The Book of Appreciation

Antique Street is in the new town of Florence, not far from the hotel where Wu Di lives.Looking from the west, the first one is a bit different, it is actually an antique shop that specializes in ship supplies!There are sailor's pipes, rusty anchors, and of course gold coins and jewels marked with salvage tags, and even china!

Wu Di looked at all the porcelain and shook his head. Could it be possible to salvage fakes?On the contrary, the big iron anchor is really an old antique, probably from the age of great voyages, but Wu Di doesn't have this special hobby of making a super-artistic thing and throwing it at home.

The second store was even more lackluster. Wu Di came out after looking at it twice. There are more than 70 stores in total. If you want to see them all, you need some time!

The third shop is a leather goods shop. The owner is a middle-aged man with a beard. His voice is very loud, because Wu Di heard his voice when he was still next door.

Song Ying walked into the store with Wu Di on her shoulders, and her eyes lit up when she saw the leather goods in the room.Although he didn't understand, Wu Di could tell that the boss was teaching a little boy a lesson.It must be because he was very angry, and his voice was surprisingly loud.

The little boy has blond hair and is about seven or eight years old. He is simply a miniature version of the shop owner, and the relationship between the two can be understood at a glance.The little boy had been scolded so much that he couldn't lift his head up. When he noticed a customer coming in, he quickly signaled to his father. The bearded man saw Wu Di and Wu Di from a distance, and lowered his voice a long time ago. Gently patted the little boy's head and let him go.

The little boy waved his fist covertly, looking victorious, just in time for Wu Di to see him, and couldn't help laughing.The little boy made a face at him, put a jar in his arms on the table, and slipped out of the shop.

Wu Di's eyes were immediately attracted by the decoration of the jar, it was actually a bucket with butterfly pattern!

Seeing that Wu Di seemed to be paying attention to the little boy, Song Ying smiled and said:

"The boss scolded his son for spending all the change in the piggy bank."

"Piggy bank? Could it be this fighting color jar?"

Wu Di accompanied Song Ying to look at a few bags, then he lost interest. He walked to the table and sat down. The boss wanted to strike up a conversation, but Wu Di dismissed him with an incomprehensible gesture.Seeing the boss walking over and explaining something to Song Ying, he held the jar to him and looked at it carefully.

This is a flat round bucket color jar about ten centimeters high, with a lid, and the body is painted with hibiscus, chrysanthemums, butterflies and Taihu stones, all of which are outlined with cyan glaze, and the gaps in the outline are filled with yellow, red, green and purple , the color is very bright.It's a pity that the painting seems to be a little poor, which drags down the effect of the whole porcelain, and it's easy to make people think that it's probably not a good thing.

piggy bank?The boss used this jar as a piggy bank for his son. It seems that it is really not a good thing.The characteristics of this porcelain fighting color are so obvious, you must know that this is an antique street, even if it is an antique street for foreigners, there are many real masters, if it is genuine, it would have been confiscated long ago!

Wu Di was very interested in watching Song Ying, and boredly picked up the piggy bank and looked at the bottom foot. , with flint red marks.He took a long breath lightly. It seemed that this old problem of empiricism had also happened to him.

When Wu Di began to look at the porcelain with the eyes of an appraiser, the light of this fighting color gradually appeared in front of him irresistibly like the rising sun.

Looking at the decoration again, except for the poor painting skills, the coloring is almost perfect. The combination of underglaze blue and white and overglaze colors is seamless. , everything is in line with the characteristics of Chenghua Doucai.

After looking at the decoration and the quality of the fetus, the whole porcelain has an ivory white background, slightly transparent, and it makes a crisp sound when flicked with a finger.Wu Di took off the lid, looked inside the jar, and found that the pure white porcelain surface was scratched a lot by coins, and there were two cracks the size of soybeans on the glaze!He took a deep breath, put the piggy bank away, walked to Song Ying's side, and asked:

"What are you looking at?"

Song Ying proudly shook the wallet in his hand, and Wu Di took a look. It was a brown leather wallet for men, with a small logo on the lower right corner, Armani.Wu Di smiled and asked:

"Bought it for your dad? Looks like a new one."

Song Ying glared at him and said angrily:

"It's for you! Look at your broken wallet, Goldlion is still fake!"

"Fake? I bought it for more than 200 yuan, and it was verified by the counter that it is real!"

"Even the counters are fake!"

"Impossible? That's a special counter in a big shopping mall!"

Song Ying's big eyes rolled twice,

"That means the salesperson is fake!"

Wu Di finally knew that he had been tricked by this little girl, and he spread his hands helplessly. Although the boss didn't understand, he also knew that Wu Di had eaten the head of his girlfriend, and his big yellow teeth hidden behind his beard were all exposed when he laughed with him. out.

After paying for the wallet, Wu Di pointed to the piggy bank on the table and asked:

"Boss, is that thing for sale?"

"That? That is a good thing. The Chenghua Doucai of the Ming Dynasty in China, who has been on TV, is very precious!"

"Yes, a very precious piggy bank!"

While asking Song Ying to translate, Wu Di picked up the jar and showed the boss the scratches inside.

The boss obviously has been through the rivers and lakes for a long time, and the lie was exposed. He didn't feel embarrassed at all. He wiped his beard and said with a smile:

"It's really an antique, but it's a folk kiln, not a boutique. If you want it, sir, it's [-] euros."

"Eight thousand? Eighty euros is too expensive for me!"

"No, no, at this price, I might as well keep it as a piggy bank for my son, and buy a new one, which costs more than eighty euros."

The boss shook his head like a drum, and looked very determined.

"Ninety! One hundred! Let's go, I don't know if it's an old item, it's too troublesome to buy and carry it!"

Wu Di got angry and took Song Ying away.

"Two hundred, two hundred euros and it's yours!"

The boss rolled his small eyes twice, and called out a price that made Wu Di want to laugh.The guy looked sullenly, looked into the boss's eyes, and said seriously:

"160 Euros, the final price!"

"Oh my God, you are so good at bargaining, sir, you have succeeded, 160 euros, it is yours."

Walking out of the store, Song Ying leaned over and whispered:

"That piggy bank must be precious!"

"why?"

"I've never seen you act so fake!"

Wu Di bowed his head and pleaded guilty,

"Girl, you are really amazing. If you don't study psychology, you will lose your talent! I suspect that this thing is a fighting color during the blank period. It is indeed very precious."

The blank period, also known as the dark period, generally refers to the period of Zhengtong, Jingtai, and Tianshun in the history of Jingdezhen porcelain, because no porcelain with official kiln year marks from the three dynasties was found in the world, and all that was seen were made by folk kilns. Therefore, it is called the "blank period" of Chinese porcelain.

Wu Di held the color bucket, and by the way, gave Song Ying a literacy scan.

"The orthodox emperor is the unlucky emperor who was captured in the Tumubao Incident. His younger brother Jingtai was released as soon as he came to the throne. Later, in the eighth year of Jingtai, he was successfully restored and changed his name to Tianshun. Because of the turmoil in the current situation, there was no official kiln porcelain. However, some people now say that it is because the national power is weak and cannot produce good products, so they are ashamed to put on the new year's style."

"I don't think this piece of porcelain is as good-looking as your box of hair porcelain!"

Is there such a comparison?Also, appearance is a key aspect of identifying porcelain, and Wu Di couldn't help but praise Song Ying, a layman with this standard.

This is a very small and delicate store, maybe it is more appropriate to call it a booth, it is located in the middle of two big stores, a roof is simply propped up with glass fiber reinforced plastics, and a wooden board is used to block a wall between the two walls, and then placed A long strip machine becomes a strange thing that a simple shop is not a shop, and the stall is not like a stall.What's more interesting is that there is actually a plaque hanging on the wall on one side, and there are three Chinese characters written in official script, Tongbaozhai!

The biggest things sold here are not bigger than Wu Di's palm, but they are indeed all bronze wares.In the middle of the booth, there was a pile of Huaxia copper coins. It was the first time Wu Di saw Huaxia copper coins for sale abroad, and he couldn't help feeling very interesting.

The stall owner is a young man from China. It is said that he has been doing business in Italy for ten years and specializes in bronze wares.Wu Di took a look at his booth, and sure enough, there are wine vessels, tableware, water vessels, and musical instruments, and there are actually two tiger charms!

Wu Di picked up the Tiger Talisman and said with a smile:

"Is this the Tiger Talisman that Lord Xinling used when he stole the Talisman to save Zhao?"

The young man gave Wu Di a thumbs up and praised:

"Brother, good eyesight!"

Song Yingxin thought it was true, took it over and looked at it twice, and said doubtfully:

"Then how precious is this? How did it get out of the country?"

Wu Di and the young man looked at each other and laughed at the same time. Only then did Song Ying realize that he had been tricked by these two people, put down the tiger amulet bitterly, and ran to the nearby shop.

While chatting with the young man, Wu Di picked up copper coins. Most of them were from the late Qing Dynasty.After joking for a while, Wu Di was about to find Song Ying, when the young man suddenly asked in a low voice:

"Brother, there are good things, do you want them?"

"What good stuff?"

"Bronze Mirror of the Tang Dynasty!"

"It's from the Tang Dynasty? How's the quality? Take it out and have a look. If it's good, of course I'll take it."

The young man looked around, carefully took out a small cloth bag from his arms, and wanted to hand it to Wu Di.Wu Di took out a cigarette and lit it, but he didn't reach out.The young man smiled awkwardly, opened the cloth bag, took out a dark yellow bronze mirror and put it on the booth.

Wu Di secretly smiled, this is Italy, even if the things are smuggled out of the country, do you still need to be so cautious when you get here?Brother, your acting skills are really problematic, you should watch "Actor's Self-cultivation"!
