    Chapter 135 Foreign Colors

    Except for Zhou Xia being pestered by Zhao Xiangbo, the guests and hosts had a great time and all kinds of dishes were quite delicious.  

    No matter what, it didn¡¯t delay Zhou Xia¡¯s eating, and Zhao Xiangbo¡¯s matter was no longer a big deal to Zhou Xia.  He also thought like Ah Q, look at Zhao Xiangbo not talking to anyone else, but talking to him exclusively, how honorable is it, isn't it?

    After eating, since it was noon, everyone had to go about their business.

    Liu Yuqing also asked Zhou Xia what she planned to do in the afternoon.

    Zhou Xia hasn't decided yet. His plan is to go see Xu Yaohui if there is anything else to see.  I asked Xu Yaohui, and Xu Yaohui said that as long as Zhou Xia wanted to watch it, it would be absolutely fine.  He is very familiar with the antique collecting circle in Donghai. Not to mention this afternoon, if he wants to see it for a week or a month, that will be no problem.

    Xu Zhendong just laughed and told him not to brag too hard.

    Xu Yaohui smiled and said nothing.

    Zhou Xia also smiled and said that he would just hang out with Xu Yaohui during this period!

    Xu Yaohui was naturally very welcoming, and Zhao Xiangbo also wanted to join in the fun, saying he wanted to follow him to see him.

    Xu Yaohui was in high spirits just now, but when Zhao Xiangbo said these words, his face suddenly turned blue, and he begged for mercy and said, "Uncle Zhao, just spare us! If you want to follow me, how can we buy things? You and I!"  You can see everything we bought."

    Liu Yuanshan and Xu Zhendong also advised him not to make trouble. He was so old and still acted like a child, not ashamed.

    Zhao Xiangbo made a condition, "It's okay not to go. You have to agree to one condition."

    "Okay, don't mention one condition, I agree to all ten." Xu Yaohui nodded quickly, he was really afraid of him.  Xu Yaohui definitely couldn't stop him from the ghost market in the morning. Zhao Xiangbo also had the right to go shopping at that time, but now!  It's better to agree to his conditions.

    "If you want to buy another good thing, you have to inform me as soon as possible. You see, I only have a few years left to live. I don't have much hobbies in my life. I just want to see more of the good things left by my ancestors."  Something." Zhao Xiangbo

    Xu Yaohui hurriedly said, "Okay, now, shouldn't we just notify Uncle Zhao to come? Also, Uncle Zhao is in such good health and full of energy, he will definitely live a long life."

    Liu Yuanshan had no chance to talk to Zhao Xiangbo, so he just smiled and said, "Good people don't live long, and bad people live for a thousand years. Don't worry, Old Zhao. I'm afraid your life span will be longer than that of us old guys."

    For a while, Zhao Xiangbo and Liu Yuanshan were fighting together again, and the scene was quite lively.

    Then, everyone went about their own business.

    Liu Yuqing and Xu Zhendong went back to the auction company. During this time, Liu Yuanshan and his son were also busy working on the autumn auction, and they also had to visit customers and so on.  When Yu Fengxia returned to Jubaozhai, Zhou Xia gave her the Jianwen blue and white porcelain moon vase he had just bought to take home, intending to store it temporarily in their store and pick it up later.

    This is no problem, Yu Fengxia happily accepted it.

    After Zhao Xiangbo had enough of his eye addiction, he went home dejectedly.

    Xu Liuxin followed Xu Yaohui and Zhou Xia behind to get some experience. Anyway, no one expected her to play a decisive role.

    Before they set off, Liu Yuqing also said a few words to Zhou Xia. She also hoped that Zhou Xia could get more good things, and it wouldn't matter if they didn't go to the auction.  If you can feast your eyes on it, it is a considerable contribution.

    After eating and drinking, Zhou Xia was also full of energy.

    Xu Liuxin also laughed at him and said, "Zhou Xia, why do I feel that Grandpa Zhao is particularly partial to you?"

    Zhou Xia replied, "Is it because I have good character? How about, Xin'er, you also accumulate some character?"

    "I still don't want it. In fact, everyone is very grateful to you from the bottom of our hearts! You have taken so much firepower for us." Xu Liuxin chuckled.

    "Xin'er, you're right!" Xu Yaohui pretended to reprimand.

    "Dad, you don't think so in your heart." Xu Liuxin said proudly.

    Facing her, Xu Yaohui could only shake his head, "Hey, don't say it out then! Forget it, don't mention it, we have made appointments with a lot of people today. It's enough to dazzle everyone. The rules are still the same as in the morning, Xin  Son, you have to remember this.¡±

    "I know! Dad is really verbose." Xu Liuxin replied unhappily.

    Zhou Xia said, "Uncle Xu, your relationship with Xin'er is really good!"

    Xu Liuxin hummed. She felt that her parents were more verbose.The management is also broad.

    Xu Yaohui agrees with this statement. Although Xu Liuxin sometimes likes to be a little temperamental, overall, he is still a good baby.  At the very least, as parents, they don¡¯t have to worry about her becoming a bad learner, nor are they like some fat girls who put on makeup to look like ghosts, then hang out with bad boys, fall in love early, commit suicide, or even live together and get pregnant.  of.

    While joking, Xu Yaohui took the two of them into an antique shop on the roadside.

    Like Xu Yaohui, the main thing is to collect things from insiders. Although the price may be a bit more expensive, it is still much more reliable than going to the countryside to buy an old house or something.  Moreover, today's country people are not stupid. At most, they are not as knowledgeable as they are in this field. But when it comes to being clever, everyone is just the same.  Usually when he has nothing to do on weekends, Xu Yaohui will take Xu Liuxin to visit everywhere. In such an environment, it is difficult for Xu Liuxin to succeed!

    The owner of this shop is Huang Guodong, who is also a well-known connoisseur in Donghai.

    Xu Yaohui told the two of them this before going in. In fact, he mainly told Zhou Xia.  His subconscious mind is also very clear. It is basically difficult to pick up any big leaks in his hands.  But, there are no absolutes in this world. If you have the chance, you still have to try your best.

    When Zhou Xia went in, she didn't see what Huang Guodong looked like first, but habitually scanned the things in the store.  What made him slightly disappointed was that the things displayed in the store were basically nothing to see.

    What he didn¡¯t notice was that when Huang Guodong was chatting enthusiastically with Xu Yaohui, he also noticed his behavior of sweeping things and made a preliminary evaluation of him.

    Therefore, Huang Guodong specifically said to Xu Yaohui, "Old Xu, the person you brought here is relatively unfamiliar, why don't you introduce me to him?"

    Xu Yaohui introduced Huang Guodong with a smile and mentioned Zhou Xia's name, but did not reveal much other information.

    Huang Guodong didn't want to ask specifically, so he only said a few polite words to him.

    Zhou Xia also said, "I have just started in the industry, so I would like to ask Master Huang for more advice."

    After being polite, Xu Yaohui asked Huang Guodong to show them something. He did not dare to show those poor imitations and make them look conspicuous in front of connoisseurs.

    Huang Guodong asked them to wait, and then quickly took out a box from the back hall.

    Generally speaking, from the size of the box, you can roughly estimate the size of the items inside.

    This box is relatively delicate and elegant, but the material is ordinary, not the precious agarwood and rosewood.  It is completely incomparable to the agarwood that Zhao Xiangbo was extorted by Zhou Xia and others to auction.

    But compared to ordinary boxes for holding collections, it is still a level higher.

    This gives people a hint that the things inside may be genuine and high-quality products.

    ¡°Of course, with Zhou Xia¡¯s personality, they will definitely not give up until they see something. No matter how you package it, as long as the stuff inside is not good, they still won¡¯t buy it.  In fact, let alone them, even Xu Liuxin will not be affected by these external factors.

    But many collectors who are new to the industry may be easily deceived by people holding exquisite boxes that are so classic that at first glance they feel that the contents inside are very precious.  With a good first impression, they tell some touching stories to fool people into thinking, and then they buy the fake products at a high price without realizing it.

    Things like this happen from time to time.

    When Huang Guodong opened the box and took out the contents, Xu Liuxin shouted softly, "What kind of porcelain is this? It looks beautiful!"

    The smile on Huang Guodong's face was very proud, and he introduced, "This porcelain is indeed beautiful, Yongzheng official kiln. But what is it used for, I don't understand. Lao Xu, help me think about it."

    This piece of porcelain has a unique shape and is about thirty centimeters high.  Above it is a hexagonal cornice, hollow carvings, and rare wood grain glaze.  The middle is slightly concave, about twenty centimeters, with six dragon patterns and the characters "longevity".  The bottom plate is relatively solid, and it also corresponds to the wood grain glaze and hollow carvings on the six sides. The pattern is not the traditional branch pattern, and it feels particularly foreign.

    Not only Xu Liuxin and Huang Guodong didn't see what it was used for.  Even the well-informed Xu Yaohui couldn't figure it out. Needless to say, Zhou Xia, although he is now good at appraising antique collections, he may not have seen as many authentic ones as Xu Liuxin!

    "This really stumped me!" Xu Yaohui didn't rush to get started, but looked at the shape carefully.  ?I would say it¡¯s a pen holder, but it doesn¡¯t feel like it, and the chassis is too big.  It's said to be a smoker. There's glaze on it, and it doesn't have a lid. I really don't understand what it's for.  "

    Zhou Xia saw this style and found it a bit strange.

    It¡¯s true that this thing looks good, and the overall style is quite consistent with what Huang Guodong said, the style of the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty.

    Exquisite and elegant.

    Emperor Yongzheng paid special attention to things like porcelain. He even had specific requirements for what kind of porcelain to be fired and what shape. In addition, he was diligent in government affairs. In such a situation, it was impossible to  It's weird that he's exhausted.

    Huang Guodong said to them again, "I have shaped this thing into Yangcai. What do you think?"

    Xu Yaohui immediately went on to say, "I think Yangcai is similar. This style has a bit of a Western flavor. In traditional porcelain culture, this type of decoration is rarely seen. And the wood grain glaze is also particularly praiseworthy.  ! Lao Huang, where did you get this thing from? If it is really from the Yongzheng period, that would be terrible!"

    "Well, this one was also exchanged with other collectors. I liked it very much when I saw it. I kept stalking and exchanged it for another thing that I treasured. It was not easy to get it.  . If it weren¡¯t for Lao Xu who wanted to see it, I definitely wouldn¡¯t have taken it out. This thing must be from the Qing palace¡¯s old collection. Let me show you the inscription underneath. Do you see it? It¡¯s a six-character official kiln inscription, Qing Dynasty.  Made in the Yongzheng year, it is the most typical Yongzheng official kiln porcelain." As Huang Guodong spoke, he picked up the porcelain, turned it over, and showed them the signature on the bottom.

    Although Zhou Xia was a long way away, he could still see the mark below very clearly.

    The porcelain from the Yongzheng official kiln opens the door.

    After Xu Liuxin looked at it, she asked, "Is it possible that it is a palace lantern?"

    Huang Guodong shook his head and said, "If it is a palace lantern, it should be hollow in the middle. Otherwise, how would the light be able to shine through?"

    "Then I'm not sure!" Xu Liuxin thought about it. If a lamp is lit inside and cannot be seen from the outside, then what's the point of this lamp?

    Zhou Xia thought about it, and then said, "Maybe it's a flower pot or something."

    Xu Yaohui had another different opinion, "It's impossible to say it's a flower pot. The opening on it is too small, so I can't understand it."

    "Then don't think about this first, let's get started and see how it performs!" Zhou Xia felt that if you don't understand, just stop thinking about it for the time being and look at other aspects first.

    Xu Yaohui said yes.

    ?????????????????????? Then we did our part and started to take a look.

    This porcelain is quite big, so Xu Yaohui had to be careful when holding it in his hand, for fear of breaking it.

    Zhou Xia and Xu Liuxin started to watch. Then, the little girl Xu Liuxin was still a little unconvinced. She was thinking hard about what this porcelain was used for!  She felt unhappy if she couldn't think of it.

    Unfortunately, after thinking about it for a while, she still didn't figure out what it was for.

    Zhou Xia persuaded her and said, "Let's go back and look through historical documents. Yongzheng was only thirteen years old. It shouldn't be difficult to find this."

    Xu Liuxin nodded in approval, and then said, "If it is a small flowerpot like what Zhou Xia said, it is still possible! Moreover, this porcelain is very beautiful. It is a very elegant piece for appreciating flowers and porcelain.  matter."

    week  Just putting it there makes people feel very special! It has a foreign flavor and is different from ordinary porcelain. This is a unique scenery. "

    "It makes sense!" Xu Liuxin agreed. Now that the two of them have no way to get started, they can only talk about it here.

    However, both of them knew clearly in their hearts that this thing must be the Yongzheng official kiln.  Just by looking at the enamel and signing, you can basically characterize it, let alone other aspects of its performance.  Now, it depends on whether this thing has any other hidden defects, which is an important factor affecting the price.  (To be continued.
