Goldfinger is a bit strange
Chapter 254: No blue and white porcelain in the Yuan Dynasty? (1/2)
Liu Qingshan was annoyed by guys who wanted to steal love, and he could bear it when he saw that he was about to make a big mistake, but ended up being messed up by the wool roll.
So he moved his arms, clenched his fists, and stepped forward.
Master Lu and Lao Maoer were so frightened that they stretched out their hands and grabbed him: If you hit foreigners here, you would be hanging yourself.
"I just went over to shake his hand and say hello."
Liu Qingshan was also a bit dumbfounded. He was not mentally ill, so how could he take action?
The best way to deal with foreigners is to fool them directly.
When the two old brothers heard this, they let go. Liu Qingshan waved and greeted the foreigner with "Hello" and started chatting with the foreigner.
The other person was in his early thirties, over 1.85 meters tall, and had a strong build. He seemed to attach great importance to exercise and sports.
Liu Qingshan also said in proficient English: "Sir, I think it is necessary to popularize the historical knowledge of China for you, and then you can make a decision."
Wool Roll looked at him blankly, not knowing what this guy wanted to do.
Liu Qingshan flexed his fingers and told the foreigner about the Qin, Han, Jin, Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, as well as the approximate time of the Republic of China. The foreigner was soon confused:
"My God, China is indeed a country with a long history. Unlike the United States, our history is still very short."
The foreigner shrugged his shoulders and added: "Although we have a short history, we are very powerful now." After saying that, he also bent his arms and showed off his muscles.
Of course, being the only ancient civilization that has not lost its inheritance is no joke.
Although it is still in its infancy, it will rise again in a few decades and compete with your country.
Thinking of this, Liu Qingshan became confident again: "Oh, friend, you are very smart, you should be able to understand. What I mean is that this big bowl is from the Republic of China. It was only a few decades ago. , so it’s not considered an antique.”
"You can buy antiques from earlier eras, which are treasures that bear witness to history."
Hearing what he said, the waiters behind the counter all rolled their eyes at Liu Qingshan, probably thinking that this guy was a traitor who admired foreign things.
In front of foreign guests, I act like a slave, bah!
The woolly foreigner nodded vigorously: "Thank you, friend, you can call me McCall. I work at the embassy. Thank you for your advice."
"You can call me Liu."
Seeing that the trick was successful, Liu Qingshan stretched out his hand again and shook McCall's hand again.
Mr. McCall went to look at other antique porcelain with great interest.
Liu Qingshan gave him another piece of advice: "Actually, if you want to buy porcelain to take home, just buy modern porcelain. The craftsmanship is very good and you can use it with confidence. Even if it is accidentally broken, you won't feel bad."
After saying that, he winked at McCall and said, "And it's not bad to give it as a gift. Just say it's a valuable antique. Your friends in China won't be able to tell the difference anyway."
Oh, can you still do this?
McCall suddenly felt a little enlightened: Yes, in their eyes anyway, they can't tell the difference between the porcelain of that era, so why not buy those cheap modern products?
The more he thought about it, the more it made sense. McCall gave Liu Qingshan a hug directly: "Oh, Liu, thank you so much. Come to my place when you have time, and I'll treat you to coffee."
Although I couldn't understand what they were saying, Master Lu and Lao Maoer were both stunned: "Awesome!"
Soon McCall went to look at the modern porcelain and said goodbye to Liu Qingshan for the time being. After he left, Liu Qingshan nodded to the waiter:
"Please pack that big bowl for me, I want it."
Ah this?
The waiter's eyes widened: "You, you..."
Liu Qingshan smiled: "How can such a good thing fall into the hands of foreigners?"
"Okay, sir, three thousand yuan. It's a pity that we can't give discounts here, otherwise we will definitely give you a cheaper price." The waiter was angry at Liu Qingshan just now, but now he looks more and more pleasing to his eyes.
Liu Qingshan also thanked him: "I didn't exchange the foreign exchange coupons. Can I just use US dollars?"
"Okay, okay."
The waiter quickly packaged the large porcelain bowl, and after Liu Qingshan paid, he placed the packaged porcelain bowl on the counter.
Liu Qingshan was about to stretch out his hand, but there was another big furry hand covering his palm. When he looked up, he saw that it was the wool roll just now, and it came back again, glaring at him angrily:
"You were also interested in this big bowl just now, right? You deceived my feelings!"
"McCall, I think you misunderstood something."
There was still a faint smile on Liu Qingshan's face, and he said unhurriedly: "What suits you is the best, and I already have porcelain from other dynasties, and I just want to buy another one from the Republic of China period, and it will be perfect. , and you don’t need it.”
The big furry hand withdrew immediately. Obviously, his master had been successfully deceived once again.
"Liu, I was impulsive. I apologize to you. Can you help me choose some porcelain? Each of them is so exquisite. I don't know how to choose."
McCall was soon smiling again.
Okay, since you are so honest, I will help you.
Liu Qingshan signaled Master Lu and the others to continue selecting antiques, serving as a consultant to foreigners, and selecting modern porcelain. His skills were sufficient.
Next, Liu Qingshan showed his profound knowledge: "Four gentlemen of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, you have to have a complete set."
The Twelve Hairpins of Jinling, these are the beauties in our famous novels, all of them are of Hepburn’s level, so they must have a set.
And this one, one hundred and eight generals in Shuibo Liangshan...
This made the workers in charge of packaging porcelain at the Friendship Store extremely busy. The manager even looked at Liu Qingshan with envy: Talent, if the employees in his store were so good, he wouldn't have to worry about sales at all.
After Liu Qingshan finished helping, he found that the two middle-aged uncles over there were not lagging behind at all. All the fifty thousand US dollars he brought had been spent.
Looking at the two people's unfinished expressions, they definitely want to continue shopping, but unfortunately they really have no money in their pockets.
However, it was quite fruitful. I bought more than ten pieces of porcelain in total, all of which were of high quality. Liu Qingshan also beamed with joy: This should be considered a good start, and it is still a big hit.
The workers at the Friendship Store were busy carrying out the packaged porcelain. Liu Qingshan and the others were doing well here, but McCall's place was piled up into a hill.
The goods came in a car and couldn't fit in the trunk. Finally, the manager communicated with him and asked for his detailed address, and he would be responsible for delivering the goods to his door in a while.
When he went out, McCall greeted Liu Qingshan: "Liu, you are welcome to be my guest."
"Definitely. I wonder if you can watch the Olympics broadcast there?"
Liu Qingshan also had an idea and asked with a smile.
McCall also shrugged his shoulders and complained: "It's a pity that I can only see your country's broadcast, oh, my flying man Carl Lewis, and my diving prince Louganis!"
While the guy was holding his head, he was interrupted by a greeting from the side: "Sir, you like porcelain very much. If I am wasting your precious time, can you take a look at this piece of porcelain of mine?"
He was speaking broken English, and even Liu Qingshan followed his instructions. He was a man wearing a white shirt and glasses. He was less than thirty years old, and he was holding a large cardboard box in his arms.
McCall was also used to it. Since arriving in this country, he had met many people selling things to him, so he quickly turned his attention from Lewis and Louganis to each other's cardboard boxes. 7K妏揩
The man immediately beamed with joy, put the box on the ground, opened it carefully, and took out a huge jar from inside.
It's so big that it can probably be used as a jar for pickling salted duck eggs.
"Sir, this is an old item passed down from my family. For 20,000 US dollars, it belongs to you."
The man seemed a little reluctant to give up, but soon made up his mind.
"Hey, this price is too high. I just bought more than a hundred pieces of porcelain, and it only cost a few thousand dollars."
McCall shook his head vigorously, probably thinking this:
Although your jar is relatively large, I have a lot of it.
Disappointment flashed in the man's eyes, and he was about to put the jar back into the box.
"Can we take a look?"
Liu Qingshan also asked in English.
"You are an overseas Chinese, you can, of course you can!" The man's eyes showed hope again.
Old Mao'er and Master Lu got together and began to study, while Liu Qingshan chatted with the man word by word:
"Since it is passed down from the family, where can I sell it if there is nothing else?"
The man adjusted his glasses with his hand: "I want to go abroad, I want to leave this place forever!"
Liu Qingshan originally had a good impression of this man, but now he was completely disappointed: no matter what you have experienced, he would not bother to be associated with a person who has abandoned his motherland.
Even the old man straightened up, looked at the guy with disdain, and muttered: "Forget about our ancestors' shit!"
Master Lu nodded towards Liu Qingshan: "It should be a blue and white jar from the Ming Dynasty. It's not worth 20,000 US dollars."
"I am the blue and white of the Yuan Dynasty!" The man was still arguing.
"Haha, who doesn't know that there were no blue and white flowers in the Yuan Dynasty? Who are you trying to coax?" Master Lu didn't have a good face either.
"This has been passed down from generation to generation by my ancestors. How could it be wrong?"
The man continued to argue.
Liu Qingshan's heart suddenly moved, and he suddenly remembered a public case in the collecting world: There was no blue and white flowers in the Yuan Dynasty, which has always been a domestic misconception.
It was foreign researchers who were the first to discover that, due to a lack of international exchanges, people in China still had the original misconceptions.
It wasn't until the large Yuan blue and white vase from Guigu Mountain was auctioned for a sky-high price that it became known to the Chinese people.
Is this big jar really a Yuan blue and white jar?
He didn't take a closer look just now, because he was a complete layman when it came to appraising antiques, and it would be useless to look at them. But now, of course, he must take a closer look.
First, I picked up the big jar and looked underneath. There was no mark on it, and neither did most of the Yuan blue and white flowers.
Since Master Lu can date it to the Ming Dynasty, it may be a blue and white jar from the Yuan Dynasty.

The earth was hazy, and there was a ruined city, silent and lifeless in the dim blood rain.
The city was full of broken walls and ruins, everything was withered, collapsed houses could be seen everywhere, as well as blue-black corpses and pieces of meat, like broken autumn leaves, withering silently.
The streets that were once bustling are now bleak.
The sandy road that was once crowded with people is no longer noisy.
Only blood mud mixed with pieces of meat, dust, and paper remained, and it was indistinguishable from each other, which was shocking.
Not far away, a broken carriage was deeply stuck in the mud, full of sadness, with only an abandoned rabbit doll hanging on the shaft, swaying in the wind.
The white fluff had long been soaked into wet red, full of gloom and weirdness.
The turbid eyes seemed to have some resentment left, looking alone at the mottled stones in front.
There, a figure was lying.
This is a 13 or 14-year-old boy, with tattered clothes and full of dirt, and a broken leather bag tied around his waist.
The boy squinted his eyes and did not move. The biting cold penetrated his tattered coat from all directions, attacked his whole body, and gradually took away his body temperature.

Following his gaze, a skinny vulture was gnawing on the rotten corpse of a wild dog, and sometimes vigilantly observing the surroundings.
