Although many of the Qing engravings are now classified as rare books, most of those Qing engravings are official engravings before Qianlong, and if this kind of family engraving in the Guangxu period wants to be included in the ranks of rare books, it will be almost the same for another hundred years.
That's right, this book Yang Jing has already been identified with a ring, and it is indeed a family engraving book in the Guangxu period, of course, the ring also gives a definite answer, that is, Liu Zheng and Liu Shiqi are indeed people in the Kangxi period.
For this kind of shopkeeper who plays tricks, of course Yang Jing has to push down the price fiercely, and directly offers a price of 1,000.
The shopkeeper's trick was exposed by Yang Jing on the spot, can he still have any way to refute it?
Apparently not.
Moreover, the price given by Yang Jing is neither high nor low, and it happens to be stuck in the throat of the price of this kind of late Qing Dynasty engraved book, which is basically the most suitable price for this kind of book at present.
The shopkeeper obviously saw that Yang Jing was an expert, otherwise people would not have seen the greasy in this book at a glance, and said the price of this book now.
However, the boss still said with the mentality of fighting for it: "Little brother, the price you gave is really low, why don't you give it a little more?"
” Yang Jing shook his head slightly and said, "It can't go up, this book is now at this price."
And the mistake of the Qing engraving is not the official engraving before Qianlong, otherwise it will not rise sharply in recent years, and I can only do it as a collection when I buy it back. ” If it weren't for the fact that this book still contains some treasures, Yang Jing wouldn't have bothered to talk nonsense with the shopkeeper.
Seeing Yang Jing's resolute attitude, the shopkeeper was also hesitant.
"Boss, if not, I'll read a few more books, and if there's a suitable one, I'll take it with you."
Hearing Yang Jing say this, the boss nodded reluctantly.
Then he took out a few books for Yang Jing.
Yang Jing flipped through the pages, only to find that these books are all clear edition books, to say that it is not as good as the "Miscellaneous Conversations of the Ancients" just now, at least the "Miscellaneous Conversations of the Ancients" just now is still an engraved book, but these books are all printed with movable type, although one is a hand-copied version, but it is not as good as the "Miscellaneous Conversations of the Ancients" that was stolen just now.
This situation made Yang Jing sigh secretly: "There are really fewer and fewer good things now." ” In fact, this is also a matter of no way, if it is a few decades ago, the antique market in Tianqu City is still very prosperous, although there is no Grand Canal Antique City, Dongzi Cultural Street Antique City such a professional antique city, but Yandiankou Antique City will attract a large number of antique lovers every time the market opens.
Even people from Ji Province and Jin Province will come.
As the heat of the antique market in X County of Hebei Province and Langfang City gradually subsided, the Yandiankou Antique City in Tianqu gradually became the most prosperous antique city at the junction of Hebei and Shandong, because at that time, those Taobao people could often find some good objects in the Yandiankou Antique City.
It's just that with the relocation of Yandiankou Antique City and the rise of the Grand Canal Antique City, there are fewer and fewer old objects on the market that can be worth selling Yang Jing really didn't have the desire to sell those books, so he pointed to the last book and said, "Please boss bring that book over to me again." ” The shopkeeper nodded, and said while taking the book outside: "Little brother, this book is different from the previous books, this book is a Ming version of the Eight Classics, and it can be regarded as one of the treasures of my town store." ” This book is the famous "Flower Collection".
Yang Jing looked at the book and smiled: "Boss, if your book is really a Ming version of the book, it is really good." ” "Of course it's a Ming book, I can assure you."
Yang Jing nodded noncommittally, and then focused on the book.
This is the seventh volume of the "Flower Collection", which looks very old, and it is not very well preserved, barely able to reach the quality of the seventh grade.
"Flower Collection" has a very high status in the history of literature in our country, it is a collection of words compiled during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period of our country, and it is also the first collection of literati words in the history of Chinese literature, edited by Zhao Chongzuo, a native of Later Shu, with a total of ten volumes.
"Between the Flowers" includes 500 poems by 18 lyricists, including Wen Tingyun, Huangfusong, Wei Zhuang, Xue Zhaoyun, Niu Qiao, Zhang Mi, Mao Wenxi, Niu Xiji, Ouyang Jiong, He Ning, Gu Yi, Sun Guangxian, Wei Chengban, Lu Qian, Yan Xuan, Yin E, Mao Xizhen, Li Xun, etc., from the first year of Tang Wenzong's opening to the fifth year of Gaozu Tianfu in the Later Jin Dynasty.
A complete picture of the development process.
Moreover, Huajian Ci standardized the literary genre and aesthetic characteristics of "words", finally established the literary status of "words", and had a profound impact on the creation of lyricists in the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties.
In the Song Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty, there were a large number of literati who wrote their own handwritten editions of the "Flower Collection", and there were also many official engravings of the previous dynasties, which was a set of books that were widely circulated.
In the Ming Dynasty, there were many inner mansion books in the "Flower Collection", that is, royal carvings, and of course, family carvings and workshop carvings were indispensable.
It's like a set of ten volumes of Song Ben's "Flower Collection" engraved by Lu Yuanda, a native of Suzhou, which was auctioned at a high price of 640,000 yuan at the 2014 Jiadechun auction, and the average auction price of one volume reached 640,000 yuan.
Of course, although the Ming edition of the book is not as valuable as the Song edition of the book, but now even the most ordinary Ming edition of the book, the price is thousands of yuan, if you catch up with the Ming edition of the book that can be classified as a precious ancient book, it is easy to exceed 50,000 yuan a volume.
This book is obviously not the Song version of "Between the Flowers" engraved by Lu Yuanda, but when Yang Jing opened it, he still couldn't help but feel refreshed.
This book is also a Ming engraving book, but it is obviously not an official engraving book, but should belong to a family engraving or a workshop engraving book, and it is obviously a Ming engraving of the Northern Song Dynasty engraving book, which can be clearly distinguished from the structure and layout of the book.
The seventh volume of "Between the Flowers" mainly includes the poems of two masters, namely the poems of Gu Yi and Sun Guangxian.
There are a total of 50 poems in the whole book, including 37 poems by Gu Yi and 13 poems by Sun Guangxian.
The first poem at the beginning is one of Gu Yi's "Huanxi Sand".
"The spring is charming and hateful, but the prodigal son does not return home, and the breeze gently exposes the pear blossoms.
Outside the curtain, there are two swallows, the green poplars in front of the threshold are weak, and the small screen dreams are extremely end. ” Although it is not an official engraving book, the book is printed quite well, and this edition is still a relatively rare thin gold version, so it makes Yang Jing even more interested.
Generally speaking, most of the stereotypes in the early Northern Song Dynasty used European characters, which were thin and slender, and later gradually changed to Yanti characters with majestic and simple shapes; In the Southern Song Dynasty, most of the engravings were made in willow style.
This reflects the different aesthetics of different eras.
Can be used thin gold body to make the engraving, even in the entire Song Dynasty is rare, the thin gold body carved book that has been handed down to the present, most of them are in the hands of museums or large collectors, here you can see a copy of the Song version of the thin gold body Ming carved book, it is also extremely rare.
After turning a few pages, Yang Jing could already be sure that the book was indeed a Ming carved book, but when he turned a few more pages, his face involuntarily changed slightly PS: Bow and thank you for the tip of "Chilled Octave" 100.
