    Speaking of this, Zhao Heyan said with some indignation: "Our squad leader's parents probably jumped off the building two months ago. There are only one old and one young left. I thought no one would ask her family to collect debts again."  , I didn't expect" At this time, Wen Xuelan also walked in with a kettle. Hearing this, he quickly said: "Don't get me wrong, after my parents left, no one came to ask us for debts, but my grandma and I  I thought it was not easy for others, so I decided to sell my previous house to pay off the debt. Although it was not enough, I would pay back the remaining money slowly by working part-time jobs, and I would pay it off one day. " Although Wen Xuelan said it well.  Yun Dan, but the spirit contained in his words made Chu Chen and the others stand in awe.  In the traditional concept, the father's debts are repaid by the children, but now we are a legal society. Legally, children have no obligation to repay debts for their parents.  So many people use this as a basis to refuse to return it even if they have the ability. There is indeed no problem with this legally.  But then again, other people's things are not stolen and robbed. If you don't return them when you have the ability, it is really against the moral tradition.  Chu Chen couldn't help but admire Wen Xuelan's ability to persist in this fine tradition at such a young age and in such a difficult life. He thought to himself, if there is a suitable opportunity later, then  Help them as much as you can.  But since this is the situation at Mrs. Wen's house, Chu Chen won't have high expectations for what Mrs. Wen will bring out later. If it is really a good thing, then their family will not keep it until now.  .  After a while, Mrs. Wen walked in cautiously with a brocade box in her arms. She put the box on the table and said, "Take a look at this first. This is a piece handed down by my ancestor."  "Purple Clay Pot." Hearing that it was a purple clay pot, Chu Chen couldn't help but be interested, but he felt a little strange.  So she asked: "Grandma Wen, this purple clay teapot should be quite expensive. If it is really handed down from our ancestors, the price should not be cheap. Why don't you sell it?" Old Mrs. Wen said with a smile: "My old man used to  It is said to be a purple clay teapot. Although the flowers and plants are painted on it, it looks pretty good, but it seems to be coated with a layer of black paint. My son said that this thing may not be purple clay, and it is not worth much, so it was not sold at the beginning. "  Mrs. Wen's description made Chu Chen immediately think of a craft. He quickly opened the box and took a look, and immediately smiled.  Said: "Grandma Wen, this is indeed a purple clay pot, but the technique used has been lost now, which is called "palace purple clay lacquer and gold tracing." "Ah! Is it really purple clay? Is it worth it?"  Chu Chen took a rough look at the intactness of the lacquered gold, thought for a moment, and said: "If the thing is real, considering its current condition, it should be more than one hundred thousand." "One hundred thousand?!" Old Mrs. Wen listened.  When he saw Chu Chen's quotation, he was a little stunned, and then tears welled up from his eyes. He said with tears: "I said we don't understand. If we let others take care of it, we might be able to sell it at a good price.  He just didn’t listen to me. I originally wanted to show it to others, but I didn’t expect them to just walk away. If they had listened to me, how could they have behaved like this?” In fact, Wen Xuelan’s parents at that time,  I have given up all hope and have no intention of dying, so I can't listen to what the old lady Jinwen said.  Moreover, they would not believe it at the time.  How much would such a teapot be sold for?  Seeing this, Wen Xuelan choked up and persuaded: "Grandma, don't cry, things are already like this. If you cry and hurt your body, what should I do?" After listening to her granddaughter's persuasion, Mrs. Wen also reacted. Now  In my family, they are the only women and children who depend on each other. If I really fall, what will my granddaughter do? How will I face my son and daughter-in-law who are so vulnerable?  Thinking of this, Mrs. Wen wiped her tears and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm a little out of control. I don't know if you like this thing?" Chu Chen chuckled and said: "I haven't gotten started yet, this  "Hi, I'm sorry for wasting your time. Just take a look, just take a look." Chu Chen nodded with a smile, put on his gloves, carefully picked up the teapot, and first looked at the bottom of the pot, which was written in gold paint.  The six-character, three-line seal script inscription "Qianlong Year System of the Qing Dynasty" is neat, powerful and standardized. This is the embodiment of Qianlong's official money.  When he saw these six words, he couldn't help but feel happy.  Painting refers to a method of using various lacquers to depict patterns on a smooth lacquer ground (base). Painting gold, also known as lacquer painting, refers to a decorative method that uses golden materials to depict various patterns and patterns on the surface of an object.  , this process is mostly used on lacquerware.  It is difficult to achieve a high level of color in the painting processIn order to achieve the desired effect, gold tracing techniques were applied to the lacquerware, and mostly black lacquer was used as the ground, with a small amount of vermilion lacquer being used.  The combination of the two techniques makes the utensils more luxurious and achieves colorful and gorgeous artistic effects.  The use of lacquer paint (xiū) to decorate purple sand pots began in the Ming Dynasty. During the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, the technique of heavy color and gold in lacquer painting was absorbed, and the pot body was decorated with splendor.  This technique was fully mature by the time of Qianlong and was lost after Jiadao, which shows how precious it is.  Precisely because of this, Chu Chen was overjoyed to see that this teapot was from the Qianlong period.  This pot has smooth lines, a short spout, an arc-shaped handle, and a circle foot.  The cover is arched and decorated with pearl buttons. The shape of the whole vessel is regular and honest.  The purple sand inner tube is covered with black paint and painted with large golden chrysanthemums. The flowers are blooming one after another, the flowers and leaves are dyed red and green, and a butterfly is flying among the flowers. It looks quite interesting.  The most important problem to be solved when applying gold paint on purple clay is the peeling of the paint. Once it is not properly adhered, it will peel off in pieces. The purple clay lacquerware of the Qianlong period solved this problem very well.  This pot is still beautifully preserved with gold paint, and there is basically no peeling off of the paint gold, which is really rare.  This teapot is exquisitely crafted and gorgeously decorated, showing the exquisite artistic features of royal utensils.  Moreover, it was so well preserved that Chu Chen really couldn't put it down when he saw it. Especially now that he has started learning tea ceremony, he loves it even more.  "Grandma Wen, I like this pot very much. I wonder how much you want to sell it for?" Mrs. Wen waved her hand after hearing this and said, "I don't understand this either, just give me a fair price." "Ten  Eighty thousand, Grandma Wen, what do you think? "The price Chu Chen offered is already very fair. Although this teapot is good, in the purple clay teapot market, it is more popular if it is made by celebrities. If he hadn't wanted to help,  Old Mrs. Wen's family, and he bought this teapot for his own use, so he wouldn't offer the price of 180,000.  Mrs. Wen and Wen Xuelan were delighted when they heard the price of 180,000, but then they felt a little sad.  Old Mrs. Wen shook her head and sighed: "Young man, I'll give it to you at this price, but how are you going to give me this money?" Chu Chen was also stunned when he heard this.  Think of this.  Today is Sunday, the bank is closed, transfers will definitely not work, and Mrs. Wen certainly cannot have a credit card machine. As for the check, don’t say she doesn’t have it. Even if there is one, Mrs. Wen is unlikely to accept it.  With no other choice, he could only ask his cousin to call his uncle for help.  Fortunately, Zhao Qirui still had 180,000 yuan in cash. Chu Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said to Mrs. Wen: "Grandma Wen, it will take a while to get the money. I don't know if you have any money here."  If there are any other things, as long as they are good, I will accept them." With this teapot as a base, Mrs. Wen's mind became more active. She really didn't know that such a thing could be sold for so much.  money.  Although I had to sell almost all the gold, silver and jade at home because I had to pay off my debt, there are still some small things at home. Maybe there are good things in them, and maybe I can pay off the remaining debt of 340,000 yuan.  Woolen cloth?  So Mrs. Wen turned around, pulled out a bowl from the cupboard on one side, put it on the table, and asked, "Young man, look at this bowl, what do you think?" Seeing this, Wen Xuelan couldn't help but said anxiously:  "Grandma, I had this bowl at noon. Why did you take it out? How rude!" Old Mrs. Wen said a little embarrassed: "This is also passed down from our ancestors. When I married  It was there when your grandfather was there, so maybe it’s an antique too.” Wen Xuelan retorted, “Grandma, how is this possible? And this bowl is already rough, so what’s the value of it even if it’s an antique?”  The Yunlong bowl looks quite pure in blue and white, but it should be due to long-term use. There are some slight burrs around the mouth of the bowl. It doesn’t look like it’s in very good condition. That’s why Wen Xuelan felt that even if it was an antique, it wouldn’t be worth much.  money.  Zhao Heyan and the others came forward to take a look, and felt that the hairy mouth greatly affected the appearance. If it were herself, she would definitely not buy such a thing.  At this time, Chu Chen chuckled and said: "This bowl is really an antique. As for the rough mouth, although it will be discounted a little, it is not worthless." "Huh?" Chu Chen said this  , so that others couldn't help but be surprised, and Mrs. Wen was even more overjoyed, and said quickly: "Young man, you look at it first, and I will look for other things." After that, she hurriedly walked into the room.  Run.  "Mr. Chu, I'm sorry." Wen Xuelan hugged her? said.  Chu Chen waved his hand and said it didn't matter. This is human nature, just like a drowning person grabbing a life-saving straw. If it were anyone else, it wouldn't be much better than Mrs. Wen.  Then, Chu Chen picked up the blue and white cloud dragon bowl and observed it carefully.  This bowl has an open mouth, a curved wall, a deep belly, and a circle foot.  The whole body is covered with white glaze, and the center and outer belly of the bowl are decorated with cloud and dragon fireball patterns. The hair color is clear, the dragon posture is vigorous, the blue and white are gorgeous, and the painter is experienced.  At the bottom is the six-character regular script inscription "Yongzheng Year System of the Qing Dynasty", with neat and beautiful fonts.
