Considering the condition of the wounded, we did not stay too long in Karamir.
Three days later, our international column said goodbye to the local shepherds and set off back to Beijing.
As soon as we arrived in the city, I asked the fat man to quickly find the big gold tooth.
We met at Uncle Ming's house and collected all the valuable antiques.
Of course, Shirey Yang didn't know about this.
Shirey Yang wanted to take Axiang to the hospital to review the wound, so I just found an excuse and ran away first.
Uncle Ming ran away several times but failed, so he had to take me home with a sad face.
Beijing used to be known as "the big alleys have three thousand and six, and the small alleys are more competitive."
After the reform and opening up, with the transformation of the city, the number of courtyard houses gradually decreased.
Uncle Ming's house is located near Fucheng Gate.
It is a quiet area in the middle of the bustle.
Although it is a bit dilapidated, every brick and tile has an ancient and decadent beauty.
There are still some "ceiling fish tank pomegranate trees, Mr.
Fat dog, fat girl” atmosphere.
The more I looked at it, the more I felt that this courtyard was exquisite, and I couldn't help but regret it.
If I had asked Uncle Ming to consider the house as part of the reward, he would not have refused.
Unfortunately, we only wanted the antique calligraphy and paintings in the house.
In a short time, Fatty and Da Jinya each carried two large suitcases and rushed to join them.
As soon as Big Gold Tooth saw me, he bared his shining golden front teeth and said: "Oh, my Mr.
Hu, you really miss your brother.
Ever since you went to Tibet, my eyelids have not skipped a day.
I hope the Central Red Army It’s as if I’ve finally come back to you in northern Shaanxi.
The situation in Panjiayuan is not good now, and business can’t be done.
During these days when you’re gone, my brothers don’t even have anyone to discuss with.”
I said to Da Jinya: "Our trip almost ended up in the Kunlun Mountains.
I didn't expect that our base area would be very difficult.
But we can talk about these things later.
Now we will divide the land among the local tyrants.
Uncle Ming has already taken all the money in this house." antiques All the things were given to us as remuneration.
The fat man and I are dissatisfied with activities such as identifying the age and value of antiques, and half of the bottles are dangling, so you have to keep an eye on these things so that we can fold them as soon as possible. now."
Da Jinya said: "Master Hu, Fat Master, just look at it.
Don't worry, we are not good brothers in craftsmanship, but when it comes to our eyesight in ancient poems, ancient jades, and miscellaneous items, we are really not the same."
No matter how many experts there are in Sijiu City, I have never seen anyone who can compare with me."
The fat man was so happy that he could hardly close his mouth.
He held Uncle Ming's neck tightly with one arm: "I'm really busy cleaning up Jin'ou and dividing the fields.
Uncle Ming, we won't be polite to you anymore.
Who's at the door?
When you shot me, I didn't have the nerve to say anything, so I just stopped talking and opened the door quickly. " Uncle Ming had no choice but to open the door to the room where the antiques were placed.
Everything inside was as before.
There were many antiques placed on several quaint sandalwood cabinets, making people wonder what to look at.
There is no difference between this place and the first time we came here, except for a thirteen-whiskered porcelain cat.
That thing is not a valuable thing in the first place, and we don’t care much about it.
What Da Jinya never forgets and always thinks about is the phoenix-shaped jade that Uncle Ming has always carried with him.
That thing has long since fallen into the hands of the fat man, and he took it out now so that he could make a record and estimate the total value.
The funds for our business trip to the United States will all be spent on it.

Big Gold Tooth didn't care about anything else.
This time he finally held the jade phoenix in his hands, and he expressed his sincere admiration: "It is very unscientific to say that crushing jade and eating it can lead to immortality." , but it is an indisputable fact that jade has the effect of nourishing the skin and keeping the body healthy.
Empress Dowager Cixi and Lafayette insisted on using jade for beauty every day.
At that time, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty.
The jade plucking from Kunshan that moisturizes the child's hair does not require any orchid paste, but the hair on the temples is fresh and moist.
No woman in the world can match it, but she still uses Kunshan jade, which is much worse than the jade phoenix at the bottom of the East China Sea.
"A gentleman will never leave his body without a reason.
In my opinion, Mr.
Hu, it is better not to sell this jade phoenix.
It is a good thing to keep for future generations."
I took the jade phoenix and looked at it.
Although there is historical evidence that it was an authentic piece used by Concubine Yang Guifei, even I could see that the carving was obviously in the style of "Han Ba Dao", indicating that it was much older than the Tang Dynasty.
It will last for a long time.
It is a rare and beautiful jade that can be encountered but not sought.
But this is for women after all.
What’s the use of keeping it?
We might as well sell it for cash.
But then I thought, why not give it to Shiry Yang.
This is not poured from a bucket.
She will definitely like it, so she nodded.
Agreed, let the fat man not count Yufeng among them when he settles the accounts.
Then we looked at the rest of the antiques one by one, and it was okay if we didn't look at them.
Only when we looked at them did we realize that Uncle Ming had fooled us.
There have been many fine imitations of antiques during the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
It is precisely because they have the value of being collected and worthy of evaluation and play to identify the authenticity that big players have room to display their vision, financial resources and courage. .
Identifying authenticity is easy to get started but difficult to master.
In a sense, the charm of antiques lies in the difficulty of distinguishing authenticity.
Many of the things in Uncle Ming's house look real, but if you examine them carefully and touch them with your hands and nose, you will know that they are not of high value and most of them are fake decorations.
In a rage, the fat man wanted to use Uncle Ming's ribs as a washboard.
Uncle Ming quickly came to me to beg for mercy.
In the past, it was just to support his appearance, so he had a room full of things like this.
He worked hard to collect antiques in Nanyang for half a lifetime, and most of them were used to pay off the gambling debts of his two precious sons.
He was actually close to bankruptcy, otherwise It is impossible to risk your life to go to Kunlun Mountain.
However, not all of these gadgets are fake, and some of them are quite valuable.
I waved my hand to the fat man, forget it, even if he beats him hard he won't spit out the gold bars.
Let's clear out all the fakes first and see what's left.
Immediately, they started working together with Big Jinya and Fatty, rummaging through the boxes and cabinets to count the many utensils.
The fat man thought he had a unique vision, so he picked up a dark red lotus-shaped porcelain bowl and said, "Old Hu and Old Jin, take a look, this is definitely kiln glaze.
The glaze on the outside of the bowl is as dark red as blood, and the inside is full of striped glaze flowers.
I watched it in Panjiayuan specifically.
Baldy Li from Teng Porcelain took a similar one.
He said that the color is called chicken blood red or cinnabar red, and the inner stripes are called raindrops.
It looks like rain dripping down the wall.
If it is Jun.
The kiln is worth a lot of money."

Da Jinya took it and looked at it: "Fat Master, you have really high vision.
How can there be so much Jun kiln porcelain?
As the saying goes, one Jun kiln porcelain is worth ten thousand gold.
I have never seen a few in all these years.
Complete, Junci has no Yes, the kiln transformation is unparalleled and can be seen anywhere.
The glaze color is as red as rouge, followed by green and purple.
Its kiln transformation is called earthworm mud pattern, which means that there are strips of meandering and extending in the glaze.
The glaze marks of different lengths from top to bottom are like earthworms swimming in the soil.
They are very unique.
First of all, this vessel is not a bowl, it is a brush wash.
The color is rose red and an imitation of Zijun.
It is an extremely rich grape purple color.
Regardless of the shape, glaze, ring, air bubbles, or texture, it is not the real thing, but just a high imitation from the late Republic of China.
Maybe the one from Suzhou is worth a thousand yuan.
That’s pretty good.”
I said to the fat man and the big gold tooth: "There are also fake ones that are exquisitely imitated.
Although they are not as valuable as the real ones, they are better than scraps.
Maybe we can use them to drive foreign piles and exchange them with foreigners for some foreign exchange coupons."
"As he said that, he packed up the laundry bag.
Among the jumble of real and fake antiques, one thing caught my eye.
It was a porcelain cup with neat patterns and white glaze.
The shape was like the cup used by the leaders during the Great Hall of the People meeting, but the workmanship seemed to be more exquisite and the texture was very good.
Of course, it was still from its strong era.
The most attractive features: the cup handle is in the shape of a sickle and axe, the lid has a red five-star and fist symbol, and the words "To realize the industrialization of the country" are written on it.
On the front of the cup, there is also "Implement the general line and general tasks into all work."
Go" quotes.
I asked Uncle Ming: "This cup should not be fake, but I don't know which leader used the leftovers.
Where did you get it from?"
Uncle Ming said that this is of course not fake.
It was given by a friend from mainland China two years ago.
It is said to be out of print.
The value of this cup cannot be lowered.
It is a typical cultural relic of the Republic.
Just take it and leave the rest.
Leave a few for me.
After seeing it, the fat man said: "I used to have something like this at home, and it was made by my old man during a meeting.
At that time, I was still young, and I would let Lao Hu persuade me to walk out of the house and use a slingshot as a target to smash it.
That's it.
A broken cup can be valuable” Da Jinya said: "In that era, even now, the cups given to the chiefs during meetings were similar, but this one is definitely different.
Look at the money on this cup, it is Zhang Songtao's withdrawal, and Jingdezhen City The First Porcelain Painting Craft Cooperative.
This cup is incredible.
As far as I know, it must be specially made for China.
It was ordered for the Lushan Conference of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China.
It was a major political task at that time.
Jingdezhen's famous porcelain painters were mobilized to specialize in porcelain painting.

There are not many of them.
The Songtao model is even more rare and has high value.
As it is out of print, it may be.
The value is not obvious now, but as the years go by, this cup will become more and more valuable.”
I held up the tea cup and admired it again and again.
If I put it at home to drink water, wouldn't I feel the same as the chief?
Although this is not a real antique, it is not only exquisite in craftsmanship, unique in style, and very rare in quantity, but even more rare is that it has witnessed Having gone through the vicissitudes of history, it has a profound special meaning, which is in line with the two words "fine and young" in the five words "old, young, refined, beautiful and good" that measure the value of antiques.
If it can be matched with a complete set, the value may be Even more than ordinary bright weapons.
It seems that there are still some good things in Uncle Ming's gadgets.
Although the harvest is not as big as we expected, it is still an unexpected harvest.
Most of the artifacts displayed in Uncle Ming's room were purchased "at one shot" from antique dealers for appearance.
The so-called "one shot" means that a large number of artifacts are sold at the same time.
Most of them are high imitations made before and after the Republic of China.
Although they are not worth a big price, they are not worth a penny like ordinary Xibei goods.
Moreover, these items contain , and there are so many genuine good things.
So the three of them cheered up and sorted the items into categories.
Those that were judged to be worthless by the big gold tooth were piled in the corner of the room.
As the cleaning operation progressed, there were fewer and fewer things on the sandalwood shelves, and Uncle Ming's face became increasingly ugly.
At this time, the fat man saw a purple clay pot lying in an inconspicuous place.
It was bald and looked rustic, so he casually threw it into the corner where the defective products were piled.
Da Jinya was sniffing a small copper Buddha statue at that time.
Suddenly he saw the purple clay pot that the fat man was still out of.
He opened his mouth wide and stared at the parabola falling from the purple clay pot from the air.
He didn't even want the bronze Buddha anymore, and I don't know why he was so agile at this time, and he actually caught the purple clay pot before it fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
Da Jinya had sweat on his forehead: "Fat Master, you are really an ancestor.
If I hadn't noticed, this pot would have been smashed by you."
The fat man said: "What are you making all the fuss about?
This broken pot is full of dirt, even the luster of the purple sand is gone.
I don't know where it came from the gutter.
Who is willing to spend money on it?"
I also think that this pot has an unattractive appearance, and its shape is OK, but its texture is too bald, and it lacks the smoothness that generations of people have rubbed and played with, which is what we commonly call the "patina" on the surface of ancient pots.
It doesn't look good at all.
Come.
However, big gold teeth are rarely misjudged.
Could it be that this is a valuable thing?
Da Jinya carefully touched the body of the pot and took a few sniffs with his nose: "Although this purple clay pot is inconspicuous, it is an ancient artifact from the Ming Dynasty.
This shape is called a tendon.
We can see the Ming Dynasty purple clay in modern times.
There is no smooth and moist paste on it, because 90% of it is poured out from the tomb.
Ming ware.
The carcass has been buried in the soil for many years, and even if it was originally smooth, it has been immersed in the soil.
In addition, the technology of that period has not been improved, but the mud was slightly refined, and there were many impurities.
So the initial impression is not as good as the pots from the Qing Dynasty, but this is a real artifact.”
Fatty, Da Jinya and I wrapped up the purple clay pot with satisfaction, and finally picked out a total of more than twenty items.
Unknowingly, it was already getting late.

When I looked at the time, it was past nine o'clock in the evening.
Everyone was busy ordering food and naturally did not bother to eat.
The fat man said that when he came, he saw there was a restaurant at the entrance of the alley, so he should go and have a meal before going home.
So we packed up our things and left.
We had no intention of taking Uncle Ming with us, but Uncle Ming seemed reluctant to part with his few things and shamelessly insisted on following us
