The years when I was reborn as a giant in the antique world
Chapter 73 Jinjiang Genuine Edition
Erasing the odds, Yunzhou spent 4500 yuan to collect 76 pieces of famille rose and multicolored porcelain, and went to the next booth.
After visiting several booths in a row, the quality of broken porcelain pieces is good. Almost every booth can be assembled into several complete pieces, most of which are from the third generation of Qing Dynasty.
For example, the Qing Kangxi folk kiln blue and white general jar, Qing Yongzheng official kiln red glaze small bowl, Qing Qianlong official kiln multicolored porcelain bowl, the young man naturally bought them all without hesitation.
Boxes of broken porcelain were piled up together, and because they were not important items, they were put aside first, and let a stall owner who was not in a hurry to go back take care of them.
"Old Hu, why did you close the stall so early?"
The stall owner on the opposite side had just laid out his stall and was ready to do business, but in the blink of an eye, the stall owners who came with him all started packing up the mats, and they couldn't help showing surprise.
"It's all sold out." Lao Hu chuckled, picked up Mazza and planned to have breakfast.
"Is anyone buying your broken tiles?" The stall owner's eyes widened suddenly, his face full of disbelief.
"A good-looking young man bought it. The price is very generous. We don't know what to use it for." Old Hu said.
He touched the dozens of red bills that were bulging in his pocket, and smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, "You should be busy, I will come back after eating some pancakes."
This time, he will add double eggs, double ham, and double tenderloin to his pancakes. If you eat more hearty, good things come in pairs.
Lao Hu hummed a little tune while carrying the horse, and left cheerfully.
"The sun came out from the west today? Someone bought even the broken porcelain pieces, so lucky." The stall owner muttered, the sourness in his voice couldn't be stopped.
When broken porcelain pieces became treasures, what a fool, the objects on his booth are the treasures.
"Boss, how do you sell this string of Xingyue Bodhi?"
"Six pieces (600)."
"Too expensive, one dollar five (150)."
"Not for sale."
The stall owner rolled his eyes in his heart, he had to pay 200 for the goods, and he paid 150, which was a good idea.
Seeing the middle-aged man leave without looking back, the stall owner sighed, why is it so difficult for him to start a business?
Lao Hu's booth has accumulated a lot of broken porcelain pieces, and he got thousands of them at once, which is more enviable than the retirement salary of Officer Zhang, who everyone envied.
Yun Zhou looked at the stalls one by one. After searching for seven or eight hundred pieces of broken porcelain, large and small, of various categories, he found that there were many more broken porcelain pieces along the way.
The space in the trunk of a private car is limited, so we carefully selected the remaining booths.
At first, they only chose official kilns with base models and exquisitely fired folk kilns, and later they only picked broken pieces that can be assembled into more than half of the porcelain or a whole piece of porcelain.
"Please calculate the price for these 26 pieces."
"Yes, that's all, a total of 17 pieces of multicolored porcelain, how much?"
……
The behavior of the young man like a boy spreading money alarmed the people on the whole street on the left.
"Who is that young man, who is here to collect broken porcelain pieces?"
"Maybe it's a museum that collects porcelain specimens. Whatever it is, just make money."
"I went to look a few times, and the first few stalls are empty!"
"Hey, I should have put the booth in the front—"
There was a lot of discussion among the people, and many people sighed.
Although it cannot be said that every household in the Porcelain Capital has ancient porcelain pieces, they are not valuable items. I really didn't expect to be able to make money from this one day.
They stretched their necks and watched curiously, eagerly looking forward to the arrival of each other. A few stall owners who were left behind immediately went home to collect the broken porcelain pieces, trying to sell more this time.
Yun Zhou walked to the booth in the middle and picked up a piece of white porcelain that was as thin as paper.
The surface of the porcelain piece has obvious opacity feeling, and the glaze is extremely smooth and radiant, giving people a soft, sweet and clean feeling.You can feel the extremely delicate fetal texture by touching it with your hands, and the boy couldn't help but slightly opened his eyes wide.
It is actually a sweet white glaze from the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty!
He quickly rummaged through a pile of broken porcelain pieces, and soon found eight other pieces of shiny white porcelain that were so thin that they were half-embroidered, and pieced them together into a complete tall bowl with sweet white glaze and four seasons flowers engraved in dark.
The whole body of the bowl is sweet white glaze color, the tire quality is fine and the glaze surface is clean.
The inside of the bowl is engraved with dark patterns of flowers. The patterns are delicate and light, and they flicker under the illumination of the flashlight, giving a sense of simplicity and elegance.The two-line four-character inscription "Yongle Nianzhi" is written in the center, and the workmanship is extremely exquisite.
Yun Zhou was very excited when he thought of the Yongle sweet white glazed porcelain that he saw at Jiahe Auction House and Grandpa Du's house.
At that time, he liked the texture of "white as cream, plain like snow", but the exquisitely crafted sweet white glazed porcelain often fetched millions of dollars in auction houses, so he was not willing to take it.
I didn't expect to meet here, it was a surprise!
When it is restored, it will be a well-deserved masterpiece.
"These are all."
Yun Zhou smiled slightly, revealing two small dimples on his cheeks, his eyes were as bright as the moon in the sky.
"okay."
The stall owner was overjoyed to help him wrap it up. It is refreshing to do business with such a proud customer.
After doing this business, he can not only close the stall early to catch up on sleep, but also buy two bottles of good wine to enjoy.
Yun Zhou was also very happy. He bought Yongle sweet white glazed porcelain worth more than 2000 million yuan for only 500 yuan, and also included other monochrome glazed porcelain pieces as gifts. It is really a good deal.
Walking along the street, stopping and stopping at every stall selling broken porcelain pieces, the young man picked out broken porcelain pieces like he was constantly discovering treasures, and never tired of it.
In addition to the Yongle sweet white glaze, he also found blue and white porcelain pieces from various Ming dynasties such as Hongwu, Xuande, Zhengtong, Hongzhi, and Zhengde, as well as well-preserved blue and white pieces from the Yuan Dynasty, and even broken porcelain from the five famous kilns "Jun Kiln" in the Song Dynasty. piece!
It is indeed a ghost market in the porcelain capital. The stall owners come from all over the world, and you can find all kinds of broken porcelain here.
As the saying goes, even if you have a lot of money, you can't compete with Jun Kiln.
Jun kiln changes color for the kiln, "into the kiln, one color, out of the kiln, thousands of colors" is used to describe the color change of Jun kiln.
Holding the rose and purple Jun kiln porcelain in his hand, Yunzhou thought of the Qing Qianlong kiln-transformed glaze piercing ear vase that he had bought at the auction house. It is the gradient color produced by the kiln, which is very beautiful.
But the rose-purple color in front of me is even more magnificent, and the rose-red glaze is scattered on the sky-blue base glaze, which is bright and gorgeous like a sunset.
Kiln changes have always been difficult to control, but the Jun kiln at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty brought its craftsmanship to the extreme.
Whether it is the expression of color and various textures, no one can imitate the performance technology that can control the kiln transformation and do whatever you want. Unfortunately, this technology has long been lost.
Putting the broken porcelain pieces in his bag, Yun Zhou's eyebrows and eyes were curved into beautiful arcs, and the villain in his heart was also circling excitedly in his mind, the harvest of coming to J City this time is simply too great!
Unknowingly, the rising sun and the twilight of the morning dyed the earth with bright colors.
The number of people in the ghost market has completely increased. The pedestrians on the road are rubbing against each other, and it is extremely crowded. There is a flow of people coming and going, and it is more lively than the market.
Yun Zhou glanced at his watch, it was almost 6 o'clock, he looked at these broken porcelain pieces for two hours, but there was no trace of fatigue on his face.
In fact, his legs were already a little numb, but the excitement and joy in his heart suppressed the numbness and fatigue of his body, making him look radiant.
The young man stood and stomped his feet lightly. He raised his eyes and looked ahead. There were only seven or eight booths left, so he had to hold on.
"Boss, come and take a look at my broken porcelain pieces. Besides these, I brought all the...huh from home." A middle-aged woman greeted out of breath.
She was dressed plainly, her face was reddish, and there was sweat on her forehead. It was obvious that she had just returned.
She took out a nylon bag from behind, and poured out more than 300 tiles in a clatter, which were still stained with dirt, and she hadn't had time to clean them.
"Look...if you buy more, it will be cheaper for you."
The middle-aged woman looked hopefully at the young man with clean eyebrows and outstanding temperament, her expression was a little reserved.
My husband has been in a downturn in the factory recently, and has not been able to pay wages for two months; but the family still has two children to support, and school, food and clothing are all expenses.
The family's savings are not much, and now they have bottomed out, so they have to come to the ghost market to set up a stall to make some money.
Just now, seeing this rich young man pay thousands of dollars for a move, a glimmer of hope sprouted in his heart, and he hurried home to bring all the remaining broken porcelain pieces, sweating hotly in a hurry.
Yun Zhou squatted down, his white fingertips were stained with dirt from touching the broken porcelain all the time, but his slender fingers were still extraordinarily beautiful, even an action of flipping the porcelain was pleasing to the eye.
After seeing so many ancient porcelains, he took a quick look and found that these broken porcelain pieces were mainly fired in folk kilns, and they were all fired in the late Qing Dynasty, and there were not many high-quality goods.
More than 300 pieces of broken porcelain have not been cleaned and screened, and they are piled up on the plastic sheet, which is dazzling.
In particular, all the tiles on the stalls along the way were neatly arranged, and it seemed particularly messy here.
If he had just come here, he might not be too picky, and would just take it away, just to exercise his recovery ability.
But up to now, he has collected more than 1000 pieces of broken porcelain, from Tang and Song to Ming and Qing Dynasties. There are many official kilns, and there is no shortage of private kilns.
Yun Zhou frowned slightly, and after looking around for five or six minutes, he saw only one piece of complete utensil—a small blue and white bowl with a picture of the Eight Immortals from the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty.It was originally a pair, but unfortunately there is only one.
He picked out the corresponding eight pieces, added a few more pieces, rubbed his slightly numb legs, and planned to leave after cleaning up.
At this time, the middle-aged woman handed over a Maza and a bottle of mineral water at the right time. Her attitude was extremely earnest, which made the boy a little embarrassed.
"Thank you."
His legs were really numb. Yun Zhou sat down by the booth to rest, stretched his long legs, unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle and drank most of the bottle.
I haven't drank water for more than two hours. Just now I was too focused and didn't respond. When I stopped, my throat felt dry. Drinking water will make it better.
Eat people with short mouths, and take people softly.
The young man turned his eyes to the pile of broken porcelain pieces, and the middle-aged woman was spreading them out deftly. He thought about looking at them later, well, at best, he could pick more pieces.
After resting for more than ten minutes, Yunzhou felt much better, so he squatted down and continued to search among the broken porcelain.
The scattered pieces are easier to check. He glanced around the booth and suddenly saw a piece of broken porcelain with relatively rare patterns.
Huh, what is this?
He picked up this piece of broken porcelain half the size of a palm. The carcass was thin and delicate. A horse's head was drawn on it, the mouth was slightly open, and the mane on the back was fluttering in the wind. The bright yellow color was a pattern of Pegasus.
The Pegasus pattern is not common, and it is said to have been born in the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty.Because Zheng He's common surname is Ma, Ma was born with "two wings" and was sent to the West by imperial decree.
It occasionally appeared on porcelain in the mid-Ming Dynasty, usually accompanied by textures such as conch spirals and cross-sea patterns, and generally only painted on blue-and-white porcelain.
The pattern on the broken porcelain in front of Yunzhou is obviously not blue and white, but a combination of underglaze blue and overglaze color, with blue and white strokes, filled with color inside and fired for a second time.
Such colors and patterns reminded him of a familiar name—Chenghua Doucai!
Thinking of this, the boy's heart beat a little faster, and he no longer felt troubled, and began to rummage through the broken porcelain pieces.
After more than ten minutes, he finally found five other broken pieces of porcelain similar to this one, and put together more than half of a small pot with a diameter of about eight centimeters.
The body of the tank is decorated with Pegasus pattern, and the yellow Pegasus comes on the waves with fluttering mane, which is flexible and vivid; the bottom is painted with seawater river cliffs and cloud patterns, and the seawater is layered with green colors, with rough waves and splashing waves.
The soles of the feet are decorated with yellow banana leaf patterns, forming a circle, and the bottom part is written with the word "sky" in blue and white. The single word has no frame and has a hazy texture.
Sea animal patterns such as flying horses and flying elephants are typical decorative patterns in Chenghua imperial kilns, and they are very rare, and there are very few existing ones.
Coupled with the word 'sky' at the bottom, the answer is ready to come out——
This is the Chenghua Doucai Tianzi Jar which is as precious as the Chicken Crock Cup!
Thinking of this, even Yun Zhou couldn't help being stunned.
Ming Chenghua is famous for its fighting colors. When it comes to Chenghua fighting colors, the chicken bowl cup is the first thing that comes to mind.At J's auction, a small Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup once sold for a sky-high price of 2.3 million yuan, which shocked everyone.
At present, there are only 19 existing chicken cups in the world, 15 are in museums, and 4 are in private collections.
However, there is another type of Chenghua Doucai that is even more precious than the chicken bowl cup, and that is the Chenghua Doucai Tianzi Jar!
It is said that there are only 12 complete cups in the world, which are even rarer than chicken cups in terms of quantity.
Even if it is a complete container, the lid is mostly made afterward. It is really rare for a Tianzi jar with a lid to be preserved in a history of more than 500 years.
The only Chenghua Doucai Tianzi Jar sold at an auction house is a remnant vessel with no cover and the rim is completely damaged.
But even so, the price of more than 20 million was sold 1000 years ago, which is hard to estimate now.
Because it was only photographed once, it was difficult to find traces except for major museums afterwards.
Some experts have researched that the Tianzi jar and the chicken bowl cup are used together, the Tianzi jar is a container for wine, and the chicken bowl cup is a container for drinking, both of which are dedicated to the emperor.
Of course, the authenticity cannot be tested, but the two are indeed the pinnacle of Chenghua Doucai, and later generations can no longer imitate such exquisite porcelain.
Yun Zhou came back to his senses, although the Tianzi pot in front of him was only half a broken weapon, its value was still immeasurable.
Seeing the middle-aged woman looking at him with yearning eyes, the young man restrained his excitement and put the tile back, and said with a smile, "I want all of these."
"More than 300 pieces... all of them?" The other party's eyes were full of surprise and joy.
"Well, how much?"
The middle-aged woman's heart was pounding, and she finally gritted her teeth, "Just take a piece of three hairs, wipe off the odds, and make up the whole."
1 yuan.
This is a huge sum at stalls selling broken porcelain pieces, and many porcelain and jade wares cannot be sold at this price.
As soon as she said it, she regretted it. Her family is really difficult, but what does it have to do with others?
I bought all her broken porcelain at once. Where can such a proud customer find it, it should be cheaper.
"or--"
Just when she was about to lower the price, the young man's voice sounded like the sound of heaven, "Okay, I'll transfer the money over."
"Okay, thank you, thank you very much."
Tears welled up in the eyes of the middle-aged woman, and she looked at Yun Zhou with gratitude.
With this money, plus her monthly salary, the province can last at least half a year, and the child's tuition is also covered.
"...Ah, you're welcome."
Yun Zhou was a little embarrassed, but he actually took advantage of it.
The broken porcelain pieces in the whole street were searched almost. After receiving a tip of 200 yuan, the stall owner Jin Qiang happily helped him find a small cart and pushed it to the place where the Audi was parked.
Yun Zhou opened the trunk and put all the crates of broken porcelain into it, the whole space was almost full.
Looking at the shards of broken porcelain in front of him, the young man was extremely satisfied.
Perhaps for others, these broken pieces of porcelain are worthless at all, but for him they are rare treasures, which are extremely important for both restoration and collection of porcelain.
He calculated that this time he spent more than 4 yuan in total and bought more than 1500 pieces of broken porcelain, which was still very cheap. After all, there were at least dozens of pieces of official kiln porcelain in it, and some were orphaned.
When Jin Qiang saw that he had collected so many pieces of porcelain, he rolled his eyes and felt that there was an additional business, "Boss, there are more pieces of porcelain in our porcelain capital. Will you still accept them in the future?"
"I'll collect it." Yun Zhou thought for a while and said.
After the summer vacation, he has two months to repair the porcelain. Except for the relatively large incomplete ones, the others should be easier.
"Then I'll collect it for you in the future, so that you don't have to come so far." Jin Qiang saw the license plate number of Audi, which is far enough from here.
"Alright." Yun Zhou nodded, "I don't need it for a few months, and I will collect it once every three months."
He stated his request again, and the two exchanged contact information.
Although Jin Qiang himself doesn't understand it very well, he has friends who understand it, and it doesn't take much time. He just comes to the ghost market every month to pick something, and he can earn extra money.
After Yun Zhou had done all this, the purpose of coming to Porcelain Capital had been achieved, so he followed the flow of people to the street on the right to take a look.
The stalls in the ghost market have everything you need, all kinds of figurines, comic books, toys, and card game cards. It's like a childhood dream.
A smile appeared on the young man's face unconsciously, he walked and looked, and finally stopped in front of a booth selling seals.
It wasn't that he wanted to stop, but the little silver dragon on his wrist straightened up and pulled his wrist with his tail. Yun Zhou obeyed his wishes and squatted down in front of the booth.
After visiting several booths in a row, the quality of broken porcelain pieces is good. Almost every booth can be assembled into several complete pieces, most of which are from the third generation of Qing Dynasty.
For example, the Qing Kangxi folk kiln blue and white general jar, Qing Yongzheng official kiln red glaze small bowl, Qing Qianlong official kiln multicolored porcelain bowl, the young man naturally bought them all without hesitation.
Boxes of broken porcelain were piled up together, and because they were not important items, they were put aside first, and let a stall owner who was not in a hurry to go back take care of them.
"Old Hu, why did you close the stall so early?"
The stall owner on the opposite side had just laid out his stall and was ready to do business, but in the blink of an eye, the stall owners who came with him all started packing up the mats, and they couldn't help showing surprise.
"It's all sold out." Lao Hu chuckled, picked up Mazza and planned to have breakfast.
"Is anyone buying your broken tiles?" The stall owner's eyes widened suddenly, his face full of disbelief.
"A good-looking young man bought it. The price is very generous. We don't know what to use it for." Old Hu said.
He touched the dozens of red bills that were bulging in his pocket, and smiled so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, "You should be busy, I will come back after eating some pancakes."
This time, he will add double eggs, double ham, and double tenderloin to his pancakes. If you eat more hearty, good things come in pairs.
Lao Hu hummed a little tune while carrying the horse, and left cheerfully.
"The sun came out from the west today? Someone bought even the broken porcelain pieces, so lucky." The stall owner muttered, the sourness in his voice couldn't be stopped.
When broken porcelain pieces became treasures, what a fool, the objects on his booth are the treasures.
"Boss, how do you sell this string of Xingyue Bodhi?"
"Six pieces (600)."
"Too expensive, one dollar five (150)."
"Not for sale."
The stall owner rolled his eyes in his heart, he had to pay 200 for the goods, and he paid 150, which was a good idea.
Seeing the middle-aged man leave without looking back, the stall owner sighed, why is it so difficult for him to start a business?
Lao Hu's booth has accumulated a lot of broken porcelain pieces, and he got thousands of them at once, which is more enviable than the retirement salary of Officer Zhang, who everyone envied.
Yun Zhou looked at the stalls one by one. After searching for seven or eight hundred pieces of broken porcelain, large and small, of various categories, he found that there were many more broken porcelain pieces along the way.
The space in the trunk of a private car is limited, so we carefully selected the remaining booths.
At first, they only chose official kilns with base models and exquisitely fired folk kilns, and later they only picked broken pieces that can be assembled into more than half of the porcelain or a whole piece of porcelain.
"Please calculate the price for these 26 pieces."
"Yes, that's all, a total of 17 pieces of multicolored porcelain, how much?"
……
The behavior of the young man like a boy spreading money alarmed the people on the whole street on the left.
"Who is that young man, who is here to collect broken porcelain pieces?"
"Maybe it's a museum that collects porcelain specimens. Whatever it is, just make money."
"I went to look a few times, and the first few stalls are empty!"
"Hey, I should have put the booth in the front—"
There was a lot of discussion among the people, and many people sighed.
Although it cannot be said that every household in the Porcelain Capital has ancient porcelain pieces, they are not valuable items. I really didn't expect to be able to make money from this one day.
They stretched their necks and watched curiously, eagerly looking forward to the arrival of each other. A few stall owners who were left behind immediately went home to collect the broken porcelain pieces, trying to sell more this time.

Yun Zhou was also very happy. He bought Yongle sweet white glazed porcelain worth more than 2000 million yuan for only 500 yuan, and also included other monochrome glazed porcelain pieces as gifts. It is really a good deal.
Walking along the street, stopping and stopping at every stall selling broken porcelain pieces, the young man picked out broken porcelain pieces like he was constantly discovering treasures, and never tired of it.
In addition to the Yongle sweet white glaze, he also found blue and white porcelain pieces from various Ming dynasties such as Hongwu, Xuande, Zhengtong, Hongzhi, and Zhengde, as well as well-preserved blue and white pieces from the Yuan Dynasty, and even broken porcelain from the five famous kilns "Jun Kiln" in the Song Dynasty. piece!
It is indeed a ghost market in the porcelain capital. The stall owners come from all over the world, and you can find all kinds of broken porcelain here.
As the saying goes, even if you have a lot of money, you can't compete with Jun Kiln.
Jun kiln changes color for the kiln, "into the kiln, one color, out of the kiln, thousands of colors" is used to describe the color change of Jun kiln.
Holding the rose and purple Jun kiln porcelain in his hand, Yunzhou thought of the Qing Qianlong kiln-transformed glaze piercing ear vase that he had bought at the auction house. It is the gradient color produced by the kiln, which is very beautiful.
But the rose-purple color in front of me is even more magnificent, and the rose-red glaze is scattered on the sky-blue base glaze, which is bright and gorgeous like a sunset.
Kiln changes have always been difficult to control, but the Jun kiln at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty brought its craftsmanship to the extreme.
Whether it is the expression of color and various textures, no one can imitate the performance technology that can control the kiln transformation and do whatever you want. Unfortunately, this technology has long been lost.

The scattered pieces are easier to check. He glanced around the booth and suddenly saw a piece of broken porcelain with relatively rare patterns.
Huh, what is this?
He picked up this piece of broken porcelain half the size of a palm. The carcass was thin and delicate. A horse's head was drawn on it, the mouth was slightly open, and the mane on the back was fluttering in the wind. The bright yellow color was a pattern of Pegasus.

The pattern on the broken porcelain in front of Yunzhou is obviously not blue and white, but a combination of underglaze blue and overglaze color, with blue and white strokes, filled with color inside and fired for a second time.
Such colors and patterns reminded him of a familiar name—Chenghua Doucai!
Thinking of this, the boy's heart beat a little faster, and he no longer felt troubled, and began to rummage through the broken porcelain pieces.
After more than ten minutes, he finally found five other broken pieces of porcelain similar to this one, and put together more than half of a small pot with a diameter of about eight centimeters.
The body of the tank is decorated with Pegasus pattern, and the yellow Pegasus comes on the waves with fluttering mane, which is flexible and vivid; the bottom is painted with seawater river cliffs and cloud patterns, and the seawater is layered with green colors, with rough waves and splashing waves.
The soles of the feet are decorated with yellow banana leaf patterns, forming a circle, and the bottom part is written with the word "sky" in blue and white. The single word has no frame and has a hazy texture.
Sea animal patterns such as flying horses and flying elephants are typical decorative patterns in Chenghua imperial kilns, and they are very rare, and there are very few existing ones.
Coupled with the word 'sky' at the bottom, the answer is ready to come out——
This is the Chenghua Doucai Tianzi Jar which is as precious as the Chicken Crock Cup!
Thinking of this, even Yun Zhou couldn't help being stunned.
Ming Chenghua is famous for its fighting colors. When it comes to Chenghua fighting colors, the chicken bowl cup is the first thing that comes to mind.At J's auction, a small Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup once sold for a sky-high price of 2.3 million yuan, which shocked everyone.
At present, there are only 19 existing chicken cups in the world, 15 are in museums, and 4 are in private collections.
However, there is another type of Chenghua Doucai that is even more precious than the chicken bowl cup, and that is the Chenghua Doucai Tianzi Jar!
It is said that there are only 12 complete cups in the world, which are even rarer than chicken cups in terms of quantity.
Even if it is a complete container, the lid is mostly made afterward. It is really rare for a Tianzi jar with a lid to be preserved in a history of more than 500 years.
The only Chenghua Doucai Tianzi Jar sold at an auction house is a remnant vessel with no cover and the rim is completely damaged.
But even so, the price of more than 20 million was sold 1000 years ago, which is hard to estimate now.
Because it was only photographed once, it was difficult to find traces except for major museums afterwards.
Some experts have researched that the Tianzi jar and the chicken bowl cup are used together, the Tianzi jar is a container for wine, and the chicken bowl cup is a container for drinking, both of which are dedicated to the emperor.
Of course, the authenticity cannot be tested, but the two are indeed the pinnacle of Chenghua Doucai, and later generations can no longer imitate such exquisite porcelain.
Yun Zhou came back to his senses, although the Tianzi pot in front of him was only half a broken weapon, its value was still immeasurable.
Seeing the middle-aged woman looking at him with yearning eyes, the young man restrained his excitement and put the tile back, and said with a smile, "I want all of these."
"More than 300 pieces... all of them?" The other party's eyes were full of surprise and joy.
"Well, how much?"
The middle-aged woman's heart was pounding, and she finally gritted her teeth, "Just take a piece of three hairs, wipe off the odds, and make up the whole."
1 yuan.
This is a huge sum at stalls selling broken porcelain pieces, and many porcelain and jade wares cannot be sold at this price.
As soon as she said it, she regretted it. Her family is really difficult, but what does it have to do with others?
I bought all her broken porcelain at once. Where can such a proud customer find it, it should be cheaper.
"or--"
Just when she was about to lower the price, the young man's voice sounded like the sound of heaven, "Okay, I'll transfer the money over."
"Okay, thank you, thank you very much."
Tears welled up in the eyes of the middle-aged woman, and she looked at Yun Zhou with gratitude.
With this money, plus her monthly salary, the province can last at least half a year, and the child's tuition is also covered.
"...Ah, you're welcome."
Yun Zhou was a little embarrassed, but he actually took advantage of it.
The broken porcelain pieces in the whole street were searched almost. After receiving a tip of 200 yuan, the stall owner Jin Qiang happily helped him find a small cart and pushed it to the place where the Audi was parked.
Yun Zhou opened the trunk and put all the crates of broken porcelain into it, the whole space was almost full.
Looking at the shards of broken porcelain in front of him, the young man was extremely satisfied.
Perhaps for others, these broken pieces of porcelain are worthless at all, but for him they are rare treasures, which are extremely important for both restoration and collection of porcelain.
He calculated that this time he spent more than 4 yuan in total and bought more than 1500 pieces of broken porcelain, which was still very cheap. After all, there were at least dozens of pieces of official kiln porcelain in it, and some were orphaned.
When Jin Qiang saw that he had collected so many pieces of porcelain, he rolled his eyes and felt that there was an additional business, "Boss, there are more pieces of porcelain in our porcelain capital. Will you still accept them in the future?"
"I'll collect it." Yun Zhou thought for a while and said.
After the summer vacation, he has two months to repair the porcelain. Except for the relatively large incomplete ones, the others should be easier.
"Then I'll collect it for you in the future, so that you don't have to come so far." Jin Qiang saw the license plate number of Audi, which is far enough from here.
"Alright." Yun Zhou nodded, "I don't need it for a few months, and I will collect it once every three months."
He stated his request again, and the two exchanged contact information.
Although Jin Qiang himself doesn't understand it very well, he has friends who understand it, and it doesn't take much time. He just comes to the ghost market every month to pick something, and he can earn extra money.
After Yun Zhou had done all this, the purpose of coming to Porcelain Capital had been achieved, so he followed the flow of people to the street on the right to take a look.
The stalls in the ghost market have everything you need, all kinds of figurines, comic books, toys, and card game cards. It's like a childhood dream.
A smile appeared on the young man's face unconsciously, he walked and looked, and finally stopped in front of a booth selling seals.
It wasn't that he wanted to stop, but the little silver dragon on his wrist straightened up and pulled his wrist with his tail. Yun Zhou obeyed his wishes and squatted down in front of the booth.
