"I always clearly mark my prices, and I am a no-brainer. Since I know my business, I will not ask for high prices. These things of mine are all high-quality products from private kilns. Since they are high-quality products, the price cannot be lower. This one
How about 3,000 yuan for a perfect product and 500 yuan for the other ones? This price is not expensive, right?"
Chen Wenzhe naturally thought it was not expensive, but he couldn't say that.
Otherwise, if you mistreat the boss, the boss will mistreat him in turn!
"The perfect one is priced at three thousand, but the defective one is too expensive. For those five pieces, I will give you a total of two thousand, plus three thousand, for a total of five thousand. This price is not low, right?"
"Uh!" The boss was really choked by Chen Wenzhe. Is there such a counteroffer?
Five pieces of porcelain bowls were only reduced by 500. This is not the point. The point is the 3000 pieces. Did you directly agree to his quotation?
Although it feels a bit strange, the boss has been doing business for many years and his response is quite fast.
He immediately said: "As the saying goes, a thousand cups of wine with a close friend is too little, and half a sentence without speculation is more. For the sake of speculation, for this price, even if you don't make money, you still have to make a friend.
"
Looking at the generous boss, Chen Wenzhe was very happy: "Since I want to make a friend, why not open your little box and take a look. If there is any such porcelain in it, I will take all of it."
While talking, Chen Wenzhe took out his mobile phone.
I scanned the boss's QR code, paid the money, and finally got the item.
At this moment, the boss slowly opened the box and took out another teapot from inside.
Where can there be a teacup without a teapot?
However, why does this teapot look different from the six teacups?
The very familiar purple clay pot seems to be old at first glance, but at a second glance, you can tell that it is a grout tire.
Chen Wenzhe shook his head and said: "I want the matching white porcelain teapot!"
"No more. There are only six cups in this set, and the cups don't seem to be complete. I heard from the family that these originally had saucers and tea lids, but I don't know when they were all lost. It seemed that they were lost when they moved.
, it’s gone anyway.”
The items had been sold and were not in complete sets. There was no need for him to hide this, so he told Chen Wenzhe honestly.
Chen Wenzhe had thought of this a long time ago, but he just didn't know why such a set of Dehua white porcelain tea sets was in such poor condition.
I couldn't bear to use the backtracking skill. I've been using it a lot recently, so it's better to take my time.
Besides, since you already have the items, there is no need to use skills now.
Just wait until you have free time, or when you return to the hotel, and take a look.
Holding six small cups wrapped in newspapers, Chen Wenzhe continued walking in the antique city.
“There are really good things here!”
Chen Wenzhe stroked several small cups and looked around.
After just taking a few steps forward, Chen Wenzhe saw some jade items at a stall in front of him.
Although most of the things inside are made of modern handicrafts, a few of the little beauties look like they have something to do with each other.
You know, if you are looking for ancient jade in China, one place is here, and the other place should be over there in Yangluo.
These two places should be the easiest places to find ancient jade, right?
As for the Northeast, the place is too big and the jades unearthed are too few. Most people can't buy anything good there.
As for the major domestic jade wholesale markets, you can’t even buy anything good.
Therefore, when he saw three white jade beauties at an ordinary stall here, Chen Wenzhe did not express any surprise.
There are dozens of stalls he is looking at now, right?
There are dozens of things in each stall, right?
Among so many things, he only collected six tea bowls. Now he sees three beauties, which is normal!
I walked slowly over and looked at the things on the stall, including jade bis, jade dragons, jade pigs, jade pigs and dragons, and the most numerous ones were jade figures.
There were more people today, so when Chen Wenzhe saw clearly what was on the stall, he pulled all three beauties into his hands.
After getting it and glancing at it a few times, Chen Wenzhe knew that this thing was timely.
In fact, identification is very simple. He did not look at the color, which is more difficult to identify, but looked at the carvings.
Chen Wenzhe now also has a very high level of jade carving. He can tell at a glance whether it is made using a jade tool.
There are carvings of different depths, traces of wiring parts, and some small scratches. It seems that it was made with a gypsum tool, and it cannot be machine work.
Just like the Canglong Godson piece he had seen before, when carved by a machinist, he usually carves a V-shape instead of a U-shape.
When carving this U-shaped structure on the tuoji, there will be wrong knife marks, and it will not be carved out in one go.
Therefore, as long as it is seen that it is made using a tuoji, it generally cannot be a modern handicraft.
Because hand-making is time-consuming and labor-intensive, it may take a month to polish such a small jade figure. And what is the monthly salary of a jade worker with slightly better skills? It should be 10,000 yuan, right?
The labor cost is only 10,000 yuan. Then when you come to this antique market, how much do you have to sell to make back the money?
Holding the three jade figures and examining them carefully, they are a set of statues of one husband and two wives, or one master and two maids.
All three pieces are made of Hetian white jade, with natural patina and a rich and noble appearance.
The reason why they are said to be beauties from the Tang Dynasty at a glance is naturally because the two ladies are relatively plump.
These two female figurines have round faces, a bun with embossed flowers, eyebrows and beautiful eyes, a straight nose and a cherry mouth. They are wearing wide-sleeved tops, with their hands covering their sleeves and cupping their chests, and their long skirts touching the floor.
The male host wears a high crown, puts his hands on his chest, has a plump face, gorgeous clothes, and a relaxed expression.
This kind of beautiful woman with typical characteristics of Tang Dynasty characters is easy to recognize.
The round sculpture figures of the Tang Dynasty that have been unearthed and collected in museums are relatively rare.
From the figure's shape, it can be seen that it is a jade figure from the Tang Dynasty, and from the carving traces, it can be seen that it is an artificial gypsum sculpture.
And through craftsmanship, it can be proven once again that this is the pinnacle of ancient craftsmanship.
This kind of craftsmanship cannot be developed in ordinary dynasties.
The Tang Dynasty lasted for 289 years from AD 618 to AD 907.
During this period, the country enjoyed strong national strength, political stability, and cultural prosperity. It was recognized by the world as one of China's most prosperous eras.
Under such a historical background, the jade wares of the Tang Dynasty also swept away the haze of the great decline of jade wares in the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, and produced a completely new change.
Its strong flavor of life and unique style of the times have left a glorious page in the long history of Chinese jade culture.
Chen Wenzhe likes this kind of technical stuff because he understands technology.
As long as there is technical content, he can see it, and seeing this kind of peak technology naturally proves that it is a good thing.
