Chapter 1695: Nordic porcelain
The porcelain that Ye Tian was referring to was a Kangxi colorful mallet bottle.
The porcelain was painted with a picture of the long pavilion farewell, and it looked very beautiful. It was placed in the middle of the stall, giving it a feeling of standing out from the crowd.
Following the direction of Ye Tian's finger, the stall owner looked at the colorful mallet bottle, then nodded and said:
"Good morning, Mr. Steven, welcome to my booth, nice to meet you, of course you can get started, just be careful."
"Okay, man, I will be more careful"
After speaking, Ye Tian stretched out his hand to carry the Kangxi colorful stick and mallet bottle, put it on the table in front of him, and leaned over to study.
Betty and the others also came over, admiring this beautiful porcelain together.
"Kangxi Wucai introduced it to you before, so I won't repeat it. You may not be very familiar with the shape of the porcelain in front of you. This is called the Bangchui Ping, one of the traditional Chinese porcelain shapes.
The pattern drawn on this Kangxi colorful stick and mallet bottle is a farewell picture of Changting Pavilion. It is derived from the story in the four classic Chinese classics "Journey to the West". It is a common theme on traditional Chinese porcelain.
The story tells that when Tang Xuanzang left Chang'an and set off to learn scriptures in the West, Tang Taizong Li Shimin led hundreds of civil and military officials to Changting farewell. There are many characters on it,..."
As always, Ye Tian explained to Betty and the others while appreciating and appraising this Kangxi colorful porcelain, and did not deliberately avoid the stall owner who was close at hand.
Of course, he knew the authenticity of this Kangxi colorful stick and hammer bottle the moment he arrived at this booth, and now it is just acting.
Hearing Ye Tian's words, a surprise flashed in the eyes of the stall owner, even a bit greedy.
The eyes of the rest of the people on the scene were also bright, and the sight of the porcelain piece suddenly became much hotter.
After reading this porcelain over and over again, Ye Tian raised his head to look at the stall owner, and said with a smile:
"Man, what is the price of this Kangxi multicolored mallet bottle? Let's hear it"
The stall owner looked at the porcelain again, then fell silent, as if thinking.
After a while, the buddy gritted his teeth and said:
"Mr. Steven, the price of this beautiful Chinese porcelain is 85,000 Euros. If you can accept this price, you can take this antique Chinese porcelain with you."
While making the offer, the stall owner also stared at Ye Tian, looking forward to hearing the most beautiful answer.
Others at the scene also stared at Ye Tian, to see how he responded, whether to accept the price or refuse.
"Wow! Eighty-five thousand euros, the price is too much beyond my estimate. It seems that this Kangxi colorful mallet bottle has no chance with me, I can only miss it!"
Ye Tian chuckled and shook his head, then turned to look at the other porcelains in the stall.
As for the Kangxi multicolored mallet bottle, he never looked at it again.
The stall owner was completely dumbfounded and looked at Ye Tian dumbfounded.
You are paying the price. If it succeeds, you don't even pay the price. What do you mean by that? Is it possible to play with me?
Before the stall owner gave a response, Ye Tian pointed to another piece of porcelain on the stall and began to inquire again.
"Man, what's the price of this vase? It looks beautiful, like French GIEN porcelain"
Following the direction of his finger, the stall owner looked at the European-style vase on the stall and gave an offer.
"You read that right, Mr. Steven, this is indeed a piece of French GIEN ceramics, and it is a fine piece of porcelain, perfect in appearance, very beautiful, and the price is 6,200 euros."
Obviously, this buddy has a long memory, and dare not ask for prices again.
Although the price of 6,200 euros is slightly higher, it is not too outrageous and within a reasonable range!
In fact, most European ceramics are also difficult to charge wildly. These porcelains are basically marked with the date of production and factory label. The market price is clear and there is little room for human manipulation.
Chinese porcelain is not the case. From ancient times to the present, all porcelains are only marked with the emperor's reign, indicating the dynasty and dynasty they were manufactured in. Some of them don't even have the emperor's reign, such as porcelain from the Song and Yuan Dynasties.
In addition, there are countless imitations and counterfeits in the past dynasties, such as the Ming Dynasty imitating Song, Ming Dynasty imitating Yuan, Qing imitating Song, Qing imitating Ming and so on.
In modern times, with the rise of collecting craze, there are more and more fake fakes of different levels. If you are not experts in the industry, you can't tell the authenticity of porcelain.
After hearing the offer, Ye Tian did not nod immediately, but accepted the price and took down the European-style vase.
He reached out and picked up the vase from the booth, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully, then gently shook his head, and put the vase back in place.
Obviously, he is not satisfied with this European-style vase and does not plan to buy this porcelain.
Next, he pointed out several pieces of porcelain one after another and asked the boss one by one.
This includes traditional porcelain from China that looks like an antique, as well as porcelain from Europe. He was very interested in every piece of porcelain he ordered.
However, when the stall owner reported the price, Ye Tian would shook his head and refused, and then turned to the next goal and repeated the previous process.
In this way, after coming down three or five times, the stall owner had already suffocated his stomach, and he was about to explode.
The relevant porcelain quotations he gave are getting closer to reality, even lower than the normal market price.
And this is exactly what Ye Tian wanted to see.
The time is ripe to make a move.
Ye Tian pointed to a group of porcelain again and said with a smile:
"If I'm not mistaken, that set of coffee pots and coffee cups should be the Danish flower of Royal Copenhagen Ceramics. I don't know the price of that set of ceramics?"
The stall owner turned his head and looked at the set of coffee pots and coffee cups placed in the corner of the booth, and then bit his back teeth and gave an offer.
"Yes, that is indeed the Danish flower of Royal Copenhagen Ceramics. The price is 2,200 euros. If you can accept this price, that set of porcelain will be yours!"
When he said this, the stall owner thought that Ye Tian just asked about the price at random, and did not intend to actually buy that set of porcelain, just like the previous few times.
However, what happened next was completely beyond his expectation.
"Okay, man, it was sold for 2200 euros, I want that group of Danish flowers"
Ye Tian smiled and nodded, and stretched out his right hand to the stall owner.
"Ah! Do you really want this set of Royal Copenhagen porcelain?"
The stall owner exclaimed in surprise, even a little bit unable to believe his ears.
"Of course it's true, man, unless you want to break your promise, I don't want to see something like that happen, I believe you too!"
Ye Tian responded with a smile, and there was a threat in his tone.
Even if he is a fool, he already understands that Ye Tian has been acting before, and his real goal is the Danish flower of this group of Royal Copenhagen ceramics.
As an antique dealer who ate at the Canal Antique Market, the stall owner didn't know where he was, step by step, he was led into the ditch by the cunning **** in front of him.
Although he still didn't understand the value of that group of Danish flower coffee pots, he was very sure that he was definitely pitted and the loss was not small.
However, it is hard to harvest the water!
He has no room for remorse now. If he breaks his promise and gets fat, then don't want to mess around in this business, and also have to go to court, and don't even want to keep the set of porcelain.
After a moment of silence, this buddy stretched out his right hand reluctantly, shook hands with Ye Tian, and concluded the deal.
"Deal, Steven, you are such a cunning guy, I'm convinced!"
"Man, in fact, you are not at a loss. I bet that the price of this Danish flower will never exceed 500 Euros. You have already made a lot of money!"
Ye Tian said with a smile, a smugness in his words.
Then he took out his wallet, took out 2,200 euros from it and handed it to the stall owner, and brought the group of Danish flower coffee pots.
After receiving the payment and putting the 2,200 euros into his pocket, the stall owner immediately asked suspiciously:
"Steven, the transaction is complete, this set of porcelain already belongs to you, now can you explain why you want to buy this set of Danish flowers? I don't quite understand it!"
Not only the stall owner, everyone on the scene wanted to know the answer to this question, and they all wanted to know the value of the Danish flower porcelain group!
Without exception, everyone looked at Ye Tian, looking forward to his answer.
Ye Tian looked at the stall owner, then glanced at the crowd~www.wuxiaspot.com~, then smiled and shook his head and said:
"Man, now that the things have been successfully sold, don't worry about it anymore. You should leave them behind, forget them completely, and continue your business.
Today is still very long, and this month’s antique fair is also rare. If I tell you the answer to this question, it will definitely make you feel bad, so why bother!
That's it, nice to meet you, I wish you a good day, business is booming, we are leaving, there are still many stalls to go shopping in front, goodbye! "
After speaking, Ye Tian picked up the bag containing the group of Danish flower porcelain, took Betty and walked forward and left the stall.
"Hey!"
A regretful sigh sounded at the scene, from many onlookers.
Looking at the stall owner again, his eyes were always fixed on the bag in Ye Tian's hand, his eyes filled with doubts and reluctance.
Of course, his eyes are also full of regret.
