135 Xue Fang
ps: The days are over, two more per day, strongly asking for monthly passes, subscriptions, collections, etc
"Xue Fang, it turned out to be Xue Fang." Liu Sheng pounced without any image, circled around the pastel baby picture plum bottle a few times, took out the magnifying glass he carried with him, and looked up and down carefully.
"Xiaosheng, how's it going? This is what I bought in the antique market, and your Uncle Qiu said that this is an authentic Qianlong official kiln, worth millions? The uncle didn't realize the reason why Liu Sheng's face changed drastically, and praised him proudly there, and also came up with strong evidence.
Uncle Qiu said that he did shoveling land for a while from the early days of reform and opening up to the beginning of 2000, and although the identification is all wild roads, there is still a set, but it seems that he should not know what 'Xue Fang' is, otherwise he would not say that this is true.
"How much did you spend?" Liu Sheng frowned, asked in a low voice, a little unhappy in his heart, although the uncle is a little powerful, but it is just human nature, people are still good, no matter how he is also his own relative.
"Uh, what do you mean?" Uncle is also very slippery in society, listening to Liu Sheng did not evaluate this plum bottle but asked the price, which made him chuckle in his heart, and subconsciously had a bad feeling.
"Uncle, how much did you spend?" Liu Sheng asked again, if it was only one or two thousand, he could buy it, and if it was about one hundred thousand, he would help him think of a way, and lose some money to buy a lesson, and it would not hurt his muscles and bones.
"Ten, one hundred thousand." The old uncle looked at Liu Sheng cautiously and said with some apprehension.
"Alas, uncle, you have to trust me, sell me 10,000 yuan. I can responsibly tell you that this piece of porcelain is a fake. As for what is false. There's some secrecy involved in this that I can't tell you. Liu Sheng nodded, although the value was drawn by one-tenth, this was also for the sake of the uncle's face, if Yang Lao and they were allowed to go out of the horse at most, it would be a few hundred yuan at most, and they would have to give a gag order.
"What, what's fake, Xiaosheng, don't film your uncle." When the uncle heard Liu Sheng say it, his face immediately changed, 100,000 yuan. It's not a small amount, although it won't hurt the muscles and bones, but it hurts, "But, but your Uncle Qiu said it's true." The uncle retorted in a low voice with the psychology of luck, and glanced at Liu Sheng's expression when he was about to leave.
"Uncle Qiu didn't identify it, it's forgivable, this plum bottle is a high imitation, and the number of appraisals in the country is only a palm, and I also saw a lot before I identified it. In my teacher's collection room, there were not a hundred such porcelains, but eighty pieces. Liu Sheng nodded and explained.
"A palm? That" Uncle's eyes lit up instantly. Passing on the loss to others, he immediately had a plan in his heart, and a sly smile appeared on his face.
"Uncle, don't hurt me, if my teacher knows, they won't have to pick my skin, and if you don't get it, you'll have to be expelled from the teacher." Looking at the uncle's expression, he didn't know what attention he had, so he hurriedly stopped him.
"Me"
"Forget it, forget it, uncle, I'm afraid of your old man, okay, I'll cover the loss of your old man for 100,000 yuan." Liu Sheng cried with a sad face and looked like he had been defeated.
He knew that his uncle had really done this kind of thing to pass on the loss, anyway, the dead Dao friend was not dead, he was relaxed and happy, and there was no pressure at all, but Liu Sheng didn't dare to watch the uncle walk on this road, and would rather spend money to buy his peace.
What are the relatives, when he is in trouble, he can't help, at least he can't fall into the ground, he can tell Yang Lao that he will definitely get this plum bottle without spending a penny, but he can't do it, the uncle is his father's own brother, to a certain extent, he is similar to his father, and no one can pit his father.
"Is this really fake?" The uncle looked at Liu Sheng with suspicion in his eyes, completely losing the apprehension just now.
"Why don't you believe me, uncle? Don't you know who I am? Liu Sheng looked at his uncle in surprise, his face full of incredulity.
Money, sometimes it is the diaphragm of family affection, Liu Sheng felt cold in his heart, and resisted the urge to turn around and leave, but he couldn't, if it was another fake, he could completely turn around and leave as if it didn't happen, but this is 'Xue Fang', the 'Xue Fang' that has bankrupted countless people.
"No, no, it's just" The old uncle didn't dare to meet Liu Sheng's burning gaze, and there was a panic in his heart for no reason, and he hurriedly denied it.
"Alas, forget it, uncle, I'll tell you, but you must not tell others to rot this matter in your stomach at least for a short time, otherwise I will not be responsible for what happens." Liu Sheng said with a serious expression.
"Don't worry, I won't say anything to your old woman." Uncle has long been washed by the green and white jade toad leaf brush to arouse the longing for the antique world, even if he is a rookie, it does not prevent him from being a hidden curiosity in the antique circle, Liu Sheng immediately agreed in a hurry.
"Your plum vase is a 'Xue imitation' is one of the culprits of the catastrophe that swept China in the early nineties, and even the world of antiques, he and the" Zhu Fang' together do not know how many old-timers have left the antique circle gloomily, and even ended up depressed, and now the senior player still talks about the two imitations, once it appears, it will definitely suffer a stormy blow, and they have long become the point where everyone shouts and beats the rats on the street." Although Liu Sheng did not experience the Great Depression of porcelain in the early nineties and even in the antique world, it did not prevent him from understanding that time, especially Yang Lao's gaffe at that time.
Liu Sheng said that he didn't expect the big mouth of the uncle to keep secrets, and there was no impermeable wall in the world, and the antique world would generally spread throughout the industry if there was a stir, he just wanted to take this opportunity to break the crisis of trust brought about by money.
"Uncle, do you know how many people went in because of this 'Xue Fang' back then, and how many people committed suicide for 'Xue Fang'? How many old-timers have left because of 'Xue Fang'? 3,000 people entered the bureau because of 'Xue Fang', 300 committed suicide because of 'Xue Fang'; 40 or 50 master appraisers in the industry washed their hands gloomily and never set foot in the antique circle. Moreover, there is still a high-pressure situation against 'Xue Fang' and 'Zhu Fang', and once discovered, they must be handed over, and if anyone dares to sell 'Xue Fang' and 'Zhu Fang' in the face of the world's condemnation, they will face imprisonment for more than three years and less than ten years. Liu Sheng looked at the old man who looked interested in the story, and asked himself a little excitedly.
Liu Sheng had to sound the alarm to his uncle, he was a rookie, and he didn't know what the harm of 'Xue Fang' and 'Zhu Fang' was, and once he touched the red line, he couldn't keep it even if he wanted to. Every senior expert is not bad for money, they all cherish their feathers, who wants their reputation to be destroyed by a piece of porcelain that they don't know what to do, so the pressure on the government in this area is not ordinarily great.
"Can't you really sell that?" Uncle asked cautiously.
"I can't." Liu Sheng said categorically.
Yes, it seems that what I just said is in vain, but my uncle still doesn't give up, is money really that important?
"That uncle, if you are short of money, I can support you with 1.8 million yuan, it is absolutely no problem, you don't need to pay it back when the time comes, don't fight the idea of this plum bottle." Liu Sheng is absolutely strict and guarded, and he must not let the uncle dispose of it with the intention of passing on losses or making a lot of money.
"I'll talk about the money later, I'll talk about it later, can you tell me what 'Xue Fang' and 'Xue Fang' are." The old man diverted the topic a little secretly.
"Ugh." Do your best to listen to the destiny of heaven, only pay more attention to the uncle, don't let him go to that road, you must know that the people who can afford Qianlong pastel are the rich people, if you know that the road itself is deceived, how can a small ordinary person afford to retaliate.
'Xue Fang' is actually not just a person, according to Liu Sheng's understanding it is an organization, an extremely secret, even now can not figure out the pulse of the organization, division of labor and cooperation, clear purpose, with a very tacit understanding, porcelain, color, firing, there are special people in charge, and even in the sales link they have a special person in charge.
It seems to have been active since the Kangxi period, and began to specialize in making antique porcelain, funding some organizations that opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty, and then a young apprentice named Xue Liren appeared among them, whether it was porcelain making or filling in color, they all showed a very high talent, and the imitation of antique porcelain was vivid, so that some of them were eye-catching.
Xue Liren saw that it was profitable, and began to make a large number of fakes, selling them to those high-ranking officials and nobles who were vassals and elegant, and quickly grabbed a lot of money, so that the organizations of the Heaven and Earth Society, the Red Flower Society, the Little Knife Society, and the White Lotus Sect developed rapidly, and he also became a hot figure in the anti-Qing Dynasty and the restoration of the Ming Dynasty.
Some people say that 'Xue Fang' has the figure of the third prince of Zhu, or Zheng Keshuang, or even Wu Sangui, in fact, the first master of 'Xue Fang' came from a craftsman in the orchard, and later with the further consolidation of the rule of the Qing government, they also parted ways with those organizations that opposed the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty for their own selfishness, hiding behind the flashy world and using their own methods to influence the world world.
"And later?" Seeing that Liu Sheng was silent, the uncle suddenly became anxious, and hurriedly asked.
"Later? Uncle, you should think about this plum vase, to be honest, I have to report it, I will give you a day to think about it. Liu Sheng shook his head and left with a complicated mind. (To be continued......)
