Zhao Ming deliberately pretended to be embarrassed, and counted his fingers back and forth on the table, "The price of two thousand yuan is indeed a bit high."

You know, once there is a flaw on this porcelain, it is worthless, and in view of my liking for it, so be it, I will give a thousand yuan, and if you can give a thousand yuan, if you don't give it, then I will bear to cut my love. ”

"No, it's just such a broken bottle, you pay a thousand dollars to buy it. Lu Ming glanced at Zhao Ming, and then said in a low voice.

"Brother, if you like it, I'll take you to the antique market over there, how many of these bottles can you buy for a thousand yuan?"

Lu Ming's words naturally fell into the ears of the lobby manager, and the lobby manager thought for a while, as if he was afraid that Zhao Ming would regret it, and hurriedly said.

"How can the defective products there be compared with this vase, since you like it so much, a thousand yuan is a thousand yuan, you take it, it will be regarded as a personal favor for you in our shop. ”

Zhao Ming smiled heartily, this Yongle blue flower fell into Zhao Ming's hands like this, and the lobby manager was also excited, and when checking out, they erased the fraction with a stroke of the pen.

When the two of them came out of the store after eating and drinking, Lu Ming couldn't help but ask, "No, this broken vase is really worth so much money, I think you have been pitted." ”

"You're wrong, it's not me who was trapped, it's the lobby manager, this Yongle blue and white is at least worth this amount. Zhao Ming said, stretching out five fingers.

"Five thousand. Lu Ming said in disbelief, stretched out five fingers, and gestured back and forth, "Okay, brother, then we didn't send it." ”

Zhao Ming shook his head, "It's not five thousand!" Looking at Lu Ming's lost expression, Zhao Ming continued, "It's fifty thousand! If you find a good buyer, it may be even higher!"

"Fifty thousand, then we are not ......" Lu Ming realized that his voice was too loud, so he quickly lowered his head and whispered in Zhao Ming's ear.

"Brother, are you sure? Could it be that you have lost your eyes? Just such a broken vase with black spots is worth 50,000 yuan?"

Looking at Lu Ming's skeptical eyes, Zhao Ming said undeniably, "How can I be wrong, I look at antiques as accurately as you look at a woman's figure, besides, even if you are wrong, it is me who loses and not you, why are you in a hurry?"

"But there is such a big black spot on that bottle, how can you explain it? Even if this antique is estimated to be a defective antique, no one will be picked up by the inn to be used as a vase. ”

Lu Ming shook his head, still skeptical, "Don't look at me, I haven't studied for a few days, and my research on antiques is no less than that of those famous artists."

When I was a child, I also heard my dad talk about some things about antiques, the Yongle blue and white of the Ming Dynasty, the most particular thing is that ...... What's it called?,Pair glaze.。 ”

Lu Ming thought about it for a long time, and finally searched for this word in his mind, and then said to Zhao Ming proudly, "You don't know this, my dad said, its tire glaze is extremely particular."

Its surface must be smooth, without any impurities, and its bottle is very thin, this thin and smooth he occupies, but he has impurities. ”

Zhao Ming smiled heartily, he didn't expect Lu Ming to really understand the knowledge of antiques, although what he described was not a professional term, but the general meaning was really like this.

"What you want to say is not what you mean, Yongle celadon pays special attention to the refining of porcelain tires in the process of refining, so its fetal quality is extremely pure and contains few impurities.

It is famous for its delicate fetal quality, white tire color, moderate thickness of the carcass, and dexterity and dignifiedness, right?"

"Yes, that's right, that's it. Lu Ming nodded approvingly, these words were exactly the same as when he was young, his father told him.

It's just that time has passed, and Lu Ming hasn't been in contact with these things for too long, so he can't remember these technical terms clearly.

"Since you know, why do you still want to buy it?" Lu Ming thought about it for a while, and asked Zhao Ming curiously.

"Then I'll tell you something different, the material of Yongle blue and white is mainly Su Ma Liqing, and there is often a natural halo phenomenon when firing.

The content of manganese in Su Ma Liqing is low and the content of iron is high, so the red and purple tones in the color are reduced in the refining, and under the appropriate heat, it can be burned to produce a rich blue color.

This sapphire blue-like luster, the color is elegant and dignified, bright and eye-catching, and the layers are clear.

There are gains and losses, that is, because Yongle blue and white has a high iron content, it will often be burned in the blue and white part, leaving black spots, a common texture of cobalt iron combined with crystal spots.

It is what you call a black spot, and in the place where the iron content is thicker, it will condense into a black tin light, which will be concave deep into the fetal bone, and there will be a sense of unevenness when touched by hand. ”

Lu Ming watched Zhao Ming chattering endlessly, and his face couldn't help but show a mysterious look, "Big brother, I can't see that you are still an expert in this area."

Your antique skills are much higher than my women's skills, I can only see what size of underwear a woman wears, and you can even figure out her personality traits. ”

Lu Ming said appreciatively, and then looked at Zhao Ming with a flattering face, "Otherwise, big brother, I won't act anymore, and I will follow you in the future."

Do you have any errands to tell my little brother, I only need the antiques you buy at that time, and you can share my achievements. Lu Ming said for so long, and finally said that Zhao Ming's heart was on the road.

"It's not necessary to be a little brother, this is a place where I haven't lived when I first came to this city, and it's not very convenient to live in a hotel, not suitable for storing antiques, so ......"

Zhao Ming said in a tone of voice, the meaning was already very clear, and he sent Lu Ming a refreshing word.

"When you get to the younger brother's territory, how can you still let the eldest brother live in a hotel? This is too indecent, not as long as the eldest brother you don't dislike it, you can go to my house to live, you can stay as long as you want. ”

Lu Ming has been in the rivers and lakes for so long, and naturally understands what Zhao Ming means, if Zhao Ming keeps the antiques in his own home in the future, then he will feel much more at ease.

"In that case, then I might as well be respectful, and you lead the way. ”

Zhao Ming stretched his waist, the problem of eating, drinking and living was solved now, and by the way, he also got a living map as a junior brother for nothing, so it seems that he has made a lot of money.

"It's just that my place is a bit out of the way, and I need my eldest brother to follow me for a while...... By the way, big brother, I still have a question, is it that all Ming Yongle celadon has black markings?"

"That's not necessarily, among the heirlooms, there are also many porcelain without rust spots and black spots, and there are also many blue and white colors, which are extremely elegant and beautiful.

In fact, it is difficult to determine whether the porcelain is made of blue and white materials, and it may be that the purity of the materials is high, or it may be the imported domestic mixture used......" Zhao Ming said unhurriedly.

It wasn't until Zhao Ming followed Lu Ming through the small alleys that Zhao Ming understood what Lu Ming meant by remoteness.

Although his home is also in the center of the city, the center of the city here is much worse than the bustling area he saw just now, it is at the back of the downtown area, and it is full of low-rise houses.

Although these houses are ancient buildings, they have not been completely renovated, so they look very dilapidated on the outside, and some of the buildings have a large demolition letter written in red pen on the wall.

It seems that this should be a development zone, but such a large area with such a dense population is estimated to be a little difficult to develop.

After seven and eight turns, Lu Ming finally stopped at the door of a small house, and took it out of his pocket for a long time before finding the door key.

Zhao Ming originally thought that Lu Ming would be such a foolish person, his room would definitely be messy, but after entering, Zhao Ming found that this was like a scholarly family.

On the walls on both sides, there are all kinds of calligraphy and paintings neatly and orderly, although it looks like the authentic work of a famous artist, but Zhao Ming can see that nine times out of ten they are imitated by later generations.

The position on the wall can no longer accommodate so many calligraphy and paintings, and the shelves in the corners of the four sides are also full, and even a few vases are not forgotten to insert them.

"My old man likes to collect these things, and he used a little money to buy vases, calligraphy and paintings, and finally when he died, he left me nothing, only this room full of antiques.

I don't know if it's true or not, but it's a little bit of thought he left me, so I haven't cleaned up the house, and I've kept it as it was. ”

Although Lu Ming said it lightly, Zhao Ming still heard some sadness from it, but this emotion was well hidden by Lu Ming, and it disappeared in an instant.

As Zhao Ming spoke, he moved a chair from the side, pulled a cloth from the side casually, wiped the chair clean, and placed it in front of Zhao Ming.

"The old man of our family said that this chair is made of agarwood, and it is usually easy to sit on, and I have been offering it as a treasure when I am alive, and I am not even allowed to put anything on it. ”

Zhao Ming gently stroked the carved pattern on the chair, "This is agarwood, and it's also Qi Nan agarwood."

But the pure agarwood only has this one bead, and as for the structure of this chair, it is just ordinary pear wood. ”

At this time, Lu Ming put his eyes on the double dragon play beads carved on the back of the chair, "It turns out that the most expensive thing in this chair is this bead."

If I had known that this was the case, I should have asked him to carry the number to the coffin when my dad died, so that he would not have been reading it all the time. Lu Ming said with a sigh.

"Listening to you keep talking about your father, you must have a deep relationship with him. Zhao Ming didn't know how to comfort Lu Ming, so he had to change the topic and wanted to hear him talk about something happy.

"It's quite deep, people's early education is to learn all kinds of cultural knowledge, and what I have heard the most since I was a child is antiques, and the chats between me and him are mostly around antiques.

Did you see this blue-glazed plum vase? This was introduced to him by a friend of my dad at the time, and the friend also said that he knew that my dad liked this bottle, so he quickly told him as soon as he saw it.

At that time, my dad found many so-called experts to identify, and in the end, the conclusion given by everyone was only eight points true, and it was difficult to judge your authenticity, but my dad seemed to be obsessed with it, and he had to buy this bottle.

I lost all my family's savings and borrowed a lot of money, but in the end I found out that the bottle was a fake, and the friend who introduced me to my dad at that time also disappeared without a trace.

I still vividly remember that at that time, every day after school, I saw a bunch of relatives come to my house to ask for debts, and my father did not pay the money, so they sat in my house and refused to leave.

At that time, my family was so poor that I couldn't even pay my tuition, that is, I dropped out of school from that year, and my mother didn't want to live these hard lives with my father, so she divorced my father and left with her dowry.

My dad couldn't afford to pay for it and couldn't bear so much mental pressure, so he committed suicide a year later.

In fact, I don't want to be an actor for any dream, it's just because I make a lot of money as an actor, and one day I will really become popular, so that I can use the money I earn to pay off my debts.

Even though my relatives didn't bother me about my debts after my dad died, I didn't want to owe them anything.

I want to be able to pay off this debt in my lifetime so that my dad doesn't have to be so sad underground. ”
