Chapter 19 Do you dare to bet?
Fang Qi picked up the enameled porcelain bottle. The upper half of this enamel porcelain bottle is in the shape of an elongated neck, and the lower half is in the shape of a sphere. It has feet on the ground. The inside of the bottle, the rim of the mouth, the edge of the feet and the outer bottom are all exposed.
, the rest are all decorated with enamel paintings, and the neck is a long string of lotus flowers hanging from the branches. Each group has three flowers, arranged in an orderly manner.
The spherical part is decorated with a lion playing with a ball, embellished with clouds, and the scene is lively; the neck and shoulders are decorated with inverted lotus petal patterns as separation, and the layout of the picture is relatively reasonable. At the bottom, there are six characters and three lines of "Made in the Qianlong Year of the Qing Dynasty"
The incised inscriptions of the seal script on the small frame, the shape of the utensils and the decoration of the enamel paintings are completely in line with the practice of porcelain from the Qianlong official kiln in the Qing Dynasty.
However, the information that Fang Qi received was forged decades ago. Fang Qi used his superpower to return the visit, and soon saw a man firing porcelain in a cellar, and after that man finished firing, he still had the porcelain in the bottle.
There were some things left inside. Although Fang Qi couldn't see clearly, he knew that this was a flaw they had left specifically. Just like Xu Fang, if there were no flaw left, the author might not be able to tell the truth from the fake.
"This is fake." Putting down the enamel color, Fang Qi looked at the Japanese and Chinese experts opposite and said:
"What?" Fang Qi's words stirred up a stir. They didn't expect that Fang Qi would actually say that the enamel color was fake.
"Young man, you said this enamel color is fake, do you have any evidence?" At this time, an old man stood up behind the Japanese young man and looked at Fang Qi. His eyes were full of calm, without a trace of joy or anger.
"Yes, but I need to break the enamel to get evidence from inside." After hearing Fang Qi's words, the Japanese young man was furious and wanted to scold Fang Qi, but the old man said first:
"Okay, as long as you can prove that this enamel color is fake, I have nothing to say, but if it is true, you need to increase the bet to 30 million U.S. dollars, how about it?" Hearing the old man's words, everyone was furious.
Enamel Cai only had a few million RMB, but he made more than 10 million yuan. He didn't expect that the other party would ask for a compensation of 30 million U.S. dollars.
"Okay, I'll hand out the check for 200 million." After saying that, Fang Qi took out the check and wrote 200 million on it, then put it on the table of Enamel. Looking at Fang Qi's feat, everyone was stunned.
Excited, they now understand, this scene is getting more and more exciting. Seeing that Fang Qi has already spent nearly 40 million US dollars, Li Qishan now regrets bringing Fang Qi here.
"Okay, such a courageous and calm boy, China is indeed a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. Little brother, let's smash it." After hearing the old man's words, Fang Qi did not do anything, but looked at the old man and narrowed his eyes.
"If it's true, I paid 30 million U.S. dollars, but if it's false, the old man won't just let it go, right?" Hearing Fang Qi's words, the old man was also stunned, but he took out a check and
He wrote a number and asked someone to send it to Fang Qi. When Fang Qi saw it, it turned out to be fifty million US dollars. Looking at the old man's handwriting, Fang Qi had to be filled with admiration.
Fang Qi placed the two checks in the place where the enamel was originally, and he held the enamel. Amidst everyone's exclamations, the enamel fell to the ground, and with a sound, the whole club fell silent. But Fang Qi walked slowly and unhurriedly.
After searching among the debris, he finally saw a dazzling red mark. Fang Qicai picked it up and asked someone to hand it over to the experts.
At this time, the young man also realized that something was wrong, but the old man had already made a decision, so he could only watch. Looking at the surprised, disbelieving, admirable, and skeptical expressions of the experts below, he knew that Fang Qi had guessed it right.
"If you suspect that I am cheating, you can try the enamel porcelain pieces to see if the enamel tiles are together." Hearing Fang Qi's words, the selectmen below all shook their heads, and one of them stood up and said:
"No need, this enamel color is fake, it's Zhu Fang. I didn't expect to meet Zhu Fang today. We didn't lose unfairly. I admire you little brother. But I don't know if I can ask you a question?"
Fang Qi, at this time the expert's eyes were filled with incredible looks.
"Excuse me." Seeing that Fang Qi was not nervous from the beginning to the end, and looked calm at every turn, the old Japanese man couldn't help but show a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
"My name is Mao Xianbing. You can call me Brother Mao. What I want to ask you is, how did you tell that this enamel color is fake?"
"Hello, Mr. Mao, I can't answer your question. Mr. Mao, you have also seen this piece of enamel. It can be said that it is completely fake and real. There is no difference between it and the real enamel. But the fake is after all.
It's fake. It doesn't have a profound historical background, but its brilliance and charm cannot be imitated. As soon as I saw this enamel color, I thought it was real.
But the longer the world goes on, the more I feel that there is something wrong there. It looks very awkward. Moreover, I have looked through the entire bottle and can't find any flaw, so I guessed that the flaw may be inside, so I was betting just now, but I
The bet has won." After hearing Fang Qi's words, the experts didn't believe it, but they also knew that it might be true. After all, Zhu Fang was so terrible that even the collectors could see through it, only a few of them could.
But the people below all took a breath, gambling, a 200 million gamble, this arrogance, even they admired it. Now they look at Fang Qi in a different way, does such a person need to curry favor with others?
?Is it possible for such a madman to curry favor with others? And Fang Qi looked at the things above and couldn't help but smile:
"Do you want to raise your bet?" Hearing Fang Qi's words, the Japanese young man almost fell down. This time it was no longer the bet just now, the old man's 50 million US dollars, the two's 30 million US dollars, a luminous pearl, Tian Huangshi
Seal, that’s a huge gamble of nearly 700 million.
Knowing this, they didn't expect that this person who suddenly appeared would actually increase the stakes. Now everyone thinks that he is a madman, a complete madman, and a gambler. Especially Li Qishan, who is below, is even more nervous, looking at
Fang Qi looked like he had a pearl of wisdom in his hand, and at the same time he was worried, but also a little obsessed.
"Raise, young man, what else can you raise? If it's money, forget it. For the rest, I can follow." This time it was the old Japanese man who spoke, and the old man also appreciated it now.
Looking at Fang Qi. In the eyes of others, Fang Qi is crazy, but what he sees is confidence.
What makes Fang Qi so confident? You must know that what they solved is glass jade. If they can't get the best jade, they can't beat them at all. But the best jade? Is it possible? So he is also full of curiosity, and if that
A small piece of scrap can produce the best jade. Even if he loses in the end, he is still convinced.
"Okay, as for the money, I'm not interested. Sister Li, go get the treasure I just found in the car. I think this thing should satisfy the old man." Hearing Fang Qi's words, Li Qishan suddenly felt weak.
But seeing everyone looking at her, it was impossible for her to dissuade Fang Qi, so she could only go get the things in the car.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Fang Qi picked up the luminous pearl and slowly admired it without any anxiety. The old man also chatted with the experts around him from time to time, and there was no sign of nervousness at all. If not for the crowd around him,
It's like a top-notch party here. The young man who just solved the stone didn't know when he was holding a glass of red wine in his hand. He looked at Fang Qi from time to time, his eyes full of curiosity.
This time he was supposed to be the protagonist. But I didn’t expect that Cheng Yaojin would appear. Not to mention the method of identification just now, the temperament on his body is worthy of deep friendship. And the most important thing is what Fang Qi will do next. You need to know
, Fang Qi dared to raise the bet, so what he added was definitely not simple. What he was even more curious about was how the scrap material that he had lost in the bet could outperform the opponent's glass species.
This is not only his doubts, but also the experts on the scene are full of curiosity. This time it is well worth it. Especially this upstart who suddenly appeared, they are even more curious.
"Here we come." Many people knew Li Qishan. When they saw Li Qishan coming back from outside, their eyes were full of curiosity. Looking at the box in Li Qishan's hand, they also knew that this was Fang Qi's raise.
"Are you sure?" Looking at Fang Qi's result box, Li Qishan couldn't help but show a hint of worry:
"Don't worry, Sister Li. I'm sure that even if I lose, I won't starve to death. I have so many things, and selling a few of them will be enough for me to live on for a lifetime. What's more, I have full confidence in myself." Looking at Fang Qi, he was not nervous.
Li Qishan couldn't help but sigh. Fang Qi also placed the box on the table and slowly opened it. The contents inside suddenly appeared on the big screen, a bunch of broken things. Many people wanted to yell, but several experts
But his face tightened.
Because the cassock looked to be old, and there was even gold thread on it, this cassock was definitely not simple. But he ignored it, but picked up the wooden fish and touched the mechanism inside. In everyone's shock, they saw the wooden fish's
The top suddenly became loose, and many people were shocked. What did this mean? There was something inside.
Fang Qi slowly took out the contents, then placed the jade seal on the table, and the yellow cloth was handed to the experts. This made everyone very confused, but after taking the piece of yellow cloth, everyone's expression changed instantly, and one
They circulated the information to each other and discussed it in low voices for half an hour, but with no results. However, the people below showed no signs of impatience, and even looked solemn.
Because the enamel painting just lasted only for a few minutes, and now a piece of yellow cloth has been discussed for half an hour and has not yet been decided. Even the old man in Japan looked solemn.
"Sir, we can't be sure about this thing now, but can we take a look at the jade seal?" Hearing the expert's words, everyone changed their colors instantly. Jade Seal, this thing turned out to be a jade seal. Even if some people guessed it was a jade seal, but look
It's still shocking.
"Yes, yes." After hearing Fang Qi's words, everyone hurried forward to check. Even the Japanese experts swarmed over. After looking at a jade seal with a magnifying glass for half an hour, as well as boxes and other objects, everyone finally
When I returned to my seat, my face was still full of shock and disbelief.
"Okay, after our constant appraisal, this thing is authentic. It is a jade seal passed down by Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty. Because it involves the Jingnan Campaign, this jade seal has a very high historical value, so we priced it at 30 million US dollars."
Hearing the experts' words, everyone took a breath. Even a piece of jade seal owned by Emperor Qianlong at that time was only more than 30 million Hong Kong dollars. Now it is only 100 million yuan. Unexpectedly, this piece of jade seal is worth 30 million yuan.
The price is US dollars, and it is priced by experts. It is also on the auction block, even if it is 300 million, it is not impossible.
"Good stuff. I didn't expect that Mr. Fang could find such a treasure today. It seems that Mr. Fang is also a collector. We will have more exchanges in the future. This is my thing." After saying that, the old man took off his hand.
The string of beads above was handed over to experts for appraisal. This time it was not as complicated as before. It only took a while for the experts’ results to come out.
"This is a string of glass jade beads, eighteen, which can be mortgaged for thirty million US dollars." After hearing this, everyone looked at the two items presented again, each worth thirty million dollars.
With the U.S. dollar and the check on it now, many people's eyes have changed, and they are silently thinking that these are a group of lunatics and crazy gamblers.
