Chapter 46 The Antique Trade
The room is not big but not small, it is an ordinary living room, which is very high-end decoration, furniture and facilities are also readily available, but there are only six people in the spacious room and sit on both sides, with a long conference table as the boundary, four on one side, two on the other.
"Xuande furnace? Pull it down! This idea Xuande furnace is also embarrassed to say things, and Beijing Panjiayuan grabbed a lot of goods. ”
The four of them pouted and smiled at a middle-aged man in his forties, looked at the bald young man who stood up with a fierce face, spread his hands, pointed to a delicate small incense burner on the table that was a little dark, but could still be seen to be made of copper, and said: "If this thing is really Xuande furnace, your brother's words are true, but Xuande furnace is a national treasure, you said that you met one, just one?" ”
The middle-aged man is not amazing, but the two mustaches are extremely well-trimmed, but he is dressed like Lu Xiaofeng in the ancient dragon book. His eyes were shining, revealing a shrewdness. Soon he continued:
"Don't say anything else, in the past few years, the so-called Xuande furnace has not been a hundred or seventy or eighty through my hands, but there are not a hundred or eighty of them, which is true or false, it is estimated that there is no one who is true, and the two of you will take out this one now and say that it is true? Are you and I Chen not worried about being fools? ”
"You!"
The bald man's face was anxious again, and he was about to speak but was held down by the middle-aged man who had been sitting on the chair next to him, and pressed the bald man, the middle-aged man smiled on his face, and said to Chen Bu: "What did Brother Chen say, you are an old man in this industry, where do I Yang Ming dare to treat you as a fool, but I am also an old acquaintance with you, and I don't say anything, we have been cooperating for at least nearly ten years, and I Yang Ming's personality must have known a little bit, right?" ”
Hearing Yang Ming's words, Chen Buxian touched the two mustaches on the side of his mouth, "This time the things you brought, except for this Xuande furnace, I didn't pay back a single star and a half, this is already based on our friendship, but Brother Yang, friendship is friendship, this business is still business!" We all know what the Xuande furnace is, even if it's true? Is it possible that anyone still dares to conclude that it is true? ”
Chen Buxian said a big truth, the Xuande furnace was ordered by Emperor Xuande in the Ming Dynasty and personally supervised the stunt incense burner. In Chinese history, it is not uncommon for the emperor to order the casting of vessels, but there are definitely not many who personally supervise the making
Emperor Xuande was extremely obsessed with the incense burner, when he was in power, he almost received the best incense burner in the world into the palace, but unfortunately his vision was too high, and he couldn't look down on the incense burner that had survived, so he supervised the Xuande furnace, as the Xuande furnace personally supervised by the Xuande Emperor, its process was almost not concentrated on the top craftsmanship in China at that time, whether it was from the material or the modeling, it was the top of the world at that time.
And the most important point is that the Xuande furnace is no longer replicable, it is said that there were many craftsmen who made the Xuande furnace back then, but every time the incense burner made could not satisfy the Xuande Emperor, the emperor was not satisfied, it was a big deal, once it was okay, you made me dissatisfied again and again, what did you do with the emperor? At that time, several craftsmen were given death by the emperor, and orders were given to complete the project on time.
As soon as the order to complete the project on time was issued, all the remaining craftsmen were also frightened, and when they saw that the emperor had killed someone, where did they dare to slack off in order to save their lives? The study began that night, but the progress was very unsatisfactory, but by chance, one of the craftsmen mixed silver, gold, and other rare metals into the brass, and finally the building material produced a very amazing effect.
This craftsman cast a small incense burner overnight to present to Emperor Xuande, the emperor was shocked at a glance, only to see that although the incense burner showed the color of brass, the surface was smooth as jade, and the color was superior and introverted.
And this craftsman does have the ability, summoning all the craftsmen to quickly refine the required large amount of materials and casting them into blanks, but soon the craftsman died in an accident, and as for the synthesis type of Xuande furnace materials, the craftsman did not even stay, even the Xuande Emperor was heartbroken.
It is also because of this that the Xuande furnace began to have imitations from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, but because of the difference in materials, no matter how exquisite the craftsmanship is, there is still a huge difference, so it is also from the selection of the year, the real Xuande furnace is very rare, and the folk in order to better imitate the Xuande furnace, it is also exhaustive.
All dynasties and dynasties have extremely realistic imitations, these imitations are the most headache in the cultural relics industry today, because many imitations of the craftsmanship is even more exquisite than the real craftsmanship, and all the styles and skills are exactly the same, so even if you hold a real Xuande furnace, no one will give a 100% answer.
"Then your price of 500,000 is too little, right? You are also a connoisseur in this industry, I believe it can be seen from the pulp and quality of this furnace, even if this furnace is imitated by later generations, it is also a top product. Brother Chen, if you want to lower the price, you won't be so ruthless, right? Taking a deep breath, Yang Ming's face showed a look of displeasure.
Hearing this, Chen Buxian stared at the Xuande furnace in his hand again, and then stretched out three fingers and said: "Okay, don't say that I Chen Buxian is not righteous, I will add another 100,000, 600,000 This stove I want, if you are too little, you can not sell it, I don't care if you find the next home, this thing is a pit, if you find the right person, he can jump down, find the wrong one, and he has no choice but to fill it." ”
"600,000 ......"
Hearing Chen Buxian's offer, Yang Ming's face showed a deep expression, although his face was solemn, he was very happy in his heart. At first, he also thought that the incense burner in his hand was a Xuande furnace, but who wanted to go back and found out that the things unearthed together with the incense burner were all from the Song Dynasty.
Good guy, a Xuande furnace from the Ming Dynasty was dug up in the tomb of the Song Dynasty, isn't this a joke? And after careful observation, he finally distinguished, although the stove in his hand is still similar to the Xuande furnace in terms of shape and details, but his interior is also engraved with a circle of very strange patterns and words, and the base is not signed.
As we all know, the Xuande furnace from the Ming Dynasty appeared as soon as it was the best royal treasure, even if it was given to the minister, it was to be used as a holy object, and that had the courage to do tricks and feet on it?
Although many ancient precious porcelain sometimes have no payment, as the heart of Emperor Xuande, to this day, there is only one Xuande furnace that is recognized as the best workmanship, which is not paid, which undoubtedly makes this thing in front of him even more cheap.
Therefore, the 2.3 million he said was naturally a fictitious one, so Chen Buxian in front of him was already very happy when he reached 500,000, and then he just wanted to raise the price, but he didn't expect it to really rise by 100,000.
Antiques are naturally not more valuable the sooner they are, but to see how rare this thing is. Therefore, even if this incense burner is from the Song Dynasty, it is still not as valuable as the Xuande burner.
It's just that what he didn't know was that at this moment, the room was almost filled with yin qi, and all the yin qi was actually coming out of the small incense burner in front of him.
