Chapter 656 Genuine Xuande Furnace
…
According to the etiquette of the Shang Dynasty, many of these are missing, but this is obviously from the tomb of a Shang Dynasty noble. Mao Liang and the people behind him did not hesitate to use them to frame themselves. I am afraid these things have been
The police department is on their radar.
So these things are really hot to put in my hands, but Liu Dong is a little reluctant to give them back! After all, these are national treasure-level cultural relics.
"Forget it, let's see what the situation is like! If it doesn't work out, I'll trick those bastards by 'treating them the way they treat me'!" After making up his mind, Liu Dong put away the bronzes again.
Seeing that it was still early, Liu Dong didn't want to waste time in the hotel. Today happened to be the time for the antique fair on the fifth floor of the Zhengzhou Antique City on Sunday. As the second largest antique market in the country, those who set up stalls must definitely
There are quite a few, and there are more opportunities to pick up leaks. In order to make the Chenxiangge Zhengzhou branch stand firm, Liu Dong must prepare more good things for it that can be used, and of course it can also enrich his collection.
Thinking of this, Liu Dong didn't bother Chen Xiang and the others, and went straight downstairs. Because this hotel was not far from the antique city, Liu Dong didn't drive and walked downstairs for about ten minutes.
Coming here for the second time, Liu Dong was quite familiar with the place, and soon reached the fifth floor. At this moment, the hall, which was originally empty yesterday afternoon, has now become as noisy as a vegetable market, with rows of antique stalls.
Like soldiers in formation, there were 12 rows nearly 100 meters long and two meters wide in the hall. Each row was filled with bustling crowds.
Seeing the crowds of people in the hall, vendors and bargain hunters bargaining, Liu Dong felt a sense of intimacy in his heart. He liked this scene the best!
After only ten minutes of shopping, Liu Dong had already accumulated several good items in his hands. None of them were too expensive, but it would not be a problem to sell them for tens of thousands of yuan.
"Hey, I finally picked up a decent treasure!" He thought to himself. Liu Dong squatted down in front of an antique stall, and then without doing anything to hide it, he directly picked up a dirty-looking copper from the stall.
After looking at the stove for more than ten seconds, he said directly, "Boss, this stove is dirty. Was it just dug out of the ground?"
"Haha, little brother, don't say this nonsense. This is a treasure furnace that our family has used for generations to burn incense and worship the gods. It is a serious Ming Dynasty Xuande furnace. Good stuff!" Maybe Liu Dong is young and easy to fool, he is in his thirties.
, the middle-aged boss wearing a dark red T-shirt said to Liu Dong with an expression of "These are all secrets".
Of course, Liu Dong obviously doesn't stick to the same style. Of course, the middle-aged boss was right. This dirty skirt has a short and thin neck, a flat and bulging belly, three blunt tapered feet, and double bridge ears.
The furnace, which is 30 centimeters taller and 18 centimeters in diameter, is indeed a serious Ming Dynasty Xuande furnace, and it is one of the three thousand treasure furnaces cast during the Xuande Dynasty!
It's a pity that the surface of this stove has been painted with several thick layers of raw lacquer, which not only covers up the original smooth and delicate appearance of the stove, but even the Xuande inscription on the ground can't be seen!
Perhaps because it looked more like an antique because of the tatters, the boss didn't remove the raw lacquer on the stove, and just left it there in dust, letting a treasure that can be called a first-class cultural relic be covered in dust!
But if this were not the case, it would not be Liu Dong’s turn to pick it up!
"Boss, don't look at me because I'm young, but I also know how to identify! There are hundreds of thousands of fakes all over the world claiming to be Xuande stoves. Just yours, I think... it's dangling!" Liu Dong disguised himself as a
People who don't know the business will expose the boss directly.
"Haha, Jia San, it seems that this stove of yours cannot be sold at all. Even a layman can tell that this thing is a fake. Why do you think you are still putting it here?"
"That's right, Jia San, you'd better take it back and use it yourself. It's just in time for your wife to worship God during the holidays, haha!"
The antique stall owners on both sides of the middle-aged man couldn't help but laugh after Liu Dong finished speaking. It could be seen that the relationship between them should be good.
"Fuck you, didn't you see that I'm doing business?... Little brother, if you really want this stove, just take it for 200 yuan, or else I'll do what these two bastards said, take it back to me
My wife used it!" the middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Here, 200, I want this stove!" Liu Dong could not let this Xuande treasure stove become a decoration for women to worship gods. The heavily guarded museum is where it should stay.
"Hey, I really bought it! Little brother, come to my place and have a look, I'm sure they are all real things!"
"Okay, Liu Laoer, I don't even want that crap thing you gave me. You should come to my place and have a look, little brother. The stuff is cheap and the craftsmanship is superb!"
Seeing that Liu Dong really bought the 'broken stove' for 200 yuan, the surrounding antique stall owners started to make noises. In their eyes, people like Liu Dong were simply a piece of plump and attractive beef, and they would be severely punished if caught.
Take a bite.
Unfortunately, there was nothing in their stall that attracted Liu Dong to stop. After putting the Xuande furnace into the backpack at the back, he ignored these guys who used various words to seduce him, got up and left directly!
For the whole afternoon, Liu Dong basically spent time in the market on the fifth floor of the Antique City. Liu Dong picked up more than a dozen antiques of all sizes, but only one that could be compared with the unexpected Xuande stove.
There are no pieces left. The most valuable thing left is a 30 cm high boxwood statue of Han Zhongli, one of the Eight Immortals of the Ming Dynasty, worth about 100,000!
"Mr. Liu Dong?"
Liu Dong, who was about to go downstairs, heard a somewhat tentative shout from the right, and couldn't help but stop and look over.
Noticing Liu Dong's movements, a middle-aged man wearing dark brown short-sleeves and brown trousers who looked very clean walked over with excitement.
"I didn't expect to meet Mr. Liu here. What a pleasure to meet him!"
"Hello, we don't seem to know each other?" Out of politeness, Liu Dong shook hands with the other party.
"Haha, it's normal that I don't know Mr. Liu, but yesterday Mr. Liu angrily smashed the Ming Dynasty Yongle blue and white flat pot, and his action of distinguishing the true from the false is really admirable. My Majesty Luo Peijin, after witnessing what Mr. Liu did at that time, he was suddenly stunned
I really wanted to make friends, but it was a pity that Mr. Liu left too quickly and was never able to fulfill his wish. I feel deeply regretful in my heart. It is really an honor for Luo to meet Mr. Liu again here! If it is convenient for Mr. Liu, please come to the small
As soon as we sit down in the shop, I will definitely serve Mr. Liu good tea!"
After listening to what this person said, Liu Dong was really confused. Looking at the excited look on this middle-aged man's face, he felt like a star in movies and TV shows now!
After shaking his head inwardly for a while, Liu Dong didn't refuse him seeing how enthusiastic he was.
Soon the two of them arrived on the third floor, and then stopped in front of an antique shop called "Guyizhai" not far from the Chenxiangge branch that was being renovated.
"Mr. Luo also runs an antique business?" Liu Dong said.
"Yes, I'm just very ashamed. Because of my limited abilities, I can barely make ends meet until now. Please come in, Mr. Liu!"
After nodding, Liu Dong walked in.
Guyi Zhai is not big, just over 100 square meters. There are various antiques, porcelain, calligraphy and paintings, miscellaneous items, and antique bronzes placed on the surrounding display racks.
At the counter next to the door, a middle-aged woman in her thirties who seemed to be well-maintained was immersed in writing something. After the two came in, the woman heard the movement and immediately looked up.
"Honey, this is Mr. Liu Dongliu whom I told you yesterday. Mr. Liu is the real appraiser!"
Listening to her husband's introduction, when the middle-aged woman saw Liu Dong, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes. The person in front of her was so young that she had not expected!
"Hello, Mr. Liu, I have long admired your name!"
"You're welcome!" After briefly shaking hands with the other party, Liu Dong looked at the middle-aged man next to him and said: "Mr. Luo, you are so angry that you pulled me over. I'm afraid you don't just want to have a simple chat with me.
Let’s talk?”
Hearing this, the middle-aged man named Luo couldn't help but show a hint of embarrassment on his face.
Seeing that her husband was silent, the middle-aged woman next to her quickly said: "Mr. Liu, we have a piece of porcelain here. Please help us appraise it. Don't worry, we will definitely pay you less for the appraisal fee!"
"Appraisal of porcelain?" After a brief pause, Liu Dong guessed: "I'm afraid this piece of porcelain has something to do with Wu Yonglun, right?"
"Mr. Liu is right. Two months ago, a treasure appraisal like yesterday was held here. Among them, a blue and white jade pot and spring vase was identified by Wu Yonglun as an official kiln of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty. I saw it at that time.
I also liked it, so after bargaining several times, I bought it for 2 million!" Luo Peijin said.
"2 million?" Liu Dong couldn't help but shook his head. As long as the official kiln porcelain of the third dynasty of the Qing Dynasty is in complete condition and is not a small piece, it will not be less than 4 million, and this is still the market price, not the auction price!
Therefore, as long as it is authenticated as genuine, even if you need money urgently, no fool will discount it so much. Now it seems that this person surnamed Luo was probably deceived by high imitation.
Of course, the change in Liu Dong's expression was noticed by Luo Peijin. He is also a person in the antique industry, and he had a rough guess about Liu Dong's thoughts. Unfortunately, at that time, he was overwhelmed by the joy of being able to purchase a fine porcelain from the third generation of the Qing Dynasty.
He has lost his mind and even forgotten the most basic common sense!
After secretly smiling bitterly and shaking his head, Luo Peijin said: "I would also like to ask Mr. Liu to help identify it. Then I can make a conclusion whether it is true or false. If it is really a fake, then I will give up!"
