It was precisely because Mu Yi didn't want to offend Zhang Tianyuan, and he couldn't figure out the painting, so he didn't bid again after that.

Hu Li was not very happy in his heart, selling this painting for 20,000 yuan made him more or less disappointed, according to common sense, this thing should not be so cheap.

He still had a hint of anticipation, so he looked down and said very slowly: "Pick up the leaks, this is a real ancient painting, 20,000 yuan is equivalent to giving it away for nothing." I'm counting three now, and if there's anyone else who wants to bid, then hurry, and then it's too late to regret it. ”

"20,000 yuan at a time!"

"20,000 yuan twice!"

Here, Huri paused for a long time, not looking dead.

Mu Yi said angrily: "Hu Li, you are happy, I have never seen such a count, is it a waste of everyone's time?"

Hu Li smiled awkwardly, and finally had to accept the status quo: "Okay, 20,000 yuan three times! This painting of Yan Liben's "Picture of the Emperors of the Past Dynasties" copied by the famous artists of the Song Dynasty in later generations belongs to Mr. Zhang. ”

"Hey, that's right, where is it so verbose, aren't there more good things in the future, are you still afraid that there will be no money to make?" Mu Yi said with a smile.

Hu Li nodded, in fact, think about it, the painting itself is just an appetizer, and the next thing is the point. It is said that this black market auction is all temporarily organized, and the unsuccessful auction of objects is also a frequent thing, although 20,000 yuan is not much, but the cost must be preserved, so he really has no reason to continue to dwell on this thing, not to mention that as Mu Yi said, there will be better things in the future. You can't just dwell on it.

Because after taking the photo, he paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other, Zhang Tianyuan took the painting. Then I paid the bill directly by swiping the card, and the other party prepared a credit card machine. It's very convenient.

Nowadays, very few people will take out cash on this occasion, because it is too dazzling, and others don't know how much money is in the card, so it is not a temptation, but if you take a box of cash, it is simply seducing others to commit a crime.

Although the auctioneers who come here are rich people and may not care, don't forget. The organizers of the black market are not all rich people, you are like those bodyguards, and then Huli, these are actually working for the bosses behind the scenes, they don't have much money, in case they see the money, it will be a big trouble.

This is someone else's territory, if you can be cautious, then you should try to be cautious. Zhang Tianyuan didn't want to get into trouble.

After the transaction was completed, Zhang Tianyuan returned to his seat, and Zhang Rusheng hurriedly came over and said, "Teacher Zhang, give me your painting to take a closer look." I didn't have time just now, but now I can take a good look at it. ”

Zhang Tianyuan did not refuse, although he knew that this painting must be an ancient painting. However, it is not clear who the specific author is, and if you can know who the author is through the appreciation of Zhang Rusheng. It would be absolutely beneficial and harmless to him, so why wouldn't he do it?

"Absolutely. Zhang Tianyuan took the painting out of the box. Then he carefully handed it to Zhang Rusheng.

Ouyang Xiaodan on the side saw Zhang Rusheng's approach, and he didn't understand it a little, so he asked: "Old Teacher Zhang, since you like it, can't you just buy it yourself?" ”

This is naturally Zhang Tianyuan.

Zhang Rusheng said with a smile: "You don't understand, many people here are watching me cook, if I bid, they will definitely be competing in a swarm, and then I may not only not be able to shoot, but will also be cheap on the black market." Mr. Zhang is my friend, so naturally I won't fight with him. ”

When he said this, his voice was very low, and at this time, everyone else in the room was discussing what the next lot would be, so except for Jun Ruhai, Ouyang Xiaodan and Zhang Tianyuan, who were in front of him, they couldn't hear it.

"I'm very novel, I haven't seen Mr. Zhang for more than a month, and I'm good at it. You didn't even look at it just now to conclude that this thing is real?" Jun Ruhai asked curiously.

"I can see something, it's just blindness, I heard the Confucian teacher say that, and I thought that this thing might be a thing from the Song Dynasty, anyway, it's only 20,000 yuan, and it won't be a loss to buy it back." Zhang Tianyuan hurriedly waved his hand.

"You kid didn't tell the truth. Jun Ruhai doesn't believe Zhang Tianyuan's nonsense, when he auditioned for works in the background of Huaxia Treasure, but he has seen Zhang Tianyuan's ability, he will definitely not believe Zhang Tianyuan's blind statement.

"Hey, hey. Zhang Tianyuan just smiled, and did not justify, if he said too much, he would lose, so it was safer not to say it.

"Is he that powerful?" Ouyang Xiaodan glanced at Zhang Tianyuan in disbelief, in fact, she had always felt incredible, Zhang Tianyuan was only twenty-five years old, why did he have such a powerful ability, it was completely incomprehensible.

"Yes, why not! Your little boyfriend is a real master, hidden deeply!" Zhang Rusheng also gave a thumbs up and said: "You must know that it took me about ten minutes to judge the age of this thing, but what about him, you saw it, so he went up and took a look twice, and decided to buy it, I think his angle of appreciating things should be different from ours, so he will be so stable and fast!"

"I said, Teacher Confucius, don't brag about me. How can I be so powerful, tell you the truth, I like to copy the works of the ancients, although this painting has not been copied, but I have copied other paintings of Yan Liben, so at a glance, I know that this thing is very good, let's say, whether it is from the Song Dynasty or not, it doesn't matter to me, just this painting, it is enough for me to collect. Zhang Tianyuan felt that it was really impossible not to explain, this Jun Ruhai and Zhang Rusheng were about to lift themselves to the sky, this is not good.

He must not let the people around him think that he is a big expert, otherwise as long as he bids next, it is estimated that those people will follow, and then it will be troublesome.

"This makes sense! I've heard that you're good at copying, so why don't you show us when you do?" asked Zhang Rusheng.

"Naturally, there is no problem, when will we get together with Teacher Confucian and Boss Jun, if you don't dislike it. I can give you two copies of my work. Zhang Tianyuan said with a smile.

At this time, the next lot was also taken.

"Huh, why are there four pieces?" asked Ouyang Xiaodan.

"That's right. There are many teachers who say that today is the Chung Yeung Festival and hope that it will end early. We have considered this problem, so this time we will directly put up four lots, and you can choose your favorite one and then bid on it. After all, it is not an auction house, and many processes can be omitted. Huri explained.

In fact, he is really good at talking, and the reason is not that the photographers want to leave early, but that he himself has just received a call from his family in the background, urging him to go back early for the holidays, and he thought about it. Just leave it at that, it won't affect anything anyway, just shoot things out smoothly.

Things have been put on the table, and each of the four things has its own characteristics.

Two bronze objects, a porcelain vase, and one resembling ancient jade.

On the whole, the workmanship of these objects is not bad, but there are many high-imitation items on the black market, so you have to be careful. The workmanship of the high imitation may not be worse than the real thing, but if you study it carefully, you can still see a big gap.

Because everyone knew that Zhang Tianyuan was an expert in jade, he gave way to it. Let Zhang Tianyuan go to see the ancient jade.

Jun Ruhai went to see the porcelain vase, as for the two bronze objects, because there were no special experts here. So there were more onlookers.

Zhang Tianyuan has now realized the benefits of being an expert, and there are people holding you wherever you go. Slap your ass, for whatever reason. On the surface, anyway, it's pretty glamorous.

There are not many people at the auction this time, so it doesn't seem to be much convenient, but if you change to a large-scale exhibition or auction, others can only watch from the outside, and experts can be brought in, which is differential treatment.

These people gave way to Zhang Tianyuan, Jun Ruhai and Zhang Rusheng, naturally wanting to determine the authenticity of these items through their judgment.

If it were Zhang Rusheng, then he would definitely be honest and wouldn't tell lies, but Zhang Tianyuan and Jun Ruhai are different, these two people say that they are scholars, but they are businessmen, and both of them are very cunning.

Aren't you going to choose with us?

Okay! Then I'll pit you once, and I'll remember it later!

In fact, those people can't help it, under normal circumstances, the auctions on the black market require as few people as possible, so it is generally not allowed to bring appraisers to help, the key is that it is not easy to manage, in case something happens, it will be difficult to do.

You can't bring an appraiser, although these people also know antiques, but they are not experts, they can only follow people like Zhang Tianyuan, Zhang Rusheng, and Jun Ruhai to get wet.

Gao Gu jade generally refers to the jade before the Warring States and Han Dynasty, the jade before the Ming Dynasty is called ancient jade, and the jade before the Han Dynasty is called Gao Gu jade. Gao Gu jade is mainly Hetian jade, which has always been one in a thousand, and most of it has survived to this day in the hands of the Museum of Treasures and a few collectors. In recent years, ancient jade has become the target of collectors with certain strength, and the rich cultural connotation contained in ancient jade has become the motivation for collectors to frequently shoot. Because of its long age, rich cultural connotation and high historical research value, it is sought after by collectors at home and abroad.

Not long ago, a topaz belt hook from the Western Han Dynasty in China appeared in the autumn auction of Christie's in London, with a pre-auction estimate of 100,000 to 150,000 pounds, and after fierce competition among on-site bidders, the final transaction price reached 825,250 pounds, setting a record for the highest jade auction in the Han Dynasty.

Experts from the Imperial Palace Museum once said that the domestic ancient jade market is not very hot today, and the scarcity of the surviving quantity and the abundance of fakes make it difficult to return the price of ancient jade, coupled with the impact of the financial turmoil, the domestic market value of ancient jade is much lower than its true value. In the current situation, it is a good time to collect ancient jade.

Gao ancient jade is mostly used by emperors and royal dignitaries, and it has a thick and profound connotation in terms of materials, craftsmanship and cultural atmosphere. In addition to appreciating the jade cutting skills of the ancients and tasting the historical and cultural connotation of the ancient jade, playing with a piece of ancient jade is like reading the legend of the ancient history.

The high ancient jade of great value, the cutting skills are very exquisite, whether it is bas-relief, openwork, or Yin line carving, are simple and fine, in fact, the "Han Eight Knife" and the double ditch grinding method (also known as "gossamer hair carving") is now more difficult to imitate.

However, being difficult to imitate does not mean that it cannot be imitated, and the current high-imitation experts are really only what you can't think of, and there is nothing he can't do. (To be continued......)
