The wine banner that Lao Zhang picked up was not very precious, but it is possible to sell it for a few thousand yuan or even tens of thousands of yuan.

Seeing the good things that this unlucky old friend picked up, Old Chen was a little uneasy. He no longer gathered together and went to the darker stall.

Lao Zhang was in a good mood because he gained something and was in a good mood. He was very grateful to Huyang in his heart. If someone hadn't just reminded him that according to his personality, he would have missed it.

Brother Wei squatted in front of a stall and looked at it for almost two minutes before reaching out and picking up something, which was made of jade.

But when he took it, he saw the carving, it was like a joke, and he was not nostalgic at all, so he immediately put it back.

The whole body is in a semi-circular carving, standing in a long robe, with a long bun on the top of the head, low in front and high in the back. The long face indicates that there is a mouth and no nose.

Grab the lower part of the head to the chest with a pressing weight to form a slope, deep near the head and shallow near the chest, and very flat. Two thick horizontal string patterns on the waist indicate bowing, thin waist, long clothes are mopped on the floor, and the lower mouth is gathered into a chicken cage-style skirt.

However, when he put it back, Lao Zhang took it back, feeling it was an ancient jade, so he asked, "Boss, how do you sell it?"

The stall owner stretched out a slap.

Lao Zhang is also in this industry and often sets up stalls in Panjiayuan, so this routine doesn't work for him. He smiled and said, "Is it five or fifty yuan? Tell me clearly."

The stall owner's face suddenly became smelly when he heard this.

He said angrily: "It's five hundred yuan."

"It's expensive, how about fifty?"

The stall owner shook his head: "Not really, if you don't want it, just put it down. I won't sell it for a penny. No matter what, it is also an ancient jade, and a few hundred yuan is considered cheap."

Five hundred? Not cheap at all?

Lao Zhang began to hesitate again. His personality seemed to be like this. It was this personality that made him miss a lot of opportunities to find bargains.

Hu Yang had to remind him again: "This thing is OK for 500 yuan, but the boss is fair."

When the stall owner heard this, he was a good guy! He immediately felt that no matter how he looked at this young man, he felt very happy.

Lao Zhang was stunned, and then he immediately gave money without saying a word. He admired Hu Yang's ability to appraise treasures. Lao Chen was far inferior to others.

Brother Wei was a little regretful because he saw this first, but he put it back as soon as he got it. It’s no wonder that others have no chance to remind him!

"Brother Hu, what is this? It feels so casually carved!"

It was because of this that Brother Wei gave up. Especially the face of this figure, he digs three holes at random, even the eyes and mouth. This kind of carving is not even craftsmanship, and it is too simple. He thinks it is simply a kindergarten-level work.

"This is one of the three sets of Yu Weng Zhong, which warded off evil spirits in the Han Dynasty." Poplar explained.

Weng Zhong originally referred to the statue of the Huns' sacrifice to heaven. It was introduced into the pass by the Han people around the Qin and Han dynasties as a decoration for palaces.

In addition, Weng Zhong is still a real person in history.

According to legend, he was 1 twelve and 3 feet tall, and his courage was different from ordinary people. Qin Shihuang ordered Weng Zhong to guard Lintao, which shocked the Huns. After Weng Zhong's death, Qin Shihuang cast a bronze statue for him and placed it outside the Sima Gate of Xianyang Palace. The Huns came to Xianyang and saw the bronze statue from afar. They thought it was real Ruan Weng Zhong and dared not approach him.

This is actually the same as Guan Erye, Qin Qiong, Yuchi Gong and other powerful generals.

Yuwengzhong was quite popular in the Han Dynasty and was a kind of accessories used to ward off evil spirits. It was often carved as an old man with a standing shape, and the old man had a long beard and a large robe with a flat crown and a hole-punched rope for easy wearing.

Poplar tells everyone that the carving method of "Han Badao" in the Han Dynasty style is pale and ancient in color. The face is only carved with eyes and mouth, and is carved with only three to five short yin lines, forming the shape of an inverted "font" character. Some are plain faces, even the eyes and mouth are not carved. The eyelids are oblong, and the eyelids are mostly imitated later, especially during the Republic of China period, there were a large number of imitations Weng Zhong, whose yin lines are thicker and the edges of the knife edges are cracked.

The Han Dynasty Yu Wengzhong used the method of removing the neck and waist to make the neck and lower part of the waist flat, and it was a triangular oblique plane, which made the head more obvious, the waist had a contour, and the hem of the clothing was in a chicken cage. This was the style feature of Wengzhong of the Han Dynasty, and the imitation of the later body made the whole body into a straight cylinder.

In addition, most of the jade Wengzhong in the Han Dynasty had no beards. The bearded Wengzhong seen were all imitations, and the beards were represented by yin lines. The yin lines were thicker and the workmanship did not have the taste of the Han Dynasty.

"This one is very roughly carved, but it is actually the earliest works of Han Badao. Those carefully carved must have been imitated by later generations.

There are two forms of perforation in Yuwengzhong. One is to perforate on both sides of the waist, the other is to penetrate from the head to the waist, and then understand the perforation on both sides of the waist, making it a human word, so that Wengzhongren can stand when hanging.

There is also this piece of jade, which is Hetian white jade. Its quality is not very good, but it is not bad either.

This jade piece of Weng Zhong costs several thousand yuan or more than ten thousand yuan, and should be no problem." Hu Yang commented.

As you can see, this jade piece is really rough and has limited value. If it is a mature work of Han Badao, it will be at least 50,000 yuan.

"The three-piece set of evil-repelling in the Han Dynasty? Besides Weng Zhong, what are there?" Some people were curious about the other two evil-repelling items.

"The three-piece set is Weng Zhong, Si Nan, and Gang Mao." Hu Yang explained.

Sinan was originally a guide instrument invented in ancient my country that uses magnetic fields to guide the use of guidelines. It is used to determine the north and south. Its structure has a spoon on top and a territorial underneath. No matter how the territorial is placed or how the spoon turns, the spoon will be designated in the south. When the divination wind in the Han Dynasty was soaring, it became a tool for calculating good fortune.

Later generations imitated the shape of Sinan, and carved it into a Sinan shape on the top, a disc at the bottom, and a jade pendant similar to a flat jade cong in the middle. It was worn to ward off evil spirits and was called Sinan pendant.

"Gangmao is a kind of jade that was unique to the Han Dynasty. It usually appears in pairs and is small square columnar, generally about 2 cm long and 1 cm wide. The jade wares are perforated and penetrated to wear ribbons. However, there is no documentary record of how the ancients at that time wear them."

They are all engraved with the style of "家家" from the Qin and Han dynasties. The style of the book originates from weapon inscriptions. Generally, there are 8 characters on two lines on each side, and 10 characters on one side.

The name of Gangmao comes from the opening inscription: "Gangmao in the first month" and "Strict and severe sun", which are engraved as words to drive away ghosts and eliminate epidemics, and are worn on the body to ward off evil spirits.

At that time, people believed that by wearing Gangmao and Yanmao and using the "magic power" of these spells, they could drive away epidemics and ward off evil spirits and pray for blessings.

"These two kinds of things are not uncommon, and there are many imitations in later generations. We will definitely encounter them in the future. We will talk about them in detail at that time."

Old Zhang was so happy that he felt that his fortune had changed after following Hu Yang. Old Zhang finally came to work hard! He found a treasure twice.
