Chapter 46: The True Xuande Furnace (Part II)
At more than ten o'clock in the morning, Tang Dou, who was dusty, parked his Grand Cherokee in the parking lot at the entrance of the antique street, quickly took out the folded wheelchair from the trunk, wiped it clean and pushed it to the side of the car.
The spirited Yang Yan had also come out of the car at this time, wearing a dark Tang suit, round cloth shoes, and his short gray hair, the whole person contained a kind of vicissitudes of antiquity.
Tang Dou and Yang Deng carefully carried Yang Deng's mother to the wheelchair and placed it, and took Yang Yiyan's hand to the two handles behind the wheelchair.
Although it was the first day of school, for such a big event, Yang Deng could only call his tutor to ask for a day off and accompany Tang Dou home to pick up his parents.
Guiding Yang Yan slowly towards his shop, Tang Dou secretly glanced at Yang from time to time.
The expression on Yang Yiyan's face seemed to be very calm, but from the attentive expression he listened to from time to time, Tang Dou knew that Yang Yiyan's heart must be uncalm at this moment.
Think about it, because of antiques and quit the antique world, even lost their eyes for this, after more than ten years of absence, set foot in the antique street again, no one's heart will be calm.
"Uncle Yang, it's here." Stopping at the door of the past and present, Tang Dou hurriedly beckoned Zhang Chunlai, who was at the door, to reach out and carry Yang Deng's mother's wheelchair into the store.
Yang Deng held Yang Yan and just walked up the steps, and a hearty laugh had already come out of the store: "Old thing, you are finally willing to climb out of the reed pit." ”
Zhou Lao had already strode out of the store, and reached out to shake Yang Yanyan's arm vigorously.
The two big hands with the same vicissitudes of life were separated for more than ten years and finally held together again, but Yang Yan looked angry: "Old guy, it's not because you took in a good apprentice and kidnapped Lao Tzu's baby daughters, I came to the door to settle accounts with you." ”
The two of them held hands and laughed, helped each other and walked into the store.
Tang Dou had already cleaned up the back house, and at this time opened the security door and invited the second elder and his party to enter the back house, after all, it was a little inconvenient for so many people to be in the store.
Zhou Lao didn't come alone, there were three people who came from Huangpu City with him, Gao Mingde counted one, and two of them were about sixty years old, and one was forty years old, and they didn't seem to be ordinary people.
Invite a few people to sit down on the sofa in the living room, Tang Dou took out a set of Shaoxing pottery pots, Yang Deng took over to make tea, Zhou Lao smiled and introduced Tang Dou to the two people who came with him, the old one is the famous Tongxing pawnshop appraiser Zha Yongsheng in the Huangpu City collection industry, and the young one is Jiang Yuan, the chief appraiser of Huangpu Baode International Auction Company, these two are friends of Zhou Lao in the collection world, since Zhou Lao invited the two of them to walk together, presumably these two people also have their own uniqueness for antique appraisal.
When the two of them heard that Tang Dou was a personal disciple accepted by Zhou Lao, they immediately showed a moderate amount of enthusiasm.
The three of them exchanged business cards and sat down, but the eyes of the two kept glancing at Yang Yiyan, who was sitting next to Zhou Lao, but Zhou Lao obviously didn't mean to introduce Yang Yiyan to the two of them.
However, Gao Mingde had already guessed the identity of this blind old man, and he was so excited that he couldn't control himself, but Old Zhou didn't express his intention to introduce Yang Yiyan to everyone, and he didn't dare to rush forward to call him.
In fact, Old Zhou also took into account Yang's feelings, who knows if this strong old man will return to his reed pit in anger and not come out, then he has no intention of doing something wrong.
Yang Deng made tea and sent it to several old men.
Zha Yongsheng smiled and said: "Don't be busy drinking tea, I looked at the photos that Zhou Lao gave me, and now I am still sitting on pins and needles under my buttocks." Boss Tang, let's invite the baby out and let us open our eyes. ”
The Xuande furnace is too valuable, when Tang Dou went to Yuzhou to pick up Yang Yiyan and his wife yesterday, he solemnly locked the Xuande furnace into the safe, even so, Mengzi also stayed awake all night holding the root top door latch, for fear that something would go wrong.
Zhou Lao and they rushed over from Huangpu more than an hour earlier than Tang Dou came back from Yuzhou, but unfortunately they couldn't see the objects, and they could only wait patiently for Tang Dou to come back.
Tang Dou smiled, hurriedly got up and ran to the front, opened the safe and took out the Xuande furnace that had been packaged in a gift box, and carefully placed it on the coffee table in front of several people.
A few people thought that Zhou Lao would be the first to get started, but they didn't expect Zhou Lao to just glance at the Xuande furnace, so he smiled and said to Yang beside him: "Old thing, the baby is this kid, or you come first." ”
A blind man can also appreciate antiques?
Zha Yongsheng and Jiang Yuan both stared at Yang's face.
Yang didn't look polite, didn't even wear gloves, directly reached out and groped to pick up the Xuande furnace from the coffee table, carefully put it on his knees, and groped the bottom of the Xuande furnace with his fingers, very carefully, very slowly, and frowned slightly from time to time, as if he was engraved in his mind The style of this base is compared with the style in his memory.
Almost a cup of hot tea, Yang gave up the bottom at a glance, and followed the bottom of the furnace to carefully grope the three-legged and coiling dragon and other decorations on the Xuande furnace, and it was the kung fu of two teas, Yang Yiyan clasped his middle finger along the body of the Xuande furnace and flicked it carefully, and the room made a monotonous and rhythmic 'ding' sound like the sound of the empty valley spring.
After a long time, Yang Yan finally put the Xuande stove back on the coffee table, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, took out a palm-length dry tobacco pouch from his pocket, filled it with tobacco leaves, lit it, and took a puff of intoxicated beauty, looking confident.
Zhou Lao smiled, picked up the gloves that had been placed on the coffee table and put them on, and also picked up the Xuande stove and put it on his lap, and the magnifying glass strong light flashlight went into battle one by one, and he looked at it for another twenty minutes, then he smiled and put the Xuande stove back on the coffee table, looked at Zha Yongsheng who was sitting opposite and said: "Yongsheng Xiaojiang, you are all experts, you should also come and see." ”
Zha Yongsheng couldn't hold back for a long time, and owed Jiang Yuan and Gao Mingde: "The old man has conceded." ”
Zha Yongsheng watched for a longer time, almost more than half an hour, and even Jiang Yuan and Gao Mingde couldn't bear it anymore, so he put the Xuande furnace in front of Jiang Yuan and Gao Mingde, closed his eyes and fell into contemplation.
Jiang Yuan was polite to Gao Mingde, reached out and picked up the alloy box at his feet, opened the lid of the box, and revealed the dazzling tools inside, worthy of being the chief appraiser of Baode International Auction Company, this equipment is beyond the reach of Zhou Lao, absolutely professional.
Jiang Yuan only took a cursory look at the bottom and the shape of the vessel, and immediately measured the various numbers of the Xuande furnace, and entered a laptop next to him from time to time.
After some measurements, Jiang Yuan raised his head and said, "According to the test, the materials used in this Xuande furnace contain a large proportion of high-density metals, otherwise although the volume of this Xuande furnace is large enough, it will definitely not reach four thousand two hundred and ninety-eight grams. ”
There is a slight deviation between the number jù measured by Jiang Yuan and the number jù measured by Yang Deng, after all, the instrument used by Jiang Yuan is more professional, and Yang Deng has no objection to this.
At this time, Jiang Yuan looked at Tang Dou, who seemed to be a little drowsy on the side, and asked, "Brother Tang, can I scrape a little powder on the soles of my feet in this Xuande furnace?" A little is enough. ”
"Absolutely not." The two old voices sounded at the same time, and it was Zhou Lao and Yang who came out at a glance, startling Jiang Yuan, who was questioning.
Jiang Yuan grinned, how to analyze the material used in this Xuande furnace if this does not allow scraping powder?
Zhou Lao looked at Jiang Yuan, who was taken aback, smiled apologetically, and said, "Xiao Jiang, if you want to scrape some powder on this Xuande stove, then it is better to cut a piece of meat on the tip of my old Zhou's heart." I can use my personality to guarantee that this Xuande furnace is definitely the genuine product produced in Xuande for three years, and if there is any deviation, I am willing to bear a legal responsibility. ”
"Huh?" Jiang Yuan's mouth opened wide.
At this time, Yang Yiyan also raised his head, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "I, Yang Yiyan, can also use my personality to guarantee that this Xuande furnace is definitely made in Xuande for three years." ”
'Poof', Zha Yongsheng, who was already in his sixtieth year, got up in a panic and accidentally fell, and Tang Dou, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly helped him up with both hands.
Zha Yongsheng ignored Tang Dou, and asked Yang in a trembling voice: "You are the predecessor of Yang Yiyan, who is known as the Northern Yang and Southern Zhou?" "Mobile phone users, please visit wènhttp://mnet
