Chapter 122: Seeing High Imitation Again?

Wu Tianyuan hurriedly diverted the topic and said: "Since you are willing, brother, then I will be disrespectful!" ”

Ma Yun laughed and said: "Cheap is not for nothing, in the future, if there are good things to find me first, especially swords and copper furnaces, it is best to have a treasure Xuande furnace, then it will be enjoyable." ”

Wu Tianyuan's heart moved, he really had a Xuande furnace in his hand, the real product of the Ming Dynasty, it was very likely to be the three-year system of Xuande. Fortunately, I forgot to bring it today, otherwise it would be really difficult to refuse looking at the obsessive appearance of horse luck.

"I'll take the jade sword first, and I'll call you tomorrow and send the copper furnace to your company. Old man, give me a copy of the rubbings of these three ancient coins? ”

Ma Lao remembered that it was so easy to see the treasure coin, and he almost forgot the most important rubbing!

"Don't worry, I'll keep you for research first, and then put it in the museum together when I'm done."

Wu Tianyuan said with a smile, good things are only useful if they are appreciated, Ma Lao is his own person, so he will keep it first to make the old man happy.

Ma Yun was stunned for a moment and asked curiously: "You want to build a museum?" Where is it? ”

"It's in the East Fourth Ring Road, Jianye's project, which was originally an art center, and I ran a museum with Brother Hu. The formalities have just come down, and it will be able to run internally next month, mainly because friends have a place to communicate, and when the time comes, please ask my brother to appreciate his face. ”

"Okay, this event is my favorite." Ma Yun clapped his hands and said: "I also have a lot of collections at home, you remember to leave me an exhibition hall, and go to the exhibition if you have nothing to do!" ”

"No problem, everyone will be able to see Ma Daxia's demeanor by then!"

The three of them chatted for more than an hour before they dispersed, and this time they inadvertently met the big local tyrant Ma Yun, it seems that the local tyrant likes to collect, but most people don't know. Also, if there is so much money that it must be a number, it is difficult to buy a favorite if you have money, and everyone has a hobby.

"This is Wang Shixiang's old collection that you exchanged from Ma Yun?"

The next day, the six copper furnaces were sent to Zhongzheng, everyone gathered around to see, Sun Yuyao took out the self-cherished collection of the old man Wang, compared it and said excitedly: "They are all the old collections of Wang Lao, the authentic products of the orderly inheritance, it happens that next month is the tenth anniversary of Wang Shixiang's birth, and Zhongzheng will be on Wang Shixiang's special session!" ”

"Yes, I heard that the Kuang clan is also collecting Wang Shixiang's old collection, and it should also be on a special session, and this time I can do it again!"

Liu Meizi spent money to buy the news of Kuang's family, but she didn't expect to meet again for the second time, and it was better to come early than to come by chance.

"Okay, the next step is to collect Wang Shixiang's old collections, Jiade 02 autumn auction launched Wang Shixiang's old collections, more than 560 collections are unveiled for the first time. It includes more than 380 precious books, including Ming and Qing editions, as well as many manuscripts and manuscripts of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, as well as Wang Shixiang's own copy. ”

"Many groups of official mold gourds in Wang Shixiang's "Speaking of Gourds" and "Self-Treasured Collection" were also sold at high prices. Although the gourd is small, it is Wang Shixiang's belongings, which have accompanied him through a long time, including "Late Qing Dynasty Official Mold Water Margin Story Gourd" and "Official Mold Yunlonglin Lion Gourd" and so on. ”

Sun Yuyao found out the auction records of that year, and began to assign tasks to find the customers to collect, after more than ten years, there should be someone who wants to re-auction Wang Lao's old collection.

"The next one is called the first player in the capital, how domineering!"

Liu Meizi had a flash of inspiration and said: "I also asked my father to look for it in Japan, maybe there is also Wang Lao's old collection, and they will be auctioned together when the time comes." ”

There are still more than three weeks before the auction, and Zhongzheng is now becoming more and more famous, and has launched many new offers, such as free appraisal at auction, and more than three commissions and other means. Many Tibetan friends are willing to let Zhongzheng Auction, especially Liulichang, send dozens of lots, and there are more and more channels.

"You can focus on the collection of high-quality products now, whether it is to pick up the leaks yourself, or to collect the collection of local tyrants. Leave it to me and Yanamiko, and you can make it easier. ”

Wu Tianyuan nodded, and when the museum is running, if there is something to ask local tyrants and connoisseurs to go there, it will be convenient to communicate. After the official exhibition to the outside world, with fame, it is estimated that they will rush to put the collection in the Tianyuan exhibition, how refreshing it is.

In the next few days, Wu Tianyuan ran on three sides, going to Zhongzheng in the morning, going to Tianyuanju in the afternoon, going to the museum when he had time, and discussing some details with the management team. It's busy, but it's also fulfilling and motivating.

"Boss Wu, are you busy?"

Wu Tianyuan had just arrived at Tianyuanju, Lao Tian was not there, and he stared at the storefront. Suddenly there was a knock on the door, and a man came in.

"Isn't this the shopkeeper Liu in the west? Something? ”

Wu Tianyuan greeted with a smile, someone who came to know him, and he was also the owner of the glaze factory, and he opened a shop in the west.

"Nothing to do in the Three Treasures Palace, there are good things I want you to see."

Shopkeeper Liu put down the package in his hand, opened it with a smile, and three antique copper stoves appeared in front of him.

"What is this?"

Wu Tianyuan hurriedly picked it up and studied it carefully, the three of them are all Xuande furnaces, and the bottom paragraph is a two-word paragraph, Xuande!

"Where did it come from?"

"I tell others that it's an old collection, but you're a big connoisseur, and to tell you the truth, you came by shoveling the land, and the farmer just dug it up."

Shopkeeper Liu said in a low voice: "I have found someone to see it, it is all the real Xuande year!" ”

Wu Tianyuan didn't speak, took down the copper furnace, and asked, "Did you come up with this?" ”

"Hehe, I've been short on money lately, and business is not good. Boss Wu is a local tyrant, are you interested? ”

Liulichang knows that Wu Tianyuan is a rich man, and he has been looking for good things recently, and these three are treasures today.

"What's the price?"

"Three fifty million, authentic Xuande furnace, no loss!"

Wu Tianyuan laughed and said: "Fifty million if three authentic Xuande furnaces are not a loss, but you are not true!" ”

"What?" Shopkeeper Liu was taken aback, and quickly retorted: "You can't talk nonsense!" I've seen a lot of people, and this skin color ......."

Wu Tianyuan waved his hand and said softly: "Don't be impatient, listen to me!" ”

"I'm not talking about it, I'm not saying that the copper furnace is a modern imitation! It is indeed the Xuande furnace of the Ming Dynasty, but it is not the batch of rare treasures personally supervised by the Xuande Emperor. ”

"This?" Shopkeeper Liu hesitated a little, he naturally knew that the Xuande furnace was too famous, and there were imitations in all dynasties, but why was Wu Tianyuan so sure that he was not the most precious batch?

"Take a look at this first!"

Wu Tianyuan turned around and took out Wu Bangzuo's Xuande furnace atlas and let the shopkeeper Liu look at it. After a while, he sighed and said: "Sure enough, it is the Xuande furnace imitated by Wu Bangzuo, not the treasure of Xuande for three years!" ”

Xuande furnace is a copper incense burner designed and supervised by Zhu Zhanji of Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty in Xuande of the Ming Dynasty for three years, referred to as "Xuanlu". It is the first bronze ware in Chinese history to be cast from wind-milled copper. In order to make a high-quality copper furnace, under the personal supervision of Zhu Zhanji, the whole process of making a copper furnace.

The most wonderful thing about Xuande furnace is the color, its color melts inside, and it shines from the gloom. There are more than 40 kinds of colors recorded in historical records, which are loved by the world, and there are many names for their colors. For example, the purple with blue and black like eggplant skin is called eggplant skin color; The black and yellow like the Tibetan scripture paper is called the Tibetan scripture color; black and white with red and yellowish yellow, called brown; The white and yellow with red color like Tang pear is called Tang pear color.

Xiang Yuanbian (Zijing), a great connoisseur, collector and painter during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, said: "The wonder of the Xuan furnace is pearlescent in the treasure color, and it is surging on the outside. ”

This batch of red copper cast a total of 3,000 incense burners, never produced again, Emperor Xuande saw this batch of incense burners that he personally asked, each one is abnormal in atmosphere, full of treasure, very sense of achievement.

Most of it was displayed in various parts of the court, and a small part was rewarded and distributed to the imperial relatives. After hundreds of years of ups and downs, the copper incense burner cast in three years of Xuande is rare.

Shopkeeper Liu sighed: "From the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty to the Republic of China, the activities of antique dealers imitating Xuande furnace have never stopped. Just after the Xuande furnace stopped manufacturing, some officials in charge of the casting of the department summoned the original casting furnace craftsmen to imitate the Xuande furnace according to the drawings and process procedures. These carefully cast imitations can be comparable to the real one, and the authority of experts can not be distinguished, so far many Xuande furnaces in the collection of major museums in China, none of them can be recognized as the real Xuande furnace by many connoisseurs, and the identification of real and false Xuande furnaces has become one of the "unsolved cases" in Chinese archaeology. ”

This is the Xuande furnace made by Wu Bangzuo at that time, he is a master craftsman, and he is also the supervisor of smelting and casting Xuande furnace, and he is also the designer of the furnace type, style and color. Later, a large number of bronze vessels were cast for the palace temple, and at the same time, copper furnaces were privately cast for sale, all of which were exquisite and very precious to the world. ”

Wu Tianyuan deliberately played with a copper furnace and said with a smile: "So these three of you are definitely Xuande furnaces in the Ming Dynasty, but I don't think they are the batch of Xuande for three years. ”

Shopkeeper Liu carefully checked the place pointed out by Wu Tianyuan, and it was exactly the same, it seemed that he was indeed not the batch of Xuande for three years.

Seeing the disappointed look of Shopkeeper Liu, Wu Tianyuan comforted: "Even if it is not the third year of Xuande, Wu Bangzuo Xuande furnace is already rare. The Forbidden City has Wu Bangzuo's elephant ear three-legged copper furnace, the whole body is dark green, no ornamentation, just like a glazed Song kiln porcelain, brilliant, cast Seiko. Another piece of copper inlaid gold animal ear bottle, copper blue and red pure, inlaid with gold sheet throughout, with double animal live ring ears on the shoulder, the bottom engraved with the Yang text "Wu Bang Zuo Du made" paragraph. These three bronzes are all representative works of Bonzo cast copper. ”

"What an eye-opener today! Boss Wu really deserves to be a master of identification, and even has such a precious furnace score, so do you see? ”

"That's it, your baby is a good thing, I want it too, Ming people don't say secret words, I can give up to nine million, three!"

Shopkeeper Liu hesitated for a while, 50 million Xuande is not a loss for three years! However, his own is Wu Bangzuo's imitation, and there are still some surviving volumes, and several of the auctions the year before last were sold for more than 2 million, and Wu Tianyuan's price is also fair.

"Okay, it's yours!"

The money and goods were cleared, Wu Tianyuan sent away the shopkeeper Liu, and there was a burst of ecstasy in his heart, and he said secretly: "Haha, I missed it again!" Nine million to buy two Xuande for three years! ”
