Chapter 768

Su Xinghui asked: "Uncle Hou, are there any good things recently?"

Hou Dali said: "Of course there are good things, do you want to go to my house to see?"

Su Xinghui had nothing to do in the afternoon anyway, so he nodded: "Okay, I will go to your house to see, but I didn't bring money with me today."

Hou Dali said: "It's okay, if you like it, I will keep it for you."

The two came to the Hou family together, and Hou Dali's wife asked in the room: "Why are you back again?"

Hou Dali said: "I met Little Su and brought him to see things."

Hou Dali took Su Xinghui into the inner room and opened his cabinet again, taking out the stamp album for Su Xinghui to flip through.

This time, there were indeed many new goods in Hou Dali's stamp album. Su Xinghui picked out the part with the highest value, put it into an empty stamp album, and said to Hou Dali: "Uncle Hou, keep these stamps for me, I will bring money to buy them next time."

Hou Dali nodded, put the stamp album aside, and took out his ancient coins for Su Xinghui to pick. Su Xinghui also picked out some with relatively high value.

Seeing that he had finished picking, Hou Dali said: "Little Su, does your friend still collect other things? I went to Jiangcheng last time and brought back some good things."

Su Xinghui became interested and asked: "What kind of things are they? Show them to me."

Hou Dali opened another cabinet and took out some things, including porcelain, scrolls, and some pen holders, inkstones, carvings and other cultural relics. He carefully put these things on the table and let Su Xinghui see them.

Su Xinghui put on a pair of white gauze gloves and carefully picked up a piece of porcelain to examine it. This is a Doucai porcelain, a porcelain jar with a lid. A dragon is coiled on the jar, as well as some melons and fruits, and there are some red decorative patterns on it, which looks exquisite.

The blue and white color on the porcelain jar is light and elegant, the patterns are drawn innocently, and the painting looks simple, but if you look closely, there is a sense of vivid, natural, delicate and elegant interest.

He took the lid off, then turned the jar upside down and looked at the mark on the bottom. The mark was written with the six characters "Da Ming Chenghua Nian Zhi", and he couldn't help but be shocked. This is a Doucai porcelain from the Chenghua period of the Ming Dynasty.

Doucai porcelain was not sought after by collectors in this era. The Ming Chenghua Doucai porcelain really became famous only 20 years later when a Ming Chenghua Doucai chicken cup was auctioned for a sky-high price of more than 200 million, making other Doucai porcelain rise in price.

Of course, the price gap between Doucai porcelain is also relatively large. The highest is more than 200 million, the ordinary is 20 to 30 million, and the poor quality may only be hundreds of thousands to millions. Su Xinghui did not expect to see a chicken cup here, as there are too few of them.

However, this porcelain jar also belongs to a rare boutique. It is complete, exquisitely painted, and natural in color. The most rare thing is that there is a mark of "Da Ming Chenghua Nian Zhi" on the bottom of the jar, which proves that it is likely to be an official kiln porcelain, because the folk kiln porcelain at that time rarely had marks.

Among porcelain, even if the quality of official kiln and folk kiln is similar, the price is very different. Therefore, this mark may be a price difference of millions.

Su Xinghui estimated that this piece could sell for at least 20 million or more when Doucai porcelain was popular 20 years later, which made his heart beat faster.

He suppressed his excitement and said: "Uncle Hou, where did you collect these things?"

Hou Dali said: "This was collected from an old friend of mine in Jiangcheng. He is also in the collectibles business. Two years ago, in order to do business, he borrowed money from others to buy a large batch of collections, many of which were stamps and coins. Didn't the stamp market fall sharply two years ago? All his money was trapped in it, and he lost a mess. He borrowed a lot of money from high-interest loans and was forced to pay debts by others. He had no choice but to transfer these things to me."

Su Xinghui nodded.

Hou Dali sighed: "Alas, it's all greed that caused the disaster. Two years ago, the stamp market rose sharply, and I almost moved my heart. Now I am really scared when I think about it. Doing business, we must be steady, at least we cannot borrow any high-interest loans."

Su Xinghui nodded: "Uncle Hou, you are right. By the way, how much can you sell this jar for?"

Hou Dali said: "My friend transferred these things to me for a total of 150,000. This porcelain jar was not priced separately. You look at other things first to see if you need them? If you don't need so many, you can choose a few and I will quote the price. It's mainly because all the money in my family was taken out, and I borrowed some money from friends, which is considered to save his emergency. I also want to sell it early, and I don't want to make any money."

150,000 is an astronomical figure in this era. Hou Dali can take out so much money, and he should have tried his best.

Su Xinghui then looked at the other collections. He had already made up his mind to buy all these things. Even if other collections are worthless, this one porcelain jar is enough.
