"That's great." Gao Shaoyu pretended to be happy, knowing in his heart that the two objects in front of him were of course real things. Several times in a row, they were still a little too pushy, so it was better to keep a low profile.
"This porcelain basin of yours is a colorful Magu birthday plate. This plate should be a masterpiece of the late Kangxi period. There is a blue and white double circle on the bottom with a double line of "Made in the Kangxi Year of the Qing Dynasty" written in two lines. In the picture, Magu is holding Ruyi,
Another fairy carries a dragon staff with Ganoderma lucidum hanging on it. She pulls a cart with a deer, and a wine jar is mounted on the cart. The edges of the plate are painted with turtle patterns and lotus flowers, and the four openings of the inner text read: "Longevity without Borders" in four seal characters. The center of the plate is painted with Magu offering longevity, which is authentic.
Like." Zheng Taihua nodded.
"At that time, this porcelain basin was very dirty and was abandoned aside. I picked it up by chance. It seems to be very lucky." Gao Shaoyu nodded and smiled.
"It seems that you, Xiao Gao, are very suitable for the antique business. Good things can't be picked up by others with great effort, but you can get them easily. It's impossible not to admire them." Zheng Taihua said with admiration.
"Manager Zheng, you are too generous. I am just lucky." Gao Shaoyu waved his hands and smiled.
"Okay, let's take a look at this pot." Manager Zheng was happy for a while. He wanted another piece of good porcelain under his banner. He was naturally very happy. In a blink of an eye, he was looking at the slightly flat and black pot again.
"Xiao Gao, since you bought this pot, why don't you tell me about it too."
"Okay, Manager Zheng." Gao Shaoyu nodded. Since he brought it over by himself, he didn't look at it again. He just said directly: "This pot has a knob bent into a square shape with prominent edges. The mouth is curved and the lid is curved.
It is flat, and the flat cover is a pressed cover. The cover plate is thicker, which shows the solemn and thick feeling of the pot body. The pot body is round and square, with a circle within a square and a square within a circle. The combination of square and round is ingenious. This pot was made in the Ming Dynasty.
Made by Zhou Jishan, the pot has the inscription on the bottom, 'Handmade by Jishan in the fifth year of Tianqi', and has a bell seal of 'Zhou Jishan'. It should be his Linghua style purple clay pot."
"Yes, you observed carefully. It was Zhou Jishan who did it." Zheng Taihua nodded and said with a smile, "The tea brewed in a good purple clay teapot is fragrant and smooth, refreshing and sweet when it enters the lips, and a faint fragrance will flow out of the throat.
Now that you’ve encountered the fragrance, why not give it a try?”
"Hey, I didn't know this, so let's give it a try." Gao Shaoyu said in surprise, then nodded repeatedly.
"Wait a minute." Zheng Taihua first took out a proprietary reagent to clean the purple clay pot, then rinsed it with water several times, then boiled the water and poured it in, and took out the good old tea ceremony: "
Xiao Gao wants you to taste the real West Lake Longjing today, one gram of which is comparable to the same kind of gold."
"If you can't drink such expensive tea, don't blame me, Manager Zheng." Gao Shaoyu touched his nose and said with a smile.
"Good tea doesn't require too much skill, you will feel its difference." Zheng Taihua said with a confident smile, walked over with the purple clay tea, and placed it on the table. After about two or three minutes,
Before opening the lid of the pot, you can smell a strong and clear aroma in the room. You can already feel the strong aroma without drinking it, which makes people feel happy.
Gao Shaoyu was moved for a while, couldn't help but swallow his throat, and looked at the purple clay pot spout with wisps of aroma coming out.
"Okay, let's take a sip and taste it first." Zheng Taihua smiled and stood up to get the purple clay pot.
"I'll come, Manager Zheng." Gao Shaoyu quickly stood up, picked up the purple clay pot, poured a cup each, and then the two of them began to taste tea.
"How is it? Xiao Gao." Zheng Taihua said with a smile.
"Well, the aftertaste is endless and the taste is sweet." Gao Shaoyu blurted out excitedly without thinking.
"I got this tea in exchange for a ruby red glaze dish. It made me feel distressed for a while at first, but now it's worth it to taste it." Zheng Taihua nodded and smiled.
"The ruby red glaze plate, is it the ruby red glaze plate from the Yongxuan period?" Gao Shaoyu said in surprise.
"Well, I still remember that my ruby red glaze dish was covered with red glaze on the outside, and there was a white transparent edge commonly known as the lamp grass mouth on the edge. The shape is regular and graceful, and the color is deep and gorgeous. It is quite complete and preserved.
A perfect object." Zheng Taihua said it with a bit of reluctance.
"I remember the last time I read the information, this ruby red glaze plate cost more than 200,000 yuan in 2005. If it were put now, I'm afraid the price would have doubled." Gao Shaoyu took a breath, although he is also a rich man.
, but after spending four to five hundred thousand dollars on a tea leaf, I still would never let it go.
"But people who have tasted my tea say it's worth it. Good tea is hard to find, and it's worth it if you try it first. Besides, the ruby red glaze plate may be returned to me." Zheng Taihua smiled confidently.
laughed.
Gao Shaoyu nodded, but if it were him, he would rather cash out than buy tea. Perhaps this is how different age groups view life.
Some people spend millions to buy a watch, and although some people are rich, they only like to eat and are happy to be ordinary, etc.
"Are these two items from Xiao Gao also planned to be put up for auction?" Zheng Taihua said with a smile.
"Since Manager Zheng needs a teapot, I will leave this Zhou Jishan's Linghua style purple clay teapot to you." Gao Shaoyu was also happy to lend flowers to the Buddha and said with a smile.
"Then what are you going to do with this colorful Magu birthday plate?" Zheng Taihua pointed at another object.
"I don't plan to go to the auction. I don't know if Bao Renxuan is interested in it." Gao Shaoyu scratched his head and said.
"You little naughty boy, you must be short of money again." Zheng Taihua said with a smile, looked at two items and said: "I will give you 1.2 million for two items, what do you think?"
"Okay." Gao Shaoyu nodded repeatedly. The price is not low anymore. The two items together cost more than 400,000 yuan in 2003. Now it has tripled. Bao Renxuan doesn't have much profit to speak of.
Including the hundreds of thousands he had on him, it was only over 1.3 million, which was still more than 700,000, which was a bit troublesome. I was thinking about picking up another one later, but I didn't know if it would be too late.
"By the way, there is news about the Immortal Gui Tu painted by Emperor Qianlong a few days ago. Because you are taking the college entrance examination, I haven't contacted you yet." Zheng Taihua said with a solemn expression.
"Is it possible that the contents inside are not good after being unframed?" Gao Shaoyu looked at Zheng Taihua with a solemn expression and said in a daze.
The outer layer of the Immortal Osmanthus Picture by Emperor Qianlong is still worth tens of thousands of yuan. If it is uncovered, the inside is worthless, which means that tens of thousands of dollars can be considered wasted. After all, the damage to the previous Immortal Gui Picture was relatively serious.
Once the frame is removed, the picture is almost useless.
"You'll know after you take a look." Zheng Taihua didn't say much. He pulled out a long rectangular drawer from the cabinet next to him and took out a packaged picture scroll. It was much newer than before.
