I Am a Nobleman in England
Chapter 45: ‘I said it’s true, it’s true! ’
In addition to the financial reasons, there is also the lack of eyesight and fear of buying fakes. Don't think that the price is clearly marked. The boss sincerely introduces the age and story of the antique and thinks it is true.
When visiting the antique market, anyone who doesn't want to buy real products is actually at greater risk of counterfeiting. You must know that if there is interest, there will be rivers and lakes. It is precisely because too many people think that what they buy overseas is genuine, that foreigners are more honest than the Chinese, and that foreigners will not deceive, precisely because too many people are With this understanding, there is also a huge profit margin for fakes.
In Arthur’s previous life, he heard some old people in the circle talk about it. At the end of the last century and the beginning of this century, a certain town found that foreigners were cheating. The antique porcelain produced in a certain town was especially good for selling overseas and was dozens of times more expensive than in China. , "Smart" people from a certain town went abroad one after another to sell local antique porcelain in batches. For a while, because there were too many people applying for going abroad, there were long queues in places where visas went abroad. . .
Therefore, Arthur is extremely careful in buying porcelain. After all, leaks are not so easy to pick up. No one who opens the door to do business is a fool. There are people who have good antiques in their hands. Who doesn't want to go to the auction house to get their own. baby?
If you buy fakes, even if you only spend a few hundred yuan, you will be fooled. If you spend a lot of money and buy fakes, you will be fooled!
Don’t be fooled by the news about the auction of high-priced antiques sold overseas in the news of XX. In the face of interests, the whole world is the same. In fact, many deceitful stories about overseas interest groups are well-made. What is the old collection of Earl XX. Yeah, there are only two pieces in the world, etc. They are actually lies carefully fabricated by sellers to sell at sky-high prices. If you believe it, you have been fooled. If you buy at sky-high prices, you are in the middle of the game.
啧啧, thinking about it this way, how can I forget the aura bonus of my earl title and family reputation?
Standing in front of a pair of gilt powder celadon vases, Arthur looked at the pair of exquisite vases with scorching eyes, and the shop owner’s introduction came in his ear: "... This is during the period of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. Look at these bottles. The inlays of the mouth and handles are made by 18th century craftsmanship, copper, completely handmade, engraved, and gilded. These characteristics all prove that this was made by European aristocrats back then. I am from a nobleman. I received it there..."
Arthur looked back at the shop owner with a smile, nodded and said, "Very beautiful. Can I take it out for a look?"
"Of course, you wait a moment--"
When the boss opened the glass cabinet happily and took things, Emilia looked at Arthur curiously, raised her eyebrows, as if she wanted to ask something, but was interrupted by Arthur smiling and shaking his head.
"Look at—"
The boss put two vases on the counter, handed Arthur a magnifying glass, and gestured with a smile.
"Can I pick it up and have a look?" Arthur asked with a smile.
"please--"
Arthur grasped the mouth of the bottle with one hand and the body with the other. He turned the bottle over and glanced at the bottom of the blue square seal script. The ‘Dai Qing Qianlong Nianzhi’ is correct.
To be honest, he has really seen this style of vase in his previous life. In a private museum, this is a typical custom-made porcelain for export. The 18th century was the period when Chinese and Western cultures collided. Europeans and Americans were very familiar with porcelain from the Celestial Dynasty. Obsession and love led to the flow of a large number of artworks to Europe. These exquisite artworks not only brought them the feeling of beauty, but in the eyes of Europeans at the time, they could also bring them knowledge and even luck.
The smile on Arthur’s face became brighter and brighter. Although he could not finally determine the authenticity of this pair of vases, it was exquisite enough and the preserved ones were basically intact. He smiled and carefully put down the vase in his hand, then picked up the other one and took a closer look. Look, and after putting it down, smiled and said to the boss: "Can you get a discount?
"This..." The shop owner frowned slightly, and after taking a look at Arthur and Emilia, his eyes finally fell on the straight figure standing. After entering the door, he didn't say a word, just followed them silently. Paul, the housekeeper with a faint smile on his face, pondered, and finally said, "9.5% off."
"4750 pounds, OK, happy cooperation!" Arthur smiled without muddle and stretched out his hand to shake hands with the other party.
After is to pay, pack the box, and sign the transaction contract.
The original price was five thousand pounds, and two vases were finally sold for 4750 pounds. As soon as Emilia, who had been holding back the problem, left the shop, she began to hold Arthur’s hand and asked: "My dear, are you a little impulsive? Now, in case this is..."
"Hehe, don't worry, dear, believe me, I say they are real, even if they are fake, they are real, not to mention that they are not fake..." Arthur stretched out his hand and looked worried Emily. Ya, smiled and soothed. When he saw the similar pair of vases in his previous life, the museum's instructor had said that this kind of bottle was also available in the Metropolitan Museum of America, but that was a vase with two ears and two handles.

Five thousand pounds, it’s really not expensive, and, no matter whether the pair of vases are genuine or counterfeit, when he brought them back to Bolin Manor and placed them on the cabinet, the fake ones were also real!
The countless noble family for hundreds of years has an orderly heritage and a deep heritage. He can say whatever he likes, right?
Looking at Emilia who was still worried, Arthur couldn't help but smile: "Well, don't think about it so much. Whether it's true or not, I like this pair of vases very much. Like it more than anything, isn't it? "
Hearing Arthur's words, Emilia no longer tangled up, shook her head and chuckled helplessly, and said softly, "Your reason is really powerful!"
"Hehe, okay, let's go to the flea market over there. To be honest, the flea market will really have the fun of Taobao." Arthur smiled very happily, and tightened Emily in his arms. Ya said.
"Ok."
The largest flea market in Southampton, originally a fruit and vegetable market. In the early 1950s, more and more businessmen took a fancy to this treasured geomancy place. Every Saturday they came here to trade. There were as many as 1,000 trading booths. European silverware, ancient Chinese porcelain, and antique cameras were here. , Jewelry and other all-encompassing, is a veritable treasure hunter's paradise.
In fact, whether it is the United Kingdom, the United States, or the celestial dynasty, just like any antique market, when you get to the market, you have to test your eyesight. Because, due to the development of information, it is becoming more and more difficult to "picking up leaks", because people with genuine antiques in their hands can easily find out whether their treasure is genuine or fake, and thus treat the real treasure as a fake The chance of selling the goods at a lower price is getting smaller and smaller.
Of course, I can't say enough. There are always opportunities. For example, now, Arthur is walking, stopping in front of a booth and squatting down. . .
