Chapter 5 The Baby Who Opens the Door

Ten minutes later, Li Yi handed the savings card to the boss.

"Boss, this one is worth another 15,000."

The boss there had already taken out both bowls, and waited for him to check and pack them. When he saw him handing over the card and paying, he quickly took the card swiper, but it was done in half a minute.

Li Yi checked and found that the bowl was not dropped. He was in a happy mood and chatted with the boss while watching the boss packing.

"Boss, what gift is it? This is a big business worth 20,000 yuan..."

The boss sweated for a while, looked up and grabbed a white porcelain pen holder on the counter.

"I wish the boss's business is like this mountain, and one mountain is higher than the other!"

Li Yi took it and took it back. This thing is just something, but he still thinks it takes up space...

Li Yi held the box wrapped by the boss and turned around and left the store. While walking, he was thinking about who to ask for help. If he didn't know that Wang Keshou was such a person, he could still ask him for help. Now, forget it, if you don't bother with the second master, you'd better bother Uncle Bai.

I rushed to the Bai Qianye store a few steps away and saw that I was very happy. The three of them were eating hot.

"I'm not as good as I'm here for a long time. Haha, I'm hungry! Brother Wang, add some dishes and chopsticks!"

Bai Qianye saw that it was Li Yi, and laughed and scolded.

"You kid, you don't look for a job well after graduation. Why are you wandering around the market all day long?"

Wang He was even more polite and wanted to take the box from Li Yi's arms up.

"You can see that you're here, what else can I bring? Thank you!"

After a burst of laughter and having enough food and drink, Li Yi invited Bai Qianye to the small office, carefully took out one of the bowls, and asked:

"Uncle Bai, please help me see how much this thing is worth?"

Bai Qianye was stunned for a moment when he saw Li Yi taking out a pastel bowl from the box and asked:

"You boy, what did you charge in the market? How much does it cost?"

"It's not expensive, it's only more than 10,000."

"More than 10,000? You... Although I don't understand porcelain, you see the patterns and colors of this bowl are too bright, too new, and too perfect. You are probably cheated by someone!"

"It's a trick? It's not that. I feel this bowl at a glance. Look at the body, the glaze, and the painter... I guess everyone thinks it's new and gorgeous, so I picked up such a big leak!"

Bai Qianye looks very iron-out,

"Just as the traffic of people in the market, I don't know how many people have plowed many times in a day, but you only have two knives and you still get a bargain! You, what do you want me to say about you!"

Li Yi smiled and thought to himself, if it weren't for the jade pendant you brought back yesterday, I would agree with you 120 times, but with this jade pendant... I can't say this, I can only find opportunities to repay you in the future.

After pestering for a while, Bai Qianye finally agreed to help him find someone to check it out. Li Yi wrapped the things, greeted Wang He and another clerk Qian Ning, and followed Bai Qianye and left happily.

Bai Qianye led Li Yi all the way to the east gate. On the way, he had to tell him a few words that the person he would meet later was a master. No matter what comments he gave, he must be polite and not be allowed to get angry.

Li Yi is indecisive and said to himself, "Master is better." I'm afraid that what you are looking for is not a master, so I'm just a mistake!"

The two of them came to the B-row store near the East Gate. Bai Qianye didn't even look at it, so he stepped into one of them.

This is a big store, with only three stores in the storefront. Adding to the second floor, this scale is one of the best in the french market.

"Yeah, Brother Bai, what wind blows you?"

As soon as he walked into the store, a middle-aged man wearing a long robe and thin body came up to meet him. Bai Qianye smiled and bowed and asked:

"Cunzhi, is Mr. Chang in the store? My little nephew just received something and wanted Mr. Chang to help him see it."

The middle-aged man named Cunzhi nodded and smiled:

"It's still there, but if there are guests, I'll help you go up and ask, what do you want to see?"

"A pair of bowls are said to be pastels from the Daoguang period."

"Okay, wait a moment."

Seeing Cunzhi go upstairs, Li Yi looked around the store with a box in his arms. The store is really big. The three stores are nearly 200 square meters in total and are divided into three areas. One is calligraphy and painting, the other is porcelain, and the most extensive area is various miscellaneous antiques, with several jade counters mixed in it.

"Old Chang's full name is Chang Huaizhi. He is an expert in porcelain and calligraphy and painting. He worked in the Forbidden City in his early years. Later, he couldn't stand the constraints and opened this store by himself. Look, this is called business. Our second floor has a yearly turnover of less than one-tenth of others. The one named Liu Cunzhi just now followed Chang Laogan from the beginning, and now his net worth is about tens of millions."

Bai Qianye quietly explained to Li Yi that Li Yi was constantly shocked when he saw the layout of the store. The size of the store is just a few million yuan a year, which may not be enough. In addition to the things in the store, Master Chang's net worth must be several hundred million yuan?

"I'm afraid Mr. Chang can't take out several hundred million, but if he sells all his collections, let alone hundreds of millions, I guess he may not be able to make a living for one hundred million..."

Li Yi nodded, let alone hundreds of millions, millions were counted in numbers that he never dared to think about before, but now he has a spiritual card and gives him decades of time, maybe he can create such an antique kingdom.

After a while, the two saw Liu Cunzhi standing at the stairs on the second floor waving at them.

"Old Chang asked you to go up. His friend also happened to want to find a suitable piece of porcelain. If you catch up, you will help you see it. Lao Bai, is your thing okay?"

Bai Qianye smiled bitterly, no problem? The problem is big. Brother is driving the duck to put it on the shelves, and there is nothing he can do if someone asks him!

The two followed Liu Cunzhi into a guest room on the second floor. An old man with white hair and beard and rosy face stood up with a smile.

"Brother Qianye is a rare guest. The porcelain you can like must be not ordinary. Take it out quickly and let us see it."

Li Yi noticed that behind Mr. Chang was a beautiful young woman, who was about 30 years old, wearing a small suit with a large white lapel and light-colored trousers, and her figure was slightly plump. Her handsome melon-shaped face seemed to be mixed with a hint of charm and charm, which was very stunning.

"This is Mo Jinxuan, Teacher Mo, a researcher at the Capital Museum. Her porcelain appreciation level is higher than mine. It is better to come early than I am. It is better to come by chance. Let's take a look together."

Mo Jinxuan smiled and said politely. Several people sat down. Li Yi opened the box, carefully took out the porcelain bowl and placed it on the coffee table.

Chang Huaizhi and Mo Jinxuan looked at each other, and each person picked up a porcelain bowl. After a rough look, the two of them praised in unison:

"nice one!"

When Bai Qianye heard this, he looked at Li Yi with a calm expression and thought to himself that this kid is quite capable of pretending, and asked:

"Old Mr. Chang, Teacher Mo, so, is this pair of pastel bowls real?"

Mr. Chang nodded, "It's not just true, it's a fine product that is in one place!"

"Let's look at the text and information first. The official kilns in the Daoguang period were mostly blue and white styles of the six-character and three-line seal script, and they like to imitate the Yongzheng style, but the fonts are large, the strokes are soft and weak, and it is easier to distinguish them. Therefore, from the text and information perspective, it is not a big problem to define this period."

"After the late Ming Dynasty, as Western missionaries served in the palace, the west wind spread eastward, bringing the style of Western art into China, and some porcelains that integrate the characteristics of Chinese and Western art appeared, and enamel porcelain is the most famous one."

"The outer wall pattern of this bowl is influenced by the decoration of the enamel utensils. It is made of coral red color as the ground. It is made of baroque style rolled branches, and lemon yellow glaze is applied inside. The center of the consecration is painted with folded branches and peony patterns, yellow, green, and colorful embellishments of the flower core. The image is vivid and realistic. It is a treasure with a big door opening!"
