Chapter 86 [Picking up leaks]
Seeing Lin Nan's dazed eyes, the beautiful woman frowned, turned her head back, and said to the stall owner: "Do you have any bottle hanging like this at home?"
"It's gone." The thin man shook his head: "This is the only one."
"Oh, okay." The woman said, picking up her bag: "Then I want this."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Nan next to him suddenly said, "Wait." Then he walked over quickly, looked at the bottle hanging in the woman's hand and said, "Miss, can you lend me this thing?"
"Miss?" The woman's slender eyebrows were tightly fixed, staring at Lin Nan and said, "Little brother, I think you are only sixteen or seventeen years old, right? As old as my daughter, I think it's better for you to call me aunt?"
"Ah...Aunt?" Lin Nan was stunned again. He said nothing. He didn't expect that the woman in front of him was almost forty years old. In fact, if she wanted to wear a more sunny dress, Lin Nan would have thought she was less than 30...
Looking at Lin Nan's surprised and inexplicable eyes, the woman seemed to be very helpful. She picked up the corners of her thin and sexy mouth and handed the bottle in her hand to Lin Nan and said, "Here, little brother, just take a look if you want."
"Oh, okay." Lin Nan hurriedly recovered, took the bottle handed over by the woman, and observed it carefully.
Generally speaking, if you want to identify the authenticity of a porcelain, you need to judge from more than a dozen aspects at most. For example, you must first observe the appearance of the porcelain. This is the first element of ancient pottery identification. It is a concentrated reflection of porcelain making technology, social customs, cultural cultivation and aesthetics. Different eras have different styles. This is the most important point in judging the authenticity of a porcelain.
Furthermore, it depends on the body quality of the utensils. Because the body quality of the utensils and kilns will be obvious in different eras and different kilns, and this difference is absolutely impossible for any counterfeiter to imitate.
In addition, the identification of the utensils, processing technology, patina methods, etc. are also important basis for identifying porcelain, but these are just a matter of a few glances. Therefore, for a real treasure appraiser, it may often be just a meeting, and the general situation of the thing can be basically determined.
After carefully observing the bottom and glaze color of the hanging bottle, Lin Nan could basically confirm that this was an official kiln clear glaze hanging bottle from the mid-Qing Dynasty, almost in the early Jiaqing period. The official kiln hanging bottles in this era have a lot of existence and average value, but it is not common for this hanging bottle to have a pure glaze color and is so well preserved.
Based on the knowledge in my mind, the value of this thing is probably not less than 100,000 yuan. Lin Nan immediately had an idea in his mind and looked at the stall owner and said, "I want this bottle, 1,000 yuan."
Hearing this, the stall owner who was sleepy with his eyes squinting suddenly became more energetic, but at this moment, the woman's face changed suddenly, and she looked at Lin Nan with great displeasure and said, "Little brother, what do you mean? You won't understand the rules of coming first and then coming."
"Haha..." Lin Nan smiled faintly: "Auntie, what you said is wrong. Although you came first and fell in love with this bottle, it seems that you were just looking at it and there was no deal, so I naturally have the right to bid."
"You..." The woman gritted her teeth and was about to speak, but she didn't expect the thin stall owner to suddenly follow: "That's right, this little brother is right, it's fair competition. I didn't agree to sell it to anyone just now, so naturally everyone has a chance."
"You..." The woman looked at Lin Nan and the stall owner, then became angry. After glaring at Lin Nan, she looked at the stall owner and said, "Since you recognize the money so much, okay, then I will pay two thousand to get this bottle."
"I'll pay two thousand five..." Lin Nan is determined to win and is not willing to be outdone.
"I'll pay three thousand." The woman didn't know whether she knew the value of this bottle or deliberately tried to fight Lin Nan's dodge and refused to give in.
Seeing the price increase from the two of them, the thin stall owner was so happy that he couldn't stop. In his eyes, he thought that the two of them were just to earn face and refused to give in. However, he didn't know that in this transaction, the one who lost the most was actually himself.
"I'll pay 10,000 yuan, and I'll want this bottle!" Seeing that the woman had an endless fight with her, Lin Nan suddenly increased the price suddenly.
"You..." The woman was stunned. 10,000 yuan seemed to have exceeded the bottom line she could bear, so she held the bottle in her hand tightly, and finally handed it back to Lin Nan reluctantly.
"Do you think it's worth buying such a bottle for 10,000 yuan?" The woman gave the thing to Lin Nan, but she didn't forget to make a sarcasm.
"Haha...it's good enough for me." Lin Nan said carelessly: "Collection? Sometimes that's the case." In fact, if he didn't know that this thing was valuable, let alone 10,000 yuan, he wouldn't want it even if he had 10 yuan.
However, since he had no cash on hand, he could not help but have many dreams. Lin Nan directly asked the stall owner and he to transfer money to a nearby bank. The stall owner had just made such a profit and was in a good mood, so he did not refuse. He asked a friend next to him to help him see the stall, and he accompanied Lin Nan to the bank.
After all this, it was almost 5 pm when Lin Nan held the bottle and returned to the main street of Dongguan Street with his bottle in his arms.
At this time, the crowds gradually increased on the street, and Lin Nan carefully carried his bottle, touched it for a while, and finally found a shop called Yidege and walked in.
When he saw someone coming in with a porcelain bottle, a slightly fat old man in his sixties who was about sixty sitting behind the counter stood up and looked at Lin Nan and asked, "Why, little brother, do you want to sell something?"
"Yes." Lin Nan said and handed over the bottle he had just bought: "Look at this, this is passed down from my family."
"Oh, okay, I'll take a look first." The old man said, grabbing the reading glasses next to him, and carefully looked at the bottle that Lin Nan had just received.
After reading it for about two or three minutes, the old man took off his glasses and nodded and said, "Well, the thing is an old thing, but the bottles in the official kiln have never been very valuable, especially the bottles of yours are a little too simple, so I wonder how much do you want to sell, little brother?"
"You'd better say it." Lin Nan sneered in his heart and said calmly.
"Okay, then I'll offer a price. Do you see if it's appropriate?" The old man said, stretching out his two fingers: "What do you think of this price?"
"Is this?" Lin Nan looked at him in confusion, wondering what he was talking about.
"Two thousand." The old man said something lightly that Lin Nan was surprised.
"Two... thousand!" Lin Nan's eyes turned round and his face suddenly turned dark: "I said, "Old guy, do you really think I'm a piece of Baier who doesn't know anything? In the mid-Qing Dynasty, the official kiln's clear glaze hanging bottle, give me two thousand?"
As he spoke, Lin Nan was about to leave with the bottle, but at this moment, the old man quickly turned out of the counter and grabbed Lin Nan's arm and said, "Wait little brother, wait first, let's discuss it."
