Chapter 177: Northeast Again

This style of cup is called the hand cup, which originated from the Song Dynasty: the cup mouth is flat, the cup edge is skimmed outward, the upper abdomen is vertical, the lower wall is adducted, thick with a few traces of delicacy, dignified and a little dexterous.

The inside and outside are glazed, and there are only two blue and white patterns on the edge of the mouth in the cup, but the outside of the cup is covered with patterns: a twined branch lotus pattern connected by a row, separated by a wave pattern in the middle, the flower blooms with six petals, and the regular script of the size of six rice grains can be vaguely seen: Yongle year system of the Ming Dynasty.

Good guys, Yongle blue and white entwined branch lotus pattern pressure cup?

As long as you know a little bit about blue and white knowledge, you will know that this thing is fake. Because there is only one such hand cup in the world, which is now treasured in the Forbidden City.

Collectors who know how to do it take a second look: the Yuanmeng legacy of the Yongle period is still relatively strong, and the pattern is definitely not so delicate...... But looking at the shape and pattern, typical Ming Dynasty style, it feels like imitation after Yongle?

Take a closer look: Oh, the imitation after Jiajing.

Yes, it can be regarded as a good object with a relatively open door, even if it is a private kiln, there are still three or five hundred thousand.

If the level is higher and reaches the level of Wu Weimin, you will be unable to stop doubting: the thing seems to be right, but this bag of pulp is too thick, like scraping putty?

Even if it's every day, it's not a hundred and eighty years, don't want to reach this level.

But who has nothing to do and plays with a cup every day?

When you think about it this way, the vigilance will naturally be infinitely raised, and you will not be able to see that it is the latter pulp, but it will also be classified as "inaccurate".

It is only at the level of scholars like Zhengzheng that experts who are quite authoritative in porcelain can see that this is a modern imitation of Yongle blue and white in Jiajing with ancient methods.

In short, more than 90% of players will be fooled by such a gadget......

So I think it's quite interesting: big companies don't dare to say it, just pack it casually, and the auction of small companies is still not difficult. Without too much effort, Qu Yanan can earn three or five hundred thousand.

But she gave it to Gao Shengdong?

Of course, at most, it is to gossip about the relationship between the two, and the reason why Li Dingan is strange is because the more he looks at it, the more he feels: The old method of this thing is very similar to the blue and white plate that the Anti-Smuggling Bureau has seen.

It's not just like, it's more advanced...... It feels like the same group of people made it, but the technology has been upgraded. And the degree of fidelity is higher, between the blue and white plate and the copper glaze flower pot.

What's more, porcelain, glaze, and even the shape and pattern can be so similar?

Anyway, after being in the antique industry for so long, it can be so realistic, or it is the artificial porcelain forged by traditional methods, and Li Ding'an has seen it for the first time.

So he looked very carefully, and his demeanor was very focused.

Qu Yanan's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, half joking and half serious: "The junior likes it very much, why don't I give you one too?" ”

Li Dingan subconsciously raised his head: "Miss Qu has a lot?" ”

"I only have two hand cups, and this is one of them, but I have a lot of friends...... also blamed her for not having enough eyesight, so she received several pieces...... Anyway, it's not worth much, Senior Brother Li wants to like it, next time I come back, I'll bring you one. ”

In fact, it is still quite valuable, it is not only a handicraft, but also a handicraft that can be fake, and there are still 18,000 yuan.

But this is the ...... of the meeting

"Miss Qu is polite!" Li Dingan shook his head, "I take the liberty of asking, where did your friend get it from?" ”

"I don't know the specifics, but her home is in the Northeast, and it is estimated that she is there to find ......" Qu Yanan smiled, "If you are interested, I can help you ask." ”

The Northeast again?

The few I saw in the Anti-Smuggling Bureau were brought back from the Northeast......

Li Ding'an's heart jumped slightly, and he almost didn't think twice: "Then please ask Senior Sister, this is my phone number......"

Qu Yanan was stunned for a moment, and then pouted: This person is too practical?

called him a junior for a night, but he always called himself "Miss Qu", and suddenly changed his words?

After remembering the phone, Li Dingan thought about it again: "Senior sister, when is it convenient, can you let me take a look at the other one?" ”

Haha, here it is......

Waited all night, isn't that what it's for?

Qu Yanan's spirits perked: "As long as the junior has time, he can do it at any time!" ”

As she spoke, she bit her lip again, stretched her waist, and her eyes were watery......

After a while, Gao Shengdong had goosebumps all over his body, and waited until he blinked his eyelids to look again: Well, dazzling?

"Thank you so much, Senior Sister Qu...... Well, Senior Brother Gao, lend me this one to study first! ”

The eyes and hearts are full of antique porcelain, how can I care to see if this woman is discharging indiscriminately. While his mouth was still talking, Li Dingan grabbed the cup and went to the sofa to pick up the bag.

Before Qu Yanan came back to his senses, he had already opened the door: "Senior Brother Gao, Senior Sister Qu, you talk first...... Sister-in-law, I have something to do, so I'll go first......"

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

As soon as Gao Shengdong's lover chased out of the kitchen, he heard a "knock", and looked again, where was Li Ding'an's shadow in the living room?

On the side, Gao Shengdong was only slightly stunned, but Qu Yanan opened his mouth half-open: there was still a bit of charm on his face, but his smile seemed to be frozen......

It's too much, and I've got it all over here...... Are you deaf or blind?

Seeing that her expression was not natural, as if she was still showing a little dissatisfaction, Gao Shengdong explained with a smile: "Don't be surprised, those who engage in research are like this...... Just like Professor Wu! ”

"Oh!"

Qu Yanan pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly, squeezed out a smile, and stood up again: "Sister-in-law, Senior Brother Gao, it's too late, I should leave too!" ”

"Shengdong, send Yanan ......"

"No hassle, the driver is downstairs ......"

Trying to be polite, Qu Yanan went downstairs with a complaint, and he had already scolded in his heart:

Blind......

Wood......

Lack of heart......

It seems that there is nowhere to go, and the sound of high heels is extraordinarily loud, resounding throughout the community.

"Bang ......"

On Daben, she closed the car door hard, and her voice was also very cold, "Go back to Sihe Shangyuan!" ”

The driver nodded, didn't even dare to answer, and started the car again......

It was close to ten o'clock, the road was relatively smooth, and it took more than half an hour to arrive at the place.

This is a very famous high-end community in the capital, to the south is the Caishikou, to the north is the Xuanwu Gate and the Peace Gate. It is not far from Tiananmen Square and the National Museum, just across the street.

Looking from the bottom up, there are no lights on in the room, and the curtains are still drawn, and the black hole is empty. But Qu Yanan knew that Feng Xiaoning definitely hadn't slept yet.

Sure enough, as soon as she arrived at the door, she heard the sound of the TV.

opened the door, turned on the light, and threw off his high heels, Qu Yanan sat on the sofa with a chirp.

Feng Youning glanced at her in surprise: "Come back so early?" I finally met someone, didn't talk much? ”

"What are you talking about? You cast the wrong bait, and he won't take the bait at all......"

"Oh?"

Feng Xiaoning suddenly became interested and turned off the TV, "Let's talk about it!" ”

"That's a blind ......"

The more Qu Yanan thought about it, the more angry she became, and she gushed endlessly.

Feng Xiaoning slowly narrowed his eyes.

Who said he didn't take the bait?

It's okay if you don't like money, but it doesn't matter if it's a woman or something else, as long as there's something that interests him, that's enough.

For the rest, take your time......

……

"Knock-knock-knock, knock-knock-knock......"

Who's beating the drums...... No, who's knocking on the door?

There is also a rhythm of thieves, and the drum beat of the authentic Tokoyama drum......

Li Dingan opened his eyes in a daze, picked up his mobile phone and glanced at it.

Seven or eight didn't answer, all of them were called by Lei Azhen?

Bastard...... It's really time to come, just squinted, and it hasn't been more than an hour?

He reluctantly rolled out of bed and opened the door barefoot.

"If I hadn't heard the phone ring, I would have thought you were going out to pick up girls behind my back...... Well? ”

muttered in his mouth, just about to enter the door, Lei Ming was really shocked, "I'm going to ...... it"

His hair was messy like a chicken's nest, his chin was covered with stubble, and his eyes were bloodshot...... I feel like I haven't seen him for a few days, and Li Dingan seems to be seven or eight years old......

"Broken out?"

Lei Ming really looked at him vigorously, "Did you break up with Senior Sister Yu, or did your Mr. Chen run away with someone?" ”

"What's the?"

Li Ding'an pulled him in, fell into the sofa again, and kept yawning, "Try not sleeping for two days and two nights?" ”

"It's ...... Fought for two days and nights? Hi yo...... Become a real man! ”

He rubbed his hands excitedly, "This can't be a drink?" ”

Li Ding'an threw over a pillow: "My man, you have a face!" ”

Before, he was just a casual observer, Zhang Hanguang didn't give him a chance to learn more about it at all, and the police were even more unlikely to let him bring out the evidence. Li Dingan stayed in the office and studied for several days, but at most he was a light soldier on paper.

Suddenly seeing the real thing, it is natural to find a treasure, and as a result, this research cannot be stopped.

No matter how you study it, this thing seems to be the traditional soil ratio, the traditional tire making technique, the traditional method of glazing, and the traditional method of coloring...... But what is burned out is an ancient porcelain with a similarity of nearly eighty percent?

If you remove the old steps such as removing the fire, peeling, and pulping in the back, this is a piece of Ming blue and white...... Because of the use of instruments to determine the dynasty, the fetal quality and release quality are indeed from the Ming Dynasty.

If it's just a mud tire, it's easy to understand: the broken porcelain of the Ming Dynasty is smashed and re-molded, and then tested with an instrument, and the results of Ming porcelain will still be obtained. But this is on the premise of not re-entering the furnace and not re-firing.

If it is burned again, the C molecule will be re-oxidized, and no matter what you measure, it can only be new...... But it's a finished thing, so how did the guys do it?

For two days and two nights, I ran various tests during the day, and deduced various formulas and steps at night...... Where is the time to sleep?

And the more he studied, the stronger his intuition became: if he figured this thing out, it would definitely be a big project that was not inferior to pearl glaze...... The kind of national jackpot that gets a soft hand.

In the hands of lawbreakers, a book of profit is a hairy ...... Whether it's playing fans or robbing banks, they all kneel down and shout dad.

But just this one thing, just by making C-14, a cup will be broken down cleanly...... So even though he hadn't slept for two days and two nights, and his brain cells were about to burn dry, he still hadn't figured out any useful clues.

"No, that's not normal, isn't it?"

Smelling the smell of smoke on his body, Lei Mingzhen also guessed that he had been doing research all night long, and couldn't help pouting, "It's a big holiday, didn't you make an appointment with your two girlfriends?" ”

Li Dingan glared at him and didn't speak.

I can't figure it out after researching, about the girlfriend of the yarn?

Including his parents who wanted to come to the capital, they were all persuaded by him.

Before, I was mainly afraid of insecurity: if what Hanguang said was true, then I should try to have as little contact as possible in the short term, and I would not be affected by myself.

And now, he has completely lost time: really, if he doesn't study it, he can't sleep well if he wants to.

Of course, it is not necessary to understand all the technological processes and counterfeiting methods, as long as you can figure out a few key points: for example, what methods did this group of people use to deceive high-precision scientific instruments?

It's a pity that there are too few physical objects, if only I could get a few more...... Subconsciously, Qu Yanan's face appeared in Li Dingan's mind.

But I remember she said that it seems that there is only one hand cup with the same hand, and she can't experiment a few times at all.

Where can I get some more?

Looking for Zhang Hanguang......

was wandering out of the world, Lei Mingzhen stabbed him again: "Lao Lei also specially asked me to call you to dinner, and then help him look at something by the way." But looking at your bird, you can't go......"

"Nonsense, don't you want to open your tired eyes without looking at me? You're not going to move your big head and bring things over? ”

"You think I'm you?" Lei Ming really sneered, "Lao Lei called several times, but you didn't answer, I knew that it would be hopeless to call you kid to dinner, so I brought things to ......"

He pulled into his trouser pocket again and pulled out a palm-sized box, "This is it, what is it called...... Lao Lei said to help him take a good look, and the next time he returns the gift, it will be easy to estimate......"

Li Ding'an looked disgusted: "I know it's porcelain, do you dare to take it like this?" ”

"Nonsense, I don't have a card for the underground garage, do you expect me to walk a kilometer with a box of more than 20 pounds, are you tired?"

"Why aren't you tired when you hold a two-hundred-pound girl to be up?"

"Fart, more than 100 pounds, buddy's eyes are not slanted......"

The two were arguing, Li Ding'an opened the box again, and just glanced at it, he gasped.

At first glance, it is a small white porcelain wine cup: less than three centimeters high, about four centimeters in diameter, the whole body is bright white, warm and moist like jade.

If you look closely, you can faintly see that there are dark engraved patterns under the release surface, and they are extremely thin. Through the body of the cup, you can even see the shadow reflected by the fingers behind the porcelain wall.

What porcelain egg cup, should be called egg white jade, as the name suggests, is "the wall of the cup is as thin as an egg shell, and white like jade" meaning.

It is also called sweet white glaze, which was first seen in the Yongle period, imitating the porcelain egg curtain cup of the Song Dynasty, but because of the incomplete inheritance of techniques, it can only be imitated to the extent of semi-rebirth, and it is known as "Yongle Sweet White" in history.

And the Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup, which is hundreds of millions of dollars in one shot, is colored and glazed on the basis of this thing.

So you don't have to look carefully, Li Dingan can guess that this one is also imitation, otherwise it would be Lei Yuzhang who came, not this stupid big guy who didn't know the severity.

Take a look at past auction prices:

In 2017, Christie's Hong Kong Island auctioned a Ming Yongle sweet white glazed dark flower pomegranate open jade pot spring vase, which sold for 27 million.

In 2019, Sotheby's New York auctioned a Ming Yongle sweet white glaze engraved Baizi He Chun skimming bowl, which sold for 2.6 million US dollars, or 18 million.

The year before last, in the spring auction of Poly Beijing, a bottle with a sweet white glaze secretly engraved with a lotus pattern was sold for 44 million yuan......

Looking at the transaction price, you can see that this thing is rising every year, although this one is small, but if it is true, five or six million is not a problem.

It must be imitated, but I don't know when it was imitated......

Turning his mind, Li Dinganzai looked at it carefully.

It seems to be the style of the Apocalypse, so it is still from the Ming Dynasty. The price may fall a lot, but there are still millions......

Well, that's not right...... This pack of pulp is made later!

His pupils shrunk: yes, it's definitely the slurry that was made later.

But the technique is almost the same as Gao Shengdong's cup.

"Where did it come from?"

"I said that the supplier sent it!"

"Where did the supplier come from?"

"Oh, I heard it was from the Northeast...... Spent more than a million ......"

The Northeast again?
