    To be honest, Wang Xiangong was very surprised that this seal could survive the Jingnan War in the early Ming Dynasty, the fire in the Zhengde period, and the destruction of the Ming Dynasty by the Qing Dynasty.  Shocked, Chu Chen also felt extremely surprised.  Liu Sizhe observed the square seal very carefully, and then said dumbfounded: "No matter how I look at it, I think this square seal is real! However, this is Zhu Biao's sealwait a minute, is it this square seal?  He was buried with him, so he survived? " "It seems possible!" Wang Xiangong frowned and thought for a while, thinking that this might be the reason.  Chu Chen shook his head: "I don't think so, because if it is really a funerary object, then there will always be traces of burial on the surface of the seal, right? I think someone took it out of the palace during the Battle of Jingnan  "It's more likely." Everyone nodded and agreed with this explanation.  Liu Sizhe laughed and said: "Anyway, the seal is real. As for how it was passed down, we are not historians. Why do we know so clearly? As for the orderly inheritance theory that is emerging in the antique market now, it is a matter of opinion.  The wise man has seen wisdom!" "You can't say that. We still need to study what needs to be studied. As for the order of inheritance" At this point, Chu Chen couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.  During this period, some so-called ¡°experts¡± in the antique market have been hyping up the so-called theory of orderly inheritance of cultural relics.  In fact, to put it bluntly, it is to turn some cultural relics that have no inherited stories into touching stories and tell them to people who don¡¯t know the truth and collectors.  This is the story told by the vendors in the antique market.  In fact, it's the same thing but the purpose is to make more money through speculation.     specific.  It's not that experts and some treasure holders collude internally and externally, calling for responses from afar.  It is because some experts collude with foreign cultural relic traffickers.  Therefore, driven by interests, some cultural relics whose origins are unknown have to be told to the Chinese people with beautiful and touching inheritance stories in order to achieve the purpose of hype.  A general manager of an auction company once said: "The most common piece of Ding kiln plain porcelain is dirty and old, but if it is seen in the market, every tag attached to it will double its value. Because it has witnessed  From the collection of the Qing Dynasty to contemporary history, this is the market force of "orderly inheritance" "In fact, it is impossible for a cultural relic to pass through the hands of many collectors for hundreds of thousands of years.  A very detailed record, for example.  Will the museum still list all the collectors who have owned the collection?  Since even museums don¡¯t deliberately pursue orderly inheritance, then as a buyer, why should you care about these things?  When buying antiques, don¡¯t listen to stories. This is something that many people know. So why do you pay attention to this when you are at a stall?  But at the auction, many people were convinced?  Moreover, speaking of which, some people say that things are inherited in an orderly manner, but how much strong evidence can he provide?     so.  Chu Chen believes that if something is real, it is real.  If it is false, then even if you tell a nice story, it will not turn false into true.  Even if it is true, it is better not to listen to those so-called stories. An ordinary antique with a beautiful story will cost a few percent more. Isn¡¯t the money paid unjustly?  Liu Sizhe said with a smile: "It's okay to do some research, but there are no clues about this thing!" Duan Kun said: "Who said there are no clues? Isn't Wang Xiaoshan's family a clue? I'll make a call later and let the people who go there tomorrow  Help me ask, maybe I can find out something!" Liu Sizhe sneered and said, "Come on, I think there is little hope. His family can even forget the formula for opening a box. Do you think it is possible to remember the origin of this seal?  How big is it?" Chu Chen said with a smile: "That being said, it's okay to ask, let's do our best to obey fate" When the car arrived in Fucheng, everyone found a place to stay first, and finally came here.  Fucheng, you have to have fun no matter what, but Wang Xiangong has something to do at home and plans to take the flight back to Beijing tomorrow morning.  So, in the evening, everyone had a good meal of local delicacies at the restaurant recommended by Duan Kun. Then, because of the fatigue from the journey, everyone went to rest early.  The next day, after bidding farewell to Wang Xiangong, Chu Chen and others began to visit the second largest city in the Western Province.  Fucheng is a city with a long history and outstanding people.  This is the hometown of Huangdi Yuanfei, the mother of silk, Leizu, and the birthplace of Dayu.  The world's earliest model of human meridians was unearthed here, and it is one of the birthplaces of traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? This land has a gathering of humanities and talents, giving birth to Li Bai, Ouyang Xiu, Wen Tong, Li Tiaoyuan, Sha Ting, Deng Jiaxian, Feng Dashi and countless othersOutstanding figures such as Sima Xiangru, Yang Xiong, Jiang Wan, Song Zheyuan, Du Fu, Wang Bo, Yang Jiong, Lu Zhaolin, etc. all left important relics or works here.  As a city with splendid humanities and meandering scenery, there are many places to visit, but Chu Chen and the other two were not very familiar with Fucheng, so they temporarily found a tour guide.  We followed the tour guide to visit the scenic spots in Fucheng city for a day, but the four of us did not continue our tour the next day because we heard from the tour guide yesterday that today is Saturday and there is a market in Fucheng¡¯s antique market this morning.  As practitioners and enthusiasts in the antique industry, Chu Chen and the others certainly could not miss such an opportunity, so the four of them got up early in the morning. After breakfast, Hu Yong drove them and asked for directions several times.  Finally I found the antique market the tour guide mentioned.  According to the tour guide yesterday, this antique market was officially opened in 1995. Although the place is small and there are only nearly 50 stores, the popularity here is very high.  When the four of them got there, they found that it was exactly as the tour guide said. It was crowded with people and there were many stalls. There were all kinds of porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, coins, jade, miscellaneous items, etc.  Seeing this, except for Hu Yong, the other three people became excited.  But that's what antiques are like. Almost nine out of ten items are fake. After the three of them saw a few items, they gradually calmed down.  ??In such an occasion, hawkers who shovel the land are definitely indispensable.  "The so-called shoveling the land means that you don't open a store yourself, but only go to the countryside to collect goods, or you are a person who robs ancient tombs.  After they get the things, they sell them to various merchants, or sell them themselves in the market. People in the industry call them "guerrillas", "shovelers", or simply "shovellers".  The composition of the shovels is relatively simple, almost all of them are native rural people, or they are rag collectors, or they are lazy people wandering around. One day they saw that the antique business was quite profitable, so they got infected and entered.  Of course, there are also those who are influenced by relatives and friends and learn skills from teachers.  Generally speaking, some of the more professional shovels are familiar with it, and they secretly keep in mind where they like to buy things and where they can find better products that cannot be bought. Of course, such information is generally kept secret from their peers.  The reason is very simple. If you tell others, you will compete for the sale, and it will most likely frighten the owner, and he will not be able to buy the thing.  Generally, shovels have been traveling in rural areas all year round, and the goods they receive are mostly low-end goods. Why is this?  The reason is equally simple. There are few good things in the world. Although the countryside is vast, it has always been a concentrated area of ??economic backwardness.  Even if there are some wealthy individuals, they are mostly country bumpkin landlords who live austere lives by collecting some rent. They have neither the strength nor the interest to spend big bucks on nice things to put in their homes.  Furthermore, the rural areas are vast and the security is poor. If there are really good things, if the bandits find out about them, their families may be destroyed. Therefore, most of the goods scattered in the countryside are street goods and junk goods.  Of course, the countryside is so big after all, and it cannot be said that there are no good things at all. However, the shovels all have one thing in common. They basically operate on a small business with goods coming and going.  Some discerning merchants go to collect goods from them during breaks in the market. Some have gained mutual trust and formed friendly relationships. They will even take the initiative to make phone calls once they get some decent goods.  For example, Chu Chen knows several professional shovels. If they have any good stuff, they will contact him.  In view of the above reasons, after many shovels come to the market, the goods on display are mostly junk goods left after being selected by experts.  However, there are always things that slip through the net, not to mention there are many hawkers shoveling the land, and the goods on sale are all kinds of tricks. The so-called masters in the antiques industry will definitely not be as omniscient and omnipotent as Chu Chen, who only specializes in one or a few places.  An expert in every aspect usually has his/her weaknesses, so many opportunities are left.  For these opportunities, talents who rush to the market to find treasures are eager to do so and rush early in the morning in order to obtain more opportunities.  Because he has been a hawker for nearly five years, Chu Chen has some experience in distinguishing professional shovels. For example, from the things on his stall and the interactions with the customers around him, Chu Chen guessed that he should be  A relatively experienced professional shovel. ??????? Generally, when senior businessmen come to the market, they always bring some good goods. Chu Chen thought that they came early and the other party might have goods, so he planned to check it out.  But the stall owner was discussing business with other people, so Chu Chen was going to take a look at the things on the stall first.  Since it is a shovel, it must be of all kinds. The things on the stalls here are like this, ranging from large porcelain vases and Buddha statues to small bracelets (bracelets) and coins. It can be said that there are all kinds of things.  Of course, most of the things on the stall are ordinary goods, but there are not many fakes. This is one of the reasons why Chu Chen feels that the stall owner is an experienced shovel.  "Brother Chen, what kind of fun is this?"???  "As soon as Chu Chen squatted down, Duan Kun found something he liked, handed it to Chu Chen and asked. Chu Chen took the thing and took a look. It turned out to be a pair of aromatherapy balls. After looking at the thing, he said casually  : "This is a pair of aromatherapy balls. If they are not expensive, you can buy them and give them to Zhenzhen.  "
