Chapter 387: The Legend of the Furnace

"Mr. Chen, what are you...... Why do you suddenly make such a big gift? ”

Suddenly, someone bowed to him and said that he was going to knock one, and Boss Li was so frightened that he retreated again and again.

But Chen Yanguang still made a solid 90-degree bow.

There is only one sentence missing, "private Marseille", and there is the spirit of craftsmanship.

"Boss Li, you can afford this gift." Zhang Yang explained with a smile next to him, "This white marble bowl is the handicraft produced by Mr. Chen's wife's mother's family. ”

"Crafts? Impossible. ”

Although Boss Li was still skeptical, his tone was much weaker than before.

After all, Chen Yanguang would not come here for no reason.

He directly opened the window, picked up the jade bowl from the Han Dynasty and handed it to Chen Yanguang.

"Mr. Chen, take a closer look?"

"I bought it from an old man on the construction site next to the hotel, and the man looked quite honest, and the bowl was still stained with mud at the time, saying that it had just been dug up."

"That old man should be the salesman of our group." Chen Yanguang took the jade bowl and said, "Boss Li, I can't hide it, the antique imitation industry in China has not been good in recent years, and my father-in-law's family was also forced to have no choice, so I recruited some salesmen to tell you stories." ”

"But don't worry, my daughter-in-law's uncle and her grandfather, who are the masterminds behind this fraud, have been sent to prison."

Boss Li: "......"

The confusion on his face was palpable.

Who am I? Where am I? Mr. Chen, what are you talking about?

Also, did I really buy this room full of collections?

Seeing him like this, Chen Yanguang was very ashamed and said, "Boss Li, how much did it cost to buy this?" I'll give you the money back. ”

Poof, there was a sound of a knife stabbing into the flesh, but unfortunately no blood spilled out.

"No, no." Boss Li held his heart with his left hand, and his right hand hurriedly swayed back and forth in front of him.

He couldn't hold it anymore.

Zhang Yang felt that if he continued to talk, Boss Li's health was worrying, so he quickly pulled Chen Yanguang to his side.

He took the jade bowl in his hand and put it back in the cupboard.

Zhang Yang changed the topic and said, "Eh, Boss Li, didn't you say that you also have a lot of incense burners?" Let's take a look now? ”

"Incense burner...... All right. Boss Li said in a weak tone, "I'll show you the way." ”

……

Zhang Yang and Chen Yanguang followed behind Boss Li and slowly walked to the next room.

The two walked behind, for fear that one of the old men in front of them would accidentally fall directly.

But fortunately, he is recovering well.

It is estimated that the real Buddha statues in the living room gave Boss Li confidence, and by the time he started to look at the incense burner, his volume had basically returned to normal.

"In this room, there is my collection of incense burners from all dynasties."

Boss Li didn't sell it this time, he went around the room directly, turned on all the lights, and then made a gesture of please.

"Mr. Chen, Director Zhang, please do it."

"I'll sit here and take my breath."

"Okay, then you can rest for a while." Zhang Yang nodded, and his gaze had shifted to the window next to him.

The situation in the incense burner room is completely different from the jade room, at least in terms of authenticity, it is already the level of a professional collector.

The only problem is that things are placed in an unorganized manner, and they are placed together, and the incense burners of different eras, real and fake, are placed together.

made Zhang Yang have to identify them one by one.

Because Boss Li was recuperating, Zhang Yang cooperated very well and did not make a sound, silently admiring the exquisite antiques.

Zhang Yang didn't speak, he understood it himself.

But Chen Yanguang was embarrassed.

In terms of porcelain, Chen Yanguang can still point out the country, and the incense burner really can't see the reason.

After hesitating for a while, Chen Yanguang walked behind Zhang Yang restlessly and muttered in a low voice, "Brother Yang, how is it?" ”

"Yes, there are quite a few high-quality products." Zhang Yang nodded and continued to walk forward silently.

"Oh, that'...... Then you say, will I be angry with Boss Li just now? Chen Yanguang found a topic.

"Definitely." Zhang Yang stopped and nodded, "You obviously said kowtow, but you bowed there." ”

"It's like sending him back to the West, who can stand it?"

"I said knock, don't you." Chen Yanguang lowered his voice and said, "I think he has recovered now, so are these copper furnaces real or not, do you want to tell him later?" ”

"If he asks or not, I definitely won't take the initiative to tell him."

As soon as Zhang Yang's words fell, Boss Li's voice sounded behind the two.

"Director Zhang, Mr. Chen, if there is a problem with something, you don't have to hide it from me."

"Let's be straight, no matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than my jade carriages."

"I didn't hide it from you." Zhang Yang turned around and said with a smile, "It's Mr. Chen, he said, you have too many good things here, let me recommend a few pieces of value preservation, and ask you to cut your love later." ”

"Really?" Boss Li asked suspiciously.

Just now he didn't believe he had bought a fake;

Now he doesn't believe there's the real thing in this room.

"It's more real than real gold." Chen Yanguang echoed, casually lit three incense burners in the air and said, "I just plan to choose one of these three." ”

"Did you make the final choice?" Boss Li asked with blazing eyes.

"Uh...... Brother Yang, which one did you just say? ”

"I have a bad memory, so I forgot about it."

"This one." Zhang Yang turned around decisively, pointed to the Boshan furnace in front of him just now and said, "The three pieces you chose are almost meaningless, let's buy the best if we want to buy them." ”

It's not that Zhang Yang doesn't want to follow Chen Yanguang's words, but the three items he ordered are all fakes.

Maybe this is the son-in-law of the Hedong Group, the chosen son, the luck has reached this point, and it is a fake at any finger.

"Is the Boshan Furnace real?" Boss Li was also interested, and came over with a smile.

"Director Zhang, this is the Boshan furnace of the Han Dynasty, right?"

"That's right." Zhang Yang nodded, "I saw the little figure on this, the carving is a hunting map, which is a very common pattern in the Han Dynasty." ”

"Imagine that after lighting incense in this stove, smoke comes out of these cracks, and the entire mountain ornament is bathed in smoke, just like a real fairy mountain, and interestingly, there are hunters in the fairy mountain......"

"It's a wonderland indeed." Boss Li admired with satisfaction while imagining.

"Awesome." Chen Yanguang's words broke the atmosphere.

"Boss Li, do you want to sell this?"

"Hehe, thanks to Mr. Chen, I don't sell this thing." Boss Li smiled, this was the first time he had laughed since he came out of the jade storage room.

After all, he was a good businessman, and he immediately changed his mind.

Instead of dwelling on which ones are real and which ones are fake, it is better to pan for gold in the sand and only look for the real thing.

His gaze quickly returned to Zhang Yang's face:

"Director Zhang, help me see, can you find a representative genuine product from these stoves in the order of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties?"

"I'll make a whole set."

"Oh? That's an idea. Zhang Yang himself had never thought of this kind of collection idea.

The incense burner is a kind of metal ware for special purposes, and it is really a little bit, which slowly changed in various dynasties, and finally gradually evolved into what everyone remembers.

It was first gradually evolved from the bronze tripod of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and it was not until the Boshan furnace of the Han Dynasty that it was officially independent and became a special-purpose vessel.

If you follow Boss Li's way of thinking......

There must be no doubt about the Han Dynasty, it is the Boshan furnace in front of you.

In the Tang Dynasty, the incense burner of Tang Sancai must be the most representative.

But Boss Li only had metal utensils in this room, and Zhang Yang searched for a long time, and finally locked a good Tang Dynasty incense burner, which was made of silver and gilt.

The incense burner of the Tang Dynasty was mostly used for incense in Buddhist temples at that time, and because the Buddhist temples in the Tang Dynasty were generally rich, they used more precious metals, copper gilt and silver gilt were more common.

The silver-gilt incense burner collected by Boss Li also has the ornamentation of the chisel flower process, which is very beautiful on the whole.

In China, if the source can be clarified, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to determine a third-class cultural relic.

If the incense burner of the Tang Dynasty may have to take some effort to choose, then the incense burner of the Song Dynasty is completely a question of points.

Because from this time on, the incense burner gradually became one of the literary toys of readers, placed on the bookcase, and used to burn incense.

Unicorns, ducks, lions, and incense burners in the shape of various animals appear on the readers' desks.

Therefore, if you look for the oldest beast-shaped incense burner, you can find the Song Dynasty.

It's a bit of a pity that Zhang Yang only found a copper duck from the Southern Song Dynasty here with Boss Li, which is unsatisfactory.

It is said that an expert once estimated the price of this duck-shaped incense burner at 1 million.

Although the market price is not worth so much, but from the perspective of the number of surviving people alone, this kind of duck is indeed a cultural relic of the million grade, but a large part of the economic value has been transformed into the value of cultural relics.

"The ...... of the Yuan Dynasty Boss Li, you don't have it here. Zhang Yang said after looking around.

"None? Impossible. ”

"Really no, the incense burner of the Yuan Dynasty is currently seen in the Jun kiln, that is, the porcelain incense burner. I remember that there are only a few museums of metal incense burners in the Yuan Dynasty, and there are very few in circulation on the market. ”

Zhang Yang explained in great detail, and he was afraid that Boss Li would not be able to think about it.

"Is that the copper incense burner of the Yuan Dynasty sold by others in the future, and I can assume that it is fake?"

"That's pretty much it."

"As for the Ming and Qing dynasties, there's no need to look for them." Zhang Yang pointed casually, "This, this, and the first three in that row are all incense burners from the Ming and Qing dynasties." ”

"The incense burners of these two dynasties have a large number of surviving in the world, and the general ones are only 10,000 pieces."

"Then there's really no need to look for it." Boss Li nodded and said to himself, "I'll go directly to Christie's next time to auction a few expensive pieces and come back." ”

"That's the truth, but in fact, you can also come to the Hailin Light Auction."

"Oh, my, old fool." Boss Li pretended to pat his head and said, "I almost forgot that Master Zhang also has an auction." ”

……

Two days later, Zhang Yang flew to Linhai after several flights.

Originally, there were also Saudi father and daughter, but they separated in Xiangjiang.

Zhang Yang was ready to go to their home in Indonesia, but that night the old prince suddenly called and said that he had an urgent trip to China.

"Home visits" can only be temporarily cancelled.

Although Boss Li is a little regretful, there is no way.

Unexpectedly, when Zhang Yang was about to get on the plane, he met a father and daughter who were also about to board the plane.

After the old prince forcibly helped Zhang Yang upgrade the cabin, he told Zhang Yang on the plane that they went to Huaxia this time because the invested team had an accident.

Only then did Zhang Yang know that the old prince was still a shareholder of a certain team in Leyard.

I heard that it was because the tickets for the team's friendly match were not sold well, and the team and the contractor of the match quarreled.

Zhang Yang rarely watches football, and he doesn't have much in common with the old prince.

However, there are a lot of common topics with Bashail.

This girl has a very strong interest in Chinese culture, and she never stopped asking questions along the way.

even deliberately changed seats to sit next to Zhang Yang, and his enthusiasm almost made Zhang Yang have one of the four major illusions in life.

When the two separated in Xiangjiang, Basha Yier asked Zhang Yang: "Mr. Zhang, are you married?" ”

Knowing that Zhang Yang had a girlfriend, she did not have any expression of loss, but persuaded Zhang Yang: "If you become a Saudi citizen, you can marry four wives." ”

"And wives are equal to each other, you don't have to worry about conflicts between them at all, as long as you are good to everyone."

Is this implying something? Zhang Yang was a little overwhelmed.

However, Zhang Yang was still very firm, his heart was Miss Shen's, and he rejected Basha Yier's suggestion on the spot.

Back at Linhai, the truly hectic life has just begun.

Zhang Yang's biggest gain from going to Indonesia this time was not to see the salvage method of Hailao porcelain, nor to get to know the two Saudi royal families, but to reach a preliminary cooperation intention with Boss Li.

He wants to sell the other party's collectibles.

Not only Hailao porcelain, but also all kinds of antiques collected by Boss Li in Southeast Asia, including incense burners, Buddha statues, calligraphy and paintings, spices and so on.

And the way it sells is also interesting.

Boss Li's original words were:

"I'm a person who doesn't know how to collect, and I don't want my collection to fall into the hands of people who don't know how to collect, so I need your help to confirm the buyer's collection strength before I can sell my things to him."

After discussing with the person in charge of "The Gate of Huayu", for the first time in the history of the domestic antique circle, there were sellers who put forward requirements for the collector's existing collections.

In the past, it was at most a capital verification, or a test of eyesight, but now it is necessary to show Zhang Yang the collection and determine the level of collection.

There are four levels in total, with the highest being S and the lowest being C.

Of course, behind such a troublesome operation, there is a large concession.

S-class collectors, who buy antiques in the antique store of "The Gate of Jade", will be unconditionally discounted by three percent.

Grade A is 50% off, Grade B is 8% off, and Grade C is not discounted.

"Basically, 20% off can guarantee that you don't lose money."

"You can make a little profit with a 50% discount."

"As for the S-class, don't worry, I will definitely card the number of people, otherwise I will lose my life." Zhang Yang patiently explained to the barrage in the live broadcast room.

With the blessing of the banknote ability, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room has reached more than 80,000, and there are more than 40,000 viewers in the live broadcast room of "Huayu Gate".

Although most of the people came to see the excitement, the number of people in the two live broadcast rooms combined can be in the top ten of the comic ranking.

is already a TOP-level anchor.

Zhang Yang looked at the camera of the live broadcast and calmed down a little, whether he can get out of the circle and make a lot of money this time depends on this wave.

"Come, welcome to the first graded treasure friend."
