The two pottery figurines in Chu Chen's hands are typical blue-glazed lady figurines from the Tang Dynasty. The figure, clothing and size of these two lady figurines are not much different, only the hairstyle is different, one has a double bun, and the other has a lily bun. In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, plumpness was the most important thing for ladies. These two blue-glazed maids from the Tang Dynasty have round faces, dignified bodies, plump and graceful looks, with low-cut cardigans and colorful long skirts. They are gorgeous and bright, with their hands folded and sleeves placed. On the abdomen, the facial expression is soft and delicate, showing the nobility of a lady under the royal etiquette of the palace. The lines of the characters¡¯ clothes are simple and smooth, and the glaze colors flow naturally and blend into each other. The colors are gorgeous, hazy and elegant, both real and illusory, and have a very high level of artistic appreciation. After reading it, Chu Chen put the two lady figurines in his hands on the stall again, and then said with a smile: "Boss, I wonder if you can sell these two pottery figurines?" The stall owner said with a smile on his face: "Sell. Of course it¡¯s sold!¡± ¡°Well, I wonder what the price is?¡± The stall owner glanced at the two pottery figurines, and then said: ¡°Brother, we are familiar with each other, so two pottery figurines cost 6,000 yuan. "How about it?" "Six thousand?" When Chu Chen heard this, he pretended to be surprised and said loudly: "Boss, you think I'm being taken advantage of! These two pottery figurines are so new, they're just two handicrafts. I just think these two pottery figurines are cute and want to give them to my sister. Isn¡¯t the price you offered too unreasonable? Forget it, I don¡¯t want them either!¡± ¡°Brother, don¡¯t leave! Ah! Our price can be easily negotiated" The stall owner suddenly became anxious when he saw Chu Chen was leaving. Just now, he just thought that Chu Chen was a novice and easy to fool, so he tried to offer this price. He didn't expect Chu Chen's Such a big reaction. certainly. The most important thing is that he bought these two pottery figurines for fifty yuan at a country market. He originally planned to give them to his daughter as a birthday gift, but now he can sell them and exchange them for jewelry. Category. It is undoubtedly much stronger than this thing. "It's obviously two handicrafts, and three hundred yuan is about the same!" Chu Chen bargained hard, and the price was reduced to one-twentieth. If you want to buy it for fifty yuan, three hundred yuan is not bad, but of course the stall owner is not willing to let Chu Chen go. He said with a sad face: "I said brother. If you don't let me eat meat, you have to let me eat meat." Want some soup? Don¡¯t let me drink the soup for 300 yuan. If you really want it, I¡¯ll give you an honest price of 800 yuan. Take it if you want it! Tsukuru lowered his head and thought for a while. Then he sighed and said with a heartbroken face: "Hey, forget it, let's just do it like this. If I hadn't been afraid of my sister complaining when I went home, I wouldn't have been taken advantage of!" Seeing that Chu Chen agreed, the stall owner immediately had a pimple on his face. Full of smiles. He quickly took out a brocade box, put the pottery figurines in, handed it to Chu Chen and said: "Brother, these two pottery figurines are so exquisitely made, you really won't suffer." Chu Chen paid the money and took the brocade box. , muttering in his mouth: "I hope so!" The stall owner watched Chu Chen leave and cursed in his heart, "Silly!" However, if he knew the true value of these two pottery figurines, I wonder if he would still do it. He would scold Chu Chen as "foolish" Holding the painted pottery in one hand. Holding the precious Tang blue glazed pottery figurines in one hand, it was a bit inconvenient to go to the antique market, so Chu Chen was ready to go home. However, as he was walking, he suddenly remembered that he had not bought gifts for his family this time in Longxi, and there happened to be an antique shop selling Qinzhou carved lacquer in front of him. So he planned to go in and take a look. Qinzhou lacquer carving craft has a long history and is an outstanding variety among Chinese lacquer carving crafts. It enjoys a high reputation at home and abroad for its strict selection of materials, exquisite craftsmanship, unique shape, simple patterns, hard paint, bright paint surface, acid and alkali resistance, high temperature resistance, and can be both ornamental and practical. Chu Chen walked into this antique shop and saw a dazzling array of various carved lacquer works inside, ranging from walking sticks, tea trays, smoking sets, small round tables, small stools, hanging plates, to large vases, coffee tables, lounge chairs, sofas, ancient style Bookshelves, furniture, dining tables and chairs, etc. are all available. A shopping guide lady in the store suddenly brightened up when she saw Chu Chen coming in. She hurriedly greeted him and said, "Sir, do you want to buy something? Our store has a full range of carved lacquer works, not only modern handicrafts. , if you want antiques, we also have them here." Chu Chen smiled at her and said, "I'll take a look first and come back to you later if I need anything else!" "Okay!" After the shopping guide nodded, he started to browse in the store. However, he just took a few steps and saw the boss Zheng who sold him the Changman cup the day before yesterday. I saw Boss Zheng sitting at a table inside.In front of him, he looked nervously at an old man in his fifties sitting opposite him. The old man was frowning, holding a magnifying glass, and carefully observing a copper-embedded cloisonn¨¦ enamel double-chilled bottle on the table. Seeing this, Chu Chen's curiosity aroused, and he immediately walked over lightly. After a while, the old man put down the magnifying glass in his hand, shook his head gently, and said to Boss Zheng: "I can't tell the truth about this bottle!" The old man's words were undoubtedly a blow to Boss Zheng, and his expression instantly changed. He became extremely pale, and said with a tongue-tied mouth: "Mr. He, youyou said this is a fake?" Generally in the antique shop, sometimes due to the owner's kindness, he will speak more tactfully, as if he can't see clearly. , saying something bad, etc., all mean that something is wrong. "Hey" The old man sighed and was about to say something, but when he saw Chu Chen in front of him, he asked strangely: "Young man, I wonder what brings you here?" Chu Chen chuckled and said: "I saw Boss Zheng here, so I came over to take a look. I'm really sorry for disturbing you two!" Boss Zheng heard what Chu Chen said, turned around, saw that it was Chu Chen, and said in surprise: " Ah! It¡¯s Brother Chu, come on and help me take a look at this thing of mine!¡± As he said this, he stood up and pulled Chu Chen to sit at the table. Chu Chen had something in his hand, so he could only comply with his wishes first, and then said in a dumbfounded voice: "Boss Zheng, don't be so impatient. You must listen to what this old gentleman has to say!" Boss Zheng listens After hearing what Chu Chen said, he remembered that his behavior was very disrespectful to the old man. He looked embarrassed and apologized to the old man: "Old He, I'm sorry! I was dizzy because of the rush. You, sir, have a lot, so don't be surprised! " In the antique shop, the most taboo thing is Boss Zheng's behavior just now. It would be a lie to say that the old man is not angry, but he and Boss Zheng have known each other for a long time, and they know that 60,000 yuan It was not a small amount to him, and it was normal for him to be anxious. So he waved his hand and said, "Xiao Zheng, it's okay. I know you are impatient. Young man, please take a look first!" Upon hearing this, Chu Chen looked at Boss Zheng and asked for his opinion. "Mr. He, why don't you say it first?" After Boss Zheng calmed down a little, he remembered that it was a very unwise behavior to offend the old man, so he tried every means to make up for his mistake. The old man shook his head and said, "Let the young man look at it first. We will talk about it later!" After that, he remained silent. The old man did this not because he was still angry with him, but because he wanted Boss Zheng to remember the lesson he had learned this time. Even though he did not have a deep understanding of copper-tied filigree enamel, he would spend a lot of money to buy such an insignificant piece. It's not something too clever, it's just an inevitable result. Boss Zheng saw the old man¡¯s appearance and could only cry sadly and ask Chu Chen to help him identify it. Chu Chen smiled apologetically at him. If he hadn't come here this time, he wouldn't have been in this situation. This made him feel a little guilty for Boss Zheng, so he decided to do his best to help Boss Zheng. identification. But when he looked at the bottle in front of him, he shook his head secretly. Even Bao Jue didn't react to it, so the result is self-evident! In fact, the cloisonn¨¦ enamel with copper body is the familiar cloisonn¨¦, commonly known as "enamel", also known as "inlaid enamel". It is a famous handicraft in Beijing with a history of more than 600 years. It is a kind of utensil that is made of soft flat copper wire on a copper tire shape, welded into various patterns, and then filled with enamel glaze in the pattern and fired. Because it was popular during the Jingtai period of the Ming Dynasty, the production technology was relatively mature, and the enamel glaze used was mostly blue, so it was named "Cloisonne". The cloisonn¨¦ double-eared vase in front of me has a plate mouth, straight neck, sloping shoulders, rounded ears, round feet and outwards. The neck and abdomen are decorated with copper filigree and wrapped with floral and dragon patterns, and the caliber is decorated with steps and Ruyi clouds. Pattern. The whole thing looks colorful and magnificent, but even without the use of superpowers, Chu Chen knows that this thing is a fake just based on experience. Chu Chen looked around the bottle carefully and finally determined that it was undoubtedly a fake. "How is it?" Boss Zheng asked anxiously when he saw that Chu Chen had finished reading. Although Chu Chen knew that the reality was a bit cruel to Boss Zheng, he still said truthfully: "I can't tell this thing!" Chu Chen's words seemed to push Boss Zheng into the abyss, and his whole person instantly became decadent. got up. Seeing his appearance, the old man couldn't bear it, but he still said: "Xiao Zheng, it is common for us to be criticized in this industry. Failure is not terrible, butThe trouble is that you don¡¯t know where the failure lies. You¡¯d better listen to this young man tell you what¡¯s wrong with this thing first! "The old man's words gave Boss Zheng some energy. Seeing this, Chu Chen quickly said: "Then let's first talk about how cloisonne is imitated. We know that the main material of cloisonne is enamel. Since the 1960s, imitations of cloisonne have appeared. These imitations are mainly imitations of utensils from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. "
