Chapter 37: White Jade Dragon Core Pillow
After a few days and nights of bumps on the road, the green train finally arrived in Guangzhou, and transferred to the bus from Guangzhou back to Jiangmen. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Poison-eyed Dragon is still the same as before, with a pair of dark black sunglasses that can't see the eyes, and then add a melon skin hat, a coat, and a flag written on the side "Sai Shenxian", the whole live fortune teller blind. No one could have imagined that he would be one of the best connoisseurs in the antiques market.
Seeing the two of us coming, the poison-eyed dragon hurriedly put down the business at hand, and asked in his weird Hong Kong and Taiwan accent: "You two, why haven't you been here for so long?" I miss you guys. ”
The fat man immediately wanted to take out the white jade pillow in his bag and show him how much it was worth, the two of us have guessed this more than once, and today we can finally have a solid bottom.
The one-eyed dragon waved his hand quietly, signaling us not to rush to take out the things: "Let's go to Guangming Road, the afternoon tea last time was really good, there are not many people at this point, it is very quiet, so the place of Yiyi Street is mixed, there are many people and eyes, it is not a place to talk, and the ghosts can't be exposed in this place." Wait a minute, you two, I'll finish what I'm doing and leave. ”
The "ghost" mentioned by the poison-eyed dragon is the jargon of the antique shop, and the meaning of the tomb robber is the same as that of the tomb robber, this "ghost" does not refer to the ghost in the usual sense, it refers to the dead person, and the meaning of "ghost goods" refers to the burial goods of the dead. Many things in the antique shop have to ask for a source, and there are various sources, for example, "wasteland" refers to the streets and alleys, go to the countryside, and pick up waste everywhere. Wild goods are the mainstream of the antique shop, and the truth is mixed. There are also "thief goods, new goods" and so on, and there are some kinds of ways to say what kind of way they come from.
While speaking, the poison-eyed dragon put a Ming Dynasty blue and white porcelain that I looked awkward in the layman, and the buyer was a foreigner with a translator, probably because only this blue and white in the stall was the most fancy, and I was reluctant to lose it in my hand. We don't see how much it is, but it looks like if it were a real guy, it would have to be slaughtered.
After finishing this business, the poison-eyed dragon counted the banknotes in his hand, and the dark sunglasses couldn't see his eyes, I guess he was also happy at this time: "It's not open for three years, it's open for three years, these **** foreigners, a new product looks beautiful, like a baby, my ancestors have been plagued by these gringos, I don't know how many treasures have been snatched away by them, and today I can be regarded as recovering some interest, the two said that this is not what it means?" ”
The fat man and I are asking him now, who cares if what he says is true or not, of course, he followed his words, and nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, this meaning, these foreign devils didn't take our babies back then, but I didn't expect these **** to be so illiterate, and giving him the real guy is simply a violent thing." ”
Packing up our things, we went to the teahouse where we talked for the first time, and the poison-eyed dragon made a lot of money today, plus the two of us sang a double reed and praised him, we were a little fluttery, drinking tea and bragging.
I looked around, as the Poison-Eyed Dragon said before, it was not punctual now, the whole teahouse was deserted, only the table in our corner, a few waiters gathered together to chat, and no one noticed the three of us at all.
So I asked the fat man to take out the white jade pillow and give it to the poison-eyed dragon palm eye, and by the way, I picked up some important things about the general experience of this trip to Yunnan. The poison-eyed dragon looked very carefully, took off the pair of black sunglasses that he had worn all the year round, put them to his nose from time to time to ask, licked them with his tongue, and took out a magnifying glass from his arms to look at it, and asked some details about the ancient tomb.
The poison-eyed dragon said: "This antiquity identification, I know a little about fur, my father learned it from Lao Dao back then, and Brother Xiao Zou should have heard of it, so I will be ugly." My father once used a sentence to describe this identification of antiquities, just like Lang Zhong to see a doctor and take the pulse, look and hear everything, especially this kind of ghost goods, ghost goods are different from other licensed goods, whether it is a family heirloom, a family collection or those things in museums, most of them have a clear way to come, and the gloss of the surface of the object is different when exposed to the sun for a long time. The ghosts are all upside down and have been buried under the ancient tombs, and there are many types of ancient tombs. The first is to look, look at the workmanship, style, color, each different role of the thing style is also different, in our place to fake a lot, the means are also different, take this bowl for example, originally had to be buried in the soil for hundreds of years, now more than ten days can be fake, first prepare a pot, put a stirring thing at the bottom of the pot, throw the bowl into the yellow sand, sand and bowl keep rubbing and stirring, after a certain period of time and then take it out with the secret recipe processing, this secret recipe has its own method, Some will be buried in a pit for ten days and half a month. This has to be said again, after all, a fake is a fake, put it in the pit to make it old, it is indeed a way, but this can't hide the nose of the connoisseur, can the things buried in the ancient tomb for hundreds of thousands of years be the same as the things that have been put in the pit of and urine for more than ten days? In is to ask, ask where this object came from, whether there is any source, the person who is inverted will naturally explain one by one, I can also judge whether he is true or false according to what he said, and the style and workmanship of the object, which can also explain the true value of this thing from the side. The last is to cut, this is the same as Langzhong, Langzhong pulse is a very mysterious thing, a few days ago I met a teacher at a university of traditional Chinese medicine, people said that this pulse can be accurate people, in today's world can be counted clearly with a finger, mainly because the pulse of this thing can only be understood and not spoken, literal things to see too much will only mislead people, we are also the same reason, the real connoisseur of this antique can know the truth and falsehood as soon as he arrives in his hand, every antiquity has his spirituality, It's like I have countless things on my hands, and when things come to my hands, I will feel a little bit when they reach them, and this feeling can't be faked. Some people want to learn this hand, and they will go to the antique market every day, just to get in touch with some real guys. ”
The fat man said: "Master Zhang, it's a pity if you don't go to the university to be a professor, it's really difficult for you to tell these things to people of our size who don't like to read, I didn't understand a word, I just want to know, how much is our big guy worth?" ”
The poison-eyed dragon put on his glasses again and smiled, others may look unfathomable, no matter how I look at it, I think he is a blind fortune teller: "Don't worry, fat brother, I just want to say that when you want to go to the inverted bucket again in the future, don't pick up the sesame seeds and lose the watermelon, okay, I'll tell you two something genuine." I can't name this thing, so let's give it a name for the time being, it's called 'more than 100 dragon core pillows', which can be worth a few dollars....."
"Antiques, there is no fixed price, unlike the cigarettes we smoke, there is a price bureau to give an estimate, the antique is very large, I offer this price, as long as you recognize it, he can be worth this price. If I want to quote a price, no one wants it, and there is no market for it, so it is no different from worthless. ”
"Your dragon core jade pillow, I will estimate the reserve price, but for such a large piece of white jade with such a good texture, the domestic price is at least more than 100,000, of course, if you have been abroad, it will definitely be many times higher than this, but we have a power, close to Hong Kong, if you can find a Hong Kong businessman as a buyer, you can also open a higher price tag, it depends on the situation."
There are everything to buy in the antique shop, Guangdong is at the forefront of reform and opening up, whether it is buying or selling, it has taken advantage of the time and place, and even the news is the most well-informed place. The poison-eyed dragon used to have a familiar one, at first in the north poured old coins, pen, ink, paper inkstone, embroidered shoes and other gadgets, and later came to the south, after being introduced to the mural, just like the Dunhuang mural kind of thing, and made a fortune.
The fat man gasped and sighed, "Oops.... It's a pity, Lao Zou, I said that the mural should be brought back, maybe we can make a fortune. Ay.... By the way, the mural can't be eaten or used, how much is it worth? ”
The poison-eyed dragon waved his hand and said: "It is indeed not easy to find murals, especially the ones that have gone through thousands of years of wind and rain, it is even more difficult, but you must know that people have a professional team, and this kind of large murals are all intact when they are brought out, and thousands of years of murals are bought abroad, not to mention tens of millions of dollars." You think, foreigners themselves have no history and culture, take the Americans as an example, the whole country has more than 200 years of history and what to say, all day long can only study other people's history and culture, calculated in the past, only our Chinese history and civilization is the oldest, a mural can be studied by a group of experts for many years, foreign people look at everything is strange, when the time comes to study enough, just pull to a place to exhibit, then sit back and wait for this to collect money, this is called cultural money is not wrong. ”
The fat man and I suddenly realized when I heard it, and nodded again and again, I used to know that I was riding a broken three-wheeled street to sell CDs everywhere, but I didn't know that the best money to make was to sit there and collect tickets.
I asked again: "Brother Zhang, you said that our thing is called the white jade dragon core pillow, is it that any good thing has to be hooked with the dragon to show the atmosphere?" ”
The poison-eyed dragon poured us a cup of tea and lit another cigarette: "Don't worry, there is time today, I'll tell you slowly..."
