There are traces of incense ash in the copper furnace, which should have been used for incense burners in that family's house before. This incense burner is more than 20 centimeters high, which is much larger than ordinary incense burners.

"Mr. Tang, you think this is an old thing, right?" Lao Pang asked Tang Yi first.

"Things from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties." Tang Yi nodded, "There are still back lines at the mouth of the circle, and the three legs are also supported by the bottom, which is really complicated." ”

Wen Jia stared at it and asked, "It's not something in the palace, right?" ”

"It's not just not from the palace, it's not from China at all." Tang Yi responded, "At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, there was no such thing in China. Or should I say, this is something from the middle of the 17th century. ”

"Huh?" Lao Pang shouted, "This customer, I started to memorize the words last month, I took a closer look, there is a problem with this thing, and he also put this thing at home last month and began to worship incense in front of the ancestral tablet." ”

Tang Yi smiled, "Does this customer's ancestor hate devils very much?" ”

"Could it be that this incense burner was made by the Japanese Kingdom?" Wen Jia asked.

"That's right, even the words of the Wa Kingdom were borrowed from our Huaxia, and many of these antiques and artifacts were also borrowed. This incense burner borrowed the shape of the Xuande furnace, but it made so many messy ornaments, which is a bit of a snake. This thing is rare, there are many things that flow from China to the Wa Kingdom, and there are few antiques from the Wa Kingdom. Tang Yi explained.

Lao Pang nodded again and again, "That's right, this customer's grandfather participated in the Anti-Japanese War." I didn't think of that at the time, so I just said I would take it back and study it. So that's it! ”

Wen Jia stroked his palms and laughed, "Look at it, Lao Pang, what are you talking about, you didn't say it at first!" Isn't this solved? ”

Lao Pang said, "This customer is also known as a player of antiques, and he didn't see that it was made by the Japanese country at all." Gotcha, you eat, I'll go out and call him. ”

Lao Pang came back after ten minutes, "Okay, this customer has to meet Mr. Tang, saying that it is easy to meet an expert who can communicate!" ”

"Then let's meet, the customer is God!" Tang Yi said, "There is nothing important today. ”

"Okay, then I'll ask him to wait in the store later, just in time to take his incense burner. Although he can't put it at home, he has to deal with it himself. Lao Pang nodded.

After eating, they went back to the magic shop, and Hou Ruhai also went. After a while, that customer came. It's a man in his forties, with deep crow's feet, a happy face, and a smile at first sight. Dressed up in style. This is also the fact that those who can spend a lot of money to see feng shui are not poor.

"Mr. Tang, look up for a long time!" The customer handed over a business card, which turned out to be the owner of a film and television company, named Sima Liu.

This name is a bit weird, it would be more appropriate to drive another Ma Liu, but people have drivers, and they drive Bentleys. "Mr. Sima's name is quite individual." Tang Yi took the business card and returned one.

"Whew, don't mention it! Originally, I was supposed to be called Sima Lu, but when I reported my household registration, the person who registered was a mallet! Ask my mother: Which Lu? My mother said, "It's a capital six." In the end, it was done, and when I looked at it, it was actually written as this six! It is said that my mother was in a hurry at the time, and the registered person still had a heart: Isn't this capitalized? Arabic numerals are lowercase! Later, I wanted to change it again, but my dad said that six is not bad, six six is smooth, and in the end it didn't change. ”

Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere was much lighter for a while.

Tang Yi didn't expect this Sima Liu to be so interesting. What he reveals may not be his true temperament, but it makes people feel comfortable. That's why some people are likeable, at least on the surface, easy-going.

When they arrived at the reception room on the second floor, tea was put on the table, and a few people sat down. Sima Liu pointed to the incense burner on the table and asked, "Mr. Tang, can this country make such a good thing in our late Ming and early Qing dynasties?" ”

Tang Yi gave him a few key points of judgment, and Sima Liu slapped his face, "This thing, I can only see the early Qing Dynasty from the pulp." Mr. Tang's explanation suddenly opened up, suddenly opened up! ”

Sima Liuyi saw that he had a foundation, although he was not a master, but he was not a layman, Tang Yi then asked, "Mr. Sima, how did you get this incense burner?" ”

"The morning market stall came up from the morning market! Don't look at me doing film and television, I'm not interested in any star**, I like old things! I usually like to visit the stalls! Especially early in the morning on the first day of the new opening of the weekly stall! Sima Liuyi talked about the antique stall, it was really like a pervert seeing a beautiful woman, and his interest rose.

At that time, Sima Liu was running into a stall owner who had just dragged a large box to the place.

People who have visited the morning market stalls in the antique market know that it used to be called guarding the bag, but now it is called guarding the box.

What's more, the stall area is generally only open on weekends, and when it opens on the first day, it is likely that the stall owner brings the things he has been looking for for a week. The stall owner comes with something in the morning, and when he goes out to take it, it is the most advantageous time to see a good thing, and someone will pick it up when he takes a piece, and when he sees a good one, he may make a deal.

In the early years, the stall owners were carrying snakeskin bags, urea bags or something, and these years they are usually large suitcases. By the time everything was put on the stall, it was basically gone through by the people who guarded the boxes, and most of the things that weren't bought were not good things. Of course, this is not absolute, but it is a common phenomenon.

The people guarding the box were all like hungry ghosts, with one look. But the difference in identity is big, maybe whoever wears an old man's shirt and shoes is a billionaire.

The stall owner took out a piece of porcelain wrapped in newspaper for the first time, which was copied by a person, and when I opened it, I went, the glaze thief was shining, and it was estimated that it would be burned out in a few days. The guy was depressed enough.

The second newspaper was wrapped in this thing, which was snatched by Sima Liu. Although this thing is in Sima Liu's hands, they are all looking at it, this bag of pulp is wide open, and there is no problem with things that are hundreds of years old, but the shape is a little complicated. In particular, there is a copper plate bottom under the bottom of the three legs.

However, if it is sure that it is an old thing, then at least most of the heart is relieved. Sima Liu just wanted to buy an incense burner, not necessarily copper, but it had to be an old one. It's called what you want to do. But he's a little bit overjoyed.

The stall owner was very oily, and when he saw it, he called a ruthless price. In the end, Sima Liu spent 20,000 yuan to win it.

The current market price of this thing is actually the highest. I took it from the stall and it was high. The stall owner was playing with his heart, the first one deliberately took out a fake porcelain, and the second one was a real thing, which was particularly eye-catching. The reason why he is like this is because he himself can't eat this copper incense burner, so he has to sell it higher to be safe.

In the antique shop, they all like to play with their hearts, not to mention the truth and falsehood, the price is also one thing. Because antiques are not mass-produced, they are basically unique, so the prices are not comparable, and you can say three, four, five or six as high or low. Whoever can play will be able to make more money and lose less.

Sima Liu didn't care about buying it a little higher. The problem is that he has found a lot of people to watch, but there are only a limited number of high-ranking people in his circle, and they don't get to the point.
