Let You Collect The Waste! Waste! Do You Understand? !

"Jiang Chen, where are the things?"

Chen Wanshan asked straight to the point.

Jiang Chen was also unambiguous and placed the porcelain plate in front of Chen Wanshan.

Chen Wanshan picked up the porcelain plate and asked with a smile: "I think you got this blue and white red piece for 5,000 yuan from two old gangsters. Everyone said it was a scam. You must know it in your heart, right?"

Jiang Chen said frankly: "The scene between those two people was fake, but I think the thing in their hands is real."

There are Jiang Chen’s words.

Chen Wanshan was also reassured.

He still has great confidence in Jiang Chen's vision.

Wang An also knew about Jiang Chen's past and knew that although he was young, he was particularly proficient in antiques, so he no longer worried about it and nodded.

Seeing that Yang Fugui has arrived.

Chen Wanshan asked a lot: "Lao Yang, you came first, you must have seen it already, right?"

Yang Fugui looked a little embarrassed and nodded: "After reading it, I personally think the problem is huge and it's not true."

"Oh? This is the first time you two have had a disagreement."

Chen Wanshan felt strange.

Identified several times before.

Both Yang Fugui and Jiang Chen had the same appraisal opinion.

But this time, Jiang Chen thought it was true, but Yang Fugui gave a false judgment.

This made Chen Wanshan even more interested.

then.

Start tasting.

"The walls of this porcelain plate are painted with four dragons, two each with five claws and two with three claws, shuttled between blue and white cirrus clouds; among them is a winged dragon with three claws and a fin on its tail. The dragon pattern on the center of the plate changes from sideways to For the positive direction, the rolling waves no longer cover the dragon's body, highlighting its strong and domineering appearance. It is painted with alum red to enhance the visual contrast between the swimming dragon and the cobalt blue seawater cirrus clouds, and makes it more auspicious. The edge of the plate is cleverly decorated with waves and seawater stripes. Together, the different decorative elements are more cohesive, and together with the tribute painting of the Nine Dragons on the whole vessel, it is magnificent."

Wang An commented on the appearance of blue and white.

And then give the conclusion:

"You must be an emperor to dare to use auspicious dragons as decoration. This blue and white red piece must be an imperial artifact."

Chen Wanshan nodded in agreement: "I think so too. Judging from the glaze color and craftsmanship, this plate probably came from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty. It's hard to imagine that such a fine piece of blue and white red from the Ming Dynasty

How could it appear in the hands of people running around in the world? "

The two people had the same judgment as Yang Fugui.

The glaze color, firing process, etc. are consistent with the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty.

The two continued to watch.

Turn the blue and white red over.

This look.

Chen Wanshan and Wang An were also stunned.

"It's normal to apply white glaze on the base, but why is it all white glaze, not even the blue and white inscription..."

Porcelain soles!

Blank!

If there is a blank piece of paper!

Chen Wanshan and Wang An looked at each other.

Both of them also saw doubts in each other's eyes.

Not surprisingly, the two people immediately thought that the blue and white red piece was most likely a fake. Otherwise, how could they explain that the blue and white red sole was not signed?

How to explain that this blue, white and red piece would appear in the hands of two swindlers?

Follow this general direction.

Chen Wanshan and Wang An both tried to find clues from other places and collected false imitations of evidence documents.

No matter how you look at it.

Both of them have to make a judgment of "genuine".

So true!

Except for the signature, every detail is the same as the real thing!

"It shouldn't be..." Wang An stared at the glaze color in the magnifying glass, puzzled: "There is no signature, but everything else looks like old things from the Ming Dynasty. Nowadays, the counterfeiting methods have become so sophisticated. Already?"

Chen Wanshan tilted his head to think, shook his head and said: "It's not that simple. If you and I want to fake a piece of porcelain and make all the details of the porcelain exactly the same as the real thing, then you and I will be so careless that we don't even sign our signatures." If you don’t even make it, will others know it’s fake at a glance? The probability of such a situation is too small.”

Wang An asked: "Do you think this blue and white red piece is authentic?"

Chen Wanshan lacked confidence, "Except for the signature, everything looks real..."

He is proficient in Ming history.

But no matter how he recalled it, he could not find a reason why the blue and white red piece was not signed.

Tell the truth.

Tell lies or not.

It is difficult to distinguish between true and false.

The three bosses were worried, staring at this blue and white dragon plate with red patterns and scratching their heads and ears in embarrassment.

For a while.

The three were at an impasse.

[Zun Du and Fake Du? The three bosses can’t make up their minds? 】

[Do you think experts are omnipotent? In the antique world, experts have noticed a lot of things, so it’s not surprising. 】

[I still admire Brother Chen. He has such a sharp eye. After just two glances, he was ready to buy it without any hesitation! 】

-[If you made tens of millions and were asked to spend 5,000 yuan to buy a lottery ticket, you wouldn't hesitate. 】

Although everyone here is a big boss, no one dares to draw conclusions easily about antiques.

so.

The three of them didn't have enough evidence and didn't dare to say that this thing was fake.

Jiang Chen reminded: "Is it possible that this blue and white red piece was made by the Qing Dynasty and imitated the Ming Dynasty?"

As soon as these words came out.

Chen Wanshan, Wang An, and Yang Fugui suddenly raised their heads.

Because the three of them recognized at a glance that this was porcelain from the Ming Dynasty, but now Jiang Chen said that it was from the Qing Dynasty!

To put it harshly.

Isn’t this a slap in the face to the three big bosses?

Yang Fugui was puzzled: "What's the basis?"

Jiang Chen walked forward, picked up the blue and white porcelain plate and introduced:

"The Ming Dynasty royal family's research on the development of blue, white, and red varieties may have begun at the beginning of the establishment of the royal kiln. However, the two colors of blue and vermilion are underglaze colors. Underglaze red is more difficult to fire, and overglaze alum red is Color is easier to grasp, and the process is as follows: first paint blue and white dragon patterns under the glaze, and then add red color to paint wave patterns on the glaze after one kiln firing. Then in the Xuande Dynasty, blue and white red firing was successful, but due to technical limitations, it took hundreds of years. It is still difficult to make blue-and-white red ones smoothly, and most of them are damaged, which makes blue-and-white red ones relatively rare."

"Until the Qing Dynasty, craftsmanship and techniques improved greatly, and the difficulty of firing blue and white red porcelain was greatly reduced, so blue and white red porcelain became common."

"The emperor of the Qing Dynasty would send the antique porcelain treasures stored in the palace to Jingdezhen for craftsmen to imitate. I saw the dragon pattern painted on this product. The center of the vessel is painted with a five-clawed dragon on one side, rising above the waves, and the wall is decorated with three dragons. The painting method and concept of "Wandering in the Clouds" originated from the dragon-patterned plate from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty. At first glance, anyone would think it is an old object from the Ming Dynasty."

"However, if you look closely, you can find that the two dynasties have different paintings of auspicious dragons: the auspicious dragons painted in the Ming Dynasty are more powerful and powerful, and the waves of the sea are also turbulent and full of tension; compared with The auspicious dragons painted in the Ming and Qing dynasties were much more peaceful, free and lively, subtle and graceful. It can be seen that the taste of dragons in the two dynasties was quite different."

Jiang Chen finished speaking in one breath and quickly poured a cup of tea to soothe his throat.

By the way, leave the three of them time to think.

really.

After listening to the judgment of "Qing imitating Ming" given by Jiang Chen.

The three people gradually found the clue.

The auspicious dragons and auspicious clouds painted on this blue and white piece give people a feeling of being agile and peaceful, not fierce and powerful.

Yang Fugui looked soothed and said, "That's true, so this blue and white red piece is from the Qing Dynasty?"

"Can't be wrong."

"Xiao Jiang is indeed very knowledgeable."

"If this blue-and-white-red piece comes from the Qing Dynasty... Let's put it this way!" Thinking of a certain possibility, Chen Shishan slapped his thigh and said, "Could it be Kangxi's unique porcelain?"

Chen Wanshan's speculation.

It gave everyone a new research direction.

Wang An also seemed to have some realization and said: "It is possible!"

Only Yang Fugui couldn't understand: "You two, can you explain it in detail?"

Chen Wanshan did not hesitate to teach me.

Let’s start with the knowledge about Kangxi’s Incomparable Porcelain:

"Since the Tang Dynasty, craftsmen have had the habit of inscribing porcelain. Engraving, scratching, sealing, and writing on the objects can indicate the age, origin, use, craftsman, or collector's name of the object, which is also called an inscription. . Especially the royal nobles, they pay more attention to this matter. The signature was popular in the Ming Dynasty. At that time, under the influence of Zhu Yuanzhang, not only the porcelain, but even a brick had to be marked with the name of the producer and the date of production. Therefore, the porcelain of the Ming Dynasty , both the royal and civilian porcelains are signed.”

"Later, during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, there was a very special period where inscriptions were prohibited. During the Kangxi period, the founding of the Qing Dynasty was unstable and uprisings continued. In the second year of Kangxi, the Qing court distorted the history of the Ming Dynasty, and the former ministers privately revised the "History of the Ming Dynasty". Folk scholars also started a trend of privately revising the history of the Ming Dynasty, saying that 'the country can be destroyed, but the history cannot be destroyed'. The trend of the previous dynasty still existed, which made Kangxi feel terrified."

"In the fifth year of Kangxi's reign, Obai took power, and the internal struggles in the Qing court became fierce, which made Kangxi physically and mentally exhausted."

"In the twelfth year of Kangxi, three Han vassal kings headed by Wu Sangui rebelled under the banner of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty. The people responded, and it was known as the 'San Francisco Rebellion' in history. In the thirteenth year of Kangxi, the rebellion intensified, and many Han officials in the mainland also rebelled. Responding to the Three Feuds made Kangxi even more afraid that the Qing court would be destroyed."

"According to "Qing Palace Chronicles", at the time of internal and external troubles, a eunuch holding porcelain passed by and accidentally smashed the porcelain in front of Kangxi. Kangxi was frightened and looked down to see that the "Great Qing Kangxi" signed at the bottom was smashed. The fall into pieces made Kangxi uneasy, thinking that this was a bad omen from heaven indicating that the Qing Dynasty would fall into pieces."

"So, Kangxi issued an order prohibiting the Qing Dynasty's inscriptions on porcelain."

"According to documents unearthed in Jiangxi, Zhang Qizhong, the magistrate of Fuliang County in Jiangxi, once issued an order: 'It is forbidden for households in the town to write era names and the writings of saints and saints on porcelain to avoid damage. This is to tell the craftsmen in Jingdezhen that they are not allowed to write on porcelain. The name of the Qing Dynasty and the emperor's name, so as not to break into pieces, which would be unlucky for the Qing Dynasty and the emperor.'

"Therefore, none of the porcelain produced during this period was signed."

"It wasn't until the eighteenth year of Kangxi that the Qing government severely damaged the rebels. The rebels could no longer threaten the Qing government. Kangxi was overjoyed and announced a great victory at the Imperial Meridian Gate. Kangxi then ordered that the porcelain could continue to be inscribed. Since then, the bottom of Qing Dynasty porcelain has been It’s signed.”

After listening to what Chen Wanshan said.

Wang An nodded repeatedly: "Yes, this happened in history. The porcelain produced during this period was called unpatterned porcelain, which was quite special.

After hearing this history, Yang Fugui was also shocked.

He is in the antiques industry.

In more than 20 years, this is not the first time I have learned about unmarked porcelain.

""~Forgive me for being ignorant..."

Seeing that Yang Fugui felt ashamed, Chen Wanshan comforted him: "I can't blame you. After all, there are very few unmarked porcelains that have been completely preserved to this day. They are also considered unpopular in the collection world, and few people know about them."

Again.

Man cannot be omniscient and omnipotent.

Even Chen Wanshan, a history professor at Peking University, only found the right research direction after Jiang Chen reminded him.

【So, is this blue and white red one real? 】

[Can anyone tell me how much this thing is worth?]

[Shit! I knew Brother Xinchen would never make a mistake!]

"It's a good thing. I'll check the previous auction information."

As chief appraiser at Sotheby's auction house.

Chen Wanshan immediately took out his mobile phone and began to search for relevant information to see how much this blue and white red piece was worth.

Wang An was holding the blue and white red one in his arms. He looked at Jiang Chen and said with a smile: "Xiao Jiang, when Lao Chen gives you a reference price later, just make an offer. This piece has no signature."

Blue and white, I am determined to win on behalf of the Jiangnan Museum.

Each provincial government allocates a fixed budget to its own museum every year, which is used to purchase antiques from the private sector and put them in the museum.

As a provincial museum in Jiangnan Province.

The Jiangnan Museum has naturally the highest budget.

Therefore, Wang An is very confident.

Soon.

After reading the relevant information, Chen Wanshan took a deep breath and smiled. He knew what was going on, so he opened his mouth and said: "Minister Wang, Xiao Jiang, I have read the price of this blue and white red piece."

, about 24 million, of course, this is just my estimate. "

[Take?! Take less?! Twenty-four million?! Damn it!]

【No, a piece of porcelain is so expensive!】

【I will cry to death on horseback! 】

[Brother Chen, don’t forget, you are a waste collector!]

[Brother Chen picked up another big leak!]

Even Wang An, who was full of confidence, was shocked when he heard the price of 24 million, and almost choked on his saliva.

He looked at Chen Wanshan with some suspicion:

"Old Chen, is it really worth more than 20 million?"

Chen Wanshan nodded: "Why are you lying to me? (It's so good), it's indeed more than 20 million. If your museum can't afford it, then leave it to our Sotheby's auction house.

Wang An became anxious: "What the hell! I want this thing!"

Chen Wanshan just bought Tang Bohu bookshelf.

I can't afford much money to bid at the moment.

And Yang Fugui is just here to make soy sauce. With all his wealth put together, he can't easily spend more than 20 million to buy a blue and white red.

Seeing Wang An's high interest, Jiang Chen thought for a while and said: "Minister Wang, I'm offering 25 million [if you want it, we can make the deal now."

Jiang Chen thought, it was the museum's money anyway, not Wang An's personal money, so Wang An wouldn't feel bad.

that's the truth.

Wang An smacked his lips. Although he felt a little distressed, he still nodded and said: "Only 25 million! However, I can't pay you this money right now..."

then.

Wang An explained in detail to Jiang Chen the process of acquiring cultural relics for the museum.

The procedures are complicated and the settlement time is long.

As little as three months.

As long as three years.

I felt a little regretful about giving it to Jiang Chen.

This might as well go to the auction house.

But now that the matter has come to this, Jiang Chen cannot regret it. Thinking optimistically, with this sale, he can also establish a relationship with the provincial museum, which will definitely be beneficial in the future.

"If you have no other questions, come with me to sign the formalities this afternoon."

Wang An invited.

"OK!"

Jiang Chen agreed.

After having a meal, I said hello to the audience, went off the air, took Wang An's car to visit several departments, and signed many documents.

You have to queue up to do business.

But with Wang An's relationship, Jiang Chen can use the internal channel, and the processing speed is not unusually fast.

We successfully completed the procedures before the relevant departments got off work.

Blue and white were brought back to the museum by Wang An.

Jiang Chen also received a down payment of 3 million. .
