Chapter 397: Secret Color Porcelain, Live and Death Buckle
Yu Yao thought for a moment and then spoke: "This can't be from the Tang Dynasty, and it can't be from the Yue kiln." The celadon of the kiln, the glaze will not be so transparent. In my opinion, this is not even an old kiln, but like the celadon of the folk kiln in our porcelain capital in the Yuan Dynasty, with an antique shape and an average level. ”
The stall owner laughed dryly, "Young man, you are not very old, and your way is not shallow!"
That being said, stall owners often say this to buyers, but most stall owners are more or less conceited, especially when facing young buyers. said this, but in my heart I still felt that it might be a mouthful, and I like to pretend to be forced.
Yu Yao said, "It doesn't matter if I understand it or not, the important thing is that I just buy something on the desk, and the key is the price." ”
When the stall owner heard the price, he didn't say much, and stretched out three fingers.
If you want to say that the problem of stretching out your fingers is often seen in the antique market, for the stall owner, it is one that can be set one. For old players, they have long stopped eating this set, and if they are willing to say more, they will pay back three yuan and thirty, and if they are not willing to say more, they will directly ask the stall owner to offer a price, don't play this set.
"Old man, you are so old, you still want to be a fingerprint? Yu Yao said.
"Thirty thousand!"
Even if it was a Yue kiln in the Tang Dynasty, the price of ordinary small vessels was twenty or thirty thousand. Don't look at the early year, but the antique line is like this, and it is very common to seek refinement rather than old age.
"It's too high. Yu Yao waved his hand, "Three thousand is about the same." ”
The stall owner pressed his hand, "You better put it down." This is also the ordinary glaze, if it is the secret color porcelain of the Yue kiln in the Tang Dynasty, it is worth three million!"
Yu Yao smiled dumbly, "Old man, you can't think that the more kiln is the more kiln." And even if it is a Yue kiln in the Tang Dynasty, the secret color porcelain is the secret color porcelain, and the ordinary products are ordinary products. ”
Secret color porcelain, is the late Tang Dynasty to the five dynasties of Wu Yue period (including part of the Northern Song Dynasty) Yue kiln of the fine celadon, often presented in the form of tribute, exclusively for the royal family, the common people can not use, glaze formula and production process secret.
The glaze color of the secret color porcelain, borrowing the words of the tea saint Lu Yu, is: the nine autumn wind and dew are more and more kiln open, and the thousand peaks are won in emerald color.
This piece of Biyong inkstone is not a product of Yue kiln, and it is impossible to be a secret color porcelain.
In subsequent dynasties, there has been an endless debate about the secret color porcelain, and there has been no conclusion, because the physical objects handed down are too rare, and the private collectors often do not make it public, and the information exchange in ancient times is far less developed than in modern times, so there are many chaotic views.
It was not until 1987 that more than a dozen pieces of fine celadon from the Yue kiln were unearthed in the underground palace of Fufeng Famen Temple in Shaanxi Province, and the secret color porcelain was unveiled step by step.
Secret color porcelain is the product of Yue kiln, but it is different from ordinary products, from glaze to technology, it is extremely exquisite, exclusively for the royal family, and it is a special boutique in Yue kiln celadon.
With these more than a dozen pieces of secret color porcelain as the "mother book", the subsequent archaeological research is becoming more and more clear, the five dynasties of Wu Yue Guo Qian family tombs, Song Taizong Yuande Li Hou Mausoleum, Song Dynasty Zhou King Zhao You tomb, and even including some of the royal tombs of the Liao State, have found traces of secret color porcelain.
Not to mention, in the nineties of the last century, many people in the antique circle would take out the secret color porcelain separately and say that it was not included in the Yue kiln celadon. Of course, this knowledge is now widespread among players.
In the history of porcelain in China, the Song Dynasty is an extremely important node, because the official kiln system was established in the late Northern Song Dynasty. The secret color porcelain of the Yue kiln in the Tang Dynasty, and the word "Ying" of the Xing kiln mentioned earlier, can actually be regarded as the prototype of the official kiln.
It's just that from the emergence of the prototype to the formal establishment of the official kiln system, it has spanned so many years.
Those who play porcelain know that the gap between the official kiln and the private kiln is too big, and it is in all aspects.
This piece of Biyong inkstone, not to mention that it is not a Tang Dynasty Yue kiln, even if it is, it cannot be mixed with the secret color porcelain in the Tang Dynasty Yue kiln.
After Yu Yao finished speaking, the stall owner didn't have an interface, just looked at Yu Yao. He had already finished the offer, and he didn't agree with Yu Yao's return of three thousand, so he just waited for the key to listen.
Yu Yao thought for a while, "I like this thing a little. So, I shouted one last time, I'm not stingy, you should be happy, if it doesn't work, I happen to have something to do. You can see that I have friends waiting for me!"
Then, Yu Yao gave the price of 8,000.
The stall owner frowned, "It's not that I shouldn't want you, it's really too low." ”
"Really?"
"You young man, I'm also difficult!"
"Good. You're busy. Yu Yao got up and turned to leave.
After walking three or four steps, the stall owner shouted at his back, "Young man, I also spent eight thousand on this thing!"
If you want to indulge in this hand, in the antique shop, buyers often use. However, the hand of the stall owner is also commonly used by the seller, and some people call it "live and dead buckle".
It's a simple and practical little routine.
I tied a rope buckle with the magic trick and tied the knot, but the two ends were pulled apart, like a slipknot. It's a simple hand to play, but it works great.
In the antique stall, when the buyer walks away, whether he wants to get away with it or not, this price should be a psychological high point for him.
If the seller at this price point feels that he can make money, he should call the buyer back.
However, if you don't use the routine of "live and dead" and directly say "come back to you", it is a default to the buyer's offer, such as the eight thousand that Yu Yao said just now.
Therefore, although the stall owner also shouted, it was not a default to say another word. After shouting, he would stare at Yu Yao's performance.
If Yu Yao heard him say that the purchase price of 8,000 also came back, then it means that Yu Yao really likes this thing, and he can add money on the basis of 8,000, add more and less, and the stall owner will improvise.
If Yu Yao doesn't come back after hearing the stall owner's shouting, then 8,000 is the highest price he can offer. The stall owner shouted after Yu Yao walked three or four steps, and then waited for Yu Yao to take ten steps and eight steps, if he could sell, he would shout directly, "Eight thousand for you!"
How could Yu Yao not know the little routine of "living and dead", the most important thing is that the stall owner didn't understand it, and tried his best to flicker on the Tang Dynasty Yue kiln, the price must not be high, eight thousand is Yu Yao didn't want Xiao Ying to wait too high.
So Yu Yao walked simply and decisively.
Sure enough, the stall owner finally called Yu Yao back.
The payment was cleared, and the stall owner also gave Yu Yao a mobile phone number, saying that he usually went to the countryside more and set up fewer stalls, and mostly traded directly with old customers, and contacted more in the future.
Yu Yao nodded, "Old man, this thing is really not a Tang Dynasty Yue kiln, if I don't like this shape, how can I make you earn so much!"
The stall owner smiled, "After the transaction, let's not talk about things." The antique business, if you don't talk about it at the end, you can pick up the leaks, or you can see the eyes, if I still worry about this, I won't live so long. ”
"Yes, old man, you are a person who understands, go first. After Yu Yao finished speaking, he carried his things and went to find Xiao Ying.
