Chapter 23 The White City Porcelain Market

Putting down the phone, Zhao Zhuo couldn't help but snort coldly, what a Tong Feiyu, he actually came up with such a despicable trick, and reported six games in one go, which means that he must find six porcelains in a short period of time, and at the same time, he must also surpass it in total value in order to be able to keep the Golden Chamber.

Ji Xiaofan punched the table and said, "When did Tong Feiyu become so insidious, it was really too deceitful!" ”

Zhao Zhuo said lightly: "This proposal is not necessarily what Tong Feiyu thought, it is likely to be Tong Dongyang's idea, although Tong Feiyu is a bit of a city, but he is not sophisticated." ”

Ji Xiaofan said suddenly: "By the way, I'll ask my grandfather to see if I can ......."

Zhao Zhuo waved his hand and said: "Don't alarm Grandpa Ji about this matter, the porcelain you spent three years to find was originally prepared for this porcelain festival, why am I embarrassed to take it for nothing?" Don't worry, even if there is not much time, I may not lose to Tong Feiyu and them! ”

Ji Xiaofan said: "Brother Zhao, then we will go to the porcelain market tomorrow!" ”

Zhao Zhuo nodded, then returned to the guest room and lay down, as soon as he lay down, Mo Ling said: "Big brother, time is very urgent, are you really sure?" ”

Zhao Zhuo smiled slightly and said with emotion: "I don't know the bottom in my heart, but I must have confidence, otherwise wouldn't I have lost psychologically before the game started?" ”

Mo Ling asked, "Then are we going to start with the most expensive Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasty porcelain?" ”

Zhao Zhuo shook his head slightly and said: "I can't focus on the porcelain of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, although the value of the porcelain of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties is high, but it is high on the average price, and the lowest price of the late Qing Dynasty porcelain is also low on the average price, however, in recent years, the price of porcelain in the late Qing Dynasty has also risen sharply, last year, foreign auctions were auctioned out of the late Qing porcelain worth tens of millions, and there was also one in the first half of this year, reaching 15 million. Therefore, we must not let go of any possibility. ”

Mo Ling agreed: "Big brother is right, then we will go to the porcelain market tomorrow, let's go our separate ways!" It's more efficient that way! ”

Zhao Zhuo nodded, closed his eyes and remembered that there were three major events in front of him, one was to study the authenticity of Tang Yin's paintings that would appear at the auction, the second was to help Kong Xiangfeng gather the jade carvings of the Zodiac series, and the third was to find the porcelain needed for the Dou Porcelain Festival.

Of course, in addition, it is necessary to restore the Hongxian porcelain and the Song Dynasty Jun kiln, but because he wants to find the porcelain on the Dou Porcelain Festival, Zhao Zhuo can only put this matter aside first, after all, even the raw materials have not yet arrived.

As one of the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty, the Jun kiln itself is considered to be a top grade, but in recent years, the auction market is more popular is the porcelain of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, not to mention the official kiln porcelain of the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty, so the price of Song porcelain is very different.

The reason is that there are too few Song porcelain treasures, and the treasures rarely appear at auction, so the highest auction price of porcelain in the Song Dynasty is only more than 67 million, and the record is set by the official kiln powder blue glazed paper hammer bottle in the Southern Song Dynasty, which is exquisite in the production of the male Song Dynasty, and is expected to exceed 50 million before the auction, and finally was soared to more than 60 million by a bidder, directly refreshing the record of porcelain in the Song Dynasty.

However, such a maximum price is a bit of a dwarf if compared to Qing dynasty porcelain. Among the porcelain of the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, the most popular is of course Qing dynasty porcelain, and the highest price of Qing ware is the Qing Qianlong pastel hollow porcelain vase auctioned at a foreign auction house last year, and the transaction price is 51.6 million pounds, about 550 million yuan, that is to say, the highest price of Song porcelain can only be equivalent to a fraction of this.

Of course, it is unlikely that such an amazing rare treasure will appear at the Baicheng Dou Porcelain Festival, because in the conversation with Ji Xiaofan, more than ten sessions of the Dou Porcelain Festival have been held one after another, and the highest porcelain in the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties is only more than 20 million, and the porcelain of the Song Dynasty is also closely followed, with more than 10 million, so Zhao Zhuo must even pay attention to the porcelain of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, because the fine products of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China can also reach the level of 10 million.

However, the price of the gold-painted bottle should be about four or five million, so there is no way to use this gold-painted bottle to participate in the competition, and you have to find another way.

Fortunately, Zhao Zhuo's total assets are nearly 20 million, and it is convenient to do things.

Early the next morning, Zhao Zhuo and Ji Xiaofan rushed to the ancient porcelain market.

In the land of Baicheng, porcelain and jade basically occupy half of the sky, because Baicheng has been a place of porcelain production since ancient times, and there is a small famous kiln, of course, in modern times, a large number of porcelain factories have been built around the kiln, specializing in the production of modern porcelain and high-imitation porcelain, so the porcelain market in Baicheng is naturally flooded with fakes.

However, the kiln also has a history of hundreds of years, although it is only a private kiln, but there is no shortage of fine products that have been fired, and these handed down porcelain are still circulating in the countryside.

A porcelain market, although it is still very early, but there are already many people, the porcelain market is divided into two by a avenue, half of the modern porcelain handicraft market, the other half is the ancient porcelain market, Ji Xiaofan told Zhao Zhuo, although this is a class, in fact, the ancient porcelain market is innumerable, compared to the black market is not inferior at all, ninety-nine percent are fakes, however, the real product is not nothing, here are the sellers of antique stalls There are many people who go to the countryside to buy antiques every once in a while, but to distinguish, that is really by eyesight.

The two of them walked around the market and found that the stalls here either exclusively sell fakes and high-quality imitations, or they are mixed, and the real ones are pitiful. ”

Zhao Zhuo turned his head and smiled, isn't that Jing Yao? She was with Sister Wang, and she was in front of a stall at this time, Sister Wang was holding a phoenix-tailed statue in her hand, and Jing Yao whispered something in her ear.

Seeing Zhao Zhuo smiling, Ji Xiaofan seemed to notice something, and said tentatively: "Brother Zhao shouldn't know her, right?" ”

"I really know each other, let's go, I'll introduce you." Zhao Zhuo smiled, walked over, and then introduced several people.

What Ji Xiaofan saw just now was only the side of Jing Yao, and now when he sees her front, he is even more shocked, if Han Duoer's beauty is full of fashion and vitality, then Jing Yao is noble and generous demeanor, coupled with that arrogant look, people want to look up but dare not face it.

However, with Zhao Zhuo here, Jing Yao's face was not so repulsive, but he was surprised: "Why are you here?" ”

Zhao Zhuo smiled and said, "I'll take a look." ”

"That's right, help take a look at this phoenix tail, I know a little bit about porcelain, you should be more proficient." Jing Yao said, and handed over the phoenix tail.

Sister Wang couldn't help but look at him more when she saw Jing Yao value Zhao Zhuo so much, at the beginning in the Lanjing Auction House, although she saw this young man with Ji Yuan, she didn't care much, but now she saw him with Ji Yuan's grandson, and Ji Xiaofan was even called Brother Zhao, and she couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

Zhao Zhuo took the phoenix tail to come, this phoenix tail is a unique instrument type in the Kangxi period, which evolved from the flower goose of the Yuan and Ming dynasties, the overall shape is a trumpet-shaped mouth, the neck is straight, the abdomen is round and bulging, the flat bottom is skimmed, the bottom circle is mostly a two-layer platform circle foot, because the lower part of the abdomen to the sole of the foot extends like a phoenix tail and gets the name.

The phoenix tail in his hand, the overall style is graceful and luxurious, the color is delicate and rich, noble and elegant, and it is indeed very eye-catching.

The stall owner is a 25 or 6-year-old young man, wearing a peaked cap with a bright smile on his face, seeing Zhao Zhuo distinguishing, he smiled on the side: "Sir, this is the goods that our boss specially recovered from the countryside, although it is only a thing from the folk kiln, but you look at this shape, this color, absolutely good goods." ”

Zhao Zhuo smiled and said, "How much?" ”

"20,000!" The cap replied quickly.

Zhao Zhuo smiled and asked Sister Wang, "Sister Wang, this is the real product of the Qing Dynasty, do you want it?" ”

"I don't necessarily want it, but if it's 20,000 yuan, it still feels a little expensive." Sister Wang said very sensibly.

The cap smiled and said, "Sister, this is the price, if you are not satisfied, you can also take a look at the others." ”

"For the rest, you seem to see what you have here." Sister Wang said.

The cap smiled mysteriously and said: "Eldest sister, this wealth is not exposed, if you really want to be expensive, then we have it, but it can cost tens of millions." ”

"Oh, it's so expensive?" Sister Wang suddenly became interested.

The cap couldn't help but say proudly: "The eldest sister knows the champion village, right?" ”

"Champion Village?" Sister Wang glanced at Jing Yao, Jing Yao looked at Zhao Zhuo, and Zhao Zhuo looked at Ji Xiaofan.

Ji Xiaofan is worthy of being a native of Baicheng, and explained: "It is a remote village under Baicheng, and there was a champion in the Ming Dynasty who became a big official, so the village was renamed Zhuangyuan Village." ”

The cap smiled and said: "This gentleman is right, our boss is a person from Zhuangyuan Village, he has a lot of good goods there, if a few are interested, I can take a few to Zhuangyuan Village for a trip, it is only half an hour away, to ensure that a few are worth the trip." ”

Sister Wang asked Jing Yao and the others, "How is it, do you want to go and have a look?" ”

Ji Xiaofan whispered: "Zhuangyuan Village is a bit remote there, and I heard that the security is not very good. ”

Sister Wang smiled and said, "What are you afraid of, aren't there two of you big men here?" Let's go, this rich and noble are all said to be in danger, since there is a village that has produced the champion, how can you not go to see it? ”

Zhao Zhuo also laughed and said, "Since Sister Wang has spoken, then let's go and be bodyguards." ”

Seeing that everyone nodded, the cap called a person next to him to watch the stall, and then took a few to the side of the small truck.
