Play treasure master

Chapter 643

Without waiting for Pu Jie to answer, Yu Yao asked again: "Who introduced it?"

"It's the boss of Hot Pot City, the one who bought several things from me."

"The one who runs a restaurant, sets up a table of eight immortals, and welcomes the sixteenth party, may not know the details of the guests." Yu Yao pondered.

"Then what do you say?"

"You said it was a piece of porcelain? Blue and white?"

"That's right." Pu Jie paused, "It's still Yongzheng blue and white. To be honest, I think it's very likely that it's not true. Otherwise, why would you have to see it?"

Among the antiques, the most difficult thing to identify is naturally not the wide open door and one-eye fake, the most difficult thing to identify must be the top imitation.

"Okay, come on, just be careful."

"You are too careful, someone will hurt you?"

"You must not have the heart to harm others, and you must not have the heart to guard against others."

"Well, then I won't drive to pick him up. There's something wrong on the road, I can't explain it. I'll go first and let him come by himself!"

Pu Jie arrived at the store half an hour later, and the owner of the goods came after another hour.

After exchanging pleasantries, Yu Yao closed the store.

The owner handed over his business card when they met. He was the sales director of an unknown trading company.This kind of title depends on the size of the company. If there are only two people in the sales department, then there will be one director and one deputy director.

This person looked to be in his 40s. He was thin, with high cheekbones and a sallow complexion. To put it bluntly, he looked a bit like a consumptive ghost.

The name on the business card is Laiqi.

This surname is rare, and Lai Junchen, a cruel official in the Wu Zhou period, is considered a celebrity.Born as a scoundrel, he was able to occupy a high position in the end. "Please enter the urn" is because of him.But this guy was miserable in the end. He was beheaded and displayed as a public corpse. As a result, the people chopped his flesh into pieces, leaving only a pair of bones.

Lai Qi put a large square suitcase in his hand on the ground and opened it, and took out a high-grade mahogany box from it, and put the box on the Eight Immortals table.

After putting it away, he didn't open it, but took out a box of Ninety-Five Lords to distribute cigarettes to Yu Yao and Pu Jie.

Pu Jie chuckled, and took the point bluntly, "Come on, you are the master of the scene!"

Yu Yao also smiled, "I'm not used to this." After saying that, he took out his cigarette and lit it.

Lai Qi nodded, and lit a cigarette by himself, "Is this store jointly opened by Boss Yu and Boss Pu?"

Just as Pu Jie was about to speak, Yu Yao responded, "Yes, sometimes relatives also come to help look after the store." Pu Jie nodded after hearing this.

"I'm not from the antique shop either. If there's something wrong with my words, the two of you will bear with me." Lai Qi said again.

Yu Yao took advantage of the situation and said, "I'm not a person in the antique shop, and I can find good things, that's my skill. I don't know, where did I get this thing?"

"Debt payment." Lai Qi said with a smile, "There is a boss in another city who owes us money, and he will come back if he lives or dies. You say go to court, it's too troublesome; and I have a cousin who knows porcelain, so I asked him to go and have a look , I think it will work."

"How much is it worth?" Pu Jie seemed to blurt out, but there was a hint of cunning in his eyes.

"This, it's not easy to disclose." Lai Qi laughed, "The main thing is that I don't understand the rules of your antique business, so I won't talk nonsense."

"Okay, let's take a look at the things first." Yu Yao stretched out his hand and patted the mahogany box.

"Please keep your eyes open!"

The suitcase is not small, the wooden box is not small, and the porcelain that Lai Qi takes out of it is not small.

This porcelain is a blue and white pipa statue with a height of more than forty centimeters.

Pipa Zun, also known as Pipa Bottle.The mouth is generally a wash mouth, which is relatively large and more like a statue; but the neck is usually a narrow neck, which is relatively thin and also looks like a bottle.The abdomen is naturally round, and the ring feet are more characteristic, often in the style of a platform.

If this shape is cut in two, the longitudinal section looks a bit like a pipa, hence the name.

Some pipa statues have two ears, but this one does not.

Pu Jie sat down next to Yu Yao, Yu Yao rushed to Qi and nodded, then started to do it.

Yu Yao first turned over the bottom, and the bottom was inscribed in blue and white double-circle regular script: made in the reign of Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty.

The picture on the pipa statue is "Fenghou Hangyin".

On the picture, there is an old pine tree with flowers, plants and blue stones.On a twig of the old pine, there is a seal stone hanging. On both sides of the seal stone, there is a bee flying on each side; on the pine branch above, there is a monkey hanging upside down, looking at the seal stone.

Take bees, spirit monkeys, and seal stones hanging on pine branches, and combine them into "Fenghou Hanging Seal".

Many of Huaxia's decorations use similar homophonic compositions.

The vessel shape, body glaze and painting technique of this pipa statue are all in the style of Yongzheng official kiln.

Lai Qi took a sip of tea at the side, and seeing Yu Yao's careful reading, he opened his mouth and said, "I heard that Ming sees Chenghua, Qing sees Yongzheng. I don't really understand it, but this bottle is really beautiful!"

Emperor Yongzheng's artistic attainments were indeed very high, and his son Qianlong was really hard to come by.At the same time, Yongzheng was particularly focused on porcelain, and he sometimes put forward many specific requirements for official kiln porcelain.This is also an important reason for the high quality of Yongzheng official kiln porcelain.

Nowadays, imitation porcelains are everywhere in the streets, and there are many Yongzheng porcelains, which are naturally fake at first glance.But in terms of top-level imitation, it is very difficult to imitate Yongzheng porcelain.

Yu Yao watched it for a full 5 minutes, and then said to Pu Jie, "How about you?"

Pu Jie nodded and got started.

Yu Yao looked at Qi, "Come on, what price can you offer?"

Lai Qi smiled and said, "Didn't you tell Boss Pu?"

"Have you already said that?" Yu Yao looked at Pu Jie, who frowned, "Hey? My brain, why don't I remember?"

Lai Qi waved his hands, "Boss Pu is a nobleman who forgets things a lot. It doesn't matter, we have to talk face to face. I can't do without this number."

As Lai Qi spoke, he raised five fingers.

"I remembered, Mr. Lai did say that it is this number." Pu Jie put down the pipa statue in his hand.

Yu Yao didn't play sloppy with him any more, "What do you mean, you can't talk if you lose 500 million?"

"Correct!"

Yu Yao didn't answer, but carefully picked up the pipa statue, put it into the mahogany box, and then firmly closed the lid.

"Boss Yu is this?"

"Come on, look at this small shop of mine, I operate with a small capital, and I hope to come and go quickly to make money. If I received this pipa statue for 500 million, with such a large investment, I may not be able to sell it in a year or so. "

Lai Qi was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "Boss Yu really wants it?"

At this moment, Pu Jie interjected, "Come on, with the price you mentioned, we really have no profit."

Lai Qi reached out and touched the mahogany box, "I heard that Yongzheng official kilns have been photographed for tens of millions."

"It depends on the specific item. To be honest, the blue and white pipa statue is not a popular product in the Yongzheng kiln. A few years ago, a large statue with a height of 200 to [-] centimeters was auctioned, and the price was only [-] million." Pu Jie Ma Liu said.

Hearing this, Yu Yao couldn't help but glance at Pu Jie, he did his homework, but he still missed the point.
