Chapter 786: Black Market!
Qiao Zhi and his party had already walked away, and they didn't know that the stall owner surnamed Fan had learned the truth and couldn't accept the result, so he was so angry that he fainted.
This is the case in the antique industry, thinking that he is a praying mantis, but he doesn't know that there are yellow finches behind him.
Luck is important, but a lot of the time it has to do with your knowledge base.
Qiao Zhi is very sensitive to utensils, studies the Imperial Kitchen Sutra, and studies all kinds of ancient porcelain very thoroughly, if you ask him to identify a jade, he must be a layman, but if you want him to study utensils, his level is not as good as that of an antique expert, but the angle of entry is different, so it is easy to get it.
The yellow clay jar I bought, in ancient times, was not used for pickles, but for storing water and filling water, which may follow the tomb owner to be buried, and after being dug up by tomb thieves, I felt that it was worthless, so I abandoned it casually and wandered to the village folk.
When Qiao Zhi studied the vessels of the Sui and Tang dynasties, he saw the description of this pottery, so when he saw it for the first time, he secretly paid attention to it, and after a series of tests, he made up his mind to buy it.
The main thing is that it doesn't cost much, and even if a hundred yuan is thrown into the water, it is not particularly distressing.
As for how much this yellow clay jar is worth, although Zhao Chen didn't say it, it must be expensive, Qiao Zhi was silent on the surface, but he was happy in his heart.
Tang Qi originally brought Qiao Zhi to see the world, but he didn't expect that not only Mei Ling bought a value-for-money thing, but Qiao Zhi also picked up a bargain, and he was a little unwilling in his heart, thinking that with the help of the luck of the two, he could also encounter a good thing.
Qiao Zhi's emotional intelligence is very high, guessing Tang Qi's mood, and accompanying him to the "ghost market" of Panjiayuan to take a closer look one by one, but if you want to find the treasure in this mixed place, how can it be so easy!
After two or three hours of shopping, but there was no gain, Tang Shuangshuang said impatiently: "Fourth uncle, do you still plan to continue shopping?" I feel very tired, why don't we go out and find a place to eat." ”
Qiao Zhi and Tang Shuangshuang have also become acquainted with each other, and joked: "Remember the feeling now, when you pull your boyfriend to go shopping in the future, you must learn to empathize." When you go shopping, your boyfriend's mentality is broken. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't have any boyfriends. Tang Shuangshuang glared at Qiao Zhi, always feeling that he had succeeded in Deser because of his humble success just now.
Tang Qi flipped his wrist, "It's not early, let's turn for another half an hour, let's go out and find a place to eat." ”
Qiao Zhi heard a little loss from Tang Qi's tone, and said with a smile: "Maybe the baby will automatically jump into your hands later." ”
Tang Qi laughed, his mentality was not right at the moment, this was a taboo in antique collection.
The two of them swept all the way along the stall shop, and suddenly a man in a coat jumped out, took out a bracelet from his arms, and shook it in front of the two.
Tang Qi didn't see it clearly, frowned and was about to ask.
The man lowered his voice, "If you want something good, come with me, there are many people here, and it is inconvenient to talk." ”
Qiao Zhi secretly thought that this man was sneaky, it didn't look like a good thing, Tang Qi had always wanted to find something satisfactory today, gritted his teeth, and actually followed the man in the southwest direction, directly out of the gate of Panjiayuan, and continued to walk in, to an inconspicuous express hotel.
Mei Ling looked at Qiao Zhilian, "What's wrong!"
Qiao Zhi frowned and said, "I feel it too!"
Tang Shuangshuang was nervous and excited, "I feel like making a movie, it's very exciting." ”
In addition to the ghost market, there is also a black market. The things in the ghost market, although the things are uneven, but at least they will not involve things that violate the law and discipline, but the things on the black market are not necessarily.
Some of them came by robbing tombs, and some even came by theft and robbery.
If these people want to ship, they will squat in Panjiayuan, looking for some powerful objects, and replace the money for things that are not clean in the future, because most of the sources are indescribable, so the price must be much lower than the market price.
But there is a huge risk in trading with them, you don't know who the other party is, the tomb robbers are better, but they are afraid that they will meet outlaws, and the business will not be negotiated, but they will encounter life danger.
Tang Qi followed the man to the hotel, and he was also remorseful, as usual, he would not do such a dangerous thing.
Entering a room with an area of only about ten square meters, several men who did not look very good looked at them vigilantly.
"Have you been tracked?"
"It can't be plainclothes, right?"
The tallest man, with a scar at the corner of his eye, asked the subordinate who brought someone over, and when he was sure that there was no problem, he said to Tang Qi: "Brother, I have a fate to come here, I have to give you a good price today!"
After speaking, he waved his hand and ordered his subordinates to take out the long box, in which lay a scroll, and the two worked together to open the scroll and spread it flat on the bed.
Waiting for Tang Qi to get closer, the scar said in a deep voice: "It's okay to look, but don't touch it with your hands!"
"Wu Daozi's paintings?" Tang Qi could see at a glance.
Wu Daozi's paintings, even if they are imitated, are worth a lot of money.
Qiao Zhi stood beside Tang Qi, the price of calligraphy and painting was very expensive, but the probability of counterfeiting was also the highest.
This is a "portrait of Yanzi", the paper is yellowed, but there is a degree of relaxation, it should be painted on the best rice paper, the temperament of the Yan Zi on it is detached, the eyes are tense, the clothes are windless and automatic, and there is a great grandmaster's bearing.
Tang Qi calmed down, took out a magnifying glass, lowered his body, and started from the shaft rod of the scroll, observing it little by little, although it is said that this mounting can be from later generations, but it can also see some clues from it, appreciating antiques is not only to look at the object itself, other details are also very important, including the bell marks on those scrolls, can not be let go.
Qiao Zhi's attention was more focused on these people, pondering the identities of these people.
"How's it going?" the scar man waited patiently for nearly twenty minutes.
"The time is too short to see accurately, but judging from the paper and painting style, it should be imitated by the Qing Dynasty painters, the painting is smooth, and the brushwork is good. Tang Qi's inference was the same as what Qiao Zhi thought in his heart.
A master like Wu Daozi, the existing works cannot be lost to the people, but some painting masters in the Qing Dynasty imitated the works, because they were not long ago in this year, so there is a high probability of survival in the people.
Not to mention the authentic works of Wu Daozi, that is, the authentic works of Zhang Daqian, at least the price of one or two hundred million, this kind of thing has become a kind of cultural inheritance, which cannot be estimated with money.
And this work belongs to later generations to imitate the works of everyone in the previous life, and if the author is also a very famous painter, it is also worth a lot. If the author is not famous, the painting is exquisite, not inferior to those famous works, and there is also the value of being collected.
There are no famous works, unified called: anonymous, mostly Song paintings, the Qing Dynasty also has some anonymous paintings handed down, but its value and the Song Dynasty anonymous paintings are far away.
There is also a pure fake, made by modern painters in imitation of the ancients, completely analog, without any deep meaning, and indistinguishable from printed paintings.
"This old man, we have also seen many people, if this painting still fits the eye, we will make a price, and if the price is right, we will sell it to you. If it's not suitable, go out and turn right and forget about today's events. Scar said in a deep voice.
His little brother kept an eye on the ghost market of Panjiayuan for a long time before he chose Tang Qi as his target. It mainly depends on whether the target customer has the intention to buy, and whether they are interested in ancient paintings.
Tang Qi glanced at the scar and said, "Brother, since you asked a very right person, you must have a reserve price in your heart, you might as well say bluntly, if it is suitable, I will definitely not make a counteroffer, if it is not suitable, I will leave." ”
Scar is a straightforward character, "Okay, then be quick, this painting costs fifteen thousand." ”
Tang Shuangshuang frowned and said, "This painting is an imitation, how can it be worth so much?"
Scar raised his eyebrows and glanced at Tang Shuangshuang disdainfully, "It also depends on that you are a woman, if it is a man who says this kind of thing, I will directly blow you out." ”
Tang Shuangshuang saw the fierce and vicious appearance of the scar, and he was not afraid at all, "Who are you scaring about?" Go out and ask who your sister is, what age is it, and she still learns the characters of the rivers and lakes, don't you know that the black is being fought everywhere now?"
Scar's eyes were round, murderous.
Tang Qi hesitated, and lost his opinion for a while.
The price of fifteen thousand is not high, but if it is an imitation work of an unknown person in the Qing Dynasty, the price on the market is only six or seven thousand yuan.
He came here with a spill, and he couldn't buy it at a premium.
Qiao Zhi leaned into Tang Qi's ear and whispered, "If you don't buy it, I'll have to buy it." ”
Tang Qi glanced sideways slightly, and glanced at Qiao Zhi complicatedly, what did he mean by this, did he think that this painting had a good background?
Tang Qi smiled, "That's it, I'm the person who can't stand the agitation the most, fifteen thousand is fifteen thousand, I'll pay for it." ”
Scar had a smile on his face, his mood was relieved, he originally thought that this painting would sell for seven or eight thousand at most, but he didn't expect Tang Qi to really have no counteroffer, and the income exceeded his expectations.
Tang Qi asked Scar for a transfer QR code, and transferred the money to Scar, Qiao Zhi saw that Scar's subordinates were going to clean up the painting, and he moved quickly, and said, "I'll come!"
Tang Qi secretly worried that Qiao Zhi was alert, firstly, because he was afraid that Scar's subordinates would damage the painting, and secondly, because he was afraid that they would do something.
The human heart is sinister, and what you see is not the same as what you receive, which is the usual trick of scammers.
Qiao Zhi carefully rolled the picture, put it in the long box, and said to Scar: "Can you leave a contact information, if there is something good in the future, you can communicate directly." ”
Scar was slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "You give me a contact information, I have good goods to come to you when the time comes." ”
Qiao Zhi took out a business card from his bag and stuffed it into Scar's pocket.
Scar looked at it for a moment and laughed, "No wonder it's a little familiar, I've seen your video." It stands to reason that people like us should be hiding in the shadows and not suitable for making friends, but with your courage today, the transaction is also pleasant, and I have made you a friend. ”
Paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other, and completing the transaction, the group came downstairs, and when they walked out of the alley, Qiao Zhi lowered his voice and congratulated Tang Qi: "Brother, you have picked up a big leak!"
