Chapter 48 Yongle Plum Vase
What's the meaning?
What big trouble?
Everyone was puzzled, Xu Jiajun frowned and said in a cold voice: "You are a guest of our Xu family, please weigh your words."
Grandpa Qin was thoughtful, Li Mo shouldn't be talking nonsense on this occasion, he signaled Li Mo to continue talking.
"Boss Niu, I have a question for you. If I have a genuine Yongle Mei vase, I will mortgage it to your auction house for 220 million yuan, would you like it?"
"As long as it is a real product, one hundred willing, there is no need to hesitate." Niu Sanpang replied immediately, he wished that such a good thing would happen to him.
Li Mo changed the subject: "What if I want to sell it to you for 110 million?"
Just as Niu Sanpang was about to clap his hands in agreement, he suddenly paused and asked strangely, "Why do you only sell me 110 million for an antique worth 200 to 300 million? Are you out of luck?"
Li Mo stopped answering the conversation, what he said was obvious. Old Master Qin and Old Master Xu looked at each other, and the two old men who had gone through vicissitudes of life could see the horror in each other's eyes.
They were all distracted by the Yongle plum vase, and forgot about things other than the plum vase.
The experts also realized that something was wrong and looked at each other in blank dismay.
"Li Mo, you mean that there is something wrong with the Yongle plum vase?"
Qin Sirui asked lightly.
"It doesn't matter whether the Yongle plum vase is real or not. If it is true, then there must be something wrong with the source of the plum vase. You can only throw it in your hands. If it is fake, someone must have carefully set up a trick , and the time of this game is not short, let you fall into it unknowingly, and lose 110 million funds. Cash, and possibly other places unwittingly spent too."
The living room was dead quiet. Although the temperature rose, everyone felt cold behind them, and the cold air rose from the spine.
"Li Mo, don't talk nonsense, things are not what you think." Xu Jiameng roared viciously, sweat rolling down his face uncontrollably.
Xu Jiajun's face was also extremely ugly, his face twitched slightly, and the panic in his eyes could not be concealed.
Mr. Xu is a person who has experienced big storms. He looked at Mr. Qin and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Qin, I'm a little messed up now, please help me out with an idea."
Old Master Qin was silent for a moment and said: "If the Yongle plum vase is genuine, then the loss can be recovered as much as possible. The most urgent thing is that we have to 100% confirm whether the plum vase in the study is genuine?"
"Grandpa, haven't you already verified that the product is genuine?"
Qin Sirui asked in puzzlement.
Old Master Qin shook his head slightly and said, "We just haven't found a loophole."
No flaws can be found. First, it means that the Yongle plum bottle is genuine. Second, it means that the level of the appraiser may not be enough to see the flaws of the high imitation.
"Li Xiaoyou, this matter is no small matter, I still trust you in terms of eyesight."
Old Master Qin thinks he is a friend who has forgotten his age, so Li Mo is naturally not good at refusing to talk about it.
"I'll go to the study to have a look."
A group of people returned to the study on the second floor. Mr. Xu took out a bottle from the built-in safe in the corner and put it lightly on the desk. Only Li Mo stepped forward to observe.
Looking at it with his naked eyes, this plum vase has a small mouth and round lips, a short neck, plump shoulders, wide ring feet, and blue and white decorations all over the body.
The shoulders are painted with deformed lotus petals, and the inside of the pattern is painted with flowers. The body of the bottle is painted with broken branches and fruits, three of each size, namely pomegranate, loquat, grape, cherry and lychee. The bottom of the bottle is painted with banana leaf patterns near the foot of the circle. a week.
Li Mo opened the plum vase and looked at the bottom foot, the sandy bottom, with flint stone marks, and the bottom inscription is "Made in Yongle Years of the Ming Dynasty" in seal script.
"Li Xiaoyou, what do you think of this Yongle plum vase?"
Li Mo pondered and said: "From the perspective of shape, this is a plum vase with blue and white folded branches, flowers and fruits in Yongle, Ming Dynasty. The height of the bottle is about 28 centimeters, the diameter of the mouth is 5 centimeters, and the foot diameter is about 11 centimeters."
"The tire quality is pure and white, the workmanship is fine, and the blue and white painting is skilled. The blue and white color is thick and green, and there are rust spots. This is because the blue and white materials are imported Sumaliqing, which has a high iron content."
"Against the background of the white body, the blue and white flowers covered under the glaze are green and colorful, and the flowers and fruits are covered with brown iron crystal spots, just like a traditional ink painting, which is scattered and natural."
Glaze color, ring foot, no problem with the base style, this is fired by JDZ Royal Kiln Factory, and it is imperial porcelain.
Li Mo preliminarily judged that there is no flaw in this Yongle plum vase. If it is genuine, as Mr. Qin said, the loss can be recovered as much as possible.
However, he still used his different pupils to cover the plum vase with his eyes, and there was a light white luster from the bottle body, and more than a dozen circles of light diffused out, indicating that this was a high-precision imitation made over the past ten years.
But the bottom of the circle of foot bottle has a dark blue luster.
Li Mo felt a chill in his heart, and his heart sank to the bottom.
This Yongle plum vase is a fake.
"Li Xiaoyou, we have carefully studied this plum vase. Whether it is the craftsmanship, the glaze color, the flaws, or the bottom of the circle, it is in line with the characteristics of Yongle imperial porcelain. They have also done two carbon fourteen tests before, and the time is no problem. .”
Seeing Li Mo's ugly face, Elder Qin couldn't help saying softly.
It is precisely because of the carbon fourteen test results that they decided to spend 110 million to buy it back, and it is also because of the speculation of this age that they were thrown from heaven to hell.
If it weren't for his different pupils, Li Mo would most likely believe that this is the genuine Yongle plum vase.
Looking at Mei Ping again, Li Mo suddenly felt that he had seen this Mei Ping before, and tried to recall it in his mind.
"Can you tell me about the situation of the seller?"
Old Master Xu slapped Xu Jiameng on the head: "Ask you."
Xu Jiameng had been uneasy all the time. He was slapped and jumped and subconsciously said: "The seller is a farmer in the southern Jiangxi area. He said that this plum vase is inherited from his ancestors. It gives the impression that he is an authentic old farmer. Well, the biggest feature It's just missing a little finger on my left hand."
"Nine Fingers!"
Li Mo exclaimed, he finally remembered where he saw it. On the train, one of the photos of the stolen national treasure porcelain was exactly the shape of the porcelain in front of me.
"He's nine fingers."
Xu Jiameng nodded.
Hey, Li Mo sighed secretly, this matter involves too much. Then he thought of something again, isn't that Jiuzhi has been under surveillance by the police all the time, how could he have a chance to escape and play such a big show.
"Li Xiaoyou, what is your conclusion about this plum vase?"
"Mr. Xu, please call the police. Everyone involved in this transaction is suspected, and they may all be accomplices."
Li Mo's words made everyone present feel cold.
"Impossible, what are you, why do you say it is fake, it is fake. Li Mo, I respect you as a guest, but if you talk nonsense again, I will not be polite to you."
Xu Jiameng was almost crazy, roaring in the study, he would never accept this conclusion.
"Li Mo, Mr. Qin will give you a chance to see the beauty of the plum vase because he likes you. So many experts, as well as the experts in the industry invited before, the carbon fourteen test has proved that this is the genuine product of Yongle plum vase. You are an idiot Boy, what right do you have to talk nonsense?"
Xu Jiajun was trembling all over. He also took out nearly 40 million of the 110 million funds. If it was fake, the loss would be unbearable.
"Calm down." Mr. Qin raised his hand to stop the two brothers, looked at Li Mo and said solemnly, "Little friend, I'm sure this is a fake."
Li Mo nodded calmly and said, "I said before that it doesn't matter whether Mei Ping is true or not. superior?"
"Boy, if you prove that you are talking nonsense, I will knock out all your teeth." Xu Jiameng took out his mobile phone and pulled out a number, indicating that it is temporarily unavailable.
"This may be because the signal of the other party is not good, I will contact another one."
The second explicit hint is the space sign.
Xu Jiameng's legs and feet were limp and he collapsed on the ground, his hands were trembling, and the third familiar number was broadcasted. After a few seconds, he rolled his eyes and passed out.
"Second brother."
"Second brother."
"Family fierce."
There was a sudden chaos in the study.
