Chapter 574

"Chuchen also said with a smile:" you started the upper route

"There's nothing I can do about it. Uncle Wang knows my family's conditions. He's not at ease. I have to flatter him anyway." Liu Sizhe said helplessly.

Chuchen shook his head with a smile, then turned his attention to his hand.

The taibaizun that Liu Sizhe likes is also a typical style, which is different from the traditional porcelain, but it is made of cloisonne, which is very rare. It was because it was Cloisonne that Liu Sizhe was not familiar with, so he asked Chu Chen to help.

The copper body of the vessel is gilded, and the outer wall is decorated with Babao Tuolian pattern by wire pinching enamel technology. The pattern is rich and auspicious, and the color is bright and exquisite.

After careful observation, Chu Chen found that, in terms of its production technology and characteristics, it should be a work of the Qing court, but it should have been made in the late middle and late period. Because of the national strength, the overall level is not as good as that of the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty, but on the whole, it is still a very good object.

Chuchen gave Liu Sizhe a look in the dark, and then said: "this thing is so careless. If it's expensive, don't buy it."

Because he had a tacit understanding with Chu Chen, Liu Sizhe immediately understood that this thing is genuine and should not be of high value. With the number in his heart, he asked the stall owner, "boss, how can I sell this thing?"

The stall owner also heard what Chu Chen said, but in business, it's impossible for the customers to say that it's not worth money, and he also reduced the price, so he said with a smile: "little brother, you have a good eye, this thing..."

Liu Sizhe interrupted the stall owner and said, "stop, stop! Don't tell me the story. Give me a real price! "

The stall owner said with a smile: "it seems that the little brother is also a person in the trade. I'll give you this number!"

Said, he slowly stretched out three fingers.

"Thirty?" Liu Sizhe said in a daze.

"I said 30000!" The stall owner said, "this is taibaizun made by the palace of Qing Dynasty. How can it be worth only 30?"

Chuchen said with a light smile: "boss, this taibaizun has a thin body, bright colors, floating feeling and rough workmanship. It is obviously a work of the Republic of China. How could it be made by the palace in the Qing Dynasty? I don't think a thousand is enough. How can there be such an outrageous price of 30000? "

"That's right. I think 800 yuan is about the same." Liu Sizhe took the words.

Originally, the stall owner was not sure about the age of taibaizun. Chu Chen said that his confidence was not enough. However, 800 was still not in line with his expectations, so he shook his head and said: "800 is impossible, at least 3000..."

Next, Liu Sizhe and the stall owner worked hard and soft. When it came to the 1500's, the stall owner was sure of the price and did not waver at all.

Liu Sizhe was quite satisfied with the price. Seeing Chu Chen nodding, he agreed.

When the stall owner took the money and wrapped it up and handed it to Liu Sizhe, Chu Chen pointed to a Buddha statue on the stall and asked, "boss, can you give me a price for that Guanyin statue of blue Wenshi?"

Hearing this, the stall owner turned his eyes and said with a smile, "little brother, this is not a blue Wenshi, but a lapis lazuli."

Chuchen sniffed and said: "return the lapis lazuli? If it's really lapis lazuli, what are you doing here? Just go to the auction. Since you think it's lapis lazuli, I don't want it

With that, he put on a pose to go.

The stall owner quickly said with a smile: "little brother, don't go, I haven't made an offer yet!"

Chu Chen slightly frowned and asked, "how much is it? I'll tell you, if the price goes too far, I'll leave right away. "

"Three thousand!" The stall owner also extended three fingers, but the price offered was ten times less than just now.

"Three thousand? I think three hundred is about the same! " Chuchen turned his lips.

The stall owner said with exaggerated expression: "little brother, what you said is that although the lanwenshi is not really a valuable mineral, it is also a specialty only in Afghanistan. How can you buy 300 yuan for such a large piece? If you really want it, I can make you three hundred. "

Chu Chen shook his head and said, "this Wenlan stone is not a precious mineral. Although this Wenlan stone is big, it's still too expensive. I'll give you twelve at most!"

"No, at least three thousand five..."

It took the two of them five or six minutes to bargain for 2350 yuan.

After Chu Chen left with his things, the stall owner thought triumphantly, "young people's money is easy to earn. It's obviously blue Fangshi, but it's also called blue Wenshi. If it's really blue Wenshi, I'll sell it to you?..."

Just when the stall owner was in a happy mood, Duan Kun said with a speechless face: "I say you two are too gentle. It's just a matter of hundreds and thousands of yuan. Is it necessary to have a long-term relationship with that guy?"

Liu Sizhe looked at him contemptuously: "to explain to you as a layman is to talk about the piano to the cow."

"Why do you talk about the piano to the cow?" Duan Kun said somewhat unconvinced.Liu Sizhe sniffed and said, "where can I buy antiques without paying back? Just like my taibaizun, can I buy it if I ask for 30000 yuan? I'm not a mallet. There's no place to spend more money. Besides, if I really don't pay back the money, the other party thinks it's a good thing, and it's likely that the price will rise. "

"No! Will the price rise? " Duan Kun thinks it's incredible.

"There are so many strange things in the field of antiques, let alone the price increase after a good negotiation. There are so many things like fairy dance that you may lose money if you are not careful. Young man, don't be a big spender when you buy antiques. Be careful to count the money for someone who sells them! " Liu Sizhe clapped Duan Kun on the shoulder.

Duan Kun waved and said, "cut! When I buy antiques, of course, I go to an acquaintance's shop to buy them, but unlike you, I still hang around on the stall. "

Liu Sizhe said with a smile, "so you are a layman. If you only go to an antique shop, how many leaks can you find."

Duan Kun curled his lips: "it's true that we can pick up leaks in stalls, but how can we often encounter such things? And there are a lot of fakes on the stall. Don't pick up the fakes at that time, instead of picking them up

Liu Sizhe said with a smile: "that's for you, a layman. Let's say brother Chen, we must have found something missing just now."

Duan Kun smell speech some unimaginable ask a way: "Chen elder brother, you just picked up a leak?"

Chuchen ha ha a smile, modest way: "is to pick up a small leak."

Duan Kun said excitedly: "Xiaolou is also a leak. I've been in touch with antiques for so long, but I haven't met the problem of picking up a leak yet..."

"Wait!"

Liu Sizhe interrupted: "I remember you said that you only knew Zhenzhen for a month, so you should not have been in touch with antiques for a month. In this way, you can also say that you have been in touch with antiques for a long time?"

Duan Kun was a little embarrassed and gave a ha ha: "let's listen to brother Chen talk about what he picked up!"

Chuchen shook his head with a smile, and then said: "in fact, it's nothing. It's the material of this Avalokitesvara. It's really lapis lazuli."

"What? It's really lapis lazuli. " Liu Sizhe looked surprised, and then said: "yes, if it's not lapis lazuli, you must be lazy."

"You boy, don't talk about me like I'm rich, OK?" Chuchen said with a smile.

"You are a local tyrant!" Liu Sizhe laughs.

"Well, can you explain what lapis lazuli is?" Duan Kun raised his hand and asked.

Liu Sizhe said: "lapis lazuli is a kind of rare gem. The main color of this gem is blue. In ancient China, it was known as Yulin, Jinjing, Jinyu, Qingdai, etc. Buddhism is called venuli or Bi Liuli. "

"Lapis lazuli is very popular among people in the East for its bright blue. The value of gold is equivalent to that of gold and bronze in thousands of years B.C. In Guyin, Du, Yi, Lang and other countries, lapis lazuli, turquoise and coral are all precious jade varieties. In Gusi La and Gulo Ma, wearing lapis lazuli is considered a sign of wealth. "

"Shiya" says: "the color of lapis lazuli is like the sky, or the gold flakes are scattered, brilliant, if the stars are beautiful in the sky.". So in ancient China, lapis lazuli was usually used as a symbol of heaven's dignity. Because of this, lapis lazuli was very popular with ancient emperors and was often buried in tombs. "

Duan Kun nodded and said, "I understand the lapis lazuli, but how much is it worth?"

Liu Sizhe said: "this can not be generalized. How much it is worth depends on the quality of lapis lazuli and the level of carving technology. The quality of lapis lazuli is that the color is even without cracks, the texture is fine without Venus, followed by no white sprinkling gold. Sprinkling gold means that Venus is evenly distributed. If the content of pyrite is low, there will be no Venus on the surface and the quality will not be affected. "

"But if the color of Venus turns black or dark, or if there is too much calcite on the surface to form a large area of white spots, the value will be greatly reduced. I didn't look at brother Chen's Guanyin statue carefully. I don't know about the quality and workmanship. "

When Liu Sizhe finished speaking, they both looked at Chu Chen.

Chuchen said with a smile, "the lapis lazuli used in this statue is not bad. Although it can not reach the top quality, there are not many Venus on the surface. As for the craft, it should be made by Emperor Qianlong."

Liu Sizhe was stunned and said: "brother Chen, you are so unkind, such a good thing, you actually said you only picked up a small leak?"

Duan Kun was a little surprised and asked, "is that Avalokitesvara worth more than 100000?"

"What a hundred thousand!" Liu Sizhe sniffed and said: "at least it should be worth millions!"

"This So expensive? " Duan Kun opened his mouth and his face was incredible.

"Isn't it true?"

Liu Sizhe said triumphantly: "speaking of it, brother Chen often picks up millions of things. For brother Chen, it's really a small leak!"

I don't know. I thought he was the one who picked up the leak
