Chapter 255 Chapter 254 Seal Stone

"Teacher Tang, it was me who took the liberty when we were in Qinghe. Thank you for not giving up and being willing to help. I saw that you didn't have a seal, so I found a seal stone. It didn't cost much, so don't give up." Cheng Hai and Tang Zhitong After chatting for a while, before leaving, he took out a small stone from his trouser pocket and stuffed it into Tang Zhitong's hand.

"Brother Cheng, we're out, so I just handed him a message and didn't intend to accept anything." Tang Zhitong refused to accept it and pushed it back.

"It's your kindness that you don't want to accept it. It's because I'm ignorant if I don't give it away. You can't let me live my life like a dog, right?" Cheng Hai's attitude was very firm. He took Tang Zhitong's hand and patted it directly. In the palm of your hand.

"Okay, then I'll accept it." Cheng Hai said that for this reason, Tang Zhitong could only accept it. He was honest and didn't expect anyone to give him a gift on this day.

"Then I can go back to work with peace of mind. Teacher Tang, please stay." Cheng Hai gave a thank you gift, relaxed, and said goodbye to Tang Zhitong and went out.

Tang Zhitong sent Cheng Hai off, returned to the empty office, took out the seal stone Cheng Hai gave and looked at it.

The seal stone is a small piece, and the color looks like beeswax, which is pleasing to the eye.

What is this material called? Tang Zhitong didn't think about it for a moment and planned to go back and ask someone.

Tang Zhitong does not have a seal. He used to sign it and was planning to engrave one.

Most personal seals these days are made of wood or celluloid.

Celluloid is a type of plastic, mostly yellow cuboids, with some flowers and plants carved on the outside, and a few strokes of graceful and elegant shapes.

Punch a small hole at the top and hang it on the key chain, which not only replaces a personal signature, but also serves as an ornament.

The inscriptions below the seal are mostly in Yang inscription, and the fonts are mainly imitation of the Song Dynasty.

Speaking of imitating the Song Dynasty, I have to mention that the imitation Song style was not created by a certain company, but was a regular script developed by Ding Fuzhi and Ding San after the two brothers processed and designed it.

This font was uniformly modified to imitate Ouyang Xun's calligraphy style. Since the prototypes of the fonts were all from Song Dynasty books, the brothers named this font "Fake Song Ou Style".

At the same time, they also named the movable type printing format that imitated the Song Dynasty printing book format using this font as the core technology, calling it "Juzhen imitation Song Dynasty printing style".

Putting away the seal stone, Tang Zhitong thought about Cheng Hai. He was very interesting and attentive. It was very similar to a joke he had heard.

“After a salesperson visited the customer, he called the customer again: Mr.

Mr. X: How did you know I had a cold?

Sales: When I visited you just now, you smoked from only one nostril.

Mr. X: Come sign the order tomorrow! "

Although it is a joke, if you pay attention to such small details and be good at using them, you can often achieve miraculous results.

"Master Tang, the waxing is done. Shall we clean up and go to the lumber factory?" Master Qiao and several apprentices carried tables and chairs to Tang Zhitong's office, knocked on the door and asked.

"Okay, sorry to bother everyone. I'll say hello to Section Chief Fang, and we'll be right over." Tang Zhitong glanced outside and saw that the machine had already been loaded onto the ground train and seemed to be waiting for him.

Since the finance department office has not yet been tidied up, the money and accounts are still temporarily kept by Fangyuan.

Tang Zhitong went to Fangyuan's office to explain the situation, took out the money, got on his bicycle, and arrived at the lumber factory ahead of Master Qiao and the others. "Here, let's try the abacus." When Zhang Gong saw Tang Zhitong, he didn't mention the wages and took out the abacus first.

"Oh, the material is good. Take advantage of it. The workmanship is great!" Tang Zhitong tried it on and was very satisfied. It is made of mahogany and has been specially waxed. This time, the lumber factory gave it beads, each of which must be four centimeters. After a few decades, take them out and string them together, making them look like precious objects.

Nowadays, there are not many people who use mahogany, huanghuali, and golden phoebe beads, because beads have not yet become popular.

The popularity of Wenwan beads is a behavior driven by profit. Large materials are scarce and small materials cannot be sold at high prices. Merchants are trying to figure out how to maximize profits, so they have beads.

This is like the combination of coffee and wine. The wine must be valued at a high price, but the consumer group is already saturated. In order to make the financial report look better, I found an opportunity to break up the wine and sell it in small portions.

Of course, this kind of behavior also has an element of tasting. It does not cost the winery’s promotion expenses, and it also gives the target group an opportunity to be exposed to the flavor of sauce. Once customers convert later, it is pure profit.

"As long as you are satisfied. Can you settle the expenses?" Zhang Bo was happy to see that Tang Zhitong was satisfied. For this plan, the lumber factory also put in a lot of effort, rummaging through boxes and cabinets to find some scraps and scraped together a set.

"Sure, let's do the math. I brought the money." Tang Zhitong replied with a grin.

Zhang Bo also has his own abacus, which is made of ordinary material, but after years of use, the beads of the abacus are coated with pulp, and after a few clicks, the expenses are quickly calculated.

Tang Zhitong didn't say anything and directly issued the invoice and paid the money.

The price of the abacus was paid extra by Tang Zhitong. The price was very affordable. The two of them had a tacit understanding and no one mentioned it.

On the way back to the escort department from the lumber factory, Tang Zhitong turned a corner and stopped by Liulichang.

This place used to be called Haiwang Village. When Kyoto was restructured in the Ming Dynasty, Haiwang Village was enclosed in the inner city. Probably the villagers of Haiwang Village were the first batch of demolition households in the Ming Dynasty.

After the demolition of Haiwang Village, the Ministry of Industry built a glazed kiln here to manufacture five-color glazed tiles. It became one of the five major factories of the Ministry of Industry at that time (the Shenmu Factory mentioned earlier was also one of the five major factories), and gradually the name "Liulichang" came into being. Changdian" name.

After the development in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the Liulichang area gradually formed a market for selling antiques, books, calligraphy and paintings, inscriptions, and southern paper.

After liberation, the nature of Liulichang did not change, but the products became more diverse.

During the joint venture a few years ago, each antique shop established different sales departments for modern calligraphy and painting, historical calligraphy and painting, modern porcelain, historical porcelain, epigraphy, stone ceramics, and ancient ink on inscriptions and inscriptions.

There is also an antique repair, processing and reproduction department here, which specializes in repairing damaged items and producing reproductions. Well, producing reproductions. Are you surprised or not?

Jade seal carving and ink pads are both part of cultural entertainment, so jade seal carving also has a business place here. It is called the "First Engraving Cooperative" and Mr. Chen Shushi is in charge.

The famous Eight Treasures Ink Pad is also sold here, the kind made by Mr. Wei Changqing himself.

Tang Zhitong's goal here is the first engraving cooperative. Not only does it engrave characters, it also sells various seal stones. You can find someone here to simply identify the authenticity and compare prices.

Just ask, hand over a cigarette, no consultation fee required.

Some people may ask, why not go to a cultural relics store? It should be more comprehensive and professional.

Tang Zhitong knew nothing about this because the famous cultural relics store had not yet been established.
