Chapter 74 The abstract treasure appraiser Su Fan encountered in those years
What Jamie said is not unfounded.
He believed in Su Fan and felt that the latter was knowledgeable.
In addition, Karl boasted about Su Fan's performance in the police station that day.
The treasure appraiser has not run away.
Su Fan himself thought so too, so he paid great attention to this treasure appraisal meeting.
In the next few days, the former even stopped for half a day to practice his studies, review and consolidate the antique knowledge taught by Old Man Su, and read relevant books.
The weekend arrived in the blink of an eye. Su Fan brought his own set of equipment and got into a taxi to the museum.
After arriving, the organizer took him to a special location.
According to the person in charge of the site, this is a specialized location for appraisal of Chinese antiques.
They will divide the appraisers responsible for different cultures and countries into areas to facilitate them to develop their expertise.
Su Fan affirmed their work, and at the same time secretly nodded at Jamie's reliability.
Not far from here, there are several cameras set up, obviously to record the treasure identification process for subsequent editing and playback.
It can be seen that this time is not a simple exhibition, the specifications are quite formal.
After Su Fan came to his seat and sat down, he began to wait.
A long line of experts has formed nearby to identify modern paintings and cultural relics.
Su Fan seemed a little deserted here.
The former had already anticipated this situation.
Westerners think that their own civilization is superior to others, so they generally only value famous paintings and cultural relics from Italy, France and other countries.
I have no interest in the humanistic history and value contained in the antiquities of other countries.
For example, when the cow head among the twelve animal heads in the Yuanmingyuan was discovered, it was used as a towel decoration in the bathroom by its owner.
However, after waiting for a while, Su Fan finally received his first appraisal item.
A piece of porcelain.
The owner of the porcelain is a middle-aged man dressed very formally.
"Sir, please help me see what age this piece of porcelain is."
The latter preciously took out a box, put it on the table and opened it.
“When I bought it, the person who sold it to me said that this was a porcelain specially supplied by the emperor of the last dynasty of an ancient Eastern country. It was very rare...”
Hearing this, Su The first thing that comes to mind is the official kiln during the Xianfeng period.
In that era, the Qing Dynasty was in decline, with political corruption, economic decline, the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the invasion of Britain and France, which could be described as internal and external troubles.
In addition, Jingdezhen, which produces porcelain, is in a war zone and production ceased in the fifth year of Xianfeng, so the quantity is scarce.
It is reasonable to live outside.
Thinking of this, Su Fan sat up a little straighter and took the porcelain.
But after just one glance, the look of anticipation in Su Fan's eyes disappeared. When he saw the bottom of the market, he couldn't even hold himself tight and covered his mouth.
Across the way, the middle-aged man suddenly became energetic when he saw Su Fan covering his mouth and losing control of his facial expressions!
"How's it going, sir?"
"I bought this for ten thousand dollars. It shouldn't be fake."
More than ten thousand dollars ?
After hearing this, Su Fan raised his hand that was about to put it down again.
After a long time, he cleared his throat and spoke.
"Ahem, you... how do you put it... Judging from the carcass and the glaze color on it, it should not be porcelain from the Qing Dynasty, nor is it an official kiln."
"It's new."
After hearing Su Fan's words, the middle-aged man opposite was stunned.
"Really? But to me it looks no different from the porcelain in the picture..."
"I have no reason to lie to you."
"It's really not. Antique?”
“It’s not true.”
After confirming again, a look of embarrassment appeared on the middle-aged man’s face, and then anger.
“The damn profiteer dared to deceive me...” “I’ll go find him to settle the score!”
“Instead of settling the score, I think you should add a little bit, Relevant knowledge... If you want to do business in Chinese literature, you must at least learn Chinese..."
Su Fan turned the porcelain over, revealing the black font on the bottom of the plate.
On it are three small words in bold.
Master Kong.
"This is..."
"The most famous instant noodle manufacturer in China."
"..."
Hearing this, the white man The middle-aged man's face turned the color of pig liver, and he turned away angrily.
"Sir, your porcelain plate..."
Su Fan shouted twice symbolically from behind, but the other party moved faster and faster, and in the end he directly pulled off his tie. Ran wildly.
“Alas...”
If you want to do business, you don't know the ropes, and you dream about buying treasures through shit luck every day. If you don't get cheated like this, who will be cheated?
Abstract.
After sending away the white man Master Kong, Su Fan began to wait patiently for his next treasure appraisal client again.
The second person who came to appraise the treasure did not make Su Fan wait too long.
The person who came forward this time was an old man with gray hair.
Looking at his appearance and skin color, he should be Asian.
Different from the previous one, the latter was carrying large and small bags, and his posture was not small.
But when Su Fan saw the other party, he narrowed his eyes.
There is no other reason. The other party’s attitude and eyes are wrong.
Although the old man looked a little stooped, his eyes looked around, exuding sharp hostility.
The latter came straight to Su Fan and put down his large and small bags on the table with a heavy muffled sound.
"Please help me see if these things are real."
He said trouble, but the old man didn't look grateful or polite at all. Instead, he stared closely behind him. Su Fan's every move.
"Okay, you open it first."
Su Fan seemed not to feel the hostile gaze and said calmly.
The old man opened the baggage three times, five times and two times five times.
Porcelain, jade, and even ancient ink paintings were revealed...
Su Fan picked them up one by one and looked at them, but he didn't look at them for long before putting them down.
"How is it?"
After looking at Su Fan almost once, the old man immediately asked.
"New one."
Su Fan said directly.
"New? Which one do you think is new?"
The old man did not say anything immediately, but stared at Su Fan's face and asked again.
"They are all new. All of them."
Hearing this, the old man stared and immediately slammed the table!
“Bang!”
The sound immediately attracted the attention of everyone around, including other appraisers who were appraising the treasure.
"You are talking nonsense! You don't know anything, so you are pretending to be an appraiser here!"
The old man shouted, blood vessels bursting out on the withered skin, and the hoarse voice came out All over the entire venue.
"Do you know when this porcelain was made? Do you know how to identify jade? Can you understand ancient paintings?!"
