Chapter 68

At this time, Zhao Bao held another yellowish porcelain plate in his hand.

The porcelain plate was about the size of a palm, and its dark yellow color was somewhat translucent when illuminated by the light. There were some tiny patterns on the surface of the plate, which looked like blossoming chrysanthemums.

There is also a seal printed on the bottom of the plate, but Li Bin is too far away to see what is written on the seal.

Zhao Bao's rare complexion was a bit dignified, and he turned the porcelain plate over and over in his hand to look at it, and his fingers were still carefully sanding the tiny patterns.

After five or six minutes, Zhao Bao stopped what he was doing, and looked around.

"This porcelain...is Song Dynasty porcelain."

The people around were suddenly in an uproar. The Song Dynasty porcelain is considered a very good item now, and every piece of Song Dynasty porcelain that is well preserved is worth a lot of money.

While Zhao Bao was talking, he looked at the porcelain plate in his hand, and he still took a few more glances at the seal on the bottom of the plate.

"This porcelain plate comes from an official kiln. As for the kiln, I can't tell." Zhao Bao smiled slightly: "Everyone can bid as much as they like."

As soon as Zhao Bao finished speaking, there was a sound of gasping for air all around.

Official kilns are very different from folk kilns. Most of the porcelain fired in folk kilns is mass-produced and sold as commodities, while there are not many porcelains fired in official kilns, and every kind of porcelain is a high-quality product.

If this dark yellow porcelain plate from the Song Dynasty was really an official kiln, its price would be more than double that of a private kiln.

"Mr. Zhao, is this porcelain really produced by the official kiln?" A woman next to Zhao Bao asked aloud.

Zhao Bao nodded silently with a smile on his face, everyone understood now.

"I bid 30 yuan, and I want this piece of porcelain!" Someone in the crowd offered the price.

"30? If it's produced by ordinary folk kilns, this price is not bad, but this is an official kiln, do you want to buy it for 30?"

A middle-aged beautiful woman said: "I bid 40."

All of a sudden, everyone shouted the price, and the price soared to 50 in a short period of time.

Li Bin watched with his eyelids jumping and his heart trembling. Li Bin scanned the dark yellow Song Dynasty porcelain plate and knew the specific information about it.

"The bronze Buddha before, but now this porcelain plate, which is only the size of a palm, is so valuable?" Looking at the scattered objects around, Li Bin slandered in his heart: "A small thing is worth half a house. This place is going to be wiped out."

With 10 yuan in his hand before, Li Bin thought that he was barely a rich man, but after arriving here, Li Bin realized that he was still a poor man.

The porcelain plate was finally bought for 65 yuan.

If this porcelain plate is sold in another place, it can be sold for an additional 20 million. However, people here are waiting to buy the item to resell it. After a certain price is added, these people will not bid.

At this time, Zhao Bao took another picture scroll in his hand, which was as long as an arm.

The scroll unfolded slowly in the hands of the two, and it was actually more than two meters long.

In the picture scroll, there are jagged rocks, flowing rivers and streams, forests and birds. It is a landscape painting.

Zhao Bao stood aside, first looking at the landscape in the scroll, and then at the inscription and seal on the side of the scroll.

After staring at it, Zhao Bao's expression became solemn.

He stretched out his hand to touch the frame of the picture scroll, and then stroked the rice paper of the picture scroll.

After several appraisals, the expression on Zhao Bao's face was uncertain. After standing there and thinking for a while, Zhao Bao took out a cylindrical lens from his arms, leaned down on the scroll and looked at it carefully.

That cylindrical lens, everyone who knows about antiques knows what it is. Looking at antiques to see treasures, there are some tiny textures that cannot be seen with the naked eye, so you need to use this thing.

Seeing that Zhao Bao actually took out this thing, the people present immediately became more nervous.

Being able to use this thing for Zhao Bao proves that this scroll is difficult to identify, and the more difficult it is to identify, the more likely it is to be precious.

Zhao Baofu leaned on the scroll, whether it was landscapes, forests, birds, or inscriptions and seals, he carefully looked at them bit by bit.

Twenty or ten minutes had passed, but the people around were not in a hurry, they were all looking forward to Zhao Bao's final appraisal. What kind of treasure is this scroll?
Li Bin stared at the scroll, with the scanned information in front of him.

After looking at it carefully for a while, Li Bin frowned and let out a sigh.

"This scroll..."

Li Bin's voice aroused the dissatisfaction of many people around, and they all looked over with frowns.

"Master Zhao is concentrating on appraising treasures, why are you making such noise?" There was doubt in those eyes.

Li Bin smiled apologetically to the surroundings and said nothing, but Li Bin still had some doubts in his eyes as he looked at the scroll.

After Zhao Bao stared at the scroll for a while, he finally raised his head.

Wiping off the sweat from his forehead, Zhao Bao had a smile on his face.

"I didn't expect to find a treasure this time, this scroll..."

Zhao Bao said, looking at the picture scroll, his face was full of excitement.

"Master Zhao, tell me quickly and don't be fooled, what kind of treasure is this?" Someone around couldn't bear it anymore and asked Zhao Bao aloud.

"This picture of mountains, forests, water and streams..." Zhao Bao looked around: "You must know how to judge the value of calligraphy and painting?"

"I know, I know." Some people around replied: "To determine the value of a calligraphy and painting, one depends on the year of the calligraphy and painting, and the other depends on who the author of the calligraphy and painting is."

"Generally speaking, the longer the age and the more famous the author, the higher the value of the calligraphy and painting."

Zhao Bao smiled: "This calligraphy and painting is not very old, it should be 300 years ago."

From time to time, some people in the crowd nodded in agreement. This picture scroll is so well preserved, and the rice paper is as white as snow. At first glance, it cannot be an extremely old painting.

"Master Zhao, please tell me quickly, could it be that this scroll was made by a famous modern master?" A young man asked.

Zhao Bao looked around: "I don't know if anyone knows Dr. Jing?"

"Doctor Jing?"

"Doctor Jing..." Everyone shook their heads.

An old man on crutches suddenly came closer: "This Doctor Jing...but that Doctor Jing who doesn't paint anything else but only landscapes?"

Zhao Bao nodded: "The old man is right. Doctor Jing is a famous landscape painter in modern times. He once had a painting that has been passed down through the ages."

"Could this painting... be that painting that has been passed down through the ages?" The people around were surprised, and were filled with shock when they looked at the painting.

"Everyone is wrong. This painting is not the famous work of Dr. Jing." Zhao Bao shook his head and smiled lowly: "Although it is not the one that has been famous for a long time, the value of this painting is also considerable."

"Doctor Jing is a well-known master of modern paintings, so the collection value of this painting can be imagined." Zhao Bao waved his hand: "Everyone can bid, and I hope everyone will not let this painting become dusty."
