Chapter 229 Treasure Digging in Antique Street

Although, 2000 is not the era of the whole people to engage in collection, but there is a way is 'gold in troubled times, prosperous collection', the country has been stable for decades, with the large increase of private wealthy people, the vassal elegance of rich businessmen and magnates has become more and more, and the flow of people in the antique city is gradually increasing.

For example, now, the central street of Quancheng Antique City, which is nearly ten meters wide, is crowded with bustling people, and the sound of selling and bargaining in various accents from south to north is endless.

Walking on the street, feeling the prosperous atmosphere of the surrounding market, Liu Dong felt a sense of familiarity after a long absence. Come to think of it, it's been almost a month since he got his ability. He hadn't been here for a month.

And in a month's time, many new faces have been added to the antique city.

"Boss, how do you sell this jade pot spring vase?" Liu Dong stopped in front of an antique stall that mainly focused on porcelain, other calligraphy and paintings, and jade miscellaneous.

The stall owner is a middle-aged man in his thirties who is slightly thin, he is obviously in a good mood after just finishing a business, and when he saw Liu Dong asking the price, his eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "This brother." Good eyesight! This Kangxi blue and white jade pot spring bottle. But yesterday when I went to the countryside to dig up the old house. After a lot of hard work, I spent 20,000 yuan to collect it, since you like it, brother, I don't want more from you, you give a hard fee of 5,000 yuan, 25,000, you can take away this Kangxi official kiln blue and white jade pot spring bottle!"

After listening. Liu Dong smiled, for such a thing of Wang Po selling melons and boasting about herself, he has seen a lot in the Quancheng antique market in the past three years.

And this is also a must-have for any antique dealer, if you don't know how to blow it, how can you buy this thing at a high price.

Liu Dong still remembers a story that Li Lao once gave himself some time ago, the content of the story is like this, saying that the owner of a famous antique shop is looking for a guy who runs the hall, and there are many applicants for a while, and after layers of selection, only two people won in the end.

Because there is only one place. So the owner of the antique shop came up with an exam question.

I casually took down a piece of porcelain from the next shelf and acted as a customer. Then let the two people who won in the end sell the porcelain to themselves.

As a result, the first person with a very solid knowledge of antiques explained all aspects of this porcelain, including its advantages and disadvantages, very clearly, and did not even have to be much worse than the boss. Although the second person is not as profound as the first person, he has added a definition of 'Qianlong official kiln' in front of this porcelain. The second one was then admitted.

When the two asked why, the antique shop owner's answer was very simple, he wanted to run the hall to sell things, not an appraiser.

This shows the importance of being able to say and be able to say it for antique management.

"Boss, you said this is Kangxi's blue and white official kiln?" asked Liu Dong with the jade pot spring bottle in his hand.

"Of course, I, Zhao Si, have been working in this antique street for more than ten years, and these eyes can be described as fiery eyes, as long as they are good things, they can't escape my eyes, so this must be the Kangxi official kiln!" said the self-proclaimed Zhao Si with confidence.

Although the look on this young man's face that seemed to be smiling made Zhao Si's heart beat a drum, but when he thought that Liu Dong was so young, the level of antique appraisal would definitely not be good, so there was no compromise in his words.

At this time, Liu Dong smiled, and in the slightly inquisitive eyes of this middle-aged man who called himself Zhao Si, he said: "Kangxi blue and white porcelain is famous for its fine glaze, bright blue and white, simple and diverse shapes, and beautiful ornamentation. It is mainly divided into three periods: early, middle and late. The early period is from the first year of Kangxi to the 19th year of Kangxi, the middle period is from the 20th year of Kangxi to the 40th year of Kangxi, and the late period is from the 40th year of Kangxi to the end of the Kangxi Dynasty, among which the blue and white porcelain in the middle of Kangxi is the most prominent. ”

"In the early Kangxi blue and white carcass, the glaze was fat and blue-white, there was a shrinkage glaze and small brown eyes, the mouth of the utensils was often brushed with a layer of sauce glaze, the bottom foot treatment was not very delicate, there was sticky sand, not smooth, the common radial jump knife marks in the bottom foot of the utensils, and the shape of the steps appeared on the bottom foot of many large plates and cuts, commonly known as the "two-story platform". ”

"In the middle of the Kangxi blue and white carcass is white and hard, there are few impurities, the carcass is thin and moderately thick, pay attention to repairing the tire, the glaze has two kinds of powder white and pulp white, the powder white glaze has high hardness, the pulp white glaze is slightly loose, there are occasional small open pieces, and there is a bright white glaze. The bottom foot is smooth and delicate, mostly loach-like, rare stone red, the quality of porcelain is significantly improved, the tire glaze is tightly combined, the inner and outer walls of the vessel and the glaze color of the bottom foot are basically the same, and the porcelain tire made of fine washed mud also appeared at that time, commonly known as the "slurry tire" carcass is light. ”

"In the late Kangxi blue and white glaze, the bright green glaze is the majority, the carcass is lighter than the middle period, and the bottom foot is generally flat and neatly cut. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Dong paused, smiled and said to the stall owner: "If it's not detailed enough, can I tell the boss about Kangxi Qinghua's green materials?"

"Don't, don't worry, this brother, I, Zhao Si, have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, if you really want this jade pot spring bottle, then you can tell me a price!" Zhao Si smiled bitterly.

Now no matter how stupid he is, he knows that this seemingly young guy in front of him is an old worm who really knows how to do it! Therefore, the words he used to deal with laymen before don't need to be laughed at and generous.

After listening to his words, Huo Shan smiled, looked at the bottle in his hand, and said: "Although this bottle is not an official kiln, it burns well, it should be the blue and white of the folk kiln during the Republic of China, a thousand yuan!"

"One thousand?" Zhao Si smiled bitterly, "Brother, you are too ruthless in bargaining, when I collect this bottle, it will be more than one thousand, why don't you give it a little more?"

In fact, he didn't lose a thousand yuan, but he just didn't make much. However, profiteers, profiteers, no profiteers, if there is a greater good, who would not want it!

"Rise?" After listening, Liu Dong pondered for a while, then gritted his teeth, "Okay, I'll add two hundred more to you, if you want more, I'll leave!"

Of course, his expression is also fully pretended, Liu Dong knows the difficulty of these antique stall owners, as long as he shows a little flaw and is seen by others, it is not easy to eat this blue and white porcelain vase at a low price.

"Two hundred is too little! Look at this, let's all make a step, one thousand and five, how about it?" Zhao Si said.

"No, fifteen thousand is too expensive!" Liu Dong immediately shook his head and said.

……

Later, after some bargaining, this blue and white jade pot spring vase was finally bought by Liu Dong for 1,400 yuan.

And just when Liu Dong cleared his money and goods and was about to leave, he was suddenly stopped by others.

"Little brother, wait, I don't know if you are willing to sell this blue and white porcelain vase, but the contemptible people are willing to buy it for two thousand!" Hearing this, the people around turned their heads one after another, even Zhao Si, who originally sold this blue and white porcelain to Liu Dong, was no exception.

The speaker was a middle-aged man in his fifties, with his hair combed back, his eyes were not large, his eyes rolled from time to time, coupled with his thin cheeks, and a few sparse rat whiskers on his chin, which gave him a slick look.

"Who should I be, it turned out to be the famous Treasure Pavilion Boss Zhang?" Liu Dong said with a little surprise.

Liu Dong is no stranger to this person, and even as long as he stays in the antique city for a year, there is almost no one who doesn't know him.

And the reason why this person is so famous, in addition to the fact that he does have some ability in antique appreciation, the biggest reason is that his treasure pavilion has the same rules of 'fighting treasures'.

As long as anyone comes to the door with an authentic antique, and after his own appraisal is correct, he can pick out three antiques in his antique shop at random, if they are really found. And after checking that it is correct, then it means that the person who comes to the door to fight for treasures wins, and all three antiques can be taken away. On the contrary, if you can't find it, then you will naturally lose, and after losing, the antique that participated in the treasure fight will naturally fall into the hands of the Treasure Pavilion.

However, since this Treasure Pavilion set this rule, there have been more than ten treasure fights before and after, and basically the Treasure Pavilion has won. Of course, the reason why no one suspected him of cheating was that the Treasure Pavilion had lost, and the only time he lost was to Li Lao of the Agarwood Pavilion.

"Little brother actually knows about me?" Zhang Weihan couldn't help but be surprised.

"Hehe, Boss Zhang's name, who doesn't know in this antique city!" Liu Dong said with a smile.

"Yes, since the little brother knows me, I don't know if your blue and white jade pot spring vase can be transferred to me, Zhang is willing to buy it at a high price!"

"Since Boss Zhang likes it, then I'm willing to sell it to you!" Liu Dong said after a slight ponder.

Hearing this, Zhang Weihan was overjoyed, and said secretly in his heart: "I didn't expect this guy to be a layman, and he didn't know any treasures!"

"Hehe, that's thank you, little brother!"

"Boss Zhang is polite!"

At this time, for fear that Liu Dong would return, Zhang Weihan couldn't wait to take out his wallet from his pocket, counted two thousand yuan and handed it to Liu Dong.

"Boss Zhang, you seem to be mistaken, when did I say that I sold you this blue and white jade pot spring vase from the Guangxu official kiln for two thousand yuan, I'm not so stupid!" Although Liu Dong showed surprise on his face, a smile in his eyes revealed the true thoughts in his heart.

And Zhang Weihan, who was played by Liu Dong a little, was furious in his heart, but also understood that this time he wanted to buy this Guangxu official kiln from Liu Dong at a low price.

"Then how much money are you going to sell?" Zhang Weihan asked with a reluctant smile on his face.

"200,000 yuan! I won't sell it for a penny less!" Liu Dong shook his right index finger and said with a determined face. (To be continued......)
