C2621 The Universe Is Hidden in the Universe(part Iii)
Liang Yuan'er took a look at the introduction. Although the story of this thing was very good and it was often fabricated for its owner, some treasures that were passed down in an orderly manner were real and could be used as ID cards.
The wood was the little red sandalwood. According to the introduction, this Eight Immortals Table... It flowed out of Li Hong Zhang's mansion. Of course, this could be used as a story. There was no name written on it. It was either that Li Hongzhang had used it before or Zuo Zongtang had used it before. It was fine to say that Zeng Guofan had used it before.
Everything in the exhibition hall could be sold. The Cave Man Club at the top of the mountain was for sale. After Dongfang Qingyu paid the bill, this set of furniture was his.
In the exhibition hall, the transaction was very normal. No one was surprised, but when Dongfang Qingyu wanted to take down the chair, many people were curious and stared at them.
"What are you trying to do?" Ren Yuanwu had appeared behind them at some point in time.
"Uncle Ren, Qingyu said that he suspected there was a mystery behind the chair's legs. He wanted to take it down and take a look." Lin Huo replied.
"What mystery? Where did you find it?" Ren Yuanwu asked Dongfang Qingyu.
"Different weight." Dongfang Qingyu said.
"This is not worth mentioning. If you put it together, or replace it with new ones or fill it up, it will cause different weight," Wang Yao said. Ren Yuanwu knew from the beginning that he was very knowledgeable about furniture.
"This is the structure of the mortuary!" Dongfang Qingyu said.
"With this?" Ren Yuanwu's heart skipped a beat. He naturally knew about the structure of the mortuary. The ancient buildings in China were mainly made of wood and bricks. The wood structure was the main structure, and it was built from pillars, beams, and other main components. The nodes between each component were matched with the mantises and the mantises, forming a flexible framework.
The tenon mortification was an extremely delicate invention. This kind of component connection method... It made the traditional wooden structure of China become a special soft structure that surpassed the current architectural arrangement, frame, or rigid frame. Not only could it withstand a larger load, but it could also be used as a support system. Under the earthquake load, the deformation could offset a certain amount of seismic energy. It would reduce the earthquake response of the structure.
The mortifying structure is the great crystallization of our country's ancient buildings, we don't need nails. Just relying on the structure of the mortuary structure to support several tens of meters. The hundred meter tall buildings, pagodas, and mortuary structures are not only used on wooden buildings. Some of the stone buildings also used this technique. In some cities that were not affected by the flames of war, one could see a scale and a half claw, which had been there for hundreds of years. This showed how magical the tenon mortification structure was.
The place where the structure of the mortuary was most commonly used was the Forbidden City, as well as some Buddhist pagodas and furniture. It could not display the magical structure of the mortuary. Many people were used to it and were used to it.
Dongfang Qingyu's judgment was reasonable. The structure of the mantises had a special characteristic, which was that it could be disassembled and reorganized. It would not cause any harm to the main body. This was not like a nail being fixed. A hole was left after the nail was removed.
The four legs of the chair could be removed. If it was real, it was impossible to make a mistake in weight. For something worth more than ten million dollars, if a person tried his best, there might be a few errors. However, a few kilograms was enough for people to notice it. This was impossible.
Of course, there was also the possibility that the person who fabricated it was not professional. However, if this alone was enough to determine that there was a mystery in the chair, it would be too inconceivable.
If it were him, he would definitely not tear down the chair. If he made a mistake, the value of this set of furniture would immediately drop.
"And my intuition." There were some things that he could not say out loud. His constitution had been strengthened, and he was different from ordinary people. He could sense things that ordinary people couldn't.
Through the weight, touch, echo, and so on and so forth, he suspected that there was more than just filling it up. There should be something hidden inside. These things could not be proved, but even if he guessed wrong, he could still afford to lose.
If he guessed correctly, Lin Huo Huo's bet would basically be stable.
"Find a professional person to tear it down. The chair was broken." Ren Yuanwu asked the staff to bring the chair to a special room to deal with it. At the same time, he told the professional carpenter to come over.
These talents were all kept by the Cave Man Club on the Peak. They had to come over with just a phone call. Because of today's event, all sorts of talents were on standby in the club.
When Dongfang Qingyu and the others entered the room, the carpenter was already waiting for them in the room. The carpenter was very familiar with his movements. He finished it in ten minutes and removed his leg. After removing his leg, he immediately discovered the problem.
There was a straight cut on the structure of the mortuary. It was obvious that it was manually processed and not broken by external forces. The cut was in a concave shape. The crack was like a strand of hair, extremely fine. If one did not look carefully, it would not be easy to see it.
The carpenter used tools to carefully pry open the cut bit by bit. Because he was worried that he would break the chair's legs, the carpenter's movements were very careful. Another point, from the shape of the cut, was that it was embedded. It was easy to stuff it in, but difficult to take it out. Lin Huo Huo Huo and Liang Yuan'er widened their beautiful eyes. They looked very carefully.
It took less than ten minutes to disassemble the chair legs. They rode the wooden stopper out and used about half an hour to finally take it out. Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"There's something!" Ren Yuanwu was pleasantly surprised. The wooden stopper was black. To be precise, the wooden cork was also from the little red sandalwood. It was dyed black outside. He could tell at a glance that it was charcoal. What was the effect of charcoal? Naturally, it was not burning to keep warm, but acting as a dryer.
What could require such meticulous maintenance? There was only one answer: Treasure!
The carpenter poured out the charcoal in the chair's leg bit by bit. When it was half poured out, it revealed a white object. Liang Yuan'er had sharp eyes and shouted, "There's something!"
There really was something! Ren Yuanwu did not care about his identity and squatted down with the carpenter. He carefully took out the white thing. Because they were worried about damaging the item, both of them were very careful. During this process, black carbon powder kept falling. The carbon powder was very thin and it was very durable. The two of them used about 20 minutes. Only then did they take it out.
It was cylindrical, not hard, and was slightly soft. It had a certain shape, with a diameter of 1.5 centimeters and a length of about 35 or 36 centimeters.
The four of them, no, Jian Jia also woke up. She didn't cry, and looked at all of this curiously with her black and shiny eyes. The object was wrapped in a very thin layer of oil-paper to prevent it from being blackened by charcoal.
Ren Yuanwu found a thin brush and quickly cleaned the charcoal particles on the oil-paper. He let it be placed on a white cotton cloth. He looked at Dongfang Qingyu and asked, "Do you want to open it?"
"Open it!" Dongfang Qingyu said.
Ren Yuanwu did not make any rash moves. He changed into a pair of white gloves and turned on the lamp. Then he started to work. He took off the oil paper on the outside and revealed the paper underneath.
It was a painting or a book.
Ren Yuanwu put the oil paper aside and changed a new piece of cotton cloth on the ground. Then, he slowly opened the book. His movements were obviously much slower than before. It was as if he was holding a drop of water on a lotus leaf. If he was not careful, he would drop it.
Finally, when it was fully unfolded, a calligraphy piece appeared in front of everyone. When Ren Yuanwu's gaze shifted to the seal, he gasped and cried out involuntarily, "Su Dongpo!"
"Su Shi? Is this Su Shi's work?" Liang Yuan'er exclaimed.
"Is it true?" Dongfang Qingyu was more concerned about this.
"Don't argue first. Let me take a look." Ren Yuanwu took out a pair of reading glasses and looked at it carefully. It was very slow. The more he looked, the more excited and excited he looked. He muttered something to himself.
"The structure of the work is tightly structured and completed in one go. It is composed with a brush and rough and powerful. It fully shows Su Shi's humanitarian feelings. This is the Stone Rock Invitation. It was gifted to someone by Su Dongpo. "
When he finished reading the last word, Ren Yuanwu sighed with emotion. "Beautiful, lucky. This post was thought to have been snatched by Japan. I didn't expect it to be preserved in such a way. Too lucky."
"Is it the authentic work of Su Dongpo?" Dongfang Qingyu asked again.
"Although I only have half a bucket of water for calligraphy, I can be sure that this is the authentic work. If it was a fake book, there was no need to spend so much effort to hide it." Ren Yuanwu said.
"That's great!" Lin Huo Huo finally felt relieved.
"Uncle Ren, how much do you think it's worth?" Liang Yuan'er asked.
"This... About twelve years ago or thirteen years ago, I don't remember clearly. A similar piece of work was spread out by Su Dongpo, and it was sold by a private seller. You should have heard of it before, it was collected by the head of Northern Wasteland. However, the transaction price is more than 3.8 million. The price of this piece should be between 40 to 50 million. " Ren Yuanwu said.
"That's great!" Liang Yuan'er was happy for Lin Huo Hua. Basically, she was certain that Lin Huo Hua had won this round.
"What do you plan to do with these words?" Ren Yuanwu asked Dongfang Qingyu.
"This... keep it." He did not lack money now. Su Dongpo's works could only be chanced upon by luck. Basically, he could confirm that it was real. He would not relax.
"I know about the big event of framing. If you trust me... I'll send it over to frame." Ren Yuanwu said that the words were originally framed. But in order to stuff it into the legs of the chair, the frame was removed. It had to be reframed, or else it would be very easy to break.
"Then I'll have to trouble Uncle Ren!" Dongfang Qingyu followed behind Lin Huo Huo and shouted. Ren Yuanwu's character was still trustworthy. Besides, he gave the Buddhist beads to Jian Jia because of him. Even if he wanted to take it away, he would not say anything.
"It's not troublesome. It is my honor to see such a letter come into being. It is the fortune of the Heavenly Dynasty that such a letter did not flow to Japan." Ren Yuanwu was not young anymore. But as for the loss of so many cultural relics back then... He was still brooding over it.
The Corn's luck was at its peak, and it was auctioned off for a letter. During the period of the Republic of China, the letter of Master Wang Guowei, his letter... Naturally, it had a very high value. However, this letter... There was no signature, no indication of who it was written to. The value was fixed. Coincidentally, there was a reply letter hidden in the Corn's house, which corresponded to the letter. The value of this letter was immediately shown.
It was a bit of a trick, but it was still considered a good bargain.
The Corn excitedly found Lin Huo Huo Huo, looking proud and arrogant, as if it was a winner. In the end, she was hit by a Sap head-on, almost causing her eyes to turn black.
"Su Dongpo, how is that possible?"
