Traveling across the heavens starting from the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 8 is from last week, not from the Tang Dynasty.

"Boss, is there anything wrong with this Tang Dynasty white porcelain basin?"

Li Huaian saw the inexplicable look from the owner of the antique shop, which made him suspicious.

"Are you sure you're not making short videos?"

"Aren't you here to entertain me?"

The middle-aged male owner of Sheng Wenxuan Antique Shop asked rhetorically. The porcelain on the table made him think that the young man in front of him was an Internet celebrity who wanted to make short videos.

"Not really."

Li Huaian promised again and again.

The owner of the antique shop looked at Li Huaian, looked at the porcelain on the table, and asked: "Then you take a porcelain from last week and bring it to me as a porcelain from the Tang Dynasty. What's going on?"

"Last week?"

Li Huaian pointed to the Tang Dynasty white porcelain basin on the table and said, "This is really a piece of Tang Dynasty porcelain. I can guarantee it. How could it be from last week."

The porcelain on the table is real or fake.

Others do not know.

Does he still know which dynasty it is from?

After all, this piece of porcelain was brought back from the Tang Dynasty world by himself. It is truly white porcelain from Hebei Xing Kiln in the Tang Dynasty, and there is no possible adulteration in it.

How could it be the porcelain from last week that the antique shop owner said.

Could it be.

This antique shop owner wants to hoodwink him?

I want to buy his Tang Dynasty white porcelain water bowl at a low price, and then sell it at a high price later.

This kind of thing.

Some people have also said it on the Internet, and there have been many cases circulated.

I remember that an expert once did this. An old man went to an expert to appraise a calligraphy and painting. The expert first said that the calligraphy and painting were fake. After the old man left, he asked someone to go to the old man's house and collect the calligraphy and painting for tens of thousands of yuan. Then, the expert turned around and sent the calligraphy and painting to the Xiangjiang auction, where it sold for 8000 million.

thought here.

Li Huaian secretly suppressed the doubts in his heart.

"Then boss, why do you think this is the modern porcelain from last week and not the white porcelain from the Tang Dynasty?"

Although there are many confusions in my heart.

But he still planned to ask the boss why he thought his white porcelain basin from the Tang Dynasty was fake, not real, and not from the Tang Dynasty.

Especially since the other party only glanced at it.

Seeing that Li Huaian didn't believe it, the owner of the antique shop folded the beads in his hand.

"Then let me ask you, if your porcelain comes from the Tang Dynasty, how did you get it? Is it passed down from ancestors or collected from others? Even if you dug it out from a corner yourself, as long as you Just tell me where it comes from and I'll tell you."

"Heirlooms, passed down from older generations."

Li Huaian did not hesitate and told the origin of the porcelain.

This is what he said in advance on the way here. He has watched many treasure appraisal programs. Every time someone takes something for appraisal on the show, the expert will ask about the origin of the item being appraised.

This is a must-have for treasure identification videos you see on your mobile phone.

Therefore, he thought of this ancestral saying based on his age.

"Ancestral?"

The owner of the antique shop smiled, pointed to the white porcelain basin on the table and said: "Okay, whether it is passed down from ancestors, collected, or dug up, I will consider your porcelain to be passed down from ancestors."

"Little brother, let me ask you, have you ever studied history."

"I've learned it." Li Huaian wondered whether he had studied history or not, and whether he had a white porcelain basin from the Tang Dynasty that was passed down from his ancestors.

"Since you have learned it, let me ask you, the Tang Dynasty was more than 1000 years ago. To be precise, it was more than 100 years ago."

The antique shop owner picked up the white porcelain basin on the table.

"How did your ancestors protect a white porcelain basin from the Tang Dynasty so well? It can last for more than 1000 years without any bumps or scratches. It's as brand new as if it just came out of the kiln."

"Is it possible that this piece of porcelain has not changed hands once in these more than 1000 years and has been collected by your ancestors?"

talking.

The antique shop owner looked at the bottom of the white porcelain basin in his hand.

"There is no mark on the bottom of this piece of porcelain, not even the word "Ying". It is definitely not porcelain from the imperial palace of the Tang Dynasty. Although it looks very exquisite, it can only be said that it was a kind of porcelain used in daily life in the Tang Dynasty. "

"This kind of porcelain has a history of more than 1000 years. Who would value it so much in the first 100 years after the end of the Tang Dynasty?"

Done.

The owner of the antique shop put the white porcelain basin back on the table and educated him: "Little brother, you want to make money when you are young. I understand. When I was young, I was like this too. I dreamed of getting rich overnight and filling the club with money." Stuck or something.”

"When I get to my age, I know that no matter what I do, I have to do it step by step and there is no need to rush."

"First of all, you have to learn. Only after you learn it can you make money."

Perhaps it was the antique shop owner who recalled the glorious past that aroused his desire to chat.

"Given the quality and selling quality of your porcelain, if you had spent a few years in antiques, you would definitely not sell such a closed item."

"If this white porcelain basin is placed in my hands, I must first make some traces of use on the white porcelain basin, then bury it underground for a year and a half, and put some on it from time to time. Only when the condiments are needed will they be sold.”

"Just like those who shoot short videos, they always shout about one spoonful of Qing, two spoons of Tang, three spoons of returning to Qin Shihuang, etc. Those guys all look more professional than you."

heard here.

Li Huaian also knew that he was indeed taking things for granted.

It's a bit of a misunderstanding.

Also too impatient.

Even if he knew in his heart that his porcelain was really from the Tang Dynasty, he shouldn't have been so reckless and ran out looking for a buyer with a piece of porcelain.

This behavior is too reckless.

then.

Li Huaian rewrapped the white porcelain basin on the table with waste paper and apologized to the owner of the antique shop: "I'm really sorry for bothering the boss. Maybe I was a little anxious."

"It's okay, no one has ever been young."

The owner of the antique shop smiled and waved his hand. When he saw Li Huaian was about to leave, he seemed to have thought of something and immediately said: "Little brother, if you still don't believe it, you can go out and turn left. At the end of this street, there is a restaurant that doesn't look good. Big private museum.”

"That's a museum opened by Mr. Chen, who is in the antique industry in our province. Mr. Chen is also a well-known expert in the archaeological community in Donghai Province. It can also be found on the national official website. You can try your luck. Today is the day. It’s the day when Mr. Chen comes to the museum.”

"When Mr. Chen was in the museum, he also received appraisal business, but it cost money, but it was not expensive. One appraisal only cost 200 yuan."

"Maybe Mr. Chen will be interested in this item of yours."

"I think that although this item of yours is not real, you can still learn a lot of knowledge by spending 200 yuan. It would be good for a young man like you to gain some knowledge."

Take advice from an antique shop owner.

Before Li Huaian walked out of the store, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go take a look."

"Thanks, boss."

Thank you.

Li Huaian left the Sheng Wenxuan antique store with the white porcelain basin.
