Live appraising treasures, I became a national treasure expert?
Chapter 409: A treasure mountain without knowing it
The unit has officially returned to work, and the street has returned to its usual bustle.
The roads in the capital were blocked again.
Li Ding'an pinched his eyebrows, changed into a more comfortable position, and lazily sat on the seat.
The car felt a little hot and dry, so Lei Mingzhen turned down the heater.
"Did you drink too much again yesterday?"
More than just yesterday?
From the first to the eighth day of junior high school, Li Ding'an felt like he was not awake even a day.
I just can’t figure it out, this stuff tastes so bad and makes you feel so uncomfortable after drinking it, why do so many people like it?
"Uncle Li and Auntie returned to Baoding?"
"Not yet. Let's go back together tomorrow. I have to see my grandparents."
"Then, you're going to Inner Mongolia again?"
"Well, the Lantern Festival is almost over."
The National Museum of China has been preparing materials for the past two days, and has to wait for approval before submitting them, as well as coordinating personnel and equipment. Li Ding'an estimates that it will take about a week at the earliest.
"Barren mountains and ridges, exposed to wind and sun, what is there to run to? No matter how many cultural relics we find, we can't be named Li?"
Lei Mingzhen had a puzzled look on his face, "You might as well stay in the capital, appraise treasures, pick up leaks, and be famous and rich!"
"Don't talk nonsense."
According to what Lei Mingzhen said, everyone engaged in the cultural, museum and archaeological industry must resign.
"What about this time, Mr. Gan, how many pieces are you going to buy?"
"Look at three things first, and then talk after you finish them."
This was an appointment made before the Chinese New Year, and Li Ding'an didn't want to be greedy. He just wanted to earn some pocket money...
The two chatted for a while before Cullinan drove into BJ No. 1 Courtyard.
Coincidentally, it is also next to Chaoyang Park, and just outside the gate is the China World Trade Center.
Standing at the door of the guard box was a young woman whom I had seen last time at Duan Mu: Mr. Gan Hui Gan's assistant.
He asked the security guard to lift the railing, and the assistant sat in the back row and led them into the community.
The two-story villa is slightly smaller than Duan Mu's house, but it is decorated in an antique style.
"Mr. Gan, please wait!"
"Teacher Li, you're welcome."
After shaking hands, several people went up the steps and crossed the threshold. Li Dingan was slightly shocked.
The first floor is almost 300 square meters. There is no partition wall in the middle, but it is full of cabinets and shelves. The objects are densely packed: porcelain, wood, copper, lacquer, silk, jade, stone... different And enough, a dazzling array of things.
The walls are covered with calligraphy and paintings, and the walls are lined with sculptures and even weapons and armor.
Suddenly, Wen Youquan's villa appeared in Li Ding'an's mind.
There is display, but here it is pure storage: bottles are squeezed next to cans, and picture frames are piled on top of picture frames.
At a rough count, there are thousands of items.
It's hard to say how much it's worth without looking carefully, but just this villa can definitely buy forty or fifty like Wen Youquan's.
But being used as a warehouse to store antiques... is not an ordinary luxury.
"Most of them are bought from abroad. If Mr. Li is interested, can I take you to have a look?"
I really want to see it, but there is no need to rush.
Li Ding'an nodded: "Let's take a look first!"
"it is good!"
The two sat down, the assistant made tea, and Gan Hui walked to the cupboard.
Lei Mingzhen looked around: "A lot of things?"
"good."
Gan Hui calls herself an "international antique dealer" and it's normal to have a lot of stuff.
"Are there many genuine ones?"
"I haven't seen it yet, so it's hard to say!"
There must be fakes, but Li Ding'an didn't see anything that was "fake at first glance", which shows that Gan Hui is not completely boasting, and she still has basic eyesight and appreciation ability.
In the space of two or three sentences, Gan Hui left and came back, holding two boxes and a thread-bound book in her hands.
It should be a piece of jade, a seal, and an engraved book. They were all agreed upon at Duan Mu's house last time, and they were also the purpose of Li Ding'an's trip.
I picked a piece at random, opened the box, and a fragment of jade came into view.
It is about the size of a palm, made of bluestone, polished throughout, inscribed with seal characters, and written in red.
There are not many words: The god who carries the sky, gathers the spirit of the earth, brings sweet wind and rain, and makes all kinds of flowers and plants flourish, which means peace and tranquility...
There should be more at the back, but the jade is broken, so this is a remnant.
Lei Mingzhen looked at it carefully: "Is this... made of stone?"
"Yellow flower stone is indeed a stone now, but in ancient times it was jade."
"What's written on it, a sacrificial inscription?"
"Almost, it looks like a prayer for rain..."
Therefore, this is a serious jade dish offering sacrifices to heaven. According to preliminary estimates, it should be from the Han Dynasty to the Wei and Jin Dynasties.
Looking at the content again, the person who presided over the sacrifice was at least one of the princes...
After taking a rough look, Li Ding'an asked the price directly: "Mr. Gan, how much is it?"
"Two million six hundred thousand!"
"Taller!"
At least twice as high.
Of course, it is impossible to verify the specific origin, determine the specific age, who wrote the book and plate, and who used it to worship heaven, so it can only be valued as an ancient jade before the Jin Dynasty.
If the source can be found, as long as the user has left a few words in the history books, it can be easily doubled or tripled...
"Teacher Li, you read it first, and we'll talk about it after you've finished it."
"it is good!"
Li Ding'an opened the second one.
One square copper seal: square, camel button, a little more than two centimeters high, and a little more than two centimeters wide.
It looks exactly like the previous "Seal of the King of Minyue", but the carving is still as rough as ever.
Looking at the seal text again, it is written in Chinese seal script: Gui Yihou Seal.
Or official seal?
"Book of the Later Han Dynasty·Hundred Officials": The king of Siyi led all the kings and became the Marquis of Guiyi... Whenever the ethnic minorities surrendered with their clans, the chiefs of small and medium-sized tribes were mostly awarded the title of Marquis of Guiyi.
Including the subsequent Cao Wei, Shu Han, and later Western Jin Dynasties, as well as the dynasties of the Five Dynasties and Sixteen Kingdoms period, all had grants. Especially in the northern region, there are Xiongnu, Xianbei, Qiang, Xi, Yuezhi, Khitan... there are so many tribes and tribes, and the number of Guiyi Hou granted by each dynasty is only seven or eight hundred, if not thousands.
Therefore, this is another object whose origin is not easy to verify.
I don’t know why, but a familiar feeling came to my mind again, exactly the same as the last time I saw the "Seal of the King of Minyue" at Duan Mu’s house.
But Li Ding'an was very sure that both the former party and this bottle seal were seeing the real thing for the first time.
I guess I have seen it in some literature or mentioned it by someone, but I can’t remember it at the moment. But at least it shows that there is a high possibility that this thing has some background.
Not having any idea at the moment, Li Ding'an casually asked the price: "Mr. Gan, how much does this one cost?"
"Three and a half million!"
Still a bit high.
Li Ding'an was noncommittal and looked at the third item.
Ming Dynasty engraving, "Tao Zhi".
This book was written in the late Ming Dynasty. It is the earliest and most comprehensive monograph on porcelain production in my country and even the world. It describes the raw material origin, production relations, and The production process, kiln building, kiln varieties, etc.
Therefore, this book is used by many ceramic research institutions as one of the reference materials for the restoration of ancient porcelain, including jian kiln lamps, as well as Ru porcelain and Jun porcelain, which are said to be "a thousand rooms in a vast building are not as good as a piece of broken porcelain".
Of course, they are all modern printed materials. This is the first time Li Ding'an has seen the ancient version of "Tao Zhi".
Putting aside the value of "Tao Zhi" itself, it is rare to see the Ming Dynasty imperial (imperial) engraving. Although it is not as exaggerated as the Song engraving of "one tael of gold for a page of Song book", it is equally rare.
Thinking about it, he opened the book... Hmm, is there a word?
It is not the font engraved in the book itself, but the pen calligraphy written later... The lines are densely packed and filled with small rope-headed regular script.
There is a disease in the brain... If this happens, wouldn't this book be useless?
At least half of it is useless...
He looked up in astonishment, and Gan Hui smiled: "It was like this when I bought it, so Teacher Li can just read it and give it some points."
Give me some?
This is not a question of more money or less, but I have never seen such a waste of things... Do you have a mine at home?
Shaking his head and sighing, he flipped through it.
The writing is very good and comprehensive, like reading notes taken while studying ancient porcelain.
Needless to say, it is quite professional, and some of its views are novel and unique, which is refreshing.
For example: white as gelatin, as plain as snow, captivating the work of nature, extremely capable of making... This is the original text, from "Shuo Porcelain" of the Ming Dynasty, which talks about the best white porcelain in the Ming Dynasty: Dehua ivory white.
The following is a note written in pen: Ivory white imitates Yongle white, which started in Yingzong and ended in Wanli. After that, it became superficial but not real.
Li Ding'an thought for a while: The ivory white glaze imitated the sweet white glaze... This was indeed the first time he had seen this statement.
Continue reading: It is clean and translucent, suitable for the heart... It is as thin as the shell of a chicken egg. It is pure and has glaze but no embryo. When it is illuminated by the sun, shadows can be seen on the outside and inside... Therefore, the Song Dynasty said The egg curtain is imitated clearly and is called sweet and white.
Note: Mingtian white glaze imitates the Song Dynasty egg curtain cup, but the porcelain embryo is only half-born.
I have seen this statement before. It is included in Lin Ziliang's porcelain research materials. When Li Ding'an wrote the "Antique Porcelain Production Plan" and specific plans for Baoli, he also borrowed some from it.
Here are the following: The body is as thin as paper, as thin as cicada wings, as bright as water essence (crystal), the light and shadow are dazzling, as light as floating clouds, a cup weighs only half a baht...
Remarks: Song Dynasty egg curtain cup.
一,坯:坯料Al2O3(氧化铝,瓷土主要成份)含量60%,添加Y2O3(氧化钇)、La2O3(氧化镧)、Sm2O3(氧化钐)……
Function: Improve mechanical properties and promote the formation of dense structures... Reduce melting point, material porosity, and grain boundary migration rate; hinder the migration of other ions and inhibit grain growth;
Adding Si3N4 (silicon nitride), Nd2O3 (neodymium oxide)...improves high temperature fracture toughness and forms highly refractory, high viscosity nitrogen-containing glass grain boundaries...
Glaze... Add magnesium oxide... Temperature: Bisque firing, 750~800℃... Use dripping glaze for internal use, spray glaze for external use, glaze thickness 0.1 mm...
Box sintering: minimum temperature 1280℃, maximum temperature 1320℃...
Li Ding'an leaned back fiercely: What is this?
This is the imitation method of egg curtain cup.
To put it another way: bodiless porcelain.
For a moment, he didn't know what to say:
After much effort and coaxing, he obtained more than a dozen pieces of imitation porcelain from Shenyang. Then, based on Lin Ziliang's research data, he worked almost nonstop and worked hard to deduce a set of plausible imitation methods.
This was still regarded as a miracle, and he was astonished as a heavenly being, and even treated as a guest.
Only then did Baoli come up with a plan to build a research institute and a plan to put thin-bodied porcelain into production.
And now, the skills that he is famous for and that he is proud of are openly recorded in an ancient book that anyone can see?
No need to guess: judging from the traces of pen and ink, these small pen characters must have been in existence for at least ten years...
And this is only second, the key is the application of those rare earth elements, as well as mechanical properties, compactness, porosity, grain boundary migration rate, ion migration, high refractory and high viscosity nitrogen-containing glass grain boundaries...
Only two things have these characteristics: those two light porcelain cups.
But just features.
Li Ding'an estimated that if the Science and Technology Innovation Bureau or relevant departments find enough raw materials and the technical support is strong enough, it will take at least years to deduce the specific process flow and technical key points of the two cups.
It's good now. Ready-made information is now available?
Suddenly, Li Ding'an felt like a beeping dog: Could this be a coincidence?
In an instant, he suddenly thought of the origin of the two seals: Thirteen years ago, when Lin Ziliang was the director, the Forbidden City was stolen, and these two seals were among them.
Good guy, I'm afraid I won't be able to figure out who made this note?
Apart from Lin Ziliang, there is no other person...
And this routine, does it look so familiar?
The cup that Qu Yanan gave to Gao Shengdong...
Feng Youran gave Lei Yuzhang the rebirth cup in a roundabout way...
Liangpinfang’s bamboo hat cup...
As an apology, the bell cup sent by Feng Youran
The sapphire cup from the Shenyang Forbidden City...
And that check that can be filled with 900 million and 900 million...
This time, it’s okay. I don’t give away cups or money, I just give out the information... It happens to be just before I am about to formulate the research direction of optical porcelain with the Science and Technology Innovation Bureau?
How about...
Whoever doesn't want it is a bastard.
Compared with that, the check of 900 million and 900 million is nothing... To be honest, if I had to take this thing out sooner, I would have done it...
In the blink of an eye, Li Ding'an had hundreds of thoughts running through his mind.
After thinking for a long time, he smiled softly: "Mr. Gan, just give me a price for these three pieces!"
Gan Hui was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"
As expected, Li Ding'an had to ask about the origin, including who wrote the words in the ancient book.
The result was no, not a single superfluous word.
Didn't he recognize it?
I really can’t tell…
Seeing that she was stunned, Li Ding'an knocked on the table again: "Mr. Gan...Mr. Gan?"
"Oh..." Gan Hui came back to her senses, "A total of three million, Teacher Li, do you think it's okay?"
Of course, you can just add two zeros at the end.
"Okay, pay the bill!"
The movement was very fast, and within two minutes, Li Dingan picked up his things and left.
No... just left like this?
Gan Hui was stunned. It wasn't until Lei Mingzhen got up and chased after her that she came back to her senses.
"Teacher Li?"
Li Ding'an turned around with an expression that was half-smiling but not smiling: "Mr. Gan, is there anything else?"
"No..." Gan Hui said in a hurry, "I just want you to visit the other collections to see if there is anything else that suits Teacher Li's eyes."
"Thank you, Mr. Gan, but I have to pay New Year's greetings to the leaders in the afternoon, maybe next time!"
"Oh...Okay...Goodbye, Teacher Li!"
"OK, bye……"
Gan Hui forced a smile and sent them out and into the car. After watching the car turn a corner, she took out her mobile phone: "Mr. Qu..."
……
Li Ding'an also took out his mobile phone: "Old Zhang, check it out for me: Gan Hui, Gan Tian Gan, Hua Hui, aged thirty-two to thirty-five, claims to be Chinese American, engaged in antique business... Where does he live? I know, but now I am in Building 16, Area A, No. 1 Courtyard, Beijing...
Phone number 139********, focus on checking whether she is in contact with anyone now, and who the contact person is in contact with... It would be better if the content of the call could be monitored..."
A sneer came over the phone: "Li Ding'an, do you think the public security department is run by your family and can investigate whoever you want?"
"Okay!" Li Ding'an opened the engraving book, found an unimportant page, took a photo and sent it, "Keep your eyes peeled to see whose handwriting is this..."
"How do I know who it belongs to? Well, holy shit... Lin Ziliang, where did it come from?"
"Oh, do you want to check it out?"
Li Dingan hung up easily.
Zhang Hanguang almost dropped his phone...
Lei Ming was really stunned, his eyes darting wildly: "Is there something wrong with the thing?"
"Don't worry, drive well!"
Li Ding'an's expression was very serious, and Lei Mingzhen immediately did not dare to say anything: The four killers in Fengcheng seemed to be still vivid in his mind...
After a while, the call came back. As soon as the call was connected, Zhang Hanguang sighed: "Found it!"
"Hurry up!"
"Guess who I checked?"
As soon as he heard this tone, he knew it had nothing to do with Lin Ziliang. Li Dingan breathed a sigh of relief: "Qu Yanan!"
"Guess again!"
"Feng Youran... maybe we should also add Lin Siqi's mother, Qi Ying!"
Zhang Hanguang paused for a moment: "How the hell do you know this and still ask me to check it?"
"Nonsense, what if it's Lin Ziliang? I'm allergic to this name now..."
"I'm allergic too. I'm not scolding you, I'm scolding Lin Ziliang... But don't worry, it's not. Guess again, what do these three women want to do?"
Li Ding'an thought for a while: "Has the news about Baoli's plan to build thin-bodied porcelain leaked?"
"Everything leaked was published in the newspapers... Feng Youran was dumbfounded: a complete set of technologies was left to her for ten years and hundreds of millions of dollars were invested, but in the end she didn't even develop it.
You're good, just a few small broken cups, in just a few months, created a tens of billions of industry... So she wants to make up for it... To put it bluntly, she still wants to cooperate with you. But what happened in Shenyang last time went too far and made you wary, so you wanted to take it step by step..."
what is this?
If he had known that this technology also involved optical military ceramics, Feng Youran would have banged his head against the wall.
Li Ding'an pondered for a moment: "Does she still have any skills in her hand that she hasn't used yet?"
To be more precise, maybe even Feng Youran himself doesn't know what other important information he has in his hands, such as the notes in this ancient book...
"I don't know, but it's none of our business!"
Of course, it is not under the control of the police, even if you want to, you can't.
Therefore, the possibility is still very high...
"What are you going to do?"
"Let's wait and see what else she can do!"
Just like playing hard to get, the longer you hold on, the more benefits you get.
The key is that I want to cooperate with her now, but I don’t have time...
Zhang Hanguang sneered: "Aren't you afraid of her harming you now?"
"You understand, I have never been afraid before!"
In the past, I was just worried because this woman was too purposeful and controlling, and she would fall into a trap if she didn't do well.
But now...it's not clear who controls whom.
In the final analysis, no matter how powerful she is, she is just a businessman.
On the other hand, from front to back, this woman has not made herself lose anything, but has given her a lot of benefits...
"Okay, that's it for now, trouble!"
"My happiness is in vain!"
Zhang Hanguang hung up the phone with a grunt.
Li Dingan breathed a sigh of relief...
……
Xuanwumen, four squares and upper garden.
Three women sat in a circle, staring at a mobile phone on the coffee table.
In the middle of the screen, it was Li Ding'an... He was flipping through the ancient book.
After at least three to five minutes, he closed the engraving... then paid and left.
Qu Yanan frowned: "He didn't recognize it?"
"how is this possible?"
Feng Youran breathed a long sigh of relief, "With only a dozen imitation porcelain cups, and only a few months, he was able to help Baoli come up with a thin-bodied porcelain project, not to mention the ready-made information in front of him?"
"What should we do now?"
"Wait, Li Ding'an is shrewd, but he is by no means a character who eats everything... Of course, he is not just waiting, he will look for it again. There should be other notes like this left by Old Lin... Sister Qi, especially There is definitely one at Lin Zixian’s place!”
"Okay!" Qi Ying nodded heavily and sighed: "Who would have thought?"
Yeah, who would have thought?
As soon as he mentioned this, Feng Youran gritted his teeth: Annual output value starts at one billion... What kind of gratitude is this?
And what Lin Ziliang has studied is not just thin-bodied porcelain?
Is it like you are sitting on a treasure mountain without knowing it, and you have wasted ten years in vain?
It’s my fault that I have to go to my grandma’s house... (End of this chapter)
