Chapter 43: Victory in the first battle
Speaking of the level of identification, the seriousness of the antique dealer's appraisal of antiques is intolerant of experts who encounter inaccurate antiques can also use inaccurate antiques to prevaricate the past, antique dealers can't, they must get results, and it is an accurate result. Because if they don't pay attention to it, they will lose business opportunities, and once they lose all their own money, who doesn't feel sorry for their own children? Therefore, regardless of whether they sell genuine products or new fake products, at least they have a spectrum in their hearts. Just imagine, if the Palace Museum had not collected this jade seal, the "treasure of retribution and peace of the people," would the boss of the seal in the world still think that this jade seal was imitation?
Therefore, the boss said that this jade seal was imitated, and it was not entirely out of his own judgment, because the authoritative conclusion was there, and he himself had no confidence. The problem is that this thing looks real, and it happens that Yuan Shikai has also imitated it, and the boss naturally judges this jade seal as an imitation of the Republic of China. Tang Feng is different, he first insists on himself in terms of antiques, and then considers the conclusion of authority, and when the two conflict, he will abandon the latter, which is the opposite of him and the boss.
After thinking about it, Tang Feng finally decided to take a gamble, he gambled his own judgment, betting that Christie's or Sotheby's would dare to run this business, and the 20% commission commission was not given in vain, so these guys could not spend more effort.
Tang Feng said: "Okay, 200,000 is 10,000, I want this thing." ”
"Okay, it's refreshing enough!" "Hey, I made an extra 20,000 yuan to say less, can the boss be unhappy? At least it's cool now, but in the future, it's hard to say whether it's crying or laughing."
Alas, the other person is refreshing, but he can only be happy like this once recently, he takes off his backpack, unzips the other compartment, and takes out the last 2 cash and gives it to the boss. After putting away the jade seal, Tang Feng, who only had a thousand yuan left around him, walked out of the seal seal world with Lin Muyu and Yuan Wei, he looked at the time and said, "Let's go back?"
Lin Muyu nodded and said, "Well, let's go." ”
Back at the Lin family, Tang Feng said hello to Lin Muyu's parents and uncle and then slipped into Lin Muyu's room, the Jiangnan woman's room was elegant and warm. Tang Feng, who had been running around all over the world, lay on her bed, Lin Muyu walked in with a cup of tea, she pulled Tang Feng up and said, "Don't sleep." ”
Tang Feng said: "Mu, I want to go to Shanghai tomorrow." "Shanghai is the leader of the Yangtze River Delta, as early as 1994, one of the world's two largest art auction houses, Christie's in the United Kingdom, founded in 1766, opened in Shanghai, and Sotheby's, another international auction house alongside Christie's, also set up an office in Shanghai.
I am afraid that the domestic sales house will not be able to take these two things in Tang Feng's hands, so I can only take them to these two auction houses for auction.
Lin Muyu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be with you." ”
Tang Feng said: "Your people won't be angry, right?"
Lin Muyu smiled. said: "You're all like this." We don't blame our locals. ”
"Then it's decided. Tang Feng said: "After dinner, we will also go to Slender West Lake, not for antiques." Just for fun. Antiques are old-fashioned. Not romantic enough. ”
Lin Muyu said: "It's pretty much the same. ”
"But there is a one," Tang Feng said before he finished speaking, "I know." Without a cousin. ”
The elderly also know that young people are active, after dinner, Lin Muyu's parents took the initiative to ask them to go out by themselves to have a good time, before leaving, Lin Muyu's mother pulled Lin Muyu and said a few words Feng knows, this is making a summary report This level, Tang Feng is Lin Muyu's boyfriend in the real sense. Young people are open, but the opinions of the elderly should also be listened to, and today's ordinary families probably don't care about a harmonious society, and they just want to have a harmonious family.
Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, a city is like a person, when the rings of the years run over, the rise and fall of the past experience of glory and disgrace are finally weathered into memory, occasionally when the mind is quiet, will remember, savor the feeling of reminiscing the past, we call it - remembrance.
Yangzhou is a city surrounded by water, nourished by water, and pampered by water, and the affection of flowing water gives the city a different kind of elegance, perhaps it is precisely because of this that Tang Feng will have a tender woman like water. Modern writer Yu Dafu once commented that the bright moon of the 24th Bridge is one of the four major autumn colors in southern China.
The green mountains are hidden in the water, the grass in the south of the Yangtze River has not withered at the end of autumn, and the twenty-four bridges are bright and moonlit nights, where is the jade to teach to blow Xiao.
In the minds of Yangzhou people, the 24th Bridge is composed of a falling sail plank road, a single-hole arch bridge, a nine-curved bridge and a blowing pavilion. As for the 24th bridge, there are different opinions so far, and the charm of ancient poetry is always not lacking in a hazy artistic conception that can only be understood and cannot be spoken. The 24th Bridge Scenic Area is close at hand, Tang Feng asked Lin Muyu: "You are the master, I am a guest, what do you think the 24th Bridge is the bridge?"
Lin Muyu said proudly: "You can't bother me with this." She stretched her jade arms lightly, pointed to a single-hole stone arch bridge not far in front of the two of them, and said: "That stone arch bridge is the twenty-four bridge, this bridge is 24 meters long, 24 meters wide, there are 24 steps at each end of the bridge, and the bridge railing has a total of 2
24 white jade railings, so this bridge is called the Twenty-Four Bridge.
"Just fool around. Tang Feng laughed and said: "Du Mu didn't measure it when he wrote the poem, and these twenty-four bridges were built by later generations. As the two spoke, they walked up the Twenty-Four Bridge.
Lin Muyu said: "What you are asking about is the twenty-four bridges in reality, not the twenty-four bridges in the poem, why is it wrong?"
At this time, the two people holding hands had already walked on the bridge center of the Twenty-fourth Bridge, Tang Feng looked at Lin Muyu and said, "Let's ask each other questions, okay? ”
"What is the punishment? Let's talk about it first. Lin Muyu asked.
Tang Feng smiled and said, "Kiss me if you answer a question incorrectly." ”
Lin Muyu pouted and said, "That deliberately answered wrong." ”
A long, long time ago, a merry and young emperor dug a river because of a flower in his dream, he fell in love with the city, but ruined a dynasty. It was a night of fireworks and bright moon, with colorful lights shining and red sleeves dancing, and twenty-four jade blowers performed a new song that had just been learned for the emperor, who was intoxicated by this scene and indulged in a dream that was both fantasy and reality.
Xiao Sheng melodiously covered up the hidden killing in the distance, and Xiao Sheng melodiously froze the back of the Bo Ming Dynasty. When everything is a long time ago, this stone bridge that has been soaked by the sound of the twenty-four jade people has a name that I don't know whether it is fortunate or unfortunate - Twenty-four Bridges.
When the autumn moon is in the sky, the layers of forests are dyed, the fruit is intoxicated, the quiet and soft waves of the small bridge and flowing water reflect the lights, Lin Muyu's soft voice that seems to be there sounded in Tang Feng's ears, and she called softly: "Tang Feng." ”
Tang Feng turned his head, the woman's starry eyes were slight, waiting for warmth, in the face of this situation, what about the Yangzhou dream in ten years? His hand put on her slender waist, only slightly bowed his head, his lips gently covered her lips, she opened her mouth slightly, his tongue slipped into her soft mouth, so, between the long night air, the melodious sound of time and space was faintly heard in the ears, but, this flute no longer has the thickness of history, some are just whispering warm and romantic, even the usual unbearable words have become as natural as this scenery, Tang Feng said: "Mu Yu, we haven't seen each other frankly for a long time." ”
"Huh. Lin Muyu smiled and buried her face in Tang's chest, she said, "Tang Feng, you are getting worse and worse. ”
Tang Feng said to her: "While we are young, we should work harder, right, go to the hotel first?"
"Hmm~ Lin Muyu shook his head and said, "I'm not going." ”
"You dare. Tang Feng picked up Lin Muyu and said, "If you don't go, you have to go." ”
The next morning, Tang Feng went to Lin's house to pick up Lin Muyu, had lunch, said goodbye, and the two went to Shanghai together. Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai are one of the most densely populated areas in China, and Zhenjiang is on the other side of Yangzhou, with very developed intercity transportation, and Tang Feng and Lin Muyu arrived in Shanghai more than three hours later.
Northerners, especially northerners, will always look down on Shanghainese men, they think that Shanghainese men are bloodless, and they just talk and don't do anything. This may be the reason why there are hooligans in Shanghai and bandits unearthed in the Northeast, Shanghai's urban character is prone to big hooligans like Huang Jinrong and Du Yuesheng, and it is also easy to produce big bosses like Zhou Zhengyi and Chen XX. And the Northeast is prone to a mountain carving, Qiao Si, who will be unlucky sooner or later, the underworld will be whitewashed sooner or later.
Christie's Shanghai Centre on West Nanjing Road was hosting a preview of Christie's Hong Kong's 2010 Spring Auction in Shanghai when Tang and his team arrived. Carrier-class auction houses like Christie's conduct large-scale tours before each auction, and their market positioning is much broader than that of domestic auction houses like Zhu Kee.
Explaining their intentions, Tang Feng and Lin Muyu were led into the living room by the front desk staff, and they were greeted by a Chinese wearing gold wire glasses, who first introduced himself, this person's name is Zhang Mingcheng, a Hong Kong native, and the chief appraiser of Christie's in Shanghai. Zhang Mingcheng shook hands with Tang Feng and asked, "What lot does Mr. Tang need to entrust?"
Tang Feng took off his backpack, took out the ~ lotus petal hexagonal plate and the treasure and jade seal of the people and put them in front of him, and said, "It's just two things." ”
Zhang Mingcheng took the lotus petal hexagonal plate in his hand and looked at it carefully, and said: "Yes, it is indeed a palace appreciator~." ”
Of course, Tang Feng believed that Zhang Mingcheng was a person who knew the goods, but he didn't expect Zhang Mingcheng to be able to recognize the goods so quickly, so he asked, "Why is Mr. Zhang so sure?" The appraiser of the auction house would not say such a thing without being completely sure.
Zhang Mingcheng smiled and said: "Don't dare to say anything else, as far as ~ is concerned, as long as we have entered the Qing Palace, we will not be mistaken." "Tang Feng guessed correctly, they have a roster of palace treasures such as "Jiao Tai Palace Treasure Book", and they are very interested in the antiques that have entered the Qing Palace, so as long as their judgment is correct, it is not difficult to judge that Fang Yuxi is a real fake.
