Maybe a woman's sixth sense is still a miracle, right? Gu Yan has been absent-minded these days, and always feels that something is going to happen. On the 18th, she received a call from Xu Qing early in the morning, saying that she was going to ask for sick leave, she was not at ease, and asked, "Very sick?" Did you go to the hospital? ”

Xu Qing said: "Acute gastroenteritis, waiting for an infusion." ”

"Then you ......"

"I'm not going to the company today."

"Okay." Gu Yan thought about it, he couldn't let people come to work at this juncture, it was too inhumane. Only Xu Qing rarely takes sick leave, and catching up with the special day, she is even more restless, thinks about it and says, "Which hospital are you in?" I'll let Jiang Yi take a look at you later. ”

Xu Qing reported the address.

After hanging up the phone, the called car also arrived, Xu Qing immediately got into the car, and Xu Zhiliu followed closely and asked, "Aren't you afraid that Jiang Yi will not find you in the hospital?" ”

"Let's talk about it if I can't find it, Jiang Yi may not go yet."

Jiang Yixin is not in the three groups, everything is easy to handle. Gu Yan is different, if she knows that she is pretending to be sick, this phone call will be endless.

After Xu Qing reported the address to the driver, he took out the hand-drawn map after stepping on the spot in the past few days. Magnolia Mansion is built in the ancient city, with comprehensive facilities and dense flow of people nearby.

Probably for the purpose of planning a historic district, several ancient alleys near the mansion connecting to the kiln factory were blocked, including a back alley that led to the park next to the mansion. The park has dug an artificial wild lake, and the lake is full of reeds, and an abandoned path behind the reeds can lead to the inner wall of the mansion.

Hearing that the Qing Garden and the Republic of China Mansion will leave a special passage for escape, Xu Qing estimated that this opening was specially left by the architect, hidden in the intricate alleys, and no one found it. Soon, they reached the inner wall of the mansion.

This interior wall connects to the villa's relaxation area and is still a short way from the auction center. Fortunately, it was remote enough and the security was lax, so Xu Qing came in without too much effort. The villas were lined up, with a ginkgo avenue in the middle, full of golden eyes and empty, and she was about to lower her guard, not wanting to be caught by a cleaning aunt just as she walked across the golf course.

Auntie was cleaning the court, and saw a curly-haired woman wearing sunglasses sneakily walking against the ginkgo tree from a distance, she felt that something was wrong, and she was about to call someone when she opened her mouth, Xu Qing also found her at this time and shouted: "Don't scream." ”

The aunt paused and asked her, "Who are you?" How come you are here early in the morning? ”

Xu Qing saw that she was holding a garbage bag in her hand, and her voice rose sharply: "Can you control who I am?" ”

Auntie was stunned.

"You're the cleaner here, aren't you? It's just right, I'll go to my room to clean up, and iron the jersey on the bed for me. Seeing that her aunt hadn't dispelled her doubts, she said again, "Have you seen Wu Yi?" ”

"Mr. Wu?"

"yes, you said you were going to pick me up, but I'm so annoyed." She flicked her hair, "This is the way the auction is going, right?" ”

The aunt knew that there was an important event today and she had to receive a lot of distinguished guests, and she was a friend of the host family who could not afford to offend, so she enthusiastically pointed in the direction and asked her where her room was. Xu Qing casually pointed towards the villa area, pushed his sunglasses, and left with Nana.

As soon as she walked out of her aunt's sight, she immediately quickened her pace. The closer you get to the auction center, the tighter the security, with a sentry every few meters, and security guards walking back and forth on the side of the road.

She had to watch from behind a tree, and when she was about to go out, a shuttle bus came from far and near. Xu Qing looked around, the left and right were open, there were no buildings, so he had to hide behind the hillside through the ginkgo forest.

The car drove to a nearby stop, and the walkie-talkie clicked a few times, and then the security manager turned his head and said to the man behind him: "The cleaning aunt saw a suspicious woman in the villa area. ”

"What's the dress?"

"Long hair and sunglasses."

Zhu Rong's voice paused: "Check all the surveillance covering the mansion and find the woman." ”

"Okay."

Zhu Rong also instructed the security manager: "Send a few more cars to patrol, and those who are not on the invitation list will not be allowed to go, and notify me as soon as there is any situation." ”

In order to prevent someone from impersonating his identity, he stressed again, "Based on the list photo I gave, if you read the wrong one, I will ask you." ”

Xu Qing thought of the invitation that was thrown in the trash, and suddenly understood what the teacher meant. Zhu Rong's appearance here means that they guessed that he was Wang Yu's husband, and Wang Yu was indeed sending a signal through the invitation letter. Even if it was Wu Yi who came today, I was afraid that he would be stopped outside the gate, and if he couldn't come in, he would startle the snake, so he threw away the invitation.

She thought that infrared detection was already the highest level of security, but she didn't expect that Wang Yu's invitation was the danger. Aware of the teacher's good intentions, she showed regret in her eyes.

The auction started at ten o'clock in the morning, Zhu Rong saw that the time was already half past nine, and the distinguished guest should have arrived, so he simply let the car turn around and send him back to Fanghua Garden. Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that the car was about to leave, suddenly the mobile phone vibrate.

She hurriedly pressed off Jiang Yi's phone, but heard Zhu Rong outside calling to stop: "Wait, I seem to hear a voice." ”

The security manager immediately got out of the car and searched.

Zhu Rong sat in the car, his eyes wandered around, and finally settled on one place, which happened to be the low slope where Xu Qing was hiding. Xu Zhiliu didn't need to hide, he could see it clearly outside, and after the security manager got Zhu Rong's signal, he greeted him left and right, and the security guards all came closer, forming a circle of encirclement.

Xu Qing curled up in the blind spot of her vision, and she didn't dare to come out of the atmosphere, only to hear the sound of squirming footsteps getting closer and closer, and she felt a thump in her heart, knowing that it was over.

Just as he was about to start, there were suddenly several obvious noises behind the bushes on the other side of the road, and a stone smashed directly into Zhu Rong's feet. As soon as the security manager turned his head, everyone else followed and ran to the other side, and Xu Qing seized the opportunity to run through the woods to the nearest complex.

When she walked away, Xu Zhiliu stopped moving.

At this time, Xu Qing arrived at the side gate of Fanghua Garden. After entering the garden, the security inside was much lax, she changed into a set of waitress clothes in the lounge, calmly blended into the crowd, listened to the foreman explain the key points of reception, and then followed the foreman to the main gate of Fanghua Garden.

Most buyers also know that the so-called private auction is nothing more than a high-end black market transaction, and they do not communicate with each other further, and the free waiters are led to the relaxation area, the viewing area, or the trading area to wait.

Xu Qing followed the example, took the guests inside, passed through the second courtyard, passed through a corner gate, and arrived at today's main trading area. The main trading area is located in the theater building, with four masks, the scene is dim, but the booths are very luxuriously arranged, each of which is a high-end leather seat, equipped with refreshments, fruits and electronic equipment, and a fan for auction, painted with magnolia, no different from the invitation.

Buyers can also call for a waiter through the in-seat bell service. In addition, there are partitions between each booth, which are specially designed to have high and low positions, so that there will be no vision problems, but can get an independent and free space without being disturbed by other guests.

There are all kinds of props on the stage, and there is a table table under the stage to write the post of "Pear Garden", looking at the overall situation, it looks like a theater-themed theater hall.

After Xu Qing sent the distinguished guest, he found a corner and sat down, hiding himself in the dark as much as possible, and showed a pair of feet to signal that there was someone in the position. Xu Zhiliu met her again at the gate of Fanghua Garden, sitting at her feet at this time, dressed in a long robe, not shocked, but a little in line with the scene of the theater.

He unconsciously thought of "Fishing and Killing Home", thinking of the nine cold days of that year, the branches were bent by the snow, and the sunspot died silently in Wuyi Lane, he and Xiao Liang met in the dense water vapor of the teahouse, he poured tea for him, and said that he admired him very much, and he always admired him.

Yesterday's all kinds are still vivid. Xu Zhiliu turned his face away, didn't look at the flower face, didn't think about the tone, only buzzed in his ears, and unconsciously spit out a sentence: The world is rich and glorious, and the Zhilan jade tree is under the knees.

He said to Xu Qing: "That was Xiao Liang's most simple thought when he was a child. ”

"Is this thought still called simplicity?"

"Yes, I also laugh at him, where can ordinary people be rich and glorious, a peaceful life is already a luxury, and his thoughts may only be realized in the play." Xu Zhiliu said, "I thought about writing a play for him, but I never had the opportunity." ”

Xu Qing didn't speak, looked at him and smiled. Xu Zhiliu's cheeks were hot from laughter, and she laughed as if she was evading.

"No wonder you love to listen to drama so much."

"No, it's not what you think." Xu Zhiliu looked like she couldn't speak, "My mother can also sing a few words, and she loved listening to them when she was a child." ”

"Then when you listen to the play later, do you miss your mother or ......?"

Before she could finish, the front side door of the theater was closed. Xu Qing immediately turned his color, and the auction was about to start. A figure appeared first on the stage, due to the dim light, and the other party's face could not be seen clearly, only a slender silhouette was faintly reflected on the screen, which looked like a woman.

The woman introduced herself: "Hello everyone, I am today's auction supervisor, Liu An. ”

Liu An should be a pseudonym.

Liu An said, "It's a pleasure to meet you again in Liyuan, and many of them have come to participate in our auction for the second time this year, right?" I'm sure you're all looking forward to today's lot, so I won't talk nonsense about it, and I'll invite you to our first lot today. ”

While speaking, the light on one side of the stage was lit up, shining straight on the carved dragon pillar of the size of the full moon, and above the pillar was a Qing Qianlong imitation Longquan kiln blue glazed phoenix ear bottle.

The phoenix ear bottle is made of a plate, a straight neck, and a straight abdomen to form a second-order bottle body, and a double phoenix or double dragon ear is added on both sides of the straight neck, which began in the Song Dynasty.

Song Dynasty porcelain is pure and elegant.

Celadon is mainly based on the azure of Henan Ru kiln, the pink blue of Zhejiang official kiln, the plum green of Longquan kiln, and the olive green of Yaozhou kiln in Shaanxi, among which the plum green of Longquan kiln is the best, the glaze color is exquisite, and the kiln workers use the method of glazing many times, so that the utensils present a warm and moist feeling, the color is deep and thick, crystal full, comparable to jadeite.

In the case of the loss of the glaze layer, the carving and scratching decoration that prevailed in the Northern Song Dynasty was no longer used, so the piling plastic relief technique came into being, and this kind of phoenix ear and fish ear is the unique decorative style of Longquan celadon in the Southern Song Dynasty.

Liu An introduced that the authenticity of the Longquan kiln in the Song Dynasty is scarce, and one is known to be in the Palace Museum in Beijing, and the other is in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, and the one they auctioned was produced by the official kiln during the Qianlong period.

As soon as I heard about the production of the official kiln, the atmosphere in the theater was immediately ignited. Liu An said with a smile: "There is no finale in our lots, each one is priceless. ”

The price of cultural relics auction has always been based on the degree of scarcity as the standard, the so-called rare is expensive, it is precisely because of this, the rarer the antiques, the more precious, the more the market praises, the more blind the wind chasers, coupled with the pursuit of literati and ink writers, the love of the emperors of the past dynasties, the class symbols represented by the royal family, and the diplomacy of various ceremonial porcelain, gradually broadened the cultural relics market, so that the demand is greater than the supply, then there is antique.

Xu Zhiliu said that antiquity does not only exist in the world, it was very popular in ancient times, and reached its peak in the Qing Dynasty, large-scale imitation of the five famous kiln works, not only that, but also the later imitation of the previous dynasty, the innovation of various forms and colors of glaze, and now it is more than that. He has studied historical materials, and in recent decades, many cultural and cultural outlets have flowed to the antique markets in Hong Kong, Macao and other places, attracting many collectors to buy, so that the antique market is mixed, and a large number of antique porcelain has flowed to the international market through legitimate channels such as the Canton Fair or illegal channels such as smuggling, and the amount is quite amazing.

What Jingdezhen saw was only the tip of the iceberg, and the so-called Qianlong imitation Longquan kiln blue-glazed phoenix ear bottle on the stage was a real fake.

Although he knows very little about antiquity, he has seen hundreds of bottles from the official kiln of the Qing Dynasty, not to mention many pieces. The reason why plum green is richer than other celadon glazes is that it has a higher iron oxide content in the glaze. Plum green is bean green, followed by pink green and shadow green.

Among them, there is cobalt earth in the glaze of pink blue, and the color is lake green and slightly blue.

This bit of blue, if you don't look closely, you can't find it, precisely because he sees too much, he has already formed a certain visual reflection, and he can catch the subtle difference at once. He turned around and attached to Xu Qing's ear and said: "Emperor Qianlong is so colorful, the pink and green are soft and elegant, like green jade, there is blue light under the light, compared with jadeite, there is still a difference in color transparency and purity." ”

Xu Qing expected that it was a fake, but he didn't expect that a pink and green bottle would be hyped into plum green to raise the price, knowing that the real Longquan kiln cultural relics could not flow here, so he gave An an imitation of the Later Dynasty and the official kiln production, that is, the emperor's royal use, and the starting price was certainly not low.

There were people in the booth who asked for the price one after another, and the final transaction price was as high as seven figures.

Later, there were several pieces of porcelain from the Qing Dynasty, similar to the Kangxi official kiln red color brocade land longevity without borders, there is a yang pattern in the heart, it was fired by the official kiln for the birthday celebration, and there was also imitation burning during the Qianlong period, the pattern did not change, and the lot on the stage was painted with colorful flowers and birds, and the color and Kangxi color also had slight differences, at first glance, it was an imitation of the late Republic of China, and it was by no means produced by the official kiln at that time. The price is calculated according to the period of the official kiln and the number of circulating pieces, which is also expensive.

Xu Qing used his mobile phone to record the whole process, and he didn't make a noise, until a black flower dragon pattern bottle from Cizhou kiln appeared on the stage, and suddenly someone stood up and asked loudly: "This is not the real thing, right?" ”
