Chapter 2053 Ebony Chair
Lu Fei spoke slowly, and Murray's face became increasingly ugly.
"Mr. Lu Fei, are you so sure these are fakes?" Murray asked.
"hehe!"
"It seems that all the words I just said were in vain!"
"Murray, do you have a problem with your understanding?"
"In this way, if you don't believe it, you can just take one and try it at any auction company in China."
"If one company says it's genuine, then I lose."
"If I lose, I will pay you ten times the price of the genuine product."
"How about it, do you want to challenge it?"
"puff"
Lu Fei's words were conclusive, and this was definitely true.
But Murray just didn't want to believe that there were fakes in the collection of the great Thomas family!
If this spreads out, it will be extremely embarrassing.
"Mr. Lu Fei, as you said, the imitation craftsmanship of those workshops is enough to make it look like the real thing."
"So, how can you guarantee that all the auction company's appraisers can recognize it?" Murray asked.
Hearing this, Lu Fei laughed again.
"Why are you laughing again?" Murray asked with a frown.
"Murray, your family is different from others."
"You don't pay attention to these collections, and you have relatively little information about this industry."
"I said that the textile craftsmanship is perfect."
"But those workshops are all from China."
"In order to ensure that these imitation porcelains do not harm their compatriots in the future, every piece they make has intentional flaws."
"This matter was known to the whole world twenty years ago, but you are still kept in the dark."
"That's your problem."
What Lu Fei said was right. The marks left by Dong Ji and the Sifang Kilns who had framed the foreigners back then had been known to the world as early as twenty years ago.
The hidden secret was exposed, and Yongle Xuande, who was proud of the European rich, was
Blue and white instantly turned into a big joke.
In order to avoid embarrassment, those rich people simply gritted their teeth and destroyed it themselves.
Even if you are reluctant to destroy it, you can only hide it in the snow and never show it to others again in this life.
Through that incident, Yongle and Xuande blue and white porcelain almost disappeared from the market instantly.
As for the real genuine products, the price has been soaring in the following years.
Up to now, the value of Yongle Xuande's blue and white porcelain is second only to Yuan's blue and white porcelain.
From this perspective, those few workshops not only did not destroy the image of our ancestors, but actually brought their value to the highest peak.
Foreigners deplored their behavior.
The Chinese people were amazed.
In that era, cheating foreigners was a skill.
No matter how despicable the means are, what matters is only the results.
What Lu Fei laughed about was that the wealthy bosses in Europe had destroyed the imitations themselves.
But such a powerful Thomas family still treats this kind of garbage as a treasure, which is simply ridiculous.
Seeing Lu Fei's jealous and sarcastic expression, Murray was so angry that his eyes were about to burst, but he didn't dare to break out.
Gritting his teeth, he asked, "Mr. Lu Fei, what do you mean by secret message?"
"Can you tell me something?"
Lu Fei chuckled and said, "Forget it!"
"When these words come out of my mouth, I'm afraid of hurting your self-esteem."
"If you have time, you can look it up online and you can easily find the answer."
"What I can tell you is that the problem lies in the bottom line. You can explore it yourself slowly!"
After Lu Fei finished speaking, he continued to move forward. Murray clenched his fist tightly and followed.
Seeing so many fakes in the Thomas family, Lu Fei was in a good mood.
But after walking less than five meters, Lu Fei's face suddenly darkened.
Moreover, his face became increasingly ugly, and there was even a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.
On the left are the Xuande blue and white double dragon pattern vase and the Yongle blue and white dragon pattern covered bowl set of six.
Kangxi Cloisonné Fushou Hotpot.
Kangxi Four Seasons Peony Flower Bowl, Kangxi Pastel Bowl with Hundreds of Life Patterns, etc., a total of 19 pieces of valuable treasures.
These are all national treasures recorded in the Old Summer Palace that were robbed!
This is not only the loss of a national treasure, but also a major shame of history. Seeing this, Lu Fei was filled with indignation.
Seeing the huge contrast in Lu Fei's expression, Murray felt much better.
He came over with a smile and asked: "Mr. Lu Fei, what's wrong with you?"
"Did you find another fake?"
"If you find out again, tell me clearly."
"I can hold on!!"
Lu Fei frowned and looked at Murray and asked.
"Mr. Murray, how did you obtain this, this, and these items?"
"Can you tell me something?"
"hehe!"
"You're asking me this for nothing, I really don't know."
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" Murray said.
Lu Fei glared at this guy and relaxed again in an instant.
Murray is right, he is an artifact idiot.
Counting this time, he has only been here twice, so he definitely doesn't understand.
"hehe!"
"It's nothing."
Lu Fei pointed at the Kangxi Fortune and Shouxiang Cloud Pattern Cloisonné Hot Pot and said.
"I like this thing, help me remember it."
"I'll go out and discuss it with you second elder later. I'm going to take this thing back to cook the mutton."
"Well!"
"All right!"
"I remember to remind you that as for whether the second elder agrees, I can't guarantee you." Murray said.
"It doesn't matter, just remind me!"
After relaxing, Lu Fei continued to move forward.
The left and right sides have entered the world of Manchu and Qing porcelain and enamel.
Colorful, dazzling, and numerous, it’s breathtaking.
If old guys like Zhang Yanheguan Haishan were here, even if they didn't die suddenly from excitement, they would still need quick-acting heart-saving pills to survive.
As for the value, Lu Fei has never calculated it at all.
If you calculate carefully, from the beginning of stone tools to now, I have seen at least thousands of items.
The total value is definitely much more than Lao Bai's total wealth.
Speaking of this, Lu Fei remembered one more thing.
At the beginning, the Thomas family really did not use their own collection to support Yoshida Ohno.
Otherwise, with the background of the Thomas family, Jinling Doubao himself would never win so easily.
After a few minutes, the row came to an end.
Returning from the last row was another big surprise.
From the inside out, the first thing you see is the wood.
There are more than a dozen wooden screens, wood carvings and lacquerware from the Han Dynasty.
It is well preserved, and if you get it from China, it will definitely be a special first-class national treasure.
In addition, Lu Fei also discovered an incredible treasure.
This is a chair.
The format is extremely simple, with four legs, a height of 25 centimeters from the bottom to the seat, and a height of about 35 centimeters from the backrest.
The backrest is triangular and hollow.
The three pillars in the middle are engraved with rough patterns of auspicious clouds, nothing more.
Although the system is simple, the material is quite impressive. It is actually made of natural ebony aniseed.
The seat board is about 40 centimeters wide, and there is no splicing.
An ebony aniseed material with a diameter of forty centimeters is much more powerful than a rosewood aniseed material of the same size!
