Chapter 12: A Boxer Walking in a Jade Artifact

Ten years ago, Tian Minwei sat in his antique shop as before. I lit an incense stick and put it in the incense burner, picked up the Diamond Sutra on the offering table, crossed my legs and began to chant the Sutra.

"If I hear it, the Buddha is in the ...... for a while"

As he was chanting, he saw a man walking in through the door. Tian Min looked up slightly, it turned out to be an acquaintance of his, hurriedly stopped chanting, bowed to the confession, got up and greeted him with a smile.

"Lao Zhao, you haven't been here for a while, sit down quickly." As he spoke, he poured a cup of tea for Lao Zhao and handed it over.

Lao Zhao picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Lao Tian, how is the business lately?" ”

"It's okay, it's not too much like the original."

Lao Zhao nodded: "I'm not here to talk about it this time, I'm here to bring you business." There is an entrepreneur's father in our hometown who loves to collect jade, and he is not short of money, so he wants to collect some real things, you can bring a few things and go to his house with us in the afternoon. ”

Tian Minwei was very happy when she heard this, and hurriedly took out two boxes from the safe, put them in her backpack, locked the store door, and walked down the building of the antique city with Lao Zhao.

When I walked downstairs, I saw a Mercedes-Benz mid-size SUV parked downstairs. When I opened the car door, I saw a person sitting inside, this man was burly, with a small head, with a black eye, and wearing a casual suit. Hearing that someone came in, he opened his eyes and squinted at Tian Minwei who came in.

Tian Min took a look, isn't this Wang **, an expert in jade and Tian Huang from the College of Culture and Museum? hurriedly said hello: "Teacher Wang, hello, hello." ”

Seeing that this Wang Da expert still looked at Tian Minwei with slanted eyes, he didn't speak and walked nasally: "Uh-huh......" and then continued to close his eyes and recuperate, just like a table clock.

Tian Min looked at it and thought to himself that I was not interested, so I sat next to Expert Wang and stopped talking.

The car stopped after about twenty minutes, Tian Minwei opened the door and walked out of the car. Lao Zhao took Tian Minwei and Wang Da Expert into a five-star hotel and walked up the elevator to the fifth floor. After stepping out of the elevator, I came to a private room.

Lao Zhao knocked on the door of the private room, and heard an answer from inside: "Come in." ”

Lao Zhao pushed the door in, and Tian Minwei and Wang Da experts also walked in. I saw an old man sitting in the private room, this old man was sixty or seventy years old, wearing a Jinlilai suit, stepping on a pair of leather shoes with the head of an old man's head, and holding a red sandalwood crutch with a 5.0 diameter Burmese sapphire in his hand.

Lao Zhao was just about to step forward to talk, but the expert Wang Da on the side pushed him aside and rushed to the front of the old man: "Oh, old man, how are you doing during this time?" I am a jade expert at the College of Culture and Museums, and my doctoral supervisor is Wang**. ”

Tian Min asked Lao Zhao on the side suspiciously: "Look at the end, Wang ** and the buyer have known each other for at least ten years." ”

Lao Zhao smiled and muttered in a low voice: "This grandson knows each other like this everywhere, otherwise, he can be a brick family." ”

Tian Minwei and Lao Zhao sat on the side, and saw that Wang Da expert and the buyer were greeting for a while, and chatted for half an hour. Lao Zhao looked embarrassed: "Inside, teacher, don't talk about family affairs first, let's talk about business." As he spoke, he pointed to Tian Minwei on the side. This is the master of Fenghexuan in the antique city, and he is a master in the jade shop. ”

Expert Wang Da on the side snorted disdainfully: "It turned out to be a runner, but we are nationally certified jade experts." ”

Lao Zhao became more and more embarrassed, and hurriedly started a round: "One, two, everyone is a peer, don't be so restrained." Please take out the contents of your bag and let all of us have a long eye. ”

Tian Minwei looked at the Wang expert on the side, and saw that the Wang expert looked at Tian Minwei with disdain: "You take it first, the things I collect are all national treasures, and I can't let you people who run the rivers and lakes look at it." ”

Tian Min smiled slightly, took out a golden silk nanmu box from his bag, pushed the top cover of the golden silk nanmu box, and took out a mutton fat jade net bottle from the box. I saw that the shape of this net bottle is like the net bottle in the hands of Guanyin Bodhisattva, the whole body is white and flawless, and the size is more than ten centimeters high. There is a treasure flower carved on it, and the treasure flower has a lot of flower vines distributed from the petals, which are distributed in various parts of this net bottle, and there is a carved passionflower at the bottom of the bottle with red sandalwood with high legs.

Tian Min smiled: "Several, this "Qing Qianlong Palace Office of the Western Passion Sheep Fat White Jade Bottle" with the original red sandalwood high-legged wooden seat, is the return of the Japanese Ancient Dragon Club Auction House, please take your eyes." ”

I saw the old man pick up the net bottle and look at it carefully, play with it in his hand over and over again, love it very much, and said with a smile: "This Mr. Tian, how much does this white jade net bottle of the Qianlong court cost to sell?" ”

"Two hundred and fifty thousand."

Seeing that the expert Wang Da on the side sneered disdainfully, closed his eyes and stopped talking.

The old man nodded, put the net bottle in the wooden box, and pushed it aside.

Tian Minwei took out a custom-made burlap box from the bag, opened the lid, and took out a small black and white jade sheep from it. This little jade sheep presents a lying posture, and the image is very vivid. This jade lying sheep is very small, only three or four centimeters in length, the background color is white, but there are many black patches inside, the sheep's back is black, and the face is also very cute.

"Everyone, this is a jade lying sheep of the Song Dynasty. The black color on it was not caused by an artificial fire, but by a fire in the tomb. The leaf tail is a typical characteristic of the Song Dynasty, although the jade quality is not very good, but the year is very good, and the pulp is also very heavy. ”

The old man played with it again and again, and he liked it very much. Asked about the price of this Song Dynasty jade lying sheep.

The expert Wang on the side still slanted his eyes and sneered: "Young man, you can't do this thing, don't open the door." ”

Tian Minwei looked at him, and saw that this Wang Da expert glared at him with disdain, turned back and said to the old buyer: "Old man, judging from my many years of appraisal experience, this teacher Tian took out the "Qing Qianlong Palace Office made white jade west fan as a clean bottle" and this "Song Dynasty Jade Lying Sheep" are all high-imitation fakes. ”

Tian Minwei was stunned when he heard this, and said in his heart that these two things are things that are wide open, and they are inherited in an orderly manner, so they can't be fakes, so he has to refute them. But as soon as he was about to refute, he was stopped by expert Wang Da.

"Young man, I am a doctoral supervisor of the College of Culture and Museums, a front-line expert in domestic appraisal, recognized by the state, and what I say is an appraisal certificate. Don't go on, it's a lie. Pack up and fuck off. As he spoke, he handed the wooden box containing the white jade net bottle in his hand and handed it to Tian Minwei's hand, Tian Minwei was bent on the head, put the wooden box in the bag, and smiled at Wang Da expert: "Teacher Wang**, you take out your collection and let Tian someone have a long view, what do you think?" ”

Expert Wang glanced at Tian Minwei out of the corner of his eye, and said disdainfully: "Charlatans like you are not qualified to look at my collection, pack up your things and get out." ”

Tian Min suppressed the anger in his heart slightly, lifted the bag, and walked out of the private room in a huff.

Coming out of the elevator of the hotel, Tian Minwei suddenly remembered that the Song Dynasty jade lying sheep was still on the table in the private room, and hurriedly returned to the elevator.

When she arrived at the door of the private room, Tian Minwei walked in without even knocking on the door. As soon as I entered the door, I heard the sound of bargaining in the house.

"Old man, we are all acquaintances, fifty thousand."

"Thirty thousand."

Tian Minwei walked into the room and took a closer look, and was stunned by the scene in front of him.

I saw that Wang Da expert was holding a Hongshan Culture Pig Dragon Jade Recipe with a diameter of 60 centimeters. From afar, you can find that this thing has just been used for use of hydrofluoric acid, and it is a low-grade imitation that cannot be lower, which is what the antique industry calls "fake at a glance".

When expert Wang saw that Tian Minwei had come back from outside, he hurriedly covered the "Jade Pig Dragon" with both hands. Nodding his nose and scolding: "Who let you in, did you knock on the door?" Didn't your parents educate you......"

When Tian Minwei saw this "Jade Pig Dragon", his anger had completely disappeared, and he said in his heart that you are capable of this, and the dog lifted the curtain and relied on his mouth. Thinking of this, he smiled: "Oh, Mr. Wang, your collection is really amazing, this thing is not in the Palace Museum, this thing is worth 300 million." After speaking, he picked up the jade lying sheep and turned around and left.

When I returned to the store, I put these two things in the safe, and said in my heart that this Wang ** is really stinky and shameless, and the "fake area" of this thing in Panjiayuan is not everywhere. Looking at my watch, the day passed again, and thinking of this, I drove back to my home.

Ten days later, Tian Minwei and his wife Wang Shurun sat in the store as usual. Tian Minwei was still chanting the Diamond Sutra on the offering table, and at this moment, Lao Zhao walked in from outside the door, Wang Shurun got up and beckoned him to sit down, and poured him a cup of tea.

Tian Minwei saw Lao Zhao walking in from outside, and said with a smile: "Lao Zhao, Wang Da expert's "Big Red Mountain" has been sold? ”

After hearing this, Lao Zhao took a sip: "Don't mention it, even I know that his red mountain is a dead thing, and finally sold it to the old man for 35,000 yuan." As a result, just a day later, he called me, saying that the thing he sold was a fake, and asked Wang ** to return it, and to reason with him. As soon as this king ** heard this, he didn't dare to show up and returned the money, and he didn't even dare to ask for anything back. ”

Wang Shurun, who was sitting on the side, smiled: "Don't you talk about Wang **, isn't it true or false even if it is Zhou ** of a certain museum." He opened a study class and came to the antique city to fight, not only could he not tell the generations, but he couldn't even tell the truth from the fake. I guess Wang **, a big expert, still thinks that this "big red mountain" is real. ”

Lao Zhao looked at Tian Minwei: "Lao Tian, you take the two things that day and go to the old man's house with me, I think the old man really wants to buy your two things, and he is not short of money, just the real things he wants to play." ”

Tian Minwei hurriedly waved his hand: "Get Lao Zhao, I won't go, if I go again, I will come back to a Wang Da expert like this, and then take out a "heirloom jade seal" or something, my little heart can't stand it." ”
