Chapter 1317 Flaws(1/2)
"This starts with our family. There is an ancestor in our family who married from the Jia family. She is Jia Baoyu's favorite daughter. When she came to marry, Jia Baoyu handed over the spiritual jade he had with him to his favorite daughter, which is my ancestor..."
The stall owner talked about the origin of this jade.
"Really, fake?"
The story of this old man is very wonderful, and Liu Xixi feels a little bit skeptical when she hears it.
"Of course it's true. I'm so old that I can still tell lies."
The stall owner said immediately.
"Then why are you willing to sell this treasure in the family?"
Liu Xixi asked in confusion.
"This is not because of the decline of family affairs and life force, I took out the treasures left by my ancestors for money."
The stall owner said.
"Don't listen to his nonsense. The stone in your hand is just an ordinary jade, and it's not even considered a jade. This old man lied to you."
The old peddler put down his magnifying glass and said to Ye Rongyao and the others.
"I said, sir, do you have a grudge against me? If you don't hit someone in the face, if you don't expose others, you're destroying my business!"
The stall owner said to the old scholar very angry.
That expression is almost about to hit someone.
"Sorry, I'm talking quickly, I'm talking quickly."
The old scholar said hurriedly.
"Boss, your stone is just an ordinary thing. I think it's good, so you can sell it to me at a cheap price!"
Ye Rongyao said to the stall owner.
"Twenty thousand, if you want it, take it!"
The stall owner thought for a while and said.
This jade was purchased by the stall owner from a farmer's house. At that time, he thought it was a treasure, so he spent 20 yuan to collect it.
I just haven't figured out what this thing is, so I kept putting it on the stall.
Now that someone wants to buy it, the lion naturally needs to speak out.
In the antique industry, there are naturally a lot of prices, and of course customers can also bargain on the spot.
"Buy this broken stone for 20,000 yuan, why don't you grab it?"
Liu Xixi said dissatisfiedly.
“It’s worth the price!”
The stall owner said.
"Then I don't want this stone anymore, sir, how about this bowl?"
Ye Rongyao calmed down the round gem and turned his head to ask the old scholar.
"This bowl is indeed blue and white during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty!"
The old peddler nodded and said to Ye Rongyao.
"I'm right? I'm all genuine products here, there are no fakes, right? If you don't believe me, you always believe this old gentleman. Although this old gentleman always smashes my sign, he told me the truth this time."
As soon as the stall owner heard the old scholar's words, he immediately said to Ye Rongyao.
"Then how much does this blue and white porcelain bowl cost?"
Ye Rongyao asked with a heart-warming look.
"You should also know that the price of blue and white porcelain is very high now, especially the blue and white porcelain of the Ming Dynasty. However, for our destiny, I will sell this blue and white porcelain from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty to you at a cheap price, one million!"
The stall owner Lion said with a big mouth.
"One million is a little higher, up to eight hundred thousand."
The old scholar said remindingly to Ye Rongyao.
"Why are you doing so many things!"
The stall owner looked at the old peddler in dissatisfaction and said depressedly.
"Hand quickly, and quickly!"
The old scholar said apologetically to the stall owner.
"Okay, I'm unlucky. Today I met an expert. If you give 800,000 yuan in the blue and white porcelain of the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, it will belong to you."
The stall owner said to Ye Rongyao with a depressed look on his face.
This blue and white bowl from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty was a imitation. The purchase price was 80 yuan. If you could buy 800,000 yuan, it would be equivalent to earning a thousand times.
This antique business is just like this. It either doesn’t open for a year, but it will take three years to eat it once it opens.
“Too expensive!”
Ye Rongyao shook his head and said.
However, his eyes were still staring at the blue and white porcelain bowl, looking like he liked it very much.
"It's good. Didn't you fall in love with that stone just now? If you buy this blue and white porcelain bowl, this stone will be given to you for free."
The stall owner saw that Ye Rongyao was hesitant and immediately said.
"Didn't you say this is your family heirloom? Why did it be given for nothing?"
Liu Xixi said sarcastically.
If this old man hadn't reminded me, I would have been deceived by the stall owner.
Moreover, the stall owner was shameless enough. He was exposed and even had the nerve to bid 20,000 yuan for the useless stone.
"That's kidding you."
The stall owner said awkwardly.
"Okay, but I want to take a closer look at this blue and white porcelain bowl. I don't want to spend 800,000 to buy a fake product back."
Ye Rongyao said to the stall owner.
"It's okay, you can take a closer look, but with this amazing old man here, it's hard for me to sell the fake to you!"
The stall owner nodded and said.
"Brother-in-law..."
Liu Xixi didn't expect that her brother-in-law was really planning to spend 800,000 yuan to buy such a broken bowl, and she couldn't help but want to persuade her brother-in-law.
"Don't bother me!"
Ye Rongyao said to Liu Xixi and devoted himself to checking the blue and white porcelain bowl.
In a word, Ye Rongyao did not believe that this bowl was real in the blue and white porcelain of the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, because Ye Rongyao held it in his hand and had no reaction in his mind.
After all, if it were the blue and white porcelain during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, due to the "treasure sensing technique", there would be a little reaction in my mind.
There is no reaction at all now. It means that the so-called blue and white porcelain during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty is actually a fake.
Soon Ye Rongyao discovered a flaw.
There is a characteristic in the antique world that every fake master will deliberately leave flaws in his works.
However, the location of this flaw is very hidden, and under normal circumstances, it is impossible to find it at all.
The same is true for the blue and white porcelain bowl in Ye Rongyao's hand. There are also flaws left by the counterfeiter deliberately, but this flaw is very hidden. If Ye Rongyao hadn't used "detection" to enlarge the porcelain bowl in his mind, he wouldn't have found this flaw.
"Old sir, are you sure this is the true blue and white porcelain during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty?"
Ye Rongyao asked the old scholar.
After all, Ye Rongyao didn't understand antiques and was an outsider. If he didn't see the flaws, he could not tell whether the porcelain bowl was really blue and white during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty.
However, for those who have studied blue and white porcelain, it should not be difficult to see that this porcelain bowl is simply a fake for anyone like the old scholar.
Another point makes Ye Rongyao doubt the identity of this old peddler.
It’s just that this old peddler is so enthusiastic!
Suddenly, a stranger appeared so concerned about what he bought, and everyone was a little suspicious.
Logically, people who come to buy antiques at stalls like this come with the intention of finding bargains, and they wish that all good things would be found by themselves, and the things others carry were fakes.
But this old scholar is different. He was worried that Ye Rongyao would buy fakes as soon as he came up. It seemed that Ye Rongyao picked the authentic ones, which made him happier than he picked the authentic ones himself.
This forced Ye Rongyao to be on guard!
You must not have the intention to harm others, but you must be careful of others!
"Yes, according to my experience, this is definitely the blue and white porcelain of the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty."
The old peddler nodded and said affirmatively.
