Chapter 31: Carelessness

The antique industry itself is true and false, why is there an industry of treasure connoisseurs? That is, to identify what is real and what is fake, and there are valuable and worthless antiques among fake antiques. But the treasure connoisseur is also a human being, and it is impossible to have a wide range of knowledge, unique vision, and any kind of antique can be seen clearly, and the identification is absolutely correct.

Xia Guohang's research on porcelain vases is deep, Xiao Qiang doesn't know, he only knows that this time the counterfeiting master of this blue and white porcelain vase is very good, and he has been fooled by the eyes of this treasure connoisseur. Of course, this is not to say that Xiao Qiang has a more thorough study of porcelain vases than Xia Guohang, and he found that this bottle was problematic because of coincidence.

Xiao Qiang has the special ability of perspective, and after he saw through this porcelain vase, he found that this bottle did not have any golden mist. If it was just that, he wasn't sure there must be something wrong with the vase. But coincidentally, he found that the inner wall of this blue and white porcelain vase actually left a seal from the time of firing, and the font of this seal turned out to be a modern font!

Would the ancients hundreds of years ago use modern fonts for seals? Isn't this, but what is it? That's why Xiao Qiang is sure that this porcelain vase is a valuable fake hundreds of years ago, and it is a modern fake at all!

It can be found that Xiao Qiang is now worried about how to explain to Xia Guohang. Not to mention that he couldn't explain why he couldn't see the seal on the inner wall of the porcelain vase, how could he deny the appraisal of a professional treasure connoisseur? If you really do this, wouldn't it mean that Xia Guohang is not even as good as a student of him? Isn't that a slap in the face?

After thinking about it, Xiao Qiang didn't come up with a way to not only expose Yang Yisheng's tricks but also save Xia Guohang's face, and at this time, Yang Yisheng thought about it for a while and said, "Mr. Xia, we don't do business once or twice, since you get straight to the point, then I'll tell you the truth." This purple air from the east blue and white porcelain vase is the best antique I have picked recently, and I have also shown it to some other treasure connoisseurs, and I also have an idea of the price of this porcelain vase. If you feel like you can...... How about 800,000? ”

800,000! Xiao Qiang was frightened by this number and gasped, this guy is really a lion's mouth, bragging about not paying taxes! It costs 800,000 yuan to open the mouth with a fake bottle, which is even more robbing money than robbing money!

But what surprised Xiao Qiang even more was that Xia Guohang did not show his shocked face, but nodded after thinking about it, "If the blue and white porcelain from the purple qi donglai is genuine, I am afraid that judging from the integrity of this porcelain vase, it is worth at least three or four million." Although this is a fake, after all, this picture jar porcelain is a popular item in the antique world, and it is not too much for you to ask for 800,000 yuan, but if I sell it, there will be no profit margin. Well, how about half a million? If Boss Yang agrees, then I'll buy it! ”

Xiao Qiang was anxious when he heard this, he bought a fake for 500,000 yuan and let Yang Yisheng make a lot of money, which was a loss to his grandmother's house! He really wants to sue him now that this picture jar is a fake in a fake! But when he opened his mouth, he couldn't say anything, because he knew that once he said it, he wouldn't be able to explain it anyway!

"Five hundred thousand? This one...... Seems a little less, right? Can you add points? This Yang Yisheng was embarrassed, pretending to be pretending to be a meeting and gritted his teeth and said, "In this way, we don't have much to say between our friends, 600,000, if it's okay, take it!" ”

Xia Guohang thought about it and said with a smile, "It seems that Boss Yang has done a lot of homework and has already arranged the reserve price." Okay, I think this picture jar is worth the price. ”

"Uncle Xia...... This picture jar ......" Xiao Qiang couldn't help but exclaim when he heard that Xia Guohang had promised to spend 600,000 yuan to buy this fake bottle, but he couldn't say anything before the words fell.

"What? Xiao Qiang, are you also familiar with this picture jar? Xia Guohang didn't expect Xiao Qiang to suddenly speak up, and said with a smile, "What do you want to say?" It's okay, you can say it boldly! ”

"Huh, just him? He could see what a flower head! Xia Yao didn't expect her father to respect Xiao Qiang so much, and she clasped her hands together and said dissatisfiedly, "Dad, you better don't let him be ugly, so as not to make outsiders laugh." ”

"Xia Yao! How to speak? Xia Guohang glared at his daughter, Xia Yao pursed his lips and turned his head to stop talking.

Xiao Qiang didn't take Xia Yao's words seriously at this time, he was now thinking about what to do. It is obviously not okay to tell Xia Guohang that this is a fake, but to let Xia Guohang know that there is a problem with this bottle, I am afraid that the only way to let him see the seal on the inner wall is to let him see it. But how...... Can Xia Guohang find out by accident? No matter how you look at it, I'm afraid you can only destroy this porcelain vase!

Wait a minute...... Ruined? At this time, he suddenly seemed to think of something, his eyes lit up and he smiled, "Uncle Xia, I want to study this picture jar, can you show it to me?" ”

"Oh? Hehe, of course there is no problem, you can also increase your knowledge by looking at it. This blue and white picture jar is a rare goodie. Xia Guohang was slightly surprised, but he still smiled and handed the picture jar to Xiao Qiang.

Xiao Qiang stretched out his hand to pick up the blue and white porcelain picture jar, but just as Xia Guohang handed it over to him, he suddenly let go of his hand, and the entire blue and white porcelain picture jar slipped without warning and fell heavily to the ground!

"Bang!!" What happens when a porcelain vase falls to the ground is naturally self-evident, in the stunned eyes of everyone, this purple qi from the east auspicious picture jar instantly split, porcelain pieces scattered in all directions!

Everyone in the room gasped and fell silent......

"You...... You, you, you...... Xiao Qiang!! Xia Yao's beautiful eyes widened, and she couldn't help but be the first to speak out with a shocked expression, and angrily pointed at Xiao Qiang, who was pretending to be surprised, and said, "You, you actually broke ...... Smashed such a valuable porcelain vase picture jar! ”

Not only Xia Yao, but Yang Yisheng was also full of anger, stood up violently and said with a blue face, "What kind of fame are you doing!" You couldn't hold such a precious antique well, and you smashed it! You, you are a bastard!! ”

Xia Guohang's face was also blue, this picture jar worth 600,000 yuan was really broken too suddenly, and he was naturally very sad in his heart. But because the person who broke the picture jar was Xiao Qiang, he could only frown helplessly and said, "Boss Yang, it's my fault in this matter, I may not have held my hand steady when I handed it to Xiao Qiang just now, and he is a novice, so he ......."

"Mr. Xia, then you mean that the broken picture jar has something to do with you, right?" Yang Yisheng was angry, but he quickly came back to his senses and said seriously, "We have negotiated the price of this picture jar, but now it is broken, will you pay for the money of this picture jar?" ”

"This ......" Xia Guohang was flustered, it would definitely hurt to spend 600,000 yuan to buy a bunch of broken porcelain pieces for anyone, and the broken porcelain jar would be degraded even if it was reglued, but there was no way, who let Xiao Qiang break this picture jar? Helpless, he could only grit his teeth and say, "Okay, this money...... I'll pay for it! ”

"Uncle Xia, I'm sorry......" Xiao Qiang said a little embarrassed, "I was careless, I didn't know that this porcelain jar was so heavy......"

"Accidentally? Xiao Qiang, what a careless sentence! If you're not careful, you'll have to make my dad pay hundreds of thousands, you know? Xia Yao said with a coquettish face, "You are too much!" Even a person like you who wants to learn to identify antiques, I think you're here to make trouble! ”

Xia Yao's words Xiao Qiang directly fell on deaf ears, and without answering, he squatted down and began to take the initiative to pick up the pieces. Xia Guohang sighed, and also picked up the fragments with him, and said as he picked them up, "Xiao Qiang, the fragments have to be picked up carefully, even a little bit of repair will lack integrity, and the value will be even lower." I know a master of antique restoration, and if I ask him to restore it, I might be able to lose ......."

"Huh! Uncle Xia, why does this fragment seem to have words on it? Can you show me? Xiao Qiang suddenly interrupted Xia Guohang's words, and strangely handed him a fragment, and that fragment had the seal of a modern font on it!
