"Boss, there are several good antique shops on the second floor of Guomao Market, but they don't open until eight o'clock. Why don't I take you to have breakfast first? There is a shop nearby that sells fried dough sticks and pockmarks that taste very good!"
Lao Cai smiled again and looked at the sun rising in the sky. Li Yang also touched his belly. He didn't find anything good in today's morning market, which made Li Yang a little frustrated.
Then he thought about it and realized that his luck was good enough. If he could encounter rare treasures at this kind of morning market, that would be abnormal. People who are content with what they have are usually not happy. People who are too greedy usually end up badly.
After thinking about it, Li Yang followed Lao Cai to the breakfast shop with a smile. To be honest, Li Yang was really hungry. He hadn't gotten up so early in a long time.
The deep-fried dough sticks wrapped with pockmarks that Lao Cai said taste really good. There is also a kind of meat patty in the store, which tastes more delicious. Both Li Yang and Liu Gang had a great appetite. This breakfast was better than what Li Yang usually eats in the hotel.
There are many buffets.
Guomao Market is a ceramics wholesale market in Jingdezhen. There are several very good antique shops on the second floor. However, Jingdezhen does not have a professional antique street, which surprised Li Yang. Before coming, Li Yang had thought about Jingdezhen.
How developed is the ancient culture industry?
Later, Li Yang specifically asked Lao Cai, and after Lao Cai's explanation, Li Yang gradually understood.
People in Jingdezhen love porcelain most, and most of them are antique porcelain. I cannot say that everyone is like this, but it is true that there is not much market for other types of antiques here.
However, if porcelain appeared, even the folk kiln porcelain from the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China would be very popular here. Under such market conditions, it would be strange that a professional antique street could be formed.
After breakfast, it was already past eight o'clock. Lao Cai immediately took Li Yang and Liu Gang to the Guomao Market.
It was about half past eight when we got here. There were already many people wandering around the market in the morning, but these people were all porcelain dealers from various places, people who purchased porcelain and sold it back.
"Look at this, it is obviously a porcelain body from a folk kiln during the Guangxu period. From my perspective, this is a good piece of Guangxu pastel. Although it is a folk kiln, it is beautifully made and has great potential for appreciation in the future. It is worth it**
*!"
As soon as he reached the second floor, Li Yang heard a familiar voice coming from a nearby antique shop. Li Yang was slightly startled, then quickly took two steps forward and immediately arrived in front of the store.
This is a very ordinary antique shop. The second floor is as big as two rooms. There are a lot of antique porcelain and some other things on display, but not too many. It is obviously mostly porcelain.
Li Yang heard this familiar voice correctly. He was indeed a very familiar person. At this time, two young people were standing in front of the counter of the store. There was also a pastel garlic bottle in front of them. One of them was young.
The man was pointing his finger at the garlic bottle and talking nonstop.
"Xiaocan!"
Seeing this young man, Li Yang no longer hesitated and walked in quickly. This young man was none other than Li Yang's college classmate, Li Can, who currently works in an auction company.
The two young men turned back at the same time, and were slightly startled when they saw Li Yang, with a look of surprise on Li Can's face.
"Boss, why are you here?"
Li Can immediately turned around and looked at Li Yang up and down. He had not seen Li Yang since Guangzhou left. Speaking of which, of the three directors of the auction company, Li Yang was the most irresponsible one.
He almost never showed up at the company.
However, the most famous person in the company is also Li Yang. All employees know that their young director has a very famous reputation. The more famous Li Yang is outside, the more beneficial it will be for their auction company.
Li Yang can gain more influence if he is not in the company.
"I'm fine, I'm here to play, but why are you here?"
Li Yang's heart was full of surprises and surprises now. He met an old friend in a foreign country and met his classmates and friends. This made Li Yang feel even more surprised than picking up another chance.
"We were going to Huangshan to receive goods. We happened to hear someone say that someone in Jingdezhen wanted to ship goods, so we ran over to take a look. The time agreed with the owner was ten o'clock in the morning. We got up early and had nothing to do, so we went to this antique store.
Check it out!”
With a bright smile, Li Can pointed to the young man next to him and said: "This is my colleague Liu Jun. Liu Jun is amazing. He was the one who got the news that someone in Jingdezhen wanted to ship goods this time.
Also, Liu Jun is now the deputy director of the porcelain and miscellaneous department of our company!"
After saying that, Li Can hurriedly pulled the young man next to him over and introduced Li Yang to him: "By the way, Liu Jun, this is the youngest and most powerful director of our company, Director Li Yang.
Mr. Li now has a very unusual status in the antique world!"
“Turns out he’s a colleague from the company!”
Li Yang smiled and stretched out his hand. This Liu Jun gave Li Yang a familiar feeling, as if he had seen it somewhere before, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Hello, Director Li!" Liu Jun looked very polite. He didn't look very old, but he always had a strange look in his eyes when he looked at Li Yang.
"This is not a company, we are all our own people, so there is no need to be so polite!"
Li Yang smiled. The owner of the store looked like he was in his forties. He curled his lips when he heard what they said. He was also the youngest director of the company. He didn't know where he came from, a few bragging young people.
Thinking of this, the boss became a little wary. There are a lot of people doing traps these days. These people are not just scammers who want to deceive him. He has to be careful and vigilant. It is best to call two people over. These five
They are all young people. If there is any evil intention, he cannot handle it alone.
Li Yang didn't know what the boss was thinking at this time, so he asked with a smile: "What were you arguing about just now? I heard Xiao Can talking about Guangxu from a distance, Guangxu, what's going on?"
"Isn't it because the time agreed with the owner of the house has not come yet? Liu Jun and I were bored waiting, so we thought about going to the antique shop here to see if we would be lucky enough to buy some treasures to go back to. Liu Jun came here before
After passing through Jingdezhen, we knew this place, so we came together after breakfast!"
Li Can took Li Yang and walked to the counter again, pointing to the garlic bottle placed on it and said: "Boss, look, it's this garlic bottle. It's in great shape. The glaze is new and bright. It's quite well preserved."
, The quality of the fetus is exquisite, it is definitely the best among folk kilns, don’t you think so?”
It was only then that Li Yang took a closer look at the garlic bottle on the counter. Li Can was right. The garlic bottle looked very good, and the glaze was very new and bright. It looked like it had been well preserved and intact.
Porcelain. The most important thing is that the tire on the bottom of this garlic bottle can be seen at a glance as an old tire. From this point of view alone, it is definitely an old product with a wide opening.
After looking through it for a few times, Li Yang always felt that something was wrong. He looked at the glaze color on it carefully, and suddenly he felt enlightened. Then Li Yang turned on his special ability, and sure enough, all the tricks in it were exposed.
"It's a good thing. It's undoubtedly an old thing. What do you think of it, Liu Jun?"
Li Yang put down the garlic bottle and said with a smile. Li Can's face immediately showed a trace of pride. In his eyes, Li Yang now represents authority. As long as Li Yang says something is good, it will definitely be right.
.
"Director Li, the old stuff is good, but it's not entirely true!"
Liu Jun nodded slightly and said slowly. The shop owner's ears immediately stood up, and he quietly sent a message on his mobile phone, and then slowly walked towards Li Yang and the others.
"Xiaojun, the boss said that the things are good, but you still can't tell the truth. It's not like you don't know the boss's identity!"
Before Li Yang could speak, Li Can shouted urgently and winked at Liu Jun. Li Yang noticed all these little moves of Li Can, but Li Yang did not point them out.
From this little thing, Li Yang also saw that Li Can had a very good relationship with Liu Jun, and he reminded him of it just now.
"Xiao, Director Li, I'm telling the truth. I told you just now that this thing is old-fashioned, but it may not be the real thing!"
Liu Jun shook his head and spoke to Li Can but looked at Li Yang. Just now he imagined calling him Xiao Can when they were together, but as soon as he thought of Li Yang, he immediately changed his name to Li Can.
After all, he is his boss, so personal relationships cannot be used when meeting people in the company.
"You said it was an old thing, but you still said it wasn't the real thing?" Li Can asked again hurriedly.
"Xiao Can, don't speak for now. Let Liu Jun finish. Not everything is true!"
Li Yang smiled and shook his head. Li Can glanced at him in surprise, then nodded helplessly, and his eyes fell on the garlic bottle again.
"Director Li, let me tell you, this is an imitation of an old tire with new paint. The tire is old and true, but the glaze is newly painted and specially fired. I suspect that even if it is old
The fetus is not complete either, so I say this thing is not completely real!”
"Nonsense!" The store owner had already come over and shouted immediately after hearing Liu Jun's words.
"What do you young people know? It doesn't matter if you can't see the good things, but you still say that my things are old tires and new paintings? Do you know what old tires and new paintings are?"
The store owner walked over while talking. The text message had been sent, and his reinforcements would arrive in a moment. The store owner didn't care or worry about the people in front of him. After listening to Liu Jun's words, he was secretly surprised.
, come over immediately to refute.
It was just after opening in the morning, and although there were few people, it was not without customers. If other people heard it, it would definitely affect his business.
After saying these words, the shop owner took the garlic bottle over, took out a small towel and wiped it carefully a few times, as if what he was holding was a priceless treasure.
Li Yang's brows twitched, and Liu Jun had already coldly said to the shop owner: "Of course I know what repainting the old porcelain body is, using the old porcelain body or white body, reglazing it to increase its value, boss, no
