    Chu Chen was undoubtedly in a very nervous mood at this time. In fact, according to his intention, when Yu Guangjie raised the price to 3.9 million, it was enough. However, Zhao Qirui wanted to avenge the afternoon, so he still offered 400.  Three hundred thousand.  What he is worried about now is, what if Yu Guangjie doesn¡¯t answer?  If he doesn't accept it, the loss will be huge. The money is a small matter, but it will be a bit difficult to live up to in terms of face. Moreover, this matter was also his idea, so he must take some responsibility.  Yu Guangjie originally wanted to forget it, but when he saw Zhao Qirui's half-smiling look, his heart suddenly became angry.  He actually hated Zhao Qirui very much in his heart. His parents were about to arrange a marriage for him, but they were ruined by Zhao Qirui. Whenever he thought of that beauty leaving him, his heart always ached. This  Let him always be worried about it.  "But Yu Guangjie didn't dare to do anything to Zhao Qirui. Who said Zhao Qirui was strong and had a much bigger background than him?  However, at this afternoon's auction, Zhao Qirui accidentally set one up for him. The feeling made him feel that it was so wonderful.  "This gentleman bids 4.3 million. Is there anyone else who bids? If not, then" "Wait a minute, I'll pay 4.4 million!" Yu Guangjie still felt that he gave in at this critical moment and lost it.  Face, but he was still very conflicted in his heart. He wanted Zhao Qirui to continue to quote, so that he would not lose the ability to bid for a while, but he also wanted to be able to buy the painting, which would also be a show off capital for Zhao Qirui.  In fact, Zhao Qirui originally wanted to increase the price, but this is an antique black market after all. If it was a formal auction, he really wanted to have a good time.  The auctioneer asked a few questions according to the rules and quickly announced the deal.  Seeing this, Chu Chen also breathed a sigh of relief. Only now did he realize that there were some beads of sweat on his forehead.  "Bosses, please pay attention. The things below are quite important. I hope you don't miss them." The auctioneer reminded with a smile on his face.  With these words, the interest of the buyers at the scene immediately rose again. Just now it was a work by Shen Zhou, what treasures are on display now?  The things this time should be a pair. I saw two hostesses. One of them walked to the stage with an elegant posture, holding a brocade box. They placed the brocade box on the table, then they both opened it, and they carefully put the contents inside.  He took it out and placed it on the table. A pair of exquisite and unusually flower-patterned bowls were displayed in front of everyone's eyes.  "A pair of enamel flower-patterned bowls from the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty!" Zhao Qirui looked at the pictures projected on the wall, his mind seemed to be attracted, and murmured: "What a good thing, this time it must be authentic!" "Indeed.  It's a good thing. I think this pair of enamels should be real things now. It's impossible for the organizer to always bring the wrong thing, especially something with such an expensive price." Chu Chen said with a smile.  Zhao Qirui also smiled slightly and said: "They are really not sure, but I still hope they are genuine. If they are genuine, I will definitely take them down. I will leave it to you, Xiao Chu." Chu Chen clicked.  He nodded and walked to the stage.  The first thing Chu Chen looked at was the designation. He saw that the pair of bowls were made of blue material with a double frame and "Made in the Yongzheng Year". The font was imitated Song Dynasty. From the way and method of writing, it can be seen that this pair of bowls, at least from  In this respect, it should be a work of this period.  Chu Chen took the time to observe other features. Both bowls had open mouths, curved bellies, and rounded feet.  The inside of the vessel is smooth, the feet are rounded, the shape is regular, the texture is fine and the body is well-proportioned.  The inside and bottom of the vessel are glazed with transparent glaze. The glaze is moist and even, with a slight flash of green in the white.  The body glaze also conforms to the characteristics of the Yongzheng period.  The outer wall of the bowl is painted with enamel.  One side is painted with roses, osmanthus, poppies, chrysanthemums, crabapples and other blooming flowers. The flowers are bright and eye-catching, the branches and leaves are green and delicate, the trees are coiled vigorously, the stones are exquisite and clear, the patterns are exquisitely painted, and the lines are natural and smooth.  The other side is inscribed with a five-character poem in ink and ink, and is engraved with three Zhu Wenxian chapters in seal script. The five-character poems and Xian chapters on the two bowls are also different.  Because this pair of enamel bowls were painted using fine brushstrokes, although the subject matter is the same, there are still some subtle differences. Of course, it can also be seen from the brushwork that the pair of bowls should have been painted by the same painter.  From the characteristics of color materials, painting skills, and decoration, Chu Chen can conclude that this pair of enamel flower bowls is indeed a work of the Yongzheng period.  However, the pair of bowls were of relatively high value after all, so he still used the superpower, and the superpower also confirmed his judgment.  Enamel was created in the later years of Kangxi and flourished during the reigns of Yongzheng and Qianlong.  During the Yongzheng period, enamel painting was relatively mature, with breakthroughs in technology and richer color materials. Most of the enamel painting was painted on white ground.The flower pattern on the belly of the bowl draws on the style of calligraphy and painting of the Song Dynasty, which is realistic and vivid, and is very different from the large-branch and large-leaf pattern-shaped flowers on Kangxi enamel vessels.  And this pair of bowls is the famous Yongzheng enamel-colored porcelain that integrates poetry, calligraphy, and painting. Even if they are counted individually, they are much more precious than the enamel-colored bowls from the Qianlong period that Chu Chen got.  Seeing such a beautiful enamel bowl, Chu Chen of course wanted to take a closer look, but the auctioneer next to him politely reminded: "Boss, the time has come." Chu Chen frowned. There is one bad thing about this antique black market, that is, every time  The time for personal identification is too short, only three minutes, but this is not only to save time, but also the bigger reason is that if there is less time, it will definitely not be able to do better identification, so the organizer will be able to fish in troubled waters.  Like the work by Shen Zhou just now, although Qian Changxing's character is not good, his eyesight is still very good according to Uncle Wu and others. If it weren't for the lack of time, he would be able to discover some of the problems.  "How was it?" After Chu Chen returned to his seat, Zhao Qirui couldn't wait to ask.  "They are all genuine and in good condition." When Zhao Qirui heard this, he suddenly said excitedly: "That's good, we finally have a real harvest today." It was almost time, and the auctioneer on the stage said: "Everyone  Boss, due to some special reasons, the starting price for this pair of bowls is one million. Please start bidding now!¡± Although the starting price of one million caused some uproar, it does not affect the fans.  , and in terms of quality, one million would not be enough for the real thing.  "One million!" As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, someone shouted the price.  "One and a half million!" A fat man who looked wealthy added five hundred thousand directly.  As soon as this price came out, there was a bit of silence on the scene. After all, the appraisal time was too short, and it was really hard to say whether it was authentic or not. If it was true, then of course the price would definitely be a profit, but what if it was fake?  "Brother Zhao, don't you want to make an offer?" Chu Chen asked a little strangely. Just now, he saw that Zhao Qirui clearly liked this pair of bowls. Why did he change his mind after a while?  Zhao Qirui smiled and said: "Xiao Chu, the most important thing is to avoid being impatient when bidding at an auction. Moreover, if there are too many bidders, it is easy to raise the price too high. And if the price does not reach a certain point, it will be a waste of time." Chu Chen  After hearing the words, he nodded. It does make sense to say that. When there are many people and the atmosphere is high, it is often easy for people to lose their composure.  The price of 1.5 million made many people retreat. Afterwards, including the fat man, only four of them were bidding, and the price increase was not high, only 50,000. When the fat man's quotation reached 100,000,  When it reached 900,000, the scene suddenly became deserted.  "One million, nine hundred and one million!" Zhao Qirui began to exert his strength.  This price made Fatty a little confused. Although it was only an increase of 10,000, it also made him wake up from the excitement just now.  After all, the palm-eye master he brought was not 100% sure of the authenticity of the pair of bowls. There was still a risk involved, and it was actually quite large.  However, he was not so willing to give up the bidding, so he quoted another price: "1.95 million!" "1.96 million!" At this time, if you really want to  When you take a photo of the bowl, you must not raise the price too high. This will greatly increase the possibility that others will think it is genuine, which will be self-defeating. Therefore, the best way is to grind it out patiently.  Sure enough, the fat man couldn't hold it any longer. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He gritted his teeth and said, "One hundred and ninety-seven million!"  With a patient look, he said leisurely: "One hundred and ninety-eight thousand!" This price made the fat man defeated. He also knew in his heart that if his condition continued like this, he would not be able to withstand it, so he might as well give up his weapon as soon as possible.  surrender.  After Zhao Qirui got the pair of enamel flower bowls, he immediately took them out and looked at them carefully. Although the light was a little dim, he still looked at them with great interest and said happily: "This trip is a complete success." Next, Chu  Chen originally thought there would be something good, but he didn't expect it to be a bamboo-carved pen holder. It was also the penultimate item in this auction, which was really disappointing.  But think about it, it¡¯s your first time to come to the black market and you can¡¯t just buy everything, and the last one is definitely not that bad.  In this case, let's go up and take a look at this pen holder. If it's good, buy it as a souvenir on the black market.  So he said hello to Zhao Qirui and came to the stage.   This pen holder looks pretty good. The mouth and base are made of wood. The whole body is made of deep-sinking techniques. The knife skills also have certain skills. Judging from the patina and other characteristics, this should be a late-night piece.  Works from the Qing Dynasty are worth about two to three thousand.  But as he looked at it, Chu Chen suddenly discovered a detail, which made him immediately have a guess. Unfortunately, the power had been used up and could not be verified. However, the price of this thing should not be high anyway, so buy it first.
