幸运购物者在一家慈善商店花1英镑买了一只花瓶，发现是18世纪一位皇帝的御用花瓶后，以48.4万英镑的惊人价格售出
A vase which was bought for just £1 in a charity shop has sold for £484,000 after it revealed that it was made for an 18th century emperor.
在被曝出为18世纪一位皇帝的御用花瓶后，一只以1英镑从慈善商店购得的花瓶最终以48.4万英镑售出。
The Qianlong Emperor's vase made its way to a store in Hertfordshire where it was picked up for £1 and then listed on eBay for a pittance.
在赫特福德郡的一家商店里，乾隆皇帝的这只花瓶被人以1英镑的价格买走，然后在eBay上以极低的价格挂出待售。
The vase sparked a bidding war, with the successful Chinese buyer paying a hammer price of £380,000.
随后，这只花瓶引发了一场竞拍大战，最终一位买家以38万英镑的价格成功拍下。
Extra fees took the overall figure handed over to £484,800 - six times the auction house's pre-sale estimate of £80,000.
加上额外费用，拍卖总价达到484800英镑，是拍卖行预估价8万英镑的6倍。
The shopper was initially unaware of its significance until he was inundated with offers for the elegant yellow vase.
这位顾客最初并不知道这只花瓶的珍贵，直到有人向他出价购买这只精美的黄色花瓶。
He took it to specialists at Sworders Fine Art Auctioneers' in Stansted Mountfitchet, Essex, where they told him it was Chinese imperial and made for the Qianlong Emperor, who reigned from 1735 to 1796.
他把这只花瓶带到位于埃塞克斯郡斯坦斯特德·芒特费切特(的Sworders Fine Art Auctioneers拍卖行专家那里鉴定，后者告诉他这只花瓶是为1735-1796年在位的乾隆皇帝所制作的。
The Qianlong famille rose vase is marked with a symbol that meant it wasn't for export, but for one of the emperor's palaces.
花瓶上刻着爱新觉罗家族的花纹图案，这意味着它不是用来出售的，而是供皇帝宫殿使用的。
It is inscribed with an imperial poem that 'praises incense' and two iron-red seal marks that read 'Qianlong chen han' or 'the Qianlong Emperor's own mark'.
It also reads 'Weiing weiyi' which translates to 'be precise, be undivided'.
花瓶上刻有乾隆皇帝的御题诗一首和两枚红色印章，一枚是“乾隆宸翰”（御印），一枚是“惟精惟一”
The pear-shaped vase is designed to be attached to a wall, with a flat back and floral decoration on the front.
花瓶形制如梨，瓶体背面平滑，前面有花纹，适于悬挂墙面。
Its yellow colour is significant as this was a special colour reserved for the emperor.
花瓶底色为明黄，是皇帝的御用颜色。
The Qianlong Emperor was the sixth emperor of the Qing dynasty. He abdicated in favour of his son, the Jiaqing Emperor, and died three years later aged 87 in 1799.
乾隆皇帝是清朝的第六位皇帝，禅位给儿子嘉庆皇帝，三年后于1799年驾崩，享年87岁。

People in NYC leave valuable things on the street all the time. I once found 4 Waterford crystal goblets on my front steps and an antique French pine dining room table on the sidewalk around the corner from my apartment. Years ago someone on my street picked up a painting worth 500k that someone had tossed in the trash. I wasn't the lucky one to find it but it DOES happen
在纽约，人们总是不经意把贵重的东西扔在街上。有一次，我在门前台阶上发现了4只沃特福德、水晶高脚杯，在公寓拐角处的人行道上，我还发现了一张老式的法式松木餐桌。几年前，在我住的那条街上，有人捡起了一幅价值50万英镑的画，有人把它扔进了垃圾箱。
