Liulichang has a unique position in the minds of domestic literati.

In modern times, there are many calligraphers and painters with heads and faces, but they are not recognized by the glaze factory, and it is very unrealistic to want to mix in the rivers and lakes.

Everyone such as Zhang Daqian, Qi Baishi and others have left good stories in Liulichang. In fact, the glaze factory not only has the role of pasting gold on the faces of literati and ink artists, but also has the role of trading antique cultural toys.

Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the glaze factory was famous, and the cultural relics trade was very developed.

However, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the glaze factory gradually declined, especially at the end of the eighties, the glaze factory has experienced a downturn of more than 30 years.

"The rise and fall of the glaze factory can be regarded as a barometer of China's historical development."

Three hundred meters to the south of the Peace Gate, an old street with carved beams and paintings jumped into the eye, although there was no Zhang Luosheng in a robe and a horse coat, but one by one antique shops, porcelain, calligraphy and painting, carving, ancient books still dragged Ji Sheng and his party into the smoke and clouds of history into the Liulichang antique market.

He was listening to Zhu Flocking explain the history of the glaze factory.

Zhi Youcai also listened attentively.

Zhu Rongrong walked inside, and said softly: "If it coincides with the prosperous era, it is also the spring of the cultural and antique trade, of course, the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China are exceptions, and the prosperity of antiques and cultural toys in this period is a sick and distorted phenomenon." The spring of the official revival of the collection was still the early stage of reform and opening up. During this period, most people had not yet become rich, and the antique market was oversupplied, so the cultural toys in Liulichang were relatively cheap. ”

Ji Sheng came from modern society, of course, he knew that what Lao Zhu said was the truth, affected by the planned economy for many years, the price was not very high, and the entire eighties was the golden age of collecting, he was very glad that he came to the end of this golden age, and had the opportunity to catch the last train.

"Let's take a look around, and then go to Rong Bao Zhai later." Zhu flocking pointed to the shop in front.

Ji Sheng snorted, "Go in and have a look." ”

This is an old bungalow, and the signboard reads "Huaiyin Mountain House" with the words "Dragon Flying and Phoenix Dancing".

Ji Sheng walked in first, and Zhu flocking and Zhi Youcai followed behind.

As soon as he entered the Huaiyin Mountain House, he was a little surprised, because there was no counter, no cash register, and as soon as he entered, there were all kinds of wood carvings, porcelain, copper ornaments, old furniture and jade neatly placed in an orderly manner, and these items were attached with labels with the names and prices of the products.

Ji Sheng looked in again, and found that there was a table of eight immortals painted with elm wood near the window, with Taishi chairs on both sides of the table, and couplets hanging between the walls, which were a little far from seeing the content.

In the observation room, a man in his fifties stepped forward with a smile, "Three young brothers, do you want to see something?" ”

Zhu Zhirong also responded with a smile: "Brother Nian, I accompanied my friends to come and see the elegant things. ”

The two exchanged a few words.

Ji Sheng was silent on the side, he didn't expect the current store to be so polite, and he called each other "Brother Nian" with customers, which was no longer seen in the future.

After a short exchange, the shopkeeper suddenly realized: "It turns out that Brother Ji Nian likes porcelain, do you want me to recommend it?" ”

Ji Shengbao said politely with a smile: "Then there is Brother Lao Nian." ”

The shopkeeper led the three of them to the porcelain area, and said casually: "My porcelain in the Yongzheng period is more expensive, five hundred bowls and plates, the Qianlong official kiln is slightly cheaper, more than four hundred, as for other eras, it is not very valuable, more than 100 yuan." ”

Ji Sheng almost fainted when he heard this, Damn, you are too cheap, right, only sold for five hundred during the Yongzheng period? More than 400 official kilns in Qianlong?

How did he know that today's glass manufacturers disdain Qianlong's previous things, and not many people want them.

Even in the early nineties, there was an antique shop accidentally smashed a piece of official kiln porcelain from the Daoguang period, at that time it seemed that this was a piece of garbage, considering that every item had an account to check, so it could only be reluctantly put into storage, thrown in an inconspicuous place in the corner, until 1998, when the antique shop sorted out the warehouse, when the porcelain was going to be disposed of, there were three collectors who happened to come to this store to compete for a look, and finally sold it to the person with the highest price for 15,000 yuan. At the time, the people at the antique shop couldn't believe it.

It is conceivable how much the glaze factory does not pay attention to the porcelain of the Qing Dynasty's official kiln.

Zhu flocking smiled and said, "Okay, talented, come with me to pick out some good porcelain with Mr. Ji." ”

"Whoa." Zhi Youcai leaned over to take a look, but he didn't get started.

Ji Sheng also looked at it curiously, and he saw a product named "Qing Guangxu. Blue and white entwined branches and continuous pattern plates", the style is written in eight-character double-line block letters, "the tomb of the five clans with the Jiechen system".

The price is only fifty yuan?

He was speechless for a while, this thing is worth twenty or thirty thousand in modern society!

Ji Sheng said without hesitation: "Brother Nian, I want this plate." ”

The boss sighed, "Okay, I'll take it out for you first, and you will settle the bill together after you finish picking it out." ”

Ji Sheng said: "Thank you." ”

Zhi Youcai glanced at it and said with a smile: "Boss, there are so many good things here, what are you buying a plate from the Guangxu period?" ”

Ji Sheng explained randomly, "I bought it when it looks good." ”

He opened a collectibles company in modern society, and it was impossible to only do high-end antique business, but always a little low-end and mid-end.

While he was talking here, Ji Sheng saw another "Qing Yongzheng. Blue and white alum red cloud dragon pattern plate", although the price is five hundred, but he has seen the introduction of similar items in modern society, which is about 100,000 yuan, just to enrich the inventory of his modern society company, "This plate is also needed." ”

"Okay." The boss responded.

Then Ji Sheng went crazy.

Qing Qianlong. Yellow ground pastel eight auspicious candlesticks!

A pair of Qing Tongzhi. Yellow ground pastel magpie denmei pattern cup!

A pair of Qingdao lights. Carmine purple ground rolling road open light pastel grain harvest bowl!

Ji Sheng bought thirty or forty pieces of low-end porcelain in one go.

The boss was dumbfounded, he had seen a lot of arrogant guests, but he had never seen Ji Sheng like this, he bought thirty or forty pieces as soon as he made a move? Although these porcelains are not too good things for his shop, and the price is cheap, but if they are thirty or forty pieces cheaper, they will cost more than 10,000 yuan!

Suddenly, Zhu Zhirong shouted in surprise, "Brother Nian, this yellow glaze molded cloud crane pattern square bottle from the Daoguang period only sells for three hundred yuan?" ”

Ji Sheng followed the sound and found an extremely beautiful yellow square bottle in his eyes, this thing is not ordinary at first glance.

The boss said very casually: "Well, three hundred, if you want it, you can ......"

Before he finished speaking, a somewhat hoarse but familiar voice came from the door, "I'm out of four hundred!" ”

Ji Sheng looked sideways at the door, and found speechlessly that the person who spoke was actually a young man who was bidding with him in Panjiayuan in the morning, and he didn't have a good impression of this young man, the previous Xuande furnace could have been bought at a very cheap price, but it was carried to more than 3,000 yuan by this guy.

And now you're messing with me again?

Ji Sheng couldn't help frowning.

Zhi Youcai was also very unhappy, and said angrily: "Can you little red guy have a face?" We're watching, and you want to grab it again? ”

The young man was stunned as always, "I have money, can you manage it!" ”

I wish flocking this age, and when I heard the words of the young man, my face twitched, and I wanted to beat this guy very much.

However, something happened that no one expected.

The boss glanced at the young man coldly, he was not as accustomed to the young man as the boss who sold bronze ware in Panjiayuan, "Brother Nian, if you want to bid, you have to wait for these guests to put down their things, right?" My hundred-year-old store has the rules of a century-old store, it's not that you have money! ”

The young man was laughed at by the boss.

Ji Sheng couldn't help but glance at the boss, I have to say that this kind of time-honored antique shop is still very backbone, and it is not blinded by money, this is the heritage of a hundred years of inheritance.

"Okay, I'll take a look at the rest." The young man didn't argue with the boss about anything, and walked towards the porcelain area, ready to see what else to buy before deciding what to buy.

Ji Sheng had long seen this kid unpleasantly.

Before, I broke the rules in Panjiayuan and bid with me, but now I run to Liulichang like this?

And tell me that you have money?

Today, a buddy will let you see what real pride is!

Ji Sheng really saw that this guy was extremely unhappy, and seeing that the young man was about to squat down to look at the porcelain, he stretched out his hand and stopped him, "Slow, you can't look at these." ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, "Why?" You're not the boss. ”

The boss was also a little dizzy and said: "Brother Ji Nian, I'm opening the door to do business, it's not good for you to stop my guests like this, right?" ”

Zhi Youcai and Zhu flocking looked confused, not knowing what Ji Sheng was doing.

"I know it's not good for you to open the door for business, and stop your guests." Ji Sheng first affirmed the boss's words.

The young man couldn't help but say, "Then why don't you let me see it?" ”

The boss followed and said, "Yes, you ......"

Ji Shengpi looked at the young man with a smile, but said to the boss, "I remember that there is a rule in the entertainment circle, when a buyer negotiates with the seller about the product he likes, other buyers who are also interested in the product cannot express any opinions on the side, nor can they participate in the bidding, and should keep an appropriate distance and wait." If the deal doesn't go through, the goods can be put back in their place before you can negotiate with the seller, right? ”

"Yes, yes, but this generally means that you have mastered it." The boss told the truth.

The young man shouted there: "That's it, you haven't started it, why can't I watch it?" ”

Ji Sheng stood there calmly and said lightly, "Because there are too many things, I only have two hands, of course I can't get started with them all." ”

The boss was taken aback, "Brother Ji Nian, are you going to ......"

Zhu flocking eyelids jumped, and probably guessed what Ji Sheng was going to do.

Zhi Youcai was in a similar situation, he couldn't help but hold his breath!

Only the young man didn't react, "What the hell are you going to do?" ”

"I didn't do anything, I want all these porcelain!"

Ji Sheng waved his hand domineeringly and said, "Boss, you calculate how many pieces of porcelain there are, I bought them all!" ”

it!

Are you crazy?

What about the few two or three hundred pieces of porcelain here, and you bought them all by yourself?

I've seen you go crazy, but I've never seen you go crazy so badly!

Although the vast majority of these two or three hundred pieces of porcelain are a few hundred yuan a piece, but the advantage is in the number, even if the average price is three hundred, so many porcelains are also 100,000 smaller, why don't you have money to bring such a spendrite to the scary, small 100,000, according to the current per capita wage just broke 100, a worker has to eat or drink for more than 80 years to earn!

Everyone present was completely stunned by Ji Sheng's generosity.
