While speaking, Wang Guan put the lid back on the mouth of the bottle, and then with a movement of his fingers, he heard the sound of the lid and the mouth of the bottle rubbing, which also proved that his judgment was correct. Under normal circumstances, the original cap and bottle mouth should be very tight, especially this fine porcelain, the workmanship is rigorous and precise, and there will never be a loose cap.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Lao didn't need to make excuses at all, and directly shook his head and said: "Xiao Li, this thing is not good, we won't look at it, you can put it away." ”

At the same time, Tian Lao also frowned and said: "Xiao Li, as the saying goes, there are only three things, you have brought three things up, none of which satisfies us, if this is the case, we will leave." ”

"That's right, instead of wasting time here, it's better to check out other stores, and you might be able to find the right treasure." Qin Lao also spoke, and was unanimously approved by everyone.

"Seniors, you ...... a little bit"

At this time, the big shopkeeper was a little anxious. I want them to leave, but I don't want them to leave. This may seem paradoxical, but it actually has a lot of meaning.

Zhang Lao and the others came in a big way, and the big shopkeeper didn't know their intentions, he must have felt that the pressure was doubled, and he naturally hoped that they would leave as soon as possible. But now that they felt that they were really coming to see things, the big shopkeeper felt at ease, and naturally changed his mind. If you open your door to do business, where is there a reason to push customers out.

Besides, the big shopkeeper also knows that these old people are not bad at money, and it is not uncommon to spend millions on a thing. Of course, the premise is that things can get into their eyes.

Therefore, at this time, Zhang Lao and the others were leaving, but the big shopkeeper wanted to stop them desperately. What's more, listen to what a few old people have to say: Fengbaotang doesn't have good things, so I have to go to other stores to have a look...... Just rush this sentence. The big treasurer couldn't let them leave like this under any circumstances. It's not a business thing anymore. It's about the reputation of Fengbaotang.

These old people have a great influence, as long as they crook their mouths casually, I am afraid it will be a big blow to Feng Baotang. Maybe Feng Baotang's competitors will take the opportunity to spread some rumors, and the matter will be even more serious. For the big shopkeeper who has the heart to make Fengbaotang bigger and stronger, he definitely doesn't want to see such a situation.

"Ladies and gentlemen. Wait for me for two minutes. ”

The big shopkeeper was in a hurry, and went down with the Longquan kiln celadon bottle, and after a while, he came back in a hurry and put a very delicate brocade box on the table.

At this time, the big shopkeeper's expression was very confident, and he stretched out his hand and signaled: "Little brother, I won't say much, you can see for yourself." This thing, it's not like I'm bragging. It is definitely a rare rarity. ”

The big shopkeeper has said this several times, and Wang Guan naturally won't take it seriously. However, judging from the cautious attitude of the big shopkeeper, this should not be an ordinary thing.

Wang Guan was thoughtful. Carefully open the brocade box. When I looked down, my eyes lit up. I saw a white porcelain Guanyin statue placed flat in the brocade box. Guanyin's shape is vivid, the body is plump, the face is handsome, extraordinary, the demeanor is kind and quiet, the clothes are deep and soft, the lines are chic and smooth, as if it is lifelike.

"Dehua white porcelain Guanyin statue."

The king glanced at it and couldn't help but marvel.

"Little brother has good eyesight."

The big shopkeeper praised it heartily, and then continued to signal: "Take it out and put it right, you can see it more clearly." ”

When Wang Guan heard the sound, he immediately carefully took out the statue of Guanyin in the brocade box, placed it on the table smoothly, and then gently took two steps back. In an instant, a touch of candlelight was reflected on the body of the statue of Guanyin, making Guanyin appear more and more moist and thick, crystal like snow, beautiful as fat jade, which makes people never get tired of looking at it.

"Xiao Li, I'm finally willing to take out the good things."

At the same time, several old people next to him looked at it and nodded with satisfaction. Of course, it was just a preliminary impression, so as not to shock them much, so they continued to sit and watch steadily.

However, Gao Dequan, who was sitting on the other side, had sharp eyes, and vaguely saw that the back of the Guanyin statue seemed to be engraved with a mark, and he hurriedly said: "Wang Guan, there is a paragraph on the back, see whose thing it is." ”

"He Chaozong Yin!"

Under Gao Dequan's reminder, Wang Guan took two steps around and saw the imprint behind the statue of Guanyin, and read it out casually.

"He Chaozong? The statue of Guanyin of He Chaozong? ”

For a moment, three or four old men seemed to be unable to sit still, and wanted to go up to see what was going on. However, Zhang Lao pulled them back, shook his head and said: "Everyone is calm, He Chaozong has a lot of things, let Wang watch it first to see if it is genuine." ”

"Elder Zhang, this is definitely the genuine Guanyin statue of He Chaozong." The big shopkeeper called Qu Dao, but unfortunately his words were not very credible, and no one paid attention to them at all, which made the big shopkeeper feel very hurt.

At the same time, Su Yu pulled down Gao Dequan's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Gao, who is He Chaozong?" When I heard that this Kannon was like his, everyone seemed to be very excited. ”

"It's a little exciting." Gao Dequan said with a smile: "You don't know, He Chaozong is the master of Dehua white porcelain craft in the Jiajing and Wanli periods of the Ming Dynasty, and the works of Guanyin Buddha he shaped have extremely high artistic value, which can be called a rare treasure, and even let people at that time compete to buy it with tens of thousands of gold." ”

"So powerful?" Su Yu was a little skeptical.

"Of course." Gao Dequan nodded affirmatively and said: "You must know that He Chaozong's creative attitude is rigorous and serious, and he adheres to the principle of preferring shortage to excess. He cherished the fruits of his labor very much, and only when he was satisfied with his own works did he stamp his back. As a result, there are very few works bearing his name, and each one is in a different form, which is a unique treasure in the world. ”

"Then how did Grandpa Zhang say that He Chaozong has a lot of works?" Su Yu was a little confused.

Gao Dequan said with a smile: "Things are good, and there are naturally many imitations and fakes." ”

"Understood." Su Yu nodded lightly, held his delicate chin and looked at the Guanyin statue on the table, and whispered: "The thing is so beautiful, it shouldn't be a fake." ”

"It's hard to say, after all, without an investigation, there is no right to speak." Gao Dequan smiled and said: "Let Wang Guan appreciate it first, and then listen to what he thinks." ”

At this time, Su Yu didn't say anything about Wang Guan's ability, although she didn't say it, she vaguely admitted in her heart that Wang Guan's ability was even more powerful than she imagined.

At the same time, Wang Guan also rolled up his sleeves, carefully held the white porcelain Guanyin statue, and looked at it carefully and carefully.

At first glance, the statue of Guanyin is already very perfect, and now that he looks closely, Wang Guan feels that this thing is indeed rare. In order to pursue the simulation effect, the whole Guanyin statue has arc lines, hair threads, and fine sea lines, reflecting the superb craftsmanship of Master He Chaozong.

Of course, the shape of the Guanyin statue and the carving of the craft are only one of the means to identify the authenticity. Among them, the most important thing is to look at the porcelain and glaze of the Guanyin statue.

After all, according to historical records, in order to make the best works, Master He Chaozong paid great attention to the selection of raw materials. The porcelain clay and glaze he uses are carefully selected for their quality. Therefore, the porcelain statue he fired has a dense porcelain fetus, excellent light transmittance, strong texture, bright color, and has the reputation of condensing like jade.

At this time, Wang Guan Yingguang looked at the porcelain white Guanyin statue, and sure enough, he immediately saw a touch of crystal light, like milky white ivory, and like a luster like clotted frozen jade. This kind of white, slightly pale yellow, has a very rich texture, so it was very popular with Europeans at that time, and even called it Chinese white.

This kind of white can only be fired in the Ming Dynasty. After the Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China, due to the change in the proportion and formula of raw materials, the glaze color shimmered blue in white, although it was still smooth and bright, but it was completely different from the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, according to these characteristics, Wang Guan is already seventy percent sure that this is genuine.

However, out of prudence, Wang Guan continued to look at the back of the Guanyin statue. I saw the four-character version of He Chaozong's seal behind the statue of Guanyin, faintly, not very clear. This is very much in line with the characteristics of He Chaozong's works.

To know whether it is a master's work or not, it cannot be determined only by seals. Moreover, the real master seal is often blurred, and if you encounter a very clear seal, then you need to be even more careful. Therefore, seeing the vague and faint imprint on this Guanyin statue, Wang Guan breathed a sigh of relief and added a little more certainty.

After that, it's time to see the carcass of the Kannon statue.

Don't look at the overall condition of this Guanyin statue, it looks perfect, but in fact, there are a few cracks at the bottom of the back of Guanyin, which is the so-called kiln crack. This is due to the fact that the ancient firing technology is not as good as the modern one, so it is normal for some kiln cracks to occur. When Wang saw it, he did not make a fuss, but observed the quality of the carcass through the crack in the kiln.

The carcass of Dehua white porcelain is very dense, Wang Guan took out a high-powered magnifying glass to look at it, and found that there are tiny particles on the carcass, which is also in line with the technological characteristics of the times.

At that moment, Wang Guan nodded with satisfaction, feeling that he was eighty or ninety percent sure that the thing was genuine, and was about to raise his head to express his opinion, when his heart suddenly moved, and he quietly opened his special ability to watch intently.

In an instant, a bright yellow treasure light came into view, which made Wang Guan feel more comfortable, and felt that he was not wrong. But when he looked at it again, he was shocked to find that this bright yellow and brilliant treasure light was in an irregular state.

At this moment, Wang Guan was stunned, and only after half a ring did he come back to his senses in a trance, hurriedly observed and looked at it, and studied the entire Guanyin statue thoroughly, only then did he understand what was going on.

"Wang Guan, are you optimistic, how is the thing?"

At the same time, Wang Guan's unusual expression also attracted Zhang Lao's attention, but after waiting for two or three minutes, he saw that Wang Guan was still concentrating on studying the Guanyin statue, and he couldn't help but ask.

Hearing Zhang Lao's voice, Wang Guan gradually came to his senses, and after receiving the special ability, he looked at everyone and looked a little hesitant.

"Wang Guan, what do you think, tell me quickly." Zhang Lao urged.

"Yes, don't worry, it's okay to be bold, even if you're wrong." The old people next to him also encouraged themselves.

"I'm not sure about this."

Wang Guan was a little embarrassed, but he still said truthfully: "It seems to have a demonic ......."
