It can be said that Bai Yunfei has been learning antique appraisal for a long time. Although he is not as good as those masters, he still knows the key points of appraising some porcelain, so he had doubts in his heart and took a look at the vase.
There was nothing wrong with the vase's glaze, and there were no clues about the pattern or opening. After repeated inspections, he still didn't believe that the vase was fake.
After confirming again, Bai Yunfei really didn't believe that what Qiao Meng said was right, so he said with a smile: "Young Master Qiao, feel free to tell me what you think. If you have any questions, we can all gain insights."
"Okay then, I'm going to say it, don't regret it."
"No regrets."
Qiao Meng pretended to be embarrassed and said: "Actually, this thing is really good, and the craftsmanship level can be considered top-notch, but this does not mean that it is authentic, because the vase was fired in the Qing Dynasty and was not completed. I don't know.
How come it was discovered by later generations and then continued to be processed? The finished product may not have lasted more than three years."
Bai Yunfei heard it quite well at first, but he didn't expect that after hearing it, he felt more and more wrong. After a while, he asked with disbelief: "What? You actually said that this is a semi-finished product that was processed the day after tomorrow?"
?”
"Yeah, I didn't want to either. Who knew it was a semi-finished product that was processed the day after tomorrow, and it's obvious that I can tell. I just don't know why you keep wanting it, buddy." Qiao Meng said with a half-smile.
"What the hell are you talking about? This is obviously a perfect finished product. How could it be a post-processed imitation? You must be trying to fool me!"
Hearing what Qiao Meng said, Bai Yunfei who was standing aside suddenly became a little anxious. This vase was obviously the one he had seen before. He had received news that this vase was good and was given to him by an expert in treasure appraisal. How could there be any mistake?
, he couldn't believe it.
After Bai Yunfei thought for a while, he smiled and asked Qiao Meng: "Young Master Qiao, I don't know how you came to believe that this vase was not fired in the Qing Dynasty?"
Qiao Meng took the trouble to explain: "In fact, there are several points that can prove it. First of all, the glaze color of this vase is relatively turbid. Generally speaking, the glaze color of the Qianlong period is relatively clear and bright."
"Secondly, the patterns in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty are very regular and not such an intricate and chaotic phenomenon. You can still distinguish them if you look carefully."
"In addition, because the finished product in the early stage has not completed all the processes of glaze and tread, it will not fit properly if processed later. This can be understood by looking at the bottom of the bottle, which has a circle of tiny gaps."
"There's more!" Having said this, Qiao Meng picked up the vase, tapped it a few times, and said:
"Everyone should have heard a thick but uneven sound, indicating that this porcelain was not fired at one time. These points can already prove that this vase was not fired during the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty.
The imitation of the signature is very realistic. However, this does not prevent me from collecting the decorations. I hope Brother Yunfei will take care of himself."
After listening to Qiao Meng's explanation, Li Ka finally understood. No wonder he felt something was wrong just now. At first, he thought he had heard it wrong. It turned out that it was not fired at once!
Bai Yunfei looked at the Qing Qianlong pastel nine peach vase that he had just taken for a while, then raised his head and said with a smile: "Young Master Qiao is really worthy of being the beloved disciple of God. He has a lot of experience. In this case
I also want to ask one more question, since you are so powerful and you know it is a synthetic product, why did you still want to compete with me before?"
Although Bai Yunfei had a smile on his face, there was a hint of gnashing of teeth in Qiao Meng's eyes. Of course, he didn't care about that, so he sighed softly and said with a wry smile: "Oh, I'm ashamed to say that. My
My eyesight is still a bit weak, not as good as my master Tianlao, and the time I saw just now was so short, so why am I so anxious to see clearly?"
"You also know that if this is genuine, it will be a rare and rare treasure. Wouldn't it be a pity if you miss it? Anyway, even if it is fake, it only costs 10 to 20 million. I think it's a good idea to buy it.
It’s a treat!”
"Haha, that's good!" Bai Yunfei said angrily and with a smile: "You are such a good person, you can buy and treat, Young Master Qiao is really rich!"
As soon as the words were said, the young master came up and added more jealously: "Oh, there are some people who know that they are not good enough and have to do it. They have a brain but don't like to use it. It's so pitiful."
When Bai Yunfei heard this, he felt that the anger in his chest could hardly be suppressed. He picked up the things, then took a deep look at Qiao Meng and Mr. Bai, turned around and walked towards the door, even looking back during the process.
Bai Du, who had been silent all this time, was very angry. In his eyes, the silent ridicule was more intolerable than any words, and he even wanted to strangle the three of them to death right now.
When He Qizheng saw the dispute between the two parties, he couldn't help but secretly said something bad. Although what Qiao Meng did just now was a bit inappropriate, he agreed to all of it, so he couldn't blame Qiao Meng.
In the final analysis, the cause of this matter is information asymmetry. If he knew that Qiao Meng was Tianlao's disciple, he would not agree to Bai Yunfei's previous request even if he were killed. Fortunately, Bai Yunfei left, otherwise the two parties would not be on speaking terms.
If a fight breaks out, his boss above him will definitely not be able to spare him.
You must know that this old man was originally a person who was favored by the high-level officials of Kyoto Antiques. He was repeatedly invited to join the National Treasure Appraisal Association in Kyoto. How can such a famous apprentice be far behind?
Now Bai Yunfei has suffered a hidden loss. There is no way to retaliate in a place like Kyoto. Wouldn't someone who can open a black market here have some power?
And it has definitely penetrated into the high-level organizations of Kyoto, which is beyond the power of a little Bai Yunfei like him. It is okay to say that it is fine in S District, but here he can only break his front teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
"Thank you sir for your wonderful explanation, we all learned a lot, haha..." He Qizheng said with a smile.
bite--
Just when He Qi was about to say the next sentence, he heard the ringing of the doorbell. This sudden ringing shocked everyone. After all, this is a black market. If something really happens, what should be done to these guests?
I said, it's not that big of a deal, but I won't feel comfortable when I go outside from now on.
Compared with others, He Qizheng is undoubtedly more nervous, but there is nothing we can do about it. Who allowed the black market in so many places to be traced out some time ago? Why should a major reseller like him be sentenced to five or six years?
It's basically divided.
At this time, a bodyguard standing at the door quickly looked out of the peephole. He was shocked when he saw it, and then quickly let He Qi pass.
Seeing this, He Qizheng thought it was really a policeman outside, and his whole body felt weak immediately. He didn't know what to do. Fortunately, the bodyguard immediately reminded him that it was okay, and he was not a policeman, otherwise he would be paralyzed on the ground and unable to get up.
He Qizheng walked to the door and looked out through the peephole. He was also surprised. Then he immediately opened the door honestly and said hello: "Oh boss, why are you here?"
"It's nothing. I'll come over with my friend to take a look. You can continue to do your own thing." The man who came in first replied.
He Qizheng's boss is a man in his thirties. He looks a little chubby but not weak. Looking at his appearance alone, you might think that this man is kind and honest, but anyone with eyesight can see it in his eyes.
This person is definitely not simple.
"Please come in, we are preparing to get the next treasure now." He Qizheng said respectfully.
In fact, this boss has accompanied his friend here several times, and He Qizheng also heard that this friend is a big shot who never sees the end of the world, so He Qizheng is completely flattering now.
It's just that when He Qizheng saw the appearance of his friend in front of him, he couldn't help but murmur in his heart, why did the young master Qiao there seem to have a similar appearance to this person? Moreover, both of them were named Qiao, and this person was called Qiao Tianfeng. Could it be that this person is called Qiao Tianfeng?
What's the connection there?
"Adé, I'm really troubling you today, go and do your work!" Qiao Tianfeng said.
"Okay, you are my eldest brother. What do we have to worry about? As long as you have something you want, we will immediately arrange it." Wang De said.
"No need, I just took Xiaoyun out for some fresh air today." Qiao Tianfeng said.
Qiao Meng heard the voice and didn't know who it was, but when he saw the person coming, he couldn't help being surprised. He actually looked a bit like himself, and both had the same surname: Qiao. Now he began to doubt that he was really a member of the Qiao family.
Qiao Tianfeng walked in from the door, and behind him was a young beauty.
The little beauty doesn't look very old, but she is very pretty, with big bright eyes and long black hair hanging down. She looks like a little princess in a white dress.
When she walked in, almost everyone in the room looked at her.
When Qiao Tianfeng saw Qiao Meng there, he couldn't help but was slightly startled. He felt familiar somehow, so he pulled the little beauty and walked towards Qiao Meng.
Seeing Qiao Tianfeng coming, Qiao Meng, Young Master Bai and Bai Du all stood up and said hello, but except for Qiao Meng, the others seemed more reserved and didn't know why.
Qiao Tianfeng first introduced each other to Li Ka, and then said to Qiao Meng: "I wonder what I call my little brother?"
"My name is Qiao Meng. Senior, you can call me Xiao Meng." Qiao Meng knew that this must be a boss-level figure, so he didn't dare to make any mistakes.
"Haha, I am destined to be with you. We are all named Qiao, so maybe we are a family." Qiao Tianfeng said, and then said: "This is my daughter Xiaoyun. I just brought her here to play today. You continue to ignore us.
."
Qiao Meng wouldn't dare to refute what the boss said, and he couldn't be so polite when others were polite. Since he wanted to come to his door to get acquainted, why didn't he seize the opportunity? Moreover, the Qiao family might really be related to his life experience, so why not just go with it?
If you continue to explore the route, you might gain something.
After thinking about it clearly, Qiao Meng took out an jade bracelet she was carrying. It was made from the previous emperor jade and had been with her for a long time. She originally wanted to give it to Yao Miaomiao, but she hadn't yet.
Come back, I just want to use it now and think of ways to make up for it later.
