"Stingy! Don't worry, baby, didn't you hear me say it's Amoy? Cheap ones are called Amoy! Let's not buy expensive ones!" Xu Jing smiled, stroking Lin Zhen's bright face with her hands, comforting her.Then he turned around and asked a few men, "Tell me, is it possible to find a hairpin or bracelet used by a noble concubine?"

"Yes!" Da Ya responded quickly, and immediately replied, "This antique, that is all spiritual objects, people pick it, and it also picks people! The so-called good birds choose trees to live in, and a beautiful and lovely girl like you , the hairpin bracelet is too impatient to wait, just waiting for you to hurry up and pick it up!"

I bother!Wu Chen got goosebumps when he heard it, this guy's skin is getting thicker and thicker, is it okay to talk like this?Sure enough, I heard Lin Zhen laughing, teasing Da Ya, did he fall in love with our beauty? !

Aha, that's needless to say, Da Ya had a self-explanatory expression, and he lifted Wu Chen by the way, "Wood, I'm right! You are a master!"

"Yeah. Ah." Wu Chen murmured perfunctorily. If he did such evil, that bastard with big teeth would never be able to encounter any leaks in his life. If a good thing sees him, he would probably rather break himself! "When it comes to shopping for things, it really depends on luck. Everything is possible."

"The probability is equivalent to being hit by a car three times in a row while walking on the road!" Li Xuezhi saw that they were talking excitedly, so he blurted out a sentence, and after he finished speaking, he wanted to slap himself twice!What happened to me today?A sharp drop in IQ caused by two bums?

"You!" Xu Jing was so angry that her little face turned red. Lin Zhen hurriedly hugged her and comforted her, "Okay, stop being angry, baby, he didn't mean it either."

Wu Chen secretly smiled. He knew that people would make some unimaginable mistakes under pressure or in a certain atmosphere. The small objects that reflow, maybe you can meet something you like.

"Now that you are here, I definitely recommend that you buy some small antiques to go back, especially the more exquisite porcelain. In addition to the newly made crafts in Jingdezhen, there are still a lot of export porcelain returned from overseas or seafood from the sea. Bring them back. It’s not bad on the table, and it’s still worth collecting.”

"Who are you fooling?" Li Xuezhi seemed to be going all out, ignoring Wu Chen's kindness at all, and half-sarcastically said: "Sea goods are worthless, and as for export porcelain, it is even less worth it, and there is little room for appreciation. How about buying some handicrafts!"

"Uh..." Wu Chenyu concluded, what Li Xuezhi said was not entirely wrong, he thought for a while, and then said: "Comparatively speaking, export porcelain is indeed cheaper now, but because of this, it may be a piece of the collection field. Where's the depression?"

"You mean a depression, is it a depression?" Li Xuezhi said disdainfully, this kind of flat-headed boy knows how to invest!Still a depression!

"Wait, what is export porcelain!" Xu Jing interrupted him bluntly, and asked Wu Chen sweetly.

"Porcelain for export is porcelain that is sold to foreign countries, that is, foreign trade!" Da Ya replied in a timely manner. Now the Chaozhou area, known as the porcelain capital of Asia, is doing export of porcelain, mainly to Europe, Russia, Southeast Asia and Africa.

The export of porcelain has become a local pillar industry. As a local, he still knows a little about these.

"Cut! I have a friend who makes custom-made porcelain abroad. Do you know how cheap those porcelains are? To put it bluntly, it's not much better than cabbage!" Li Xuezhi said contemptuously, then turned to Xu Jing and said, "If you want, Turn around, I'll give you a few sets!"

"Yeah." Wu Chen didn't refute him, and Li Xuezhi was right.One of the main functions of Wu Chen's previous unit was industrial policy. Naturally, he knew that the current ceramics industry, especially household porcelain, was fiercely competitive, foreign orders were difficult to obtain, and prices were kept under constant pressure. The net profit rate of the entire industry has been maintained at 2 % or so, many manufacturers even lose money on every order, mainly relying on export tax rebates and other technical transformation funds to support them, and barely survive.

However, export porcelain and these are still two concepts, and it is necessary to distinguish them. Wu Chen thought about it and said: "The export porcelain mentioned in the antique shop generally refers to the porcelain used for foreign trade or exchange before the Republic of China. There are two kinds of handed down and sunken ship."

"In general, these exported porcelains are more exquisite than the contemporary folk kiln porcelains. Some of them were custom-made porcelains and logo porcelains specially made according to the needs of customers at that time. It is a wonderful flower, and its technical level has reached a certain level, which is not inferior to ordinary official kilns."

"Actually, it depends on the craftsmanship. The reason why official kilns are so popular is because the quality of official kiln products is better than that of private kilns!" Although Da Ya didn't understand these things, Wu Chen had no choice but to drag him to watch a few episodes You can still brag about the TV shows with adults.

"Yeah." Wu Chen nodded, it's rare that this guy can still remember, "This export porcelain can be roughly divided into three categories in terms of varieties: one is commercial porcelain, which is used for trading and produced according to the market demand at that time; One is gift porcelain, which is used as a gift when VIPs come and go; the other is fixed-fired porcelain, which is made by drawing or sample from abroad and customized according to requirements. Many noble families in Europe have their own family emblems and are fired in China. A batch of porcelain with the family crest is used by the family, and this kind of porcelain is sought after by the descendants of the family, and the price is very high."

This long paragraph is all memorized, and he has seen very little foreign export porcelain, and has never seen many of them, such as those custom-fired porcelains. He only remembers the name, and he doesn't even know what it looks like.

However, this does not prevent him from strengthening his understanding of this variety through learning, "From a historical perspective, export porcelain has provided strong evidence for the trade exchanges between the Chinese nation and the world, and it is worthy of further study by scholars such as archaeology, history, and social economy. Study it and discover its value."

"Speaking of the sky, it's not a low-end product!" Li Xuezhi and Wu Chenmao are in love, and they can't afford good porcelain, so you just say it, why bother to boast about it with cheap goods.

"It's relatively cheap, not low-end! As I said just now, some of them are not inferior to official kilns!" Wu Chen actually didn't know that the auction prices of some heraldic porcelains had already far exceeded those of ordinary official kilns.Otherwise, if some examples are cited, the facts are presented, and reasoning is added, the argument will be much more sufficient.

"Aha! Everyone knows that the domestic sales of export porcelain are not good, and the price is also low. The market price of domestic and foreign porcelain is less than half of the price of the same domestic sales." Li Xuezhi is not an insider, but it seems that he has seen this. class reported.

Is this going to be carried to death?Wu Chen was also angry for no reason. My brother has a good temper, but it's not just made of mud!At the moment, he retorted unceremoniously, "I think this is only a temporary phenomenon. With the deepening of research on export porcelain, experts, collectors, antique dealers and the media will pay more attention to export porcelain. In addition, the number of collectors in China is large and is increasing year by year. Although there are a lot of export porcelains in the world, the number is limited after all, which is far from enough for the collection team that is increasing year by year. Therefore, there is still a large demand for export porcelain in the future. There is room for appreciation, and the day will come when the value of exported porcelain will be fully reflected.”

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Wu Chen's voice was a little dry after finishing his long speech. Seeing that Lin Zhen and the others were all looking at him, he was a little puzzled. Could it be that he said something wrong?

"Wow, I don't see that you really have research." Xu Jing opened her mouth exaggeratedly, and praised without being stingy.

"He just doesn't do his job properly!" Lin Zhen said with a smile, his expression was not so much a criticism as a complacency, which made Li Xuezhi's heart tense up and down!

"We are preparing to open an antique shop now. This is a real business!" Da Ya said triumphantly. Wu Chen's face was bright, and he was also proud!

"Open an antique shop?!" Lin Zhen also looked at Wu Chen in shock. Isn't this a bit too big?And even though she didn't understand it, she had heard that the water inside was deep!

"Hehe, just kidding around. In the early days, it was mainly contemporary handicrafts." Wu Chen nodded, and said honestly that there were not so many antiques for them to toss about when they just opened.

"That would require a lot of money, right? I heard that the prices of some master's works are not cheap!" Lin Zhen stared at Wu Chen with some complaints, this pig head, I can't wait to bite him!For such a big matter, he didn't even say a word to himself.

"Hehe, it's not too much. Let's get together with a few people. Let's start small. As for the works of contemporary masters, this contains a lot of political economy, so we won't discuss this." Wu Chen finished speaking with a smile, and changed the subject , By the way, a flattery, who said that if you want to chase a girl, you must first please the girlfriends around her. , you might be able to find something you like.”

Sure enough, Xu Jing hummed twice, her reddish lips curled up in a beautiful arc, fully expressing the unique charm of women.

Wu Chen's eyes flickered, and his eyes froze for a moment, before he quickly glanced away. Seeing Lin Zhen's unfriendly eyes, he shuddered!

Da Ya paid the bill as usual, and everyone went outside together.

At this time, the sun was already in the west, and it shone obliquely on the antique buildings on both sides, emitting this golden light, but it did not shine on Xiguan Street.

At this time, walking on both sides of the wide avenue is not too hot, and the flow of people wandering around gradually increases. People come and go, and you can see couples walking side by side arm in arm, children playing and playing, and people everywhere. The nearby residents who went to the market to buy vegetables and returned home, under the afterglow of the setting sun, were full of leisurely and cheerful atmosphere.

Wu Chen seemed to be infected by this atmosphere, he felt relaxed, and the unhappiness caused just now disappeared. He was not a person who cares about it. At this moment, he only sighed that life is so beautiful, so he would not care about those trivial things.

Xu Jing and the others also had smiles on their faces. When they saw a streetside stall for buying snacks, they walked over to buy something to eat.

After wandering all the way, Wu Chen gave a wry smile. It has nothing to do with the half a dime of the porcelain. If it goes on like this, dinner can be saved. However, he saw that the two girls were not afraid of obesity and ate bravely all the way, so it was very relaxing and comfortable.
