    "You're a judge like a dog, you're like a horse, you're like an ox. Next time I meet you bastards, I won't give you mercy. I'm going to report you to heaven."

    Jia Gongqiu muttered ventedly, but even if the underworld tried again, it would be impossible for him to be detained by mistake twice.

    "What are you mumbling about?"

    The familiar voice woke up Jia Gongqiu. Jia Gongqiu looked up and saw Liu Ye and Zhu Xiuzheng staring at him with their heads lowered. Jia Gongqiu quickly changed his smile: "Dad, Mom, I'm back."

    Liu Ye said softly. He and Zhu Xiu didn't hear what Jia Gongqiu scolded him, but just saw Jia Gongqiu's loss of soul and was worried about something.  Seeing that Jia Gongqiu looked like nothing was wrong, they both breathed a sigh of relief.

    Mr. Six glanced at the bundle in Sui'er's hand: "What other goodies did your mother give you?"

    "It's nothing, just two sets of clothes." Jia Gongqiu replied absently, and after taking two steps he added: "Oh, by the way, there is also an inkstone. Judging from Sister Juhua's careful look, it may be quite valuable."

    "An inkstone?" Mr. Liu couldn't help but frown, and then asked with some surprise: "Is there a Wenqu star carved on it?"

    "I haven't seen Wen Quxing. He is an old man. He is gray and quite ugly."

    Mr. Liu understood what it was. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Silly boy, you have a mountain of treasures in your hands but you don't know the treasures. Let me tell you, this square inkstone can be exchanged for half of the Jia Mansion. Do you believe it?"

    Jia Gongqiu was stunned. He knew how big the Jia family was. If the Jia family was undefeated or remained in the hands of the Jia family, by the 21st century he was familiar with, the Jia family land alone would be sold for more than one billion.  But this square inkstone can be exchanged for half of the Jia family, which is more than 500 million.

    "Jia Gongqiu doesn't believe it, absolutely doesn't believe it. No matter how expensive the inkstone is, it can't be exchanged for more than 500 million."

    "It seems you don't believe it. Come on, let me tell you."

    Jia Gongqiu followed Master Liu to the study room obediently. This study was where he used to live. After he moved out, Master Liu used this place as a study room. In fact, Master Liu rarely reads here now. If he wants to read, he will be happy.  Go upstairs.

    After sitting down in the study, Liu Ye reached out to Sui'er to ask for the baggage. Sui'er heard that the square inkstone could be exchanged for half of Jia's house. She didn't know what to do. She held it in her hand for fear of falling, so she held it in her arms.  I was afraid that I was holding it tight, and I felt like I was holding a curse instead of a treasure. Now that Master Liu wanted to see it, he quickly and carefully put the baggage together on the table.

    Mr. Liu took out the inkstone and held it with his hand. He looked at it carefully for a while before placing it on the table. Jia Gongqiu came over and looked at it for a long time but didn't see anything.

    "It's nothing, it's just a good carving." Jia Gongqiu really couldn't tell how valuable this thing was. Even if the carving was fine, it wouldn't be worth half of Jia's family. Isn't this dad a liar? He's taking advantage of my mother's cabinet.  I have also seen that there are several inkstones inside, and I don¡¯t use them much. I just put them there casually, and gave them to myself casually. How come they are worth half of Jia¡¯s house.

    "Son, I asked you to go to Ruyi Building to read a book. How many times have you been there? You are a complete idiot." Liu Ye scolded with a smile.

    "Just tell him." Zhu Xiu was unhappy, brought two cups of tea and put them on the table, saying angrily.

    "It seems you don't know either, okay, I'll tell you." Mr. Liu rubbed his hand on the inkstone, with a hint of regret in his tone, as if the inkstone was given to Jia Gongqiu, just like a bright pearl cast into darkness, and fell into the mortal world.

    "To talk about this inkstone, first you have to know the classification of inkstones since ancient times," Liu Ye began to educate Jia Gongqiu and Zhu Xiu: "Brush, ink, paper and inkstone, the four treasures of the study, have been valued by scholars since ancient times, and scholars have strived for excellence in their pursuit.  .¡±

    "The pen is said to have been made by Meng Tian, ??a general of the Qin Dynasty. It mainly pays attention to materials. The pen tip is made of rabbit hair, wolf hair, and wool. The pen holder is made of more abundant materials. Bamboo is commonly used, and later ivory, jade, animal bone, and mahogany are used.  , both are available. The bristles must be strong, supple and elastic. For a good brush, use"

    "Old man, Qiu'er still needs to practice calligraphy. You can tell me about the four treasures of the study. When will you talk about them? Let's talk about this inkstone first today."

    Jia Gongqiu was still a little interested, but Zhu Xiu became impatient. The four treasures of the study must be passed down from the origin, to the identification of materials, production techniques, and the characteristics of each era. This journey can be described for seven days and seven nights.

    "Okay," Mr. Liu smiled, and did not argue with Zhu Xiu: "Look at this square inkstone. It is hard, yet very smooth when you touch it. There are no lines to hinder it." As he spoke, Mr. Liu tapped it gently with his fingers.  There was a buzzing sound: "Listen, what is this sound?"

    Jia Gongqiu frowned and discerned carefully. Liu Ye smiled slightly and tapped his fingers on the table twice. Jia Gongqiu suddenly realized: "It looks like wood."Sound.  "

    "Yes, it sounds like wood," Mr. Liu nodded and said, "Now judging from the stone material and the sound, there is no doubt that this is a Duan inkstone, and Duan inkstones need to be subdivided. The best Duan inkstone is the Axe Mountain Duanxi inkstone.  There are three famous pits for Duanxi inkstones in Keshan, Laokeng, Mazikeng, and Kengzikeng. The stones in these three famous pits are the best. The most important thing for collecting inkstones is the broken pit mouth. As long as the square inkstones from these three famous pits are  Very high value.

    So where did this pit come from?  If you look at the quality and feel of the stone, as well as its pattern, color, and texture, and its various manners and changes, you can basically conclude that it is Laokeng stone.  "

    Jia Gongqiu listened with great interest, and secretly took notes while trying hard to identify the lines on it. However, Liu Ye continued to talk to himself: "Look at the color of this stone. At first glance, it looks a bit gray, but if you look carefully,  But it has a bit of cyan, you can see it is particularly obvious in this area, so this is the best stone in Laokeng, azure stone, which is the best stone for making Duan inkstone. For this reason alone, this square Duan inkstone is worth collecting.

    Looking at Fang Inkstone, another important thing is time. The stone is not porcelain, nor is it jade with calligraphy and painting. It is difficult to judge the time, but you can judge it from the carving workmanship on the side.  "

    Mr. Liu eloquently described the characteristics of Duan inkstones in various periods and how to distinguish them in detail. The more Jia Gongqiu listened, the more he admired him. This old man is worthy of being a stubborn old man. There were some stubborn masters in the entertainment industry in his previous life, such as the boss of Huayi Company, a big boss in the industry.  , they like this way, but Jia Gongqiu dares to conclude that in front of the old man, they are at the level of primary school students.

    "Having said so much, when did this Fang Duan Inkstone come from? During the Huizong period of the Northern Song Dynasty, it was made for the imperial court, but that's not all. This Fang Duan Inkstone was used by Emperor Huizong. Although Huizong Zhao Ji was the king who lost his country, he was good at calligraphy and painting.  The thin gold calligraphy he created is unique for thousands of years.

    Huizong Zhao Ji especially loved Duan Inkstones and often gave them to his officials. Mi Fu, a calligrapher in the Song Dynasty, was awarded several Duan Inkstones by Huizong.  According to historical records, Huizong admired Taoism. The figure on this inkstone is obviously in the shape of Wenquxing. Huizong was very confident in his accomplishments in calligraphy and painting, and believed that he was the Wenquxing who descended to earth. Therefore, the Duan inkstone he rewarded his ministers could contain a moral and true king.  There are birds and beasts in the pines, but there are no Wenqu stars.

    When he was in power, he also issued an edict prohibiting the carving of Wenqu stars on Duan inkstones. In the entire Song Dynasty, only his imperial desk had a Duan inkstone in the shape of Wenqu stars.

    During the Qianlong Dynasty, Ji Xiaolan, a scholar in the cabinet, once received this inkstone. After Qianlong heard about it, he asked Ji Xiaolan to observe it. Ji Xiaolan was worried that Qianlong would not repay the loan, so he refused to give it to him. He insisted that Qianlong come to his home to see it. Qianlong had no choice but to give it to him.  Condescend to Ji Mansion.  "

    Jia Gongqiu couldn't stop talking, wow, this Ji Xiaolan is too cool, he won't even sell it to the emperor's account, but it's possible, think about the braid drama, the relationship between Ji Dayanguo and Qianlong is extraordinary, Qianlong is also a very good guy.  fool.

    Jia Gongqiu's stupid image fell in the eyes of the Sixth Master. The Sixth Master smiled proudly. Zhu Xiu quietly poked his waist from behind. The Sixth Master then said: "Son, now you know how precious this Duan Inkstone is. You  Remember, this square inkstone is called Wenqu Inkstone. There is only this one in ancient and modern times. There is no other branch. In the eleventh year of the Republic of China, your grandfather got it by chance. He always regarded it as a treasure. When he died, he was reluctant to leave this square inkstone. Someone once used it in the ocean.  Your grandfather wouldn't be willing to part with it for fifty thousand yuan, but now it's in your hands, you have to cherish it."

    Jia Gongqiu was overjoyed that it was worth so much. Just as he was about to calculate how much it would be worth in the future, Zhu Xiu interrupted: "He's only a little older. Don't let such a good thing go to waste. I'll keep it for him first."

    Ah, Jia Gongqiu¡¯s heart almost bleeds. It was worth fifty thousand oceans in the eleventh year of the Republic of China. How much will it be worth now and how much will it be worth in thirty years? Mom, you won¡¯t just give it up to me like this.

    It was impossible to ask his mother for confirmation. Jia Gongqiu immediately took his father's hand. His pitiful look made the iron man heartbroken, but Master Six had already seen through his trick. Instead of helping him, he said: "Mom said  You're right, you're still too young, your mother can keep these things for you, and so does your mother. Why am I giving this to you now? If it's broken, it will be ruined. Show, don't keep it yet.  Get up and let me take a look."

    So that's it. Jia Gongqiu stared at Mr. Liu with disdain. How could he forget that this father was so familiar with inkstones and there were several models of inkstones in the room. He must be a lover and collector of inkstones. How could he not see this inkstone?  Don't want to keep it for yourself.

    "Dad, you also like this inkstone, right?" Jia Gongqiu couldn't bear this tone and planned to find some more first.

    "Well, yes," Mr. Liu replied casually, then he realized what he was doing, looked at Jia Gongqiu and said with a smile, "Why, it doesn't matter if you play with dad for a few days, you little money-crazy guy."

    "Tch, you can play if you want. I have to use my mother as an excuse to despise you."

    Mr. Liu was stunned for a long time before he became furious and wanted to fight back, but Jia Gongqiu had alreadyYan Yan ran out, and Mr. Liu could only curse him unwillingly.

    "Despise you" has almost become Jia Gongqiu's mantra. Almost everyone in the house has been despised by him. As time goes by, no one takes it seriously.

    But today, Master Liu was exposed by a five-year-old child, which made Master Liu feel a little embarrassed and angry.
