Chapter 822: The Birthday Star and Magu

At this moment, in this antique stall in front of Tang Yun, all kinds of ancient coins, porcelain, jade, calligraphy and paintings, etc., were neatly placed on a thick dark blue cloth.

The area of this thick cloth is neither large nor small, about 1.4 centimeters long and about 1.2 centimeters wide.

The stall owner is a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed plainly, with an honest and honest face, who looks like an authentic farmer, if you don't pay attention to the jade bracelet on his wrist.

"Boss, can I pick up these porcelains and take a look?"

After watching for a while, Tang Yun stretched out his hand and pointed to a few pieces of porcelain on the stall, raised his head and looked at the stall owner and asked.

The stall owner was very talkative, first glanced up at Tang Yun, and then said with a smile: "Yes, this little brother, please look at it casually! If there is any treasure you like, just tell me, and I will give you a discount when the time comes." ”

As the owner of several antique shops, Tang Yun is naturally very clear about the antique industry.

Don't look at the stall owner's tone of voice is very polite, and he also said that he wants to give himself a discount, but Tang Yun knows very well in his heart that there is no so-called clear price in the antique industry, and there is no limit to the highest price and the lowest price.

No matter what kind of antique it is, and whether the antique is real or fake, the price of the antique is determined by the owner of the antique.

For example, a modern imitation that is actually worth only one or two hundred yuan, the owner of the antique can sell it as genuine, and the price of the sale will be at least several times higher at that time, so the discount is not discounted, and it is just a nice word, and the money you will have to pay at that time is not many times more than what you actually have to pay.

Moreover, when you buy this imitation, you can't go back and ask for a return, because there is no such thing as real or fake in the antique industry, everything depends on your own eyesight.

If you buy a modern imitation, you can only blame yourself for not having enough eyesight, or "the enemy is too cunning", in short, you can't blame others.

Although Tang Yun knew that the stall owner's smile was not sincere, he still smiled and thanked him: "Okay, then I will thank the boss first." ”

After speaking, Tang Yun was not polite, and directly picked up one from the stall, which should be said to be a pair of exquisite pastel figure statues.

The size and height of this pair of pastel figures are about 50 cm and 46 cm, respectively.

Tang Yun only glanced at it and saw the origin of the two figures carved in this pair of pastel porcelain, both of whom were not real people, but mythical figures from Chinese legends, and both were from Taoism.

The first is the mythical god of longevity, known as the "Old Man of the South Pole Star".

Shou Xing is a god in Taoism, one of the three stars of Fu Lu Shou, the ancients took the word "Shou Xing" as a symbol of longevity of the elderly, often set off with deer, crane and peach and so on, symbolizing longevity.

Folks believe that worshipping this longevity immortal can make people healthy and long-lived, and it is also a belief in Taoism to pursue longevity.

As for the other, it is Magu who is known as "Shouxian Niangniang" and "Void Silence Chong Zhenren".

Magu is the goddess of Chinese folk belief and belongs to Taoist figures.

According to the record of "The Legend of the Immortals", Magu is a female Taoist immortal, cultivating in the southeast mountain of Muzhou, during the Eastern Han Dynasty of China, Magu should be summoned by the immortal Wang Fangping, descended to Cai Jingjia, eighteen or nineteen years old, beautiful, self-proclaimed "has seen the East China Sea three times into mulberry field", so in ancient times Magu was a metaphor for longevity.

There is also a story about the birthday of the Queen Mother of the West on March 3, Magu was on the side of the Jiangzhu River and celebrated her birthday with Ganoderma lucidum.

In the past, Chinese folk, whenever a woman celebrated her birthday, she often gave a portrait of her birthday star Magu, named Magu for her birthday.

Obviously, the pair of pastel figures in front of me have the meaning of birthday celebrations.

Tang Yun observed carefully for a while, and this pair of pastel-colored figure statues seemed to be themed on the two longevity immortals, Shouxing and Magu, going to Yaochi to offer their birthdays.

Magu rides on the back of the deer, holding the fruit plate with both hands, and all kinds of fruits are placed in the plate, at the same time, Magu is also dressed in a neon fairy dress, fluttering silk on the side, the deer stands on the colorful auspicious clouds, and the mouth of the deer holds the Ganoderma lucidum.

It seems to be the same as the legend, Magu is on the bank of the Jiangzhu River, with fairy grass to settle the house, with the picked mountain cliff Ganoderma lucidum wine, on March 3 every year for the Queen Mother of the West birthday.

The birthday star, known as the "Old Man of the South Pole Star", is on top of the crane and holds a dragon head staff in his left hand. The right hand pointed to the sky from afar, as if the Yao Pond was approaching.

Similarly, the birthday star is also dressed in fairy clothes, and at the same time there is a boy holding a peach branch under his knees, and the crane is the same as the deer, standing on the colorful auspicious clouds.

"That's good...... the more Tang Yun looked, the more appreciation emanated from his eyes.

This pair of pastel birthday stars and Magu statues are indeed more exquisitely made, and at the same time have the meaning of birthday celebrations, whether they are used as a collection or given as a gift, they are very good choices.

However, just in case, Tang Yun still turned on the ability to see-through.

Although he has some research on porcelain, so far he has not reached the level of an expert.

Therefore, even if he is quite sure in his heart that the pastel figures will be genuine, there is still a possibility of a mistake in judgment if he does not actually "confirm" it.

Perspective......

After counting the corresponding time of the aperture, Tang Yun slowly withdrew his gaze.

That's right, this pair of pastel-colored statues of Shouxing and Magu are indeed genuine porcelain from the Qing Dynasty.

Although in terms of value, it may not be very high, but it still has a certain collection value, and more importantly, Tang Yun is very fond of antiques with the meaning of "birthday celebration".

It seems to be a good choice to take this pair of pastel birthday and Magu statues home for the two elderly people at home to admire and play with.

After deciding, Tang Yun did not hesitate, opened his mouth directly, and asked the stall owner: "Boss, how do you sell this pair of pastel porcelain from the Qing Dynasty?"

Hearing Tang Yun's question, the stall owner was visibly stunned.

The meaning of Tang Yun's words just now can be said to be very clear.

"Pastel porcelain of the Qing Dynasty" directly indicates the type and age of this pair of porcelain, not only pastel porcelain, but also from the Qing Dynasty.

The stall frowned slightly, he obviously didn't expect that the young man in front of him, who looked to be only about twenty years old, turned out to be an expert!

The other party said it so clearly, if he hid it at this time, I am afraid that the business that is about to arrive may run elsewhere. (https:)
