Chapter 190: Eight Treasures Benpa
Tang Yi picked up the bottle and looked at the bottom of the bottle. The bottom of the bottle falls blue and white six-character seal book: Qianlong year of the Qing Dynasty.
"Are you sure you can eat this thing?" Tang Yi had already felt that something was wrong in his heart, Hufeng's specialty was porcelain, how could Hufeng not be able to eat such a pair of official kiln porcelain? And he didn't have any reason to look for Tang Yi to see, wouldn't it be more convenient for Hu Wencheng to come and see it?
"I don't see any problems with the Qianlong official kiln. However, I have never seen this type of real thing, but I have heard that it is called a cardia bottle, and I have generally checked some information. They are all people in the circle, and I won't hide it from you, this is something that someone specifically asked to find, and I heard that I have a deep affection for Tibet, so I specially wanted to buy such a pair of bottles, and I have been looking for a long time. I'm looking for you to confirm it again. Hufeng roughly explained.
When Hu Feng said this, Tang Yi basically believed it.
What does an art agency do? On the one hand, serve those high-level customers, looking for good things; On the other hand, it is closely connected with the antique circle and helps people ship goods along the way. To put it bluntly, it is similar to the "fiber pulling" in the industry, but the grade is a little higher, and it often participates in auctions and exhibitions, and since it is a company, it is naturally more pompous than an individual and better at market operation.
This pair of bottles, presumably is Hufeng "credit", that is to say, it is very likely that the buyer is satisfied with the payment, he received the money and then gave the seller money, the difference in the middle, naturally fell into the pocket of Hufeng, basically empty gloves white wolf.
Moreover, since he put the bottle at home and let Tang Yi see it, it is not the company's account, and naturally he doesn't have to think about paying taxes or anything.
To put it bluntly, this is a private job, so Hu Feng may not be willing to ask Hu Wencheng to help him.
Although the level of porcelain appreciation of Hufeng is not low, this shape is indeed rare among the porcelain on the market. He can be sure that it is the Qianlong official kiln, but because he has never seen the real thing, he always has no bottom in his heart, since he happened to meet Tang Yi, so let him come and take a look, and by the way, it is also common sense.
"Qianlong blue and white pastel eight treasures auspicious pattern cardina bottle." Tang Yi accurately said the name of the porcelain vase.
Hufeng was stunned for a moment. Although he had known for a long time what it was, it was rare to call out his full name so accurately, at least his level of exhalation was not low, but he still couldn't shout it completely.
Tang Yi looked at Hu Feng again and smiled, "Such a heavy weapon worth one or two hundred million, if I look at it, I won't be able to draw the first ten percent of your dividends?" ”
Hu Feng didn't expect Tang Yi to say this directly, although he looked at Tang Yi as a joke, but he couldn't help but respond...
"How much do you want, just open a number, I'll give it to you when it's over..."Hufeng is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and after a slight pause, he kicked the ball to Tang Yi. If you really want to give money for this kind of thing, it is all about looking at giving and meaning. Come to help, why are you embarrassed to ask for money?
"Just kidding..."Tang Yi smoothed his hair, continued to look at the bottle and said, "Eight Treasures Benba." The Eight Treasures are easy to say, the Eight Treasures of Buddhism. Do you know what this Benba does? ”
"The Benba language is out of Tibet, commonly known as Tibetan grass pots." Hu Feng said, "I've checked all the basic information, why is this thing valuable?" ”
"Do you know what the Tibetan grass pot is for?" Tang Yi asked again.
"I really haven't paid attention to this, does it have anything to do with value?" Hufeng asked directly.
Tang Yi looked at Hufeng, and said in his heart that this kid was really out of his eyes, "The Tibetan grass pot was originally used for bathing, a pot for flushing, and later evolved into a sacrificial item. In Tibet, even the sacrificial vessel Tibetan grass pot is generally made of gold, silver, copper and iron, and there is no porcelain at all. In other regions, this Tibetan grass pot will not be used as a sacrificial vessel. ”
"Oh, I see." Hufeng's brain reacted quickly, "The perfect combination of Tibetan modeling and court art... And it's a sacrificial vessel... The things used in the palace, the rare shapes, or the sacrificial vessels, so many key factors are added together, so the market price must not be low..."
Tang Yi left his hand, stood up straight and asked, "The price you received is not low, right?" ”
"I'll tell you the truth, this is what I did at an auction in the UK, the kind of small auction for a small company. No, it just arrived yesterday morning, and I wasn't in a hurry to go to dinner yesterday? I didn't look closely. Hu Feng said, took out an auction album out of nowhere, and handed it to Tang Yi.
The catalogue is all in English, and the description of the lots is very simple. However, the pictures in the album are clear and comprehensive.
Sure enough, it was a small company and a small auction, and there were only forty or fifty lots, and they were very miscellaneous, a bit like catching up with a big set, some medieval aristocratic armor, oil paintings by painters whose names could not be read, prophetic notes of the Mayans, masks of unknown materials, large fish fossils, pocket watches inlaid with rubies······
This pair of eight-treasure vases is the twenty-sixth lot, with a starting price of £2,000.
With such a low starting price, Tang Yi was dumbfounded. It's a pair of bottles, not a bottle... The value of things that come together will skyrocket, not to mention this pair of official kiln porcelain from the palace.
If this pair of bottles is auctioned at a large auction, the price of 10 million should not be difficult to auction, and it is not impossible to auction it or meet a wealthy and favorite buyer. Even if this is converted into pounds, it is a million two million.
However, the starting price set for this pair of cardinal bottles in this bullshit little auction was only 2,000 pounds, and even the mask that didn't make sense of bullshit was 3,000 pounds.
"You're really good at picking it up, it's still ······ at the auction." Tang Yi put the album back on the table.
"Don't look at the auction price, but you can spend a lot. Not to mention, there is really a knowledgeable person, there is an old lady, who looks like Southeast Asia, has been competing with me, and finally I was photographed for 270,000 pounds..."Hufeng said, as if he remembered the old lady again, and there was a trace of annoyance in his eyes.
Tang Yi thought to himself, this has made so much money, what else do you want? The conversation changed, and he didn't say anything about picking up or not picking up the leaks, "Your path is wild enough, if someone wants to find it, you can find it." ”
"This is what I was asked to find when I was in Yanjing, and it took a long time. Later, when I came to Shanzhou, I heard that there was such an auction, and there was such a pair of porcelain vases, so I went over. It's all a coincidence, buddy is really short of money. "Hufeng looks like he eats bran every day.
Tang Yi thought to himself, why are you crying poor, I won't borrow money from you... Then he said: "I'm done reading things, it's still early, I'll see the dinner another day..."
"No, there's one more thing for you to see..."
