Chapter 377 Broken porcelain

After suddenly asking about the price of the Xuande furnace in his hand, A San did not deliberately check the change in Boss Gong's expression. It seemed that A San's inquiry just now was just an unintentional action. However, no matter outsiders like Boss Gong himself, Uncle Wang, and Jia Sidao, they knew in their hearts that A San's move just now was very successful.

At least, judging from his unreasonable methods of playing cards, he has gained a little bit of the upper hand!

"If you want to talk about Xuande Furnace, it is actually just a stove made during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty." A San deliberately pulled the topic apart and said, "In my opinion, the Ming Dynasty is still powerful. Not only did he get a lot of precious red sandalwood back, he almost brought all the red sandalwood from the world to China, but he also created fine porcelains like Doucai, and some more, that is cloisonné. Of course, these have nothing special to do with Xuande Furnace."

Maybe A San was a little far away, and Boss Gong said to A San: "A San, if you really like such a stove, how about giving this number?" In secret, Boss Gong gestured to A San's finger, but when A San saw it, his expression remained unmoved.

"I told you the truth. This thing is really not profitable." Boss Gong said with a smile, "Otherwise, I wouldn't have put it under the coffee table. If there is really profit, I wouldn't have taken action earlier."

"Boss Gong, this is true." A San said.

"That's natural. No matter what, it's not the first business between you and Ah San. Can you still make your money against your conscience?" Boss Gong said, and asked softly, "I just gave you this price, how about it? By the way, this thing is just given to Ah San. You two have no objection, right?"

This last sentence is directed at Uncle Wang and Jia Sidao.

Jia Sidao smiled bitterly in his heart. Could it be that at this time he could still say that he had an objection? After all, if Jia Sidao had no interest in Xuande Furnace, it would be fake, but he was definitely not very interested. Also, because Ah San had collected such a thing, even if it was the Xuande Furnace he picked up from under the coffee table, Jia Sidao was not going to say anything, and directly agreed to Boss Gong's statement.

Perhaps, it is precisely because he saw that Jia Sidao didn’t care much about this stove, and A San came with Jia Sidao that Boss Gong had such courage and directly chose to trade with A San, who was the last one who looked at this stove?

"20% off!" A very straightforward word popped out of A San's mouth.

"Add a little more." Boss Gong thought for a while and said, "If it is 20% off, it will be lower than my cost price. Relationships belong to relationships, and favors belong to favors. You can't let me lose money, right?"

"That's true, since Boss Gong has said that, I'll add half of it." Asan pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "This price can't be increased any more."

"Transaction." Boss Gong was also a very quick person. He immediately made a decision. Then, he seemed to be in a state of doing business. At this moment, he turned around and looked at Jia Sidao and Uncle Wang, but said with a smile: "I'll make you laugh. Haha, I'll get a few items right away, and you may be interested in things."

"Old Gong, I'm not in a hurry, you'd better serve Xiao Jia first." Uncle Wang was drinking tea leisurely and contentedly, "Of course, before that, Lao Gong, can you add a cup for me first?"

"Brother, I've neglected it. Immediately, right away," Boss Gong quickly added water to Uncle Wang, and then asked Jia Si, "Xiao Jia, there are many types of porcelain. What kind of porcelain do you like more?"

Although this inquiry is very polite, it is also very particular.

At least it shows that there must be a lot of good porcelain in the "Ciyunzhai" at this time, and there are many types, so there is room for choice. In addition, it feels quite like Jia Sidao is opening a jade shop on the Internet. In everything, ask about the customer's needs first, which makes people feel at home and has the urge to buy the next fine porcelain here. However, because of this, Jia Sidao doesn't know how to choose.

Asan, who was next to him, saw Jia Sidao's slightly thinking expression, and couldn't help but let out a funny voice, saying, "Xiao Jia, don't be fooled by Boss Gong. Although there are many types of porcelain, it is nothing more than celadon, white porcelain, etc. Or, if you talk about a specific era, it will be more suitable."

"Asan, just try your best to sabotage me." Boss Gong pretended to be a little angry. In Jia Sidao's opinion, he still had a bit of cuteness. It was like Uncle Wang just now, giving this time to Jia Sidao. By the way, Boss Gong continued to continue tea.

This kind of eBay in detail is far from comparable to the hustle and bustle of life.

"Then just make a little thing you keep in your hands." Jia Sidao said with thought, "First of all, I am just a first-hand man of porcelain. I don't know how to appreciate the things that are too expensive. If they fall into my hands, they will be buried. Secondly, my porcelain shop is about to open, so there are naturally a lot of money on hand. For the time being, I can't take too much cash. Boss Gong can't let me, because of my preference, I will trump the jade shop to you then?"

"Haha, Xiao Jia is also a funny person." Boss Gong said with a smile, and then signaled that Jia Sidao and others could wait for a while. He went up to the second floor by himself.

"Xiao Jia, what I said just now is very good." A San quickly sat next to Jia Sidao, and by the way, he also carried the Xuande furnace he had just received.

"Asan, you kid are so picking up today." Uncle Wang looked at Asan's appearance from the side and said happily. "It's not easy, it's not easy to dig out a 'leak' from that guy Old Gong's mouth."

"Otherwise, if you like it, Uncle Wang, I will just give it to you evenly?" A Sanke didn't eat this set and said happily.

The smile on Uncle Wang's face suddenly became a little embarrassed, and then he shook his head slightly, "Good boy, it's really good, Mr. Wei has someone to succeed."

In this way, even though A San's face was thicker, he felt a little red.

"I really didn't see it, you kid will blush." ​​Jia Sidao couldn't help but joke, then returned to the topic just now, and asked, "What's wrong with my words?"

But A San beat Jia Sidao, handed him a clear look, and said, "I don't know your family's background?" As he said that, regardless of the existence of Uncle Wang next to him, he leaned into Jia Sidao's ear and whispered, "But seriously, for Boss Gong, you need to squeeze him a little more, give him some surprises, or just pretend to be pitiful and gain some sympathy. Although it is not of much use, it is better than nothing."

"It turns out that you are the first trick you adopted." Jia Sidao grinned.

"Isn't it impossible for me to do this?" Asan shrugged his shoulders and said, "By the way, the price I just negotiated is not enough to turn over for the time being. Brother, should you support me?"

"No, right? How expensive is this thing?" Jia Sidao was a little surprised.

"It's not that this thing is expensive, but that I have something else in recent days." A San didn't say it specifically, and Jia Sidao didn't ask much. He nodded very directly. Among friends, this help within his ability still needs to be provided. However, what would it be if it could make A San feel that something more important is related to money?

Could it be that Ah San has a crush on something of a very valuable thing?

"Speaking of this, this Xuande furnace should make you a small profit, right?" Jia Sidao asked.

"Who knows?" As San said, seemingly not caring, "The Xuande furnace is not a conclusion at all. Xiao Jia, you also know that the current rules for this thing are to only focus on the advantages and disadvantages, regardless of the authenticity. If it is done well, such a Xuande furnace should be able to sell for 30,000 or 50,000 yuan."

Speaking of this, Ah San was still sighing: "When can I find a real Xuande furnace? It's better to be an emperor. I responded with all the time, and I came to the court from all directions. Emperor Xuande Zhu Zhanji just saw that the decorations of his home were too cold, so he decided to do a fine decoration and create a big gimmick to change his style. As a result, he happened to meet the Siam emperor who paid him a lot of wind-milled copper tribute."

A San sighed and asked, "Do you know about Fengmiao copper? Don't you know? I don't know. I don't know who said that Emperor Xuande said that the original fine copper can appear after four smelting. So, on a whim when he became an emperor, the people below asked the main material of Fengmiao copper, and then used gold, silver, and a lot of precious metals to smel them all together. It was a hodgepodge. Fortunately, it was really

It was smelted. However, only one quarter of the original thing was left per catty. Xuande thought about it and did it not have much use, so he made it according to some of the works of his predecessors. What are the tripods of the Shang Dynasty and the five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty. There were more than 3,000 pieces, and some said more than 5,000 pieces. There was a furnace in it, which is the so-called real Xuande furnace. But who knows where these Xuande furnaces were staying?"

"Maybe, this one in your hand is that." Jia Sidao said teasingly.

"I think so." Asan made an angry expression, "There are only a few thousand pieces of things in total, and they are all made of secret recipes. Now even the so-called secret recipe has been lost. If one can be found so easily, I won't send it yet. This probability is probably even smaller than picking up a Yuan blue and white porcelain."

"You can't say that, either." Jia Sidao said thinking, "There's always a chance. Hehe, if you don't like this thing, then what are you going to do with it?"

"Make money." Asan said, "Asan said, "This Xuande Furnace with this kind of appearance should be worth a lot of money, no matter whether it is an explicit imitation or not."

Jia Sidao could understand this. As A San said, in the market these days, most of the Xuande furnaces are about quality, regardless of authenticity. Because there are actually not many Xuande furnaces passed down from later generations. On the basis of those very few, later people will wonder what should they do?

So some people began to imitate in large quantities. Nowadays, the ones circulating on the market are basically batch-type imitations. However, the Xuande furnace is not the same as other collectibles. If you can't say imitation, it must be bad. Just like some imitation in the Qing Palace, some imitations of the official kiln porcelain from the previous dynasty, the price is also very high.

Moreover, what is particularly rare is that it is precisely because of the proliferation of these imitations that many ordinary people can see the famous Xuande Furnace. It has to be said that in the domestic environment, imitations and pirated versions are all popular.

Then, Jia Sidao felt that talking about Xuande Furnace endlessly with A San seemed a little irrelevant. So he pulled Uncle Wang to discuss some experience in porcelain collection. You must know that this is the purpose of Jia Sidao coming here to "Ciyunzhai".

As for the Xuande furnace, let A San have fun alone. According to A San himself, he was about 70% sure that the thing was an imitation. So Jia Sidao immediately asked for dividends and simply proposed that if A San did not pay after-sales dividends, Jia Sidao would never pay when he left!

A San could only laugh twice and stop talking.

Not long after much time, Boss Gong walked in while saying sorry. In his hand, he was holding a pack of newspapers, which should have been wrapped in a piece of porcelain.

According to Jia Sidao's requirements, what Boss Gong took out would definitely not be a heavy weapon first, and in addition, the quality would not be too perfect. Otherwise, Boss Gong would have given the things long ago.

As for why Jia Sidao chose some porcelain that had been kept for a long time and had not been traded for collection, it was because Jia Sidao had the intention to collect some unique gadgets. If it was too popular, it would be impossible to say that even if there were a slight flaw in appearance, others would have taken it over. Of course, A San came over just now, smiled strangely, and praised Jia Sidao's request. It was more reasonable and correct.

It’s not that Jia Sidao really can’t afford high-quality porcelain.

After all, this is the first time to do business with "Ciyunzhai". What Jia Sidao is thinking is that it is better to trade than to return empty-handed. If you can trade as soon as possible, it is better to trade than to get the result of the transaction every few days. In short, it is to give each other a good impression first.

In this way, Jia Sidao refused to say that his jade store was about to open and could not free up too much money. With Boss Gong's cleverness, he would definitely understand that Jia Sidao was not going to spend a lot of money to complete the first transaction. If there was really any good porcelain, he could slowly appraise and choose in the days to come.

Besides, Jia Sidao always feels that he is quite skilled in the jade industry. Although he has gained good results in porcelain collection, he is still a novice in the final analysis, right?

Of course, Jia Sidao would never say such an idea. Otherwise, A San, the so-called "veteran", would probably be so envious of Jia Sidao's luck in collecting porcelain, wouldn't he vomit blood?

As Boss Gong slowly opened the newspaper wrapped outside, a Doucai rolled leaf pattern bottle gradually appeared in front of several people. Jia Sidao noticed that when Uncle Wang saw this thing, he glanced at it and stopped watching it, and he still felt quite clear about it. It was obvious that he had not seen this thing very long ago, but he felt that Boss Gong had dug a small hole to test Jia Sidao's eyesight.

Jia Sidao couldn't help but immediately lifted up his spirits and looked carefully.

The body glaze of the entire Docai Roll Leaf Pattern Bottle is relatively delicate, looks white, without the beige feeling, and it is relatively thin and has a high transparency. Jia Sidao lifted the bottle up and looked up at the light. He could almost see the faint fleshy redness that spreads out of the body.

In addition, the glaze on the surface of the bottle is also white and moist, giving people a very delicate and warm feeling. Jia Sidao recalled that this is the typical glaze color feature of the Chenghua official kiln in the Ming Dynasty, "like fat and jade".

"Boss Gong seems to be competing with the Ming Dynasty today." Taking advantage of the time when Jia Sidao was appraisal, A San, who was next to him, started chatting casually with Boss Gong. The Xuande furnace just now was imitated by the Ming Dynasty, and the Doucai rolled leaf pattern bottle that appeared now also belongs to the Ming Dynasty. No wonder A San asked this question.

"The things from the Ming Dynasty are good." But Boss Gong didn't care about Jia Sidao's identification, but followed A San's inquiry and smiled faintly, "The things from the Ming Dynasty are at least valuable."

If an ordinary person said this, it would probably make people feel the smell of some businessmen. However, when Boss Gong said this, he seemed very light and calm, as if things from the Ming Dynasty were indeed valuable.

A San has to admit that many times, only people like Boss Gong or his second grandfather will have such a style now, right?

"The good things from the Ming Dynasty are relatively valuable. However, this thing is hard to say." Uncle Wang next to him seemed to have the same feeling as Ah San. At this time, he said, "I have seen this Doucai rolled leaf pattern bottle less than three times before. The ring-shaped rush on it is really helpless. What a pity."

The so-called punching means there is a damaged area.

"Listen to Uncle Wang, Xiao Jia, have you heard this?" A San said to Jia Si, and raised his voice slightly, saying, "You have to be careful when checking. Since you have been rushing, I think this thing may be collected by Boss Gong from which street vendor."

"Nonsense!" Speaking of the origin of this thing, Boss Gong was very serious. "This bottle with Doucai rolled leaf pattern in Mingchenghua has been in my hands for nearly ten years. If it weren't for the first time Xiao Jia came here and when I was upstairs, I suddenly saw it, which happened to meet Xiao Jia's proposal, and I was really not ready to take it down."

"Is this something you have been betting on for nearly ten years?" It was A San's turn now. You know, in terms of the flow of porcelain in "Ciyunzhai", it is really a great thing to be bet on for nearly ten years. If it is not really a very good thing, it is an absolute fake.

Instead, I thought that Uncle Wang had also checked such a Doucai Rolled Leaf Pattern Box, but he didn't stop. Asan looked at Boss Gong's eyes and suddenly felt a little weird, and he muttered: "Even if you have been collecting things for ten years, can't you collect them from the antique stall ten years ago?"

"Okay, it seems that you are deliberately looking for trouble. If you don't say something real, you won't give up." Boss Gong understood A San's entanglement very well, and immediately stopped explaining, signaling A San to be quiet for a while, waiting for Jia Sidao to complete the appraisal, and then talk about the origin of this thing and why it has been left in "Ciyunzhai" for nearly ten years.

You know, there are not many things that can be held for more than ten years in ordinary porcelain shops. Even many porcelain shops have only been in the history of such ten years.

However, A San felt that the "strike" that Uncle Wang mentioned was the main reason.

Although Jia Sidao on the side of the coffee table was concentrating on identifying such a piece of porcelain, his ears were not idle. He listened to the conversation between A San and Boss Gong and the reminder of Uncle Wang.

When checking this Doucai rolled leaf pattern bottle, Jia Sidao's initial idea was to compare what he saw with the Ming Chenghua Doucai porcelain he had in his impression. He vaguely felt that the porcelain in front of him, at least in terms of style, was very consistent with the characteristics of that era.

In this way, I feel a little too fond of this piece of porcelain.
