In the end, the white jade warding off evil spirits was sold for 7.5 million, which shocked He Ren.
Originally, he thought that those who could compete today might be Fang Mingxuan, Xie Baokun and Xu Qingjie, but he did not expect that there would be experts.
Oh no, it should be said that there is still a big grievance.
But on the bright side, even a collector of Fang Mingxuan's level almost looked at it, and ordinary people would definitely not be able to tell the authenticity.
For most people, this is actually enough.
Fang Mingxuan sighed secretly. Even without He Ren's reminder, he wouldn't be able to win this evil spirit warding. He still had 7 million in cash left, so he couldn't compete with others.
Fang Mingxuan glanced at the buyer who bought the evil spirits, and He Renqi said, "Mr. Fang, do you know this person?"
"I know you, but he definitely didn't buy it." Fang Mingxuan said angrily, "He doesn't have the strength yet."
"Um?"
He Ren and the three of them all pricked up their ears. Fang Mingxuan's tone sounded like there was gossip.
Fang Mingxuan said casually, "This man's name is Feng Di, he is a well-known professional broker in Jiangsu Province."
He Ren didn't understand. What happened to the broker? Although brokers only want to make money, the antiques industry cannot be without brokers.
Just like Zhou Zhou, without him, it would be difficult for He Ren to sell many things. The cricket jar in his hand was ready to be handed over to Zhou Zhou for operation. Once it was done, it could be sold for more than a million.
Fang Mingxuan saw He Ren's doubts and explained, "Feng Di is not an ordinary broker. He has good eyesight and is very smart, but he doesn't follow the right path and specializes in low-income people. I'm afraid he is here to work for some big shot again." Rice washers."
The three of them suddenly realized that this was the case.
Brokers are normal, but such brokers are despised.
It's normal to like money, but a gentleman likes money in a wise way, washing rice and making black gloves for others. He Ren has always looked down on such people.
Feng Di seemed to realize that someone was talking about him behind his back. He turned to look at Fang Mingxuan, smiled slightly, and cupped his hands. Fang Mingxuan curled his lips and looked away, as if looking at Feng Di would dirty his eyes. Same.
Feng Di smiled slightly and was not angry at all. He was indeed a well-educated person.
Xie Baokun became nervous because he saw five men sitting next to Feng Di wearing the same black suit and sunglasses at night. Each of them had two oversized suitcases, which were obviously full of cash.
If Feng Di is really here to wash rice, then he will probably sell the next two items. I'm afraid this little money is not enough...
"Uncle Fang, I think they have a lot of cash. If the blue and white porcelain bowl is real, can you..."
"No problem, I still have seven million, which I can lend you all."
Fang Mingxuan didn't hesitate at all. What's the point of borrowing some money to make Feng Di feel embarrassed? Anyway, he came here for the white jade to ward off evil spirits, and had no interest in the other two things.
Xie Baokun felt a little relieved when the penultimate lot was also pushed up on a trolley.
The host was still very excited, "The next item to be auctioned is a large blue and white bowl with folded branches, flowers and fruits, fired in the imperial kiln during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty. It is 29.5 centimeters in diameter. The starting price is two million, and each increase in price must not be less than one hundred thousand. Please. Everyone comes on stage in an orderly manner..."
This time He Ren breathed a sigh of relief because it was genuine.
Name: Xuande Ming Dynasty official kiln blue and white bowl with folded branches, flowers and fruits
Age: five hundred and ninety-six years
Appearance: The carcass is thick, the enamel is delicate, the interior is white glaze, and the interior is plain without lines; the outer wall is decorated with blue and white flowers, the mouth edge is painted with two blue and white string patterns, and the abdomen is painted with six groups of broken branches, flowers and fruits. Under the outer rim, there is a six-character regular script inscription "Xuande Year of the Ming Dynasty" written in blue and white horizontally on the outer edge, which is a unified decoration for this large bowl.
Origin: This product is a model of blue and white royal porcelain from the Xuan Kiln. The selection of materials, sample preparation, painting utensils, and inscriptions are all exquisite. It is a new style created during the Xuande period. The Shangshan Supervisor will put forward the firing requirements, and the specific design will be handed over to the Restoration Office under the Ministry of Industry and delivered to the Imperial Ware Factory for firing.
Materials used: Imported clear material-Suma Liqing.
Price: market price ¥12,000,000, recommended highest auction price ¥18,000,000.
It would be much easier to handle the genuine product. Just follow the information given by the Treasure Appraisal Eye and cooperate with He Ren's understanding of blue and white porcelain, and just praise it fiercely.
Blue and white porcelain is considered the mainstream variety of Chinese porcelain, and it should also be the most famous variety.
Of course, many young people may know blue and white porcelain because of Jay Chou's "Blue and White Porcelain" or the blue and white porcelain skin in LOL.
The lyrics of the song "Blue and White Porcelain" are indeed well written, but there are some problems.
The most important point is that the sentence "The sky is blue waiting for misty rain" is actually the story of Ru porcelain, and sky blue is also the color of Ru porcelain.
It is said that Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty saw in his dream that the sky was very beautiful after the rain and the sky cleared, so he ordered craftsmen to bake it in this color.
However, if you want porcelain to have a sky-blue effect, you need high humidity. Although ancient porcelain firing technology was developed, there was no way to control humidity, so you could only wait for misty and rainy days with high air humidity before firing.
The so-called "after the rain, the sky is clear and the clouds are broken, this color is the future", which is the origin of "the sky is blue and the misty rain is waiting".
There is another way of saying that the story is the same, but the protagonist is different. Some people think that this incident should be the instruction given by Chai Rong, the second emperor of the later Zhou Dynasty, to Chai Kiln.
In any case, it has nothing to do with blue and white porcelain.
Also, "writing Han official script on the bottom of the bottle" and "copying Song script inscriptions" are also inaccurate. Blue and white porcelain does not have official script and Song script inscriptions, and is generally in regular script, seal script or cursive script.
Of course, the lyrics are definitely not reality. Lao Fang also likes to collect and must know this knowledge. He wrote this for the beauty of literary and artistic creation, so there is no need to be harsh.
But He Ren is a treasure appraiser, so he must be strict.
So he was giving popular science to Zhang Nuo and Xie Baokun, "Blue and white porcelain actually existed during the Tang and Song Dynasties, but the firing conditions and technology were not mature enough, and there were no high-quality products. By the Yuan Dynasty, the technology for firing blue and white porcelain at the Hutian kiln in Jingdezhen became more mature. During the Ming Dynasty, blue and white became the mainstream of porcelain, especially during the Xuande period, when it reached its peak."
Xie Baokun was extremely anxious. People were bidding for the auction, but He Ren was still selling popular science.
"Brother He, it's already three million. Can you give me an accurate answer? Is it genuine?"
He Ren smiled slightly, repeated the information on the treasure appraiser, and added, "The decorative lines of this bowl are smooth, the lines are clear, and it is completed in one go. The coating is thick and has a history of at least five or six hundred years. There is no doubt that it is authentic, and it is From the official kiln."
Xie Baokun breathed a sigh of relief and quickly raised his placard to bid.
Fang Mingxuan asked, "He Xiaoyou, why do you insist it's an official kiln?"
"It depends on the material." He Ren said firmly, "This bowl is made of Suma Liqing, a material imported from Persia. The porcelain produced with this green material is blue with black, deep and rich, and will have a tin-like color under the light. , and it has a triangular crystal shape, and you will feel unevenness when you touch the surface with your hands.”
"This kind of material is very rare, and private kilns are generally reluctant to use it. If the kiln is destroyed, the kiln owner will probably cry to death. We all know that blue and white porcelain is not so easy to bake..."
Fang Mingxuan nodded frequently. He wanted to test He Ren. He didn't expect that He Ren was so familiar with porcelain. It was really rare.
The two of them were there, but Xie Baokun was in trouble. As expected, Feng Di took action, and the price had reached eight million...
