Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty - Chapter Five Hundred and Thirty Two
Chapter 531-Chapter 532 Palm Eyes
Although Fatty Jin and others just identified many fake objects, the knowledge extended from those objects opened Zhuang Rui's "ear" world and benefited a lot.
Especially this chicken-blood stone, gave Zhuang Rui the idea of going to the place of production to see it. Although chicken-blood stone is not as popular among the people as jade, in the collecting circle, people of all ages like to play with it, and the price is also rising year by year.
.
Zhuang Rui had been to Zhejiang with Uncle De once before, but not to Changhua. He heard Uncle De say that the foreskin of this bloodstone is similar to that of jade, and it is impossible to see through the inside. There is also a saying that it is a stone.
It's just that the place where chicken blood stone is produced in Changhua has been basically mined out. There are very few chicken blood stones circulating in the market. And chicken blood stone, like Tianhuang stone, is mostly used for seal engraving. There are not many ornaments, so its reputation is not as good as that of jadeite.
, but its value is not much worse than jade.
The things that will be identified next are either real or fake. Not to mention, there are really a lot of interesting things scattered among the people. There are many fine items used by officials in ancient times, but they are not even collected in some big museums.
By about three o'clock in the afternoon, all the objects that came to the site for treasure appraisal had been appraised. The work of Zhuang Rui and others was also concluded. This time was not really very long. It took more than 2 hours to fully calculate.
.
There are more than 100 people bringing treasures to Beijing this time. In other words, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, dozens of treasure holders will come to the scene every day, and the antiques sent for appraisal will be sent to Beijing.
If we postpone it later, if enough items come to the site, we may cancel all the items in the warehouse.
…
The station arranged a car to take the experts back, but Zhuang Rui and Miao Feifei came together, so there was no need to take their car, and Ouyang Jun also had to leave. After saying goodbye to the host and several experts, Zhuang Rui changed back to his clothes.
, and Ouyang Jun and others walked out of the CCTV building.
I don’t know when the snow in the sky stopped, but as far as I can see, the world is still white. On the door of CCTV, there are words to welcome the Spring Festival, which is quite festive.
"Not to mention, you really have the air of an expert? By the way, my courtyard has been tidied up, you have to find some good things for me to put there..."
When Zhuang Rui was about to get into Miao Feifei's car, he was grabbed by Ouyang Jun. Zhuang Rui's performance today made Ouyang Jun feel that his little cousin was really not an ordinary person.
"You should ask Brother Bai about this matter. He drinks and dines with official porcelain. It's not difficult to make you a set of household items that Emperor Qianlong and his concubine used when they... uh, no, had dinner with the empress."
…”
Zhuang Rui smiled and joked with Ouyang Jun. When he mentioned the concubine, Xu Qing gave him a fierce look. Zhuang Rui was so frightened that he quickly changed his mind. In ancient times, Xu Daxing was the empress of the palace, and the concubine...
That is the job title of mistress and third wife.
"Hey, if you are the Fourth Brother, I will accept everything from anyone? Come on, don't be poor with me, let's go to Panjiayuan now..."
Although Ouyang Jun and Bai Feng were childhood friends, he would still pay attention to some things when dealing with him. If others ask for his kindness, he should not be too ugly, so Ouyang Jun did not accept Bai Feng's behavior.
Apart from the screen, nothing else benefited him.
"Going to Panjiayuan now? Fourth brother and sister-in-law can't stand the crowd..."
Zhuang Rui would rather go to Liulichang than Panjiayuan, because the antique shops in Liulichang, like Rongbaozhai, are century-old stores. Although they sell mostly handicrafts now, if you
If you can afford the price, there are still good things out there.
But Panjiayuan is different. It is a fake second-hand market. There are only fakes that you can’t think of. There is nothing that they can’t make. It is also a mixed bag of people from all walks of life. People who dig holes and traps are faster than they want to pay.
There are more people buying things.
Real Beijingers go to Panjiayuan just for a walk. No one would think about checking for leaks there. And the "big ones" who spend money to buy things are basically tourists from other places who come to Beijing, and some of them just kill sheep.
, commonly known as silly foreigners, are those foreigners who can speak a few words in Chinese and also want to pick up missing items on Taobao.
"Ask Miao Yatou to take him to your house, and we two brothers will go there first, and then go back and make a fire by the stove in the evening, let's eat hot pot and drink some wine on the hour..."
I'm sorry Ouyang Jun has already planned it. He doesn't want to go back to his home. There are many things to worry about. The old man is very busy during the New Year. He will probably have to visit Zhuang Rui on the evening of the 30th. Ouyang Jun just wants to spend time with Zhuang Rui this year.
Passed in the yard.
"Don't hold me back, just go ahead..."
Zhuang Rui shook his head helplessly. This brother was usually quite stable in front of outsiders, but when he saw his own family, he was not as sensible as his niece. When Zhuang Rui saw Ouyang Jun talking to his mother, he looked like a child.
He acts coquettishly and looks like a scoundrel. He is almost forty years old. Why does he have such a problem?
In fact, this is also caused by Ouyang Jun losing his mother when he was young. He has not had maternal love since he was a child. Now that he meets his aunt, he immediately becomes his mother. However, every time Ouyang Jun goes to Zhuang Rui's house, he is always carrying big and small bags.
Full of filial piety.
Naturally, Xu Qing had nothing to do with her husband. As long as he didn't fool around, Xu Qing was too lazy to take care of her. The four of them split into two cars and left the TV station.
After the heavy snow, some sunshine actually appeared, shining on the white snow, reflecting very bright light. The weather, which had been gloomy for several days, finally cleared up. Looking at it like this, there is no need to worry about it getting dark at four or five o'clock.
.
After the two drove to Panjiayuan, they found that the place was busy setting up stalls. The roadside stalls had been squeezed out in the past few days. They were expecting to make some dirty money during the Chinese New Year, but they didn't expect God to give up.
The heavy snowfall for several days has delayed a lot of business.
These stall owners have been in the market for a long time and are very familiar with the stalls. Usually they don’t need to take their things home, but just throw them in a familiar store. There are no valuable items anyway, so they are not afraid.
.
As soon as the heavy snow stopped, the stall owners appeared out of nowhere and set up their stalls. The originally deserted market suddenly became noisy.
In addition to these people setting up stalls, there was also a construction team working hard in the heavy snow next to Panjiayuan. They built many shelves and tables, occupying the original parking lot, which made Ouyang Jun back his car out.
, found a parking space outside, and then walked into Panjiayuan with Zhuang Rui, stepping on the snow.
"Fourth brother, what are these people doing? What are they doing with these things during the Chinese New Year?"
Zhuang Rui asked Ouyang Jun a little strangely. There were a lot of people working here. There were hundreds of large and small racks set up at the door of Panjiayuan. But now they are all simple welding. I can’t see what they are for.
of.
"I don't know, this is the first to fifteenth day of the new year, specially used for temple fairs. At that time, those century-old shops and old craftsmen in Beijing will be invited to recreate the style of the old overpass...
"
"Really? Then I will go around..."
Zhuang Rui became interested when he heard this. He knew that Beijing Tianqiao is a well-known place at home and abroad. It has a long history of more than 600 years and plays an irreplaceable role in the development of folk art in modern China.
The overpass was originally located in the south of downtown Beijing, between Qianmen and Yongding Gate, with the Temple of Heaven to the east and Xiannongtan to the west.
After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, with the development of the city's economy and culture and the expansion of the citizen class, Lao Tianqiao gradually became a gathering place for three religions and nine streams, with all five elements and eight works.
During the period before and after liberation, Tianqiao was the birthplace of many folk arts. Artists performed on Tianqiao, usually in the open air, which was known as "laying on the ground".
There are as many as 500 to 600 folk artists who study, perform, teach and live in Lao Tianqiao. They are divided into two categories: juggling artists and rap artists. Juggling includes acrobatics, martial arts and other projects, and rap includes drama, folk arts and other projects.
.
At that time, the Beijing Overpass was so famous that it was named after the Eight Hutongs in Beijing.
I don’t know what the Big Eight Hutongs are? Uh... The principle is similar to those saunas selling dog meat over sheep’s heads. It is commonly known as a kiln. It became famous because a certain emperor in the late Qing Dynasty visited it. It can be regarded as a celebrity effect at that time.
Zhuang Rui once saw a set of old photos collected by Uncle De in Zhonghai, which reflected the grand flyovers in Beijing in the 1920s and 1930s. There were shadow puppets, puppet shows, bustling crowds, and even Manchu wrestling in those days.
The wrestling scene between Shou Baosan and Man Baozhen is extremely precious.
…
Not long after the snow stopped, there were not many people in Panjiayuan. Most of them were street vendors, wearing festive red cotton-padded jackets. They were enjoying the heat with their hands and chatting together. When I saw Zhuang
Rui and his two men came in and surrounded them with a bang.
"Brother, what do you want to do?"
"Two eldest brothers, come and take a look at my place. I have everything from celebrity calligraphy and painting to ceramic antiques..."
"Stay away, stay away from me, my brother has a bad temper..."
Zhuang Rui has been here many times and knows that these people cannot give face. If they do, it will definitely be a slap in the face. Although they will not buy or sell by force, they will definitely annoy you.
Hearing Zhuang Rui's authentic Beijing dialect, these stall owners immediately lost interest and went back to continue chatting. Their service targets are usually foreign tourists and foreign idiots. It is quite difficult to prey on Beijingers.
.
"Fourth brother, what exactly do you want to buy?"
Zhuang Rui saw Ouyang Jun shopping around happily and wanted to get his hands on everything.
In this business, you have to be particular about handling things. For example, purple clay teapots must be covered with a lid, and you must turn over to look at the money. When handling ceramics, no matter whether they are large or small, you must hold them firmly with both hands. Those who set up stalls start from you.
From this hand shape, you can tell whether you are a novice or an expert.
And Ouyang Jun is a complete novice. Just pick up an object, and Zhuang Rui will be annoyed by the stall owner for a long time. Why? Slaughter a fat sheep. Fourth Young Master Ouyang really rarely comes to this place. Everything he sees looks like this.
It's true, and in the eyes of those stall owners, Ouyang Jun looks like a "mao'erye".
Although it was the Chinese New Year, people's faces were beaming with joy and their words were polite, but once they negotiated the price, Zhuang Rui wanted to throw the object in his hand at those people's heads, and the whole thing was like a lion's mouth.
Ouyang Jun was stopping next to a ceramic stall. After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, he said, "I want to buy it. Wu'er, do you think this bowl is no different from the one at Lao Bai's house? I looked at the comparison.
The ones he uses at home are even brighter..."
The man who set up the stall immediately became energetic when he heard Ouyang Jun's words and said: "Hey, sir, you have really good taste. The bowl you got was used by Emperor Qianlong's son, Emperor Jiaqing."
Yes, take a look at the styles at the back, they are absolutely official kiln porcelain..."
The stall owner is not stupid enough to say that this thing was used by Emperor Qianlong, so that would be a bit false.
"How much does this thing cost?" Ouyang Jun asked casually.
"Fourth brother, let's go. If you want this thing, go back to the supermarket and I'll spend 100 yuan to buy dozens of it for you to bang and play with, okay?"
Zhuang Rui just saw a lot of good things on the TV station, but now he has no interest in the things here at all, and he doesn't even bother to use the aura.
Except for the extra style below, this thing is not much different from the ones sold in supermarkets. Zhuang Rui can finally see that Ouyang Jun is just doing it to amuse him.
"Hey, this is not what I said. Do you know what antiques are? Not to mention the eating bowl used by Emperor Jiaqing, or even the toilet used by Emperor Chugong. Those are priceless. How can you take them from the supermarket?
Something to compare with..."
What Zhuang Rui just said was a bit hurtful, and the stall owner was not happy about it. It seemed that the two of them were older, but they were just laymen, and the younger one didn't look like an insider. The stall owner was trying hard to deceive.
Got up.
"Tongzhi blue and white bowl, right?"
Zhuang Rui took the blue and white bowl from Ouyang Jun's hand, turned it over and took a look. He couldn't even get angry anymore. The design clearly stated that it was made during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty. This stall owner was too amateurish.
"Nuo, your Jiaqing blue and white bowl has been collected by you. If it is tempered, we brothers cannot afford to pay for it..."
Zhuang Rui handed the blue and white bowl to the stall owner. The stall owner took it and took a look, knowing that he had made a mistake, and became silent in anger.
"Brother, you sold it to me for two yuan. How about I temper it and listen to the sound? Hey, Wu'er, why are you pulling me?"
Ouyang Jun was a little tired and wanted to stimulate that person, but Zhuang Rui forcefully pulled him away.
"Brother Zhuang Rui..."
As soon as he left the stall, Zhuang Rui suddenly heard someone calling his name. He looked around and saw that at the door of a shop to his right, two girls were standing together, and the older one was waving to him.
"Swing, why are you here alone, girl?"
Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment and walked over quickly. This was the precious granddaughter of his future mentor, but she had never been interested in such things. Why did she come here today? This Panjiayuan is not a kind place.
"Hehe, brother Zhuang Rui, my grandpa and I are here. This is my cousin. Her name is Meng Xiyou. You can just call her Youyou..." Meng Qiuqian's cousin is only eleven or twelve years old.
They look somewhat similar. Anyway, in Zhuang Rui's eyes, they are beautiful, but they are both a bit weird.
Following Meng Qiuqian's fingers, Zhuang Rui saw Professor Meng chatting with someone in the shop. That person Zhuang Rui also looked a bit familiar.
"Hey, brother, you're always so cute. You know a lot of women. These two little lolita are pretty good..." Ouyang Jun looked up and down at Meng Qiuqian and Youyou. Although his expression didn't change at all, his mouth
What Zhuang Rui said made Zhuang Rui want to give him a slap in the face.
However, when these two girls stood in front of the store, they really attracted people's attention. The two girls were quite beautiful. They were wearing pink down jackets and looked like two porcelain dolls. Many people walked by.
Every time, I have to take a look like that.
Especially that girl Meng Qiuqian, her eyes are already big, and her eyelashes are very long. When she blinks, she looks like the girl in the cartoon. Zhuang Rui is very confused every time he sees her. Are these eyelashes real or fake?
Yes?
"Why are you ignoring me..." Ouyang Jun saw Zhuang Rui was silent and touched him with his arm.
"You go and play, this is my mentor's granddaughter, she is probably underage, don't talk nonsense..."
Zhuang Rui glared at Ouyang Jun angrily, greeted the two girls, and walked into the store.
After walking under the door of this store, Zhuang Rui remembered that he had been to this store before. He raised his head and looked up. The signboard was exactly the three words "Colaifang". The one Zhuang Rui bought last time for leak detection.
It is here that the Longshan black pottery is restored to its original appearance.
However, at this time, two large red lanterns were hung at the entrance of the store, and couplets were also posted on both sides of the store. It was full of New Year's celebrations from inside to outside, so Zhuang Rui didn't recognize it at first.
"You...are you Mr. Zhuang from last time?"
As soon as Zhuang Rui walked up to Professor Meng, the man who was talking to Professor Meng recognized Zhuang Rui at a glance.
"Haha, boss, I hope you will get rich in the new year. I wish you a happy new year in advance..."
Zhuang Rui smiled and bowed his hand to him, and then said hello to Professor Meng. He just came out of Professor Meng's house yesterday, and he wasn't so polite.
"I bought some porcelain some time ago. I wanted to ask you to check it out, but I couldn't get through to you. It's just the right time today. Mr. Zhuang will come back and have a look..."
"I just came back from Myanmar, what good stuff did the boss find?" Zhuang Rui asked with a smile.
"Brother Zhuang Rui, the pearl flowers you gave to my sister are so beautiful..."
The little girl named Youyou suddenly interrupted. Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment. When he looked at Meng Qiuqian, the girl's eyes were looking around and she didn't dare to look at him. She must have asked Youyou to say this.
talk.
Professor Meng said with a straight face: "Youyou, don't be ridiculous..."
"No, no, my sister has it, but I don't, so I want it too..."
The little girl was not afraid of her grandfather at all. She grabbed Professor Meng's clothes with both hands and shook him back and forth, making this domestic archaeological leader very embarrassed.
"Youyou, I'll bring it to you later. I didn't bring it with me right now..." Zhuang Rui was a little depressed. He was not Ximen Qing, so he had nothing to do with taking two women's jewelry shopping on the street.
After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, the girl immediately stopped pestering Professor Meng and started joking with Meng Zhuqian. Professor Meng shook his head and looked like he was in trouble for the family.
"Xiao Zhuang, come here, look at an object for me. I haven't decided whether to keep it or not..."
Professor Meng's major is archeology, and he is also very fond of collecting. Otherwise, it would be impossible to become good friends with Uncle De.
He was very happy to see Professor Zhuang Ruimeng now. He knew that his apprentice had learned a lot about antique appreciation from Zhonghai's Uncle De. Although he was engaged in archeology, his eyesight was not necessarily better than Zhuang Rui's, so he didn't
With no teacher's pretensions, he directly dragged Zhuang Rui and the boss into the compartment of "Cilaifang".
"Please take a seat, please. I'll bring the things over here..." The boss called a waiter to serve tea to them, and then walked to the back room.
"Oh, this thing of yours is really suitable for the occasion. As the saying goes, the dumplings in the first grade of junior high school are the noodles in the second grade of junior high school, and the boxes in the third grade of junior high school are transferred home. Boss, this thing is something we ordinary people often use..."
Zhuang Rui saw at a glance that the boss was holding a set of ceramic tableware and couldn't help but laugh. This was also a category of porcelain, but compared to those ceramic official kiln vessels whose ornamental value was greater than their practical value, collecting
There are not many people doing these things.
"Boss Zhuang has a good eye..."
After the boss put the things on the table, he raised his thumbs at Zhuang Rui. Judging from the jargon coming out of Zhuang Rui's mouth, most people had never heard it.
Zhuang Rui smiled and was not polite. He stood up and looked at the set of items on the table. This was a set of tableware, six pieces in total, a bowl for eating, chopsticks for picking up vegetables, a plate for serving dishes, and
Soup bowls, etc.
"Mr. Zhuang, what do you think of this thing?" After Zhuang Rui looked at it for seven or eight minutes, the boss asked, his words not without the meaning of questioning Zhuang Rui.
"Haha, these objects are old things, but they are from the late Qing Dynasty, and although they are all made of pastel porcelain, they are not a complete set, which is a bit of a pity..."
Zhuang Rui just used his spiritual energy to look at it. Although this set of porcelain contained spiritual energy, it was not dense, and the amount of spiritual energy in each object was not the same, which led him to draw this conclusion.
"However, it is not easy for this thing to be preserved for more than 100 years. It is still in complete condition. And judging from the style, this should be a piece of food specially made and baked by Huizhou merchants from Jingdezhen. Then boss, I
Is that right?"
Zhuang Rui was a little addicted to treasure appraisal on CCTV today. He didn't hold back and told the origin of this set of tableware. The boss and Professor Meng next to him were dumbfounded.
At this moment, the boss had long since stopped thinking about Zhuang Rui. He only knew the origin of this thing after going through many researches and looking at it with many experts.
Unexpectedly, Zhuang Rui said it exactly as soon as he glanced at it. He was shocked in his heart.
