Chapter 278 Gilded Sakyamuni Buddha Statue in the Year of Yongle
At the entrance of Liulichang, there was a lot of people coming and going, Ye Feng waited for half an hour before finally stopping a taxi.
"Tianquanshan Sanatorium." Ye Feng entered the driveway.
The driver was slightly taken aback, but he still turned the car around and drove in the direction of the Tianquan Mountain Sanatorium.
Tianquanshan Sanatorium, this is the most famous sanatorium in the capital, and all the people who can live in it are formerly popular dignitaries and prominent figures.
The tiger father has no dogs, and the descendants of these great people are all famous people now. Someone took a taxi to this place, and it was the first time for the driver to meet him.
"Little brother, what are you going to Tianquanshan Sanatorium for?" While driving, the driver asked curiously.
"Go to visit grandparents, grandparents and the others." Ye Feng replied casually.
Hearing this, the driver master couldn't help laughing, but he didn't say much.
In his opinion, Ye Feng's words were obviously bragging. Which of the direct descendants of those big shots took a taxi like Ye Feng.
Moreover, when Ye Feng spoke, it was obvious that he had a foreign accent!
"Little brother, judging from your accent, you shouldn't be from a foreign country, right?" the driver continued.
"Well, from Pingchuan, I just came to the capital a few days ago."
"Did you come to Liulichang to pick up leaks?"
"That's right." Ye Feng said with a smile.
"The current Liulichang is no longer the former Liulichang!" The driver's chatter was instantly opened.
First, he talked endlessly about Liulichang, and then he told Ye Feng about the Tianquan Mountain Sanatorium. The stories one after another made the lonely journey much easier.
After more than an hour, the car finally parked slowly not far from the entrance and exit of the nursing home.
"Little brother, you can get off here. Unrelated vehicles are forbidden to park in the places ahead."
"You don't need to look for it." Ye Feng took out 200 yuan and handed it to the driver in a cool manner.
"Thanks!" Glancing at the little red fish in his hand, the driver's mouth burst into joy.
He opened the door and got out of the car, and rushed over excitedly.
Ye Feng has often been in and out of the nursing home in the past two days. These guards are familiar with him, and they were only let in after a routine inspection.
"This kid really went in? Could it be that the things about visiting his grandparents and grandparents are true?" The driver stared at the back of Ye Feng walking in, and muttered suspiciously.
Since Ye Feng got off the car, his eyes have been on Ye Feng's body. He really wants to see if Ye Feng really wants to enter the nursing home.
"Pretend to be aggressive, if you have a car, don't drive and take a taxi, pretend to be aggressive!" The driver master muttered to himself, and then his eyes fell on the little red fish that Ye Feng handed over.
One, two, the driver counted happily, and in an instant, the expression on his face froze.
When his eyes fell on the numbers on the meter, the guy's expression became even uglier.
"370 yuan..., this kid only gave 200 yuan and I said thank you?"
Ye Feng was walking on the wide road in the nursing home without knowing about it. Maybe he never dreamed that he was in a good mood and directly threw two little red fish out. In fact, it was not even enough for the fare!
Back at the villa, as usual, grandma and grandma took their parents to talk about the housework, while grandpa and grandpa sat aside and played chess.
"Xiao Feng is back, where is Xiao Xin? Why don't you bring Xiao Xin back too?" Grandma and Grandma said with joy on their faces, and then some displeasure.
The two old men didn't say much, but their eyes fell on the Buddha statue Ye Feng was holding, and they became interested immediately.
"Where did this Buddha statue come from?" the two old men asked with a smile.
Although they are not very good at antiques, they still have some basic eyesight. This Buddha statue can be seen at a glance as a fake.
"I bought it from Liulichang." Ye Feng said with a proud face.
"From the Liulichang? You won't come back from the Liulichang since you went out in the morning and now?" The two old men opened their mouths in disbelief.
Ye Yunlong has said about Ye Feng's deeds, and he is very good at betting on stones and appraising treasures!But He Shi is obviously the most rubbish fake, why didn't he see it?
Ye Feng nodded and said triumphantly: "Grandpa, grandpa, don't underestimate this Buddha statue, it's a great treasure!"
The two old men couldn't help laughing: "Xiaofeng, don't make fun of your grandpa and grandpa, this thing is a fake at a glance, what kind of treasure is it..."
Ye Feng handed over the Buddha statue in his hand, put it on the chessboard and said, "Grandpa, grandpa, please take a closer look."
Hearing the words, the two old men took turns holding it in their hands and began to watch carefully. After a long time, the two looked at each other and shook their heads.
"It may be that grandpa and your grandfather are blind, and they really didn't see what kind of treasure this is!"
Ye Feng smiled mysteriously: "Wait a moment, I'll go get something." After speaking, Ye Feng got up and walked out.
Each villa is equipped with an independent garage, which is fully equipped with repair tools. Ye Feng went to the garage and took out a wrench for car repair, and returned to the villa.
Ye's father, Ye's mother, and several old people looked at Ye Feng for no reason, wondering what he was going to do next.
bang bang bang...
Ye Feng saw through the skin of the Buddha statue, and landed on the gilt Sakyamuni Buddha statue in the Yongle Year of Ming Dynasty inside, and then began to knock on the Buddha statue with a wrench.
Slowly, the galvanization on the surface of the Buddha statue began to peel off layer by layer. The outer skin of the Buddha statue was made old by using special chemical potions. The corrosion of the potion made the outer layer of skin become rotten and fragile. After a while, the Buddha statue, which was only a layer of skin on the outside, was riddled with holes. Through the messy holes, it could be clearly seen that there was still a gold-plated Buddha statue sitting cross-legged quietly inside.
"Mezzanine!"
The situation in front of me is already obvious. There is a mezzanine inside this Buddha statue, which hides a mystery.
After a while, the old Buddha statue on the outer layer was completely broken, and a clear gold-plated Shakyamuni Buddha statue revealed its true face.
The two old men stood up excitedly, walked quickly to Ye Feng's side and hugged the Buddha statue, staring straight at it, after a long time, they couldn't help sighing.
The outline of this Buddha statue is very clear. It has blue snail hair, a gilt hug on the top, a round face, a white hair on the forehead, fine eyebrows and fine eyes, and even the slightly downward looking eyes can be clearly caught. arrive.
There are three string patterns on the neck of the Buddha statue, wearing a cassock with bare right shoulders, sitting cross-legged with scabs, the right hand is in the mudra of touching the ground, and the left hand is in the mudra of meditation. The base is a double-layer upturned lotus throne. The petals are slightly slender, and the overturned lotus forms an acute angle between them. The bottom of the rosette is slightly larger than the upper part, which is stable and balanced. The upper and lower layers of the rosette are each inlaid with a neat lotus bead pattern.
"What a beautiful Buddha statue, with clear outlines and complete gilding. It is really a rare boutique."
"Grandpa, grandpa, take a look at the deposit below." Ye Feng continued.
According to the words of the two old men, they turned the Buddha statue over. The inscription on the base was very clear, and the inscription "Daming Yongle Nianshi" was engraved in the center of the bottom of the base. .
The gold-plated Buddha statues in the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty are the most valuable of all Buddha statues, just like the incense burners in the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty.
"It turned out to be a gold-plated Buddha statue from the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty..." The two old men opened their mouths in disbelief: "This is an incredible treasure!"
Gilt bronze Buddha statues of the Yongle style are famous for their gorgeous and exquisite clothing and rich and complicated decorations, especially the fine carvings on the crown, tassels, necklaces, and earrings are dizzying and amazing.Concise and vivid, with strong texture, excellent copper quality, exquisite gilding technology, and accurate expression of expressions, it can be called the best of Buddha statues.
This also directly created the Yongle bronze gilt Buddha statue, which has an unshakable position among all gilt Buddha statues.It is also an important reason why Yongle gold-plated Buddha statues have refreshed transaction records time and time again in recent years.
The two old ladies don't know much about antiques, but the old people have a special love for Buddha statues. In their opinion, this Buddha statue is nothing but exquisite.
Ye's father and Ye's mother also opened their mouths in shock!
"Xiaofeng, how did you discover the mystery in this Buddha statue?" After being shocked, the two old men asked curiously.
"Actually, it's nothing, it's just that this thing has been in contact with a lot, and you can feel the difference in weight when you hold it in your hand." Ye Feng smiled and said: "When I bought this Buddha statue, I wasn't sure if there was anything in it. What kind of thing, I just thought that since it could be hidden in the interlayer carefully, it must be a great treasure, so I took it off, knowing that the outer skin was removed just now, and then I saw that it was the Sakyamuni of the Daming Yongle style Mani Buddha."
The Buddha statue of Shakyamuni in the Yongle style of the Ming Dynasty attracted all the energy of the two old men. The two actually picked up the Buddha statue and went to the study to study it carefully.
Ye Feng chatted with his parents and grandma for a while in the living room, then returned to the room and stood up to practice the Nine-turn True Dragon Art.
With his current strength at the early stage of the Yellow Rank, if he can cultivate the Nine-Turn True Dragon Art to the first stage, even the masters at the peak of the Yellow Rank will not be his opponents in the future, even if they are against the peak of the Yellow Rank. Experts can also guarantee sufficient self-protection ability.
Ye Feng knew clearly that for him, improving his strength as much as possible was the most important thing at present.
In the mansion of the Wu family in the capital, Wu Yongliang sat at the desk with a gloomy face, and a man in a black suit stood there respectfully in front of him.
"You mean, that kid is the child of Ye Dongsheng and He Lanxin who recently returned to the capital?"
"According to the current investigation, it is indeed the case."
"Ye family, He family..." Wu Yongliang muttered to himself.
