One of the two Bada Shanren paintings, "Bamboo and Stone Mandarin Ducks," was definitely a forgery. With Niu Sanpang's eyesight, it was natural that he couldn't tell the authenticity. Mr. Qin was also shocked. He didn't expect that a similar painting would appear again.

He put the two paintings side by side, glanced at them one by one, and finally shook his head with a wry smile and said: "It's true that Zhang Daqian is too blind to recognize the original. Zhang Daqian's level of imitation has reached its peak, and it's enough to confuse the fake with the real one."

Li Mo clicked on one of the paintings and said, "The first one the old man admired was Zhang Daqian's imitation of Bada Shanren's work, and the second one was Bada Shanren's original work [Bamboo, Stone and Mandarin Duck]. If you have to see the flaws, go through high magnification."

A magnifying glass can clearly see that the original paper of Bada Shanren has a natural aging mark, which is an indelible mark left by time."

"Young people have good eyesight. Originally, I wanted to collect an authentic Bada Shanren painting, but Zhang Daqian's imitation seems more interesting in comparison. My friend, I have collected this Daqian imitation. Zhang Daqian imitated Tang Yin and Bada.

Shanren has imitated Shi Tao. The price of his imitation in the market basically fluctuates between 5 million and 15 million. How about I buy it at the highest price in the market?"

"Are the authentic works of Bada Shanren not considered?"

"I used to always want to collect better ones, but after encountering the incident with Lao Xu's family today, I realized that people can't be too greedy. Lao Xu has achieved some success in collecting, but he is not good enough. I didn't expect that this time he would be in trouble with his children and grandchildren.

It's a big mistake. I made a mistake again just now. Thinking about it, it's just for fun."

"Then you should keep this painting and don't talk about money. As for the Su Shi Tibetan inkstone you insist on giving me, this Zhang Daqian imitation is still a bit polite. Please wait a moment, I will go and get it.

I'll bring out the porcelain and pick another one for you, as a courtesy from you always calling me 'little friend'."

"Do you still have china?"

Li Mo smiled and went into the study and took out twelve items one after another and placed them on the coffee table. Even for an old man who was recuperating, he was still shocked, let alone a dabbler like Niu Sanpang.

Qin Sirui sat quietly aside, glancing at Li Mo's face from time to time.

"Master Li, please tell us."

"Okay, I'll just tell you. If you think what I said is not good, please correct me in time."

"If you don't tell me well, I probably won't be able to tell you anything." Mr. Qin put down the porcelain in his hand. There were good things all over the table.

Li Mo first picked up a pair of vases and said: "This is a pastel vase from the Republic of China, with flags and begonia flowers on the surface. It is a fine product made to commemorate the victory of the Revolution of 1911. This pair of pastel vases is a hundred years old and is in circulation on the market.

It’s not much, but the price is not high. This pair is worth about 100,000 yuan. But things are rare and expensive, so they can be collected as family heirlooms.”

"My little friend, if you are willing, how about you give me these pair of pastel vases from the Republic of China?"

"Old man, there are still better ones in the back."

"I have a collection of porcelain from the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. I really lack some from the Republic of China period. With them as supplements, my porcelain collection will be even more perfect."

"This pair of pastels from the Republic of China is now yours."

Li Mo handed them to Mr. Qin.

"Haha, I'm really rude this time." The wrinkles on Mr. Qin's face relaxed with a smile.

Li Mo picked up the third piece of porcelain and said: "This is a three-legged small bottle of pink and green glaze from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. The market price is about 600,000 yuan."

"This fourth piece is also from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. It is called a bean green glaze gourd vase. The market price is about 5 million."

"This is a large pastel Baizi bowl from the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty. The old man also has an exact replica at home. The market price is estimated to be no more than 500,000 yuan."

Mr. Qin nodded and said: "The current transaction price on the market is more than 300,000 yuan."

Li Mo picked up the sixth piece of porcelain, which was a flat vase. He looked at the inscription on the bottom and said: "The Qing Yongzheng pink celadon glazed string-patterned flat vase. I remember this style is in the auction records. It costs about 7 million. Now

If it goes up for auction, it won’t be less than eight million.”

Li Mo was very careful when handling the seventh piece of porcelain. Everyone knew that the genuine item in front of them was worth at least tens of millions.

"This is also an authentic product from the prosperous period of Qianlong. It is quite special. It is called a hollowed-out banana leaf bottle with pink celadon glaze on the outside. As you can see, the bottle has a pink celadon glaze color on the outside and the hollow part inside is white. Such exquisite craftsmanship and such an authentic price.

It’s not low. If it goes up for auction, it will exceed 40 million, no problem.”

"This bowl is so beautiful."

At this time, Qin Sirui picked up a bowl with bright colors. She looked through it and handed it to Li Mo.

"This is a large bowl with lotus pond and mandarin duck pattern made in the Wanli era of the Ming Dynasty. Speaking of doucai, you may have heard of the Ming Chenghua doucai chicken jar cup. The international auction price is as high as more than 280 million."

There was a burst of exclamation in the hall.

"Master Li, how much is this Wanli bowl worth?"

Li Mo smiled and said: "This is cheap, about three to four million."

It's the same doucai, but the price is very different. It's really cheap.

Niu Sanpang immediately showed a look of disappointment. It would be great if this was replaced by a colorful chicken cup.

The ninth piece is a lotus plate with blue and white intertwined flowers from the Yongle Ming Dynasty, and the tenth piece is a blue and white pomegranate plate from the Xuande Ming Dynasty. The price of these two authentic pieces is about the same as the Wanli bowl, both around 4 million.

Compared with the Wanli Doucai bowl, the blue and white plate is much monotonous in color.

There are two final pieces left on the coffee table, one is Song Dynasty porcelain, and the other is porcelain with a green halo.

Li Mo picked up the Song Dynasty porcelain and handed it to Mr. Qin and said: "Old man, you have a master's eye."

Mr. Qin took the hand and identified it for a few minutes and said: "The shape is like a basin, the carcass is light gray, the glaze is sky blue, round and thick, and has the feeling of baked porcelain jade. The bottom is engraved with the words 'Chonghua Palace Shufangzhai Use',

This is a Song Jun kiln sky-blue begonia narcissus basin exclusively used in the inner palace."

"My little friend, my eyesight is not bad."

"Nothing to say, just two words: admiration."

"Master Li, this official porcelain from the Jun Kiln of the Song Dynasty should be worth a lot of money, right?"

"This is not too expensive. The market price is more than 10 million."

Li Mo picked up the last celadon plate, which was the only porcelain among the twelve pieces that had not yet been identified.

Judging from the appearance, this is a celadon-glazed six-piece sunflower-mouthed dish with exposed feet. It is brown-black in color and has a fine texture. The glaze is slightly shrunk under the edge of the mouth and near the feet, and dark black fetal bones can also be seen.

.

This plate has a diameter of 13 centimeters and is in the shape of a six-petal sunflower with a slender mouth, shallow curved walls, folded waist, and rounded feet. The shape is regular, the glaze layer is plump, the glaze surface is uniform, and the appearance is perfect.

Open the Kwai Kou plate and look at the bottom. There are two characters that read "Privy Council".

This is Yuan Dynasty porcelain.

The Yuan Dynasty existed for less than a hundred years, and the base of the porcelain fired rarely showed the year mark. In addition to using some markings from the Song Dynasty, some bowls and plates had the markings of "Privy" and "Taixi", which were specially customized for the palace.

.

The one in my hand is an authentic Yuanqing-glazed six-piece sunflower-mouthed dish.

"Old man, look at this."

Mr. Qin took the Kui Kou Pan and studied it for a while and praised: "In terms of technology, in ancient times it was far inferior to today, but in terms of craftsmanship, modern people are also far behind the ancients. This Yuan Dynasty Liu Kui Kou Pan is quite exquisite.

"

"Grandpa Qin, is porcelain like this expensive in the market?"

"It's still around 30 million anyway. Little Niu, you'd better ask your grandpa for more advice when you have time. In addition to being good at doing business, Lao Niu is also quite good at appraising treasures."

"I will keep Grandpa Qin's teachings in mind."

"Li Xiaoyou, do you plan to put all these calligraphy and painting porcelains up for auction?"

"Well, in my plan, I will keep the unique items in the world, extremely rare calligraphy and painting jade and porcelain worth over 100 million, and sell the rest."

"Master Li, I will definitely satisfy you at the autumn auction."
