MTL - The Alternate World Is Too Dangerous: I Hide In Reality And Rule!-Chapter 5 Ming Dynasty Microwave Oven

  Chapter 5 Ming Dynasty Microwave Oven

  Tianyi Auction Appraisal House!

  Lin Ye carefully carried the suitcase, followed the address on the Internet, and arrived at this company that integrated auction and appraisal. There was a beautiful receptionist in a cheongsam sitting at the front desk.

   "Sir, what's the matter?" The front desk showed a professional smile.

   "Hello, I made an online appointment with an expert for appraisal."

   "Okay, please follow me."

  The girl at the front desk was leading the way in high heels, and Lin Ye looked at the girl's beautiful figure wrapped in a cheongsam from behind, and she had only one feeling.

   Really moist.

   "Ms. Yang has a seminar at the museum today. Mr. Zeng was invited to participate in a cultural exchange meeting abroad. I will arrange for you Mr. Xu. You can just go in."

  The girl at the front desk stopped in front of an appraisal room and introduced the situation to Lin Ye. Lin Ye nodded and walked into the appraisal room.

  In the identification room sat a middle-aged man in his forties wearing a Tang suit, with 108 wooden beads hanging around his neck, and his whole body exuded an artistic atmosphere.

   "Hey, it's a young Tibetan friend, little friend, take out the collection."

  Lin Ye put down the suitcase, carefully opened it, and then took out the porcelain vase from a pile of clothes. He didn't bring both of them, but only one.

   "A beautiful amphora ceramic vase, little friend, how did this porcelain vase come about?"

   "It was uploaded by the ancestors." Lin Ye grinned.

   "Put it on the table."

  Lin Ye wanted to hand over the ceramics, but Teacher Xu didn't take it, but motioned Lin Ye to put the ceramic bottle on the table.

   "Little friend probably doesn't know much about antiques."

   "I don't know much about this. This bottle has been kept at home for many years, so I want to have it appraised by experts."

"It's about the same as what I guessed." Teacher Xu nodded, and while observing the porcelain vase with a magnifying glass, he explained: "In the antique industry, things can't be handed over. This way, I'm afraid they won't be connected properly and they will break. In case something goes wrong, it’s good to have a division of responsibility.”

   Lin Ye was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what Teacher Xu meant.

  If the antique is broken when the two parties take it over, whose responsibility should it be, is it not picked up or handed over?

  If it is placed on the table like this, if it is smashed, it will be the responsibility of the person who started it.

  In case some scheming is not right, let go of the hand in advance when deliberately handing it over, it will be even more unclear.

  Because the price of antiques is not easy to price, maybe it was only worth 20,000 yuan, but someone asked for 100,000 yuan. After all, it is hard to buy people who like it.

  Thinking of this, Lin Ye's professional recognition of Teacher Xu became a little higher.

  Ten minutes later, Teacher Xu retracted the magnifying glass, looked up at Lin Ye and asked, "How long has this porcelain vase been passed down?"

   "I'm not very clear. It has been from my grandfather. I heard that my grandfather bought it from others in the generation of my great-grandfather." Lin Ye said nonsense.

"Well, then your great-grandfather bought the right one at the beginning. Although there is no engraving on the bottom of this porcelain bottle, there are still painters on the glaze, including the blue and white patterns on it, which are all in the style of the Ming Dynasty. This is the blue and white dragon and phoenix in the Ming Dynasty. Although the bottle is not made in official kilns, it can be regarded as a masterpiece in folk songs."

  Lin Ye was a little apprehensive at first, because he knew that ancient official kiln porcelain was all inscribed and made in a certain dynasty, but the vase he brought back did not exist, so he was afraid that experts would not be able to date it.

  It seems that Teacher Xu has real skills.

   "Mr. Xu, how much is this worth?" Lin Ye asked a concerned question.

"At an auction in Beijing a few years ago, a pair of blue-and-white dragon and phoenix amphorae from the Jiajing Dynasty was sold for 16.4 million yuan. You are not an official kiln, so the value will be much lower, and there is only one. However, it is conservatively estimated that two Three million is no problem."

  Lin Ye's eyes lit up, one was two to three million, and he had another one at home, and the price could go up a bit for a pair, at least five million.

   "If possible, I will continue to collect such good objects. But if you want to sell them, our company will hold a porcelain auction next month. You can hand them over to our company for auction."

   "Are there any requirements for handing over to your company for auction?"

"Haha, what my friend said, you handed over such a good thing to our company to help our company build a reputation, and the appraisal fee can be waived for you, but you have to sign an agreement to confirm that it will be handed over to our company Auction, and then just pay a deposit of 50,000 yuan."

   "Do you still need to pay 50,000 yuan?"

  Lin Ye hesitated, he didn't have that much money with him.

   "Mr. Xu, can't you wait until the porcelain vase is auctioned?"

   "This is the company's regulation. Some Tibetan friends suddenly regretted not bidding before the auction started, but the company has already publicized it to the outside world. Doing so will affect the company's reputation, so they need to pay a deposit."

   Teacher Xu explained very carefully, and Lin Ye nodded. He didn't know much about the specific operation of the auction house, but what Teacher Xu said made sense.

   "Teacher Xu, I don't have that much money now, I'll go back and think about it."

"Go back and think about it?" Teacher Xu frowned and reminded: "According to our company's regulations, if you don't make a decision now, my friend, you have to pay the appraisal fee, even if you decide to hand it over to our company for photography later, this appraisal Fees are not refundable."

"I can accept."

  Fifty thousand won’t come out, but Lin can still afford the appraisal fee of 2,000 yuan. Besides, he will get millions soon, so 2,000 yuan is nothing.

   Putting the bottle back into the box, Lin Ye carefully carried the box and walked out of the company. When he reached the elevator entrance, there was a man holding a wooden box standing at the elevator entrance.

  Lin Ye and the other party looked at each other, and the man smiled and said, "The little brother is also here to appraise antiques?"

   "Yeah, it's just a fake."

  Lin Ye deliberately showed an expression of annoyance, and he still understood the reason why wealth is not revealed. Although the society is relatively stable now, it is necessary to be defensive.

"That's really a pity, but in the collection business, besides eyesight, you need to have background and experience. I have been playing porcelain for more than ten years, and I have drilled it many times. Until this time, I received a good object with my eyes. "

There was an uncontrollable joy on the man's face, and before Lin Ye could continue to ask, he said to himself, "I went to an antique stall some time ago and saw a piece of porcelain. The stall owner didn't know the goods, but I did. There is one in the Forbidden City that is exactly the same as this one, and I bought it for only 1,000 yuan."

  The man talked about how he fought wits and bravery with the stall owner, but Lin Ye murmured in his heart, how can you still meet antiques of the Forbidden City level on the stall?

   "You don't believe it. Just now, Teacher Chen appraised it for me. There is no doubt that it is authentic. He said that I am well-informed. Of course, there is also an element of luck. Those experts who think it is a fake are not knowledgeable enough."

  After hearing this, Lin Ye became a little curious. Other experts identified it as a fake, but here it is identified as a real antique. This kind of slap in the face is very attractive.

   "Brother, can you tell me something?"

   "Of course." The man was obviously identified as a fake by other experts, and this time the identification was genuine, and he let out a sigh of relief, and he couldn't hold back his words.

   "To play collection, first of all, you have to go to various museums to gain insight. Over the years, I have visited all the museums in the north and south of the river, especially the collections of the Palace Museum. I can recall them even with my eyes closed."

"Once I was in an antique street, and I saw a porcelain bowl, which was exactly the same as the one in the Forbidden City. The ancients fired porcelain, and it was impossible to burn them one by one. They were all in batches, especially porcelain bowls. At that time, I suspected that this might have flowed out of the palace."

   "Later, I bargained with the stall owner, and the stall owner sold it to me for 1,000 yuan."

   "Brother, since it is used by the royal family, it must be very exquisite, so the stall owner has not authenticated it himself?"

   "The stall owner didn't know the goods, so when he saw the characters on the base, he decided it was a modern handicraft."

  Lin Ye was a little curious, and asked, "What characters are engraved on the base?"

   "Microwave only."

  The corner of Lin Ye's mouth twitched. Microwave ovens are for this purpose. No wonder the stall owner thought it was a modern handicraft. Oh no, this is a modern handicraft.

   "Could it be that this base was added by later generations? In fact, the real base is covered?"

  Lin Ye thought of the plot of some precious paintings hidden in fake paintings in the novels he read in the past. If you want to say this, this big brother really missed it.

"How can there be such a mysterious thing? The base is those words. Teacher Chen said just now that this is the royal porcelain bowl of Wei Gaozong in Ming Dynasty. Those experts don't know it because Wei Gaozong doesn't like to be emperor. On the second day after he succeeded to the throne, he chose the position of Zen and became a monk, and his dharma name is Bolu."

"Think about it, the emperor's renunciation must not be rumored. There are examples in the Qing Dynasty. Isn't Emperor Shunzhi a renunciation? There is no record in the history books, and this batch of porcelain was secretly fired by JDZ for Wei Gaozong at that time. .”

   "Look, under the normal official kiln, the annual system of a certain emperor is engraved, but Emperor Gaozong wants to keep it secret. You can't use the annual system, so you can only engrave it for microwave ovens."

   "This matter is not found in history books. Teacher Chen only knew about these things after reading an ancient book of the Ming Dynasty by chance."

  Lin Ye: ...

   Can you still play like this?

   No matter how ignorant of history, Lin Ye also knew that this old man was fooled.

   Damn, I met a liar.

  Lin Ye also realized that Mr. Xu actually had many flaws in his truth, and the biggest flaw was the categorical dating.

  I was holding a vase from a parallel world, so how could it match the Ming Dynasty? It’s just that I was blinded by huge benefits and ignored this.

   Reflect on it!
