Chapter 61 Imperial snuff bottle

"How can I comfort you?" Yu Yao patted Pu Jie on the shoulder, "Looking back, I care about the cost of this coin mainly to find out its ins and outs. Now, I don't know as much as Brother Zhong .”

In fact, Yu Yao really thought about it.

Everything has pros and cons.If it wasn't for Pu Jie's talkativeness, then maybe he would spend money with these two funny faces and investigate this matter all the time.But will it be found?When can I find out?It's all unknown.And it's not that he hasn't checked the information before, so the chances are slim.

Now, although things that look like the Zhong family may be bought back, there is a clear clue of reality.Moreover, if Zhong Yu's uncle is found, it is very likely that he will really find out.

He obtained the eyesight of a grandmaster from the "ghost eye piercing the heart", and there are no "side effects" until now. In fact, he already feels very lucky.

The reason why he still wants to find out more is that he still has doubts about the "ghost bumping" in his heart, and he always wants to examine the cause and effect.

Secondly, after seeing 'Ghost Eyes Piercing Fire', I suddenly became a little more greedy and extravagant. If there are really a lot of money, five or six, will there be any more magical effects after gathering them together?
Pu Jie also nodded.He also heard it just now, Yu Yao knew a little bit, but not much.This grimace seems to be a set of money, and if it is thrown into the antique market, it may not be able to sell for much money.

The real value of this set of ghost faces spending money lies in the secret behind it.As for whether this secret is material or spiritual, it is still unknown.

And looking at the meaning, Zhong Yu knew something, but it was probably just a rough outline, his uncle was the core figure.

After Zhong Yu finished making the phone call, his state had returned to normal. This person's mental adjustment ability is not weak.

"I hope the two younger brothers will help keep this matter a secret." Zhong Yu cupped his hands, saw the two nod their heads in agreement, and then said, "I will arrange the investigation for the rest of the matter. Don't worry, brother Yu. What's the matter?" I will keep you informed of the news.”

Zhong Yu didn't ask why Yu Yao also valued this "Ghost Eye Piercing Fire". It was obvious that both sides had something to hide.Only by finding Zhong Yu's uncle would it be possible to communicate in depth—although it was only possible.

Afterwards, the three sat down again and drank a glass of wine together.Immediately afterwards, Zhong Yu took the initiative to say, "It was agreed before, and we can't stop! I have already thought about Lu Baoshan's matter, and I have a plan for you first."

After finishing speaking, he took out a brocade box from the bag he carried with him, placed it on the table and opened it.

In the brocade box, there is a vertical grid in the middle, and on both sides, there is a porcelain pastel snuff bottle, "Take a look."

The two snuff bottles, at first glance, look exactly alike.

They are all porcelain pastel pots with red coral tops, and the pictures are pictures of old people.Old man, originally meant to be eight or ninety years old, is used to imply longevity.On the picture, there are cats and butterflies, which are homophonic for old age.A lazy fat cat, two graceful butterflies, surrounded by flowers and stone pergola, it's fun.

Yu Yao and Pu Jie each picked up one from the box.

The bottom inscriptions are also exactly the same, and the inscriptions in seal script are "Made in the Daoguang Year of the Qing Dynasty".

Yu Yao took a closer look, and found that the one in his hand was definitely the genuine one, an authentic Daoguang imperial snuff bottle.He couldn't help looking at Pu Jie again.

Pu Jie frowned and sucked his lips, and after a while he managed to say, "This seems to be the real thing!"

Zhong Yu smiled, "You might as well take another look."

Yu Yao looked at the one that Pu Jie had seen for a while, then shook his head lightly, "This one is an imitation, but the tricks are really good! Such a small snuff bottle, even if it is made by comparison, it is not easy to compare. It's hard to get to that level!"

"Good eyesight is good eyesight! One of these two snuff bottles is real and the other is fake. It's hard to tell the real from the fake." Zhong Yu sighed, "The imitation one was made by my uncle!"

"What?" Yu Yao was taken aback. He didn't know the identity of Zhong Yu's uncle at first, but he didn't expect to have such a trick!It is probably not difficult for such a high imitation to hide from the big auction house.

"These two daoguang imperial snuff bottles were given to me three years ago, on the eve of my uncle's disappearance. He also wanted to test my eyesight at that time, explaining that one is true and the other is false; he also said that after confirming the true and false , the fake one, just smash it into pieces. Moreover, if I can discern it within a week, my eyesight will pass.”

Yu Yao thought to himself, no wonder Zhong Yu's eyesight on porcelain is so good, it turns out that there has always been such an expert preaching, teaching and dispelling doubts!

"I did figure it out within a week, but my uncle disappeared inexplicably." Zhong Yu continued, "I brought this thing here, but I didn't expect it to be a causal loop! Because my uncle disappeared at that time, this high imitation also It didn’t fall; as a result, it can be used to help you once now! And you just provided my uncle’s clues!”

Pu Jie put down the snuff bottle in embarrassment.His eyesight is far from being able to distinguish between true and false.

"Brother Zhong, your plan is to go directly to Lu Ji Porcelain Shop, let Lu Baoshan see the real one, but sell him the fake one?" Yu Yao asked.

"That's right. Pu Jie has met him before, so it's not good to show up again; but you are a new face, so you can participate."

As soon as Yu Yao heard "participate", he understood, "You mean, you will arrange for a consignor to go to Luji Porcelain Store to ship the goods, and I just happened to go to Luji Porcelain Store to help the consignor get rid of the sloppy Eye?"

"Brother, it's clear, that's right. The price of this snuff bottle is now more than [-]. The owner can let Lu Baoshan see the real product first, and directly ask for [-], and bite the bullet."

Yu Yao nodded, "I understand. With Lu Baoshan's character, no matter how low the price is, he won't agree to it outright. At this time, I, a customer, felt that the price was too lucrative, so I stepped forward and expressed my willingness to buy it. The owner of the goods you arranged must be a person with skill in his hands. During the process of pestering me, he exchanged the fake for the real."

Zhong Yu tapped the table with his fingers, "Lu Baoshan is cunning and greedy, as long as you say you can pay [-] on the spot, how can he let you buy it? It doesn't matter if it's a run on you or you go away, you just need to say : I'll wait outside the store, you can't help me? Go out of the store. Then in the store, the owner can basically make a deal with Lu Baoshan."

Pu Jie thought to himself, if Lu Baoshan took away 1 yuan for a high imitation that should have been broken, even if the 100 yuan he took the medicine came back with interest, it would still be [-]% usury!

The tricks in the antique business depend not only on ingenuity, but also on things.If the other party's vision is right, it's useless for you to design extravagantly.One snuff bottle is real and the other is fake, the fake ones are shown first and then the fake ones are sold, and the fake ones can almost be confused with the real ones. It is expected that even Lu Baoshan will inevitably be fooled.

However, to be obedient, you have to listen. Yu Yao recalled what Zhong Yu said at the beginning, "I have a plan for you first", and couldn't help but look at Zhong Yu, "Brother Zhong, listen to what you mean, this is not the only plan you have in mind." ?”
