“…… Well, this carved dragon jade pendant is also good, it should be a work in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, and the pulp is round, the texture is also good, it should be a high-grade Hetian mutton fat white jade. Looking at the carving and modeling, it should be the handle of the princes and nobles in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, according to the current market situation, this jade pendant will be at least eight or nine hundred thousand ......."

Fang Bo put down the last jade pendant in his hand, then pinched his eyebrows, and said with a long breath.

This time, Jin Muchen didn't answer the phone, but began to calculate in his heart, the lady's bottle would cost more than one million, plus the double peach pen wash, it would also cost hundreds of thousands, plus these miscellaneous things in the back.

If you calculate it, if these things are auctioned in China, it is estimated that they should be able to fetch a price of eight or nine million, and it will only cost you a total of nine hundred thousand dollars to buy these things.

In this way, even if you don't have that gold fixture, you will definitely not lose money on this trip.

Now I should be making a lot of money.

"Hey, why do you still have a suitcase here? How many treasures did you kid take this time? ”

Seeing that there was still a suitcase next to the table that had not been opened, Fang Bo couldn't help but ask.

In fact, he couldn't help but be happy for Jin Muchen in his heart, this time Jin Muchen brought these things, it can be said that all of them are high-quality products, so many treasures, they were collected by him at one time, this kid is definitely picked up this time.

And there is still a box that has not been opened, could it be that there are still many good things in it?

I really didn't misunderstand this kid, his luck is really good against the sky, you must know that as far as these things are put on the table, let alone so much, it is usually difficult to get even one piece.

"Hehe, Uncle Fang, let's not look at this piece here, let's go downstairs to your studio to see it."

Jin Muchen didn't rush to open the suitcase this time, but said to Uncle Fang that Uncle Fang's store was closed at this time, but the lights were still on in the store, and you could see the situation inside the store through the window on the street.

Because the shops in the United States are generally not like those in China, they will install anti-theft doors and windows, so if someone really sees the good things he is about to take out, he is really afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.

"You kid, what's in this box? It's so mysterious! ”

Uncle Fang said with a smile, but he didn't refuse him, the two of them packed the things on the table together, and then went downstairs together with two suitcases.

Fang Bo's antique shop also has a basement, which was converted into his studio by Fang Bo, and is here when he usually studies something good or restores some old objects.

And some of the good things in the store are usually stored in the safe in the basement.

The two of them came downstairs and put the good things that Jin Muchen had collected today into a newly bought safe, and then came to Uncle Fang's desk one after another.

Jin Muchen opened the suitcase and carefully took out the white porcelain bowl and put it on the table.

Fang Bo glanced at it, his expression became serious, and then he put on his reading glasses and took a closer look.

"It's ......"

Fang Bo's expression had the original sternness, and he began to gradually ease, and in the end, even the corners of his mouth began to twitch, and his face was full of irrepressible ecstasy.

"That's right, I see it this way too, if I didn't look away, this should be a fixed kiln with a pattern of flowers!"

Jin Muchen said with certainty, and at this time, Fang Bo did not get started directly like he had seen other porcelains in the past, but opened the drawer, took out a pair of white gloves and put it on, and carefully picked up the white porcelain bowl.

Then he dragged the magnifying glass of the ring light on the side of the table, turned the brightness to the maximum, and put the bowl under the magnifying glass to examine it carefully.

"Well, the shape of this bowl is very regular......"

Uncle Fang took the bowl and kept turning in circles, and finally directly put the bowl upside down on the table, sure enough, the edge of the bowl was flush with the tabletop upside down, and it was tightly sealed, and Uncle Fang clapped his hands even more when he saw it.

Jin Muchen didn't quite understand, Uncle Fang glanced at him, and then began to explain.

"The gold-loading process was first seen in lacquerware during the Warring States period, and began to be used on Yue kiln celadon in the Tang Dynasty. The gold decoration process is also known as gold edge, silver pin, gold buckle, silver buckle, etc., which generally refers to the use of gold, silver and copper and other metals on the decoration of porcelain. The way of the table is mainly in the bowls, cups, bowls, mouths, and feet, but there are also metal decorations on the lid, pot flow, bottle mouth, box buckle and other parts, the purpose of this decoration is to make the porcelain in the crystal jade greatly show luxury and elegance. ”

As Fang Bo spoke, he gently wiped the edge of the bowl, and soon layers of white powder fell from the mouth of the bowl, obviously the former owner of this bowl, in order to hide the true identity of this bowl, deliberately covered the gold edge of the bowl with some paint.

"The gold decoration process is a fashion in ancient times, and it is a commodity deep processing technology taken to improve the identity of porcelain, reflecting the aesthetic taste of the time and the psychology of people's obsession with gold and silverware, of course, the main purpose is to show the user's status of dignity or show luxury. The gold fixture, also known as "Mangkou gold", "inlay", etc., is mostly supplied to the noble class of the five dynasties and the early Song Dynasty. The Mangkou gold of the fixed kiln belongs to the deep-processed products, which is higher grade than the porcelain of normal firing, because the deformation of the overfiring is very small, and the glaze is flawless after the gold, which is the most noble and beautiful. Some of the early gold fixtures were deliberately used in the mangkou overfiring process, in order to make the utensils deform less and easy to inlay gold and silver buckles, so as to achieve dignity and beauty, and enter the court. The mouth of your bowl is very much in line with the characteristics of the gold binding utensils of that period. ”

In just a few seconds, the white camouflage powder on the mouth of the bowl had all been cleaned up, and the gold porcelain bowl had also revealed its true body.

"It's so beautiful, you look at the craftsmanship of the golden bowl, it's really beautiful!"

At this time, Uncle Fang's expression already seemed to be in a state of deep obsession, Jin Muchen knew that everyone who likes antiques, once they saw a real rarity, they would inevitably have a gaffe, so he didn't interrupt Uncle Fang.

"Look at your bowl, the mouth of the bowl is deformed small, and it is tightly closed on the tabletop, but the overall shape is dignified, the tire is firm and thin, the glaze is warm, the porcelain is very good, the big circle foot, the bottom foot is full of glaze, and there is a glaze on the bowl body, which is commonly known as tear stains, and the most important thing is that the bowl mouth is decorated with gold edges. It should be the utensils of the early Song Dynasty Dingyao Panmangkou overfiring process, just looking at the appearance, it should be the fine porcelain of the same period. ”

Uncle Fang stroked the bowl with a look on his face, as if he was gently stroking his lover.

"Uncle Fang, haven't you seen the ornaments in this bowl?"

"Huh! If you don't tell me, I really forgot, this is a good look. ”

Fang Bo said, pulled the magnifying glass, and began to look into the bowl, just looked at the bottom of the bowl, the bowl body, and the gold edge of the bowl, the pattern inside is still hated before I have time to look at it carefully.

This look is terrible, Fang Bo, who originally looked happy, immediately became strict again after carefully looking at the patterns in the bowl.

"There are eight dragon patterns on the inner wall of the bowl, and there are Tengyun dragon patterns on the bottom of the inner bowl, a total of nine dragon patterns, the painting is exquisite, the lines are clear and delicate, this is not an ordinary product! Mu Chen, you have found a treasure! If I didn't miscalculate, this bowl should be recorded in the "History of Wu Yue Bei", Wu Yue Qian paid tribute to the Song Dynasty in the fifth year of the Taiping Rejuvenation of the Kingdom of 2000 pieces of "gold fixtures" one of the 2000 pieces, at that time this Wu Yue Qian clan's batch of gold fixtures, but it was specially given to the royal family at that time! ”

Uncle Fang's eyes never left the bowl, but at this time, Jin Muchen, who was standing on the side, could not suppress the excitement in his heart, if it weren't for the fact that Uncle Fang was beside him, I am afraid he would have been unable to help but jump up with cheers.

"Uncle Fang, are you sure this is the gold-bound vessel recorded in the History of Wu Yue Bei?"

Uncle Fang put down the bowl and pushed away the magnifying glass lamp in front of him, he had just concentrated on studying for a long time, and it was inevitable that he would be a little tired at this time, after all, he was also in his fifties.

"Can't be wrong, this golden fixture began in the Tang Dynasty, arose in the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms and the Song Dynasty, and later began to decline in the Yuan and Ming dynasties. So there are not many that have been handed down now, and at present, the British Museum has the most surviving, and some of them are in the Palace Museum on Treasure Island. And the reason why I said that your bowl should be the batch of gold fixtures that Wu Yue Qian's tribute was mainly because among the dozen or so gold fixtures in the Palace Museum on Treasure Island, there was a bowl with the same flower and dragon pattern as you, and that bowl was defined as the imperial porcelain paid tribute by Wu Yue Qian's family at that time. ”

When Jin Muchen heard Uncle Fang say this, his heart suddenly became settled.

"Your bowl, if it is taken to China, it is definitely a national treasure, KMT has brought many treasures to the treasure island, including a batch of gold fixtures originally hidden in the Forbidden City. Until 1969, a lot of gold-bound fixed vessels were unearthed in the old kiln pit in Dingxian County, Hebei Province, but the preserved condition of that batch of fixed vessels was not particularly good, and almost all of them were defective products that were unsuccessful in firing the kiln that year, and the quality of your bowl could not be compared at all, and the age was three years earlier than the batch of Wu Yue Qian's tribute. So, if your bowl can be taken to China, it will definitely make up for a gap in the history of domestic porcelain collection! That's why I said he was a national treasure. ”

Jin Muchen couldn't pretend to be calm at this time, and even his voice trembled a little.

"Uncle Fang, how much is this national treasure-level treasure worth?"

"What? Do you want to sell this bowl? ”

Uncle Fang, who was originally a little tired, stared at this time, and came to his senses again.
