It is good to speak politely, and the waiter aunt who was closest to Tang Feng heard someone greet her, put down the work in her hand, and walked over with the key.

In modern society, state-run stores are almost extinct, and in addition to monopolizing the industry, only tourist and antique shops, which are never short of customers, have room for state-run stores to survive. The waiter opened the window, took out the Xuande furnace inside with both hands and handed it to Tang Feng, she said, "You can look at it casually." ”

The diameter of this Xuande furnace is only 1 meter, it looks very small, but it is very pressing, and the thing that is not much bigger than a palm weighs eight or nine catties, which is the Xuande furnace refined to close to pure copper. The most famous collector of the Ming Dynasty, Xiang Yuanbian, wrote the "Xuande Bo Treatise" recorded: Xuanmiao with the pardon of craftsmen, refining twelve, each catty of the fine, only four or two ears. This means that after smelting 12 times, only four taels of one pound of wind-ground copper can be left; in the Ming Dynasty, the weight unit was the old system, sixteen taels and one catty, and this is how we call "half a catty and eight taels" came from; that is to say, from raw materials to finished products, the Xuande furnace should shrink by three-quarters.

This Xuande furnace casting is fine, the copper is refined, the style is simple and elegant, the shape is full and vigorous, the pulp shell on the surface of the copper furnace looks colorful, bright, and the copper must contain rare precious metals such as gold and silver; it is smooth as a mirror to the touch, without impurities, and conforms to the characteristics of the leather shell produced by natural oxidation. Tang Feng turned over the incense burner, there are three stove feet at the bottom, and there is a regular script with the word "Xuande" between the furnace feet, and the font is regular and rigorous.

Although Tang Feng felt that the thing was very much like the real thing, and even the best product cast in Xuande for three years, he was not sure at all, this is the current situation of the Xuande furnace, only on the merits, regardless of authenticity, anyway, there are more than 18,000 genuine facts, and most of them are likely to encounter the real one on the market, and anyone may encounter the imitation.

Tang Feng handed over the Xuande furnace to Liu Yue, and Yue looked at it for a long time before asking Tang Feng, "What do you think?"

Tang Feng said noncommittally: "I can only say that the quality is high, don't keep asking me, what do you think?"

Liu Yue said: "The texture and condition of this Xuande furnace are good, there must be a process of sprinkling gold and gilding and cutting gold in it, but I can't see how much gold is contained." "The gold content of the genuine Xuande furnace is about three percent, not to mention that the naked eye distinguishing instrument cannot detect it in a non-destructive state.

Tang Feng asked the waiter's aunt, "Sister, how much does this Xuande furnace cost?"

The waiter pointed to the price and said, "80,000." ”

There are also benefits to state-run stores. They are too good at making random offers, and they are never allowed to bargain. Love or not. Tang Feng thought for a moment. said, "I want it." Then he pulled out his bank card

After the attendant left with Tang Fengdi's bank card. Liu Yue asked Tang Feng strangely, "Do you see that it's really imitation?"

"You think too highly of me. Who can see this?" Tang Feng shook his head. Then he said, "But." I didn't buy it to sell the land. My grandpa loved this. ”

Tang Feng planned to go back to his hometown in Sichuan after a while, and his grandfather picked it up. His grandfather had seen the real Xuande for three years, and the best Xuande furnace was also unrecognizable, and the old man couldn't recognize the real imitation. Otherwise, Tang Feng would have learned it a long time ago. Since I want to go home, I have to bring something back to the land. This Xuande furnace came at the right time.

"Your grandfather?" Liu Yue asked, "So the old man can see it?"

"I can't see it, but I can take it back and let him study it. Tang Feng said with a smile: "Even if it is imitation, his old man will not be unhappy, no matter what, this is also what his own grandson gave him." ”

After signing the bill and paying the bill, Tang Feng put the Xuande furnace in his backpack and walked out of the antique shop with Liu Yue, Tang Feng asked Liu Yue: "Your antique appraisal water quality is also very high, why don't you buy antiques yourself?"

Liu Yue chuckled and said, "It's not easy, because I don't like it." ”

Antiques, should be appreciated but not appreciated, what artistry, ornamentation is just intuitive feeling, look comfortable, really to study in depth, then only boring, Tang Feng grew up in this kind of boring, he sighed, said: "Actually, I don't like it either, I study antiques for money." ”

Liu Yue said with a smile: "Making money is the goal of most people's lives, and I don't even have this kind of goal, in comparison, you have to be a little better than me." ”

Tang Feng teased her and said, "You are born in a blessing and don't know how to be blessed." ”

"Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. Liu Yue said: "You don't understand, don't talk about this, let's go, go and see other places." "Compared with other antique trading markets, the antique trading and distribution center of the Ming Tombs is much inferior, and the two antique masters have been around for a long time but have no gain.

"Hmm. Liu Yue's mouth curled, revealing a cute expression, and said, "I didn't expect this ghost place to be so bad, and it couldn't stand the test at all." ”

"You can whisper. Tang Feng frightened her and said, "This Ming Tombs is a real ghost place. ”

"Cut, if you don't come, will people in archaeology still be afraid of ghosts?" Liu Yue snorted lightly and said, "Let's go back." ”

On the way back to downtown Beijing, their car passed through the East Third Ring Road, Liu Yue was very disappointed with the trip to the Ming Tombs, she said to Tang Feng: "This is very close to Panjiayuan, today is Saturday, all the shops and stalls there are open, do you want to join in the fun?"

"Well, let's go now, then. Tang Feng nodded in agreement, and he said, "I haven't been over there for a long time, maybe I can meet something good." ”

Said to go, it didn't take long for the two to come to Panjiayuan, just walked through the archway of Panjiayuan antique market, Liu Yue pointed to an antique shop in front of him and said, "Hey, there is a newly opened antique shop there." ”

Tang Feng said: "The new store is good, let's go and have a look."

"Tao antique market pays attention to the new not the old, the new store opens, in order to attract customers, things are generally better, of course, this is relative to the old store, how can the antique store not sell fake.

The two walked into this antique shop called "Samsara", specializing in black porcelain, the store's hall is designed in an antique style, and the shelves of imitation mahogany are filled with all kinds of black porcelain, saying that it is porcelain, and it is easy for a layman to mistake it for pottery, and the appearance of black porcelain looks very much like pottery.

Black porcelain is known as the porcelain altar "black peony", is a kind of black high temperature ~ porcelain, he is a variety developed on the basis of celadon, created in the Eastern Han Dynasty matured in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, flourished in the Northern Song Dynasty. In ancient China, there were a large number of folk kilns to fire black porcelain, and it was also the daily porcelain of the Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. The black porcelain fired in Deqing kiln in Zhejiang, Ding kiln in Hebei, and Jizhou kiln in Jiangxi are all famous, and the most famous black porcelain comes from

kiln, the kiln site of the kiln is in Shuiji Town, Jianyang City, northern Fujian. Because: Tianmu Mountain, when black porcelain was introduced to Japan, the Japanese collectively referred to black porcelain as Tianmu porcelain, some people say that the name of Tianmu porcelain comes from Tianmu Mountain, Zhejiang, in fact, it is a misreading.

The service spirit in the opening of the new store was full of spirit, and a guy came up to greet him warmly, and he said to Tang Feng and Liu Yue: "Welcome to ask the two of you what kind of black porcelain you need, our store has it"

Knowledgeable people don't like to listen to the sales pitch of the store the most, Tang Feng had to interrupt the guy's words, he said politely: "Let's take a look and then we'll be busy with you." ”

"Hey, you are" Liu Yue is of course more attractive than Tang Feng, the guy just paid all his attention to her, hearing Tang Feng speak, he began to pay attention to Tang Feng, this attention to the wind was recognized by him, his tone quickly became affirmative and said: "You are Mr. Tang! Great, the brothers have seen your show really wonderful." ”

People in the antique industry are also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and those at the top know that insiders are dismissive of treasure appreciation shows like "The Shengshi Collection" that hint at getting rich overnight, but those at the lower levels love to watch it. Tang's good performance left a deep impression on the audience, and it was not surprising that he was recognized.

"Brother, I see sir. ”

"It's really Mr. Tang!"

"Hello, Mr. Tang!"

In just a few seconds, all the guys in the store surrounded him, Tang Feng was born from the grassroots, of course he would not ignore them, and his apparent politeness was by no means a perfunctory disguise. But his heart is somewhat depressed, there are gains and losses, although being on TV can increase the popularity of Chinese stone and bring good business, but it will also bring endless trouble to Tang Feng, just like now, it is difficult to be recognized and pick up leaks with peace of mind.

After a long exchange of pleasantries, a guy finally said, "Let's not disturb Mr. Tang, let him shop for things in peace." ”

"Hmm. The guy from before nodded to his companion, turned to Tang Feng and said, "Mr. Tang, you can look at it casually, just say hello if you like anything." ”

"Huh. After the three men left, Liu Kou smiled, and he said, "Mr. Tang is a celebrity now." ”

"Hey. Tang Feng shook his head and said, "I don't." "Tang Feng is shy by nature and is not used to being noticed.

Yue said: "In order to save time, let's split up and find out who has the greatest ability." ”

Tang Feng nodded and said, "No problem." Then, Tang Feng and Liu Yue began to select the possible genuine ones among the piles of imitations.

After a while, two more customers walked into the antique shop, these two people were dressed in suits and leather shoes, and their hair was combed to be shiny, and they looked very energetic.

Tang Feng hadn't paid much attention to these two people, but after hearing their conversation, he couldn't help frowning.

"Dasang, Panjiayuan is the largest thrift market in China, I believe there must be something you like here" The person who spoke did not forget to nod frequently when he spoke, and looked very polite, this person was in his thirties and wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses.

There is no big surname in China's hundred surnames, and even if there is, no one dares to name it Sang, isn't this looking for a draw?

This man was probably Japanese, he was in his forties, dry and thin, with a cleanly shaved beard and a blue glow on his face, not as obscene as the Japanese in revolutionary movies. This "Da Sang" spoke very authentic Chinese, and he said to the gold wire glasses: "Thank you Xiao Jun." ”

It cannot be said that the Chinese who learn Japanese are not good, but in the first batch of traitors, the Chinese who can speak Japanese are definitely the majority; it cannot be said that the Chinese hate the Japanese, but those who know cultural relics certainly do not like this country. However, Tang Feng's most disgusting thing is not the Japanese, he is even more disgusted with the Chinese who wears gold wire glasses, although translation is also a legitimate profession, but he doesn't need to nod to a Japanese on Chinese soil, what do you let other foreigners think of Chinese?

It's not surprising to see Japanese people in antique shops that deal in black porcelain, and Japanese people have a great respect for black porcelain. Among the black porcelain, the most valuable variety is the "Yao Chang Tea Cup", which is known as the "Yao Chang Tianmu Cup" by Japanese academics. At present, all three of the world's only remaining Yaobian tea cups from the Song Dynasty in China are in the collection of Japan, and the Japanese regard these three Yaobian tea cups as Japanese national treasures, and they are only allowed to be exhibited once every seven to ten years.

There are Japanese people appearing, of course Tang Feng has to be more careful, in case they buy the real thing, they can't come back, Tang Feng is watching here, and Liu Yue over there shouted: "Tang Feng, come over quickly." ”

Liu Yue must have made a discovery, and Tang Feng walked over quickly.

Tang Feng and Liu Yue are looking for the real thing, and Da is also looking for the real thing, three people have a goal, unfortunately, Liu Yue and Da collided, and they took a fancy to a rabbit tea cup at the same time. Fortunately, Liu Yue's movements were fast, and she took the rabbit tea cup in her hand first, after all, it was a girl, Liu Yue was a little scared, and hurriedly called Tang Feng to come over to help.

When Tang Feng arrived, Liu Yue was looking at Da with a wary face, Da smiled politely, and said to the two, "You guys take a look first." ”

Tang Feng took the rabbit tea cup in Liu Yue's hand, and observed it carefully, this tea cup has a skimming mouth, shallow circle feet, a large mouth and small feet, and the shape is like a funnel. Liu Yue's vision is very accurate, this rabbit tea cup is very much like the real thing, it has Shi ~,~ moist inside and outside, ~ the surface from the brown yellow of the mouth of the cup to the black at the bottom of the bowl, the brown yellow ~ above the surface, covered with shades of shades, zigzag and irregular, like rabbit hair like natural ornamentation.

The more Tang Feng looked, the more confident he became, he moved the rabbit tea cup closer to the light, and inspected the color of the glaze at the bottom of the lamp by the light. These qualities are not difficult to observe, and anyone who has carefully observed this rabbit teacup will find it, but the difference between the real and the fake is in the subtleties, which only antique connoisseurs can feel, and it is really difficult to describe in words. However, the masters are not only Tang Feng and Liu Yue, but also big, at this moment, he quietly glanced at the gold wire glasses.

Tang Feng made a decision and decided to buy this rabbit teacup, he said: "Boss, collect the account, I want this bowl." ”

"It's coming. The boss walked out immediately, but the boss hadn't approached this side yet, and the gold wire glasses took the first step to meet him, not knowing what he whispered to the boss, and the boss couldn't stop nodding.

Tang Feng and Liu Yue glanced at each other and felt that something was wrong. (To be continued.)
