Shi Qu took the microphone and slowly spoke to the people in the audience:”The reward I took out is not too valuable, but it is the most meaningful thing in my opinion.”
“Now, giving it to Brother Cao in the form of a prize, in my opinion, can be regarded as a continuation of inheritance.”
After hearing this, everyone in the audience was full of curiosity about the contents of the box.
Even Cao Zijian was no exception
“I won’t say what the reward is yet.”
“Because with Brother Cao’s eyesight, he will definitely be able to identify what kind of object this is.”
“So, let Brother Cao answer your questions.”
When Cao Zijian heard this, he was not pretentious. He nodded, took the wooden box on the tray and opened it.
He saw silence inside. Four rectangular ink blocks were lying on it.
Cao Zijian picked up an ink block and put it in his hand, looking at it carefully.
The ink was moist and solid, like jade. It is not as strong as jade.
The front and back sides are engraved with words and patterns in gold.
The top of the ink is engraved with the words”tung oil smoke”
“Mr. Shi, if I read correctly, this is Tongyan Huimo, right?”Cao Zijian said
“I have to say that Brother Cao is really well-informed.”Shi Qu’s words undoubtedly proved that what Cao Zijian said was completely correct.
This also made everyone in the audience who knew the origin of Tongyan Huimo look envious.
“It’s actually Tongyan Huimo, Lao Shi is really serious this time”
“Tong Yan Hui Ink is rarely seen in the market, and it is basically in a stage where demand exceeds supply.”
“When Lao Shi bought these four pieces of Hui ink from the auction house, I asked him to give them to me evenly, but Lao Shi refused at all. Unexpectedly, he now regarded them as rewards.”
Listening to everyone’s discussion, Shi Qu smiled and said:”Let me tell you something. ”
“this happened to me”
“A few months ago, my grandson asked me a question”
“He said, why does every country have its own luxury brands, such as Hermès, Louis Vuitton, etc. Why doesn’t our Dragon Country have such luxury goods?”
“When I heard this question, I thought it was funny at the time, because our Dragon Kingdom not only has luxury goods”
“And whether it is price or cultural value, it far exceeds the top foreign brands.”
“For example, these four pieces of tung smoke and ink are one of the top luxuries of our Dragon Kingdom.”
Cao Zijian agreed with Shi Qu’s words.
Because he clearly understood that it was not easy to make this Tongyan Huimo.
Otherwise, there would be no popular saying of ‘one tael of gold, one tael of ink’.
First of all, you must use an oil lamp to make tung smoke emblem ink, and the smoke can be made from the burning smoke. If you write with a pen dipped in Tongyan Hui ink, the color of the ink will last for thousands of years. Only this kind of ink made Su Shi admire it:”Mo Cheng did not dare to use it and entered Penglai Palace.” Only in this way can the ink engraving mold be entered. link. After a stable period of one winter and one summer, all the moisture in the ink will be completely evaporated, and the blackness and brightness will evaporate. Only in this way can the ink block produced be”as strong as jade, with a pattern as rhinoceros, and can write dozens of paintings without consuming one or two points.”” In order to mix the black smoke and the auxiliary materials evenly enough, a”light glue 100,000 pestles” are needed. The intention
[Go to read the novel on the site: https://novelsknight.com/] is to make the ink glue as strong as rhinoceros The stone has a rich luster, is durable and will not fade for a long time. Then pour the melted glue into the soot, and then add natural musk, gold foil, borneol and other Chinese herbal medicines. After that, you need to prepare more than a dozen precious Chinese herbal medicines and boil a pot of medicinal soup to melt the beef bone glue and cowhide used to make ink. Glue. This drying takes two years. , when its fire properties fade away and the blackness completely evaporates. The impurities in the ash will precipitate, and finally the pure soot floating on the water will be dried in the shade for later use. All the collected soot needs to be put into the water. Clean it. Moreover, the soot must be as thin as a needle and floating like smoke. So there must be someone working 24 hours a day, no Use your hands to brush the soot intermittently. Collecting the ashes is even more difficult. It is a tedious job, but if a little time is delayed in the middle and it clumps together, the result will not be the best Tongyan Huimo. This kind of soot yield is extremely low. An oil lamp can only produce about 10g of soot a day. The smoke is absorbed in the small porcelain bowl. It can only be made with soot. After lighting the oil, cover a small porcelain bowl on top. He must choose trees that are more than five years old. The seeds of the tung tree are made into tung oil. The craftsmanship is also very complicated.
This kind of smoke is very difficult to obtain.
“The invention of ink is a blessing for the culture of the Dragon Kingdom.” Shi Qu continued:”With it, information and writing can be spread and preserved, and with it, our thousand-year history and culture can be immortalized.”
“Ink has flourished for thousands of years in the long history. It has been a representative of cultural knowledge from ancient times to the present.”
“Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer scenes of writing.”
“The ink-making craft, which has flourished for thousands of years, is still inevitably declining.”
“Many things left by our ancestors are gradually beginning to fall apart.”
“From ancient times when ink was hard to find, today’s children don’t know what ink is.”
“The development of science and technology has allowed us to abandon many cumbersome processes”
“Maybe in the future, ink will eventually become history”
“But the history written with it will never fade.”
Shi Qu’s words immediately aroused thunderous applause from the audience.
Let people understand history, become familiar with history, and spread history, isn’t this antique exchange What’s the original intention of holding this event?
“Mr. Shi, I like this Tong Yan Hui Mo very much and will definitely keep it in my collection.”Cao Zijian also expressed his views
“Just like it.”Cao Zijian smiled and nodded.
“Then I won’t delay the next step.”With that said, Cao Zijian walked towards the audience.
Shi Qu followed closely.
After Cao Zijian got off the stage, Shi Qu suddenly stopped and stopped. Cao Zijian in front said:”Brother Cao, stay here”
“Mr. Shi, is there anything else?”Cao Zijian looked at Shi Qu doubtfully.
“Brother Cao, can I give you some publicity about your live broadcast of treasure appraisal on a certain channel?”Shi Qu opened his mouth and said.
