    Then, she first called Wang Dongrui and told him that it was an important matter about his treasure collection and she wanted to meet with him to discuss it, and made an appointment to meet at his home.

    When Liu Yuqing asked Zhou Xia to visit Wang Dongrui together, he was still thinking about what happened before. Everything happened too suddenly and dreamily. If he hadn't experienced it personally and the wounds on his body were still aching, he would definitely have regarded it as an accident.  A dream.

    It was left to Zhou Xia to pick up the brocade box. He followed Liu Yuqing and when he walked out of the company, he attracted some envious and jealous looks. Wang Chao joked to Zhang Jie, "I really envy Zhou Xia's good luck. I have them too."  If you have the urge to throw porcelain, you might also get the chance to make meritorious service and live with the goddess."

    Zhang Jie, who had just lost a hundred yuan in a bet, was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do.

    Liu Yuqing¡¯s car is a black Audi A6. It is nothing in the international metropolis of Donghai, but few people can get in her car.  From this perspective, Zhou Xia is indeed quite lucky, even if he can only sit in the back seat and guard the porcelain.

    On the way, Liu Yuqing also told Zhou Xia what to pay attention to when she saw Wang Dongrui later. It was actually simple. He basically had nothing to do with him and was just a follower. Fortunately, he looked honest and responsible, but  I'm not a particularly pedantic person, so there won't be any problem if I speak out from my own experience.

    Wang Dongrui's family's villa complex in Ningwan is a gathering place for the rich in the East China Sea. Zhou Xia has worked at Tiandi Auction Company for more than a year and often comes here, so he is naturally familiar with these areas.

    Liu Yuqing often visited these places and drove directly to Wang Dongrui's house without any obstruction.

    Wang Dongrui is in his fifties and somewhat wealthy. He wears casual clothes at home, but his expression is not very leisurely, because he doesn't know what happened when Liu Yuqing took his treasure back to the auction house in the morning, and now she comes back to him.  She hadn't made it clear on the phone.

    Naturally, he also saw Zhou Xia next to Liu Yuqing. What he was holding in his hand was the Hongwu underglaze red that he had returned from overseas exchanges.

    After welcoming the two people into the house, Wang Dongrui couldn't wait to ask her, "What happened? Can you let me see the porcelain first?"

    Liu Yuqing sincerely apologized and said, "Of course. I came here this time to apologize to Mr. Wang. I'm really sorry. Due to our mistakes at work, Mr. Wang entrusted our auction house to auction the Hongwu glaze.  The large plate of Lihongtangzhihua was smashed. On behalf of our auction house, I would like to express my sincere apology for this and am willing to compensate Mr. Wang for all losses."

    Hearing that the porcelain was broken, Wang Dongrui¡¯s expression suddenly changed.

    Zhou Xia has been paying attention to him. However, he did not say as he expected, rudely saying something about how your auction house did it and how he dared to hand over things to you with confidence in the future.

    Although he was very excited, Wang Dongrui controlled his emotions very well and said slowly, "No one wants to see something like this happen. I think you made it unintentionally!"

    "No matter what, it is our fault, and our auction house will fully bear the trouble and loss caused to Mr. Wang." Liu Yuqing continued to lower her posture, and then ordered Zhou Xia, "Zhou Xia, give the porcelain to  Mr. Wang has seen it, and we failed to take good care of Mr. Wang¡¯s baby, which was a dereliction of duty on our part.¡±

    For a beauty like Liu Yuqing to have such an attitude, it would be difficult for ordinary people to get angry. What's more, Wang Dongrui's mind was focused on his precious porcelain at this time, and he wanted to see what his precious porcelain was broken into.  Looks good.

    Zhou Xia also said sorry repeatedly. Attitude is most important at this time. Even if the guest gets angry, he must accept it patiently.

    When Wang Dongrui opened the brocade box, his hands were trembling slightly. After seeing the porcelain fragments broken into dozens of pieces, his face could not help but twitch a few times.

    But soon, the expression on his face became more and more exciting, because he is also an old antique collector and has a good understanding of Hongwu underglaze red. He also knows more clearly that broken porcelain can be used to identify porcelain more accurately. Now this  This is exactly the case with a large Hongwu bowl with red underglaze lotus pattern.

    No matter how good its external performance is, the porcelain body and quality of the porcelain can really reflect the real situation. It is impossible for imitations to be consistent with the real thing internally.  Especially for an experienced connoisseur like Wang Dongrui, he may not have many complete genuine porcelains in person, but he has seen a lot of ancient porcelain pieces. Comparing the two, it is easy to draw conclusions.

    Liu Yuqing and Zhou Xia looked at each other, then fell silent and let him do the appraisal.

    There was silence for a while, Wang Dongrui observed and rubbed for a long time, then he raised his head and said, "So, this time we all?Double your eyes?  "

    Liu Yuqing hurriedly replied, "This imitation is completely imitated according to ancient methods. The cost is very high, and the maker is a top expert. It is very different from those inferior Hongwu underglaze red imitations from Fanjiajing. It is truly fake.  It¡¯s not cheap either. Otherwise, it wouldn¡¯t have been hidden from so many pairs of our eyes.¡±

    Wang Dongrui sighed softly, "Hey, I should have thought of the possibility of such high imitations among the porcelain returned from overseas."

    Liu Yuqing immediately said, "I know a master who is very professional in repairing porcelain. If Mr. Wang agrees, we can ask him to help repair the porcelain completely. After the repair, this underglaze red piece still has good value.  "

    Wang Dongrui said, "No need for the time being. I want to study it for a while first. Master Xu has seen the condition of this porcelain. What does he say?"

    Liu Yuqing replied, "Master Xu has also seen it, and he has a lot of impressions. He said that there is no limit to learning, and it really gained a lot of experience. We also specially sent it to the appraisal center for appraisal, and they unanimously confirmed that it was from the last century.  I also brought the certificate issued by them for the imitations from the 1990s."

    "There are indeed many hidden masters among the people. Now it seems that just using this pair of eyes is no longer enough. High-tech instruments are becoming more and more useful. If you want to collect things in the future, you will have to conduct more research. As long as you find something, you will not be able to collect it."  If it is appropriate, just veto it with one vote to avoid making such a joke." Wang Dongrui sighed after reading the certificate she handed over.

    Liu Yuqing said, "Yes, although this underglaze red piece is a high imitation, it is fired completely according to the ancient method. It is exquisitely made and meticulous, and its value is still not low. We estimate it at 450,000, and we will compensate Wang at this price."  Sir, I wonder if Mr. Wang is satisfied?"

    "The price is about the same. I have to thank you, otherwise I wouldn't know that this porcelain is an imitation." Wang Dongrui is also a knowledgeable person. He also knows that Liu Yuqing and the others did not shirk their responsibilities or make random quotes. The cost of this porcelain is about  It looks like more than 200,000 to 300,000, but an imitation is still an imitation. Even if it is made with exquisite workmanship, its value is completely incomparable with the real thing.  Now the price of 450,000 is considered quite satisfactory.

    "Mr. Wang doesn't care about our work mistakes. It's our turn to say thank you." Liu Yuqing quickly wrote out the check and handed it to Wang Dongrui.

    Wang Dongrui took it without a second glance, put it in his arms, smiled, and asked her casually, "Can you tell me what's going on?"

    He did not doubt that Tiandi Auction House broke it deliberately, which would not do them any good.  Although all auction companies in mainland China now help to check the authenticity, they do not guarantee that the items at the auction are authentic, and they do not assume any responsibility. Buyers need to identify the authenticity by themselves or ask experts to identify the authenticity before bidding with confidence.  Even if they find out in advance that it is a high imitation, they can still put it up for auction without resorting to such drastic measures to break it into pieces to identify the authenticity.

    Liu Yuqing explained the situation in detail, and the person involved, Zhou Xia, was also pulled out by her to give her explanation.

    I heard that they broke the porcelain in order to save the talent. He could have avoided it and chosen to save the porcelain, but in that case, Wang Dongrui might not look down on them.  Now Wang Dongrui couldn't help but look at Zhou Xia a few more times. His expression was still calm, and coupled with his usual honest look, it was indeed very convincing.

    "Young man did a great job! Saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. This piece of porcelain is worth the fall. This is also its life. Don't take it too seriously. This is an imitation in itself. I shouldn't charge you for compensation."  of."

    Wang Dongrui expressed his gratitude repeatedly and took out the check from his arms to return it to Liu Yuqing.

    Liu Yuqing quickly refused, "If Mr. Wang wants to do this, we will be really embarrassed! No matter what, things happened in the hands of our auction house, and it is impossible for you to bear the loss. Otherwise, in the future,  No one dares to put things in our auction house for auction."

    Zhou Xia also said, "It's all my fault, but I can't let Mr. Wang suffer. Mr. Wang is willing to forgive me for my work mistakes, which has moved us deeply. Others are not as generous as Mr. Wang."

    Seeing that they were determined to do so, Wang Dongrui stopped insisting.  He also took the initiative to propose at this time, "This porcelain is missing from this auction, so your auction house will be in trouble! I still have a few collections here. If you want to see them, you can choose one to participate in the auction.  "

    ¡°I¡¯m really sleepy and I¡¯m sending pillows, and Liu Yuqing is worried that she has no place to collect auction items!  She didn't expect Wang Dongrui to be so easy to talk to, so she was disrespectful and said gratefully, "Then I'll thank Mr. Wang first. I'm worried about not having enough auction items!"

    Wang Dongrui waved his hand, "It is said that this imitation has delayed your time. I also want to put my best efforts into it."Don't just think something is bad.  "

    Liu Yuqing smiled and said, "How could it be possible? Mr. Wang's collection is all exquisite. It is our greatest honor to be willing to hand it over to our auction company for operation."

    Wang Dongrui smiled and said, "Then you wait a moment, I will go get it right away."

    Liu Yuqing and Zhou Xia agreed repeatedly, and Wang Dongrui went to pick up his treasure collection first.

    After he left, Liu Yuqing also said to Zhou Xia, "Thanks to Mr. Wang's generosity, he didn't care about us, but was willing to help us."

    Zhou Xia nodded and said, "Yes, people with ancient style like Mr. Wang have become increasingly rare!"

    Liu Yuqing said happily that Wang Dongrui had collected a lot of good things, and he could take a look at them later.

    Zhou Xia hurriedly said, "This is my luck. Being able to have close contact with so many precious collections is all thanks to Manager Toliu."

    "Stop saying these sour words, and you can help me see it later." The matter was resolved smoothly, Liu Yuqing was in a good mood, and her smile was as bright as a flower.  It was impossible for her to call Xu Zhendong over now, so she would do the appraisal herself.

    "Then I will learn more from Manager Liu." Zhou Xia replied humbly. In fact, he has learned a lot from Liu Yuqing in the past year since he joined Tiandi Auction Company.  She has rich family knowledge and has been exposed to it since she was a child. She is countless times better than him who became a monk halfway.  Moreover, Liu Yuqing didn't like to keep secrets. She knew that what he lacked most was practice, so she often gave him a few words of advice during the actual appraisal process.

    While the two were talking, Wang Dongrui came over with a piece of porcelain. Zhou Xia's eyes, which were a little short-sighted, became particularly clear, and he could see what he was holding at a glance.

    Liu Yuqing is not bad either. She seems even more excited and has already exclaimed, "Chenghua Doucai!"
