Chapter 559
Gu Ming's arrival didn't attract anyone's attention, everyone was busy with their own things with their heads down, and there was a woman with a rather plump figure who just picked what she wanted and went to the counter to ask for the price. [.Lots of good]
Behind the counter was a man who looked to be about twenty-eight or nine, with a very ordinary face, completely of the kind that would never be found again if he was thrown into the crowd.
Gu Ming took a general look at the situation inside, and found that the things in this room were quite good, not only were they clearly classified, but the quality was still good at first glance.
Why does it look good at first glance?
The reason is very simple, not all the things in this room are genuine, just take a small jade ornament closest to Gu Ming, Gu Ming did not touch it at this time, but judging from the carving process of this ornament, she saw something wrong.
The jade ornament in front of her is a unique style of the Ming Dynasty in terms of shape, but there is a small problem with the pattern carving at the bottom of the ornament when carving. It is estimated that most of the people who imitated the carving confused the carving techniques of the Ming Dynasty and the Qing Dynasty, and added the unique carving knife work of the Qing Dynasty to the jade ornaments in the style of the Ming Dynasty, making this thing look a little nondescript.
Of course, it will look a little nondescript in Gu Ming's eyes, this is entirely because Gu Ming can clearly distinguish the carving of jade products of different ages, and it is not impossible to be deceived if you look at someone who is not very solid in this basic knowledge in this area.
Just when Gu Ming was evaluating the jade ornaments in his heart, a person next to him walked over, as if he hadn't noticed Gu Ming, and walked straight over to pick up the jade ornaments. and also blocked Gu Ming's sight intentionally or unintentionally.
Gu Ming raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw this, although the rule of the antique shop is that the person in the back can't grab it before the person in front has finished reading it, but this kind of "grabbing" situation is not really absent, just like Gu Ming's current situation, she is just standing next to the thing. The marshmallow didn't reach out and touched it, nor did he make any special gestures, even if he was robbed. It's hard to say who is right and who is wrong.
However, Gu Ming had already seen that there was something wrong with the jade ornament, and in line with the principle that more things are better than less, he didn't bother to worry more about the other party. Instead, go in the other direction.
The same. She wasn't interested in alerting anyone that there was something wrong with the jade ornament.
After a casual look, the things in this room did not attract Gu Ming, so she didn't stay here for long, turned around and walked out of the room.
After leaving this room, Gu Ming did not immediately move towards the next place, but stood at the door and listened. When she walked into the courtyard just now, she heard a sound coming from one place that seemed to be louder than other places, in line with the nature of Chinese people who like to go to places with a lot of people, Gu Ming picked up her feet and walked over after distinguishing the direction in which the sound came from.
The louder room is the main house of this courtyard. There was also a thick curtain hanging at the door, Gu Ming opened the curtain and walked in, and immediately felt a burst of coolness, this room with air conditioning on was much more comfortable than outside. It's a pity that maybe because there are a lot of people in the house, the air inside is obviously not as good as outside.
Thankfully. The people inside are still more conscious, and no one smokes inside.
"The next thing, please see for yourself, the reserve price is 5000." In the middle of the room, a sweet-looking woman placed a black object on a high table for the people around her to see.
After she put her things away, she stood aside with a smile on her face, without the slightest intention of explaining, and the people around her did not ask out loud, those who were interested in the thing stepped forward to observe, and those who were not interested stood still.
Gu Ming stood by and watched for a while, and after seeing those who were interested in the things on the high table, he came forward to observe them and started bidding, and it didn't take long for the things to be bought by a dark-skinned man at a price of 8,500.
It can be seen that this is actually a small auction, but no one in this auction is responsible for explaining the situation of the auction items, and no one can guarantee the authenticity of the thing, and it is entirely up to you whether to buy or not.
Something that opens the door at a glance is naturally popular, but no one will rush to ask for something that hangs when you look at it, and it is not impossible that no one will care about it in the end.
Just when Gu Ming was shaking his mind, another thing was bought.
It is a shell carving ornament that was bought, although the material is not particularly precious, but the craftsmanship of its production is still quite desirable, and it is a beautiful thing to buy and collect for those who are interested in this area.
"The next thing, the reserve price is 2,000 yuan." The sweet-looking woman took out a dirty, round object with a lot of rust on the surface, and said to the people around her.
As soon as the people next to him saw the things come out, several of them showed unhappy looks.
One of the men, who was a little short and stocky, squinted his eyes and said, "Xiao Liu, why did you take this out again?" How many times has this thing been photographed here, and the price has dropped again and again, but no one has bought it, so I don't think you should take it out. It's rare for everyone to come once, so don't waste your time! ”
"That's it, this small auction is only held once a month, and there are only a few things at a time, and you take out the things that can't be photographed every time, shouldn't you be unable to find good things, so just use this to make up the numbers?" The tall and thin man next to the short and fat man also chimed in.
"It's impossible to charge anything, it's not the first time you've come to us, we know the rules here, the seller is willing to take it here to shoot, we can only follow the rules, whether you can shoot it or not, we have a hand fee." The sweet beauty called Xiao Liu replied with a smile.
It's not that the short and fat man doesn't know this rule, but he is a little unhappy when he sees something that doesn't match his heart, and after listening to Xiao Liu's explanation, he didn't make any more trouble, and muttered a few words in his mouth without saying anything.
Xiao Liu saw that the short and fat man and the tall and thin man did not speak, the smile on his face became sweeter and sweeter, and he repeated again that those who were interested in this thing stepped forward to observe, and if no one was interested, he would directly start shooting the next thing.
Most of the people in the room were silent, apparently not interested in the orb anymore.
"If everyone is not interested, then ......" Xiao Liu did not have any disappointed expression on his face in the face of such a situation, and still maintained this smile.
"Wait a minute." Gu Ming, who had been silent, took a few steps forward and came to the side of the high table.
Xiao Liu's eyes lit up, and he looked at Gu Ming quietly, retracted what he hadn't said, and signaled that Gu Ming could observe at will.
The reason why Gu Ming was able to speak was not because she felt that there was anything special about the ball on the high table, after all, the ability of her left hand was to really touch the thing before she could judge the authenticity of the thing, and now at such a distance, the ability of her left hand was completely useless.
She'd speak up at this time, but out of curiosity.
With a feeling that she couldn't even put it into words, that she wasn't interested in anyone else, and that she had seen it many times before she had ever made it, she had a desire to find out.
This is actually a kind of curiosity, after all, if it weren't for the owner of the thing believing that the thing was really valuable, he wouldn't have been willing to pay a fee and put the thing up for auction here.
When she looked at it from a distance, Gu Ming felt that there was nothing special about the round object on the high table, but now that she walked in and looked at it, judging from the appearance, it didn't make her feel anything.
This spherical object full of rust on the surface is not large, and the diameter of the visual inspection will definitely not exceed 5cm, but judging from the slightly greenish rust color, this round ball should be copper.
In the place that was not covered by rust, some ancient ornaments were faintly revealed, but unfortunately this ball was rusted a little, and obviously it was not well preserved, and the ornaments on it could only be seen for one or two minutes, and for a while I really couldn't see what age those ornaments were, and what was the significance.
You know, bronze, bronze and other things are the easiest to be imitated, but also one of the tomb robbers' favorite things to steal, except for some big things that are not carried, most of the copper products are relatively strong, the ability to resist falling and hitting is not ordinary, not afraid of a careless effort to go to the ground in vain.
The value of things like porcelain is very high, and many people like it, but the kind of work of robbing tombs is risky, and any slightest disturbance will attract the attention of people on the ground. The porcelain is too delicate, and when it is transported out, it is completely in vain, so the real tomb robbers, generally speaking, do not like to take porcelain, most of them tend to take the kind of things that are more convenient to carry and will not be easy to be bumped into.
Because there are too many fakes of bronze, connoisseurs in addition to looking at the traces of things to see whether there is a fake, for the shape of the thing is also very important, a thing that does not meet the level of the time or something different from the shape of the public, no matter how real it looks, the possibility of being a fake is very high.
The spherical object in front of me is like this, a featureless round ball, although it looks like copper, rust or something, but because it is too common, people can't see any value, so it has been left here like this.
