Chapter 3 Masters

I turned my head to look, and saw a fat man with a gold chain around his neck walking in, with a half-cut cigar in his mouth, a floral plaid shirt on his upper body, and a pair of tourist shoes on his feet.

I was stunned for a few seconds, and then I reacted, "Dunzi! ”

I haven't seen him for six years, and the pier has changed so much that I almost didn't recognize it. Looking at him like this, it seems that he has made a fortune.

"Brother, you want to kill my brother."

Dunzi was very excited, walked up to me and gave me a deep hug, and then, pulling me aside, "That broken Xiali at the head of the village is yours, right?" ”

"Yes."

Dunzi's eyes suddenly narrowed: "I heard that you are now the big boss of an auction house, and you are very awesome." How did you drive a car that asked for food? ”

Of course, I don't have to say anything about my relationship with Dunzi, but I don't want to tell him the truth now. Dunzi's mouth can't hold the door, as soon as he knows, the neighbors will know, and his parents will also know. Again, I don't want my parents to worry about me.

I glanced at the gold chain around the neck of the pier, it was golden and tempting, but unfortunately it was alloyed. I pinched the chain with my hand, shook it gently, and said with a smile: "People can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes, and they still have to pretend when it's time to pretend." It's just that you like to be high-profile, and I like to be low-key. That's all. ”

"It turned out to be a pretend!"

Dunzi patted his head, nodded his head suddenly, then picked up the gold chain, and said with a smile, "This gold necklace cost 20,000 Hong Kong dollars, and there is no 100,000 yuan in the mainland that you can't get it." If you like it, I'll give it to you. ”

I laughed, "You have a lot of courage to say that brass is gold." ”

Actually, I could tell at a glance that the chain was made of brass, but with a layer of gold plated on it.

The identification method is very simple, try the weight on the hands, and then shake a few times to listen to the sound.

"Awesome!" Dunzi gave me a thumbs up, "It's worthy of being the owner of the auction house...", and then, he lowered his voice, "I brought back a treasure from the south this time, and I was thinking about going to you for the auction. ”

After saying that, Dunzi went home. A few minutes later, he came cautiously with an object covered in red silk in both hands. I lifted the silk cloth and it turned out to be a bowl. The material celadon, exquisite workmanship, there is an obvious crab claw pattern on it, the texture of the glaze opening piece is tied with hair, and the glaze layer is thick, with a jade-like texture.

My heart was beating wildly, this bowl seemed to be something from Song Ruyao. There are very few works handed down from Ru kiln, it is said that there are less than 100 pieces, and if they are, they are priceless treasures.

Dunzi pointed to the bowl and said with a very serious expression: "I have looked at the experts in the province, this is the Ru kiln azure glazed bowl, and if it is auctioned, the starting price will be 30 million." ”

I picked up the bowl with great care, and looked at it carefully, only to see that the bowl was delicate, and the color changed with the light under the reflection of the sun. Its glaze color is like rain and sunny weather, warm and simple, and its glaze is smooth and delicate like jade. The combination of tire and glaze is slightly red, and there are sparse oxygen bubbles under the glaze like morning stars, which gives people a pleasing aesthetic feeling as a whole.

"Dunzi, where did you get this thing?" I was amazed.

Hejude Auction House once auctioned a Yuan Dynasty Baidiqing vase, with a starting price of 5 million, and was finally bought by a local real estate developer surnamed Liu for 8 million. I was very impressed by the unique style of the vase with the vivid pastel figures on it. And that valuable bottle is not worth mentioning at all compared to this bowl.

"Where I got it has to be kept secret for the time being, my Chen Dadun has been working hard in the south for six years all on this bowl. Brother, take it to your auction house as a treasure, take a chance, auction it, it's enough for our brothers to spend in this life..."

As Dunzi spoke, I turned the bowl upside down, my eyes fell on the bottom, and my brow suddenly furrowed. This bowl has Ru kiln "sesame nails" on the feet.

The so-called "sesame nail" means that Ru kiln mostly uses full glaze foot wrapping and nail firing porcelain, the nail mark is small and slightly off, and one end has a tip that resembles the shape of sesame. The nail marks of the genuine Ru kiln are white, and the Song people make the nails with pure porcelain clay raw materials, which contain high alumina, high refractory strength, and the depth of the nail marks is relatively uniform. However, although there are obvious marks of sesame nails at the bottom of this bowl, the color is white and dark, and the porcelain clay raw materials used are not pure.

In a word, this bowl is a fake, a high imitation.

The level of counterfeiting is staggering.

In ancient times, there was almost no environmental pollution, and the soil was pure, but it is difficult to find the soil in ancient times in modern times, and the purity of the white porcelain clay used is not high, so the color is white and dark.

Of course, this detail can be hidden from almost all experts. It's not that I'm discerning, it's because I was mentored by someone when I did my internship in my last year of university.

I told Dunzi about the situation, and after listening to it, his face suddenly turned pale, he was stunned for a while, and spit out a dirty word, "I'll my mother!" ”

"How much did you buy it?"

"One and a half million."

"Don't be upset," I reassured, "it's the most perfect forgery I've ever seen, the superb." The person who made it is definitely a master. It's not genuine, but it's collectible. If you don't want to collect, you can also trade on the black market, as long as you don't meet experts in the Forbidden City, it's not impossible to sell for millions. ”

Dunzi's face soothed, "Brother, get it to your auction house and auction it, if little Ningzhou City can see the flaws, it's you." How much you can shoot depends on your ability. When the time comes, our brothers will add two to five, what do you think? ”

The words of the pier have great temptation, and if the Hejude Auction House is not closed, there is no problem at all with this bowl when the Ru kiln is auctioned. But, first, the auction house is gone, and second, even if the auction house is still there, I will not do such a thing. I've just suffered a big loss, and I can't repeat the mistakes of the past.

I covered the bowl with a silk cloth and handed it to the pier, "You put it away." More on the auction later. ”

After saying goodbye to the pier, I drove back with a broken summer. Along the way, my mind was full of questions, who did the imitation Ru kiln porcelain bowl that Dunzi bought for 1.2 million yuan? The level of this artificial fraud is too high, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is definitely a leader in the contemporary industry.

I can't help but think of the fake that Hejude auction house auctioned.

It is a plump Tang Dynasty blue and white tower-shaped jar, with typical Tang Sancai characteristics, fine white fetal quality, pure glaze. After the thing came to the auction house, after I carefully identified it, I found that the glaze of the Tang jar contained Su Ma Liqing, which immediately surprised me. Historically, the production of blue and white porcelain originated in the Tang Dynasty, and the craftsmanship and production level were far from mature. This Tang jar actually contains Su Ma Liqing, what it means is self-evident.

After the Tang jar was placed on the auction table, it immediately caused a sensation, and after several price increases, it was finally won by a foreigner. Two months after the incident, Hejude Auction House was prosecuted for alleged fraud, and the Tang jar was identified as a fake by a national authority.

Could the blue-and-white tower-shaped jar and the bowl bought by Dunzi for 1.2 million yuan in the Tang Dynasty come from the same person?

After an hour of bumpy ride, the car was back in the city. The Xiali car I bought for 2,000 yuan slowly walked through the bustling city like an old antique, and I felt like a person who asked for food.

As soon as the car drove into the community, it was stopped by four young men with tattoos on their arms. I didn't understand what was going on, I rolled down the window, and just as I was about to ask questions, I saw a bald man walking out of the guard duty room, holding a cigarette between his fingers, a striking scar on his forehead, squinting at me and saying, "Brother-in-law, you have made me wait for a long time." ”

It turned out to be Huang Yijia's younger brother Huang Yong, who did not learn and did not know how to do it, and was foolish in society, and it was said that he had a group of little brothers under him.

I frowned and said angrily, "Wait for me?" Is there something wrong? ”

I don't have a good impression of this brother-in-law, I don't say anything when I ask me for money every once in a while, and when Hejude Auction House is not closed, he often sends people to follow me, saying that a man must find a junior if he is rich, and often gives his sister a bad idea.

"I said brother-in-law, you are really bold now, you dare to beat your wife,"

Huang Yong took a puff of cigarette, and after exhaling a string of smoke rings, he said in a strange tone, "Before this matter is put aside, I may not be too lazy to care." But not now, I, Huang Yong, am also a well-known person on the road now, my sister was bullied, if I stand by and watch, I will be laughed at by my peers on the road, and I will have no face in front of my brothers. So, I have to say..."
