Chapter 529: Spring Festival Treasure Appraisal (2)
While the expert introductions appeared on the screen, the two hosts Li Jia and Liu Jia were also busy, and the treasure appraisal program officially began.
"Welcome our first Tibetan friend Mr. Wang Meng. Happy New Year to Mr. Wang..."
"Happy New Year, host, happy New Year..."
The conversation coming from outside the door made Zhuang Rui feel a little uncomfortable. It was still several days before the Chinese New Year. Listening to the voices of the people outside, it felt like it was the first day of the new year.
"Mr. Wang's baby is really extraordinary..."
Liu Jia's voice made Zhuang Rui almost spit out the tea he was drinking. Why did this sound even more awkward? Well, Zhuang Rui admitted that he was impure, but looking at the face of Fatty Jin next to him, he was also a little weird.
I am not the only one with this rich power of association.
"This is a gold ingot. It is really auspicious. I saw such a treasure on the first day of the new year. This one is from the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty..."
Li Jia's voice came from outside the door, letting several experts inside know what object was to be identified.
After the two hosts chatted with the treasure holder for a few more words, the sensor door opened, and a young man who looked to be in his twenties walked in. As soon as he entered, he bowed to the expert table and said: "
Happy New Year to all experts..."
These are all lines that have been given in advance. Although the program is recorded and broadcast, the broadcast time is on the first day of the new year. All words used in the program must be spoken as if it were the first day of the new year.
"Happy New Year, happy New Year..."
Although Fatty Jin is not an expert in identifying this object, he is very knowledgeable about this stuff. He continued: "Giving gold ingots on the first day of the Lunar New Year is really auspicious. In fact, when we eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year, we are actually eating ingots. Wish you good luck.
…”
Zhuang Rui sat aside and couldn't help but admire Fatty Jin. This allusion came right out of his mouth. He was really far behind.
"Young man, what is the origin of your gold ingot?"
The palm-sized ingot was passed around in the hands of several people before being handed over to Teacher Sun. He was a miscellaneous expert, and this object fell into the miscellaneous category.
"A friend of mine bought this from an auction..."
"When was it taken? How much did it cost?"
"It was taken the year before last, and it would have cost 1.6 million RMB..."
After Zhuang Rui heard the conversation between Teacher Sun and the treasure holder, he couldn't help but be surprised. This ingot looked like it only weighed two or three kilograms at most, but it could be sold at such an expensive price?
Zhuang Rui stretched out his hand and took the gold ingot in his hand and played with it. He found that the edges of the gold ingot were engraved with patterns, which were very exquisite. Zhuang Rui quietly looked at it with his eyes. Inside the gold ingot, he found that it was full of patterns.
Rich purple-gold aura.
Although there is aura in the gold that Zhuang Rui obtained from Myanmar, it is so thin that it is almost indistinguishable. It seems that like other antiques, the aura in this gold is also formed by the passage of time.
After Zhuang Rui returned the gold ingot, Teacher Sun took it in his hand and analyzed it: "Precious metals like gold and silver have been re-melted and cast in all dynasties. This gold ingot has been preserved from the Ming Dynasty to the present.
And the text is very clear, but it is unique.
The carvings on this must be the workmanship of the master craftsmen of the Ministry of Internal Affairs at that time. The knife skills are clear and are the carving methods of the Ming Dynasty. For this thing, it is very rare.
Moreover, the Ming Dynasty had very strict control over gold. These gold ingots must be stored in the warehouse and will not appear among the people..."
Fatty Jin interfaced and said: "This thing should be used by the government to hold the treasury. It is the treasury mentioned in the TV series. Let's let Mr. Qian come and evaluate it..."
The items were real, and both Fatty Jin and Teacher Sun gave them high marks, but the final estimate still came from Qian Jun. He was an auctioneer, so he naturally knew the market value of these items very well.
"This gold ingot can be said to be very precious. Its preciousness does not lie in the gold itself. This gold ingot is only worth hundreds of thousands, but its historical value far exceeds the gold ingot itself.
Value, if it really must be given a price..."
Qian Jun stopped here. Not only did the treasure holder's eyes widen, but Zhuang Rui and other experts, as well as the staff standing in the distance, also pricked up their ears. The thing photographed by 1.6 million yuan,
After two years, I wonder how much the price will rise?
"3.6 million. In today's auction market, this thing should be able to fetch this price..."
Amid everyone's expectations, Mr. Qian gave his quotation, causing the staff on site to take a breath and look at the gold ingot in surprise.
In 2 years, the value of this gold ingot has increased by 2 million. This is much more cost-effective than stock trading, and it is still a guaranteed profit. The impact felt on the spot is better than sitting in front of the TV and watching.
It's so much better that many staff members are so excited that they may want to visit Panjiayuan in the next few days.
"Thank you, thank you teachers for your appraisal..." After hearing the price, the treasure holder was very happy, stood up, bowed and walked out.
"Click..."
A deputy director next to him stopped, then came to the seat of the expert group with a big red certificate, and asked Teacher Sun to write an appraisal: Fifty gold ingots of full color were made by the Ministry of Household Affairs in the thirty years of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty.
2. After identification by a group of experts, this gold ingot is the only Ming Dynasty gold ingot that has been circulated among the people. At that time, it was mainly used for royal and national expenses, as well as rewards and storage, so it was even more precious.
After Teacher Sun finished writing the appraisal, several people, including Zhuang Rui, signed their names on it.
"Thank you, thank you teachers..."
The assistant director pulled the treasure holder to explain a few words, and then allowed the camera to continue rolling. After the treasure holder went out, he interacted with the two hosts for a while, and then the second treasure holder began to appear.
.
"This young man is lucky..."
"Yeah, I didn't expect the first object to be an old thing. It seems that today we can all open our eyes..."
"I don't know what the next object will be..."
The first thing that was appraised was a rare treasure, which made several experts very happy. The door was closed anyway, so it was not their turn to take pictures of them now, so several people started chatting.
"Teacher Sun, it is easier to cast this gold ingot after melting it. Are there many modern imitations?"
Zhuang Rui couldn't help but feel a little itchy when he thought about the two tons of gold that he was about to get. He thought he would give it a few pieces, but if he didn't sell it, it would look good in the basement.
"Haha, there are imitations, but they are relatively rare, because metal antiques must be oxidized after being forged to give them some characteristics of antiques, but there will be losses during the oxidation process.
And gold itself is a precious metal. Regardless of its historical value, the value of this piece is hundreds of thousands. Basically no one will spend such a large amount of money to fake it..."
After Teacher Sun explained this, Zhuang Rui also understood. Yes, something worth hundreds of thousands in itself, and if it is used for fraud, if it doesn't look the same, then it will be a waste of gold.
"Go back and find someone to make a mold. When the gold arrives, melt a few pieces and make it for fun..."
Zhuang Rui thought to himself that he was not afraid of the losses, and this gold ingot was really beautiful, much prettier than those small gold bricks.
At this time, the second person also walked into the hall. He was holding a white glaze colorless Fengming teapot. It was Tian Fan's job to identify it. When he took a look, Tian Fan laughed and said: "
How did you get this object?"
The thirty-year-old treasure holder was a little nervous and said: "It belongs to my relative. He went to the Palace Museum to see it. There is a blue and white porcelain with the same style as this. It should be an old item, right?"
Tian Fan laughed when he heard this and asked: "This thing doesn't belong to you, does it?"
After getting the man's reply, Tian Fan continued: "The theme of our treasure appraisal column this time is called Dreams Come True. However, your relative's dream cannot come true for the time being, because there is still a long way to go before it is real.
It must have been a few hundred years apart..."
Tian Fan's words made everyone present laugh. When the middle-aged man heard this, he naturally knew that the object was fake and left the hall with the pot.
At the back, several collectors came to come with their own things for appraisal, including window cutouts, bronzes, and one actually came with Song Huizong's own calligraphy for appraisal. Of course, the word "authentic handwriting" was just what he thought.
of.
However, without exception, these things are all fakes and imitations by later generations. The bronze is an imitation of the hand-washing utensils from the Warring States Period, but the green embroidery and other things are all man-made.
As for the calligraphy written by Huizong of the Song Dynasty, it is even more fake, because the bell seals on it from more than a dozen different eras are all of the same color. This is simply impossible. The treasure holder
The old gentleman was not very satisfied with the expert's opinion, so he reserved his own opinion and left.
Zhuang Rui and the others encountered this kind of thing a lot when they were in Jinan. No one would think that their baby was fake.
It's not of much value. In just over half an hour, I looked at about 10 objects. It's just that several other experts were busy working on it, not Zhuang Rui, because there was no jade among these things.
"Teacher Zhuang, your business is here..."
After seeing what was in the hands of a Tibetan friend, several experts laughed. The calligraphy and painting bronzes and miscellaneous items were all exposed. Only Zhuang Rui's jade items were missing. What the Tibetan friend is holding now is
A jade ornament.
This is a white jade ornament inlaid on a sandalwood base. It is about the size of a fist. It is carved with two lions, one big and one small, with the little lion riding on the back of the big lion. The carving is very good.
