The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

　　 Comrade Wang Debiao probably went to Nanxun before, and saw those wealthy old houses in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. As a result, when the manor project was carried out, combined with the previous design drawings, some minor changes were made for reference.

　　 Lake @州, one of the three lower governments in Jiangnan Province, has always been called "Da Nanxun Town, Little Huzhou @府".

　　 The total wealth of a town in Nanxun that year actually far exceeds the entire lake @州府 except Nanxun!

　　Charlize Theron has a hint of curiosity. Zhang Nan simply said a few words about how rich the family that can be called a rich man by his brother.

　　 I don’t know, I’m surprised when I say it!

　　 In the old days, the Nanxun people used the size of the animal's size to measure the property of a family. Those with a family property of more than 10 million taels were called elephants, those with more than 5 million taels were called cows, and those with more than 1 million taels were called dogs.

　　 bad luck, less than a million two worth, not even a dog...

　　 In modern terms, it is that in Nanxun that year, you didn't have hundreds of millions of fortunes, and you didn't even have the qualifications to be called a dog by others!

what!

Jeollanam-do has four elephants, eight cows and seventy-two golden dogs. It is a town of super wealth: the total property of these 84 households alone is estimated to be more than 150 million taels of silver, not counting the other "continuous dogs". It’s not as good as that.

　　 What was the total fiscal revenue of the Qing government in a year at that time?

　　 Nanxun is really an enemy country!

　　 And this is the most conservative estimate. Like the top four elephants, the wealth actually exceeds 10 million taels.

　　 "Typical tyrant, real tyrant!" Charlie had to admire.

　　 Considering price changes combined with the current currency value, an elephant is actually worth several billion yuan, but it is really incredible to accumulate such wealth in an agricultural society.

　　 But the girl couldn't help laughing when she thought of that "not as good as a dog".

　　 "Why don't the people in that town replace dogs with sheep, or other animals, it sounds better than calling dogs."

　　 To this girl’s thought, Zhang Nan had to say: “Who knows, customs are different in different places. It’s not surprising that we still named our children cats and dogs in the 1950s.

　　 Brother-in-law’s home village also has a man named Zhang Piao, who is still brother-in-law’s elementary school classmate..."

　　Walking while talking, didn't enter the Basho Hall house, this would be a walk, I didn't want to enter the house.

In the garden outside the Basho Hall, there is a hexagonal pavilion built on a slightly higher terrain, two passages, and the remaining four sides are repaired into benches with backrests. In the eyes of the bodyguards, there is also a round white stone table and matching facilities. Four stone benches with a slightly bulging middle.

　　 It’s rare to be a little windy, so I won’t leave, just sit here for a while and let the waiter tell the waiter to bring some drinks.

　　 This is at home, telling a few bodyguards to find a place to sit down, don't stay there and get the eyes out.

　　 Wipe the stool with a napkin, it is not very dirty, occasionally a friend wipes it.

　　 Zhang Nan and Charlie sat on the stools, a bit cold and very comfortable.

　　 This set of table and stools was only made last year. The tabletop and stools are polished, and there are handmade bas-reliefs in other places, which are very fine when you look carefully.

　　 The stool is not small in size. The round table top with a diameter of nearly one meter can be more than ten centimeters thick. The total weight of this set is definitely more than 1500 jins, even two thousand jins!

　　 Nikola Varuyev felt that this set of stone tables and stools was very beautiful, the more they looked at it, the more fascinating they were. Zhang Nan looked at them a little curious and told a few people that this is not an ordinary stone.

　　 Charlie knows that this garden table is not easy!

　　 "This material is Hetian jade produced in Xijiang, China, and it is between No. 2 White and No. 1 White..."

　　 explained a little bit what is called "jihaobai", and the difference between different materials and Tianyu.

　　"Two of the four stools are made of seeds dug from the riverbank, and two are made of mountain materials.

　　This table also uses the best mountain materials. Can you tell which two stool materials are different from the others? "

　　 The Mark brothers know what Hetian jade is, but they don’t understand it. They only know Nicholas and they don’t know anything about Chinese jade!

　　 I don’t know what Hetian jade is, and I don’t even understand the difference between mountain materials, seed materials, and mountains and flowing water.

　　 The boss called to distinguish, then look at it.

　　 after a while...

　　 Guess!

　　 There is no difference at all.

　　 Nowadays, Hetian jade has not reached the level of hard-to-find seeds, but it is becoming scarcer, and huge, high-quality seeds are even rarer.

The creation of this set of tables and stools is of course Zhang Nan’s “creative”: when his brother-in-law was chatting the previous year, he told him that when a group of jade carving masters made jade ornaments and materials for several of his manors and castles, they found that the two pieces were similar in shape. , Giant white jade seed material with almost the same texture.

　　 Research and study, and I really can’t figure out what works are better at once — it’s best to be in pairs, and it’s hard to decide.

　　Material baby, pairs are even more rare, the body shape and texture are similar to this knife but also save material.

　　 As soon as Zhang Nan, who was in the United States at the time, heard about this, he was free to send a fax photo from Sunan.

　　 After seeing the photo and understanding the size and size of the jade material, he just said: "I think it looks like two cobblestone stools, so don't think about carving a big vase or a big bucket. You can make two stools.

　　East design, west design, and I still think about how to save materials and make rational use. I think this solid round stool bas-relief is the most economical, and nothing else can compare!

　　Also, look for two more similar ones. If you can't bear the seed material~www.wuxiaspot.com~ then you can make do with the mountains and rivers, and give me the jade table and stool placed in the garden pavilion.

　　 By the way, I want a whole round panel for the table top, thicker, just put together the pillars underneath, don’t lay it out! "

　　 Anyway, there are materials, so I know how much I have.

　　 Seed material has a single super-big guy of a few tons, let alone those mountain materials. Back then, it was just a few trains of skins, all of which were good!

　　 The high-quality mountain materials are all big ones, so when they were young, they didn't need it at all.

　　Don't want anything with poor quality, at least the second-level white jade is up.

　　 This set of tables and stools is said to be between No. 2 White and No. 1 White. That was the division method seven or eight years ago. According to the current classification, it is estimated to be No. 1 White.

　　 As for another ten or twenty years...

　　 It is estimated that you have to lean up.

　　 The boss said, those masters have no right to object.

　　 And even though this idea seems bad, it seems to make sense if you think about it carefully: Save materials!

　　 There are two stools, it is impossible to reuse other seed materials, and the masters absolutely refuse to choose, otherwise it is too unreasonable!

　　 Qianlong probably didn't play much before!

　　 Choose to choose, and finally come up with such a set.

　　 If one person does it alone, let alone a few months, it may not be completed in a few years.

　　 The five masters each bring their apprentices, each of whom divides the work, and by the way, compare their bas-relief skills.

　　 The boss said that you don’t need to do it alone, and you have to deliver the goods within one year.

　　 Just like that, high-grade Hetian jade seeds and mountain materials are cut and carved, and a set of garden "stone benches and tables" with non-splicing craftsmanship has appeared. The actual use of tools is unprecedented in history, and it is estimated that there will be no newcomers!
