It was just a very ordinary water tank. At least Yan Jingping thought so. If it were not for the style of urban farmhouses, he would never put such a water tank as a flower pot. After all, the workmanship of the flower pot was too rough and could not be sold for a hundred yuan when placed on the market.

However, as a shrewd businessman, he still instinctively asked: "Why, brother has any research on antiques?"

"The old man likes old things. I usually come out to play and see older things, and I like to go home."

Qin Xuebing smiled and said, "As for studying antiques, do you think it's possible for me to be of my age?"

"Yes, if you like it, take it, don't mention anything that's not worth it." Yan Gongping also felt that he was too nervous. An antique expert, who was not in his forties or fifties, could be called an expert, basically ignored it, and Qin Xuebing was only in his early twenties.

"That won't work. People's favors are favors, and business is business. This cannot be messed up." Qin Xuebing naturally had to pay, and in the antique industry, paying is the safest, and the deal is finalized and he must not go back on his word.

But if the other party didn't pay and took the thing away directly, and the other party found out that he had been picked up and pursued, he would definitely have to sue it. It was very troublesome, and the ownership of the thing would be difficult to say.

"That's it, I'll treat you today, even if you're worth a thousand yuan." Yan Gongping was still thinking about seeing the best jade, so he naturally wouldn't mind this little money.

"Then thank you, brother. I will ask you back when I arrive in the capital that day." Qin Xuebing took out his wallet and paid in cash.

"Brother, wait a moment, I'll let someone wrap the things so that they won't be bumpy." Yan Gongping hurriedly arranged the manpower.

"You go to the car to wait for me first." Qin Xuebing whispered to the beauty Lin. The number of customers in the store is gradually increasing. Her identity should not be exposed here, otherwise the scandal will be reported.

When the things were brought into the car, Qin Xuebing didn't stay for much and drove away. Another familiar customer walked to the cashier: "Lao Yan, don't you know who the young man was just now?"

"Is there anything wrong with the little brother who is here to travel?" Yan Gongping was a little surprised. Could it be that Qin Xuebing was lying to him? Is this necessary?

"You still claim to like playing with jade. Wouldn't you know about jade coffins?" said a regular customer angrily.

"Emerald coffin, treasure, Qin Xuebing..." Yan Gongping was stunned for a moment, and finally remembered that the young man just now was the treasure hunter who often appeared on TV shows some time ago.

"It turned out to be him, then I sold the thing to him just now?" Yan Gongping had an intuition that he had missed it, and it was likely to be a big miss.

"It's hard to say. After all, it's very rare to know Feng Shui at a young age, and it's not necessarily an antique." A regular customer said with a smile, but there was a bit of gloating in his tone.

"Yes, even if you sell it, it's nothing. Only those who know how to buy it are qualified to own it. If you put it at the door of the store, you might be hit by a car or damaged that day, which is called ruining the baby." Yan Gongping was also a Kuoda, and in his opinion, even if the porcelain is an old object, it's too bad in terms of quality and is not worth much money.

"Qin Xuebing, if you can be attracted by you, this porcelain should be very valuable, right?" The beauty Lin finally couldn't help asking, not understanding how valuable this rough porcelain was.

"This is not porcelain, to be precise, it should be a piece of pottery." When studying hard and correcting, although ceramics and porcelain are made of soil, there are still essential differences.

Ceramics are materials and various products made of clay as the main raw material and various natural minerals after crushing, mixing, forming and calcining. As early as the new era thousands of years ago, the process of firing pottery had appeared, and new discoveries were made in the archaeological world. Porcelain was developed based on ceramics.

The difference between pottery and porcelain is that one uses materials and the other uses fired temperature.

Pottery can be made into a blank using clay, while porcelain needs to choose a specific material and make a blank on a kaolin. The firing temperature can be made into a pottery at the temperature stage required for pottery. For example, ancient white pottery was fired in this way. At the temperature required for firing porcelain, the made blanks become porcelain. However, when the clay made of pottery is burned to 1200c, it cannot become porcelain and will be melted into glass.

The firing temperature of pottery is generally lower than that of porcelain, with a minimum of even below 800c and a maximum of about 1100c. The firing temperature of porcelain is relatively high, mostly above 1200c, and some even reach around 1400c.

In addition to these two points, ceramics and porcelain have different hardness, transparency, and even glazes. As long as you have seen the finished product, it is not difficult to distinguish.

"As for whether it is worth it, I don't know." Qin Xuebing couldn't say it well. There is not much circulation in the market, and the price fluctuates very much, and its value is more reflected in academic research.

But it cannot be simply generalized. Some fine pottery of old age are also very popular and can be said to be priceless.

After two more days of fun on the road, the car finally entered the capital. The beautiful lady Lin got off in a place with few people, and the transaction with Qin Xuebing came to an end for the time being.

Qin Xuebing returned home, put the two little foxes down the car, and walked in with a cardboard box himself. He unexpectedly found that there were a few more people in the yard, one of whom was playing chess with Mr. Qin. In addition, there were two men in suits, who were alert to the surroundings, and they should be figures like bodyguards.

"Grandpa, I'm back."

Qin Xuebing shouted, and Mr. Qin put down his chess piece: "Xuebing, come and see Lao Ye, it's Zi Jing's grandfather."

"Hello, Mr. Ye." Qin Xuebing was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the old man was Ye Zijing's grandfather. Moreover, he could feel that the old man was very lucky, and even he could not calculate it at all, which shows that his identity was not simple.

Looking at Qin Xuebing, Old Ye was stunned for a moment. He always felt that his face was familiar. He seemed to have seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it. However, the old man reacted quickly and said with a smile: "I have heard Zi Jing praise you a lot. When I saw you, I am indeed different from other young people."

Mr. Ye’s words are not a joke. He was from a military family. He had been on the battlefield many times when he was young, and then he had been in a high position for a long time. He had already developed a murderous aura of a soldier and the aura of a superior. Generally, young people would not react naturally when they saw him, and they would even feel scared. But Qin Xuebing was different, and all reactions were so natural.

"It's not the same, one nose and one mouth."

Qin Xuebing smiled and said, "You guys go down first, I'll put the things together before I'll accompany you."

"Don't worry about playing chess. What you have in your hands is an old object, right?" Ye Laoke heard Ye Zijing say a lot about how good Qin Xuebing's luck was and how rare and precious the collection was.

"I bought it from Teng Chong, why don't Mr. Ye help me with my palms?" Qin Xuebing simply put down the things and took out the porcelain.

"Southern Song Dynasty Official Kiln?" Old Ye's eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, Qin Xuebing would come back with the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty, quickly put down the chess pieces and came over to watch.

"The glaze is fine, the glaze is smooth, and it is emulsive, with a jade texture and a purple-mouthed iron foot. It is indeed an official kiln in the Southern Song Dynasty."

While admiring, Old Ye was amazed: "What is even more rare is that it is the most precious sky blue color in the official kilns of the Song Dynasty, and it is a rare and great weapon, a good thing, a rare treasure!"

"Xiao Qin, how did this thing come from?" Old Ye believed Ye Zijing's words now. This young man was lucky enough to find a bargain everywhere.

"It's a collision."

Qin Xuebing smiled and told the situation at that time. Old Ye couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "I deserve these people to beg for the sake of Baoshan."

"By the way, Mr. Ye, I have something else, please help me with your eyes."

After saying that, Qin Xuebing ran out and soon came in with a cardboard box: "It's a piece of pottery, but I don't know much about this."

"Where did you get this thing?" Old Ye's eyes widened, shocked. This thing is definitely more precious than the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty, especially in academic research. He was sure that if this thing was exposed, it would definitely become a special cultural relic and would never be allowed to go abroad, including exhibitions abroad.

"I met while passing by the mountain city."

Qin Xuebing talked aside the situation at that time and automatically omitted the passage of the beautiful girl Lin: "I saw that this was an old object at that time, but I don't know what the specific details are."

"Can you encounter such things even if you have a meal?" Old Ye was speechless, wondering how to praise Qin Xuebing's luck.

"Old Ye, let me first talk about what the details are about this thing?" Qin Xuebing asked again.

"It's so important, it's a product of the Neolithic period."

Old Ye stroked carefully, fearing that he would damage the thing with force: "From the shape of the instrument, this is a water tank. From the material, it should be sand-clad red pottery. These patterns are made of white, and black lines are used to outline the storks and fish-carrying stone axes. The lines are thick, strong, rough and simple, and they express the life style of the Neolithic period very vividly. They are definitely treasures from the ancient times."

Qin Xuebing used a jade pen to identify this piece of porcelain that has a history of more than 7,000 years and is in the Neolithic period: "So, this thing should have very high academic value, collection value and market value?"

"You won't want to sell it, do you? I'll pay 200 million, give me the thing." Old Ye bid without hesitation. This thing is not something you can buy with money.

"How is it possible? Of course, you have to collect such a good thing yourself." Qin Xuebing asked for it because he didn't understand the specific value of this thing, but it was impossible to sell it.

"That girl Zijing is right. It's impossible to get something out of your hands."

Old Ye smiled and said, "But you have to preserve this thing well. This is left by ancient ancestors. The value of each one cannot be measured by money. Also, do you know the first batch of sixty-four cultural relics that the country stipulates permanently prohibits the situation?"
