Exploring the Secret: Dig the Mausoleum of the First Emperor at the beginning

Chapter 58 Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup
He looked at Qingfeng Li in confusion.

"You should have asked my senior brother before you came, you wouldn't have come without his nod, right?"

He nodded.

If Professor Zhou didn't let him come, he definitely wouldn't come.

If the conflict between the two is of the kind that cannot be resolved, wouldn't it make it difficult for Professor Zhou to do so.

"Hmph! After so many years, I have known that senior brother is the kind of person who would rather be short than excessive. The reason why he asked you to come here is nothing more than to prove how unique his vision is, and to prove that he is better than me. You come to strike and humiliate me!"

"Grandpa Qingfeng, let me tell you that we shouldn't judge the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!"

"Tch! I know him too well. Otherwise, why haven't you accepted a disciple for so many years? Instead, I chose you and my granddaughter."

"Grandpa Qingfeng, in fact, you are also secretly competing with my master."

"I didn't! The reason why I let Chunxi go is that it's a pity that the Zhou family's treasure-appreciating skills are lost. I know that if there is no suitable candidate, my brother would rather bring these unique skills to the grave. The so-called skills must be passed on." People with virtue should pass on to those with ambition, and even more importantly, to pass on to those who are loyal.”

"I am so ashamed of myself. You said that I am too great. I..."

"It's too early for you to be unhappy. Maybe my senior brother thinks that I haven't been able to find a suitable candidate in the past few years. Choose the big one from the short ones."

Qin Chen knew that Li Qingfeng cared a lot about Professor Zhou.

It can be seen from the words of the senior brother.

Qin Chen also became more and more curious about the contradiction between the two.

What happened that caused the two of them to not interact with each other for decades?

"Grandpa Qingfeng, how about you admit to my master, how old is he, he should probably let it go."

"Who am I to apologize to him? It's his fault. Anyway, I was right!"

"Does it matter who is right and who is wrong?"

"You! I don't understand your master. He has been stubborn to death since he was a child. I also know that it is very difficult for him to bow his head first. But it was not entirely his fault back then. I was also at fault. Forget it, let's not talk about this. .”

"Ok!"

"Wait here for me, I'll get something!"

A few minutes later, Qingfeng Li came up from the basement.

Qin Chen guessed that he should have gone to the treasure room on the second floor.

The old man held the box carefully. The more he did this, the more interested he became in the antiques inside the box.

When Qingfeng Li took it out of the box.

Qin Chen lost his composure for an instant, and didn't know what to say for a while.

"Unexpectedly... it turned out to be a Mingcheng Huacai chicken bowl cup."

In his previous life, Qin Chen only saw pictures of chicken bowl cups on the Internet, but seeing them with his own eyes was quite shocking.

It really deserves to be able to sell as many as 2 million handed down treasures for a single collection!

"Can I pick it up and have a look?"

"sure!"

Qin Chen took the chicken bowl cup in his hand, stroked it as soft and moist as jade, and when he looked closely, it seemed vivid.

The body of the cup is outlined with blue and white flowers and filled with colorful colors, which means that blue and white flowers compete with colored porcelain.

"Test your kid, and tell the truth!"

"Grandpa Qingfeng, do you think it is still necessary to distinguish the authenticity?"

"Why do you think this is authentic?"

"Although it is shown that there are imitations in the Qing Dynasty, there are still flaws to be found. Most of the imitations in the late Ming Dynasty appear to have thick strokes, sparse arrangements, too large circles, and thick but not bright colors on the cup body. Only Yunmeng, The air bubbles are similar to Chenghua kilns, but they are enough to make it look like real ones, while the imitations of the Qing Dynasty have very light clouds, uneven air bubbles, and the cyan color of the characters is also scattered, and the body color is slightly yellow or white. "

"What about the Republic of China?"

"During the period of the Republic of China, the glaze of the imitation product turned blue, the blue and white color floated, the color was light, and the decoration was dull."

"Yeah, yes, if you can't see such an obvious authentic product, I really want to beat you up. It's not you alone, but the entire Zhou family."

"Grandpa Qingfeng, where did this thing come from?"

Qingfeng Li seemed to be lost in memories, and a warm smile appeared on his face.

"This story goes back a long time."

Li Chunxi is also very curious, this Mingcheng Hua Doucai Chicken Cup Grandpa never told her the origin.

"In the 40s, when my master was young, when he was traveling in Dachuan, the motherland, he passed by a farmer's house and saw that the family drank water from this pair of Ming Chenghua fighting color chicken cups. My master spent 100 yuan to make this I bought the cup. But when I bought it back, my master was only a young man in his early twenties. Many people thought that what my master bought was fake and antique. But he was unmoved and always Believe in your own eyesight, for decades, whenever you are interested, you will always use this cup to drink tea for a while! Finally, I found out that the ancestor of the farmer was worshiped by officials in the Ming Dynasty."

"This is what the master gave you?"

"It's the only thought my master left me, back then..."

Li Chunxi asked curiously: "What happened back then?"

"I won't mention the past. Every time I miss my master, I take out this cup and have a look, and I feel that the old man is by my side."

Only then did Qin Chen realize: "You just said a couple!"

"Yup!"

Qingfeng Li continued to take out another one from the box, but there was a crack on it, but it didn't affect its value very much.

"Hey! Old man!"

Qin Chen recalled an interesting story that Professor Zhou told him before. There was a collector who wanted to sell one of his collections because of the lack of capital turnover. He sold a Ming blue and white flower pot with folded branches. 800w.

Then a few days later, he told the buyer that he had found the lid of the jar at home, and bid 1000 million for a single lid.The buyer had no choice but to bite the bullet and buy it.On the one hand, they like it, on the other hand, they need to be matched to make it more valuable.

For example, this single chicken pot cup is worth 2 million, but if you put together a pair, the value may reach 5 million.

Qin Chen knew that, looking at the whole world, Li Qingfeng was the only person who could own two chicken bowl cups in his personal collection.

Although it is stated that there are [-] Chenghua Doucai Chicken Crock Cups, there are only about [-] or [-] genuine ones, and the rest are imitations of previous dynasties. three.

Every auction is the finale of the entire auction.

Therefore, being able to own a chicken bowl cup is not something that can be bought with money, but the combination of the right time, location, and financial resources can only have this rare treasure by chance and coincidence.

At this time, Master has become a god-like figure in his heart!

I bought a pair for 100 yuan!
It is now worth 5 million yuan, which means that its value has doubled by 70 million times in more than 500 years.

Antiques are really too profitable!

"Can you fix this crack?"

Qin Chen looked at the crack on the cup, and saw that its color had traces of nearly a hundred years.

"This cup must have been cracked when Master bought it."

"Yes!"

"Let me look again and give you the answer!"
