The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

　　 Kong has decades of experience, but in the games he used in his previous life, there is really no ancient jade that can reach this level! Although the two bronze mirrors are of high grade, similar ones have been seen, bought and collected by myself, and they have also been transferred to friends.

　　 Playing antiques, you can't see a good thing you haven't used before. No matter how experienced you are, the tiny expression on this face is his-mother-uncontrollable!

　　 "In fact, it has nothing to do with money."

　　 said Zhang Nan took the bronze mirror wrapped in newspaper, took out the magical beast mirror, and said: "This mirror will be in Xiangjiang, at least 50,000 Hong Kong dollars!"

　　 "So expensive?"

　　 "There is no one in the Tang Mirror boutique!"

　　 Talking about Zhang Nan, she took it in her own hand and looked at it carefully. It's not enough to look good things once.

　　 looked at it, and suddenly said, "Brother Guan, help me take the reading magnifier in my bag."

　　 sat down in front of the desk in the room and took the note paper and pen on top.

　　 Once the magnifying glass was in his hand, he held the magnifying glass in his left hand and looked down his head carefully, and then started writing on the paper with his right hand.

　　'S writing speed is not fast, Guan Xingquan also curiously stood aside and read the characters on the paper, but Zhang Nan wrote weird traditional characters, which he looked a little strenuous.

　　 It took a long time before Zhang Nan raised his head, pointed at the note full of words, smiled and said, "This is not 50,000, at least 100,000!"

　　 "Because there are words?" Guan Xingquan took the note, and after reading it for a while, he only got a general idea.

　　 "You don't mean that an inscription is 50 to 200 yuan, and these dozens of them are not worth that much, right?"

　　 "Because this inscription is interesting." Zhang Nan smiled.

　　 Bronze ware is sold privately. If the object has an inscription, the price of the text must be included in addition to the price of the object itself.

　　 Depending on the content, the number of characters, and the value of the artifacts, the price of the text is different.

　　 1. The higher the value of the utensil itself, the more valuable the text; 2. The more text, the higher the price per word; 3. The more valuable the text content, the more expensive a single text.

　　Of course, tomb robbers and first and second-hand antique dealers generally only fancy the first two, because few people can understand the inscriptions! Including Zhang Nan.

　　 However, the circle of words on the outer area of ​​this beast mirror is not the inscriptions of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period, but the common script in Tang Dynasty, which Zhang Nan recognized.

I took that piece of paper and said, "These words should be read like this: Huainan starts from Zhao, Renshou is famous. The jade watch is made, and the gold is made. The time is Yongyanjin, Jiemaozhuming. The aid model Jianche, the use seems to be clear. Light. Without loss and fullness, the leaves are not withered and flourished.

　　 This bronze mirror should belong to the category of "Swiss Beast Inscription with 12 Zodiac Mirrors" in the early Tang Dynasty of the Sui Dynasty, that is, the inner area is the Rui Beast pattern, the middle area is the inscription belt, and the outer area is the 12 zodiac pattern and other patterns. "

　　 Zhang Nan pointed out to Guan Xingquan.

"The mirror with the zodiac signs with the zodiac sign with the Rui Beast inscription is the largest and most refined one of the bronze mirrors in the early Tang Dynasty in the Sui Dynasty! Bronze mirrors similar to this bronze mirror were found in Western Qin, Henan, Hunan, and Guangxi provinces. The tombs are all unearthed, but the total number is not large. The tombs are clearly in the early Tang period.

　　 The size, weight, spatial layout, and decoration content of those bronze mirrors are basically the same, but there are some differences in the specific decoration of the inner and outer areas and the content of the mirror inscription.

　　 It can be considered that those bronze mirrors should have a similar background and design concept. "

　　 Guan Xingquan probably understood after hearing this, but there was an important question that had to be asked: "A-Nan, then, what do those words mean?"

"have no idea!"

　　 "What? You don't know?" Guan Xingquan was surprised, listening to Zhang Nan's words, but after a long time, he didn't understand the meaning of these words.

　　 "I am not a professor of ancient Chinese, a professor of history and an authority on Tang culture, I don't know it's normal!"

　　 Zhang Nan feels quite innocent: I'm not a god, so I don't understand everything, this brother Guan thinks too much of himself.

　　 "But to be precise, it's not that I don't understand at all. Those inscriptions say this mirror should be good!"

　　A good mirror? Zhang Nan is guessing literally!

　　"However, this "Huainan" inscription has a source. It is one of the four-character and twelve-sentence inscriptions in the early Tang Dynasty of the Sui Dynasty. Due to the length of the sentences, the bronze mirrors using this inscription are generally larger.

　　 Among the bronze mirrors discovered now, it is rare that the complete twelve-sentence inscription is used, and even fewer are called "four words" between the beginning and the end. As for the meaning of the word "Huainan", it is said that academic circles and archaeological collectors have different opinions.

　　 However, many people think that from the perspective of the style and content characteristics of the mirror inscriptions in the early Tang Dynasty in the Sui Dynasty, "Huainan Rise from Huainan, Renshou Chuanming" should be a way of matching allusions from the Han to Jin Dynasty.

　　 "Huainan" refers to the king of Huainan or the Huainan area. No one knows the specific source. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, the mirror industry in Yangzhou, Huainan, was very developed and the technology was extremely high. The bronze mirrors cast there were sold all over the country.

　　 Combined with Yangzhou’s geography and its position in the history of Sui and Tang dynasties, the word "Huainan" may be related to Yangzhou’s mirror casting industry. "

　　 These words are not nonsense. In the past two decades, he has had several Tang Dynasty bronze mirrors with four-character and twelve-line inscriptions, but they weren’t complete, large in size, and well-preserved.

　　 Speaking of this, Guan Xingquan understood it, but Zhang Nan asked himself again.

　　 Put down the sacred beast mirror, took out the octagonal diamond mirror, and said to himself: "It's weird, isn't this kind of mirror in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, there will be more? So you have trouble with this sacred beast mirror?"

　　 I thought it was something that came out of the same tomb, so I have doubts.

When Guan Xingquan heard this, he disapproved and said, "Why are you going to take care of this? Go to the tomb robber and ask? It's done in his own hands. Besides, I have used something that has been used for hundreds of years, UU Reading www. uukanshu.com It’s not surprising that people from the Tang dynasty used mirrors that have been used for hundreds of years to stuff their coffins."

　　 Zhang Nan gave a thumbs up: "reasonable!"

　　 horny!

　　In your own hands, you don't care where it comes from! It's not archaeology. We can understand the ins and outs of the object if we have the conditions. If we don't have the conditions, we can just grasp it in our own hands.

　　 Guan Xingquan didn’t ask Zhang Nan if he wanted to sell the mirror, although he had friends who were smuggling and had a way to take things out.

　　He understands that Zhang Nan, as long as he has something really good, he belongs to Paixiu, he can only eat it!

　　 "In another 20 years, these two mirrors will be worth millions of dollars."

　　 Zhang Nan knew in his heart, but he didn't sell any bronze mirrors, but kept them in his collection.

　　 Put away the mirror, not even letting go of a stack of post-it notes.

　　 "By the way, Nan, shall we leave tomorrow morning?"

　　 "I will leave tomorrow morning, but I have to stay in Hangzhou for one night the day after tomorrow. I'm going to see a friend."

　　 After speaking for a while, he said, "Going back this time, if my sister's factory procedures are completed, I may need to go to the United States together. Your household registration is still in Jiaojiang, is the whole passport okay?"

　　 "No problem, there is someone from the Public Security Bureau."

　　 "That's good, the visa Americans will help to come forward, the problem is not big. Just a careless person, may spend the New Year in the United States."

　　 "It doesn't matter, I spent the Spring Festival in 1979 in the Vietnamese jungle."

　　 got, another military secret.

　　 At the time of the war, before launching a full-scale offensive, the spy company and the gang might have entered the enemy's depth early. The brother-in-law told Zhang Nan about this, and it was just an open secret.
