Chapter 80: Guilty
Wang Mengxiong didn't know about the conversation behind him, so he took the little girl to get in the car and return to Yiqing Rongbaozhai. When I arrived at my own land, I finally let go of my worries.
"Uncle Liu, come out quickly!"
Liu Yiqing was admiring an ancient painting in the store, and when he heard Wang Mengxiong's voice, he hurriedly walked out.
"Huh? Virtuous nephew, why did you come so early today? Who is this little girl? ”
Wang Mengxiong turned around and asked the little girl to put down the burden gently, but he was afraid that if the jars collided with each other and shattered, even if it was a little bit of porcelain, it would be distressing.
"Uncle Liu, I came out tightly today, and I didn't bring more foreign money with me. Can you put 300 oceans on the mat for me first, and I'll give it back to you later. ”
"That's fine, it's just that what do you want 300 oceans for? Could it be that at a young age, you want to buy yourself a child daughter-in-law? ”
Liu Yiqing saw the timid little girl in the follow-up store, knowing that Wang Mengxiong would not be buying a child daughter-in-law, and deliberately made fun.
"You uncle, you're a bit of a bad learner! I just saw that the little girl was pitiful, and I was going to wrap all the tea leaves. Go back and pay homage to Master, and by the way, leave some good tea for your old man. ”
Liu Yiqing knew that Wang Mengxiong was a typical person who was a big ghost and never did meaningless things. Since he had spoken, he did not hesitate to go back to his inner room, take out three packets of Dayang from the silver cabinet, and hand them to him when he came out.
"Little sister, your tea leaves add up to less than thirty catties. I'll count it as 30 pounds and pay you 300 oceans, I don't know if you want to? ”
When the little girl saw that Wang Mengxiong really wanted to go out of 300 oceans to buy her tea, she had already agreed in her heart. It's just that she also knows that even if her tea leaves are sold at the price of 10 yuan per can, they are overpriced a lot. Now this little brother has to pay several times the price to buy, although he thinks that the children of rich families are too losers, but after all, he can't help it.
"I ...... I only need 100 oceans. If you talk about cans, you can't take advantage of you. ”
Although Liu Yiqing didn't know what kind of good tea was in the little girl's burden, according to the market, buying 300 catties of tea for 300 oceans was indeed a loss-making business, could it be that this tea was made of gold?
Wang Mengxiong was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, and he didn't want Liu Yiqing to see the clue, so he handed over the ocean in his hand and stuffed it into the little girl's hand.
"Since we said that we should buy by the pound, we can't go back on our word. This is 300 oceans, you count and put it away, and these teas, including cans, will belong to me. If you are too burdensome, give me this burden. The money and goods are cleared, and our deal is done! ”
The little girl looked at Liu Yiqing, for fear that what the little brother said would not count, and that the adults of his family would come to the door because of losses in the future, and hoped that this old gentleman would give him an idea.
Liu Yiqing naturally understood what the little girl meant, and when she heard Wang Mengxiong say that she also bought the tea can, she had a guess in her heart, and said with a smile: "Since my virtuous nephew and you have already negotiated the price, you can't go back, otherwise you will lose your reputation." You accept the money, and I will be a witness and make a package ticket. Even if the adults of his family change their minds in the future, they will never let them go to you for trouble. ”
The little girl fell to the ground with a stone in her heart, took the money in hand, bowed to Liu Yiqing, glanced at Wang Mengxiong, and ran out of the store quickly, not even the burden.
Seeing that the little girl ran away, Liu Yiqing hurriedly leaned over and asked what was going on. Wang Mengxiong naturally brought out the little girl's set of rhetoric about selling tea to treat her mother's illness, which made Liu Yiqing sigh.
"Virtuous nephew, hurry up and let me palm my eyes and see what kind of good things are!"
The two of them closed the door of the shop, took out the tea canisters from their burdens and placed them side by side on the table of the Eight Immortals. Although the fragrance of tea is overflowing, the famous tea leaves are piled aside in a mess, just looking at the jars.
"Uncle Liu, I'll test your eyesight, which of these jars is the most valuable?"
Liu Yiqing looked around, tasted them one by one, and finally picked up the jar on the outside with some uncertainty. This jar is about a foot high, more than a foot high, with a plain bottom and a wide circle foot, a straight mouth and a short diameter, a slightly thicker lip, a round belly with sloppy shoulders, gradually increasing below the shoulders, and gradually narrowing to the lower part of the abdomen, and slightly outwardly skimming at the base.
"This jar is blue and white, with four layers of ornamentation, from top to bottom, water ripples, entwined peonies, character themes, and deformed lotus petals, which are ...... Ming blue and white porcelain jar! ”
The current antique industry does not know much about Yuan blue and white porcelain, and many people even think that Jingdezhen did not fire blue and white porcelain during the Yuan Dynasty. Many later generations were identified as Yuan blue and white porcelain, and most of them were mistaken for Ming blue and white at this time. After all, porcelain was flourishing in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and as for those Mongolian people, Ru Mao was used to drinking blood, where did they know what blue and white porcelain was.
"Virtuous nephew, although this Ming blue and white is not a rare thing, but it is still less than 300 oceans, this is a big leak! In my opinion, it's worth adding a zero to the end. ”
Although Wang Mengxiong felt that Liu Yiqing did not recognize the true value of this Guiguzi Xiashan porcelain jar, he could conclude that this was Ming Qinghua, and it could be regarded as a vision. However, listening to his tone, he seemed to think that he was giving less, and couldn't help but defend: "Uncle Liu, 300 yuan of ocean is enough for her to treat her mother's illness, and maybe there is still half of it left to supplement the family." If I really give her 3,000 yuan, and their widows and weak daughters suddenly have a lot of money, don't you hear that the husband is not guilty, and she is guilty? ”
Liu Yiqing was moved by the little girl's experience, and felt that Wang Mengxiong's omission was a little inauthentic. Just listening to him say this, I suddenly felt that if I really handed over the heavy money to the little girl who sold tea as I wanted, I was afraid that within three days, someone would kill her, and both people and money would be lost.
"What the virtuous nephew said is that I can't think about it!"
At the Japanese Embassy in Beijing, the new counselor, Ichiro Kawatani, looked a little depressed when he came back from outside. A colleague with a good deed asked the entourage who went out with him, and only then did he know that he had missed a piece of Yuan blue and white porcelain.
"Hegu-kun, it's just a piece of porcelain, and it's not a precious thing. What's more, I heard that there are only blue and white in the Ming and Qing dynasties in the Chinese porcelain collection world, and the so-called Yuan blue and white are all fakes. For the sake of a fake, why so! ”
Ichiro Kawatani picked up a full glass of sake and drank it all, then raised his eyes to look at his colleague who was comforting him. "Xiaolin-kun, you are not a fellow person, you won't understand. My father was invited to visit the Austro-Hungarian Empire and was invited to see the more than 100 pieces of blue and white porcelain in the palace's collection, and the shape of the objects he depicted was similar to the blue and white porcelain jars that are faintly seen today. According to his old man's research, Yuan Qinghua does exist, but it is not known to the world! ”
Kobayashi-kun was only relieved to this colleague, knowing that his father's diplomatic relations were very deep and he had close contacts with the Kansai chaebol, otherwise he would not be able to get the United States difference as a counselor of the embassy in Huaxia. However, you, an outsider of the Yamato nation, are afraid that you will be a little more angry when you judge the history of the antiques of the Huaxia Kingdom based on only one side.
Thinking of this, Kobayashi-kun stopped talking about this topic, and instead talked about his encounter in Bada Hutong, which finally aroused the interest of Ichiro Kawatani. While drinking sake, the two of them clapped their hands and sang the folk songs of the Japanese clan, and discussed the time to go to the kiln together.
