The Book of Appreciation

The next day, Wu Di didn't get up lazily until the sun was three poles. The matter of Yuxi was settled, and the matter of Qinglonghui was also settled, and the rest...the rest seemed to be all right?Then make money quickly, and work hard in the direction of emptying the video store!

He had just rushed to Gambling Stone Street in Ueno, when he received a call from his master, the things had been safely delivered to him, and he was trying to find a way to take out the Amazono Cloud Sword inside. .

Wu Di stepped into the gate of Matian Company with a smile, and ordered them to send the wool purchased yesterday to the Calcium Factory, and then began to sweep from house to house.

There are a total of eleven shops, and it took him most of the day. In the end, the wool piled up in the calcination factory was like a hill.

All the bosses in Gambling Stone Street were very happy. A guy from China is a fool with a lot of money. Buying raw materials is like buying fruit, and he is not picky!This kind of opportunity is not so easy to come across!

So, under their warm invitation, Wu Di visited at least five so-called secret warehouses and three so-called treasure rooms. In the end, more and more materials made him have to consider whether he really wanted to explain the stone here in public. up.

Forget it, he has always been a good person, and his greatest ambition is to be kind to others. If all these woolen things are untied in public here, will these bosses vomit blood and die one by one?

It's convenient for others and convenient for yourself, so just spend some shipping fees, and let's talk about it after shipping it back to China!

"That's right, fifth brother, if you come back like this, they will still treat you as the God of Wealth, otherwise...""

Wu Di glanced at the big bag in Zhang Fei's hand, and laughed like a toad crawling on a swan.

"Actually, it's mainly because they are too enthusiastic. All the treasures they have treasured for many years have been given to me. How can I be ashamed to do everything? Military division, you can't count, how many plates did they give us in total? How many are VCDs, how many DVDs? Suoga, now I even saved the money to go to the video store..."

As soon as I got back to the hotel, Matsushita Takeishi's call arrived.

"Master Wu, I'm sorry, I've been really busy these days. Are you still in Tokyo? I'll spare half an hour for you tomorrow morning. You can come over."

"Oh, that's it. I have an appointment with a friend to go to the antique market tomorrow. If Master Zhushi has something to do, please do it first. I'm not in a hurry. Let's make an appointment another day."

"what?"

Wu Di hung up the phone, imitating Matsushita Takeshi's dumbfounded look in his head, and he could hardly close his mouth from ear to ear.

Matsushita Zhushi was really confused by Wu Di, shouldn't he be very anxious?Could it be that something happened during this day or so that he didn't know about?

I have to say that he is indeed very sensitive, but even if he is allowed to let his imagination fly, it is impossible for him to think that Wu Di actually got the Tiancongyun Sword in their country, and it has been transported back to China in the first time!

I found someone to investigate Wu Di's whereabouts, but it made him laugh for a while.It's normal for this guy to scan the woolen stuff in Ueno Gambling Stone Street, but his translator actually wiped out almost all the love art films that those bosses treasured. What's the reason for this?

Tokyo is the largest collection and distribution center for antiques in Japan.There are only 352 well-documented antique shops in Tokyo, more than any other city, and there are thousands of thrift shops that also sell antiques.However, for antique lovers in Tokyo, the most attractive thing is not the antique shops, but the antique market. The difference between "store" and "market" is that the former is a fixed storefront, while the latter is a temporary market.

There are (offices) in Tokyo’s antique market, which open regularly. The size of the antique market varies. The largest one has nearly 500 antique dealers and tens of thousands of visitors. The smallest one has only twenty or thirty stalls. The Tokyo Antique Market was founded in 1977 Years, history is not long.

The antique market is divided into two types: open-air and indoor.The open-air antique market is mostly located in shrines and temples, such as Tomioka Hachiman Shrine, Togo Shrine, Gokoku Temple, Arai Yakushi Temple, etc.Some are also located in prosperous areas with convenient transportation, such as the station square in Yurakucho, a tramway.

The goods in the antique market can be "copied" at will to look at and figure out, without the permission of the stall owner.Therefore, antique dealers should try their best not to take exquisite works that are afraid of the sun, tide, touch, fall, and breakage in the open-air market.

For this reason, Wu Di set his main target on those antique shops.Of course, if there is a large indoor antique market, you can't let it go.

Translator Xiao Wang has been in Japan for nearly ten years and has been engaged in tourism reception work.Because the enthusiasm for collecting in China has continued to heat up in recent years, many people have gone to Japan to buy antiques, so they are very familiar with some large antique markets and antique shops.

"At this time, there is a large antique market in the Tokyo International Exhibition Center in Koto District. There should be more than 500 exhibitors. You can go and have a look. But it's best not to hold out too much hope. The domestic antique investment boom in recent years has really It was too violent and affected Japan, so it is very difficult to see fine Chinese antiques in the antique market."

Wu Di nodded, he had no intention of buying those so-called high-quality goods.Of course, if it is really a high-quality product, even if you spend a lot of money, you have to get it back, but the probability of this happening should be infinitely close to zero.

The Tokyo Big Sight was once the largest and most technologically advanced exhibition center in Japan. It looks like two square torches, even if it is placed more than ten years later, it still does not lag behind the trend.

The large antique market in Xiao Wang's mouth actually only occupies one of the venues in the exhibition center, but it is the largest one.There are a total of about [-] booths ranging from small to large. The antiques exhibited are very similar to Huaxia, including ceramics, wood, lacquer ware, bronze ware, ivory carvings, clocks, calligraphy and paintings, etc., but all categories have a strong The Japanese "taste".

There are some Chinese antiques on most of the stalls, but the quality depends on the beholder's opinion.

After spending an hour browsing hundreds of stalls, Wu Di didn't find anything worth selling.But he is not in a hurry, Taobao is like this, if it is everywhere, it will not be his turn to shop.

Sure enough, after looking at a few more stalls, Wu Di finally found a good thing.

This stall is mainly engaged in some ancient jade wares. Large and small jade carvings and jade pendants are neatly arranged, but because most of them are not in good condition, there are very few people who come to visit. Even if there are, most of them are after browsing in a hurry. Shaking his head away.

What caught Wu Di's attention was a jade head with a height of less than 4 cm and carved from triangular prism-shaped jade pieces placed in the upper left corner of the booth.

This head wears a small flat crown, with curved wing-shaped protrusions above the ears and large rings on the earlobes.Diamond-shaped eyes, garlic-shaped wide nose, four front teeth exposed in the mouth, and a pair of upside-down tusks at each corner of the mouth.It is very different from ordinary jade statues. It should be a combination of the dual characteristics of gods and beasts. To be precise, it should be called Jade God Spirit Statues.

Wu Di seemed to play with it for a while, and decided that this should be a rare Shijiahe culture jade god head!

The two lakes region in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, with Hunan and Hubei provinces as the main body, was the activity area of ​​the prehistoric "Three Miao" tribes.The history of its production and use of jade can be traced back to the middle and late Daxi culture about 6000 to 5500 years ago.In the Shijiahe culture about 4500 to 4000 years ago, the development of prehistoric jade articles in the Lianghu area reached its peak, forming a distinctive jade culture.

So far, more than 20 kinds of jade wares of Shijiahe culture have been discovered, including human heads, cicadas, tiger heads, animal face decorations, pendants, cong, bi, and tooth Zhangs. The most distinctive main feature of Jiahe culture jade.

Among them, there are only more than 10 Shijiahe jade heads unearthed. According to the characteristics of their ornaments, later generations subdivide them into two types: head portraits of ordinary people and head portraits of gods.

Most of the head portraits of ordinary people are realistic frontal portraits, and some are profile portraits.Head portraits are generally divided into three parts: upper, middle and lower. The upper crown and lower neck are often represented by wider transverse grooves.

At present, only one head portrait of the gods has been found in China, and its shape and carving techniques are very similar to this one.That is to say, if this piece is not a fake, it should be the second head portrait of the Shijiahe culture jade god discovered!

Wu Di took a look at the stall owner, he was a fashionable boy, he didn't seem to have much confidence in what he was selling, he didn't care about his behavior at all, he was just playing games with his tablet phone wholeheartedly.

"Boss, how do you sell this one?"

Receiving Wu Di's hint, Xiao Wang started to inquire.

"That one, the head portrait of the Jade God of Shijiahe Culture, 6000 million yen!"

As soon as the boy opened his mouth, Wu Di and Xiao Wang were surprised at the same time, it was a little girl with a boy's head!

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Xiao Wang's surprise didn't stop there, he silently repeated the girl's quotation, so he didn't choke to death with this number!In his mind, even if this thing is thrown on the ground, no one will pick it up because it is dirty. This girl actually asked for 500 million yuan, and there is no such way to grab money!

Wu Di's surprise was also not only because it was a girl, he was surprised that this little girl actually knew this thing!It seems that her carelessness is not because of lack of confidence, but because of her confidence!

"Ahem! Just this little thing, it costs 6000 million yen? Damn, I finally know why there is no one here..."

Xiao Wang glanced at the jade statue of the god, and complained in a low voice.But then he realized something was wrong, because instead of leaving because of the price, Wu Di squatted down, and while playing with the jade carving, he looked up and down the girl with great interest.

"Help me counter the price... 3000 million."

Xiao Wang was taken aback, is this thing so valuable?Could it be that Wu Di was confused by this novel marketing method, or simply fell in love with him?

"If you want to bargain, then bargain. How can there be so many of them? Let me tell you, even if you buy this thing for 6000 million yen, it is a big deal!" (To be continued.)
