Chapter 0144 ten goods nine fake five
Judging from the style of this fish-ear vase, it should be a celadon vase from the Longquan kiln in the late Southern Song Dynasty. Authentic ones on the market are very rare. The market is filled with handicrafts fired in modern kilns. You can buy a dozen for 100 yuan.
But the Longquan bottle in front of me is indeed an old product.
Fang Feiyang has detected ancient stories here through his ability to sense things at close range.
In order not to attract too much attention from Old Man Jia behind him, Fang Feiyang did not play with it carefully like he had just "examined" the incense burner, but took a quick glance and continued to dig out other treasures in the store.
But the imprint of this ancient porcelain from the Southern Song Dynasty has been deeply imprinted on his mind. The whole body of the porcelain vase has restrained charm, the glaze is warm and moist, and the shapes are colorful. The two fish ears imitate the fish of Oujiang River, and the overall proportions are vivid.
Properly, the shoulders and upper neck should be balanced and natural.
At that moment, the image in his mind perceived that 800 years ago, the kiln workers at the foot of Liuhua Mountain in the Longquan kiln were shirtless and bronzed, covered in mud and paint, but they were happily firing kilns and making bottles.
In the blink of an eye, two genuine items have been "digged".
Fang Feiyang glanced at Su Yazhi who was absent-minded. There was a trace of anxiety on the beautiful face at the moment, and her delicate hands were still gently squeezing the antique necklace on her chest.
He secretly leaned into the beauty's ear and said: "Don't worry, I have found the target, 90% sure."
"Really?...Then we win!...What is it?"
Su Yazhi couldn't restrain herself and almost jumped for joy, ready to celebrate her victory.
Fang Feiyang hurriedly gave Su Yazhi a hand. It was still the time to celebrate the victory. He did not tell the beautiful woman that he found not only one, but two. At the same time, he humbly and low-key said that he was 90% sure, but in fact he was 100% sure in his heart.
He couldn't speak too slowly, he didn't want to be too high-profile.
Of course, Su Yazhi believed in her boyfriend's appreciation of antiques. In her heart, Fang Feiyang had never failed in antiques.
Fang Feiyang made a hissing gesture towards Su Yazhi, gave her a hidden look, and told her to keep a low profile, and continued to "Taobao" in a muffled voice.
Su Yazhi Feiyang nodded obediently and stuck out her tongue playfully.
About half an hour later, Fang Feiyang came to Old Man Jia empty-handed. Jia Fengqun seemed to be sitting leisurely on the Western mahogany chair, drinking tea slowly, but in fact, his slender eyes never left his side for a moment.
On Fang Feiyang's body.
Seeing the young man walking towards him relaxedly and naturally with a smile on his face, Jia Fengqun hurriedly put down the white porcelain teacup in his hand and asked loudly: "What's wrong? You didn't choose anyone. Do you have no confidence in yourself?"
Fang Feiyang shook his head unhurriedly and responded with a smile: "It's not that I don't have confidence, but I have already chosen it. I can't arbitrarily touch the things on the shelves without the permission of the store owner and shopkeeper.
"
Fang Feiyang's face was filled with smiles.
"Oh?...It turns out that I have already chosen it in my heart. It doesn't matter. You can take it off and let me take a look. Let's discuss and test it together, haha..."
"Okay, now that Boss Jia has spoken and it's time for the final bet, please take a look at the five items I selected to see if any of them are genuine."
Fang Feiyang took out a golden three-legged incense burner with curved ears, a Longquan kiln fish-ear vase, a bronze auspicious animal grape mirror, and a lacquered wood rouge tray with golden flowers and birds from the store shelves in one breath. It was divided into three times in total.
I took four items from the shelf and placed them in front of Boss Jia.
Jia Fengqun was immediately dumbfounded. After working on it for a long time, the boy finally chose the Quer three-legged incense burner, which almost saved the old man Jia, who had a bad heart.
Of course it was clear and obvious. This young man picked out four items in total, and two of them were genuine.
"Ahem...um...young man, do you have any basis for the four things you selected? How about you tell me your reasons?"
Boss Jia had an ugly smile on his face, but instead of admitting defeat directly, he even asked a few questions.
Fang Feiyang saw that the shop owner hadn't given up yet, so he smiled slightly and said: "Boss, do you want me to comment on the inheritance and origin of these fine antiques?... Haha, let's talk about this gilt copper first.
Incense burner, this is imported from overseas
The thing was washed with potion by the ignorant gringo, and I almost didn’t recognize it, but as far as the incense burner itself is concerned, it is indeed a good thing carefully crafted by the craftsmen of the Qing government’s manufacturing office... What do you think, old man?
Am I right?"
"As for this Longquan fish-ear bottle..." Fang Feiyang continued to elaborate on the reason for choosing it, "Although this thing exudes a particularly bright glaze color, its texture is dense. Judging from the traces of wear on the round bottom of the bottle,
Come on, it is an old product with a history of 800 years..."
At this moment, Boss Jia deflated like a deflated rubber ball!
Boss Jia probably doesn’t know that the reason why he picked four items, two of which are real and two fake, was actually done deliberately by Fang Feiyang. The purpose was not to be too outrageous. If he chose all genuine antiques in such a high-profile way, he was afraid of attracting attention.
Unnecessary trouble.
Therefore, the copper incense burner and fish-ear bottle selected by Fang Feiyang are genuine and genuine products that have been passed down for hundreds of years, while the bronze products such as the auspicious beast grape mirror and the lacquered wood tray were picked up casually for cover.
Fang Feiyang continued to speak seriously, and then "commented" on the last two items chosen - bronze and lacquer wood.
Of course, Fang Feiyang knew clearly that the last two items were fakes imitated by modern people. He used an uncertain tone and was ambiguous, meaning to tell Boss Jia that he couldn't be sure about the third item, the auspicious beast grapes. It seemed to be from the Tang Dynasty.
things, but I am not sure. The last lacquered wood rouge tray with golden flowers and birds also gives the concept of right and wrong.
At this point, Boss Jia no longer has the time to tell the young man what the origin of the auspicious beast grape mirror and the lacquered wood and gold tray are, and what is wrong with them. There is only one voice in his head, that is, he has lost.
"This little brother, you have such good eyesight!... I didn't expect that the old man has not been in the antique market for the past six months, but there is an amazing person in this circle... The old man lost this bet..."
The muscles on Old Man Jia's face trembled slightly, and the word "admit defeat" came out of his mouth with difficulty.
You must know that the two gilt copper incense burners and Longquan fish-ear bottles on the counter are not ordinary. In order to enhance the reputation of the "ten goods nine out of ten fake" store, he also thought about it before deciding to take it out. He planned to use it to promote the store.
After a period of time, it will be put on the auction market.
As a businessman who invests in antiques, he knows very well how much this gilt incense burner returned from overseas is worth. With the rise of the "return trend" in the collection world, this three-legged incense burner with curved ears can be fetched if entrusted to a well-known auction house.
The price was as high as 500,000 to 600,000 yuan. Even if it is a transaction between Tibetan friends, a consensus can be reached at more than 400,000 yuan.
And the Longquan fish-ear vase celadon is even more valuable. It has been preserved for more than 800 years in the long history, and its glaze color is still bright and new, which is very rare. As a fine ancient porcelain from a famous official kiln in the Southern Song Dynasty, this thing is
The market is about one million.
Accept the bet and admit defeat!
According to the previous bet, as long as Fang Feiyang and Su Yazhi can choose genuine products, Boss Jia will give them to them unconditionally.
For a moment of greed, Jia Fengqun gave away 1.56 million to others in the blink of an eye. For a profit-oriented businessman, this was even more uncomfortable than killing him!
Just as Jia Fengqun was desperately arranging for the store clerk to pack these two treasures, a hearty voice sounded from the door of the store:
"Hey, what's the expression on Boss Jia's face? Who owes you money, or is he still like this... Haha..."
Chapter completed!
