Chapter 4 Fakes... Arrival in Hong Kong
Three days later, Chen Feng had his own nest in Bianliang City.
I have to say that the housing prices in Bianliang are really not cheap. It’s just a small yard that costs a total of 500 guan. This is not a small amount. According to the purchasing power of the early Song Dynasty, 500 guan will cost about 100,000 guan.
Fortunately, Chen Feng didn't care about this money at all. With the Song Dynasty copper coins brought back to modern times, it might be worth a lot of money when sold as antiques, but it was too troublesome and too many, attracting attention. It would be better to spend as much as you can.
"This thing is Jun porcelain? I don't look special." Chen Feng was holding a beautiful red bowl in his hand, knocking here and touching there.
If the experts and scholars in the real world who study ancient porcelain see Chen Feng's behavior, they will probably hang Chen Feng up and beat him up. This is the authentic Northern Song Dynasty official kiln Jun porcelain. Although it is the early Northern Song Dynasty and the maturity of Jun porcelain, official kiln porcelain is not something that ordinary people can get. As for official kilns, the official kilns are naturally used by high-ranking officials and nobles.
Fortunately, the pawnshop owner had good energy and got Chen Feng a complete set of official kilns and Jun porcelain, such as tea sets, tableware, and four treasures of the study, and everything was available, but the price was not cheap, and it was almost more expensive than this yard.
But there are more expensive than this, that is, the calligraphy and paintings sent by the pawnshop shopkeeper to Chen Feng. The number is not large, only three, two characters and one painting. But only these three calligraphy and paintings not only emptied Chen Feng's remaining money, but also took away a mirror and a set of stainless steel tableware for the shopkeeper. However, if the thing is real, then Chen Feng really doesn't take this little money seriously.
The characters are from the Tang Dynasty poet Liu Zongyuan's "Fisherman" and Du Fu's "Slim Horse Walk". The paintings are pictures of the ladies of Zhang Xuan, a court painter in the Tang Dynasty. The original works of these three people have basically disappeared in the real world. Even in the Song Dynasty, it was a treasure that was hard to find for thousands of gold. Fortunately, it is now in the early Song Dynasty, and the prices are not too expensive. In this way, the price will probably have to double in the late Northern Song Dynasty.
As for the question of authenticity, Chen Feng was not worried at all, because even if it was fake, it was a copycat before the Song Dynasty, and it was just as profitable.
So, Chen Feng took these spoils with longing and returned to the real world through the time and space gate, hoping that these things could bring him a big enough surprise.
……………………
At the appraisal office of the XX Auction House in Hangzhou, Chen Feng looked at the Jun porcelain brought out of the Northern Song Dynasty in his hand and smiled bitterly.
Dreams are beautiful, reality is cruel. Chen Feng has no previous optimistic mood at this moment. He is surprised and surprised, but unfortunately he is only surprised and not happy.
Why? No, because of other things, because the Jun porcelain in hand was identified as a modern high imitation, the inspector even said directly that the porcelain has been released for no more than two years, but its production level is still very good, it is a fine product, worth thousands of dollars.
A high-quality imitation of your sister, a high-quality one, this is a serious Song Dynasty Jun porcelain. Chen Feng really wanted to curse, but he couldn't scold him because he wanted to blame him, and he could only blame him for not meeting this.
Yes, the things were from the Song Dynasty, but the appraisal was also correct, because the pawn shopkeeper had already told him that this was the official kiln that was just released in the early 3rd year of Taiping Xingguo (the reign of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty), and the time and space he went to was exactly the end of the fourth year of Taiping Xingguo. He didn't take it seriously at that time. Now, thinking about it, it was not only less than two years from the outbreak to the time he brought it back? The serious new porcelain can be recognized by testing equipment, which is strange.
In other words, the way to bring antiques back from the ancient movie world is half broken.
Why is it said to be half broken? Because while the porcelain was cut into a fake, the three calligraphy and paintings were considered genuine.
Because unlike porcelain, calligraphy and painting will not be tested with carbon 14, because it will cause great damage to calligraphy and painting. Moreover, these three calligraphy and paintings are objects from the middle Tang Dynasty, which are more than two hundred years since the reign of Emperor Taizong of Song Dynasty. The paper is also determined to be old paper, and the style of the calligrapher himself is also very consistent.
If these three works were not for being too rare and shocking, they would have been determined to be the original on the spot.
However, Chen Feng did not show too much expectations for the three calligraphy and paintings. After all, the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment. As expected, the more prosperous money is, it is not so easy to make.
After all this, Chen Feng was not interested in making a fuss in the world of "The Loyal and Martyr Yang Family Generals". It was completely meaningless. As for changing the fate of the Yang Family Generals? Chen Feng did not have that interest or ability.
More importantly, his visa has been completed and he is going to Hong Kong.
"Huh, this first class is different. Before we even boarded the plane, the gap is revealed. The value of the money is spent." Chen Feng sat in the VIP standby room at the airport, tasting the drinks and snacks delivered by the beautiful flight attendant, and silently thought in his heart.
In the past half a month, in addition to going to the Northern Song Dynasty, he also exchanged 50,000 euros in the bank one after another, which was exchanged for RMB 300,000. Although it was not much, it was enough to spend before going to Hong Kong. So he made up his mind to enjoy it, so naturally he would not care about the little money of first-class air tickets.
After more than two hours of flight, the plane finally landed at Hong Kong International Airport and did not need to recognize the way, because the travel agency arranged for him the five-star Grand Hyatt Hotel and also arranged a vehicle pick-up service. So he just glanced outside the airport passage and saw the hotel driver holding a sign to pick him up.
At night, Chen Feng stood in front of the window of the hotel room, looking at the Victoria Harbor not far away, feeling this completely different land in Hangzhou, and couldn't help but feel a little confused. Where will his future point?
………………………………………
Chen Feng got up very early the next day. Although the bed in the hotel was soft and comfortable, he did not sleep well, but he was a little conscious of the bed.
When he woke up early, after breakfast, he quickly turned on his laptop and entered the world of the Zhongwei Yang family. At the home of this world, he took out two boxes of money that he had put in before coming to Hong Kong, and then contacted the hotel's car and arrived at the headquarters of Standard Chartered Bank in Central.
Standing at the magnificent Standard Chartered Bank Building, Chen Feng couldn't help feeling a little weak.
