antique appraiser

Take out a walnut and examine it carefully. Because of the protection of the pulp, the stains on the walnut are not stubborn and should be easy to clean. But from this point of view, the pair of Erwen walnuts were not treated well. kept.Condition is also an important condition for the value of an object. Due to improper preservation, this walnut can no longer reproduce the best condition at the beginning. This is a valid reason.

Moreover, people collected Wenwan walnuts at the beginning because of the historical reasons of the previous dynasty. This walnut is precious because it carries culture. Compared with other porcelains, walnuts do not require much labor, and do not reflect much of the wonderfulness. From this perspective, the value walnuts had in previous eras may not be available in this era.

No matter how much you tout it, when people collect something, it must be because the object has its value, and the value of an antique must be the culture it carries.Just look at those cultural relics related to the West that are not valued by people. A culture that has no roots cannot create much added value for the cultural relics that carry it.Just like this walnut, unless the Chinese culture is fully revived, including the past customs of playing with walnuts are all re-accepted by people, it will have a high enough value.

Thinking about it this way, Wen Liyan doesn't feel as embarrassed as before. No matter how famous Wen is playing walnuts, it depends on the environment.

Wen Liyan put the walnuts into the box, and looked up at Qu Jinglan calmly.

"How?" Qu Jinglan asked.

Wen Liyan smiled and said: "It's not as good as He. This object, if you want it to have the value of being a fruit of an unmutated ancient plant, it will not have much value as an antique; if it has enough value as a plaything, it will not have much value." The value of ancient plant fruits."

Qu Jinglan frowned, what does this mean?What Wen Liyan said was quite weird, making it hard for people to understand.

Seeing Qu Jinglan's incomprehensible expression, Wen Liyan twitched the corners of his mouth, and there was a little contempt in his eyes.

He said: "Let's put it this way, your thing is indeed a plaything collected by ancient people, and it is indeed not just the fruit of two ancient plants that have not mutated."

Qu Jinglan was a little happy when he heard it, but he felt that there was something in Wen Liyan's words, and he didn't want to praise these two fruits, and he was afraid that a "but" would appear in the next sentence.

Sure enough, what to be afraid of.Wen Liyan immediately came to a turning point: "However, unlike other playthings collected by ancient people, the value of this item is comparable to that of porcelain, colored glaze, and calligraphy and painting. Shaking his head, he looked regretful.

"At present, the collection value of this object as a plaything is far inferior to that before the catastrophe, but these two fruits can be considered as ancient plant fruits that have not mutated. If you want to make these two fruits It has sufficient collection value, unless it is before the catastrophe. This is what I meant just now. The value as the fruit of ancient plants and the value as a collection cannot have both."

"...Impossible! Since it had such a high value at the beginning, shouldn't it have a higher value after so many years!" Qu Jinglan was silent for a while, and then flatly denied Wen Liyan's statement, completely unwilling to believe Wen Liyan statement.

Wen Liyan already knew that the other party would have such a reaction. I am afraid that the other party felt that he wanted to be soft, but he couldn't help but speak so hard, right?Deliberately saying that this thing does have collection value, but said that the collection value is not great.However, it was different from what they thought, this time, Wen Liyan was going to completely sweep the other party's face!

"Nothing is impossible, Assistant Qu Jinglan. You should know the objects of the former Western civilization on the market, right? Compared with the ancient objects, how are their prices?" Simply citing an example, Wen Liyan sneered.Just as the price of Western objects cannot be compared with Chinese ones, a walnut that has not been processed by many people cannot be compared with other exquisite artificial objects.If the two walnuts on both sides were walnut carvings, it would be fine. Exquisite carvings must be of high value, but since they are not, there is nothing to say.

Qu Jinglan pursed her lips tightly and stared at Wen Liyan.

"You mean, nothing to say?"

He wasn't fooled by Wen Liyan's words, he wondered if this thing was worth anything, and whether it was really worth it all depended on the appraiser's words!Now Wen Liyan made it clear that he was not giving him face, and he was not willing to admit the value of this thing at all.

"If Assistant Qu Jinglan has something of real value, you can still appraise it. This one..." Wen Liyan smiled gently, "I'm so sorry." He realized that he was imitating Qu Jingshui's style , in short, it seems to speak to you very friendly and gentle, but the meaning in the words is enough to piss people off.Wen Liyan now only feels that speaking like this is very refreshing, especially when facing Qu Jinglan who wants to overwhelm others.

"Wen Liyan, don't be so ignorant of good and evil!" Mo Jing was the first to speak again, and slapped the table, looking manic again.

"Mr. Mo, you don't seem to be the one who decides." Wen Liyan just said something plainly, then squinted at Mo Jing, and laughed strangely, but it was a straight feeling: "Ha ha."

The feeling of sarcasm jumped out, which directly made Mo Jing anxious, pointing at Wen Liyan, but didn't know what to say.

Wen Liyan suddenly felt that his speaking skills were getting better and better. At the beginning, he was often so popular that he couldn't speak, but now he can speak so that others can't speak.

"I also want to know, Mo Jing, you are not the one who decides!?" The stalemate was broken by Qu Jingshui's voice. Not here, right? It should still be working hours."

Wen Liyan smiled.

Qu Jinglan stood up when she heard Qu Jingshui's voice, turned around, and looked at Qu Jingshui.

"Qu Jingshui." He called Qu Jingshui by his full name.

"It's really rare, why did the eldest brother appear in my auction house?" He stared at Qu Jinglan blankly for a while, Qu Jingshui suddenly smiled, as if he was very happy, walked up to Qu Jinglan and said .

"Brother, don't you always think that antiques are just things that can't be put on the table?"

Floating questions, hidden sharpness.

"Really? I don't remember saying that. I've always liked the antique business. Today I just came to find Master Wen Liyan to look at the objects in my hands." Qu Jinglan also responded calmly with a relaxed look .

"That's why I made a mistake." Qu Jinglan didn't care about Qu Jinglan's response, Qu Jingshui directly covered the subject, then turned his eyes on Wen Liyan, and asked him: "Liyan, what did the elder brother bring? "

Wen Liyan sat firmly on the Diaoyutai, not intending to stand up. He tapped on the box and said, "It's just a pair of unmutated ancient plant fruits that are not worth collecting." It was different from Luo Xingchen's jar of snake wine, Ancient creatures are basically extinct until now, but ancient plant fruits are not so cherished. After all, human beings have the habit of storing food. As long as they are stored, there must be some that slip through the net. Luo Xingchen's snake wine can be sold for sky-high prices. Such a pair of walnuts may not be able to get a high enough price.

Anyway, no matter what Qu Jinglan was thinking, Qu Jingshui and Wen Liyan didn't intend to make him happy.

"Brother, is this?" Hearing this, Qu Jingshui seemed to understand something, and then looked at Qu Jinglan with a smile that was not a smile.

"It's nothing, I just want to see the value of this couple." Qu Jinglan seemed to be very calm, but the involuntary swallowing movements of his Adam's apple had already proved his guilty conscience.

Wen Liyan looked at it coldly, not very clear what happened, but from this look, he knew that the value of the walnuts might be related to something very important, and now, Qu Jingshui had the upper hand because of his identification results.

Qu Jingshui has the upper hand, because she has the upper hand.No matter what happened, Wen Liyan still supported Qu Jingshui.

"I see." Qu Jingshui responded insincerely, but secretly pleased.

Has it reached this point?Originally, I thought that Qu Jinglan would persist for a while longer.But since Qu Jinglan has started to tamper with his own property, it proves that he is close to a desperate situation.

Qu Jinglan, the proud son of the Qu family, the whole family turned towards him, stepped into the political circle, rose step by step under the care of the family, and trampled everyone else?

Heh, some people will accept their fate, but he, Qu Jingshui, has never been one to accept his fate.Sometimes, interests need to be fought for by yourself!Even if she avoided the edge and chose the antique industry at the beginning, isn't Qu Jinglan still unable to play with herself now, standing in this place, it is like bowing her head to herself?

The most ridiculous thing was that Qu Jinglan had no choice but to find Wen Liyan. Others might succumb to Qu Jinglan because of power, but Wen Liyan, as long as it was determined, would never change.He is a person from the past, how could he recognize Qu Jinglan?Not to mention giving Qu Jinglan face.Besides, Wen Liyan is even more stubborn in terms of identification. He has been influenced by many respected masters in the academy, so he has a big temper.

Thinking of this, Qu Jingshui took another look at Wen Liyan, thinking that this guy was really his lucky star.If it wasn't for him, he wouldn't be able to create such a big momentum in the antique world in such a short period of time, and then let Qu Jinglan bump into him.
