Reborn Capital Empire

Chapter 616 Hutian Kiln

…

"Since it's called a ghost city, there is a reason for it. By the way, Mr. Guo. I have a few words to tell you before entering."

"Speaking?"

"The ghost city pays attention to 'heroes don't ask where they came from, and babies don't ask where they came from', so when you go in later, no matter what you encounter, you can bid if you want, but you can't ask random questions. There is also 'no one is recruited for taking photos', so bring a flashlight Go in, you can't take a superhuman face, you can only see things!"

Guo Shouyun nodded and said, "Apart from these?"

"It's enough not to make any noise when you go in later." Zhou Ziqi shook her head. Then a flashlight was handed over.

"Mr. Zhou is interested, but I'm ready!"

He took the flashlight that Matthew handed over in his hand and shook it.

"I'm doing this too much, let's go!"

Guo Shouyun nodded and followed Zhou Ziqi into the crowd. Compared to his leisurely stroll, Matthew, who followed behind, was indeed highly nervous. In such a crowded place, the security gap is too great, and you can be in danger if you are not careful. Knowing that you can't persuade OSS, you can only be as vigilant as possible.

Not to mention Matthew's nervousness, Guo Shouyun, who knows the security situation in China best, is not worried about his own safety at all. As soon as he entered the crowd, he looked around curiously.

The large and small booths are exactly the same as what he saw in Panjiayuan. Porcelain, pottery, calligraphy and painting, ancient books, bronzes, jade carvings, wood carvings and other types of works of art are dazzling, as long as you can think of it. Unexpectedly there is also here. Of course, true or false is another matter.

Although there are a lot of things, Guo Shouyun knows how much he has. Come here and see it, just buy it. With his level of appreciation, 90% of them will be pitted!

But looking at him, I found a very interesting phenomenon. Most of the people who go shopping have eyes and look polite.

After noticing his expression, "Most of the Taobao shoppers who come here are university professors. They have high incomes, have higher spiritual pursuits than ordinary people, and have some knowledge of appreciation, so they are frequent visitors here. But these years There are fewer and fewer things in 'Xinkeng', more and more fakes, and Taobao people have become a mixed bag!"

"What does Xinkeng mean?" Guo Shouyun noticed a new name.

"It's something that was just dug out of the tomb. It's called 'new pit' in the industry. If it is an orderly inheritance, it's called 'old pit'. These are all terms passed down by the elders of the Chinese antiques industry."

"I see!"

Guo Shouyun nodded clearly.

"Let's go and have a look!"

Zhou Ziqi took a few steps forward and squatted down in front of a booth about 3 meters long and 15 meters wide. The vast majority of the stalls are porcelain and pottery, with a small amount of paintings and calligraphy, and there are many broken pieces of porcelain in the corner on the right.

The stall owner is a man in a thick blue coat. Because he wears a mask, his hair is covered by a hat, and the dim lights around him make it impossible to judge his age, let alone his appearance.

While Guo Shouyun was looking at the booth, Zhou Ziqi had already taken out a flashlight and looked at a large bowl.

This is a large bowl with a length of about 20 centimeters, oblique straight walls, blue and white glaze, with children playing and continuous floral patterns inside.

For identification, Guo Shouyun is just getting started. Because I usually like calligraphy, I do more research on calligraphy and painting, but the categories of porcelain and jade are much worse. At this moment, Zhou Ziqi really had no clue about the name of the big bowl in his hand.

"Boss, let's join hands!"

The stall owner glanced at Zhou Ziqi and stretched out his right hand. However, at the same time as it stretched over, he also put a wide, sleeve-like thing on his arm.

Zhou Ziqi also put his right hand deep into the sleeve, and outsiders could not see what was inside. After a while, the two sides held hands at the same time. Zhou Ziqi didn't take care of the bowls on the booth, got up and dragged Guo Shouyun away.

"This is the end?"

After taking Guo Shouyun three meters away from the booth, Zhou Ziqi lowered her voice and said, "The bowl just now was a Hutian kiln doll bowl. Hutian kiln, also known as Jing~Dezhen kiln, was the largest kiln system in the south of the Song Dynasty. Thousands of kilns fired at the same time in the Song Dynasty. The kiln fires all night long. The Hutian kiln uses the dragon kiln to fire, the longest can reach 200 meters, and tens of thousands of pieces of porcelain are fired at one time. So far, there are a lot of them in the world.”

"The largest surviving Hutian kiln bowl is a bowl called "sandbag tire". Its tire is so poor that it can only be used as a burial vessel. The price of bowls is higher, depending on the quality of the glaze, the artistic level of engraving and embossing, and the size, the price ranges from several thousand yuan to tens of thousands of yuan.”

"The Hutian kiln doll bowl just now has a color like white jade, a smooth peptide glaze, and a very thin body. It is the top grade in the Hutian kiln. Although the firing volume is large, the price is also more than 50,000. Unfortunately, it is not a pot, bottle, Respect and wait for the stand, otherwise the price will be even higher."

"Since it's a good thing, why didn't Mr. Zhou take the opportunity to buy it?" Guo Shouyun asked.

"The stall owner is obviously a know-it-all. He asked for 45,000 when we approached him just now. Although it's not even the market price of this Hutian kiln doll bowl, the profit margin is already very small. In addition to my collection There is already a Hutian kiln bowl, and although the decorations on the inside of the bowl are different, there is no need to buy another at a high price.”

"So that's it. By the way, Mr. Zhou just said to join hands...?"

"Oh, this is a common transaction method in the 'ghost market'. Since ancient times, the price has been the most sensitive place in the transaction, especially many things in the ghost market are new pits that have just been unearthed, not clean, and the prices are different. . In order to avoid competition from harming their own interests, stall owners like to help each other when trading. This way, no matter whether the transaction is successful or not, they will not disclose their reserve price!"

After Guo Shouyun nodded clearly, "I don't know how to reach out...?"

"It's my mistake, I forgot to tell Mr. Guo about this. ... Generally speaking, the units of transactions vary from 10, 100, 1000, 10,000, 100,000, and 1 million, but they are commonly used in antique ghost markets. That's ten, one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand, and one hundred thousand. If the other party taps on your palm when you start to join hands, it means that what you want is in ten units, and two taps are 'hundred' ' as a unit, and so on. If this thing is ninety, it is 'knock once on your palm, and then use your index finger to make a gesture of nine', if it is nine hundred, it is 'tap twice on your palm, Then use the index finger to make a nine gesture', and the same is true for the latter."

"If it's 950 yuan, is it possible to tap twice on the palm of your hand, make a nine gesture with your index finger, and then tap on the palm of your hand to make a 'five' gesture?"

"Mr. Guo is really smart, that's it!"

"If the two sides reach an agreement, how will it be expressed?"

"Handshake, handshake agrees. If you refuse, make a fist."

"It turned out to be so, thank you Mr. Zhou for letting me know!"

"Mr. Guo is very polite. By the way, does Mr. Guo have any good things?"

"My appreciation level is not as good as Mr. Zhou's. It's better to see more and buy less in a place like this!"

"Mr. Guo doesn't have to be too scruples. If you want to improve your appreciation level, you will have to pay tuition fees. Everyone comes here like this, so do I! Besides, being here is the most important thing. As for the final result, for you and me Instead, it's secondary."

Everyone is not short of money, even if it is an eye-catching, how much money can be wasted?

Guo Shouyun nodded, "Let's go ahead and have a look!"

The two continued to move forward. Compared with Zhou Ziqi's frequent shots, Guo Shouyun watched more. Although he is not short of money, he hates being deceived, so even if he knows that the money lost by punching is not even a drop in the bucket for him, he still feels a little awkward. The most important thing is that this eye-catching antique art did not make him feel that something bright in front of him appeared.

"what!"

Just when he thought he was going to get nothing, a somewhat different booth appeared in front of him. Compared with other stalls where porcelain, paintings and jades are mixed, this stall is basically full of books. There are old-fashioned wire-bound books as well as books with modern bindings.

Maybe it's the reason why Guo Shouyun has a different feeling for books because he has worked as a writer in his two lifetimes.

After striding over and taking a quick glance, Guo Shouyun's eyes stayed on the place where the comic strip was placed.

Comic strips are also known as comic strips, comic strips, villain books, small books, doll books, etc. It originated from the portrait stones of the Han Dynasty and the Dunhuang frescoes in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It is an ancient Chinese traditional art. It was finally formed after the popularization of printing in the Song Dynasty~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It tells stories and depicts characters with continuous pictures. This form With a wide range of topics and diverse content, it is a popular reading for all ages.

In the last life, Guo Shouyun had seen a lot of such comic strips when he was a child, such as "Chicken Feather Letter", "Railway Guerrilla", "The Romance of Sui and Tang Dynasties", etc. These are the few things in the village that he can pass the time, and it is still an impression even now. profound.

But unfortunately, at that time, I didn't know that comic strips would appreciate in value in the future. In Grandpa's drawer, hundreds of comic strips were ruined by him.

Of course, not all comic strips have room for appreciation. The quality is too poor, the quantity is too much, and the quality is too low.

Most of what he saw at the booth at the moment were comic strips of little value. The general psychology, who will place the really precious things casually.

Therefore, Guo Shouyun simply picked up a few copies in it, picked them up and looked at them, and then looked at the innermost position where the comic strips were placed, which was also the position closest to the stall owner. If there is anything good in this stall, it will definitely be placed in the place where the nearest stall owner is, commonly known as 'press hall'.
