This is a typical dice bowl from the Xuande period. The dice bowl is a gaming tool. In today’s terms, it is used for gambling. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, many people in the palace liked to play this game.
“Boss, there’s nothing wrong with this bowl, right?”
Seeing that Li Yang's brows were still furrowed tightly, Li Can couldn't help but ask. This bowl is also an important item this time, and its value is higher than the white-glazed green pot.
Moreover, this can be regarded as Li Can's final contribution to his position as head of the porcelain department. No matter from what point of view, Li Can does not want to let this bowl have any problems.
"Dr. Li, look at the curved wall of the bowl, the open mouth, the ring feet, and the tire walls are all very thick, and the exposed areas on the soles are slightly flint red. These are typical features of Xuande porcelain!
"
Liu Jun also took a step forward and said something. He was also a little nervous. He didn't doubt Li Yang's strength, but if there were big mistakes when he just took over the position of director of the porcelain department, he probably wouldn't either.
I would be embarrassed to continue being this supervisor.
Li Yang shook his head slightly and said again: "I know this, let me take a look!"
When Li Yang said this, even Sima Lin, who didn't know anything about antiques, knew that there might be something wrong with this bowl. Everyone closed their mouths and looked at Li Yang quietly. This is an important weapon of the company.
The highlight of the first opening auction, no one wants something like this to happen.
Li Yang handed the bowl to his eyes and looked at the glaze color carefully. The white glaze was slightly green, pure and thick, and the accumulated glaze was crisp and deep. This phenomenon is commonly known as "bright green glaze". The bottom of the bowl has no glaze.
, there were red spots of flint, and under the red spots, a careful and hard carcass was exposed.
Looking at the outer wall of the wrist bowl, there are patterns of folded branches and auspicious fruits, as well as pomegranates, longevity peaches, loquats, persimmons, grapes, watermelons and other patterns. These patterns are all very exquisitely painted, and the green material used is also Suma Liqing material.
.
The blue and white patterns on the bowl are thick and light, with the deep parts being black, and the light parts being faintly visible under the white glaze. This is a typical phenomenon of pigment dispersion, which can make the picture extremely three-dimensional. This is also a typical feature of Xuande blue and white.
No matter from any point of view, this is a very good Xuande blue and white. Except for Li Yang, several other knowledgeable people took a closer look at it and finally shook their heads.
If there is really a problem with something like this, it can only be said that the imitation is very clever.
Li Yang didn't find the problem, so he simply activated his special ability. Under the three-dimensional screen, a layer of light yellow halo on the bowl was immediately revealed. Li Yang was slightly stunned, and then placed the bowl where it was.
Li Yang's heart beat a little faster. Li Yang could see at a glance under the three-dimensional screen that this was a high imitation, and it was also a high imitation that had many similarities with the three blue and white pieces. The level of imitation was higher than what Li Yang had done in Jingdezhen.
The yellow glazed plate I brought back was much more impressive.
"Li Yang, is there really anything wrong with this bowl?"
Zheng Kaida also walked up to Li Yang and asked in a low voice. When this bowl first arrived at the company, Zheng Kaida had repeatedly praised it. If it weren't for the auction, Zheng Kaida would have thought about staying and doing it himself. So
Good blue and white bowls are rare.
"I'm not sure yet. How about this? Brother Zheng, if you have nothing to do this afternoon, I'll ask you to take a hard trip and take this bowl to Mingyang and let Mr. He give it a try again!"
Li Yang slowly shook his head, Zheng Kaida was in a daze, and Li Can and Liu Jun's faces had become dull.
You can't tell, this is a jargon they have said many times before, which means there is really something wrong with this bowl. If not, Li Yang would not have said such a thing.
As for taking back Mingyang and asking Mr. He to be the palmer, in their minds, it was just a reason for Li Yang to give them a step down. Li Yang's level was already top-notch. If he said there was something wrong, how could it still be fake?
?
Zheng Kaida nodded with some understanding.
If there was really something wrong with this bowl, if it was really a fake, after Li Yang pointed it out, they would just take the product out. However, Li Yang insisted on sending it to He Lao and asked him to deliver it in person. It was very possible that there was something wrong with it.
There are other problems.
Zheng Kaida would not think about the steps Li Yang gave to Li Can and Liu Jun. There were many kinds of steps, so there was no need to disturb Mr. He. Moreover, he was asked to leave in such a hurry and go in the afternoon. The reason why Li Yang did this
It's very possible that this bowl has something to do with the highly simulated one.
Thinking of this, Zheng Kaida looked back at Sima Lin, and Sima Lin also thought of this.
Looking at the bowl, both of them felt very unhappy at this moment. Anyone who received a fake would probably not be happy, and both of them felt a little lucky at the same time. Fortunately, Li Yang came, and fortunately they were not greedy before.
, if this piece of porcelain is really auctioned, and finally a buyer comes to visit, the credibility they have just established will immediately fall to the lowest point.
Although they do not have to lose money, reputation is more important than money. It is difficult to establish and easy to lose.
"I happen to have something to go back to Mingyang in a while, so I will take this thing back with me. Li Yang, why don't you stay here and look at other things!"
Zheng Kaida said again, Li Yang asked him to leave in the afternoon, but he asked to leave now, which also meant to test whether the problem was serious. There were too many people here, and it was not convenient for them to say some things clearly.
"That's fine, Brother Zheng, thank you for your hard work!"
Li Yang nodded without thinking. This bowl can be used as a new clue. Now any clue is very important for the investigation. If he can tell Mr. He earlier, he will be more certain to find out the mastermind behind the scenes.
"Okay, I understand!"
Zheng Kaida's heart suddenly shuddered. His guess was right. Li Yang actually asked him to send it now without hesitation. It must be related to high-quality imitations. Or, this item is the same high-quality as the three dropped items.
Imitation.
The only one at the scene who understood the meaning was Sima Lin, while the others looked a little confused.
Li Can and Liu Jun's faces were still very ugly, but when Zheng Kaida asked them, they both showed questioning looks. Even if they really wanted to find someone to re-open their eyes, there was no need to go in such a hurry. They immediately listened to Zheng Kaida's excuse.
Know what's going on.
"Sima, I will leave it to you to entertain Brother Li. If my affairs go well, maybe I will be back in the afternoon, tomorrow at the latest, and we will have a good gathering by then!"
Zheng Kaida found a plastic box, laid it with foam, carefully placed the bowl inside, said hello to everyone, and then really left.
Zheng Kaida also understood the significance of delivering things to Mr. He early.
Looking at Zheng Kaida leaving, Li Can and Liu Jun opened their mouths again. Li Can suddenly walked up to Li Yang and asked in a low voice: "Boss, can you just give me a clear explanation? Is there anything wrong with that thing?"
?”
Liu Jun also walked over and looked at Li Yang longingly. He was so smart that he already sensed that something was wrong.
"I'll tell you about this later. By the way, tell me the address and contact number of the owner of this bowl later. I'll be useful!"
Li Yang sighed softly. There was definitely something wrong with the thing, but telling his brothers would definitely be a blow. Let them guess for themselves.
Li Can and Liu Jun were not stupid. As soon as Li Yang asked for the contact information of the owner of the goods, they understood that there was something wrong with this thing. For a moment, both of them turned pale, especially Liu Jun, who didn't even think about it.
How uncomfortable it is.
It is true that Li Can took the initiative to accept the things, but he was also the one who followed them, which meant that he also slapped the eyes and caused losses to the company. This was very difficult to accept for Liu Jun, who had just been promoted to the head of the porcelain department.
Li Can is not much better. He is no longer in the porcelain department, but this bowl is his last achievement. He thought he was leaving his original position in a graceful manner, but he did not expect that such an incident would happen.
Come.
"Don't worry, I can't guarantee that there is something wrong with this thing. The results will be available after He Lao has appraised it!"
Li Yang stepped forward and patted the two of them on the shoulders. At this time, he could only persuade them to tell the fake things to be true. Li Yang could not do such a thing.
"That's right, don't worry about it. Everyone is happy that Li Yang is here today. Brother Li, you are looking at other things. I have arranged the restaurant. Let's have a good drink at noon!"
Sima Lin laughed loudly, Li Yang nodded, and the special ability expanded immediately, covering everything inside.
The things in the treasure house are all very good, only a few pieces have a layer of light yellow halo. But these things are all modern works of art, including Shoushan stone carvings and some modern calligraphy and paintings. Except for the dice bowl, Li Yang has no
Found other fakes.
This can also be seen that the company's expert level is still very good. If Li Yang didn't have special abilities, he might have been fooled. Li Can and Liu Jun can't be blamed. If we are to blame, we can only blame this imitation.
It was so true that they were fooled.
Li Yang walked around inside, carefully admiring the contents for a while, and then left the treasure house with everyone when it was almost noon.
There are several good things in the treasure house. Among them, the ancient sword that Zheng Kaida received at the *** is in it, as well as some things that Zheng Kaida collected in other places. They are all used as foils to be auctioned in this auction.
Go out. Ancient swords belong to a niche category, but having something like this may attract many collectors with relatively good quality, which will be of great help to the auction.
The lunch meal was indeed very rich, but Li Can and Liu Jun obviously didn't have a high appetite. In the end, Li Yang persuaded them to feel relieved, but they were still not in high spirits.
After dinner, Li Yang went to the Zhengzhou International Convention and Exhibition Center and handed the longevity bowl to Dean Huang, who came back specially. Dean Huang showed obvious desire when he saw the pair of longevity bowls, but Li Yang just smiled.
He shook his head and left without giving Dean Huang a chance to speak.
Li Yang is not afraid that Dean Huang will not return the things he borrowed. Dean Huang can't do such a thing. Besides, Li Yang has He Lao's support behind him. If he really wants to refuse to give it to him, he has to consider whether he can support it.
