Chapter 1 Heirlooms

Next Chapter

Li Xiang woke up from the darkness, but when he opened his eyes, he realized that something seemed wrong! This is no longer the CCTV treasure hunt into the salt capital program site, there is no treasure master, there are not many treasure holders, and there is no host and camera. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It's quiet, it seems to be an antique bedroom, Li Xiang has only seen this kind of house in the TV and film and television tourism area, and the furniture in the house does not seem to be imitation, but made of real precious wood.

Li Xiang looked at himself again, and he was almost not startled, because what he was wearing turned out to be the clothes of the ancients! Li Xiang is a little confused! What the hell is this place? Could it be the filming site of a costume TV series? Or maybe it's a treasure hunt, right?

Li Xiang began to recall, he remembered that he seemed to have taken a blue-glazed string pattern cap bottle from the official kiln of the Southern Song Dynasty from his home to the treasure hunt show to find an expert to identify it, it was the only antique in his family, and he didn't know if it was true.

On the one hand, he wanted to find out if the thing was real and how much it was worth. Another is that he has never been on TV, as a young man working in a concrete company, Li Xiang can neither afford a house nor a car, and his family has been poor farmers for generations, so he has not found a partner at the age of twenty-eight, and he is still single.

Li Xiang specifically checked on the Internet, the porcelain of the Song Dynasty has been very good in recent years, especially the official kiln porcelain of the Song Dynasty, in terms of artistic achievements is not inferior to the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty, the price is also frighteningly high, in 2015, China Guardian Spring Auction, a Southern Song Dynasty official glaze piercing ear Zun was sold at a price of 10 million Hong Kong dollars. At the upcoming 2016 Spring Auction auction in Beijing, there will also be two pieces of porcelain from the official kiln that have returned from overseas, both typical of the official kilns of the Southern Song Dynasty, and the price is said to be higher.

So as soon as he heard that the CCTV treasure hunt program entered the salt capital, Li Xiang couldn't wait to convince his parents that if the antique at home that was said to be the Song Dynasty was a real heirloom, then it would really be sent! According to market estimates, their family heirlooms are worth five million at least!

Because the official kiln porcelain of the Song Dynasty is one of the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty, the official kiln is a place for the royal firing of high-grade porcelain, accounting for only a very small number of porcelain, generally speaking, they are all high-quality products, because of the superb firing skills and artistic level, so the value is amazing. It can be said that there are very few genuine porcelain in the official kilns of the Southern Song Dynasty, and most of the genuine products are collected in the Forbidden City and overseas museums.

Of course, Li Xiang didn't have much hope, after all, his family is a farmer for generations, and that thing is probably an imitation bought by his grandfather, maybe a little older, I can't figure it out.

Although Li Xiang's parents were a little unhappy, after all, that thing was handed down from their ancestors, wouldn't it be a loser if they sold it? But they also know that their sons, because of poor family conditions, have not found a partner at the age of 28, and the old couple is also very anxious. As long as you hear that there is no room, most of them are not even willing to meet.

The old couple has been plowing that bit of land at home, and they can't earn much money at all, let alone buy hundreds of thousands of houses for their son, although Li Xiang has worked for several years, the salary in Yandu is generally low, and more than 3,000 is considered high, but if you want to save money to buy a house, it is also unthinkable.

Li Xiang's parents agreed, after all, they have always felt guilty in their hearts, many people have bought houses for their children, but they have neither the mind to do business, nor have they gone out to work, and they don't dare to think about buying a house at all. If the thing at home can really be like what his son said, not to mention selling for millions, but for hundreds of thousands, to buy a suite, it will be much easier for the son to find a partner.

Li Xiang carefully took the heirloom and walked into the audition site. This time, "Into Sichuan? On the first day of the audition of the large-scale folk collection treasure appreciation activity, nearly 1,000 collectors came to the audition site with their treasures, and a long queue was formed in the designated area at 8 o'clock in the morning.

Li Xiang still remembers that the audition site was full of voices and crowds. Many people brought their own treasures, or shoulders, or hands, or dragged suitcases, to the scene to get close to the experts, and exchange treasures. Of course, more people want to take this opportunity to let experts appreciate treasures for free, but most people's treasures are imitations, after all, how many things can be found in the antique market? After all, it is a very small minority.

The audition is divided into 5 groups, including porcelain group, calligraphy and painting group, jewelry group, miscellaneous group, bronze group, etc., after screening, the fine collection will be selected to enter the re-selection link after a week and can participate in the official recording of the program, and one piece will be selected from many collections as the "most historical and cultural value collection" in Yandu.

Li Xiang hugged the heirloom and came to the porcelain group, and after waiting in line for a long time, it was finally his turn to play. Unexpectedly, his heirloom was identified as genuine by the experts on the scene, which was a sensation at the time, after all, this is the official kiln porcelain of the Southern Song Dynasty! Rare in the world!

Li Xiang doesn't know about antiques, but he believes that experts won't look away. So for the next few days, he was carefully guarding the family heirloom, and his parents were also shocked, and the expert estimate was not less than two million, of course, it was finally confirmed by the country's famous porcelain experts when the show was officially recorded.

Li Xiang remembers very clearly that at the scene of the recording of the show, there were not many audiences, that is, one or two hundred people, and then there were four experts, and when it was Li Xiang's turn, he carefully held the heirloom and came to the experts.

"The official kiln of the Southern Song Dynasty, the glaze is very thick, so there is a saying that the glaze is thick and thin, and your collection is a kind of ice cracked eel blood pattern, which is an excellent work of the official kiln of the Southern Song Dynasty! The so-called ice cracks, like rock sugar mica, we look at this collection, the glaze is actually a defect, it is the improper processing of the process in the production process, the expansion coefficient of the tire glaze is too large, so that the glaze cracks, but our ancestors skillfully use this defective beauty, as a special means to decorate the enamel, so that the glaze texture through the adjustment of the process, control the size and density of the cracks, the formation of a broken road, criss-crossed, extremely irregular and in the rules. Therefore, this collection can be said to be extremely rare, and according to the market situation, it must be worth at least five million! The expert's words seemed to echo clearly in Li Xiang's ears.

Li Xiang remembered that he was too excited at that time, and when he left with the heirloom, he accidentally kicked the steps, and then a strange scene happened, the heirloom fell at Li Xiang's feet and turned into countless pieces, and Li Xiang's consciousness also fell into darkness!
