Chapter 322 The Troublesome Plum Bottle

Treasure House.

In front of Song Yun and Tang Miaomiao was an old man Marin who was close to 70.

"Mr. Ma, I haven't seen you for a while, but you are still red-faced, and the more you live, the younger you are."

When Tang Miaomiao first entered the antiques business, Malin was the first customer. The two have known each other for more than 5 years, and they will contact each other from time to time. The relationship is very good.

"Hehehe!"

"Yes! It's true that we haven't seen each other in a while!"

"The body is not bad. Anyway, there is nothing to do now. Every day is to sleep, eat, exercise, and the most important thing is to play with antiques."

Marin had a smile on his face and was in a very good mood.

"This one is Song Yun, right?"

"The young guy is very good. It's all the news you've missed recently. Those of us who play antiques are all envious."

Malin looked at Song Yun and smiled even more brilliantly. Anyone who plays antiques has a myth or dream, which is to pick up leaks. As for Song Yun, the masters among the masters are naturally admired by others.

"Mr. Ma, you have passed the prize!"

"But it's just luckier!"

Song Yun hurriedly shook his head. In front of an old man like Marin, he didn't dare to put on airs. Respecting the old and loving the young was a basic virtue.

"Great is great!"

"There's no need to be humble about this kind of thing!"

Malin waved his hand, Song Yun said that he was very lucky when he said that he was being modest. Picking up such things is of course related to luck, but more importantly, he has an extraordinary vision. The antiques are there, and some people can see that they are real. Yes, more people see it as if they are blind, they don't know what's going on, it's impossible to pick it up, Song Yun picks it up again and again, it's absolutely impossible for this kind of thing to happen more often. It's not just a matter of luck anymore.

"Mr. Ma, did you come here today and want us to find you an antique?"

Tang Miaomiao changed the topic, it was useless to say too much about such things.

Marin nodded, opened a small bag he was carrying, and carefully took out a bottle from it.

"I want to find a bottle exactly like this one."

"I had a pair of bottles like this in my collection 10 years ago, and then I accidentally broke them!"

"I have always been brooding about this matter. In the past few years, I was in good health and could go everywhere. I have been to auctions and antique markets around the world. The purpose is to find a bottle like this. , It's a pity that 10 years and 8 years have passed, and nothing has been gained. Now that I am old, it is impossible to run around like before."

"I just heard that your Treasure Pavilion can find antiques on your behalf, so I thought about entrusting this matter to you. If you see a bottle like this, be sure to help me get it. As long as the price is not too outrageous, you can agree to the other party. "

While speaking, Marin handed the bottle to Tang Miaomiao.

"Mr. Ma, a bottle like this must have a story, right?"

Tang Miaomiao took the bottle, but instead of looking at it carefully, handed it to Song Yun.

"Hehehe!"

"Of course there is a story!"

"I'm not afraid to tell you that when I got married, my wife brought a dowry from my parents' house."

Marin spoke out and lived to his age, of course there is nothing to be ashamed of in such things.

Tang Miaomiao laughed after hearing this. This is clearly Marin's token of love. No wonder he has been obsessed with it for so many years, so he had to find an identical one.

"Next year will be my wife and I's 50 years of marriage. If you can find something like this, it will definitely be the best gift."

Marin knew that although his wife never said anything, he would definitely hope to make a pair of bottles in his heart.

"Mr. Ma, I understand what you mean."

"But I have to make it clear to you first. This thing is definitely impossible to do in three or five days. We will definitely pay attention and try our best, but in the end, we will not be able to complete it, but we dare not guarantee it."

Tang Miaomiao knew very well the difficulty of making a pair of antiques.

"Hehehe!"

"Miss Tang, don't worry about this matter, I don't have time to ask for it. No matter when I can find it, I can't find it or pull it down. This kind of thing depends on fate, and I can't force it. I've been looking for it for nearly 10 years, but I haven't found anything. , I can't ask you to succeed in ten days and a half months, this is simply impossible."

Marin himself is a collector of antiques, and he is naturally very aware of the difficulty of this matter.

"Mr. Ma, you are a plum bottle from the Yuan Dynasty."

"Porcelain like plum vase is not uncommon in Chinese history. The problem is that yours is just persimmon glaze or persimmon red glaze, which is relatively rare. This is a new variety that appeared in Yaozhou kiln in the middle of the Song Dynasty. The period of time is relatively short, and the amount of celadon in the world is far less than that of the celadon glaze at that time."

"Another problem is that this is a long-necked bottle, which is actually more rare."

"If I remember correctly, in 2014, one piece was auctioned, and this piece was collected in the museum in the city where China reformed and opened up."

Song Yun took a look and immediately came to a conclusion.

This plum bottle of Marin is not particularly precious in terms of market price, about 2 million. The problem is that there are not many of them. The ones that have appeared in the past were either bought by others or collected in museums. , No matter what kind of situation it is, it is not easy to get hold of it.

Marlin sighed.

"At the time of the auction, I didn't receive the news. At that time, I had a serious illness and was hospitalized. I didn't have any intention to pay attention to the news, so I missed it."

"The one in the museum, which I have also seen, is slightly different from this one of mine, and the color is a little different."

Malin knew all these things Song Yun said. The plum bottle in the museum can't be remembered. Even if he has great ability, he can't get it. It's not a matter of money at all. The one that appeared, he even wanted to buy it through some relationships, but the other party refused directly, and there was no way.

Song Yun carefully observed the plum vase, remembering all the details in his mind, especially the color and size of the plum vase. This is very important. If a pair of antiques are placed together, if there is a difference in size and color, It will definitely be very obvious.

Marin sat for a while and then left.

"Song Yun, what do you think of this matter? Are you sure?"

Tang Miaomiao frowned, this matter was really not easy at all in her opinion.

"Try your luck!"

"No one dares to guarantee this kind of thing!"

"To make a pair of antiques, the difficulty lies in the size and the glaze color."

"Even if it comes from the same kiln, even if it comes from the same master, it is also difficult to guarantee the exact sameness."

Song Yun shook his head and sighed. In ancient times, there was no such thing as standardized production, not to mention that this is porcelain, the size may be controllable, and it is the glaze color. After sending it into the kiln to burn, God knows what it will be. It seems that a clever earthenworker can only have a higher control rate than others. Even at the current level of technology, it is not easy to fire two identical porcelains. Needless to say, it was hundreds of years ago. In a word, the plum bottle that Marin was looking for was not exactly the same in the world. In fact, it was not much different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

"Do your best!"

"If you can find it, buy it, and if you can't find it, there's nothing you can do."

Tang Miaomiao shook his head. There is no way to find this business entrusted by Marin, but to follow the circumstances. When looking for other antiques in the future, keep an eye on it to see if there is any gain.
