Wake up suddenly, back to the time when my wife and daughter had an accident

Meng Haisheng chose the "Falling Flower Poems" worth $1.2 million, so Stephen Petty naturally had to choose porcelain of similar price. But the price range was not large, so Meng Haisheng recommended a pair of koi bowls.

"The price of a pair of koi bowls that can be preserved so intact is not as simple as 1+1."

"Yes, most porcelain antiques are solitary, and it is rare to sell them in pairs. However, this pair of koi bowls is slightly plain and elegant, and it would be better if the inside was painted more richly."

Although Stephen Petty said so, he still called his consultant Ke Yaqiu over to help check the authenticity.

Ke Yaqiu is also a celebrity in the Mexican antique world, and Stephen Petty spent a lot of money to invite him over.

"Mr. Petty, there is no problem with these two koi bowls." After Ke Yaqiu confirmed, Meng Haisheng continued to show other collections.

Stephen Petty has a lot of good things in his hands, including all these foreign famous paintings. Although Meng Haisheng had seen big scenes, he couldn't help but marvel at the world's famous paintings.

"Mr. Pei Di, I am very optimistic about this imperial private seal. I wonder what your offer is and which porcelain you hope I can exchange it for."

After exchanging a few collections, Meng Haisheng went straight to the topic of today.

"I want this large glazed bottle." Stephen Pei Di has always been optimistic about this half-meter-high large glazed bottle. He has estimated the price. There are very few large glazed bottles of this size in the world, and most of them are in museums. He hasn't seen such a large glazed bottle in the Mexican auction house for at least ten years.

"Mr. Pei Di has a good eye. This large glazed bottle is the largest and most beautiful of my batch of porcelain. Look at the peony flowers on the bottle. Both the color and the shape of the flowers are the same as the real ones." Meng Haisheng exclaimed.

"It's not easy to reproduce such a large peony on a large glazed vase. It took a lot of effort to collect this large vase. You know, the larger the porcelain, the harder it is to preserve."

"There is also a very bizarre story about this large glazed vase, and I don't know whether it is true or not." Meng Haisheng began to tell, leaving Stephen Peidi stunned and completely immersed in his story.

However, Stephen Peidi was not completely fascinated by Meng Haisheng. At the critical moment, he still asked Ke Yaqiu to identify the authenticity.

"Mr. Ke, you have to look carefully. If you make a mistake, I will lose a lot." Stephen Peidi reminded.

Although I know that Ke Yaqiu is very capable, even a powerful treasure appraiser can make mistakes.

"Mr. Peidi, I never guarantee the authenticity. I can only provide my opinion as a reference." Ke Yaqiu replied.

Stephen Peidi did not take it to heart, but urged Ke Yaqiu to check the large glazed vase.

Over the years, Ke Yaqiu has handled hundreds of pieces of porcelain. As soon as he got his hands on it, he felt that the glaze texture of this large bottle was surprisingly good.

He took out a magnifying glass and examined the large bottle inch by inch, and even asked someone to turn it over and carefully examine the signature on the bottom of the bottle. This check took half an hour.

Meng Haisheng, who was standing next to him, seemed very calm even though he knew that his batch of porcelain was fake. He had double insurance for himself. Even if Ke Yaqiu saw something, he would not say a word.

As early as when he was planning, Meng Haisheng had expected that Stephen Peidi would invite Mexican appraisal experts. He bought off six relatively famous appraisal experts in the Mexican antique industry in advance, and Ke Yaqiu was one of them.

"Mr. Peidi, from my professional point of view, this large glazed bottle should have been produced in the palace during the Qianlong period, and it is the best of the best. Even now, the probability of firing such a large glazed bottle to produce a flawless one is very low."

Ke Yaqiu finally gave a conclusion.

After getting an accurate answer, Stephen Peidi began to bargain with Meng Haisheng.

Although the large glazed vase is rare, the private seal of the emperor in his hand is not cheap. Soon, Meng Haisheng also carefully inspected the private seal of the emperor and confirmed that it was a genuine product rather than a work of art.

"Boss Meng, this is the private seal used by the emperor. You only exchange it for a vase. Isn't it a bit too little?" The more Stephen Peidi calculated, the more he felt that he was at a disadvantage. After all, although the large vase was precious, it was still slightly inferior to the private seal of the emperor.

"Since Mr. Peidi said so, I naturally have to show my appreciation. This colorful birthday bowl is my gift to Mr. Peidi." Meng Haisheng said, and took out a large bowl about the same size as the koi bowl.

The inside of this bowl is printed with various auspicious patterns for birthday celebrations, and the glaze color is also quite bright. Stephen Peidi liked it very much at first sight. He originally preferred these gorgeous and mysterious patterns.

"Then I won't be polite to Mr. Meng. This birthday bowl is so beautiful."

Stephen Petty said excitedly.

"When I collected this antique, I heard that it was specially made for a certain queen mother on her birthday. It is said that the queen mother even used this bowl to eat birthday noodles. "

"It turned out that it was used by the queen mother. I must keep it well." Stephen Peidi cherished it even more.

At this time, he did not know that Meng Haisheng actually had a complete set of 12 bowls of various styles.

The whole process of bartering was very slow. At the end of the day, the two sides only exchanged ten items. But both of them were very satisfied, especially Stephen Peidi. He felt that it was a great deal to clean up the warehouse and exchange for antiques that he liked very much.

At the end of the first day, Stephen Peidi smiled and gave Meng Haisheng a big hug.

"Boss Meng, I will bring some more antiques and calligraphy and paintings tomorrow. As long as you are willing, I want to exchange all the porcelain you show."

"It depends on whether the antiques and calligraphy and paintings brought by Mr. Peidi can move my heart. "

Meng Haisheng looked at Stephen Peidi with a smile, and his heart was full of expectations. No matter how many antiques and calligraphy and paintings the other party could bring, he planned to keep them all.

"Then see you tomorrow." Meng Haisheng sent Stephen Peidi away.

Qi Chenggang and Song Xi then asked Meng Haisheng to take out the emperor's private seal again. After carefully studying the emperor's private seal, Song Xi suddenly said: "Boss Meng, do you think Stephen Peidi has the jade seal in his hand?"

"You mean that the emperor's private seal and the jade seal were likely to be together?" Meng Haisheng asked curiously.

"Yes, although the Qing Dynasty did not have the tradition of passing down the imperial seal, Kangxi and Qianlong both had jade seals. Kangxi's seal is in the country, but Qianlong's seal is missing. And this private seal is likely to be Qianlong's, so I have such a guess. "

"It's not impossible." Meng Haisheng pondered, full of expectations for the next transaction.
