Chapter 5 Ming Dynasty Microwave Oven
Tianyi Auction Appraisal House!
Lin Ye carefully carried his suitcase, and according to the address on the Internet, he arrived at this auction appraisal company, and there was a beautiful front desk wearing a cheongsam sitting at the front desk.
"Sir, is there anything wrong?" A professional smile appeared at the front desk.
"Hello, I have made an appointment with an expert online for identification."
"Okay, please come with me."
The girl at the front desk was wearing high heels to lead the way in front, and Lin Ye watched the girl's beautiful figure in the back under the wrapping of the cheongsam, and there was only one feeling.
Really moist.
"Mr. Yang has a seminar at the museum today, Mr. Zeng was invited to participate in a cultural exchange meeting abroad, I will arrange for you Mr. Xu, you can just go in directly."
The girl at the front desk stopped in front of an appraisal room and introduced the situation to Lin Ye, Lin Ye nodded and walked into the appraisal room.
In the appraisal room, there was a middle-aged man in his forties wearing a Tang costume, with 108 hanging wooden beads around his neck, and his whole body revealed the breath of art.
"Yo, it's a young Tibetan friend, little friend, take out the collection."
Lin Ye put down the suitcase, opened it carefully, and then took out the porcelain vase from a pile of clothes, he didn't bring all of them, but only one.
"Very beautiful amphora ceramic vase, Xiaoyou, how did this porcelain vase come from?"
"Ancestral upload." Lin Ye grinned.
"Put it on the table."
Lin Ye wanted to hand over the ceramics, but Teacher Xu didn't take it, but motioned for Lin Ye to put the ceramic bottle on the table.
"Xiaoyou probably doesn't know much about antiques."
"I don't know much about this, I've kept this bottle at home for many years, so I thought about giving it to an expert."
"That's pretty much what I guessed." Teacher Xu nodded, and while holding a magnifying glass to observe the porcelain vase, he explained: "In the antique industry, things can't be handed over, I'm afraid that they won't be broken and broken, and secondly, if something goes wrong, there is a division of responsibility." ”
Lin Ye was stunned for a moment, and then understood what this Teacher Xu meant.
If the antique is broken when the two parties take over, then whose responsibility is it to blame, whether it is not picked up or not delivered?
If it is placed on the table like this, if it is smashed, it is the responsibility of the person who started it.
In case there is something wrong with your heart, let go of your hand in advance when you deliberately hand it over, and it will be even more unclear.
Because the price of antiques is not good, it may only be worth 20,000 yuan, and people will ask for 100,000 yuan, after all, it is difficult to buy people like it.
Thinking of these, Lin Ye's professional recognition of this teacher Xu was a little higher.
After about ten minutes, Teacher Xu took back the magnifying glass, looked up at Lin Ye and asked, "How long has this porcelain vase been transmitted?" ”
"It's not very clear, it's been in my grandfather's hands since I was there, and I heard that my grandfather bought it from someone else's grandfather's generation." Lin Ye said nonsense.
"That's it, then your grandfather bought it right, although there is no carving under this porcelain bottle, but there are painters from the glaze, including the blue and white patterns on it are the style of the Ming Dynasty, this is the blue and white dragon and phoenix live ring amphora of the Ming Dynasty, although it is not fired in the official kiln, but it is also a fine product in the folk song."
Lin Ye was still a little apprehensive at first, because he knew that the porcelain of the ancient official kiln was carved and made by a certain dynasty, but the vase he got back did not have, so he was afraid that the experts would not be able to determine the dynasty.
It seems that this Teacher Xu has real skills.
"Teacher Xu, how much is this worth?" Lin Ye asked a question of concern.
"A few years ago at an auction in the capital, a pair of blue and white dragon and phoenix amphorae of the Jiajing Dynasty were finally sold for 16.4 million, you are not an official kiln, the value will be much lower, and there is only one, but conservative estimates, two or three million is no problem."
Lin Ye's eyes lit up, one was two or three million, and there was another one at home, and the price of a pair could go up a little, at least five million.
"This kind of good object, if you can, continue to collect, but if Xiaoyou wants to make a move, our company will hold a porcelain auction next month, and Xiaoyou can hand it over to our company for auction."
"Are there any requirements for handing it over to your company for auction?"
"Haha, what Xiaoyou said, you handed over such a good thing to our company to help our company make a name, and the appraisal fee can be waived for you, but Xiaoyou, you have to sign an agreement to confirm that it will be auctioned by our company, and then you only need to pay a deposit of 50,000 yuan."
"Still have to pay 50,000 yuan?"
Lin Ye hesitated, he didn't have so much money on him.
"Teacher Xu, can't you wait until this porcelain vase is auctioned off before giving it away?"
"This is the company's regulations, some Tibetan friends suddenly regretted not bidding before the auction started, but the company has already publicized it, so it will affect the company's reputation, so you need to pay a deposit."
Teacher Xu explained very carefully, Lin Ye nodded, he didn't know much about the specific operation of the auction house, but what Teacher Xu said was still very reasonable.
"Teacher Xu, I don't have that much money on me now, I'll go back and think about it."
"Go back and think about it?" Teacher Xu frowned and reminded: "According to our company's regulations, if you don't make a decision now, you will have to pay an appraisal fee, even if you decide to hand over something to our company later, this appraisal fee will not be refunded." ”
"I can accept that."
I can't take out 50,000 yuan, but Lin can still afford the appraisal fee of 2,000 yuan, besides, millions will be in hand soon, and 2,000 yuan is nothing.
Putting the bottle back into the box, Lin Ye carefully carried the box out of the company, and when he arrived at the elevator, there was a man holding a wooden box standing at the elevator.
Lin Ye and the other party glanced at each other, and the man smiled and said, "Little brother is also here to identify antiques?" ”
"yes, it's just a fake."
Lin Ye deliberately showed an annoyed expression, he still understood the truth that wealth is not exposed, although the society is relatively stable now, but the heart of guarding against people is indispensable.
"That's a pity, but the collection of this line, in addition to eyesight must also have a background and experience, I have been playing porcelain for more than ten years, and I have been eye-catching many times, until this time I saw the pearl and received a good object."
The man had irrepressible joy on his face, and he didn't wait for Lin Ye to continue asking, he just said to himself: "Some time ago, I went to the antique stall and saw a piece of porcelain, the stall owner didn't know the goods, but I know it, there is a one in the Forbidden City that is exactly the same as this one, and I only bought it for a thousand yuan." ”
The man told how he fought with the stall owner, but Lin Ye muttered in his heart when he listened, can you still encounter antiques at the level of the Forbidden City?
"You don't believe it, Mr. Chen has identified it for me just now, and there is no doubt that it is genuine, saying that I am well-informed, of course, there is also an element of luck, and those experts who think it is a fake, it is not enough knowledge."
As soon as he heard this, Lin Ye was a little curious, other experts identified it as a fake, and here it was identified as a real antique, this kind of face-slapping plot is very attractive.
"Brother, can you tell me no?"
"Absolutely." The man was obviously identified as a fake by other experts, and this time it was authentic, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and he couldn't hold back his words for a long time.
"To play collecting, first of all, you have to go to various museums to have a long view, I have seen all the museums in the north and south of the country over the years, especially the collections of the Palace Museum, I can recall it with my eyes closed."
"Once I was in an antique street, I saw a porcelain bowl, exactly the same as in the Forbidden City, the ancients fired porcelain, it is impossible to burn one by one, it is a batch, especially porcelain bowls, I suspected at the time, this may be the original palace flowed out."
"Later, I bargained with the stall owner, and the stall owner sold me a thousand yuan."
"Brother, since it is used by the royal family, it must be very exquisite, so the stall owner has not gone to identify it himself?"
"The stall owner didn't know the goods, and when he saw the words on the base, he decided that it was a modern handicraft."
Lin Ye was a little curious, and asked, "What words are engraved on the base?" ”
"Microwave oven only."
The corners of Lin Ye's mouth twitched, the microwave oven is special, so no wonder the stall owner thinks it is a modern handicraft, oh no, this is a modern handicraft.
"Could it be that this pedestal was added by later generations? In fact, the real base is wrapped? ”
Lin Ye thought of the plot of reading some precious famous paintings hidden in fake paintings in the novels before, if you want to say that, this big brother is really a big leak.
"How can there be such a mysterious thing, the base is those words, just now Mr. Chen said, this is the Ming Dynasty Wei Gaozong's royal porcelain bowl. Those experts don't know that it's because this Wei Gaozong doesn't like to be an emperor, so he chose the Zen throne on the second day of his succession and then became a monk, and his Dharma name is Bo Furnace. ”
"You think, the emperor must not be able to spread the word when he became a monk, there are examples in the Qing Dynasty, isn't Emperor Shunzhi a monk, and there is no record in the history books, and this batch of porcelain was secretly fired by JDZ for this micro Gaozong at that time."
"You see, the normal official kiln is engraved under the annual system of a certain emperor, but Wei Gaozong wants to keep it secret, and he can't use the annual system, so he can only be carved into a microwave oven."
"This matter is not in the history books, and Mr. Chen also saw an ancient book of the Ming Dynasty by chance, so he knew about these things."
Lin Ye: ......
Can you still play like this?
No longer understands history, Lin Ye also knows that this old brother has been fooled and stupid.
Damn, I've met a liar.
Lin Ye also reacted, that Teacher Xu actually had many flaws in his words, and the biggest flaw was the categorical disconnection.
I was holding a vase from a parallel world, how could I be on the same page as the Ming Dynasty, but I was blinded by huge interests and ignored this.
Introspective!
