    The old lady's matter was temporarily resolved in such an unexpected way, and Meng Zitao couldn't help but say, "Everything in the world is impermanent."

    Next, Meng Zitao dealt with the work that had accumulated some time ago, and it took him two full days to finish it.

    On Wednesday, Meng Zitao came to the antique shop, drank tea and chatted with Hu Yuanliang, and tested Zhu Xinyue's learning progress. Overall, he was quite satisfied.

    Meng Zitao was drinking tea when an elegant old man, less than sixty years old, came in from the door.  As soon as the old man came in and saw Meng Zitao there, a smile appeared on his face: "Shopkeeper Meng, you are really like a dragon that has seen the beginning but not the end. I finally met you again in the store."

    Meng Zitao stood up and said hello to the old man, invited him to take a seat, and said with a smile: "I have no choice but to run around in order to support my family. By the way, don't you always travel to the capital of Shu? Why are you like this?  Be back soon."

    "Well, after finding such a treasure, how can I still think about staying in Shudu." The old man put the box he was carrying on the table, opened it and took out the contents.

    When Meng Zitao saw that it was a folding plate with a blue and white dragon pattern and wrapped branches, he said with some surprise: "This folding plate is very similar to the original one."

    The old man said with some pride: "It's just because he looked like me that he dared to do it. You don't know that someone else was interested in it at the time. If I hadn't struck first, I would have missed the baby again."  "

    The old man¡¯s surname is Gongye and his single name is Chen. The acquaintance between him and Meng Zitao originated from an oversight and encounter.

    It is said that Gong Yechen was originally a middle-level cadre of a state-owned enterprise, but he took medical leave due to physical problems.

    Gong Yechen has the kind of temperament that can¡¯t sit still at home. He retired from illness and went to the flower and bird market every day, so he also came into contact with the antique industry.

    There were not many antique shops in the Flower and Bird Market, only a few of them, and they didn't have any good products. So Gong Yechen went to the antique market and was immediately attracted by the colorful porcelain on the market. He bought it himself.  After the first genuine product, it was out of control.

    Even a few years ago, Gong Yechen opened an antique shop because of his interest. However, because he was not a business person, and it was too tiring to collect goods from various places, his body couldn't bear it, and the antique shop ended up being closed.  It's closed, but fortunately there is no loss.

    However, this experience also brought him a lot of gains. Among other things, his eyesight in porcelain has improved a lot, and he has become somewhat famous in the Ling City antique district.

    Things go back to last year. One day at the Sunday market in the antique street, Gong Yechen got up early and went shopping for treasures in the antique street as usual. After shopping for a while, he noticed a piece of blue and white porcelain.

    The owner of this blue and white porcelain is a "guerrilla", and his accent sounds like he comes from a city in the southwest. The blue and white porcelain that Gong Yechen noticed was not known where the stall owner got it.  Of course, Gong Yechen didn't want to care about this, he was already attracted by this blue and white disk.

    The production work of this blue and white plate is very exquisite. The dragon pattern is painted in the middle of the plate, and the lotus pattern is painted around the plate. The overall painting is orderly, complex and delicate, without losing the exquisite style.  The bottom is written with the inscription "Qianlong Year of the Qing Dynasty".

    After Gong Yechen looked at it carefully, he was happy but also a little confused, because the blue and white on this blue and white plate were unstable and blurred out.  There is nothing wrong with this, because the color of blue and white porcelain materials during the Qianlong period did have this characteristic in the early years. Later, it gradually developed a bright blue tone, with stable color and clear decoration.

    In the late period, the color of Qianlong blue and white became slightly gray. From then on, Qing Dynasty porcelain began to deteriorate from generation to generation.

    Although the color of this blue and white plate is in line with the characteristics of the genuine product, it is not easy to get something worth not millions from a stall, so it is normal for Gong Yechen to hesitate.

    In addition, it was cloudy that day and it was morning, so the light was not good, which made it even more difficult for Gong Yechen to judge.

    After hesitating for a moment, Gong Yechen still asked the price, and the stall owner offered a price of 8,000.

    Eight thousand yuan is not much, but it is not much, and it is the morning market. Who would carry that much money?  Although Gong Yechen brought a little more today, he couldn't take out so much at once.

    Since we didn¡¯t have enough money, we had no choice but to give up if we didn¡¯t find a way to borrow it. Gong Yechen felt that the price was too expensive, and he was even more hesitant because he was afraid of buying the wrong thing.

    After that, Gong Yechen bargained with the stall owner, and finally the stall owner refused to let go after killing six thousand.  Do you know why?  In fact, it is because the stall owner is not sure whether this thing is true or false. Of course, what he thinks is true refers to the later official imitation.

    Six thousandThis price was still higher than Gong Yechen's bottom line, so he had to give up in the end.

    At this time, Meng Zitao, who had been waiting for a while, immediately picked up the blue and white plate and struck up a conversation with the stall owner. There is no need to say more about the result.

    In fact, when Gong Yechen was bargaining with Meng Zitao, he had already vaguely regretted it. When he finally learned who Meng Zitao was from his friends, he even felt regretful.

    This blue and white plate was finally sold to a buyer for 1.15 million at Meng Zitao's auction. Gong Yechen was also present at the time and could only use a wry smile to ease his regret.

    In fact, if you miss a certain treasure in the antique world, it boils down to lack of eyesight. As the old saying goes, opportunities always leave to those who are prepared.

    However, it was precisely because of this blue and white plate that Gong Yechen came into contact with Meng Zitao, and he often went to Meng Zitao's antique shop after that.  The two of them talked for a long time, and they became friends every year.

    In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed. Meng Zitao was somewhat surprised when Gong Yechen actually brought over a similar blue and white plate.

    Gong Zhichen smiled and said: "I think I can't be wrong, but I still feel a little unsure. I can only ask you, a great god, to help me take a look."

    "Please don't call me a great god, I can't bear it."

    Meng Zitao waved his hand quickly, and then picked up the green rim plate in front of him. After a quick look, he knew that Gong Yechen had made a mistake this time.

    Seeing that Meng Zitao¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change, Gong Yechen felt something was wrong and couldn¡¯t help but ask: ¡°Shopkeeper Meng, is there something wrong with the stuff?¡±

    "We are old friends, so I will tell you the truth. This blue and white folded plate is indeed good, but judging from its characteristics, it should be a later imitation of porcelain during the Guangxu period."

    Meng Zitao explained: "Guangxu imitation of Qianlong's porcelain is relatively easy to distinguish, because Emperor Qianlong's economy was prosperous and he liked heavy colors, rich colors, and fine brushwork; while Emperor Guangxu's economy was in decline, and the colors would appear lighter, although the fine brushwork was equally delicate.  , but there are already signs of simplification.¡±

    "Of course, the imitation of this thing is still very good and remarkable. I think it is not an exaggeration to call it the ultimate imitation of Qianlong by Guangxu. Whether it is market value or collection value, it is still good. You can keep it for a while.  Take action again.¡±

    After a while, Gong Yechen let out a long sigh: "Hey, there is still a mountain higher than the mountain. I already felt that I was quite careful, but I didn't expect that I still fell into the trap."

    Meng Zitao couldn't help but ask: "You didn't buy it for a million, did you?"

    Gong Yechen shook his head: "Not that much, but it still cost two hundred thousand."

    Meng Zitao said: "Two hundred thousand dollars is a bit expensive, but it's not much different. Sooner or later, you can still get your money back."

    "That's all it can do." Gong Yechen was a little depressed. Fortunately, he didn't buy a fake, otherwise he wouldn't just be depressed.

    Seeing this, Meng Zitao changed the topic and deliberately said some happy things.

    Gong Yechen is a veteran of the world. For him, it is not a common encounter, but he has been able to treat it with a normal mind. After a while, he adjusted his mentality.  Antiques, as long as you don't buy fakes, you can always save your money.

    After chatting for a while, Gong Yechen slapped his forehead: "By the way, when I was in Shudu, I saw some porcelain pieces and bought them because I thought they were interesting. See what you find."

    As he spoke, he took out a piece of porcelain wrapped in paper from his pocket: "This piece of porcelain is one of them. You see, the glaze color, blue and white hair color, and painting workmanship are all characteristics of the genuine article. Even the paste, I  I don¡¯t think there¡¯s anything wrong with it, but this porcelain body is obviously modern, what do you think is going on?¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
