What Li Yang did was just a simple action of pouring wine.
He held a plum bottle in both hands and placed it flat there, as if there was a wine glass underneath and the wine in the bottle was being poured into the glass.
It was a very common action that many people present knew, even those foreigners. However, such a simple action made everyone suddenly realize it.
After the bottle was turned over, keeping the shape of pouring wine, the dragon also turned over, writhing mightily with its teeth and claws.
This is a soaring dragon, which can only be seen when it is placed flat. If you hold the bottle upright, you will see an upright, somewhat nondescript dragon.
This is the doubt that Matsumoto raised before.
"So that's it!"
The foreigner who just called out the effect of Mei Ping nodded gently and said something in a low voice.
Li Yang's action did not require any explanation, it already made everyone understand what was going on.
The plum bottle itself is a wine bottle, which is used for pouring wine. This dragon is what is displayed in front of everyone when pouring wine. A dragon is flying and waving there, with delicious wine flowing in front of it, which has a unique taste.
When the bottle is placed normally, it is naturally upright, and the shape of the dragon is also upright. The reason why it looks unnatural and weird to everyone is all due to the problem of visual angle.
It's not that there's anything wrong with the dragon.
To be precise, everyone's subconscious and eyes have deceived themselves. If you look at a horizontal thing vertically, something will definitely look wrong.
Li Yang's actions became the best explanation. There was no need to say anything else. Everyone understood what was going on.
"Why didn't I think of putting it sideways?"
The store owner patted his head in annoyance, but he was more excited. Li Yang explained the answer he couldn't think of, and the explanation was so perfect.
"Nowadays, plum vase is used as a viewing device, and many people ignore its original function!"
Li Yang's words made many people nod again. Nowadays, many foreigners are also interested in Chinese antiques. There are many people who know this. Even if they don't know, they will immediately understand what's going on if they ask people around them.
"Impossible, why is the wine bottle so big?"
Matsumoto suddenly yelled. He seemed a little unwilling, with a bit of ferocity and anger on his face. Li Yang's sudden appearance disrupted everything about him.
"Ha ha!"
Someone suddenly burst out laughing, and it was not Li Yang or Bai Ming who laughed, but a yellow-skinned onlooker nearby.
The two shop owners, as well as Li Yang and Bai Ming, also had smiles on their faces, and even some foreigners smiled.
People who didn't understand what was going on started talking in low voices. Most of the people who came to the antique market had a certain understanding of ancient culture, and China's wine culture has a long history, and many people knew about it.
Why are wine bottles so big? People can actually ask such a question. Many people know that wine in ancient China was made from pure grains, such as rice wine, fruit wine, etc., with very low alcohol content, unlike today
Distilled liquor has a high alcohol content and makes you easily drunk.
Moreover, many domestic novels have described that ancient people had a high drinking capacity.
The amount of alcohol consumed at that time cannot really be judged by today's liquor. If it were modern liquor, Wu Song would have been able to drink three bowls of it, not to mention eighteen bowls. That would really mean that three bowls would not be enough.
The alcohol content is low and everyone can drink it, so ordinary small wine bottles are not suitable, so the wine bottles have to be larger. This is why some plum bottles are very large.
But the plum vase in front of me is really not that big. The *** person asked such an idiot question again, which made others laugh. At this time, everyone already believed Li Yang and no longer believed in this *** person.
people.
"So, this bottle is really a treasure from China's Jin Dynasty?"
Someone who came earlier and knew the ins and outs of the matter suddenly asked. The first person wanted to buy this bottle, but said it was fake, and then the young Chinese bought it.
Before the Chinese bought it, they had already said that this bottle was not from the Qing Dynasty, but from the earlier Jin Dynasty.
Now that everyone believes in Li Yang and believes that he is not the owner of the store, they naturally believe what he says.
The eyes of those who came first were slightly bright. If it was a treasure from the Jin Dynasty, its value would naturally be higher. It is really possible that, as Li Yang himself said, this bottle is worth tens of thousands of euros.
In that case, Li Yang really made a mistake.
No one, no matter Chinese or foreigners, hates leak detection. Everyone hopes that they can detect leaks. At this moment, several people are already looking at Li Yang with envy.
"This is indeed a plum vase from the Jin Dynasty, I can prove it!"
A voice suddenly rang out. Several people in uniforms and an older person walked in from the outside. Seeing the older person, many people unnaturally moved out of the way.
Location.
"Mr. Charles is here!"
"Mr. Charles said that this bottle is made of gold, so it must be!"
“I didn’t expect this young Chinese to be so powerful!”
People around him were whispering that Charles was the older man. He was a native of Milan, Italy, and was in his fifties.
He is also an authoritative figure in the Italian appraisal community. He is very famous in Milan and even in Italy as a whole. He often appears on some TV programs. Italy also has similar domestic treasure appraisal programs.
He is not from this market, but he has several businesses of his own on Wusulan Street.
He was going to inspect his store today, and he happened to encounter this incident when he was passing by. The people with him were people from the market management office. These people originally wanted to disperse the crowd early and divert the place away, but were stopped by Charles.
It was stopped.
Only then did he see what happened next.
His appearance and his words made some Italians around him no longer suspicious. Foreign tourists who did not know Charles quietly inquired about his identity and believed what Li Yang had just said even more.
This is what Italy’s authoritative experts and professionals say, and it is certainly worthy of belief.
This also made more people envious of Li Yang, and some people seemed very excited. They had witnessed the process of picking up leaks with their own eyes.
Matsumoto frowned. He didn't know Charles, but the person following Charles was obviously the manager here, so he didn't act rashly or talk nonsense.
"Mr. Bai Ming, we meet again!"
Charles walked to the end, glanced at Li Yang first, and then said hello to Bai Ming with a smile.
He and Bai Ming have known each other for a long time. Charles has been to China and Bai Ming has also been to Italy. As well-known experts in the same industry, it is completely normal for them to communicate together.
But when he said hello, he was still quietly observing Li Yang.
"Mr. Charles, I didn't expect to meet you here!"
Bai Ming hugged Charles enthusiastically. Looking at his appearance, Bai Ming laughed again, pointed at Li Yang and said: "Mr. Charles, let me introduce to you. This is the most outstanding person among our colleagues."
He is also the youngest genius, Li Yang!"
Bai Ming's last words were spoken in a slightly lower voice, and not many people heard him.
Charles's expression obviously changed, and he seemed to be a little excited.
"It's really you, Mr. Li..."
"Mr. Charles, if you have anything to say, can we talk about it later?"
Before Charles could finish his words, he was interrupted by Bai Ming. After Li Yang was attacked in South Korea, the people around him subconsciously increased their protection for him.
Bai Ming didn't want Charles to expose Li Yang's identity here.
"Okay, no problem, please follow me!"
Charles seemed even more surprised, but he didn't ask anything and just invited Bai Ming and the others to go with him.
He has his business on Wusulan Street, with several fairly small shops. That is where he lives, and now it is time to invite Li Yang and the others there.
Charles is a famous expert in Italy and his status is similar to that of Bai Ming in China. However, he did not attend the last Canadian Treasure Appraisal Conference and has not met Li Yang.
But he had heard of Li Yang's name many times, and he had also watched some videos of the Canadian Treasure Appraisal Conference.
Just now outside, he had doubted Li Yang's identity, and Bai Ming's words confirmed his suspicion, so he said that.
Li Yang is now not only famous domestically, but also enjoys a high reputation internationally. The perfect performance of him, Mr. Hoss, and Brother Joseph in the treasure appraisal conference has made many colleagues talk about it.
Charles carefully examined the treasures that appeared at this treasure appraisal conference. After making his own calculations, he was very frustrated to find that if he went to the treasure appraisal conference, he would not be able to correctly identify all the treasures.
This also made him admire Li Yang, Mr. Hoss and others even more.
Because of this, he seemed a little excited after Li Yang's identity was confirmed.
"Wait a minute!"
Li Yang and the others had just taken two steps when the Japanese man named Matsumoto shouted again. After calling Li Yang, he turned around and said to the shop owner: "Boss Wang, I remember this plum vase."
I took a fancy to it first, so you should sell it to me, and now I ask you to sell it to me!"
His words made the male boss in the store freeze for a moment.
The store owner even wondered if he had heard wrongly. This *** person would actually make such an unreasonable request. It was incredible that he could be so shameless.
"Sorry, Mr. Matsumoto, you have given up. This gentleman and I have also completed the transaction!"
The store owner suppressed the anger in his heart and spoke slowly. Some people also started to point fingers at Matsumoto, especially those who were the first to arrive, with a bit of contempt in their eyes.
At first he said that the item was fake and he didn’t want it. Now that he knew it was real, he asked the boss to sell it to him. I really don’t know what he was thinking.
