Chapter 053: Master's Appreciation

"Young man, I can see that you have good eyesight, so please show it, if you think these two pieces of porcelain are not bad, then give a price." The old man smiled unhurriedly.

"You've won a prize." Yi Yang shook his head lightly and said, "Don't worry, I'll take a look first." ”

"Please." The old man solemnly made a gesture of please, and asked a very young descendant to appraise his two exquisite porcelain, not only did he not have the slightest opinion, but paid special attention to it, as if he had decided from the beginning that he knew that Yiyang people could not be good-looking, he was a young man with good vision, and he could make people feel at ease with his palms.

At that moment, Yi Yang cheered up and looked at the two tall cups with full attention, the two small wine glasses should be a pair, from the shape to the glaze, they are exactly the same, in Yi Yang's opinion, the two cups are blue and white glaze, and the glaze color of the two bucket color jars identified by Boss Guo the night before yesterday is almost the same, bright and eye-catching.

Due to his extremely limited knowledge of the identification of ancient porcelain, Yi Yang could not start from the shape of the porcelain, the characteristics of the glaze and decoration, and he could only rely on the ability of his right eye now.

Fortunately, he sensed the aura emanating from the two pieces of porcelain at the beginning, so he could basically make a judgment, only that the porcelain was genuine, it should be genuine Doucai porcelain, at least it was an antique that was a certain number of years, otherwise it would not exude a more obvious aura, and the key was that the gold thread hidden in his right eye had an abnormal reaction.

"Let's see what the problem is." Since he couldn't start from other aspects, Yi Yang had no choice but to use a killer move, so he immediately condensed his spirit and secretly drove the golden thread in his right eye, and as soon as the golden thread came out, the golden light spread out, and soon enveloped one of the cups.

After some careful observation, it didn't take long for Yi Yang to discover the flaw.

It turned out that one of the goblets had the same problem as the "Gu Bao Zhai" and "Treasure of the Town Hall", the three-legged piece of the Northern Song Dynasty official kiln, and there were flaws in the bottom foot, which must have been broken and followed.

After seeing it clearly, Yi Yang unconsciously took back the golden thread and did not make the next move.

When Yi Yang was seriously inspecting the two pieces of porcelain, Uncle Hao and Bai Wenchao, who had been picking up things as if nothing had happened, both turned their heads now, and the two of them looked at this scene as if they were curious, and their eyes were thoughtful.

After retracting his gaze, Yi Yang approached the two small cups again, from the edge of the cup to the bottom of the cup, he felt it with all his heart, and the final result made him secretly surprised: "So that's the case!" I know! ”

He suddenly became bright, and suddenly showed a confident look.

"How's it going, young man?"

Seeing that Yi Yang suddenly raised his head slowly, the old man who had been observing him carefully beside him just now asked with a smile.

Yi Yang replied calmly: "Uncle, can I take the liberty of asking?" ”

He didn't answer the question, and the old man nodded without hesitation and said: "Of course it's okay, if you have any questions, just say it directly, it's okay, business is not benevolent, it's not bad for everyone to make friends, isn't it?" ”

"Uncle, you're right." Yi Yang hurriedly nodded in agreement, "I just want to ask, have these two pieces of porcelain you brought never passed through other people's hands?" ”

Hearing his question, the old man's face changed slightly, and he shook his head and said, "No." Young man, why do you ask? It's my family heirloom, do you see what's wrong? If you really see something, then please speak up, don't hide it, this is what you are helping me. ”

He seemed very sincere in his words, Yi Yang seemed to hesitate, and after hesitating for a moment, he said: "Uncle, I won't tell you, the two pieces of porcelain brought here are very beautiful and in good condition, I like them very much, but there is a problem with one of them." ”

"Questions?!" The look of surprise on the old man's face suddenly became even stronger, and he asked, "What is the problem?" ”

At this moment, even Uncle Hao and Bai Wenchao, who were quietly standing behind them, looked at each other, and it was difficult to hide their surprised looks.

Yi Yang paused and pointed to the piece of porcelain that was missing, and said seriously: "The problem is this cup, if I am not mistaken, the porcelain body is right, but the height of the lower bearing is wrong." ”

"What's wrong with the law?" The old man asked eagerly.

Yi Yang sighed and said: "Uncle, it's a pity, but I have to tell you that your porcelain can only be said to be a residual porcelain, not a complete porcelain, because the bottom is new, it was glued later, I have seen a lot of new porcelain sticking to the old bottom of porcelain, but it is rare to see a case like yours, yours is the old porcelain sticking to the new bottom, but the situation is logically better." ”

"Really?! Are you sure?! The old man looked at Yi Yang with a solemn expression and asked.

Yi Yang nodded vigorously and replied unequivocally: "Well, I'm sure, if you don't believe that you can take a good look with a magnifying glass, there are obvious defects on it, although it can't be seen with the naked eye, but it's still easy to use a magnifying glass." ”

As he spoke, he took out the delicate magnifying glass he carried with him from his pocket and handed it to the old man, but the old man shook his hand and said, "Young man, thank you, but I don't need to look at it, you said that if there is a problem, it should be right." According to you, this damaged piece of porcelain is not worth much, but what about the other one? ”

"Congratulations, the other one is in good condition, perfect, it should be a valuable genuine doucai porcelain, and the model brought by the bottom foot is from the Ming Dynasty, right?" Yi Yang said with certainty.

"Exactly!" The old man said with a happy face, "Then I can rest assured!" Finally one thing didn't disappoint me! How much do you give this intact Doucai Cup? Make an offer. ”

He was very happy, but Yi Yang fell into contemplation for a moment, asking him to make an offer, he couldn't grasp this thing at all, what he could do was so far, the rest was really ignorant.

For the old man's exquisite doucai cup, of course he can't talk nonsense, open their antique shop and suffer a loss, how embarrassed to open too low, I'm afraid there will be jokes.

Yi Yang only knows that Chenghua Doucai is world-famous, if it is an authentic product, the price is often millions, and tens of millions are very possible.

"This small bucket won't be worth tens of millions, right?!" Yi Yang thought in shock.

He was pondering over and over again, and when he couldn't decide, suddenly, a figure jumped in front of the store.

"Uncle Hao, Xiao Chaoβ€”" Someone shouted.

It was a girl's voice calling Bai Wenchao, and it was very familiar, and Yi Yang heard it at once.

"It's Zhu Yeqing?!" Yi Yang was secretly surprised, and immediately he involuntarily turned his head to look, and sure enough, what caught his eyes was a young girl full of youth, the girl was pure and beautiful, who was Zhu Yeqing who was not the archaeological team.

At that moment, Zhu Yeqing's gaze also swept over him, and the two met their eyes.

Zhu Yeqing smiled and said in surprise: "Yi Yang, it turns out that you are also here?!" What a coincidence! ”

"Yes, I ......" Yi Yang straightened up and nodded politely to Zhu Yeqing.

But he was stunned before he finished speaking, because he found that Zhu Yeqing was staring at the mysterious old man sitting beside him with reverence on his face at this time.

"Mu Lao, have you come back from Hong Kong?! What a good day today, why did you come to 'Gu Bao Zhai', that's great! Zhu Yeqing said with surprise and joy.

"What?!" Hearing this, Yi Yang's surprise was not small, the name "Mu Lao" sounded familiar, and in an instant, he remembered it.

At this moment, the old man was also looking at Zhu Yeqing in amazement, and soon, he raised his head and laughed.

Uncle Hao and Bai Wenchao, who were quietly staying on the side, also laughed, both looking relieved.

"Mu Lao, it turned out to be you?!" Yi Yang's face showed humility, and he said to the old man, "Forgive me for being clumsy, I didn't recognize you as old, and I was disrespectful!" ”

Mu Lao hurriedly shook his head, walked up and patted Yi Yang's shoulder, and said, "No, you have a good eye!" You haven't seen me before, how can you recognize me? I didn't greet you beforehand, and I deliberately asked you to identify things, so don't blame me. ”

"How can I blame you?" Yi Yang shook his head and said, "I got an axe in front of you just now, I'm ashamed!" ”

The old man in front of him turned out to be Mu Lao in Bai Wenchao's mouth, that is, the big shopkeeper of "Gu Bao Zhai", where did Yi Yang think that Mu Lao would pretend to be a customer to come to their store to play like this, he only then understood why Uncle Hao and Bai Wenchao were weird, and dared to love them and Mu Lao in advance, and they were acting together.

If it hadn't been broken by Zhu Yeqing, who happened to be in a hurry, then Yi Yang would still be kept in the dark.

Therefore, Zhu Yeqing came at a very good time, which can be regarded as saving the scene, otherwise he will be very difficult to deal with later, because valuing porcelain is a difficult problem for him.

Yi Yang knew that this was Mu Lao testing him, it was an interview, but he didn't know what the result would be, but looking at the other party's reaction, he seemed to be very optimistic about his eyesight.

"Xiao Yi, you are humble." Mu Lao shook his head and said solemnly, "It's very rare for a young man to reach your level!" Your appraisal just now is not wrong, you judged the two pieces of porcelain correctly, one of them is indeed problematic, the sole foot is broken and gone, and you can only use the new tall feet to make up for it for the time being. And the other one is indeed a genuine Doucai chicken bowl cup, to tell you the truth, it is one of my favorite collections in my family, a few years ago from a foreign auction company auctioned, it cost me tens of millions! ”

"Tens of millions?!" Hearing what Mu Lao said, Yi Yang couldn't help but tremble, it was the first time he had seen such a valuable antique, it seemed that the antique shop had a lot of treasures, and there were many more treasures than he imagined, but he had just arrived, and he hadn't seen it yet, and he was in a hurry and looked forward to it infinitely.

"Xiao Yi, you are welcome to come to our 'Gu Bao Zhai' to do things." Mu Lao said with a smile, "Work hard, I believe that with your joining, we will do better and better." ”

"Well, I will!" Yi Yang solemnly agreed.

"When we first met, there was nothing to give." Mu Lao later took out a blue-covered thread-bound book from the package he brought, and handed it to Yi Yang.

It was a thin book, and on the cover fell two dragons and phoenixes dancing into the wood, called "Baojian".

Although Yi Yang didn't know what kind of book this was, he could guess the general content of the book as soon as he looked at the word "Baojian", which was probably related to identification, and this was exactly what he needed.

Therefore, he was overjoyed at that moment when he had received the most precious treasure.
