The Book of Appreciation

Seeing that there was nothing worth selling in the store, Wu Di freely handed over the task of bargaining to the military division, with a target of [-] yuan!After a [-]% discount of [-], it becomes [-], which is very close to this goal!

Next door to this shop is a large shop that specializes in Western antique furniture.Wu Di remembered that the jewelry box he bought last time was good, so he walked in.

There are many types of jewelry boxes in this shop, and there are more high-quality goods. He carefully selected six and was about to pay the bill when he saw the military division walking in with a heavy clepsydra.

"Fifth brother, it cost thirty-three thousand."

Wu Di nodded, car accessories are not about the price, but the key is that they are so rare among folks.

"Exactly, there are still [-] yuan here. You pay the money with one dollar, and then send the things back first, and exchange the big cow by the way. The two stone gambling shops still have a few pieces of wool for you to go."

The boss led the military division to the counter to check out, and Wu Di stood there and used his perspective eyes to confirm the number and price of the wool he needed to buy.At this time, a female shopping guide opened the door of a cabinet, took out two identical pastel gourd bottles, and gently placed them on an antique piano beside them.

Wu Di's gaze could not help but follow her movements and turned, Qianlong Wanshou Lianyan pastel gourd bottle?Still a couple?

Qianlong Longevity Longevity Pastel Gourd Vase, the entire body of the bottle is decorated with twining flower patterns, and a continuous red longevity character spreads all over the body, which is a standard shape of Qianlong official kilns.

But this seemingly ordinary bottle easily broke the auction record of 2.3 million yuan for the "Yuan Blue and White Ghost Valley Down the Mountain Jar" in China!Because just six months ago at Sotheby's Hong Kong auction, it was sold at a sky-high price of 2.566 million yuan, which caused a sensation in the entire collection industry!

This kind of pastel porcelain was not favored in the past.One is because there is no theme pattern, and the flower theme is too common; the other is that the bottom is alum red.In terms of style, the blue material square seal style is the first, the blue and white style is second, and the alum red style is only the third; the third is the general shape of the bottle, which is very vulgar.Therefore, the estimated price at the beginning of the auction was only 3000 million Hong Kong dollars, but the world is like this, and no one would have expected that such a stylized Qianlong official kiln would create such a miracle.

The gourd vase auctioned has a long history, and it was collected by the "Fangshan Residence" in Wiltshire, southwest England. "Fangshanju" was originally James, the richest man in Britain in the 19th century?A country mansion in Morrison, which has been used by the Morrison family as a display place for their art collection.

In the collection of "Fangshanju", a considerable part and the most important part are Chinese artworks, including various porcelains, enamelware, sculptures, etc. This is why "Fangshanju" can have such a Chinese artistic conception and poetry. An important reason for the Chinese name of love.

These two bottles are simple in shape, pink and soft in color, and the color transition is even, almost resembling the real one.Wu Di picked up one at random, looked at it for a while, and decided to buy them all. It would be a good choice to take them back and put them on the shelf in the main room.

"How much is this?"

"Sir, this is a high imitation Qianlong Wanshou Lianyan famille rose gourd vase produced by Porcelain City. You can own one for only two thousand euros."

Wu Di smiled, the price of two thousand euros seems to be cheaper than domestic ones.

"Three thousand euros, I took both."

The store owner who just came over after the delivery heard it and nodded with a smile.

"Mr. is our big customer. This discount is deserved. Anne, wrap it up for this gentleman."

After leaving this western antique furniture store, Wu Di walked into a gold and stone antique store next door.

This store is not big, but it has a complete range of items. There are all kinds of seals and small carvings made of Shoushan stone, chicken blood stone, jadeite, Hetian jade and other materials. Among them, only the seal materials of Dushan jade are full of a counter. I feel very kind.

Wu Di walked around the counter for half a circle, and found a place selling ancient jade. After a casual glance, he was attracted by a white jade seal with a dragon button.

This seal is carved from a huge piece of white nephrite jade, with a warm texture and a very finely carved button. The seal surface reaches 13 centimeters square, which is a rare large seal.

Gently flipping the seal over, looking at the four characters "Xintian Master" engraved on the seal, Wu Di was stunned.

"Xintian Master" is one of the titles of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, which means "those who follow the sky will prosper, and those who go against the sky will perish".This name is closely related to the major historical events that put down the Junggar and Hui tribe rebellions in the early Qianlong period and consolidated the northwest frontier. If this jade seal is really the case, then its production process should be examined in the entire history of the Qing Dynasty. The precious value is self-evident.

He remembered it very clearly. There is a record of this jade seal in the "Seals of Qing Dynasty Emperors and Empresses" collected by the Palace Museum, and it is also clearly recorded in "Qianlong Baosou" compiled during the Qianlong period. Moreover, it is collected in Ningcheng Museum. This jade seal is also imprinted in the upper right corner of the scroll of "Eight Steeds and Horses Riding the Yellow" by Ai Qimeng, a court painter of the Qing Dynasty.

While carefully recalling the shape of the "Xintian Master" Yuxi in his memory, Wu Di asked the boss to take the ink pad, and he wanted to try to see how the seal imitated.

Looking at the clear red squares on the white paper, he was slightly distracted, it was unreasonable that this jade seal, which was sold as an imitation, was actually the real one!

"Boss, how much is this big seal?"

The shop owner is a middle-aged Spanish man with gray hair. When Wu Di asked the price, he smiled and replied in blunt Chinese:

"88 euros!"

Wu Di smiled and shook his head, okay, not only learned Chinese, but also our auspicious numbers, in view of this, we need to talk more!

"I won't say whether this seal is true or not, just look at the material and carving work, how about I offer [-] euros?"

"No, no, no, sir. This Qianlong jade seal is clearly recorded in historical materials, and its whereabouts are unknown. Who can say that this one is not real? Look at the material, the carver, Here, there seems to be something called patina that you mentioned, which is absolutely unacceptable at your price.”

Daniel walked into the store quietly, stood behind Wu Di with the military adviser, watched him bargain, and was immediately attracted by the large and small bags placed beside the military adviser, looking at him with a questioning look in his eyes.

The military division smiled and nodded. From Wu Ge's point of view, these things should be true, but I don't know how he is so lucky. Didn't Yan Ju visit these shops two days ago?But then they thought of the Mercedes-Benz that gave them a great harvest, and a stern light flashed in their eyes.It's fine if you don't know about the Qinglong Society, but if you know, you dare to come forward so arrogantly, you are looking for death!

The whole bargaining process between Wu Di and the boss lasted for 5 minutes. One was interested in buying and the other was interested in selling. In the end, the deal was made at a price of 48 euros.

The military adviser did not tell Daniel about the Mercedes-Benz. Judging from the current known situation, Matsushita Shiro's information should be accurate.From Oshima Ai in Las Vegas, to today's Mercedes-Benz, and the two killers who once appeared around the courtyard, or some people in the middle that they didn't notice... These series of actions all show that Qinglong will It seems that they are not in a hurry to act, but are constantly trying to get close to Wu Di through various channels. Could it be that their purpose is not just revenge?What more do they want?

"Fifth Brother, is there a good harvest? Do you think we should hide two pieces? If Old Master Yue and Brother Yan see this, we will burst into tears?"

"While staying here, they are all gangsters in the same circle. This thing will be exposed sooner or later. How do you ask Fifth Brother to explain it at that time?"

The military adviser gave Daniel a supercilious look, and walked towards the street with big bags and small bags.The next time I come out, I must bring a few more people with me. The sparrow will follow Panasonic back to China, and the manpower here will soon be insufficient. By the way, this broken stove is really heavy!

Wu Di and the others sent the general to the rented car parked at the street corner, turned around and walked towards the street just now.With sharp eyes, he suddenly pointed at the nearby shop and shouted:

"Fifth brother, look, old man!"

Wu Di turned his head in response, no, not only the old man was there, but Yan Ju was also there!

Looking up at the name of the store, it turned out to be the Chinese characters Debaotang. He couldn't help smiling, and stepped into the door.

Yue Ge and Yan Ju didn't notice his arrival. At this time, they were pouting their buttocks and bending their waists, circling around a sea blue porcelain with white spots on the round table.

Wu Di leaned over curiously, and after a look, he let out a soft "Huh", Shiwan kiln emerald hair glaze bottle?

Shiwan kiln is one of the famous folk kilns in Ming and Qing Dynasties, and is famous for its good imitation of Jun kiln.Blue, rose purple, emerald hair glaze, etc. are the best imitation Jun glaze colors, but the imitation is invasive.Ji Yuansou once praised the changing glaze color of Shiwan kiln in his "Tao Ya": "Guang kiln is called clay uniform, and its blue looks like gray... It is surrounded by the vortex in the gray glaze. It is especially rich and colorful, and the eyes are cloud spots and clouds, which are not enough for Fangjue's body....Sometimes, dark blue stars are exposed in the gray glaze, which is also enough to play with."

Yue Ge and the two heard "Hey" and looked up only to find that Wu Di had arrived. The old man straightened up, first glanced at Wu Di's empty hands, and said with a smile:

"What's the matter? Xiaowu, you, a special appraiser, have been shopping for a long time, and you still have nothing?"

Wu Di opened his mouth, but finally scratched his head and didn't speak.Can you tell them here that they are empty-handed because they can't hold it, and they have already sent it back?Forget it, in case the old man can't stand the blow, there is still a place to lie down in the hotel...

"Come on, come on, don't just stand there, take a quick look at this one. We can't afford it, but it doesn't mean you can't afford it either. If you're sensible, get it quickly, and then lend me and the old man to look at it for ten or eight years. We won't tell you about your loss in this game, what do you think?" (To be continued.)
