Chapter 281 [Becoming a Rich Woman?] (1st Update)
In order to promote this folk treasure appreciation conference, Yanjing Antique City has made a lot of money, and also invited Mr. Ma, a famous antique connoisseur and host of CCTV's "Hundred Lectures", to come and sit in the town. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Early in the morning, Qin Fan got on the special car sent by the organizer to pick up and go to the scene of the folk treasure appreciation conference.
At this time, there were already several experts in antique appraisal sitting in the special car. The people invited to this folk treasure appreciation conference are all authoritative experts in the field of antique collection, who are well-known in the antique circle and can often be seen on treasure appreciation programs.
"Hello teachers."
Qin Fan said hello to several experts in the car, and these people thought that Qin Fan was so young and thought that he was a staff member sent by the organizer. Hearing Qin Fan's self-introduction, he realized that this young man turned out to be one of today's treasure appreciation groups, and he couldn't help but show surprise.
"What the hell is Manager Huang doing, how could he invite a hairy boy over. If there is any trouble, won't it smear our faces? ”
A thin black man with a wrinkled face snorted coldly from his nostrils and muttered dissatisfiedly.
Hearing this, Qin Fan's eyes were slightly cold, he didn't seem to have offended this black and thin old man, he didn't know where he got such a big anger, and he targeted himself as soon as he came up.
However, Qin Fan didn't need to worry about some people who relied on the old and sold the old, so he didn't hear it.
"Old man Wu, you don't have to say a few words." To Qin Fan's surprise, Old Man Chen was also one of today's treasure appreciation guests. He and Qin Fan were old friends, and when he saw Qin Fan being ridiculed by Wu Minglei, he couldn't help but stand up and say a few words to him.
"Lao Chen, have you taken gunpowder today? I'm not talking about you. ”
Wu Minglei was also a little surprised to see that Chen Lao actually came out for a hairy boy, and he couldn't help but think in his heart, could it be that this kid still has a little background?
"You don't want Xiao Qin to be young, his appraisal level is not much worse than yours. If you don't believe me, we'll see. ”
Others don't know, but Chen Lao knows very well that Qin Fan's appraisal level is not inferior to these experts in the car, and his eyesight is very vicious, even Chen Lao sighs to himself.
"Hey, I don't believe it yet."
This old man Wu is also a violent temper, and he was immediately furious when he was provoked by Old Chen. He has been engaged in antique appraisal for so many years, can he compare to a hairy boy in his twenties?
"Old Chen and Old Wu, the two of you are more than a hundred years old combined, don't pinch it in the car and make people laugh."
Seeing that the smell of gunpowder between the two was getting stronger and stronger, an old man in a black Tang costume came out to play a round.
Qin Fan noticed that the old man in a black Tang costume was the founder of the first private museum in the Republic of China, a famous antique connoisseur and collector, Mr. Ma.
"Okay, Lao Ma, I'll give you face this time, and I won't worry about Lao Chen."
Old Man Wu snorted twice, no matter how much Old Chen admired Qin Fan, he wouldn't believe it. Later, we will carry out folk treasure appreciation, and we will know whether it is a mule or a horse to come out and slip away.
"Xiaofan, let me introduce you, this is the old horse of the Guanfu Museum, you just call him Teacher Ma." Elder Chen beckoned Qin Fan over and introduced him to this Teacher Ma.
"Teacher Ma, I have seen your "Hundred Lectures" before, but I didn't expect to meet you in person."
"I often hear Elder Chen mention you, you have this kind of eyesight at a young age, which is very good." Teacher Ma glanced at Qin Fan with some curiosity, wanting to know what was so special about the young man whom Elder Chen admired so much.
"Teacher Ma praised it falsely, this time I am here to learn from all teachers."
Qin Fan is not deliberately modest, the identification of antiques requires not only eyesight, but also extensive and profound knowledge and rich experience in cultural relics. In terms of experience in appraising antiques and knowledge of cultural relics, Qin Fan is 108,000 miles behind the teacher Ma in front of him.
Mr. Ma seemed to be very satisfied with Qin Fan's modest attitude, and exchanged experience and skills in porcelain identification with him on the way.
Due to the rise of the antique collecting craze, the ranks of collectors in the Republic are growing day by day, and they have entered the era of national collection. However, among the tens of millions of collectors, there are also some people who hope to get rich overnight by collecting antiques.
Just after seven o'clock in the morning, Yanjing Antique City was already crowded with people, and there were treasure holders who heard the news of this folk treasure appraisal conference and made a special trip to find experts to identify the treasures.
Seeing this formation, Qin Fan was also a little surprised, he didn't expect the scene of the treasure appreciation conference to be so hot.
As soon as Teacher Ma and Qin Fan got out of the car, a slightly chubby man with glasses ran over sweating profusely, panting and said, "Teacher Ma, the treasure appreciation conference is about to start, let's hurry over." ”
"Manager Huang, there are a lot of people today. This treasure appreciation conference is much more lively than in previous years. ”
Looking at the scale of this folk treasure appreciation conference, they are busy today.
The organizer cleared a venue in the middle of the antique city and invited a well-known beautiful host of Yanjing TV to preside over the treasure appreciation conference.
Mr. Ma and Mr. Chen, the appraisal experts, were arranged to sit at a table more than ten meters long, where they appraised the folk heirlooms brought by the treasure holders of various collecting armies.
After Hua Dan, the head of Yanjing TV, made an opening statement, those treasure holders from all over the country lined up under the arrangement of the security guards and asked experts to identify them in turn.
After the start of the treasure appraisal meeting, several young people with press cards around their necks were filming with cameras and randomly interviewing treasure holders.
"Teacher Ma, you can show me if these copper coins are treasures and how much they are worth."
A middle-aged man in his forties came to Mr. Ma with a dirty clay pot in his hand and poured out a pile of rusty copper coins from it.
I don't know where these copper coins came from, and they emit a smell of pig dung, and the smell makes people almost vomit out their breakfast.
"I'm sorry, but I dug this clay pot out of the pigsty, and it tastes a little."
Mr. Ma didn't mind at all, and wore white gloves to carefully identify the pile of ancient copper coins for the middle-aged man.
"This fellow, these copper coins you brought are common five-baht coins in ancient times. The five-baht coin is the longest-used currency in the history of numismatics in China, and more than 10 dynasties and regimes and more than 20 emperors have minted the five-baht coin. ”
"Inferred from the rust and shape above, you should be a five-baht coin from the Western Han Dynasty."
This middle-aged man didn't know much about the value of copper coins, and when he heard that this was a coin from the Western Han Dynasty, he hurriedly asked, "Teacher Ma, these copper coins from the Western Han Dynasty should be worth hundreds of thousands." ”
Teacher Ma shook his head and patiently explained, "You don't understand this, the value of copper coins is generally not based on age, but on the amount of the world. This kind of five-baht coin is very large in the world, and it can be said that it has no value. Keep it as a souvenir. ”
A look of disappointment flashed on the middle-aged man's face, thanked Mr. Ma, and left with the clay pot in his hand.
Due to Mr. Ma's fame, there are many treasure holders who come to him to identify antiques, but most of the treasures they bring are worthless fakes, and it is difficult to see truly valuable boutiques.
What's even more shocking is that some people moved a round stone from the pickle jar at home, and they also had to find Wu Minglei to identify it and insist that this was an antique handed down from their ancestors. The angry Wu Minglei rolled his eyes and explained it a long way before sending him away.
It is no wonder that in this era, the antique treasures that can be passed down are quite rare, and it is rare to find one out of a hundred.
These experts have been appraising for a long time, but nothing real has appeared.
It's just that contrary to the surging crowds of other experts, Qin Fan has very few collectors who come to him for appraisal here, and he looks very deserted.
Qin Fan had already expected this situation, but he was not too anxious, and simply leisurely crossed Erlang's legs and drank tea.
"Hello, are you also a brick family?"
At this time, a blonde and blue-eyed long-legged girl came over curiously, looked at Qin Fan, and accosted him in a somewhat stiff Mandarin.
"Foreign friends? Do you have any antiques that need to be identified, you can take them out for me to see. Qin Fan didn't expect that the first person who came to him for identification was actually a foreign girl, which was a bit interesting.
"My name is Anne, I am an international student at Yenching University, and I love Chinese culture." Anne saw that Qin Fan seemed to be very talkative, and chatted with him with a smile.
"Yan Da? Then we are alumni. ”
Qin Fan smiled and showed Anne his student ID.
"Department of Archaeology, Qin Fan. Great, you must be very knowledgeable about antiques, and I have a bottle here for you to identify. ”
Hearing that the young brick family in front of her turned out to be a student of Yan University, Anne's attitude towards him suddenly became much more enthusiastic, and she took out a celestial ball bottle from the box she was carrying and placed it in front of Qin Fan.
"Can I get my hands on it?"
The moment he saw this celestial globe bottle, Qin Fan's eyes lit up, this celestial globe jar was made of pink and blue glazed gluttonous patterns, and the workmanship was quite exquisite, and it could be seen at a glance that this should be an object with a wide open door. (In antique terminology, encountering genuine goods is called opening the door)
"Absolutely."
Qin Fan wore white gloves and carefully held this pink and blue glazed gluttonous pattern celestial globe bottle and studied it carefully.
"I wonder if I can ask where you got this bottle?"
After a long time, Qin Fan's gaze reluctantly moved away from this celestial ball bottle. In his opinion, this pink and blue glazed gluttonous pattern celestial ball bottle is undoubtedly genuine, but Qin Fan is a little curious about the origin of this bottle.
"I bought this bottle for $5,000 in an antique store when I was abroad. Because I liked the bottle so much, I brought it to China. Is there anything wrong with this bottle? ”
"$5,000? Then you are lucky, this pink and blue glazed gluttonous pattern Tianqiu bottle should be a fine porcelain from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. The price in the international market will not be less than 500,000 US dollars. ”
"How much do you say? $500,000! ”
Hearing this number, Anne was stunned.
If you are confused, you will become a rich woman?
