Chapter 37 A Letter From Home (For Collection)
It's not easy for Yu Yao to show any face to an old man, "Okay, I'll just take a look."

Lao Zhou opened the brocade box and took out the "Yuxi".

It is really a Panlong button, and it is also very big, with a square edge of four inches, and the jade is also very white.

Looking at it coldly, it really makes a lot of sense.

But, it is from Beijing Baiyu.

The biggest advantage of the material of Jingbaiyu is that it is white, the pure white is uniform, and it is also very delicate.But its composition is quartzite, after all, jade is too poor.Bright, brittle, with a luster more like glass.

Moreover, the output of Jingbaiyu is very large, and the price has always been quite cheap.In the market, some people use Jingbaiyu to pretend to be Hetian Yumeng people, although only beginners can be deceived.

Lao Zhou is very proficient in jade materials, holding the Panlong button, his heart is cold.You should listen to Yu Yao.

But since I picked it up, I flipped through the printed text by the way.

Although the printed text is a reverse engraved Xiaozhuan, Lao Zhou can still recognize it after studying it for a while.

The treasure of Emperor Huizong of the Great Song Dynasty.

Lao Zhou gritted his teeth, feeling that his teeth were hurting.Yu Yao glanced at him at this time, and he said angrily, "That's amazing, the treasure of Emperor Huizong of Song Dynasty!"

Not to mention whether Song Huizong Zhao Ji had this jade seal, just "Huizong".

Hu Liang seemed to really not understand. After Lao Zhou finished speaking, he smiled along with him.

Old Zhou Xin said, no wonder the shop lost money, how could there be so many fools?

Hu Liang's father could see it, and he couldn't hide it.He started off by saying, "Like someone from the antique circle," but that was just opening.How can there be any good things with his stuff?It's all based on the mentality that if you get a trick, you count it as one thing, and if you can reduce a little loss, you count a little bit.

Lao Zhou put his things back, then got up, ready to leave.Hu Liang's father looked at it and thought to himself that he could only see off the guests. These two people seemed to be connoisseurs, so there was nothing left to do.

Unexpectedly, at this time Yu Yao picked out a few old books from the stack, "Hu Liang is busy, let's take some old books and go."

After finishing speaking, he conveniently put these old books on the small long table, "Grandpa, please take a look."

Lao Zhou was overjoyed, and thought, did Yu Yao really discover something good?Before Hu Liang's father got his hands on it, he picked it up and started to read it.

But after reading it, there was a look of disappointment on his face. These few books are all block-printed novels from the Qing Dynasty, and they are all rough editions of Minfang, which are still incomplete.

However, when I flipped through it, there were a few pieces of letterhead in it, but it looked very ordinary, and it seemed to be very old when it was inserted in the book, and some of them were stuck tightly, so Lao Zhou didn't care.

Hu Liang said with a smile, "Cultural people, I like this kind of stuff."

Yu Yao said, "Since they're all here, brother Hu Liang is busy, so he has to take care of the business. How about it? Give a price to a friend?"

Hu Liang's father picked it up casually, and saw a total of four books, "I remember, this is a Qing edition book. Originally, one book was missing [-] yuan and couldn't be sold. So, let's give [-] yuan in total for the four books!"

When Yu Yao saw that he hadn't even opened it, he was overjoyed and pretended to be surprised, "Isn't it? A total of eight hundred is about the same."

Lao Zhou couldn't figure out why Yu Yao bought these broken books, but he still said with a displeasure on his face, "It's not a good thing to travel all the way here, not to mention the travel expenses! "

Yu Yao looked at Hu Liang, "Look, I want to take care of your father's business, but the price is too high!"

Hu Liang knew that there was nothing good about his dad's stuff, "Dad, we are all friends, the green hills don't change, the green waters flow forever, you see..."

"What a mess!" Father Hu Liang glared at him, "You have never been in the antique business, what do you know?"

"Okay, you two talk slowly, let's go, I'm sorry, I can't take care of the business even if I want to." Yu Yao cupped his hands.

Lao Zhou shook his head, "You are busy, goodbye."

Hu Liang's father pulled his face and looked at Yu Yao and Lao Zhou, "You guys think it's high, talk back!"

Yu Yao said, "As I said just now, there are about eight hundred in total."

"You're too low!" Father Hu Liang responded.

At this time, Hu Liang rolled his eyes, "So, add another two hundred, round up, one thousand, okay?"

Hu Liang's father shouted, "Brat, when did you learn to turn your elbows outward?"

Yu Yao said while pulling his feet, "One thousand is acceptable, but if the old man says no, I'll just leave."

Lao Zhou cooperated well and went straight out the door.

"Take it, take it!" Hu Liang put several books in a stack and put them in Yu Yao's hands.Hu Liang's father didn't speak at this time, but just snorted.

But Yu Yao didn't answer, looked at Hu Liang's father and said, "Old man, this is your business, please give me a good word. If you don't tell me, I can't answer, so let's go."

"That's it, at least he's Liangzi's friend!" Father Hu Liang raised his hand.Yu Yao and Lao Zhou looked like they were really going to leave.

In fact, he collected all the old books by the catty, and it would be nice if four books could sell for a thousand for this kind of goods at home!This kind of rough and incomplete Qing version of Minfang prints is still a novel, and it is not a historical classic, or it is stored in an antique shop, and the price of a copy is two to three hundred.

Yu Yao nodded, pointed out 1000 yuan, and handed it to Hu Liang, "deal."

Hu Liang took the money, cheerfully sent Yu Yao and Lao Zhou out, and then sent them to a taxi.

After the taxi drove for a while, Lao Zhou turned his head and asked Yu Yao who was sitting beside him, "I said, what's the secret behind these rags?"

However, Yu Yao carefully took out the letterheads from the book one by one. It took a lot of effort to peel off the letterheads that were tightly attached.

There are seven in total.

"Look, this is a letter from home. It's not bad luck. It's complete."

Lao Zhou suddenly realized, "So this is the good thing!" After saying that, he looked at it.

"Don't look at the content, just look at the letterhead, it's the high-quality letterhead of Songzhuzhai in the Qing Dynasty! You know Songzhuzhai? It's the predecessor of Rongbaozhai in Liulichang."

Letterhead, of course, is letter paper.Don't feel small, there are a lot of things to pay attention to.As far as the Qing Dynasty was concerned, Qingmi Pavilion and Songzhuzhai in Liulichang were the most famous for making letterheads. Not to mention dignitaries and literati, even some imperial letterheads were also customized here.

Rongbaozhai is still there today, and there is still a storefront in Liulichang. It has a history of more than 300 years. The Nanzhidian Songzhuzhai built during the Kangxi period is its predecessor.

"Good words! Why didn't I pay attention at the time!" Lao Zhou was surprised while flipping through the pages.

"You were depressed at the time, and the wind was not calm and the waves were not calm and calm, so how could you appreciate this fine handwriting!" Yu Yao smiled, "Let's look at the signature again!"

　Please collect it and add it to the bookshelf, thank you very much.
