Chapter 55: Kangxi Three Treasure Furnace

"Miss Ming, this is the Kangxi Three Treasure Furnace you want!"

"Authentic cloisonné enamel, national ritual heavy weapon, please put your hands on the eyes!"

At the moment, a fat guy came out with a huge wooden box and placed it on the table carefully.

When the wooden box was opened, a fragrance came out, and the bottom was wrapped in yellow silk, which was very valuable.

As soon as it was opened, it attracted everyone's attention, and the surrounding guests also gathered around.

"What a beautiful incense burner, this pattern carving is superb, I don't know how much it costs?"

"I heard that it is a palace weapon, it is estimated that it is no less than tens of millions."

The onlookers were talking, and they were obviously attracted by this thing.

Ming Qiulan was also a little happy, she didn't expect this order to be so exquisite, if she gave it to her grandfather, she would definitely have face.

Jiang Ge and Long Ye glanced at each other, feeling that something was wrong.

Because since this fat pig-like guy came, the atmosphere has suddenly become warm, and the people around him are all talking a lot of good things.

It's a very killing feeling.

"Something is wrong, you see that although these people are complimenting, there is a sense of exaggeration, but their eyes do not have the feeling of being shocked by the exquisiteness of things at all."

Long Ye whispered to Jiang Ge.

"Do you suspect that these are the warm-up people, just to show this young lady?"

Jiang Ge nodded, also guessing.

The antique industry itself has many routines, and it is common to ask actors to set off the atmosphere, creating a sense of urgency for the guests, and sometimes the guests are still confused after paying, and they don't know how to make a deal.

That's what gets pushed up by the atmosphere around you.

Right now, there is such a suspicion.

Listening to the praise of the guests around her, Ming Qiulan seemed even more happy, but she didn't forget to check, so she looked at Jiang Ge, "Please help me take a look, I don't understand much." ”

"Who is this...?"

The fat man's eyes were a little surprised.

"Oh, this is what I asked to help me with." Ming Qiulan replied.

"Dare to ask Your Excellency's name, where do you settle?" Obese middle-aged people deliberately bottomed out.

"Jiang Ge, not long after entering the industry, he just met Miss Ming in the hall and was pulled to save the scene." Jiang Ge is neither humble nor arrogant, he has not reported the bottom, if this thing is not good, it is a job to offend people, and there is no need to give the old bottom to others.

The fat man also smiled when he heard this, and his heart suddenly worried, "Then please ask Mr. Jiang to palm your eyes, and I will wait for Xingyi to lick as a first-class treasure connoisseur of Tonggufang." ”

"Fortunately, I will be lucky!"

Jiang Ge clenched his fists, then picked up a pair of gloves and began to check.

This set of incense burners is very Ming and Qing Dynasty style, patterns and patterns are complementary, due to long-term staining of incense ash, with a strong sandalwood fragrance.

The carcass is smooth and thin, the filigree lines are smooth, and the artistic taste is obviously inferior to that of the late Qing Dynasty, but it is also of the highest grade.

There are three bronze feet at the bottom, carved dragons and phoenixes, it is indeed a palace style, he opened his red pupils and saw the thick breath of time wrapped on it, it is obvious that there are not hundreds of years that cannot reach this.

"This Three Treasure Furnace is a national treasure from the Eagle Sauce Country, a national treasure that was exiled in the Qing Dynasty, and I spent a lot of effort to buy it back."

"The original owner, Viscount Karl, the down-and-out Viscount of the Eagle Sauce Country, his ancestors were employees of the East India Company back then, and they participated in the invasion of the capital by the Eight-Nation Alliance, and this Three Treasure Furnace was lost at that time."

"The origin of this thing is clear, everything is well documented, it has been inherited for a hundred years, and there is no doubt about the absolute authenticity."

With the help of Jiang Ge's palm, Hou Xingyi began to introduce the origin, and his tone was calm, like a few treasures.

But Jiang Ge didn't take it seriously at all, he took care of himself and looked carefully, for fear of letting go of a little loophole.

Speaking of which, even if he has red pupils, he doesn't dare to say 100% sure, grandpa once said, "Eyes can deceive people, red pupils can only see the bottom but can't help people decide, and Lord Yama also has times when his mind wanders." ”

"Mr. Jiang, are you optimistic, there is no problem, right?"

At this time, Ming Qiulan couldn't wait, and she also wore gloves to gently caress this delicate work of art.

Gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times!

In this day and age, a treasure of beauty like this is hard to come by.

"Beautiful, so beautiful."

"That's it, my grandpa will love it."

"This gift must be special!"

Ming Qiulan muttered to herself as she spoke, her eyes full of little stars.

Women are usually unable to refuse beautiful things.

At this time, Long Ye also approached, "I'll take a look!" ”

He was about to put on a pair of gloves, apparently aware of it

Hou Xingyi stopped him, "This is a valuable item, and you can't get your hands on it if you don't buy it." ”

"This is my friend, and he's here to help me with my eyes." Ming Qiulan hurriedly said, wishing that Master Long would get started.

The fat man was helpless, so he could only pose as please.

"How is it, Xiao Jiang, do you see something?" Long Ye asked.

"I'm still watching, I'm not sure."

At this time, Jiang Ge already had eyebrows, he was almost deceived by this thing just now, if it weren't for the fact that the red pupil found a small bubble at the mouth of the furnace, he almost miscalculated.

Cloisonné enamel, also known as cloisonné.

Started in the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty, it is also known as copper tire cloisonné enamel, also called enamel.

On the finished copper tire shape, the soft flat copper wire is used to pinch into various patterns and weld it, and then the colorful enamel dots are filled in the pattern, and finally fired in the furnace, and then polished after the furnace, and finally gilded.

This cloisonné enamel, both in terms of craftsmanship and level, is very similar to the style of the Qing Dynasty.

The moment he saw this Kangxi Three Treasure Furnace, Jiang Ge was also shocked by its beauty.

However, it was found that although the surface of this enamel is exquisite, in fact, there are flaws inside, and the craftsmanship of the entire inner ring is worse than the outside, which is caused by the immaturity of the process in the embryonic link, and this kind of mistake cannot occur in the official kiln of the Qing Dynasty.

Not even the slightest mistake can become a royal weapon.

However, for the sake of insurance, he decided to take a closer look and find more evidence.

"This manufacturing level is obviously from the Qing Dynasty, it is not a high imitation, it is also an old object, and the degradation of modern cloisonné enamel technology may not necessarily reach such a standard."

"It should be the real thing, I'll take a look!"

After some checking, Long Ye already had a bottom in his heart.

Ming Qiulan next to her was even more happy when she heard this, and hurriedly asked, "Master Hou, how much is this thing?" ”

"I don't know about this, I have to ask the manager, but I estimate that it is not less than 10 million."

Hearing that Ming Qiulan finally asked the price, Hou Xingyi was obviously excited, but he didn't say a clear price.

Some of the rich people next to him started talking about it when they heard it,

"It's only 10 million, it's still a palace enamel treasure, so I just want it."

"Manager Hou, it's better to sell it to me, I'll pay 12 million."

"Fifteen million for me."

The wealthy people around seemed very excited, and seemed to be completely attracted by the beauty of this thing, and some of the new guests were also attracted to this place.

Ming Qiulan was anxious when she heard this, "Master Hou, hurry up and ask for the price, I gave it to my grandfather to celebrate his birthday, you can't sell it to others." ”

"Don't worry, you have the right of first refusal to buy this item, if you don't give it to someone else."

Hou Xingyi hurriedly comforted Ming Qiulan, looked at the people around him and said,

"Everyone, this item has been booked by Miss Ming, I have other treasures in Tonggufang, if you like enamelware, you can consult me later."

After saying that, he turned around and went upstairs to ask for the price.

The Long Ye next to him frowned again, always feeling that something was wrong.
