying a word, the meaning was very simple, he would not buy it if he was so expensive.

Sure enough, Jiwotou stopped talking all of a sudden, stared blankly at Xu Jingxing, and said after a while, "Big brother, you, we have to have a procedure in bargaining, don't we?"

"When I'm okay, I might dawdle with you slowly, but now I'm in a hurry, so let's just make it easy and give a good word. I will guarantee that the price is right and I will not lower the price so that you can make money. If the price is not right, we will also Don't talk nonsense, don't waste everyone's time," Xu Jingxing was very straightforward, very direct, and spoke clearly.

Jiwotou squeezed out a smile, "Then tell me a price."

"One piece is five thousand."

"No, it's too low," Jiwotou hurriedly shook his head.

"Ten thousand."

"Do not……"

Xu Jingxing didn't wait for Jiwotou to finish speaking, put down the things in his hand, turned around and left.

"Wait," Ji Wotou was really anxious, grabbed Xu Jingxing's wrist, and shouted, "Ten thousand is ten thousand."

It's better to earn something than nothing, and the price is not low.

Xu Jingxing shook off Jiwotou's claws, transferred 2 yuan directly, and then pointed to the stone sculptures outside: "Where are those?"

"Those," Jiwotou rolled his eyes and wanted to make an offer, but after a while, he said helplessly, "Eight thousand a piece, it's very cheap."

The price of stone carvings is generally not too high, but it is not too low, because the weight of the stone is placed there, and the old stone carvings are all hand-carved, so although they are unpopular, the price is still relatively stable. Keep it at around [-] yuan, and sell the old and new stone carvings as old ones, the profit is quite high.

Jiwotou obviously planned to open his mouth, but at the last moment he honestly quoted a market price, apparently because he was afraid that Xu Jingxing would disagree with him and give up the bid directly.

Obviously, Xu Jingxing's little tactic succeeded.

Therefore, he didn't lower the price any more, and transferred the money to Jiwotou as quickly as possible, then called Zheng Sijin and asked Zheng Sijin to drive over.

While waiting for Zheng Sijin, he took out a box of red pandas and distributed one to Lao Yang and Jiwotou, and asked casually, "What's the origin of your things?"

"It's from the village," Jiwotou subconsciously replied.

"truth."

"Ahem, really, most of them were harvested from the countryside, and a small part was bought from other vendors." Jiwotou couldn't stand Xu Jingxing's aura, so he shrank his neck and told the truth.

It is true, but only a small part of it should be true, that is to say, some of these old items were really bought from other hawkers, but I don’t know which ignorant person gave these good things to the market. I gave it to Jiwotou, who sells fakes.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, these few good things are his now.
