A treasure-appraisal maniac

The Robert family highly affirmed Lu Fei's restoration skills, but considering the importance of the handed down sword, they still did not dare to bring the sword to China.

Lu Fei spread his hands and said helplessly.

"That's a pity. It seems I can only help you when I have the opportunity to go to the United States."

Wade smiled and said. ??

"It doesn't matter. As long as you are here, repairing the sword is just a matter of time. We can afford to wait."

"By the way Fei, have you brought the Bible? I can't wait."

"hehe!"

"The Bible was delivered last night, what about my things?" Lu Fei asked.

"Of course, I would never lie to a friend."

Wade said and waved, and the black bodyguard brought over a large lockbox.

The box opened and Wade took out an antique mahogany box that was sixty centimeters long and thirty-five centimeters wide.

Seeing this box, Lu Fei couldn't help but frowned.

It was agreed that the five treasures would be exchanged for the Bible, but all Wade took out was this wooden box.

The length of this box is not small, but the space is limited after all.

How can such a small space hold five treasures?

Could it be that this grandson wants to change his mind?

"Just this one box?"

"Isn't it agreed that five will be exchanged for one?" Lu Fei asked.

Wade rubbed his hands and said.

"Yes my friend, all five treasures are in the box."

"These five treasures were personally selected by our father and delivered by special plane overnight. They are definitely good things."

"My father said you will like it."

"Because no collector in China can refuse the temptation of these five treasures."

"hehe!"

Lu Fei doubtfully picked up the box, holding it very lightly. It should be an object like calligraphy and painting.

If it were really calligraphy and painting, that would be so cool.

Not to mention five pieces, even one rare painting and calligraphy would make a lot of money.

Opening the box gently, there is an object wrapped in blue silk. It is neatly stacked and has sharp edges. It smells of strong ink. It should be a book.

Something like that.

Thinking of this, Lu Fei became even more excited.

Holding the corner of the blue silk, he slowly pulled it away, and faced a piece of yellow silk wrapped around his head. Lu Fei's blood surged and his nerves were stretched to the limit.

Then with another shake of his hand, all the blue silk at the top was torn apart.

When he saw clearly what was inside, Lu Fei could no longer hide his excitement and stood up without even caring about the bone injuries on his feet.

""Yongle Dadian"?"

boom--

Seeing these four words, Lu Fei's brain exploded instantly, the blood all over his body rushed like the Yellow River bursting its banks, and every muscle twitched involuntarily.

"Gloves!"

Lu Fei stared at the "Yongle Dian" in the box and gave orders to Chen Xiang beside him.

The gloves were in Lu Fei's pocket, easily accessible but unaware of them.

Chen Xiang could see Lu Fei's excitement and did not prompt him. Instead, he took out the gloves and quickly handed them to Lu Fei's hands.

Putting on his gloves in a few seconds, Lu Fei carefully took out the "Yongle Dadian". Looking at the volume below, there was actually a "Yongle Dadian", and it was a continuous volume.

Take out the second volume, and the bottom is still there.

There are five volumes of "Yongle Dadian" in total, and they are five consecutive volumes.

After taking out all five volumes, Lu Fei was so excited that he almost flew up.

Pick up the first volume of "Yongle Dadian" and check the authenticity carefully.

Fifty centimeters high and thirty centimeters wide, yes.

It's wrapped in yellow silk and framed with multiple layers of rice paper, yes.

There is a rectangular bookmark stuck to the upper left corner of the front of the book jacket, with the four words "Yongle Dadian" inscribed inside the frame, and two lines of small characters below the words indicating the number of volumes of the book.

The format and font of the book label are also correct.

If you open the end of the volume of "Yongle Dadian", you can see that the entire Dadian is written in red and ink.

The ink pen is mainly used to draw border lines and write quotations from books.

The author and title of the book.

The ink pen is used to write the title, volume number, rhyme, text of the book and draw pictures.

The circles are stamped with a pen tube made of reed, bamboo, bone or jade with a hollow inside and a round outside, dipped in cinnabar ink.

The overall look is dignified and beautiful, with bright red ink.

Right, right, totally fucking right.

Oh My God!

My Tathagata Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva!

This is actually an authentic copy of "Yongle Dadian", and it is in five volumes, or five consecutive volumes. Oh my god, it's so awesome!

After confirming that these five volumes of "Yongle Dadian" were authentic copies, Lu Fei lost his temper.

No, to be precise, Lu Fei lost his composure from the first moment he saw "Yongle Dadian".

An unprecedented gaffe.

And he lost his temper in front of two foreigners.

It was so embarrassing, but Lu Fei couldn't care less about these trivial matters.

At this moment, Lu Fei's brain was empty, and Lu Fei was the only one in the entire thinking space, as if he had reached the highest level of cultivation.

Lu Fei couldn't calm down at all, because this was the "Yongle Ceremony"!

Yongle Dadian, Yongle Dadian, Yongle Dadian.

Important things must be said three times.

Some people would ask what "Yongle Dadian" is?

Then Lu Fei will tell you.

"Yongle Dadian" is the most famous ancient classic in China and the largest encyclopedia in the world so far.

"Yongle Dadian" preserves countless Chinese history and geography, literature and art, philosophy, religion and other encyclopedia documents before the 14th century.

Compared with the encyclopedia compiled by France Diderot and the British "Encyclopedia Britannica", it is more than 300 years earlier.

During the revision process of "Yongle Dadian", no modifications were made to the included books, and an all-inclusive approach was adopted to maintain the original content of the books.

Its comprehensive content and authenticity can instantly reveal several five links of the "Sikuquanshu" that Emperor Qianlong was most proud of.

Not only that, "Yongle Dadian"

Several world records were also set.

"Yongle Dadian" has a total of 22,937 volumes, which is the largest in the world.

More than 370 million words have been recorded in handwriting, which is also the most in the world.

More than 21,000 people from both the government and the public were mobilized, and it took six years to build it. It is also the best in the world.

The entire "Yongle Dadian" is divided into two parts.

In the 21st year of Hongwu's reign, Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to compile an encyclopedia and discussed "editing the words of hundreds of classics and historians into Lei Yao", but failed and gave up.

After Zhu Di, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, came to the throne, in order to organize knowledge, he ordered Xie Jin and others to compile books.

Purpose of compilation: "All the books on classics and history since the time of the Book of Deeds have been collected from hundreds of schools of thought. As for astronomy, geographies, yin and yang, medical divination, monks' Taoism, and craftsmanship, they have been compiled into one book. It is not tiring to be voluminous!"

It was first written into a book in the second year of Yongle (1404), and was initially named "Integrated Documents".

However, after reading it, Zhu Di felt that "the compilation was still unprepared" and he was not very satisfied.

In the third year of Yongle (1405), he ordered the prince's young masters Yao Guangxiao, Xie Jin, Zheng Ci, the Minister of Rites, to supervise the construction, and Liu Jichi and others to renovate it.

The draft was finalized and submitted in the fifth year of Yongle reign. Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty was very satisfied with it and wrote the preface himself and named it "Yongle Dadian". It was not officially completed until the winter of the sixth year of Yongle reign in the Qing Dynasty.

After the compilation of "Yongle Dadian" was completed during the Yongle period, only one copy was copied, called the "Yongle Original Edition".

During the Jiajing period, fearing that the ceremony would be damaged, a new version was made, called the "Jiajing copy".

Because the two canons were hidden deep in the palace, unprinted, and rarely circulated. They were stolen, robbed, and burned during the changes of dynasties and internal and external troubles. The originals have long since disappeared. Some people say that the originals and Zhu Di were buried in Changling, but this is all There is no way to verify whether folklore is true or not.

There are only more than 400 copies of Emperor Jiajing's re-recordings circulating in the world, and they are distributed all over the world. There are only more than 70 copies in such a huge China, and more than 90% of them are fragments.

This shows how precious the intact five-volume copy of "Yongle Dadian" in front of Lu Fei is.
