"Director Ouyang may not know, I have a lot to auction. Yu Yao changed his name.

"I know. Ouyang Song nodded, "However, I want to know what lot Mr. Yu is still interested in?"

"I went to the preview today, and it seems that the highlight is a large red bowl in the glaze of Hongwu. ”

Hearing Yu Yao's ambiguity, Ouyang Song paused, "There is a celadon table, I don't understand it, I don't know if Mr. Yu has noticed?"

"I did notice this, and I also like Yue Yao, but when it comes to interest, I have to look at the real thing. Yu Yao replied very blandly, "But it's a pity that the preview didn't take place today." ”

"Why, Mr. Yu also thinks it's Yue Yao?"

"Before I saw the real thing, I could only trust the experts at Galder. ”

Ouyang Song nodded calmly, and asked instead, "I heard that Mr. Yu and Fu Mancang are very familiar?"

"I know, I can't say I know very well. ”

Ouyang Song's thinking seemed to change quickly, and then he said, "If Mr. Yu has time, after the preview tomorrow, that is, after Mr. Yu has seen the so-called Yue kiln celadon, I want to meet you again." ”

"Then make another appointment?"

"Good. This is my business card. "Ouyang Song's business card is the business card of Zhiyuan antique art brokerage company.

Yu Yao also handed over his business card, which was the business card of Jiangzhou Geguzhai antique shop.

Yu Yao took a step first, but Ouyang Song continued to drink coffee.

The next day of preview, Yu Yao naturally went, and Ouyang Song also went.

This celadon table is not placed in a conspicuous position, but there is a staff member who displays it once at the specified time.

When watching, Yu Yao and Ouyang Song were very focused.

Yu Yao's focus is on the bottom. Because on the auction catalogue, there are only three pictures, which are the side, the top view, and a partial detail map, and there is no bottom.

After seeing the bottom at the scene, Yu Yao was a little surprised.

This celadon table, a bit strange, other aspects, seem to be consistent with the legendary firewood kiln, only the bottom is a little special, closer to the Yue kiln.

Although there is no actual hand-me-down of the firewood kiln, according to the relevant historical records, the color of the bottom of the exposed tire should be earthy yellow. But this table, the bottom of the tire is yellow and white, and there are traces of polishing.

It is not surprising that it has been polished, after all, it is something that has gone through thousands of years, and it is privately collected for people, polished and trimmed, which makes sense, because there are all kinds of collectors, and some people like the so-called "perfect". But this color is a big doubt.

In this way, this celadon table is a bit different.

But Yu Yao thought about it for a while, and soon was relieved, believing that history is better than no history, and cultural relics have a great role, that is, they can refer to and correct errors and omissions in written historical materials.

This celadon table must not be a kiln.

If it's not a firewood kiln, which kiln is it?

If it is a firewood kiln, then the loess background color in the historical books is problematic, at least part of the firewood kiln is not the yellow background color.

At this moment, Ouyang Song approached Yu Yao and said in a low voice, "The blue lily vase of the Wa Kingdom should not be a firewood kiln. ”

The firewood kiln has been lost for a long time, a celadon lily vase has been exhibited in an art museum in the Wa Kingdom, the glaze is as clear as the sky, once aroused heated discussions, and it is suspected that it is very likely to be the long-lost "firewood kiln" in China.

Yu Yao nodded, he didn't believe it either.

In history, there are many rumors about the appearance of firewood kilns, including the Ming and Qing dynasties, for example, it is rumored that Yan Song once collected more than a dozen firewood kilns, such as Qianlong also wrote poems about firewood kilns. However, because there is no physical appearance, it can only be used as a talking point.

"What does Mr. Yu think?" asked Ouyang Song again. But after asking, he didn't wait for Yu Yao to answer, and turned around and left.

Yu Yao looked at her back and didn't follow.

Only Zhihuang came up, "When did you hook up?"

That's a terrible thing to hear. ”

Cai Zhihuang smiled, "Mr. Sun is here too." ”

Yu Yao was stunned, "Didn't we meet after the auction?"

He changed his mind. Only then did he reach out and point upward, "Meet in thirty minutes." ”

"It's fine. Yu Yao took a deep breath.

Fortunately, Shen Ge was interested in antiques, so Yu Yao briefly talked to her, and went to meet Mr. Sun, the original owner of the celadon table.

This Mr. Sun has a very dark complexion, a thin body, and the shrewdness of a businessman is revealed between his eyebrows and eyes.

The meeting was a suite in the hotel, and after being introduced by Huang Zhi, Mr. Sun said, "I heard that Mr. Yu wants to make a move, just say it earlier, I'll just give it to you directly!"

Polite words always assume conditions that do not exist.

"In the same way, I gave a little more during the auction and asked Mr. Sun to earn back the commission he lost in the auction house. Yu Yao could only say polite words.

The two exchanged a few polite words, and Yu Yao went straight to the point, "Mr. Sun, this Yue kiln celadon table, I heard that it is ancestral?"

"If it's really an ancestral treasure, how can you sell it easily?"

Yu Yao was speechless for a while, as if he had killed the day.

Mr. Sun said, "What do you say? This is my grandfather, who bought it in Shanghai during the Republic of China. ”

"Oh, that's an ancestral heirloom, too. Yu Yao had no choice but to respond.

"Ancestral inheritance is not only passed down from generation to generation, but also has to be solemnly explained. Mr. Sun continued, "This celadon table is considered to be something he likes, but he didn't explain it before he died, that is, it can be decided by the younger generations." ”

"That sounds like the old man is a big collector!"

It's just a pity that most of the collection was lost when he left Huaxia, and this celadon table, because he has always used it as a drinking utensil for drinking good wine, was brought abroad. ”

"This celadon table, you said that you bought it from Huhai, from an antique store or something, and there is no way to check it?" Yu Yao asked instead.

"It's not. Mr. Sun said with a smile, "Since Mr. Yu wants to buy it, and I am friends with Mr. Cai, we naturally know everything and say everything, and the origin of this lamp is still a bit of a story." ”

When Yu Yao heard this, his eyes lit up, and he took out a cigarette to hand it over, but Mr. Sun said no, so Yu Yao took care of himself and listened to him.

"During the Republic of China, there was a Chinese antique shopping mall in Huhai, which was the first indoor antique trading place during the Republic of China, Mr. Yu has heard of it, right?"

"A little bit of it. ”

"Well, this market is still relatively famous. At that time, there were two other types of people who were active in addition to the antique dealers who settled in the store. One kind of person is a runner. ”

The so-called running drum is similar to the baggage, collecting things from door to door, and running to this market to release goods.

"There is another type of people, brokers, who are different from runners, who 'receive' from the market and then use their network resources to sell to powerful collectors. Mr. Sun introduced, "This celadon table is the goods in the hands of a broker. ”
