"Kangxi official kiln?" Mr. Qian couldn't help but stood up tremblingly. The waiter standing at the door quickly ran over and handed Mr. Qian a crutch.
Only then did Shen Yu realize that Mr. Qian's leg was lame.
Mr. Qian declined the waiter's support and walked slowly to the Eight Immortals table, observing it carefully.
As soon as he appeared, Zheng Congyuan, who had been eager to try, immediately sat back.
There is no doubt that the No. 1 expert in porcelain appraisal in the field is Mr. Qian.
Although Mr. Li and Mr. Li Hanlin are more famous than Mr. Qian, have more connections than Mr. Qian, and have even better appraisal skills than Mr. Qian, his status in the porcelain circle is not as good as that of Mr. Qian.
No one else!
Mr. Qian has specialized in porcelain all his life, and has only had a handful of holes drilled on his hands. This is more important than anything else.
"Boy Lin, where did you get this bottle from?" Mr. Qian's voice was a little hoarse, but it was very loud. When he spoke, everyone in the hall could hear it.
Lin Xifeng didn't hide it, he simply said: "I want Mr. Qian to know that I bought this from a colleague when I was buying my old house in Zhuangyuan Town.
"To be honest, I'm just unlucky. I spotted this blue and white pen holder first, and I've been eyeing it for a long time.
"According to the seller, his ancestor was the head craftsman who fired porcelain in the imperial kiln factory in the porcelain capital. Because the management of the Kangxi imperial kiln was not strict when it first opened, this man took out a few official kiln blue and white pieces from the imperial kiln, and later used them as Family heirlooms are passed down from generation to generation.
"According to the seller, he sold two pieces in the early 1990s, a blue and white plum vase and a blue and white jade pot and spring vase, but the price was not high.
"The seller was reluctant to sell this pen holder from the picture of the return of the herdsman in the wind and rain because he liked it very much. However, the two grandsons of the family have recently reached the age of marriage and are planning to buy a house in the county.
"In addition, patients with chronic diseases at home need to take medicine all year round, so they have no choice but to take action.
"The seller asked for 200,000 yuan, because I didn't have enough cash with me at the time, and the other party only wanted cash, so I went to the ATM in the town to withdraw money, but I didn't know that the machine ran out of money after only withdrawing 5,000 yuan.
"In desperation, I gave the other party the 25,000 yuan in my pocket plus the 5,000 yuan I took out as a deposit, and then I went to the Guanxian County Bank counter without stopping to withdraw 170,000 yuan in cash.
"I didn't know that when I came back after withdrawing the cash, the seller actually stopped selling. When I asked, the reasons given by the seller almost made me angry to death.
"It turned out that within these short two hours, the pen holder was taken away by a fellow shoveling land.
"I was angry and anxious at the time, but I didn't do anything. The seller was over eighty years old. He went to the ground and I couldn't even get the deposit back. Others also advised me to just have fun if I could get the deposit back.
"In the end, in desperation, I spent eight times the original price, which was 1.6 million, to buy this cartridge back from the colleague who was shoveling the land."
"Oh?"
Mr. Qian nodded lightly and said nothing.
Shen Yu was quite bored sitting next to Li Hanlin. He had no interest in the stories in the antique shop, and he felt very hungry now.
Shen Yu's habit is to have breakfast after getting up early in the morning to practice boxing, but today's call from Lao Liu made him run to the flea market for help without even having time to have breakfast.
After that, I took the painting and went to my Lanting Ju. After taking out the painting, I was just about to go out to eat something, when Mr. Li called me to Zui Xian Ju again.
After a busy meal, my stomach was already growling.
Li Hanlin also heard it. He turned around and asked in a low voice: "What? Didn't you have breakfast?"
Shen Yu smiled: "I was a little busy today. I went to help my friend identify an object, but I didn't have time to eat it."
"Then let's eat some pastries to cushion our stomach. Later, Lao Li from Zuixianlou will be the host, and you and I will have a big dinner.
"Last time I appraised two antiques for him, he didn't even mention a word about the appraisal fee. You can't give this old guy a cheap price!"
"Okay, then I'll eat less first, and I'll satisfy my craving with you later!"
After saying that, Shen Yu was not polite, picked up a piece of champion cake on the tall square table and ate it.
While eating, Shen Yu thought, should he take some time to go to Zhuangyuan Town to buy his old house?
Zhuangyuan Town is a town in Guanxian County, one of the counties under the jurisdiction of Chuzhou. It is famous for Chuzhou as the birthplace of many celebrities in ancient times.
Some people have counted that since the Northern Song Dynasty, this town has produced six champions, thirteen second place winners, twenty top picks, sixty Jinshi, and hundreds of candidates.
Of course, there are a lot of gamers there. Xu Duofu was tricked by those ground rats in Zhuangyuan Town.
As for whether this bottle is true or false, Shen Yu did not use any special ability to check it. This bottle is not his own. Whether it is true or false has nothing to do with him, so why waste time and energy.
"This pen holder is good." Mr. Qian put down the blue and white pen holder and said five ambiguous words.
At this time, Shen Yu had just stuffed a piece of osmanthus cake into his mouth, but was slightly startled when he heard Qian Lao's words.
These words make you think that he is saying that this bottle is indeed from the Kangxi official kiln.
But if you taste it carefully, you will find that he didn’t say anything, because fakes can also be said to be good imitations.
"Old Li, why don't you come and take a look?" Mr. Qian limped back to his seat and said to Li Hanlin.
In terms of seniority here, the next one should be Li Hanlin. If Li Hanlin doesn't move, others won't, including Zheng Congyuan and Boss Zheng.
Except for Shen Yu and the waiters, everyone in the hall is a big antique dealer with great reputation and status in the antique shop.
Although he doesn’t have as much money as Zheng Congyuan, everyone has already had wealth and freedom, and there is no shortage of money at all.
To put it bluntly, they don't take Zheng Congyuan very seriously. They don't have many big customers like Zheng Congyuan, and they don't have one less than him. They won't kowtow to him and say, "Please come first, what do you do?"
Since Zheng Congyuan likes to play with antiques, everything must be done according to the rules of the antique shop. If the seniors don’t see it, the younger ones are naturally not qualified to see it.
Li Hanlin waved his hand, "I won't read it, let Shen Yu take a look."
"I? Uncle Li, I am not good at appraising the blue and white flowers of Kangxi official kiln!" Shen Yu declined quickly. He just wanted to be familiar with him this time and did not want to be in the limelight.
Li Hanlin glared and said, "You can see it if you want. You are Mr. Shen's only grandson. According to seniority, besides me and Lao Qian, you are the highest here. Go quickly and don't ruin Mr. Shen's reputation with some snacks."
Since Li Hanlin mentioned his grandfather's Chongzhonglou, Shen Yu had to read it even if he didn't want to. He didn't hesitate and wiped his hands with a wet towel, then dried them with a dry towel, and quickly came to the Eight Immortals table.
As soon as Shen Yu started using it, he felt that this barrel was good, as warm and moist as jade, and it was very similar to the official kilns of the Qing Dynasty.
Looking at the six-character double-line regular script inscription "Kangxi Year of the Qing Dynasty" at the bottom, Shen Yu frowned slightly when he saw it, but immediately relaxed it.
"Forget it, let's use our special abilities to take a look!"
After silently reciting a treasure appraisal, a ball of light blue treasure light condensed three inches above the pen holder, as big as a broad bean.
"This??? Is this from the late Qing Dynasty?"
After a few seconds of silence, Shen Yu immediately made a decision, "Forget it, let's look for loopholes while reading. First, let's talk about some bad identification skills and adapt to changes!"
Shen Yu really can't find out where this fake cylinder is, but now that he has come to see it, he has to tell the truth after all.
Mr. Qian can say ambiguous things because of his status.
Shen Yu asked himself that if he were to be similar to Mr. Qian, it would only be regarded as having poor eyesight and insufficient knowledge, and Mr. Li would not let him go.
Shen Yu was already familiar with blue and white porcelain. He coughed lightly and immediately expressed his opinion.
"The blue and white porcelain of the Qing Dynasty is the most famous of the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty, namely the three dynasties of Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong. Among them, the blue and white porcelain of the Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties is inferior to that of the Kang kiln. Although the Kangxi blue and white porcelain is not as good as the Ming Dynasty blue and white, it is not much different.
"Kangxi blue and white has three major characteristics: bright color, clear layers, and diverse themes.
"Bright color is very important for identifying Kangxi blue and white, but it is difficult to express it in words!
"Because whether a color is bright or not depends on how people look at it, just like wearing clothes. Some people think the color of the clothes is bright enough, but some people think it is not enough.
"So you have to compare two things, or several things, to see which one is more colorful. We can't find other official kiln porcelain from the Qing Dynasty, so we can't say whether the color of this pen holder is bright enough.
"But one thing is, the earlier the time, the better the green material, the better the green material, the better the color.
"Why are Yuan Qinghua and Yongxuan Qinghua so awesome? Why are they so good? The big reason is Su Ma Li Qing.
"The skills of future generations may become worse, but the lack of good green materials is also a very important reason, even the most important reason, because even a skilled woman cannot make a meal without rice.
"If we have to talk about color, I personally feel that the color of this pen holder has reached the color density that Kangxi official kiln should have."
After Shen Yu finished speaking, he picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. At the same time, he glanced at everyone present. Except for Li Hanlin who gave him an encouraging look, the other four people were expressionless and noncommittal.
