After Wei Changyu also saw this Xuande blue and white folded waist bowl, Song Peng said with a smile: "How is it, this thing is good, right?"

Wei Changyu asked: "What, do you want to buy it? This is 3.8 million yuan, even if it is cheap, it is not cheap, you are quite willing." ”

Song Peng waved his hand and said: "This has nothing to do with being reluctant or not, now the Ming and Qing dynasty porcelain market is just right, not to mention that this is Xuande blue and white, and it is a treasure like a folded waist bowl, the appreciation potential is very high, I think it is worth buying it at the price of 3.8 million." ”

Wei Changyu pondered for a moment and said, "If it's genuine, three million and eight hundred thousand is indeed okay." ”

Song Peng was surprised: "You mean to say that there is something wrong with this thing?"

Wei Changyu smiled: "I didn't say that, it's just that I'm not very good at Xuande Qinghua, and I don't have confidence in my heart, so of course the conclusion is not so sure." ”

Song Peng smiled, and then asked, "Shopkeeper Meng, what do you think?"

Meng Zitao smiled and said, "The promise that Shopkeeper Liang made before still counts, right?"

Actually, originally he wanted to talk to Liang Qiqi alone about the problem of this folded waist bowl, but Song Peng offered to buy it, so he could only pierce the layer of window paper in advance.

Meng Zitao's words made Song Peng and Wei Changyu stunned, and Song Peng asked a little stupidly, "What promise?"

Meng Zitao said: "That's what I just said, the promise of discovering a fake. ”

Wei Changyu said a little incredulously: "Shopkeeper Meng, is there really a problem with this waist-folding bowl?"

Meng Zitao said: "I think there is a demonic spirit." ”

Song Peng didn't quite believe in Meng Zitao's point of view, not to say that he didn't see anything wrong with this bowl, just to say that with Liang's cautious character, it is impossible for such a precious thing to be seen by only one expert, is there a problem with their eyesight?

But then again, Meng Zitao doesn't seem to be a fool, he would say such things without being sure, and then think of Meng Zitao's teacher. The balance in Song Peng's heart began to tilt towards Meng Zitao again, and he said in his heart, is there really something wrong with this thing?

Song Peng was suspicious there, and Wei Changyu opened his mouth and asked, "Shopkeeper Meng." Can you elaborate on that?"

Of course, Meng Zitao said that there was no problem, picked up the folded waist bowl, pointed to a line on the outer wall decoration, and said: "The first flaw is that there is a problem with the line of this decoration. ”

"What's the problem?"

The two of them stepped forward to take a look. After a while, Song Peng shook his head: "I think it's quite normal." ”

"That's not right!"

Wei Changyu frowned and said, "Isn't this line not done in one go?"

Meng Zitao nodded: "Yes, it should be divided into two strokes." ”

"Is there a problem with splitting into two?" Song Peng looked a little ignorant.

Wei Changyu said: "Aren't you talking nonsense? The official kilns of the Ming and Qing dynasties are all depicted by court painters, and the painting skills of these painters have been tempered thousands of times, and the lines are smooth and accurate.

"Is there no exception?" Song Peng asked.

Wei Changyu said: "This is Xuande Qinghua, and if there are exceptions, it is not worthy of being called an official kiln." ”

Meng Zitao nodded: "At the time of Xuande, the production of porcelain in the official kiln was indeed stricter, not to mention. How could the author have made such a mistake by showing the extremely high painting technique of the dynasty itself? Therefore, it is possible that the author painted according to the template, or that there was something else. But either way, this should be unlikely to be the case with the real thing. ”

Song Peng listened to Meng Zitao's explanation, and also accepted his opinion a little, and asked, "Is there anything else wrong with that?"

"Of course......" Meng Zitao pointed out two more problematic places, although the problems are not big, but it is obviously impossible to appear on the porcelain of the Xuande official kiln.

"I didn't expect it......"

As soon as Song Peng said the beginning, Liang Qiqi walked into the room. He smiled and asked, "What didn't you expect?"

Song Peng laughed evilly: "I didn't expect Lao Liang to break the fortune." ”

Liang Qiqi pointed at himself with his finger: "I want to break the bank?"

Song Peng smiled and said, "You won't forget the promise you made earlier, right?"

Thinking of the words "broken wealth" and "promise", Liang Qiqi immediately reacted: "You don't mean that I have a fake here, right?"

Speaking of which, he saw where everyone was standing. An incredible look appeared on his face: "And you don't want to sue me, the problem is the Xuande blue and white waist bowl, right?"

Song Peng shrugged his shoulders: "Lao Liang, although I know you don't want to accept it, this is the truth. ”

Liang Qiqi was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and picked up the waist-folding bowl to observe. Only then did he raise his head and say, "It seems that I can only ask the three of you for advice." ”

Song Peng waved his hand: "Don't ask me about this, you have to ask Shopkeeper Meng." ”

Speaking of this, he added: "In addition, Lao Liang, don't think too much, I asked the shopkeeper Meng to help me palm the eyes before, and he only pointed out the problem because I wanted to buy this waist bowl." ”

Meng Zitao smiled at Song Peng, and silently thanked him in his heart, although this was true, it was definitely inconvenient for him to say it clearly, Song Peng's words undoubtedly helped him.

Liang Qiqi only wanted to know the result at this time, and arched his hand to Meng Zitao: "Shopkeeper Meng, please also solve my doubts." ”

"Shopkeeper Liang doesn't have to be so polite......" Meng Zitao repeated the reason he just said.

Liang Qiqi listened to Meng Zitao's explanation, and confirmed it with his own eyes, and couldn't help but sigh: "It's really a foot high, and the magic is one foot high!"

He shook his head with a bitter smile, and then said: "I am willing to lose the bet, this thing is priced at three million and eight hundred thousand, do you want cash or an antique?"

In the end, he felt a faint pain in his heart, thinking that he had lost a lot of money, not to mention that he would lose 380,000 yuan, and he had an urge to vomit blood in his heart.

Meng Zitao did not make a direct request, and said, "Shopkeeper Liang, can we go over there to talk?"

Liang Qiqi had some doubts in his heart, but nodded on the surface.

The two walked to the side, and Liang Qiqi asked, "Is there something wrong with you?"

Meng Zitao nodded: "If it's convenient, can you tell me the origin of the waist bowl?"

Liang Qiqi hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is this thing related to something?"

"I can't tell you about the specifics, but if you just received it from someone else, it shouldn't be a problem. As he spoke, Meng Zitao paid attention intently to Liang Qiqi's expression.

Liang Qiqi hurriedly waved his hand: "I just received it from someone else by accident." ”

Meng Zitao smiled: "Then you can rest assured, it is estimated that there will be no problems except that someone will ask you for some details." ”

"Then let me ask again, who are you talking about?"

"Official, you can ask him for the relevant documents then. ”

Liang Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief: "This waist bowl was bought by a friend named Shui Bo when I went to a friend in the porcelain capital on January 9 this year. ”

"Can you give me the address of that person?"

"No problem......"

Liang Qiqi took a pen and paper from Mencius and wrote down the address.

"Mr. Liang, thank you. Meng Zitao took the paper and looked at it, and smiled and expressed his gratitude.

"You're welcome. Liang Qiqi smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Meng, do you want money or things?"

Meng Zitao raised the paper in his hand and said with a smile: "No need, this is enough." ”

"How can this be!" Liang Qiqi shook his head again and again in disagreement, and said: "I am the most important person, if it spreads, where will I have the face?"

Meng Zitao smiled: "The key is that you have already paid me." ”

Liang Qiqi said: "It's just a piece of news, what is this? In addition, as the old saying goes, take people short and eat people softly, if you don't want it, I really feel a little unsure." ”

Liang Qiqi's attitude was resolute, and under the difficulty of being gracious, Meng Zitao could only agree, and chose a jade pendant with a price of more than 100,000 yuan, and said that this was enough.

Meng Zitao's choice was also in line with Liang's inspiration, and the two walked back together.

Seeing that Song Peng and Wei Changyu were chatting happily, Liang Qiqi asked with a smile, "What are you discussing?"

"We are talking about the author of this replica. ”

Wei Changyu said: "I think, with this person's painting skills, there is no need to paint according to the real thing, as long as you understand the essence of court painting, apply the typical picture layout, the proportion of characters and landscapes, and 'create' by yourself, it will definitely be seamless." ”

"This kind of reasoning, I think the author should be able to think, since this is the case, why should he use the foundation to copy the guide zhì to make mistakes?"

Meng Zitao thinks that this problem is really good, generally making these fakes, only some low-imitation painters will use the method of base tracing to paint gourds because they have no bottom in their hearts, and such works are of course easy to goof. But the author of the bowl didn't have to do it at all, which may be a clue.

Everyone discussed it for a while, but of course they didn't come up with anything.

Seeing that the time was not early, Song Peng and Wei Changyu each chose something and bargained with Liang Qiqi alone, and the result was a win-win situation.

Coming out of Liang Qiqi, Meng Zitao immediately contacted Zheng Anzhi and told him about the situation, and the rest of the matter had nothing to do with him.

However, Meng Zitao was also thinking about why he didn't want to have anything to do with the matter of high imitation green materials, but he could meet it every once in a while, and this probability really didn't have to be said.

Chatting all the way, everyone came to a restaurant that served local specialties, and just as they were about to enter the restaurant, they saw the old man who had bought jade from the young man with the sharp beak and cheeks, with a dejected look.

The old man raised his head and happened to see Meng Zitao and them, he was stunned at first, and then his expression became very angry, and he rushed directly towards them: "Wow, you still dare to appear here!" (To be continued.) )
