Rebirth: I am a first-line antique dealer

Chapter 246 Statue of Vajra Haimu

In fact, this kind of pretentiousness is also very common in the antique collecting world.

For example, Ding Mao knew in his last life that a certain boss collected a batch of "Song and Liao" porcelain that had just been "digged" overnight.

But when I got home and looked at it, I realized that it was too careless to bury it in advance. The price was still stuck on it. It said that it was produced by a certain porcelain factory and the wholesale price was marked in RMB.

For example, what is the exclusive use of a certain person only now, what is the imperial edict appointing people from the later dynasty to do the work of the previous dynasty, etc.

It can be said that there are many kinds of frauds, the methods of fraud are extremely inferior, and there is no care at all!

But there are some people who do this, whether you think it's irritating or not.

Ding Mao has always kept a respectful distance from such people, otherwise he would make them unhappy with just one word and easily hurt himself. It would really be more of a loss than a gain!

There is another type of person who likes one thing from the Forbidden City to me, and the one I have is better than the one from the Forbidden City.

Or you tell him clearly that there was no such product in that era in history, but he understands it as a rare item, and the less it exists, the more valuable it is.

It's just a speechless person. You can't wake up this kind of people. If you argue with them, it's just a waste of your life.

Ding Mao remembered that in his previous life, someone had brought a ten-fold Qingning Yuanbao, mainly made of brass, and went to discuss it with him.

Since they were probably acquaintances, they vaguely reminded me that the Liao Dynasty coins should not contain brass, and the Qingning Yuanbao did not seem to have ten-fold coins.

As a result, when the man heard this, he said that he bought it because he paid for it. This has great research value on the history of coin minting in the Liao Dynasty. It provides some basis and can be used as a reference.

Anyway, the words were very lofty, but the meaning of the words never cast doubt on the truth or falsehood.

If you ask another question, can Qingning have this type of coinage?

He will directly complain that you are too young, have little experience, know nothing, etc., and tell you with full confidence and as if you have found a treasure, he is a unique one!

How to wake up such a person?

If you directly say that his stuff is fake or imitation, and someone with a better temper will argue with you, he will get a few scoldings at most.

If you meet someone with a hot temper, they might fight you.

Otherwise, when playing collection, you must have a good attitude, play rationally and calmly, and try not to have whimsical dreams.

Another example is the Ru kiln. There are only a few genuine pieces recorded in the world, and most of them are still in the hands of museums and some big collectors. So how can you encounter them just by walking around in the market.

Looking at the long history, there can be several Zhu Yuanzhangs, so without that unique good fortune and ability, don't even think about reaching the sky in one step.

It’s normal for you to get lucky and become a little rich, but this presupposes that you have the vision and ability!

Ding Mao made antiques for more than ten years in his last life, and in his new life he only dared to play with things that could be understood in recent times.

Including his calligraphy and paintings, if it were not at auction, he would not even dare to think about it, let alone buy it, if it were placed elsewhere!

Take the silver dollar as an example. In the previous life, Ding Mao basically came into contact with the silver dollar every day, but he would occasionally check it once or twice.

Especially new counterfeiting methods that have never been seen before are simply hard to guard against.

This is why he found that some imitations were indeed better, so he bought them back.

Only by understanding the means of counterfeiting can you avoid falling into trouble one after another.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day when Father Yang and the others came over.

The main reason why Yang's father came here this time was to personally deliver some things that were not suitable for mailing. In addition, he wanted to meet the benefactor who helped his family prosper, and to see his daughter.

He has been working with Ding Mao for so long, and has only heard about it from his daughter, but has never seen her.

Apart from his daughter, he has only met Ding Hong in Ding Mao's entire team!

They all regard each other as their God of Wealth, so they must be extremely enthusiastic after meeting.

Also coming with Yang's father this time was Yang Xue's stepmother.

Through the wealth that Yang Xue brought to the family and the earth-shaking changes in the family in the past two years, Yang Xue's stepmother's attitude towards her had already turned 180 degrees.

So after meeting Yang Xue, I started asking him questions and was extraordinarily intimate and caring.

With the money earned during this period, Yang's father not only renovated his family's house, but also bought a truck with a large space to facilitate his trips to the countryside to collect goods.

The most important thing is the price given by Ding Mao. He can make a lot of money when buying goods from some high-end houses, so he has a steady supply of goods, and he is somewhat famous in the local circle!

This time, the goods he brought to Ding Mao still made Ding Mao very satisfied.

In particular, several Buddhist statues are of very good vintage, and there are also gilt statues nearly 40cm high.

The appearance of several inch Buddhas is also very perfect, and they are also quite special.

There are also many black, copper and silver items, and this time there are also such smoking utensils.

Not to mention the porcelain. He came to deliver it in person during this trip, mainly because he was afraid that the porcelain would break in the mail.

Among the many items, the one that struck Ding Mao's heart the most was a gilt bronze statue of Vajrayana.

In Tibetan Buddhism, Vajrahi is the first female deity of the Kagyu sect, and the Master's Correspondence Method is also practiced with Vajrahi as the deity. She is the secret deity of Marpa and Milarepa.

Practicing Vajra Haimu Dharma can purify worries, increase wisdom, realize the fruit of deathlessness, and capture the merits of the ten dharma realms.

This statue of Vajra Haimu has one face, two arms and three eyes. The three of them wear skull crowns and big ears. The upper body is exposed, the waist is slender and the breasts are large, and the appearance is fierce.

The boar's head sticking out from the right side of the head means victory over ignorance. The pig belongs to the time of Hai and is the image symbol of Vajra Haimu.

Wearing a jade-like necklace on the chest, and dozens of skull ornaments hanging around the neck.

The waist is tied with a Yingluo skirt, and the silk belt is wrapped around the body and passes over the head in a U-shape like a Buddha's light, with the tail end flowing elegantly at the side of the body.

The right hand holds a yue knife, the left hand holds a kabala on the chest, and the left shoulder holds a decorated vajra and a kadranga with three human heads.

Standing in a dancing posture, the right foot is bent and suspended in the air, and the left foot is covering the lotus corpse seat, with a graceful appearance.

This type of statue has obvious regional characteristics and belongs to the southern Tibetan style.

Approximately 28cm high, the entire statue is gilded and decorated with various gemstones. It is definitely a rare statue.

It can be said that Father Yang was very lucky to receive such a statue.

In addition, there are two items that are quite good, such as vajra and bell.

Among the goods brought by Yang's father this time, Ding Mao found that several pieces were completely suitable for auction. From this, it can be seen that this batch of goods is valuable.

There are also some coins and other items, but I have mailed many to Ding Mao before. The ones I brought this time were collected later, so the quantity is not too large.
