Chapter 45: Dark War
"Oh?" Lao Zhou and Lao Huang couldn't help but look at Pu Jie together.
Pu Jie continued, "I know the fish head too well, his expression is not right! At least, it is not something from the Chenghua Dynasty. ”
"Hey, I thought you had discovered some mystery! I'll just say, you didn't get started at all, where did you get the confidence. Lao Zhou sighed, "Let's go, continue shopping." ”
The three of them continued to stroll, and Yu Yao and Zhong Yu followed the stall owner to a shop not far away.
The stall owner quickly took the keys out, opened the roller shutter door, and invited them in.
The stall owner turned out to be a shopkeeper.
It's just that it's not dawn, and the shops in the Chenguang Road antique market are not open. It seems that the shopkeeper has set up a stall with the trend.
Turn on the lights, close the door, and take a seat.
When I came, the shopkeeper seemed to know the name of "Ghost City Zhong Kui", so he never opened his mouth to return the cup and hold it himself. In fact, Zhong Yu was inconvenient to hand it back in the process, so he held the cup, but kept walking on the side of the shopkeeper, and his hand was slightly raised, and after entering the store and taking a seat, he put the cup firmly on the counter.
"Brother Zhong, sit down for a while, I'll pour you a cup of tea. The shopkeeper spoke. Like the previous stall owner Lao Zhao, he is also older than Zhong Yu, but he is also called "Brother Zhong".
"No, just a quick chat. Zhong Yu waved his hand.
The shopkeeper was no longer polite and sat down. The cups were placed on the counter, and the three of them sat at the table on one side.
"Brother Zhong, you shouldn't know me, but I know your name, if you like it, you can make a price!" The shopkeeper then said simply.
Zhong Yu smiled slightly, "Who said I don't know you?" Meng Fanxing of Lang Runxuan, Boss Meng, mainly made porcelain in the Ming and Qing dynasties. ”
Before Yu Yao came in, he noticed that there was a plaque of "Lang Runxuan" hanging on the door of this store, and after coming in, he looked at the furnishings on the shelves, and first looked at the authenticity, most of them were in the style of the official kilns of the Ming and Qing dynasties.
"Ouch, I'm being self-conscious. Meng Fanxing responded with a smile.
Zhong Yu looked at Yu Yao at this time, "What does Brother Yu think?"
Yu Yao had never gotten up so early before, and he was a little sleepy, so he had to light a cigarette and take two puffs at this time, "It's worth starting, but it depends on the price that Boss Meng is satisfied with." ”
Zhong Yu nodded. Between masters, you don't need to point too clearly, especially in front of the owner. Yu Yao meant two words, and he understood. The first half of the sentence is a vague characterization of the cup, which is similar to his opinion.
"Boss Meng, in that case, you should quote a price that you are satisfied with, right?"
This Boss Meng is good-looking and speaks in a more polite manner, but after Zhong Yu said it, he smiled and waved his hand, saying that Zhong Yu was a big expert, and insisted that Zhong Yu make a price.
Zhong Yu pushed again, "It's still Boss Meng's offer." ”
Meng Fanxing thought for a while, "Selling goods and knowing families." What does Brother Zhong think of this cup?"
In the process of antique trading, this is rarely discussed, because the buyer will not praise it, and the seller must say better. To put it bluntly, no truth.
Yu Yao's heart moved at this time, this Meng Fanxing is shrewd enough! Saying that he is shrewd is not a matter of one or two sentences, but in this series of processes.
Because he knew that Zhong Yu was an expert, and he could put this cup on the stall, the connoisseur could see at a glance that he didn't regard this cup as a really good thing, at least the price he received would not be too high.
So, he asked Zhong Yu to make an offer. Zhong Yu insisted on it, so he took a step back and asked Zhong Yu to comment.
Regardless of whether Zhong Yu tells the truth or not, he may be able to find out something. Even if you can't see it, take a moment and figure out how to bid.
At the same time, Yu Yao saw the store and realized that if it weren't for Meng Fanxing and a store, he would not have held something and chatted privately with Zhong Yu with so many onlookers. In case Zhong Yu doesn't want it, it may be difficult to come out if he appears in the ghost market next time. But he has a store, even if Zhong Yu doesn't want it, the store can continue to sell.
And this thing is placed in the store, and it is easier to pay a high price. This also shows that Meng Fanxing brought the Doucai Flower Stone Cup to the stall, and there was another purpose, which was to increase the attractiveness of the stall. There are so many stalls in the ghost market, and there is a thing like this that attracts customers, and more of them bring other goods from the stalls.
Zhong Yu pondered for a moment, "I'm not sure about eating either, I want to go back and study it well." ”
Of course Meng Fanxing didn't believe this, if he couldn't eat it after watching the flashlight at the stall for so long, it would be impossible to have the name of "Ghost Market Zhong Kui".
But there is no way to refute this, because it is a subjective thing to eat accurately.
Meng Fanxing looked at Yu Yao again, "This Brother Yu is Brother Zhong's friend, right?"
"Brother Zhong is here, how can I speak, I still want to wait for Brother Zhong to understand it before asking for advice. Yu Yao snorted. Now that Zhong Yu is talking, he can't say more.
"Boss Meng, you are the owner of the goods, we are not vain, I will open a ten yuan or eight yuan, don't you still have to bargain?" Zhong Yu then spoke.
"This Brother Zhong has taken a fancy to it, and he must give a real price. Meng Fanxing said as he quickly thought about it in his heart.
This bucket of colorful flowers and stone cups is definitely not something from the Chenghua Dynasty. But Zhong Yu made it clear that he wanted to buy it, could it be that there was a problem with his previous characterization?
In fact, this cup was received from a shoveler according to the modern imitation of goods.
Nowadays, the hands of shoveling land may not be all old goods. Moreover, now the old households in the four miles and eight townships have learned to buy high imitations and others to collect them, and some people will even bury them first to do the bureau of "accidentally digging it out".
Doucai flower stone cup, if it is the genuine product of the Chenghua Dynasty, according to today's market, it is rushing to hundreds of millions. But Meng Fanxing only received 10,000 yuan from this cup, and he also set up a plate from the Guangxu Folk Kiln.
10,000 can only be the price of modern high imitation.
If it is 10,000 purchases, it is more appropriate to give hundreds of thousands to the local tyrants, firstly, to let the other party have the psychology of picking up leaks, and secondly, it is not small to make money. It's too high to sell, and it's too low to make a small profit. This is also the direction he originally set.
didn't want to kill a "Zhong Kui" halfway, he can take a fancy to it, is it not a modern imitation?
If it is neither a modern high imitation, nor a thing of the Chenghua Dynasty, it is a high imitation of other eras. There are still many possibilities.
In the Ming Dynasty, from the beginning of the Jiajing period, there were imitations of Chenghua Doucai, and in the Qing Dynasty, there were many Qing dynasties. Later, there were also in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China.
If it is an imitation of the official kiln of the Ming Dynasty or the Qing Dynasty, it will be more than hundreds of thousands. But if it is an imitation from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, then hundreds of thousands are too high.
Meng Fanxing pondered and pondered, and suddenly sighed in his heart: This is still not in place!
If you want to say that ordinary goods are ordinary, anyone can say that they are very different, but when it comes to high-end things, they miss a fraction of a millimeter, and they are a thousand miles wrong.
Zhong Yu is a master, and the surnamed Yu next to him is obviously not far behind.
Dark warfare is psychological, but the real thing is right in front of you, and shrewdness alone is not enough. Meng Fanxing suddenly had a feeling that he understood what it meant to be high and low in water.
