Chapter 176 Hard-to-Eat
Zhou Xia thought in his heart, with the two of Ma Gan's appearance so vulgar, can they both have some genuine products with such kindness?
He even doubted his judgment. But it doesn't matter, Zhou Xia still has a chance to correct his mistakes. If this is really a imitation flower porcelain, the system will not be able to identify it.
However, the results prove that the firing age of this flower-porcelain double-series jar was in the same year as the gilded bronze Buddha statue in front and the terracotta horse riding of Tang Sancai, which shows that these should be made by Ma Gan and the others in the same mausoleum.
Zhou Xia couldn't say hesitated them. Anyway, he had entered this industry and should have become accustomed to such situations.
Zhou Xia nodded, and Xu Yaohui quickly negotiated the price with Ma Gan.
Although it is Tang Jun porcelain and the ancestor of Jun kiln later, the price is really not expensive.
Xu Yaohui bid 8,000 and took it easily.
The price of this type of ancient porcelain has never been high, especially those of flower porcelain jars. If it is a good thing like the Tang Lushan flower porcelain waist drum, it will naturally be a different matter.
Even so, if it is a modern imitation and fake, the profit will be quite high. As far as Xu Yaohui knows, the first boss who was engaged in flower porcelain imitation made a big deal.
After completing this transaction, Xu Yaohui was still a little dissatisfied and continued to ask Ma Gan and the others if there were any good things that had not been taken out. Maybe they would show them out and see. If it was genuine, it would be easy to discuss the price.
Ma Gan replied in a muffled voice, "Oh, Boss Xu, I'm sorry, that's all!"
"Not that, I see that you have gained a lot. Brother Qian, what do you think!" Xu Yaohui saw that the mouse was a little reluctant to speak, and immediately turned the topic to him.
Mouse's expression seemed a little hesitant, and Xu Yaohui immediately poured fire on him again, "I said, Brother Qian. Are you afraid that we can't afford the price?"
The mouse quickly smiled and said, "Look at what Boss Xu said, how could it be? There is something more precious. But before that, I had already agreed with someone."
"What's that? It's always okay to take it out and see it." Xu Yaohui is not a fool. He doesn't understand the authentic Tang Dynasty products they took out. They have made a lot of money. Although the few things they took out are genuine, they are still a little worse if they say they are high-quality products. If they can take out some good things from their hands, it will be worth it.
"This is not very good! Boss Xu, don't make things difficult for us!" Ma Gan said at this moment.
The more they said this, the more Xu Yaohui wanted to see what was going on, and asked, "Did they settle down? Have they paid the deposit or just paid the full amount!"
Ma Gan hesitated, "No, but he told us to keep it for him, Boss Xu, you know too..."
"I know, it's nothing! It's not easy for us to come here this night." Xu Yaohui said to himself, "I don't know your virtue yet. If it weren't for the sake of the previous few authentic products, he wouldn't bother to talk to them. As long as these guys have enough benefits, I can fight against the people who can follow these promises that are already useless?
Ma Gan and the mouse discussed for a while, and then Ma Gan said, "Okay, for the sake of Boss Xu, we brothers reluctantly took out the things and looked at them."
"That's right!" Xu Yaohui laughed. When Ma Gan and the others went to drag things under the bed, Xu Yaohui also whispered to Zhou Xia, "We have to look carefully later. These two guys are not fuel-efficient lamps. I'm afraid that they will dig a hole to prepare to trick us!"
Zhou Xia nodded and said nothing more.
He was a little confused before. What the hell was doing when the two of Ma Gan sang were together? After hearing Xu Yaohui's words, he immediately realized. Xu Yaohui's skill in human relationships and worldly affairs was far superior to him, and Zhou Xia was almost fooled by them. It seems that Xu Yaohui probably suffered some of their losses before, otherwise he would never be cautious.
"Just say it! Nowadays, there are few honest people in the industry, especially these tomb robbers. If they want them to be clean and honest and not tampered, it is harder than a sow climbing a tree." Zhou Xia also muttered in his heart, "The previous things may just be just a means for them to lead you into the trap. The big head is still behind. No matter what, it will be right to have a good show."
Zhou Xia himself doesn't care anyway, he has already found a huge advantage.
If it is a fake or imitation, he will ignore it and let them leave it to the so-called person who has been connected.
If it is really a good thing, you might as well join forces with Xu Yaohui and take it down.
In short, it’s still the same constant rule, just look at the quality of things! What other stories are, the preparations and setting ups, don’t worry about them.
If ordinary people who are just new to the industry see that the first three items are authentic from the Tang Dynasty, they will subconsciously think that what they took out later should be authentic from the Tang Dynasty. Or, although they are still a little alert in their hearts, they will still relax their vigilance.
But this is completely inapplicable to Xu Yaohui, the old world. The profound lessons he had learned some time ago have made him remain alert enough at any time.
Zhou Xia doesn't have to say anything else. He may not understand anything else. If he wants to deceive him, it is not impossible to buy fakes. As long as he is in a good mood or for necessary reasons, such as covering up his eyes and ears, he may also know that he is buying fakes and fool others.
Zhou Xia and Xu Yaohui were ready for the battle, and they were full of expectations that they were about to take out things.
Regardless of whether the thing is real or not, it is very interesting to make them feel energetic.
Soon, Ma Gan and the others took out the things from under the bed.
Zhou Xia and Xu Yaohui were already focusing on them because the things were packed in boxes, with foam pads inside and wrapped in paper, so they couldn't see the exact situation inside.
However, just judging from the size and shape of this box, it is a bit extraordinary.
Xu Yaohui and Zhou Xia's hearts were trembling, and they couldn't help but look at each other at the same time. The two of them had a tacit understanding and felt that this time was really interesting.
The box is about 1.5 meters and is about 40 centimeters wide. This situation allows an old expert like Xu Yaohui to roughly guess what is contained inside as soon as he meets him.
Although Zhou Xia is not as experienced as Xu Yaohui, he knew how to use the method of exclusion and quickly came to the conclusion.
This one should be a guqin in the box.
The most common way for literati and scholars in ancient times to cultivate their sentiments was to chess, calligraphy and painting.
The piano ranks first.
The piano is an extremely elegant art and a tradition that has been passed down through the ages and has been prosperous.
From the mythical "Fuxi makes the piano", "Shennong makes the piano", "Shun makes the five-string zither", to the "beautiful ladies, friends with the zither", "beat the drums with the Oden ancestor", and to the moving legends such as "high mountains and flowing water", "burn the zither and boil the crane" in the Book of Songs, the art of guqin has been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
Although Zhou Xia had incomplete music and poor music, he was not even a layman. But this did not hinder his pursuit of art. In short, it would be okay to look at it more.
Xu Yaohui is not much better. To be honest, talent is indeed needed in this.
This kind of talent they do not have had a considerable impact on the identification of this guqin.
However, Zhou Xia and Xu Yaohui will definitely not give up easily, although their expertise is not on this, but on ceramics.
If it were placed in the previous few years, in the antique collection business, there were very few people who could be called experts, and there were really not many people. However, as everyone's understanding and vision have broadened, the collection of guqin has gradually entered everyone's vision.
Zhou Xia, who is in the auction industry, has a deep understanding of this, and he is quite familiar with the auction process of the guqin.
Since the early auction in the 1990s, guqin has appeared at auction. However, the price was not high at that time. The "Ming Wanli Ziqin" sold by China Guardian was only sold for RMB 176,000.
From 2000 to the spring of 2003, the guqin auction market was in its initial development stage, and its market conditions did not fluctuate much. In the autumn of 2003, the guqin market conditions rose for a while. The Tang "Jiuxiao Huanpei" piano sold on Jiade was finally sold for RMB 3.465 million. In the same year, the Fuxi-style zither "Da Sheng Yi Yin" collected by the famous collector Wang Shixiang was sold for RMB 8.91 million in Jiadeqin, setting a world record for guqin auction at that time.
From the spring of 2004 to the spring of 2009, the guqin market entered a relatively slow development state, with the number of on-the-shots, the transaction volume was relatively small, and the price was relatively low.
In the autumn of 2009, with the further development of the guqin market by various auction houses and the flow of guqin fine products into the market, the price of the guqin auction market was constantly refreshed, and the total auction volume continued to rise. Especially in the autumn of 2010, it was of milestone significance for the guqin auction market. The Northern Song Dynasty "Song Huizong Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial Imperial
Later, the Fuxi style piano of the "Great Sage Relic" of the Tang Dynasty was sold for 115 million yuan in Guardian, China, becoming the second instrument with a total of over 100 million yuan.
Behind the sky-high price of guqins, more guqins that have been circulated in the world will inevitably induce influx of the market, and at the same time, it will also prompt many imitations and counterfeits to flow into the market.
If the guqin in front of me was really from the Tang Dynasty, it would be worth tens of millions, but it was quite easy, so Zhou Xia and Xu Yaohui could not be excited.
