: All knowledge in the world is knowledge

The style of Song porcelain is generally the same as Song poetry and Song style furniture.

If it can be summed up in one word, it is actually nothing more than "simplicity and detail, simplicity and broadness".

As the saying goes:

Burn incense, order tea, hang pictures and arrange flowers;

It is not appropriate to burden the family with all kinds of idle things.

To a certain extent, it can be said that the people of the Song Dynasty took the simple and natural "elegance" to the pinnacle.

As a native of the Song Dynasty, Gao Fei was naturally deeply influenced by this simple and elegant beauty.

It's okay to be outside on weekdays, he can be like the light.

But now that he is building his own residence, Gao Fei naturally has to follow his wishes.

After all, after closing the door, this courtyard may be his only place of peace in this world.

…

As Yu Bo said before, Ms. Meng's connections in Panjiayuan are indeed extraordinary.

Although she was not in the wood furniture business, after Gao Fei stated her requirements, she quickly contacted a boss who specialized in antique furniture.

The other party was also a store owner of Panjiayuan, so after a brief chat, the boss Song simply said that he could come over and chat in person.

After hearing this, Gao Fei naturally couldn't get what he wanted.

So after waiting for more than ten minutes, the two of them saw a short, fat, dark, middle-aged man in a Tang suit walking in.

Before Song Ping came, he only knew that the buyer was a young man, but now he looked up and immediately recognized Gao Fei's star status.

For a moment, I was inevitably surprised.

After all, in his opinion, these young stars nowadays should like the trendy things.

But when Ms. Meng told her embarrassing story with a wry smile, Song Ping couldn't help but look at Gao Fei with admiration.

But when he learned that Gao Fei wanted a complete set of Song-style furniture, Song Ping couldn't help but be a little surprised.

After all, apart from filming these days, very few people are used to the furniture of the ancients.

Most people just take a fancy to a certain style of Song-style furniture and buy it alone for their own use.

But since Gao Fei made this request, he naturally wouldn't be too troublesome.

So after understanding Gao Fei's thoughts, he conveniently asked:

"Mr. Gao, what are your requirements for this wood?"

As he spoke, he laughed and joked to himself:

"If you are interested in golden nanmu, then I will not be able to put together a set of furniture even if I dig out all the money!"

Hearing this, Gao Fei couldn't help laughing.

After all, golden nanmu has been a rare treasure since ancient times. No matter how stupid he was, he would never want to use it to make furniture.

However, the conversation ended with laughter. After chatting for a few words, Gao Fei still asked in detail about the material and price of the relevant wood.

Song Ping was worthy of being a veteran in business. Dangjie took out a bunch of specimen wooden signs from his pocket and placed them in front of Gao Fei.

While explaining to him the material characteristics of the relevant wood, he also introduced the price.

"This is small-leaf red sandalwood, which is characterized by its hard texture and resistance to decay.

Ordinary furniture made of wood can last for decades at most.

However, most small-leaf red sandalwood furniture can last for more than hundreds of years. Many antique furniture today are handed down from the Ming Dynasty.

The current market price is almost 50,000 per ton."

"This is Hainan Huanghuali. The wood is yellow in color, fine in texture, soft in texture, and refreshing in aroma.

And the most important thing is that its wood is extremely stable and will not deform, crack, or bend regardless of the cold or heat. It has a certain degree of toughness and is suitable for making various special-shaped furniture.

The current market price is about 20,000 per ton!

This is Siamese rosewood..."

Soon, half an hour passed.

After Gao Fei learned about the relevant market conditions, he thought for a moment and then made a decision.

So he immediately laughed and joked to himself:

"Forget it, I can't afford the red sandalwood anymore, so I can only use some cheap ones, just Hainan Huanghuali!"

Of course, this statement was just a joke.

Although the price of small-leaf rosewood is a little more expensive, Gao Fei can't afford it.

But according to what Song Ping just said, small-leaf red sandalwood is very afraid of water. If it is not taken care of properly, it is likely to swell and crack.

Therefore, at present, red sandalwood furniture is mostly used for collection purposes, and its limitations in household furniture are still very large.

Therefore, for Gao Fei, Hainan Huanghuali is the most suitable.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Bo also selected the wood.

But unlike Gao Fei, he still prefers small-leaf rosewood.

But after both of them selected the furniture wood, Song Ping provided two trading methods.

One is to purchase finished furniture directly from him, leaving other buyers alone and paying in kind.

But in this case, the price will naturally be much higher.

The other method is for the buyer to purchase the materials, and then Song Ping's furniture factory is responsible for processing, and he charges a processing fee.

After seeing what he said, Gao Fei and Yu Bo couldn't help but look at each other in confusion.

Song Ping seemed to encounter situations like this often, and he smiled and explained the inside story to the two of them.

…

It turns out that when purchasing wood from its origin, it is calculated by weight, but in the furniture processing process, wood is calculated by cubic meter.

After all, the prices of wood with different densities and materials are also very different.

The most important thing is that in the process of processing logs into materials, the loss of wood is very large.

When drying the water first, 15% will be lost;

After flat sawing, there will be an average loss of 8%;

During planing, 8% will be lost;

After the engraving and molding process, there will be a loss of about 13%;

Finally, after all the "cracked and damaged white fat" was removed, almost 28% was lost.

Therefore, the actual utilization rate of one ton of wood is only 28%, sometimes even lower.

In short, if a set of mahogany furniture has a net weight of 100 kilograms, you will probably need to prepare 300 kilograms of logs.

Therefore, the reason why Song Ping proposed the second plan was not because of how kind he was.

It's that this plan seems to make him less money, but in fact the risks he needs to bear are also greatly reduced.

It can be said that the harvest is guaranteed despite droughts and floods!

The first option seemed to make him a lot more money, but the effort and risks involved were far greater than the second option.

After he finished speaking these words, Gao Fei and Yu Bo suddenly realized.

So after some discussion between the two, Yu Bo decided to buy two sets of Ming and Qing style furniture made of small-leaf red sandalwood directly from Song Ping.

As for Gao Fei, he chose the second option.

This is not because Goofy is bold and adventurous.

It was Song Ping who persuaded him to make this choice after understanding the size of his courtyard house.

After all, Gao Fei can't even determine the final area of ​​​​the house. As a result, the number of furniture is naturally even more difficult to estimate.

Finally, after some communication.

After Song Ping's suggestion, Gao Fei decided to buy 50 tons of Hainan huanghuali aniseed ingredients first, and then buy more later if there was not enough.

When everything was settled, Gao Fei and Yu Bo couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.
