Chapter 13 Replicas of the Republic of China
"This little brother, do you want to buy some porcelain? Just pick and look at it. Let me tell you, these porcelains are all official kiln porcelain from the Qing Dynasty."
Having just sold the broken bed and broken wardrobe that were no longer needed at home, the middle-aged man happily counted the money while happily calling Han Chunming a fool in his heart.
This thing is in their countryside. They just go to the mountains to cut some wood and find two carpenters from the countryside. They can make it in two days, and there are actually fools who spend money to buy it.
It is said that this is an old thing from the Qing Dynasty.
He chopped up two of the same cabinets to use as firewood.
He had planned to chop up the bed and the rest of the wardrobe and use them as firewood.
At this time, Han Chunming found his home and was willing to buy the bed and wardrobe for fifty yuan.
How can he not sell it when he meets such a fool?
It's a pity that the two cabinets he chopped open could have been sold for fifty yuan instead of being used as firewood.
"The porcelain from the official kilns of the Qing Dynasty is a bunch of junk. They are all ordinary porcelain produced by the people of the Republic of China. They are not even handicrafts."
"Little brother, do you want it? I'll give it to you at a cheaper price. You can take it all and give me fifty yuan."
"Why should I buy these junk things? Brother, I happened to pick up a dog some time ago. I need a dog food bowl at home. How about I buy one for one dollar and take it back to feed the dog?"
"Okay, you can pick one."
A bunch of junk is indeed worthless. It cannot be exchanged for food or drink. In the countryside, it can only be taken and thrown away.
One dollar is money, so since there is a fool willing to spend one dollar to buy it, of course he has to sell it.
"Just this one, brother, I'll give you the money." Yang Yukun picked out a sunflower wash from a pile of rags, took out a dollar and handed it to the other party.
"Xu Jingping, let's go." After greeting Xu Jingping, who was full of doubts, the two of them walked out of the room and went to the yard to meet Han Chunming.
"Yang Yukun, when did you get a dog? Why didn't I know?"
Coming out of the room, Xu Jingping couldn't help but ask Yang Yukun.
She stays with Yang Yukun every day. Doesn’t she know whether she has a dog or not?
"I just said that casually. I lied to him. Do you really believe it?"
"Yang Yukun, is this piece of porcelain a treasure?"
"possible."
"What does it mean to be possible?"
"Maybe it's this thing, maybe it's a treasure, maybe it's just an ordinary piece of porcelain."
The shape of this sunflower washer is very complete, without any bumps or bumps. It is a high-tech product from the Republic of China period, imitating the Ru kiln azure-glazed sunflower washer from the Northern Song Dynasty.
But the imitation techniques are very rough, and professionals can tell at a glance that the thing is fake.
Since this thing was imitated during the Republic of China, why did he spend money to buy it?
Because he found that this sunflower wash was a little unusual, it was much thicker than normal sunflower wash.
Since it is an imitation of the Ru kiln azure glaze sunflower wash from the Northern Song Dynasty, people who imitate it should not make such low-level mistakes.
Unless this sunflower wash has another mystery.
After studying antique appraisal with his master for so many years, he has also heard many legendary stories.
In order to protect the real thing, some people will fake the real thing and hide the real thing.
It was only one dollar anyway. If there was another secret to this thing, he would have made a lot of money.
Even if it doesn't, it's still only a dollar.
Seeing Yang Yukun coming out, Han Chunming smiled and said, "Xiao Kun, let me see what treasures you got?"
Yang Yukun smiled and said, "Little Fifth Brother, what do you think of this thing?"
"Haha... Xiaokun, Xiaokun, I spent a long time shopping here, and you just picked a replica from the Republic of China, and it's such a bad imitation."
Han Chunming didn't even need to get his hands on this thing. He could tell at a glance that it was fake.
Yang Yukun stumbled this time, even worse than his stumble last time.
The bottle he bought last time was, after all, a high-quality product among the high-tech products of the Republic of China. Most people really couldn't tell the difference between genuine and fake.
As for Yang Yukun's sunflower wash, professionals can tell at a glance that it is fake, and the imitation is really bad.
"The light in the room is too dark, it's blinding." Yang Yukun smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Han Chunming patted Yang Yukun on the shoulder to comfort him, "It's okay. In our line of work, whoever hasn't had their eyes shot a few times can just throw away this piece of junk."
"I bought it for one dollar. It's a pity to lose it. You can take it back and use it yourself. I happen to be practicing calligraphy recently, so I can use this thing when I take it back."
"It's up to you, it's getting dark soon, let's go back."
"Walk."
"Brother Zhang, let's withdraw now. We'll meet again indefinitely."
"Slow down on the road."
"Okay."
Han Chunming rode a human-powered tricycle in front, pulling the red sandalwood wardrobe and golden nanmu bed he bought. Yang Yukun followed behind on a bicycle with Xu Jingping.
The three of them did not go back to the Qianmen building directly, but followed Han Chunming to a courtyard outside the city.
This yard was rented by Han Chunming before, and all the things he picked up during this period were placed here.
This farmyard is not far from the Qianmen building, and there is only an old couple in their sixties.
Put the things here, and with the old couple looking after them, you don't have to worry about losing them.
"Not bad, Brother Wu, I found so many good things."
Helping to carry the wardrobe and bed into the house, Yang Yukun admired the collection that Han Chunming had acquired during this period. There were twenty or thirty pieces of large and small items in total, mostly porcelain from official kilns of the Qing Dynasty and old-fashioned furniture from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
"I really thought that my brother quit his job and collected rags for nothing. Xiaokun, please keep it a secret for me. Even my master doesn't know about this."
"I understand, keep a low profile, enter the village quietly, don't let anyone shoot you."
"Yes, that's the truth."
Han Chunming didn't even tell his master or his mother about the collection. He didn't want others to know that he was collecting, especially those in the alley in the courtyard.
Anyway, in the eyes of those in the courtyard and alley, Han Chunming was just a pile of mud that couldn't hold up the wall, and he had nothing to do with any collector.
Since these people all think so, let them continue to think so.
My brother will develop quietly and one day in the future, he will blind the eyes of these people.
"Xiaokun, Jingping, let's go. Let's go to the second floor of the Qianmen cafeteria to eat hotpot mutton, and then go take a bath in Qinghua Pool."
After saying hello to the old couple, the three of us returned to the Qianmen building and had a meal of mutton-boiled meat on the second floor of the Qianmen cafeteria.
"Little Fifth Brother, I won't go to take a bath today. I'll go see my master tomorrow. Didn't you say you want to visit him tomorrow? I'll go and tell him. He has been running to the countryside recently. Whenever he goes,
For several days, I asked him not to go to the countryside tomorrow."
After dinner at the Qianmen cafeteria, Han Chunming wanted to invite Yang Yukun to take a bath in Qinghua Pool.
The piece of imitation Northern Song Dynasty Ru kiln azure-glazed sunflower wash that I bought from the Republic of China is still in my hand. Yang Yukun plans to take it over and show it to the master.
First, he sent Xu Jingping home, and then Yang Yukun went to the master's house in Rouge Hutong.
