Obviously, Mr. Anderson also understands the value of the Doucai Chicken Cup, and feels that the cup is worth more than the Malay Klux. In this regard, Yu Feibai was a little proud, and at the same time muttered: "Sure enough, the better the thing, the more difficult it is to pick and miss." ”

However, seeing Mr. Anderson so cautious, Yu Feibai felt that there was a high probability that the Doucai Chicken Bowl Cup was genuine, and immediately hurriedly urged him to open the glass cover and take out the things.

Mr. Anderson smiled lightly, then opened the glass cover, carefully took out the doucai chicken bowl cup, and put it on the table next to him, before taking a half step back and signaling the two to watch slowly.

At this time, the two of them were not in a hurry, and after adjusting their mentality, they looked carefully.

The two have to be cautious, you must know that since the Ming Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, under the respect of the emperor and the literati, the Imperial Kiln Factory has fired a lot of chicken bowl cups, but very few can be handed down, and there are many imitations.

Not only the modern imitation of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, but also the imitation of the chicken bowl cup during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. It can be seen that the chicken bowl cup looks like a thorny rose, which is intimidating for collectors. At the same time, it also shows that in the era of the flood of fakes, the more precious things are, the more cautious they must be.

"I'll see first."

At the same time, Yu Feibai reached out and picked up the cup, concentrating on his research.

Next to him, Wang Guan also looked over, and saw that the cup was small and exquisite, the fetal quality was white and delicate, thin and light, and the white glaze was soft and luster, and the surface and the inside were the same. On the outer wall of the cup, there is a picture of a bucket of color.

In fact, the so-called fighting color, the key is a fighting word, fighting for the odd and beautiful. The original meaning also refers to the blue and white and color materials competing for glory. The process is also very simple to understand, that is, first use blue and white to outline the outline line, and then fill in the color in this outline line.

Doucai chicken bowl cup is like this, the pattern is with blue and white, bright red, leaf green, water green, goose yellow, turmeric, black and other color colors, outlining a picture of a big chicken with a small chicken, lively and vivid, full of fun.

The pattern of the painting is not simple. It was designed by the imperial painter and submitted to the royal approval for approval, and then hand-painted by the master master craftsman on the small cup with a half-gong pen, and finally sent to the kiln for firing.

Other than that. It should be noted that although the pattern of the chicken bowl cup has a design pattern, according to the investigation and research, it is found that the shape and pattern of these cups are different. From styling to blue and white hair color, ornamental outline, length of cocktail, tail change. There are many kinds of variety, and there are basically no duplicates.

That is to say, if one day you find two Ming Chenghua Doucai chicken bowl cups with the same pattern, then it is completely certain that the two cups are either one real and one imitation, or both are imitation. Otherwise, it's simply a fake.

Now I just don't know, the bucket chicken cup in front of me is really imitation. In fact, it doesn't matter if it's imitated, if it's an imitation during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, it is also a treasure that can be faked. It also has a high collection value.

However, watching from the side, there is always a layer apart, and Wang Guan is not easy to judge the authenticity. After a long time, Yu Feibai finished reading. Reluctantly, he put down the cup.

"How?" Wang Guan asked.

"Perfect." Yu Feibai exclaimed: "It is worthy of being one of the ancient treasures of famous porcelain. ”

"Thank you!"

Maybe he thinks it's his own thing, and praising the Doucai Chicken Cup is praising himself, so Mr. Anderson is also very happy, and said with a smile: "I also think the thing is very good, and I like it very much when I see it." Immediately bought it. ”

"At which auction did you buy it?" Yu Feibai felt a little strange: "Such a thing should not be cheap, why is there no rumor in China......

"Nine million dollars." Mr. Anderson laughs, "I didn't bid at an auction, I bought it from a collector in Seattle." ”

"Seattle!"

Wang Guan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and his heart suddenly felt a little sensitive. Of course, it was just a loss of mind, Wang Guan immediately focused and picked up the chicken bowl cup to observe.

I saw that the cup was delicate and exquisite, the tire was thin and glazed, the edge of the mouth was slightly outward, and the abdomen gradually received the bottom. From a distance, it looks like a smaller cylinder, hence the name.

In fact, no matter ancient or modern, there seems to be a unified standard for ornamental porcelain. In a nutshell, it is as white as jade, as bright as a mirror, and as thin as paper. Obviously, these characteristics of the doucai chicken bowl cup have been done, the cup tire is as thin as paper, and looking at the light, the cup seems to be transparent, more transparent, smooth and bright.

Look at the bottom foot again, in the middle is the blue and white column, which has a regular script Ming Chenghua year double-line six-character paragraph. The font looks a little crooked, but it fits the characteristics of the era. In fact, the crooked and improper handwriting is the most difficult to imitate, and if the words are very upright, it is the easiest for people to imitate.

In any case, the carcass and glaze, including the words on the bottom foot, as well as the characteristic crystal-clear sand-staining phenomenon, all indicate the authenticity of the Doucai Chicken Cup.

However, I don't know why, Wang Guan always has a feeling of unsteadyness. Maybe Mr. Anderson mentioned Seattle, or maybe he didn't think something was right.

Anyway, in order to make himself feel at ease, while Mr. Anderson and Yu Feibai were chatting, Wang Guan quietly turned on his special ability and stared at it.

In an instant, a wave of light floated, but after passing through the Doucai Chicken Cup, there was no reaction. In Wang Guan's eyes, the whole cup was like a pool of stagnant water, without the slightest treasure.

Seeing this situation, Wang Guan's heart sank, and he also observed more attentively. After a long time, he finally found something special in the pattern of the lake stone peony on the outer wall of the cup.

In fact, the reason why the pattern in the cup is divided into two groups is that at the two ends of the outer wall, the bluegrass and lake stone and the peony lake stone are depicted, respectively, separating the two groups of chicken figures.

Now Wang Guan is in the pattern of the peony lake stone, and found the veins of a peony leaf, which seems to be intentional or unintentional, but it is very clear that it constitutes a unique mark.

"Mr. Zhu Da ......"

Wang Guan sighed secretly in his heart, then collected his special ability, and slowly put down the chicken bowl cup. However, on the surface, he didn't show any clues, but said with a smile: "Very good thing." ”

It's hard to distinguish between the real and the fake, and it's certainly very good.

Anderson naturally didn't know, and thanked Wang Guan for his praise with a smile.

At the right time, Wang Guan took the opportunity to say: "Mr. Anderson, don't you mind if I take a few photos as a souvenir?" ”

"Absolutely." Mr. Anderson readily agreed.

However, Yu Feibai did not give up, and asked vigorously: "Mr. Anderson, do you have any intention of shooting this cup?" ”

According to Yu Feibai's idea, even if he can't afford this thing, he can contact a buyer who can afford it. Anyway, it is also the treasure of the ancestors, and it is better to fall into the hands of one's own people than on foreign devils.

"Yu, you don't have to ask, this is my treasure, I won't sell it."

Mr. Anderson refused, and then smiled again: "Yu, I have not only the Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup here, but also other porcelain, you should like it." For example, this is the Qing Dynasty imitation of the Yuan blue and white ......"

"Wait, what did you say?"

Yu Feibai's eyes widened and said, "Qing Dynasty imitation Yuan Qinghua, is there such a thing?" ”

"Who said no, see for yourself."

Mr. Anderson smiled, took a vase from the shelf next to him, and handed it over.

Yu Feibai immediately took the vase, looked at the bottom of the bottle, and indeed saw the words Qianlong imitation Yuan blue and white in the Qing Dynasty. That's right, it's still simplified. For a moment, he didn't know whether to cry or laugh, and then said with a strange expression: "Mr. Anderson, how much did you spend on this thing, and do you still plan to ask for it?" ”

If Mr. Anderson said yes, Yu Feibai planned to pull a boat over and make a lot of money.

"No, I really can't put it down." Mr. Anderson sighed: "It was given by a friend, and it is not good to dampen his enthusiasm, and it cannot be placed elsewhere, so it has to be placed here." Of course, if you like it, I can give it to you. ”

"Forget it, there is no blessing." At this time, Yu Feibai rolled his eyes, and knew that Mr. Anderson was joking. It is estimated that he also understands the authenticity of this thing, so he casually puts it on the shelf. Unlike the chicken cup, which is carefully stored in a tempered glass case.

"Click, click, click......"

At the same time, Wang Guan took more than a dozen photos of the doucai chicken bowl cup with his mobile phone, and then he was satisfied with his hand, and then turned around and smiled: "Mr. Anderson, forgive me for taking the liberty of asking, who did you buy this thing from?" I think he has other treasures in his hands, and if I have the chance, I want to visit and get one or two back. ”

Mr. Anderson didn't doubt it, and directly gave the person's contact information to Wang Guan, and said with a smile: "Wang, mention my name after you pass, maybe you can get a discount......

"Then thank you, Mr. Anderson." Wang Guan said sincerely, and carefully put away the contact information.

"You're welcome."

Mr. Anderson waved his hand and continued to recommend, "Wang, I can't give you the chicken cup, but I have other good things here." Persian carpets are handmade and have a history of more than 200 years...... The Buddha statues in Thailand, all made of gold, are very exquisite...... Emerald ...... in Myanmar Korean Goryeo celadon ...... Oh, and the Japanese samurai sword! ”

"Hmm!"

Wang Guan stopped, looked in the direction pointed by Mr. Anderson, and saw a long knife resting in the glass case there. The scabbard bends slightly, tilting out a slightly circular arc.

Seeing this, Mr. Anderson thought that Wang Guan was interested in the katana, so he hurriedly introduced it carefully: "This sword is the work of a well-known Japanese swordsmith in the seventeenth century, and its owner is a lord with great power......

At this time, Wang Guan didn't seem to hear Mr. Anderson's words, and walked over slowly, but when he came to the side of the katana, he walked around and walked in front of a long booth.

The booth was very simple, just a long table with a soft cloth. On top of the soft cloth, more than a dozen weapons of different lengths were neatly placed -- ancient Chinese weapons. (To be continued)
