"It's okay, the capital has sent some more people over!" Qin Fen replied.
"Qin Fen, because Lao Xu was here, I couldn't ask questions before. According to my understanding of you, you must not have told us the truth. The bronze figurines are definitely not as simple as you said!" Tao Boru looked around.
He glanced at Qin Fen and asked in a low voice.
"Mr. Tao, it's not that I won't talk about this matter, but it's a little special. Besides, you know me well, and there are some things that I really can't tell you. But now that you've asked, I'll say one more thing, this bronze figurine
It’s not simple, I have to take it back to the capital, and by the way, you must keep this matter a secret for me, and you must not tell anyone!”
Seeing the seriousness on Qin Fen's face, Tao Boru's face also showed a trace of seriousness, and he nodded hurriedly: "When you say that, I probably understand. Don't worry, I will never tell this to the second person!
"
"The collection below can be said to be the best among the best. So what is this collection? Let's take out this collection."
At this moment, the auctioneer gave an impassioned speech.
Then, I saw that the hostess had placed the auction items on the booth.
"Wow...this thing is a rare and exquisite item!"
As soon as this thing was placed, I heard some surprised discussions on the scene. After Qin Fen saw this thing, his face also showed a touch of shock. Let’s not talk about the quality of this collection, just talk about the surrounding
A burst of spiritual energy was enough to surprise Qin Fen.
"This collection is a jade pot carved from Dostan in the reign of Qianlong. The jade used is Kunlun blue and white jade from our Qing Province. The carving skills of this lot can be seen, and this green and white jade is the best among the best. It can be carved like this
A shaped jade pot cannot be carved from just a piece of jade!"
“What’s the bottom price?!”
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, he heard someone shouting from the audience.
When the auctioneer saw how impatient everyone was, he knew that this item would reach a new high again.
"Okay, I guess everyone is an expert, so I won't say any more nonsense. The starting price of this jade pot is 300,000 yuan. Now everyone can bid!" As soon as the auction was over, people in the audience started to raise placards.
Already.
In less than a minute, it actually soared to 600,000.
"How about this thing from Qin Fen?!" Tao Boru on the side couldn't help but said to Qin Fen.
"Mr. Tao, you are also an expert in this field, why are you still asking me?!" Qin Fen smiled bitterly and said.
"Haha, you kid, don't you know what field I am good at?! Not to mention anything else, I can't even understand the name of this jade pot. What does Hedustan mean?!" Tao Boru laughed.
After a moment, he looked confused again.
In fact, Qin Fen knew that Tao Boru was not lying. Tao Boru's eyesight was not bad for ordinary jade, but for this kind of exquisite jade, he could only see a general idea, but he could not tell the specifics.
"Well, Mr. Tao, if you say so, then I will show off to you that this Tracestan jade was quite popular with the court during the Qing Dynasty, especially Emperor Qianlong!"
"Speaking of Emperor Qianlong, I know. It is said that Emperor Qianlong was nicknamed the Jade Porcelain Emperor, and even his descendants' names have the word "jade" next to them." Tao Boru hurriedly added.
"Yes, there is such a thing. Most of the porcelains that exist today are from the Qianlong period!" Qin Fen nodded and said.
"Qin Fen, please continue to tell me about this Hendustan. This is really the first time I have heard of this kind of jade!" Tao Boru asked eagerly.
"Actually, this Traceustan jade was from the Mughal Empire. Later, because Emperor Qianlong liked the jade from Tracestan, he began to introduce this kind of jade from foreign lands. Moreover, Traceustan jade was mostly surrounded by bowls and plates. This kind of
Jade pots are rare, and the carvings are mostly based on plants!"
"So, this thing is really considered a treasure?!" Tao Boru asked immediately.
"This thing is not rare, but they also said just now that this thing is made of Qingdustan blue and white jade, so it is said that the workmanship is made by Tracestan, not the real Tracestan jade. After all, Tracestan jade
It was very rare, and Emperor Qianlong really liked it, so he asked the palace craftsmen to start studying the carving techniques of Tracestan jade, and this one is a pretty good imitation!"
Qin Fen said to Tao Boru again.
"So that's it. We all know that Emperor Qianlong likes to collect jades. Unexpectedly, he also likes foreign jades. It seems that these jades are really liked by Emperor Qianlong."
"That's of course. During the Qianlong period, the Traceustan jades held a very important position in the palace, and the real Tracestan jades were all the same color. However, the imitations were mostly white jade or green-white jade, and except for the top-grade
Apart from Hetian green and white jade, the best is Kunlun green and white jade and nephrite, which is the current jade pot. I didn’t expect that it would be really eye-opening here.” Qin Fen couldn’t help but said with excitement.
"By the way, there is nothing to say about the craftsmanship and material of this jade pot, but it is not really from the Qianlong period. Don't let the craftsmanship affect your judgment!" Tao Boru nodded and couldn't help but remind him.
"Don't worry, it won't happen. All jades have spiritual energy. I can feel the rich spiritual energy on this jade pot as soon as it appears!" Qin Fen said with confidence.
"Your kid's vision is indeed unique. When I'm with you, I always get unexpected results." Tao Boru couldn't help but praise.
"Haha, in fact, this is the first time I have seen jadeware made by Tracestan craftsmanship, and it is also a jade pot with such exquisite carvings. Do you know, Mr. Tao?! In addition to Emperor Qianlong's many poems praising it, Ji Xiaolan also mentioned it in his
It was written in Yuewei Caotang's notes, 'Hundustan is the most skillful jade craftsman today.' This further illustrates the status of this Jade from Huntustan at that time." Qin Fen chuckled and said
.
"Every time I see you, I will definitely learn more. It seems that I will have to read more books on jade when I go back in the future, otherwise I really don't understand anything at all." Tao Boru said with a wry smile and shook his head.
"Haha, Mr. Tao, please don't say that. Let's take a look at this jade pot!"
As soon as Qin Fen finished speaking, he saw that the auction price of this jade pot had been called 1.2 million, and judging from this momentum, the price could continue to set new prices.
Qin Fen did not hold up the sign himself, and hurriedly took out his mobile phone to send a message to Qian Ming. In fact, Qian Ming had been waiting for news from Qin Fen. After all, Qin Fen was the boss of the company and had to listen to others, so when
After seeing the information, Qian Ming immediately raised the sign.
"This gentleman bids 1.25 million...is there any increase in the price?!" the auctioneer said with excitement. (To be continued)
