Chapter 130 Thank you for the gift from the seniors
"This price is not expensive for a bottle with such a big door opening!" the old man said, making a sign like seven.
After taking a look, Chen Wenzhe continued to appraise the porcelain: "Are you sure?"
"Sure!" the old man said affirmatively.
Chen Wenzhe was not talking. He carefully inspected every detail of the bottle.
This bottle has elegant colors, delicate painting, white and fine porcelain, moist glaze, regular shape, and a height of more than 40 centimeters.
This is a vase. The opening of the glaze is very beautiful.
I looked at the bottom and saw that there was no inscription, so it seemed to be a private kiln.
This bottle has an open mouth, and the cracks inside the bottle are very clear. Seeing this, Chen Wenzhe became even more confused.
When Qian Qinggu came to play, he definitely couldn't bring something with a big door open. There was a pit in it, but he couldn't see where it was!
This is no longer fun. Chen Wenzhe feels that he is a bit too much. This antique business is really not easy to mess around with.
The blue-and-white characters have swords and horses, and the painting skills are acceptable. At least the eyes of the blue-and-white characters are not blurry and look a bit vivid.
You can't ask for anything more from a folk kiln.
However, if no problem can be found, the minimum price of this bottle will be higher than 70,000 yuan.
After all, this kind of bottle is very troublesome to make, but if it can be made perfectly, the price is not low.
Chen Wenzhe was a little helpless. It was a bad start, but he didn't find the problem!
His head was running at high speed. It didn't look like it was old, so it was repaired?
It's really possible that it's repair. Recently, his repair techniques have reached a master level.
With the direction in hand, Chen Wenzhe immediately discovered the flaw and there was a crack in the mouth of the bottle.
An expert repaired this bottle, and it seems that the repair process was very simple. He just used glue to re-glue the broken porcelain pieces piece by piece.
"What a master!" Chen Wenzhe was a little surprised when he looked at the intact bottle.
There is a glue repair on the rim of this bottle, but the rest is fine.
Still not careful enough at first, Chen Wenzhe picked up a magnifying glass again and observed carefully under the magnifying glass.
The opening of the Ge kiln is really beautiful. The open porcelain bottle exposes the opening inside, allowing Chen Wenzhe to see it more clearly.
With pertinence, problems cannot be hidden at all.
That master actually cleverly used the openings of the bottle to hide the broken parts and decorations among the many openings. No wonder he couldn't find the problem no matter how hard he looked!
Chen Wenzhe breathed a sigh of relief after discovering the problem, but new questions popped up.
A bottle repaired in this way should be easy to fool, right?
Thinking of this, Chen Wenzhe had a thought in his mind.
He took out a strong flashlight and shined it on the outer wall of the porcelain bottle.
Sure enough, the disadvantages of open-top bottles became apparent.
Under the light, the cracks inside the porcelain bottle are clearly visible.
This should be the only flaw after repair.
After taking a look at Zhang Yijie, I saw that the more amateur he is, the more complete his equipment is. It seems that it is impossible to sell it at a high price.
He took off his gloves and looked at Qian Qinggu. At this time, the old man already looked embarrassed.
Chen Wenzhe was also rude and didn't give the old man a chance to regret it. He directly took out his wallet, counted seven cards, and handed them to the old man.
"Old senior, this is seven hundred yuan, keep it."
"Such a beautiful bottle is worth seven hundred?" a young man asked doubtfully.
These people still knew the rules. When Chen Wenzhe appraised the porcelain vase, they did not say anything. Now that they saw that the transaction had begun, they asked about their doubts.
"This is the price for a broken late Qing folk kiln." Zhang Yijie said with a smile.
Qing Guzhai's expression changed again and again, but in the end he turned around and left without saying a word.
"Old senior, don't be anxious. The store is opening today. Let's go and celebrate in the evening."
If you can avoid offending others, it is better not to offend them to death. Anyway, you are taking advantage of them, so you cannot be unreasonable and unforgiving!
Qian Qinggu's steps stagnated, and he turned around and said, "I'll definitely arrive in the evening."
"Thank you, senior, for your gift. I accepted it without ceremony." Chen Wenzhe said with a smile.
"Come and visit often from now on!" Qian Qinggu's expression became a little better.
After he left, there were five or six people in the store, a little confused.
"What's going on? Boss, tell me?" This time, a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old led by the couple asked.
Before Chen Wenzhe could speak, a young man spoke up: "You have discovered the problem. Boss, you win, right?"
"We can't say we won. We can only say we did our part. If we found the problem, we took the porcelain at the cost price. If we couldn't find it, we would have to take a closer look." Chen Wenzhe explained.
"Boss, please tell me carefully. I also like antiques, but I don't have the discernment to do so. I don't dare to buy them. I just look at them." At this time, the middle-aged man who had been silent spoke.
After looking at this man's clothes and his wife and children, he should be a man with money and leisure.
In fact, people who travel here, except locals, are all considered wealthy people.
Potential customers naturally have to be well entertained, since they are fine now anyway.
"This is a typical Qing Dynasty Huang Ge glaze blue and white cylinder vase with figures, swords and horses. Anyone who plays antiques should know about Ge glaze. Yellow glaze blue and white, as well as figure paintings, these can all add points to this bottle. Unfortunately, this
It is a folk kiln, but it is considered a fine piece of folk kiln, so if it is a complete product, it would be worth more than 70,000 yuan."
"Seventy thousand!" The three young people next to him exclaimed.
"Where's my year's salary!"
"This is an antique that working people really can't afford."
Chen Wenzhe listened happily: "You can't say that. If you like it, you can buy some beautiful things at low prices and keep them. The prices are low now, but it won't necessarily change over time."
"Aren't you selling these modern handicrafts of yours?" The middle-aged man was also happy.
Zhang Yijie said at this time: "Since we all know that it is a modern handicraft, how can we deceive people? Ten yuan for small pieces, twenty yuan for medium-sized porcelain, and fifty yuan for large ones. How about this price?"
"So cheap? There is a shop not far away that sells similar porcelain to yours. One piece costs 500!" the little boy said in surprise.
The middle-aged man said with a smile: "It seems that the little brother is no longer trying to trick tourists into eating? Let's talk about this bottle to me carefully. If I believe you, I will buy some pieces of porcelain from you!"
At this time, two more people came in from outside, so there was not much room in the store.
After understanding what was going on here, the two people who came in didn't mind the crowd and all came over to listen curiously.
Chinese people like to get together. This place is crowded with people, and tourists passing by outside are also looking in curiously.
The gathering of people is naturally a good thing, and Chen Wenzhe must seize the opportunity.
"If this kind of exquisite folk kiln in the late Qing Dynasty is perfect, it is not expensive at 70,000 yuan. Normally, this porcelain should be worth 7,000 yuan. If problems are found, the purchase price is 700 to 2,010 yuan, or 10% to 30% of the purchase price."
"The purchase price is so low?" The middle-aged man frowned.
