Chapter 6 Falling True Fragrance
"How much does this cup cost?" Otherwise, He Chong would be lucky. He just entered the market and found a real thing in a stall.
The cup He Chong refers to is a blue and white hand pressing cup. The diameter of the mouth of the cup is about seven centimeters and the height is about four centimeters. There are two spiral patterns on the upper and lower sides of the inner wall. The outer wall is painted with a picture of a proud plum blossom. Although it simply outlines the shape of the plum blossom, it is very vivid.
The body of the cup is very thin and the weight is very light. You can hardly feel the pressure when holding it in your hand. The bottom is white and clean, with a bright glaze, which looks very beautiful.
He Chong didn't care much about this thing. If it weren't for the notification of the supernatural power, he might have let it go. Fortunately, he touched it while he was idle, and then he realized the surprise.
"That, one thousand." The stall owner didn't know He Chong and answered lazily.
"Is it too expensive?" He Chong curled his lips, "I took away one hundred yuan. If I hadn't wanted to buy it back and put it on the antique shelf, I wouldn't have bought it."
The price starts and returns the money by landing and landing. Buyers spend less money and sellers make more money. This is a contradiction, so the bargaining process occurs.
He Chong used to buy things for fifty yuan. Although there were also stinging ingredients in it, the most important thing is that everyone knows these street stalls. Even if they recognize them as old ones, they will buy them as new ones. The second is how much money is, the process is the most exciting.
"No, no, the capital is not enough." The stall owner looked disgusted and shook his head firmly, "Otherwise, I think you are happy, at least 500, how about it?"
"Okay, five hundred is five hundred." He Chong even showed a very dissatisfied look, but he still agreed...
After paying the money, the stall owner handed the cup to He Chong in a newspaper bag. Even if the transaction was completed, He Chong had no expression on his face until he walked out more than ten meters away and jumped excitedly.
He quickly took out the cup. He Chong liked the more he looked at it. The smiles on his face were almost gathering into a flower. He even smashed his mouth while watching.
The reason why He Chong was so excited was not because it was a real thing, but because of the text that appeared in his mind.
"The blue and white cup of plum pony hand pressed by the early Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and its shape..."
The others are secondary, and the most important ones are two knowledge points, one is the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and the other is the early Kangxi period.
Although these two knowledge points are connected, there is a big difference. The first point is to prove that this cup is an item in the early morning, and the second point is the top priority.
You should know that Nurhaci established the Qing Dynasty and entered the pass only in Shunzhi. At that time, the firing of official kilns had already begun. However, because they had just entered the pass, the situation was not very stable. The official kilns at that time were not as exquisite as those in the later period. On the contrary, in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the folk kilns became more powerful than official kilns. Therefore, the porcelains in the industry usually say that "the folk kilns are so angry that officials are killed", which is the meaning.
The official kilns at that time were of course very expensive, but due to historical reasons, the folk kilns were much more valuable than those in other periods. This is also the reason why He Chong was excited.
"Young man, it's a coincidence. We met again." While He Chong was looking at the things in his hand without anyone else, a voice suddenly came from his ear. When he turned around, he found that it was the old man who bought the abacus yesterday.
"Old man, are you here to buy things too?" He Chong asked with a smile, "Are you gaining anything today?"
"I just arrived not long ago and didn't see anything good." The old man replied with a smile, but suddenly saw the cup in He Chong's hand, his eyes lit up, and he asked, "Is this what you found today? Can you show me?"
"Look at it casually." He Chong said and handed over the cup.
The old man took out the magnifying glass, but it was useless. After looking at it for a long time, he glanced at the magnifying glass at the bottom of his feet and then exclaimed a sigh of praise.
"What a blue and white hand-pressing cup from the early Kangxi period." The old man admired, "If you hadn't taken this thing, if you saw it on the stall, I would have missed it. You guys, you have such a good eye!"
The old man said it right, this thing is indeed easy to make people mislead, all because the cup is too new and does not look like an old guy from a distance.
But as the saying goes, an old man must be a treasure as new as a new person, and an old man is also a knowledgeable person. He can see the truth with a little careful look. No wonder he admires so much.
"You are a fool, you praised me. I'm just lucky." He Chong was modest.
"Did you take action on this thing?" The old man obviously didn't have enough money, and he wanted to collect the good thing when he saw it.
"Of course..." He Chong was overjoyed when he heard this. He didn't expect that the old man would buy it, but his expression changed halfway and he said, "Old man, wait for me a while, I'll go see something."
After saying that, he walked to a stall filled with various woods without waiting for the old man to reply.
"What is this?" He Chong took out a piece of wood from the bottom of the side of the pile of wood and asked, "How much?"
To be honest, the wood He Chongwen was so ugly, roughly as thick as a bowl, with arms length and black and white skin, but there was a hole the size of a fist in the middle, which was obviously caused by insects over the years. It was placed there inconspicuously, not to mention that someone was interested.
He Chong frowned before picking up the wood, but just after he picked it up, his brows stretched out, but his expression did not change much.
"Six hundred." The stall owner seemed to care little about this thing.
Now the wood is being fryed in the dark, and all the small-leafed red sandalwood and Hainan Huanghuali have been frying to sky-high prices, so there are many people surrounding the stall. They are asking about the seemingly expensive wood, so the stall owner will naturally not be too concerned about He Chong.
"There is a hole here, and it's so expensive?" Bargaining is a necessary procedure, and He Chong cuts it out on a routine basis.
"This is Haihuang." The stall owner replied, "It's already very cheap."
At this time, the old man also came over, looking at the wood in He Chong's hand, with a confused face.
To be honest, He Chong's heart was so big that he actually let the old man take the blue and white cup and see other things, and he was not afraid of running away.
"Who are you fooling? Hai Huang looks like this?" He Chong curled his lips, "I will take it if it's OK."
The stall owner obviously had no intention of calculating He Chongduo, so he agreed immediately, and it didn't take five minutes until the transaction ended.
"What did you buy?" The old man asked the wood to look at it, but still couldn't see the clues. He asked in confusion, "It should be a good thing when you look very happy, right?"
"Yes, it's very good stuff." He Chong smiled mysteriously, then returned to the wood stall and said to the stall owner, "Boss, lend me your wooden saw."
The stall owner threw the wooden saw to He Chong casually and continued to greet the guests.
He Chong didn't avoid it, so he found a place next to the stall that was fine, and sawed it down from the edge of the hole. It took a long time to saw it all open.
"Is this..." The old man still didn't understand the wood after seeing it, but he vaguely felt that the wood seemed not simple.
Because the surface of this wood is inconspicuous, but after being sawed open, the hole that was originally worm-eating was filled with bumpy and rotten wood-like substances everywhere.
