0116 Let you drink the water for washing your feet
Puzzled, Tang Yan picked up the Xuande monk's hat pot that he thought was the most unlikely to be genuine, this porcelain was so perfect that it was completely hard to believe that it would be a real thing.
Without letting go of any details, Tang Yan used the greatest patience to study this Xuande monk hat pot, and found obvious splicing marks on the cap and waist of the pot. This does not refer to post-processed splicing, but to normal splicing during the manufacturing process. The glaze at the stitching is thicker, which is to hide the seam underneath. Although it may seem to be a flaw, it is already considered part of the porcelain itself, and it is no longer a flaw.
Under extremely careful observation, Tang Yan finally found that it was on the sole of the foot again, and it was also a double blue circle, but this double blue circle was a corner, and at the inner corner, there was just a circle of mud.
Tang Yan nodded, and said in his heart: It seems that it is another spliced thing, and this circle of mud was simply made to cover up the splicing traces at the bottom of the bottle. Honestly, these sixteen pieces, especially these four things, cannot be said to be pure fakes, they are all fragments or parts of antiques pieced together, but they are indeed fakes, because they do not match what they describe, and they are obviously done for the sake of increasing value.
Not to mention anything else, just the peacock's splicing skills can be called the pinnacle level, if it weren't for Tang Yan's bug-like existence with generational skills, even the most senior experts would be eyed at this.
Tang Yan is not worried that the peacock will repay the debt from this aspect, to put it mildly, as long as he tells the people present about the splicing of these porcelain, it is not too much for the peacock to die ten thousand times. The reserve price of these sixteen pieces of porcelain has reached nearly 30 million just according to the information provided by the peacock, and the final transaction price is estimated to be more than 40 million. But even if his things were already ingenious and of high value, they would not exceed fifteen million at most.
Therefore, as long as Tang Yan points out the peacock, he must admit that he lost the game.
But the problem is that although the peacock is here to make money, Tang Yan can't believe that this guy is so stingy that he doesn't take out a real thing, which is really a bit contrary to common sense. The most important thing is that since the peacock made this bet with Tang Yan, if there is no real product, it is a little unreasonable, and it is impossible for him not to worry that Tang Yan will finally learn the truth that there is no real product and become angry, then he will lose more than he gains, and it will definitely be a loss to steal chickens and rice.
It has been confirmed that these four pieces of porcelain are also fakes, and Tang Yan has already prepared them. But he glanced at the peacock very suspiciously, but found that the peacock, who had been constantly flattering Ji Fanxi just now, was looking at him calmly at the moment. Of course, the calmness of his eyes can be disguised, and the peacock actually looked at Tang Yan at this moment, which actually showed that he was also starting to be a little nervous.
Why should he be nervous?
The peacock has always shown great confidence in his own technology, and seems to believe that Tang Yan will never be able to distinguish the authenticity of these porcelains, and when Tang Yan came to power, he also paid attention to the peacock, and the peacock was still flattering Ji Fanxi. So why is he suddenly nervous now?
Tang Yan stopped, looked back at the four pieces of porcelain, and thought: Is the peacock's nervousness because I picked up the monk's hat pot repeatedly?
Don't look at Tang Yan's extremely detailed inspection of the four pieces of porcelain on stage, in fact, he has been observing the peacock's reaction with a heart. He saw the whole process very clearly, and when he looked at it one by one, the peacock was not nervous, and basically just glanced at it and did what he should do. Even when Tang Yan compared the longevity peach fruit bowl with the plum bottle, the peacock's eyes did not stay on Tang Yan.
Only when Tang Yan picked up the monk hat pot that he put down first, the peacock's gaze actually stayed on him.
This seems to be enough to show that the peacock is either not worried about Tang Yan seeing the flaws at all, or he thinks that Tang Yan must be able to see the flaws, and thus thinks that all the porcelain is a fake.
"There's still something wrong!" Tang Yan turned around, "Could it be that this monk's hat pot is genuine?" ”
Seeing Tang Yan pick up the monk's hat pot again, even the auctioneer on the stage showed a little impatience, but Tang Yan's afterglow noticed that although the peacock turned his head vigorously and seemed to be talking to Ji Fanxi again, the corners of his eyes flashed a little.
Of course, this may also be a kind of psychological warfare, Peacock seems to like to play this hand very much, and he has used psychological warfare to test Tang Yan several times before.
Holding the monk's hat pot in his hand, but Tang Yan's gaze did not fall on it, he was just thinking, those three are definitely problematic, and there is no problem with this one? This has also become the only suspense of whether these sixteen pieces of porcelain are genuine or not.
A circle of mud ...... Why is there a circle of mud?
Tang Yan seemed to suddenly understand the peacock's methods, and sometimes, there is only a layer of paper between the truth and the illusion. If you find that key point, you will find a way to detect the truth.
Tang Yan finally put down the monk's hat pot and walked off the stage with a little disappointment on his face. When he walked to the front of the first row of seats, he deliberately stopped to look at the peacock. In his eyes, there was hesitation, and even a little anger, which made the peacock's heart steady.
After sitting down, Xie Bin asked anxiously, "How is it?" Do you see it? ”
Tang Yan still nodded as if he was a little hesitant, but he didn't answer Xie Bin's words.
All this undoubtedly fell into the eyes of the peacock, and he was determined that he had won the game again in today's game. It's a pity that Tang Yan is also snorting coldly in his heart at the moment: "Little sample, play this kind of Ligeren with me, and the master will let you drink Lao Tzu's footwashing water." ”
Seeing that Tang Yan had returned to his seat, Geng Xin smiled and waved his hand at the auctioneer: "Let's start the auction." ”
There is no doubt that the four most valuable pieces of porcelain will be placed at the end, and the first twelve pieces of porcelain have experienced a slightly more fierce battle than those ordinary lots before, but the dust still settles quickly, and the total time is only an hour, which is slightly more than the time for Tang Yan and others to look at the four pieces of porcelain on the stage.
The highest auction was 2.2 million yuan, and the lowest was 1.5 million yuan, and the auction dust of 12 pieces of porcelain was settled.
The four most eye-catching pieces of porcelain were finally put into the glass case one by one, and unlike the previous lots, this time the four pieces were put together in one piece, probably for a more shocking feeling.
The first piece to be announced for auction was the Yongle Shou peach blossom fruit bowl, which was also the object that Xie Bin himself was most interested in.
But now that the price tag is in Tang Yan's hands, Xie Bin can only watch Tang Yan not move at all, no matter how golden light comes out of his eyes, and he doesn't say a word about this porcelain at all.
"Isn't this real?" Xie Bin saw that the longevity peach fruit bowl had been shouted to the price of 8.3 million, and it was estimated that it would not exceed 9 million before it should be sold, he was a little anxious, and if he didn't shout at this time, he was afraid that it would be too late.
Tang Yan turned his face to look at him, and whispered in his ear, "This is a folk kiln thing." ”
"Impossible!" Xie Bin didn't believe it at all.
Tang Yan glanced at him and ignored him.
In the end, the auctioneer's mallet fell, and the person who had also gone up with Tang Yan and Geng Xin to get his hands on it got this longevity peach blossom fruit bowl at a price of 8.7 million.
Tang Yan shook his head: "Nima, something less than 300,000 yuan, sell him more than 8 million, Ya is still smiling as if he has found a treasure, and he will cry when he goes back." ”
Immediately afterwards, there was another piece of porcelain from the Yongle period, that is, the Yongle Bafang candlestick that Gengxin wanted to get the most.
As soon as Geng Xin made a move, relatively speaking, there were fewer people bidding with him, mainly the person who took the big bowl of longevity peach blossom fruit shouted a few times to Geng Xin, and finally when Geng Xin directly shouted the price of nine million, the person also chose to let go and smiled apologetically at Geng Xin.
"It's not real?" Xie Bin cried with a sad face.
"If this is true, do you dare to rob him?" Tang Yan directly pestled Xie Bin.
As soon as he said this, Xie Bin's heart was much more balanced: "That's true, but is it true?" ”
"It's true, but the bottom foot and the candlestick are two objects, both of which are damaged, and the splicing is quite bullish!"
"Isn't that a big loss of value?" Xie Bin suddenly felt balanced again.
"It's hard to say, as long as it's not seen, this thing is a thing from the Yongle period as a whole, and it shouldn't be a big problem to make three million after it changes hands."
"Alas, what a pity!"
"It's a pity that it's a yarn, being seen? That's worth a million at most. Tang Yan said disdainfully.
At this time, the only genuine item began to be auctioned, at least the only genuine item that Tang Yan had identified.
"This is the Xuande blue and white monk hat pot, the quality is excellent, the glaze is smooth and delicate, it is a rare boutique. The reserve price is 1.8 million, and the price is 100,000 per bid. ”
After the auctioneer announced, the price of this monk's hat pot quickly climbed to two million and eight hundred thousand, and seeing that Tang Yan still didn't make a move, even Geng Xin turned his head a little strangely and looked at it.
"Three million!" Geng Xin didn't know if it was to stimulate Tang Yan, so it was estimated that he directly added 200,000 yuan and shouted the price of 3 million.
To tell the truth, this price is very close to the final transaction price, and the valuation of this monk's hat pot in everyone's hearts cannot exceed four million at most, otherwise although there is still a profit, the profit is not large.
Xie Bin was already in a hurry, after all, he threw five million down, and it was already a loss to shoot this thing, but fortunately, the loss was not too much, and it was barely within the range of bearing. But Tang Yan was indifferent at all, as if he didn't plan to raise the card at all, Xie Bin couldn't help but push Tang Yan.
Tang Yan glared at him: "You are in a hurry to marry your daughter!" ”
Belch...... Does this have anything to do with auctions?
And on the stage, at this time, there was already a message of "three million twice, is there anyone else who wants to bid?" Voice.
