Rebirth 13, starting from the big demolition treasure hunt

Chapter 270 Lacquered Gold Stone Buddha

After lunch, we sat for a while. After having nothing to do in the afternoon, Wu Yuansheng planned to go to the road construction area in the demolition area to have a look.

Although it was Christmas, in his mind, it was no different from usual times, he just did what he had to do!

Just as he rode the tricycle and walked more than ten meters away, his cell phone rang.

After taking a look, I saw that it was Master Kong who had sold his ancient bricks and lived near Tangcheng.

No contact for a while, he must have gotten something again.

During demolition, house construction, and road construction, someone may call him at any time every day to ask him to buy items.

He has already sent out more than half of the business cards he printed before.

"Boss Wu, do you have time in the afternoon? I picked up some things while picking up iron recently. If you have time, you can come over and take a look!"

After the call was connected, Master Kong said to him directly.

I will definitely have time in the afternoon for shopping.

The more than 20 complete portrait bricks and more than 50 slightly damaged bricks I bought last time will be a considerable income in another year.

"Yes, please tell me first what you have?"

He asked out of habit.

"There are a lot of them. You'd better come over and take a look. There are also a few bricks!"

Master Kong continued.

"Okay! I'm just getting ready to go out. You can come over now!"

After hanging up the phone, he rode the tricycle back and parked it again, then got into a van and drove towards City X.

If you have bricks, your journey will not be in vain.

Along the way, he could feel the strong Christmas spirit.

This is completely different from seven or eight years ago. At that time, there was no atmosphere on the streets at Christmas.

Worried that he didn't have enough cash in his hand, he stopped the car when passing by a bank and went in to withdraw 5000 yuan.

At this time, pictures of Santa Claus were posted on the glass of the bank door and on the wall inside the house, and a Christmas tree was placed at the door.

After taking the money, he drove the van and continued driving there.

Because it was not the first time to go there and I was familiar with the route there, it took Wu Yuansheng more than 20 minutes to reach the place.

After parking the car and walking into the yard, the two said hello and they started looking at things.

"Boss Wu, you look at the bricks first!"

Master Kong pointed at the 3 complete large bricks and 5 partially damaged bricks on the ground and said to him.

After calling before and confirming that he would come, he had already taken out some of the items for sale.

In addition to bricks, he saw some tiles, two jars, some ceramic tiles and other items.

Among the porcelain pieces, there is a black-glazed goblet that looks very special. The foot is very long, nearly 20 centimeters. Unfortunately, there is a gap in the body of the cup the size of twenty copper coins.

"it is good!"

After saying that, he started to read.

There are three complete large bricks, one of which is a "asking" picture brick, and the other two are lotus pattern bricks.

The so-called asking means that one person stands and asks another person who is meditating. This is what the picture on the brick looks like.

Among the 5 broken pieces, there are 2 bricks with "Flying Immortal Characters" intact on the sides, 1 brick with "incense burner" pattern on the side, 1 brick with crane pattern on the front, and 1 brick with lotus pattern on the front.

Different from the bricks that came with the batch purchased last time, these bricks can be seen at a glance as being found in different places.

The soil and slurry on their surfaces look different.

"Still at the previous price, 100 for the complete character bricks, 50 for the lotus bricks, and 5 for the 150 broken bricks. These bricks cost 300 yuan in total, how about it?"

After reading it, Wu Yuansheng said to him.

"Okay! Then it's 300. You can take a look at the tiles, jars, and porcelain tiles next to you. After you've finished, I'll bring out the things for you to look at."

Master Kong didn’t hesitate much and readily agreed.

He said he would get the things later, but it seemed that the items he took out were not the best ones he thought he had picked up. There are 13 tiles, 4 of which are slightly damaged at the edges. These decorations are different and are from different periods. The earliest ones are from the Han Dynasty and the latest ones are from the Qing Dynasty.

Here in X City District, as long as you dig the soil inside and outside the ancient city, you will find such tiles in many places.

The two jars are one large and one small. The larger one is about one foot high. They have a plain face and no ears. They are made of gray pottery and should date to the Qing Dynasty.

The other one is smaller, about 20 centimeters high, and is made of ceramic. Most of the surface of the jar is covered with green glaze, like a jar.

I took it in my hand and looked at it. It was very thick and heavy.

This year looks earlier, like an object from the Yuan Dynasty.

Both jars are complete.

There are twenty or thirty kilograms of porcelain pieces. In addition to the special black-glazed goblet I saw before, there are two plates and a porcelain bowl that is only slightly damaged.

One of the plates is from Longquan kiln, the other is from blue and white porcelain, and the porcelain bowl is from solid-color celadon, which is very ordinary.

When the porcelain is broken, most of it can only be used as specimens.

After reading it, they discussed the price, 200 yuan for the tile together, 150 yuan for the two jars, and 200 yuan for the porcelain pieces.

In fact, the value of these things is much worse than bricks, but when you go out to buy items, you have to buy some of them.

After paying him 850 yuan, Wu Yuansheng took them all on the tricycle.

"Boss Wu, look at these things again!"

When he finished placing the bricks and other items he just bought, Master Kong took some more copper coins, a bronze mirror, and an incense burner and came out and said to him.

Without looking at the coins first, he took the round bronze mirror on the ground and looked at it.

The mirror is quite large, about 20 centimeters in diameter. It has a pattern of flowers and birds on the front. There are some rust stains on the surface, but the rust is not severe. It is in good condition.

Putting down the bronze mirror, he looked at the incense burner again.

The incense burner is made of celadon from the Hutian kiln, with a plain surface and no decorations. It is about 12 centimeters high, with a maximum diameter of about 10 centimeters, and has three legs and two ears.

One of the ears is slightly damaged. Judging from the age, it looks like it was from the Ming Dynasty.

There are forty or fifty copper coins, most of which are from the Song Dynasty. There are a few from other periods. There is a "Daguan Tongbao" that can be discounted for ten bucks. The other coins are worthless.

After reading it, they discussed the price. The bronze mirror and incense burner together cost 1100 yuan, and the coins together cost 400 yuan.

The main reason is the price of the large bronze mirror. Master Kong said it costs 900 yuan.

He spent another 1500 yuan on these.

"Are there any other objects?"

When he picked up the bronze mirror, incense burner and copper coins and prepared to put them in the car, Wu Yuansheng asked him again.

"And one last big one!"

After Master Kong finished speaking, he turned around and went back to the house.

He also took his things and went to the van.

When he put away the items and walked into the yard again, Master Kong had already taken out what he said was "the last big thing."

Wu Yuansheng took a look and saw that it was a Buddha statue, sitting cross-legged on a lotus platform, with the fingers of his right hand pointing upward and his left hand naturally resting on his lap.

The Buddha statue is relatively large, about half a meter high, and some parts of its surface are tinged with gold, as if it had been gilded.

Taking a closer look, he found that the Buddha statue was made of stone. Just now, looking at the golden color on the surface, he thought it was made of copper.

After careful inspection, the gold exposed was not gilded, but was painted with golden paint.

It turned out to be a lacquered stone Buddha statue.

Lacquer gold is different from gilding. Lacquer gold is generally painted on non-metallic objects, such as wood products, stone products, glass products, etc.

Gilt is generally gilded on the surface of metal objects.
