    After everyone had appreciated it one by one, Fu Lilei couldn't wait to ask: "Everyone, is this big bowl with the baby's play pattern an old one?" Chu Chen and others nodded, indicating that it was indeed the case, which made Fu Lilei grow up.  I breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it was genuine, it would be worth some money.  At this time, Yuan Hongjian said angrily: "I don't know if people who make antiques understand the value of antiques. A large, exquisite moon-white glazed baby bowl with patterns like this is not cheap even if it is not distressed."  Where to go, now, the added value is not that high, and it has caused damage to the things, it is really hateful!¡± Everyone nodded in agreement. Although the old-fashioned method is very good, the ox hair pattern on the surface of the antique is not good.  The coating and patina are made using both physical and chemical methods. This will definitely affect the item to some extent, and it will undoubtedly affect the value of the item.  Chen Dewang said with great regret: "Speaking of which, such large bowls with moon-white glaze and baby drama patterns from the Jin Dynasty are indeed relatively rare. Although they are stamped with stencils, the patterns are extremely clear. If they are aged like this, at least one-third of them will be affected.  The price of the Yaozhou kiln moon white glazed porcelain in the Jin Dynasty actually sprouted in the late Northern Song Dynasty and matured in the Jin Dynasty. Judging from the current archaeological excavation results, it was only fired in the central kiln that represented the highest level of Yaozhou kiln, and was not fired in other places.  No burning seen.  The first-fired Yuebai glaze in the late Northern Song Dynasty was green and white in color. By the Jin Dynasty, the blue color of this glaze was greatly weakened, while the whiteness was significantly enhanced.  Its high-quality products are often bluish-white, with a hint of cyan in the white.  What this bowl shows is the glaze color characteristics of the top products of the Jin Dynasty.  Therefore, everyone feels it is a pity.  Fu Lilei heard that this would affect one-third of the value.  Somewhat unbelievable: "Can it affect so much?" Zhao Xueyi said: "That's for sure, Boss Fu. It's not like you don't know whether the things in our line of business are valuable. One factor is very important, that is, things should be natural and not  If it has been artificially processed, the value of the thing will definitely be greatly reduced. I think Lao Chen said one-third is less!" Fu Lilei asked again: "Then what is the market value of this thing if it is not old?  "How much is it?" "Almost thirty thousand." He lost ten thousand for nothing, and he still had to lose at least that much, which made Fu Lilei, who was short of money, feel extremely sad.  It¡¯s been half an hour.  Fu Lilei asked cautiously: "Mr. Chen, do you still want this thing?" Chen Dewang smiled and said: "Since the thing is real, I can get it." "What's the price?" "Let's think it's twenty-five thousand.  ." "Huh?" Fu Lilei was quite surprised when he heard the price.  In fact, let alone Fu Lilei, everyone else was also surprised at the price given by Chen Dewang. Could it be that he saw that Fu Lilei was in trouble and was ready to help him?  Chen Dewang said with a smile: "Xiao Fu, don't be surprised. I offer this price with conditions." Fu Lilei came back to his senses and immediately understood what Chen Dewang wanted. He hesitated for a while, then said with a wry smile: "Okay  "I'll transfer that thing to you." Chen Dewang was very happy when he agreed, and said, "Xiao Fu, don't blame me for taking advantage of you. I've been coveting this thing for a long time, if you don't want to."  I'm also willing to spend 20,000 to buy it." Fu Lilei shook his head: "Mr. Chen, I'm in debt now. That thing will have to be transferred sooner or later. I might as well transfer it to you now. I'm sure you won't treat me badly.  "Seeing the cunning look in Fu Lilei's eyes, Chen Dewang said with a smile: "Okay, the price will definitely satisfy you then, so you can rest assured." "Thank you very much, I'll go now.  Take" After saying that, Fu Lilei quickly walked into the back room with a smile on his face.  When Fu Lilei left, his wife served tea to everyone, and then Zhao Xueyi joked: "I'm talking about Lao Chen, why are you returning the things you buy now?" Chen Dewang laughed and said: "This is what I thought before.  There seems to be something wrong with this thing, so I didn't pay for it. What does it have to do with returning it? Do you still think that I can't go back if I live longer? " "It's impossible for others, but you" Zhao Xueyi laughed meaningfully.  Chen Dewang shook his head and said with a smile: "Isn't it just that I returned something to you the year before last, and you are still grudges about it! Besides, it's not my fault for that. You told me in advance that the thing was real. If it's not right, then I  There¡¯s nothing to say about returning the goods, right?¡± Zhao Xueyi said: ¡°That¡¯s what you say, but you are really unreasonable. It took almost half a year to return the items, which took me a long time to explain to the seller. In the end,  I paid a tuition fee before returning the goods, you old guy is fine, ?At that time, I didn't help or say anything, but now I'm still making sarcastic remarks. I'm really not a good friend!  " Chen Dewang was also a little embarrassed when he heard this. He smiled and said: "Isn't there something happened at that time?  "    "snort!  "Zhao Xueyi snorted: "Who knows if anything will happen to you? No, you have to give me some compensation. After a while, the things will be brought, and we have to compete fairly!  " Chen Dewang suddenly said: "Okay, I was just wondering what your evil intentions were!  Let me tell you, there's no way to do this!  " Zhao Xueyi said with a smile: "Don't worry, good things come to those who see them!  " Chen Dewang refused: "There is no need to discuss this matter. I have been coveting this thing for a long time, but Xiaofu has never sold it, and there is nothing I can do.  I finally got a chance this time, please don¡¯t make trouble for me!  At worst, I'll give you a jade pendant from the Qianlong period that I collected. That's okay, right?  " "Okay, you can't go back on this!  "Zhao Xueyi accepted the good news and immediately agreed. Then he asked curiously: "Old Chen, what is this good thing that makes you miss it so much?  " "When Xiao Fu comes over, you will know after seeing it.  " As soon as Chen Dewang finished speaking, Fu Lilei came back carefully holding three boxes. After carefully placing the boxes on the table, Fu Lilei opened one of the boxes and said, "Mr. Chen, this is the Southern Song Dynasty Longquan.  Kiln plum green glaze folded rim plate.  " When Chen Dewang heard this, he couldn't wait to take the thing into his hands and appreciate it. He saw this plate, which is simple in shape and glazed with plum green glaze. The glaze surface is smooth and round, the glaze water is moist, and the carcass is strong. The center of the plate is simply painted with a double fish pattern in red glaze.  , the decoration is exquisite and rare. Plum green glaze is a variety created by Longquan kiln in the Southern Song Dynasty. The glaze color is rich and green, like the color of green plum, so it is known as "celadon glaze".  "The pinnacle of beauty of texture". Its glaze layer is thick and transparent, the glaze is moist and green, and the color is comparable to jade. There are very few plum green varieties in the world, and most of them are quaint products imitating the shapes of ancient bronzes and jade, which is very beautiful.  Precious. Except for Fu Lilei, everyone here is very fond of porcelain. Seeing such a famous Longquan kiln product, their eyes were attracted, especially Yuan Hongjian, who had not been in contact with antiques for a long time. When he saw such a precious type of porcelain, his eyes were opened.  Everyone wanted to take a look, but Chen Dewang actually took out a magnifying glass to observe a little bit, which made them a little anxious. Seeing this, Fu Lilei felt somewhat proud and said quickly: "I also brought two more.  Bamboo root carving, I wonder if you are interested?  " As he spoke, he opened the other two boxes, which contained a bamboo-root sculpture of a lying cow and a bamboo-root sculpture of a crab. Both were carved lifelike, which immediately attracted the attention of Chu Chen and others.  Of course, their eyes were also interested. After saying hello, they picked up the things and looked at them. Bamboo root carving is a branch of the bamboo carving family. It is carved and processed from bamboo roots that grow under the mud.  Handmade artworks with unique and natural production techniques and simple and elegant aesthetic characteristics are more favored by literati and officials. They are often given as high-end gifts for people to enjoy. According to historical data analysis, the art of bamboo root carving first appeared in the Southern Qi Dynasty.  There is a record of Qi Gaozu giving bamboo Ruyi to Ming monk Shao. However, the real prosperity of bamboo root carvings was in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, and reached its peak in the mid-Qing Dynasty. The two bamboo root carvings produced by Fu Lilei are both from the mid-Qing Dynasty.  The carving skills displayed are very exquisite. Among them, the crab is a sketch. The crab seems to be transformed directly from the bamboo root. Its claws are about to move, the crab's eyes are round and shining, and its eight-clawed toes are pointed.  , exposed one by one, the carving is extremely vivid and realistic, and it looks like a female hairy crab. Bamboo root round carvings are often seen in the Qing Dynasty. Bamboo root carvings with crabs as the theme are also occasionally handed down, but most of them show the static form of crabs.  The crab's body may be lined with rice, straw or other materials. It is rare to see such a crab-like claws stretched out and its claws dancing. Moreover, the craftsmanship of this crab is extremely complex, and its eyes are inlaid with hardwood, making it particularly convex.  God, with eight legs running wildly, the natural bamboo roots must not be able to match its shape, so they are all pieced together to form it. This shows that the author's ingenuity and miraculous skills can be passed down to this day, which is extremely precious. Seeing Chu Chen holding a crab, the look on his face.  With a look of admiration on his face, Fu Lilei smiled and said, "Teacher Chu, this crab is actually a lidded box.  " "Lid box?  "Chu Chen was slightly surprised when he heard this. After taking a closer look, he understood what was going on. It turned out that the crab's body was tightly connected with the mother's mouth. When the crab shell was opened, you could see the inside of the box. After the lid was closed,  There are no seams at all, which shows the craftsmanship. Chu Chen smiled and said: "Boss Fu, this crab carved from bamboo roots is really good, but it's a pity that it's a little small.  ¡±  As Chu Chen said, the length of this crab is only about twelve centimeters. Although the value of antiques cannot be judged by their size, being too small will undoubtedly affect their value.  Fu Lilei said with a smile: "Small is a little small, but if it is a few centimeters larger, maybe this thing will not fall into my hands." Chu Chen smiled and nodded. Even though it is only a few centimeters larger, it is worth it.  But it should be at least a third higher, maybe more.  Another sculpture with bamboo roots is a lying cow, with its neck stretched forward and its pupils turned up.  The style is realistic and the characterization is exquisite.  Although it is a portrait of an animal, the artistic conception is far-reaching.  Unfortunately, this object is damaged and its value is far inferior to that of a crab.  (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
