The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Chapter 758: Not good, so ugly!

After chatting casually about the current situation of those old acquaintances in his hometown, Zhang Nan turned his attention to the other four small Buddha statues on the shelf. They are all early Buddha statues. Big.

Three of them are nothing special, unpretentious, and without inscriptions. Judging from the style, they should be statues before the Sui Dynasty. The remaining one is magnificent and magnificent-it is a standing gilt bronze Buddha statue, about 35 cm high.

The surface gilt is very well preserved and the quality is high, just like pure gold!

The Buddha statue is tall in a bun, with a round face, and is wearing a **** robes. The left hand is drooping, the right hand is imprinted with fearlessness, and he stands on the rosette on his feet, backlit by a boat-shaped flame.

Behind the backlight is also carved a statue of a sitting Buddha, engraved with a flame pattern backlight, and there is a four-legged square bed under the seat.

"Four sets of square beds are from Sixteen Nations again?"

Seeing Zhang Nan carefully manipulating the Buddha statue in his hand, Xiang Weirong asked casually: The four-legged square bed, just said that it was influenced by the legacy of the Han Dynasty.

Zhang Nan shook his head, turned the Buddha statue over and handed it to Xiang Weirong: "There is an inscription, not the Sixteen Kingdoms, but the Northern Wei Dynasty, the first dynasty of the Northern Dynasty in the Southern and Northern Dynasties a little later."

Xiang Weirong took a look, and sure enough, the back of the Buddha statue was inscribed: On April 5th, Yanxing five years, Zhang Cidai built a body of Sakyamuni Buddha for the Buddha.

"Yanxing, the reign of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Tuobahong, seems to be in 470 AD. I can't remember the specific year, so I have to go back and check the information to find out."

Zhang Nan is not a god, nor a computer, and his memory is not so good.

But it’s a good memory to have this memory, so guys admire it.

Zhang Nan actually blushed a little bit. The history of the Sixteen Kingdoms of the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the subsequent Northern and Southern Dynasties is almost a mess. Even a college student studying history is probably most afraid of studying that period of history.

Zhang Nan was able to understand this period of history more clearly because it was also the most popular era of Chronicle Bricks. There was a lot of research in the previous life, and after the accumulation of days and months, the southern part can be made seven or eight.

As for the north, some people who have paid attention to it can be remembered, and some cannot be remembered-but this Tuoba Hong cannot be forgotten. In the middle school history textbook, there is: in 494, Emperor Xiaowen Tuoba Hong moved to Luoyang as the capital, followed the Han Dynasty, wore Hanfu, Speaking Chinese, advocating intermarriage with Han people...

Remember to take the exam. After reading some information, I also remembered a ten-to-nine tenth.

"Flip through the book more, my brain will become squishy when I don't need it, and I won't forget it if I read it more."

Zhang Nan is very humble. This is the truth. He usually flips through a professional book when he has time, even on airplanes. The money is too much to imagine. If you just enjoy your life, it won't take a few years to get bored.

When it's okay, read books and charge them according to your hobbies. By the way, remind yourself that there are still many good things waiting for you to understand and collect at this time, so that life will not become so boring.

Even before going to bed, Zhang Nan often leaned on the pillow and read a book for half an hour after going to bed. Nicole and the others also said that the man who reads is very attractive.

Just focus.

Nong Bosheng lent itself to many professional reference books, as well as the history and archeology professional books that can be bought in the Western world. If you play antique collection, you have to live and learn so that you will not lose yourself. ——Too many things to satisfy?

It's like the veteran collector who I have heard of near Qinghefang in Hangzhou. He thinks he is everyone and looks down on people. As a result, he was slapped in the face by a young radio host!

The collection is endless.

Even if the richness of Zhang Nan's collection is already the world's first among private individuals, if it is more knowledgeable than bronze, it is really not as good as the backstage bosses of several tomb robbers in the Central Plains in the 1990s.

Collection, can't be complacent.

...

There are at least forty Buddha statues, Buddha heads, and high-relief statues, many of which are slightly damaged, and some of the larger ones are densely stacked.

Zhang Nan then looked around and said to Henry: "The people on the TV network are okay. They haven't moved savagely. I think there are new wear and tear on the bottom of a few Buddha statues."

Hearing this, Henry could be regarded as letting go of a big rock in his heart!

After entering the warehouse just now to see exactly what is in the warehouse, Henry actually "cocked" in his heart!

He is not the two producers and experts who don't understand oriental cultural relics. He has been with the boss for a long time, and it can be seen that these are almost all ancient Chinese Buddha statues.

Anyone who is close to the boss knows that Mr. Allen is not only a collector of top gems, but also an almost fanatical collector of art and cultural relics.

If these statues are damaged because of the negligence of the TV station's program team, God knows what the boss thinks.

Henry had heard of the attitude of avid art collectors to art damage caused by negligence. Some legends are even terrifying!

Fortunately, the flattery didn't hit the horse's leg.

Here, Paul took advantage of Henry’s long distance from Zhang Nan and pulled Henry and said: “Ask someone to sort out the filming material and send the copy to the manor as soon as possible. He also informs the film crew if anything has been pulled down. ."

Henry nodded, with an expression of "understanding and absolutely no problems".

As one of Zhang Nan's first bodyguards, Paul will also be responsible for some trivial matters when traveling. This would be a reminder to Henry-quickly figure out what is in the expired warehouse, if there are any important items missing, or if there are any items bought by other film crews.

If there is one to take away, take it back as soon as possible, before the boss reminds it.

Take it back now, it will not only have no fault, but it will also be meritorious. But if you wait for the boss or Guan Boss to speak, although it has nothing to do with Henry, the CEO of a large group, the consequences...think about it for the person who took it.

Including warehouse keeper.

Just be reminded, and it's not intentional. If you have it, you can change it, and if you don't, you can add encouragement.

There are so many things and piled together, Zhang Nan no longer looks at it carefully~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It's not that the stuff is bad, but basically understands it, and we will talk about it when we are free.

They are all relatively early Buddhist statues, and there are even several statues of Gandhara Buddha in India, and there is even a statue of Ganesha, Ghana.

This ganesha also has a translation called Ganesha. Zhang Nan seems to be a product of the fifth and sixth centuries, and is worshipped by Buddhists, Hindus and Jains in India at the same time.

A typical statue representative of the Gupta Dynasty, more than one meter high, with an elephant-headed human body, one side and two arms, exquisite carvings, vivid and vivid.

There is a warehouse clerk here, and Zhang Nan motions for the other person to come.

He glanced at the work card and said, "Mr. John, go find some professional porters and equipment, pack all these statues, and send them to my manor on Long Island.

Be careful not to damage it. "

As he said, regardless of the other party's reaction, he took a photo of the Ganesha statue and said to Xiang Wei, "Brother-in-law, how do you think this thing is placed in the garden?"

"Not good, too ugly."
