Chapter 163: Feng Gang Moqi
"Boss, this enamel snuff bottle is a bit expensive for 30,000 yuan. This is a modern thing, one thousand, we want it. Don't bully us just by seeing us as newbies." Fang Qi looked at the two young men in front of him, and couldn't help but have a hint of surprise in his eyes. These two are his classmates. Although he hasn't been to school for several days, based on Fang Qi's memory, Fang Qi recognized these people for the first time after seeing them.
"Two little brothers, although this is a modern thing, do you rarely know? I don't know about the dynasty of collecting snuff bottles. The main thing I see in the collection of snuff bottles is the material and the painter, not the dynasty of the dynasty. As long as the material is good, such as jade, agate, fossil, metal, and organic materials, as long as the texture of the material reaches a certain hardness, there must be its position in the snuff bottle. Especially for this kind of exquisite painting, it is even more valuable.
Last year, a modern enamel snuff bottle painted with emperors of all dynasties was over 10 million, with an average of one million. Although this piece is not as exquisite as it is, it is not a complete set, but the painter and the material of enamel are not worth 100,000 yuan. "When the boss said, the two looked at this exquisite snuff bottle, and they couldn't help but hesitate. Finally, they gritted their teeth and took out 30,000 yuan to hand it over to the stall owner.
"Wait a minute, Professor Long didn't remind you not to touch antiques before you leave the army?" A voice sounded in their ears. The two of them couldn't help but look at the person behind them, and they were stunned. The four most noble people on the field at noon yesterday were now standing behind them, and Fang Qi was talking.
"Sir, you seem to break the rules." The stall owner looked at Fang Qi and couldn't help but speak. His eyesight naturally showed that Fang Qi and his others were not people who were short of money, and their temperament was obviously experts. However, when the two transactions were made, the third party could not interfere before the transaction was completed.
"I know, but man, these are all college students who have not yet entered the industry. Professor Long and I are good friends. There should be no problem for me to help them as an elder, right?" Hearing Fang Qi's words, the stall owner looked at the people behind Fang Qi and frowned.
"Mr. Fang, are you friends with Professor Long?" Feng Gangmoqi was surprised when he heard Fang Qi's words, and then he couldn't help looking at the stall owner, but then he couldn't help but say to the stall owner:
"We are Professor Long's students, and Mr. Fang is indeed our elders." Hearing Moqi's words, the boss looked unwilling. But looking at Fang Qi, he couldn't help but put away the snuff bottle in his hand, which could deceive these two novices. However, when facing a person like Fang Qi, he knew that he could not cheat, so he naturally didn't make any trouble.
"Just just now, it was just a handicraft. Modern enamel snuff bottles are indeed very valuable. But it was a master's work. Even so, the good ones were only a thousand, and it was just one or two thousand. Porcelain like this was just a glossy appearance, and it was not made of enamel at all."
Looking at the two people in front of him, Fang Qi said directly, but the stall owner was anxious and even threatened Fang Qi with fierce eyes.
"Let's go over there and talk." Fang Qi knew the rules. He had broken the rules just now and was destroying other people's business. It was really unauthentic, so he took everyone away directly.
"Two boys, I broke the rules just now. Be careful in the future and don't go out to stroll. There are many more things here than usual, but another one of the ten items may not be real." Hearing Fang Qi's words, both of them nodded. They did learn some antique knowledge and knew what rules Fang Qi was talking about.
"Mr. Fang, don't worry, we will not come here in the future." Hearing the words of the two, Fang Qi couldn't help but smile as they saw the two of them being taught, and Old Tang suddenly interrupted:
"The two younger boys, we didn't tell you not to come here, but to ask you not to buy it. The thing just now was fake, and you were deceived without any technical content. If you were really imitation, you could lose everything. You might be able to spend money. Read more, remember more, learn more, and buy less. At least you should not buy it within the past four years, and even if you see good things, don't take action.
To train your surname, you should know that true fake masters can only succeed by taking advantage of your eagerness. If there is something urgent at home and selling it at a low price, don’t buy it. And those treasures from the ancestors must be very cautious. There are many ways here, which require time to accumulate to learn. You are still too young now."
When they heard Mr. Tang's words, both of them nodded, while Ning Yu, who was standing beside him, was surprised to see Fang Qi. Because Fang Qi broke this rule. Fang Qi was young, but she knew what she collected. Today, at least a few people thought that Longquan Sword was genuine, as well as Li Yun and Li Qishan's usual boast about Fang Qi's background, she also knew the tenth****.
"They just entered the industry and hadn't even entered the industry yet. These are still far from them. You can follow us for a night and learn more. When you graduate, you can go to my auction house to be an apprentice." Mr. Mo Da looked at the two of them and couldn't help but smile. Fang Qi helped them, which was worthy of his win. After all, it is not easy to train a newcomer. Yuntian University is also a famous university in S City.
"Thank you, Mr. Miao." Looking at the two of them with happy expressions, Mr. Miao couldn't help but shake his head and said:
"Don't be too happy too early. If you don't have real skills, I will not accept you." Mr. Miao Da's words made the two of them tighten again. However, Fang Qi smiled indifferently.
"Okay, let's take a look at the things here?" Hearing Fang Qi's words, everyone couldn't help but concentrate and walk forward again.
"This Linglong porcelain is good, the authentic product from the Qianlong period." Old Tang looked at the Linglong porcelain in his hand. Under the light, the extremely thin body is like white jade, and there is also a circle of hollowed-out rice-shaped patterns on the belly of the vessel. Dozens of small dots pass through the wall of the bowl, which is beautiful. The blue and white hair is green and gorgeous, and the auspicious pattern is painted in the heart of the bowl, "Five Blessings to Hold Longevity", which is concise and magical, with meticulous workmanship, and is absolutely an official kiln product. The blue and white seal script is written with six words "made in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty".
"The 'year style' on porcelain, especially Ming and Qing porcelain. porcelain with year style and porcelain unearthed from the dynasty tombs are all standard.
Take this Qianlong style as an example. The point above the character "big" is centered and very small, with four verticals basically parallel, and the last stroke is slightly curved. The three dots of water on the left of the character "Qing" are written in the shape of "mi". The character "yue" on the lower right is mostly long and four frames, with a small vertical in the middle. The lower part of the character "qian" is a hard and straight "s" shape, and the upper part of the "s" is mostly symmetrical to the right; the lower right part of the character "long" is usually symmetrical; there are usually a small gap above the top of the character "nian"; there are three common ways to write the character "yi". There are also this painting technique, which is definitely difficult for ordinary imitations to achieve this. There are glaze and body quality, which are also the standard for identifying an era..."
Seeing Mr. Tang explaining the authenticity of the Linglong Bowl to the two of them, both of them nodded, not knowing whether they could hear it.
"Boss, I want this bowl, how much does it cost?" Hearing Mr. Tang's words, the boss also knew that Mr. Tang was a big expert and directly exposed the price of 30,000 yuan. Mr. Tang directly chose to trade it. In the market, this thing costs at least 50,000 yuan, and Mr. Tang had no room for bargaining for 30,000 yuan.
"Chairman, can I buy this?" Fang Qi smiled as he looked at the things Ning Yu was holding. This was a string of Buddhist beads, which looked wooden, but under the electric light next to him, it looked like jade, a little transparent, and red in color, which made Ning Yu curious.
"This is Blood Dragon Wood. Blood Dragon Wood is the king of trees and has the title of King Wood. Blood Dragon Wood mainly grows in Southeast Asia tropical rainforests, Kalimantan Island, and the north belongs to Malaysia, and most of them belong to Indonesia. Its color is yellow, the wood inside and outside is consistent, has no fragrance, is dense, and can sink into water. Blood Dragon Wood is delicate and has a thick oil. Under the illumination of bright light, it is full of red and has a round color. These strings are all, two or three hundred, if you want to buy them if you exceed three hundred?"
Looking at the Buddhist beads reflected in red under the light, the three of them thought they were some treasures, but they didn't expect that Fang Qi would be so worthless. Old Tang and others smiled. This requires you to see the experience. They all need these, but in front of people they don't know, tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands are possible.
"Oh." Hearing that the string of Buddhist beads only cost a few hundred yuan per string, Ning Yu instantly lost interest. She faced bracelets worth over 100 million yuan every day, and she really didn't like things worth hundreds of yuan. But Feng Gangmoqi was interested in it. They could still afford things worth hundreds of yuan, especially such fresh things like jade under the light.
After asking, a string of Buddhist beads, 300 yuan, was considered as Fang Qi's words. This was the stall owner who fought for his own interests to the greatest extent. If Fang Qi said that, it would be possible to argue that 150% of them. Of course, Fang Qi was too lazy to fight for this amount of money now. And he really liked it, he didn't mind spending money in it.
"Mr. Fang, what is the Buddhist beads in your hand?" Looking at the Buddhist beads in your hand, the two of them couldn't help but feel curious. After all, Fang Qi is a big collector in their eyes, and the things are naturally extraordinary. Fang Qi touched the Buddhist beads in his hand and couldn't help but say:
"That is the nan agarwood. You should know the preciousness and rareness of agarwood. Because the agarwood is very rare, it is difficult to form. The ancient recorded sinking now has its name but no real thing. Currently, the nan agarwood in Vietnam is the best, but the quantity is very small. This is the nan agarwood in Vietnam, and it is also a personal item of Zhu Yunwen, the second emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
The scarcity of agarwood is mainly because agarwood trees start to form fragrance due to lesions. They will go through a long growth period, which will take at least a few years to more than ten years. The formation of a high-quality agarwood requires decades or even hundreds of years. Therefore, the yield of agarwood is very small. However, the demand for agarwood on the market is very large, which has caused the price of agarwood to reach one gram of 10,000 yuan, and has a high collection value.
In the market, not to mention agarwood bracelets, even agarwood bracelets are very popular, but imitations are everywhere, so you must be careful when seeing agarwood things in the future. This kind of thing is particularly expensive, and my string of nan agarwood is no less than 1.5 million. Even if the ordinary nan agarwood is not less than 700,000 or 800,000, it cannot be taken down. The bracelets of agarwood are no less than 1,000 yuan, and there are also many.
The method of identifying agarwood is generally "touch, look, and smell".
When you touch it, the real agarwood bracelet becomes darker and brighter the more you wear it. The secondary agarwood looks like it has a layer of oil, but it doesn’t dirty your hands when you touch it, and your hands won’t be oily either. If it is a fake, it will leave a mark on your hands. Now there are fake agarwood made of mixed wood soaking potion soaked in sesame oil on the market. This may not necessarily work. The path is one foot tall and the devil is one foot tall. Be careful in the future.
It looks like ordinary agarwood bracelets are black-brown, and when they are raw, they are as color as ink, and when they are cooked, they are as heavy as gold. The nanmu is as solid as gold, moist as jade, and fragrant as honey. Otherwise, they are fakes. Look." Fang Qi took the agarwood in his hand and handed it to them both, and then said:
"Three smells are the most important means of identification among these three steps. Generally, the smell of agarwood bracelets is like some familiar medicinal smell at first. If you smell it carefully, you can't remember what it tastes. The main method of smelling agarwood is to "diamond", that is, the smell of the true agarwood bracelet drills into your nose along a thread-like path. To confirm this, just ignite the live agarwood and look carefully at the path of its cigarette. The smoke is emitted by silk threads."
Fang Qi saw the two of them really take out a lighter, and Fang Qi snatched the agarwood bracelet, which made everyone laugh. Feng Gang laughed with his cell phone. He didn't dare to burn it. This was more than one million items, and even if he sold it, he couldn't get it all together. (To be continued.)
