Chapter 20: Ancient Books

"When will people come, should they come again in the evening?" Jiang Che said, Lin Zhen shook his head and said, "It's almost four o'clock, and we'll have dinner together at seven o'clock, how about it." ”

Lin Zhen and Jiang Che walked around the courtyard for a while, and after a while, two or three people came together, and two of them were old men who had seen Jiang Che last time.

"This time I invited a real master, and our masters are just a shrimp in his eyes, but he has already withdrawn from the rivers and lakes, and I also proposed to him that you are willing to show up to see you once. Lin Zhen said.

Several people entered the backyard one after another, exchanged a few words with Lin Zhen and looked at the cultural relics casually, while Lin Zhen and Jiang Che were waiting in the small pavilion at the door.

It was almost ten o'clock, and everyone had almost arrived, but the old man still didn't come, and Jiang Che was still waiting for the old man patiently.

At half past four, some people couldn't hold their breath anymore and began to be negative, "No matter how powerful you are, you can't do this, isn't this deliberately releasing pigeons to play with people?"

"Let's wait quietly for a while, after all, this old man is also an important guest of our club, so let's take a look at it at will. Lin Zhen said.

After a while, an old man dressed in a simple bow and bowed his waist slowly walked to the small pavilion, "Haha, you guys, I seem to be a little late." ”

"No, no, a master like you has that qualification even if we wait a little longer. "The man who scolded just now is now flattering.

Everyone didn't care about this, Lin Zhen took twelve people into the courtyard, and the group was also amazed when they saw such a spectacular backyard, it was so perfect.

The old man just smiled slightly, after all, he had seen a lot of things, and he didn't care about these things anymore, so this time he came to see the creation of these young people.

"Seniors, please give me a lot of advice, let's all go in first. Jiang Che said and led a group of people inside, and Lin Zhen also followed.

"Who is this kid? Could it be that he is the host of this meeting?" Many antique masters were still a little unconvinced by Jiang Che and this junior.

Lin Zhen smiled astringently and said: "No problem, this young man is not simple, to be honest, maybe he can't compare with his treasure appreciation skills." ”

"Master Lin Zhen, even if you want to take an apprentice to improve his reputation, it won't be like this, if you don't perform well on stage, it will be a shame. A tall man said.

"He is not my apprentice, so I specially invited someone to be in charge of the introduction of this meeting, there are some things that I can't understand, but this young man can see through it at a glance. Lin Zhen said and followed the crowd into the courtyard.

The old man who was the last to arrive walked in front, and Jiang Che led the way in front, "Young man, this conference is not a simple party, you have to be careful, young people don't be too crazy." ”

The old man looked at Jiang Che with a smile and said, Jiang Che glanced back and smiled without saying anything, "These antiques are all things of the Qing Dynasty, such things can be easily seen, of course, the first step is to identify whether it is true, and secondly, you can distinguish it by looking at the color and understanding the culture of the Qing Dynasty." ”

Some old men were still not convinced, and they were led by the nose by a young man, letting their faces go there, "We all know this, and we don't need you as a young man to talk about it at all." ”

These antique masters obviously didn't have any respect for Jiang Che, a young man, "Don't worry, we have three hours, I'll take you through the introduction first, and then you can ask me if you don't understand." Jiang Che said.

"Is it difficult for us of the older generation to be ashamed to ask you questions, I don't like to hear you talk like this. A middle-aged man said.

Jiang Che smiled slightly and didn't speak, it's useless to be angry with these people now, in the end, it's better to use his strength to convince them, the old man just smiled and didn't say anything.

Jiang Che led the people to introduce some simple cultural relics first, and then the rest of the things were those old things.

When Jiang Che fluently told the origin and history of these antiques, the eyes of the group just now were obviously straight, and many people apologized to Jiang Che, but some people thought that Jiang Che was just lucky.

"These antiques are quite old and wear and tear, but the most important thing to identify is to look at the material and the light and shade of the color. Jiang Che said, touching a curved bow with one hand.

The old man also nodded slightly, and the others didn't speak, Jiang Che said and introduced other things, which even the more famous archaeology professors here didn't tell the date.

But that's it, Jiang Che simply introduced the past, and everyone was also surprised by this Jiang Che, "Lin Zhen, did you tell him and let him act?"

Lin Zhen replied with a wry smile: "I don't have so much thought, it's true that this Jiang Che's treasure appreciation is a step higher than all of us here, and I'm also learning." ”

"It's a very good young man, he is indeed a young talent, and sure enough, no matter how old a genius is, he almost begins to admire it, haha. The old man said with a smile.

The group was stunned, the person who could make this master praise was a treasure master, Lin Zhen's sharp-eyed old man was a good sentence, and the young man in front of him could actually impress this old man.

"Little brother, I'm really sorry just now, originally we all looked at age, and most of them were older and stronger. The tall man said.

"Haha, it's nothing, I already expected it when I came to be the host this time, and there is no need to be angry, after all, I am still a junior and ask my seniors for advice. Jiang Che said with a smile.

After almost all the introductions, Jiang Che disbanded everyone and began to discuss those incredible antiques in groups of three or five, and the old man sat alone in a Taishi chair.

That is, next to Jiang Che, Jiang Che glanced at the old man, and the old man and Jiang Che also glanced at each other, and neither of them spoke.

"People of my generation are old, and sure enough, the world is still the world of young people. The old man sighed and said, Jiang Che smiled slightly: "Young people still have to ask the old man for advice." ”

"You are the second young man I have ever met in my life who can amaze me, and the one I was a proud disciple of mine back then. The old man looked up at the sky and said.

"I'm seventy-five years old this year, and that high-ranking disciple of mine has long since died, and he died at the age of thirty-six. The old man said that there was still some sadness in his heart.

"To tell you the truth, I want to ask the master some questions, I wonder if the master can help me answer them. Jiang Che said, and the old man glanced at it and nodded.

"What is the most important essence of treasure appreciation, and what is the meaning of treasure appreciation?" these questions also puzzled Jiang Che for a long time, could it be that there is no deeper meaning for treasure appreciation, just to make money.

"In fact, the current treasure is completely different from before, and now in this era of rapid development, most of our previous work is to comprehend the charm brought by antiques. The old man took out a teacup from his bag, took a sip of water, and said.

"At that time, it was just a collection of antiques, and there were no projects such as antiques as now, almost all for money and profit. The old man said.

"In this era, there is no way to comprehend the charm of antiques, my ability to appreciate treasures was originally the most ordinary in our older generation, but they all died first, and there is no talent in this young generation, and a Lin Zhen can find some doorways. If I had been ten years younger, I might have given him some guidance, but now it's not possible, I don't have so much energy and time, and God doesn't have much time left for me. The old man said.

Jiang Che nodded slightly, he was still at a loss for what the old man said, but he still acquiesced to show respect, how could there be charm in antiques.

"Little Brother Jiang Che, can you help me explain the identification method of this bell? A chubby man walked up to Jiang Che and said.

Jiang Che nodded, and walked over with this chubby middle-aged man, who was an antique professor who taught others how to identify antiques in the university, but in front of Jiang Che he was like a student seeking to study.

"The most typical feature of the ancient bell is that it is bulky, the sound is rough, and there will be nails on it, according to the order of these nails to distinguish the use of this ancient bell, for example, most of the bells in this arrangement are ringed in the early morning in the temple, and there are some other theater bells that are smaller and easier to transport. Jiang Che said and looked at the clock.

Look at the age to see what kind of material it is, generally look at whether there are traces of gasification or liquefaction on it, and some small details are the most important, and even a small crack can see which age is the product.

The chubby middle-aged man nodded, listening carefully to Jiang Che's explanation, and many people also came over to watch Jiang Che's explanation, at this time, Jiang Che was like a teacher, taking these students to explain.

The old man sat down not far away, looking at Jiang Che's explanation, he could hear it clearly, and smiled from time to time, because he saw from Jiang Che something that young people didn't have now.

Do things carefully, be careful, good at observation, and the most important point is to focus on doing one thing and not impetuous, and the temperament is very stable.

"That's probably it, you can understand it by looking at it yourself and studying it again, the most important thing is to rely on yourself, I can only explain here at most. After Jiang Che finished speaking, he wiped the sweat from his forehead.

In fact, Jiang Che's heart was still quite apprehensive, for fear that something would go wrong, especially those people just now, as long as they knew that Jiang Che could not speak well, he would definitely be able to magnify it tenfold and twenty times.

Now Jiang Che's treasure appreciation skills began to grow with his right hand, and he didn't need to use his right hand to see these things at all, he could look at them directly with the naked eye, and some small details would be displayed in his brain like a database of data statistics and analysis.

It's almost time to upgrade, and a lot of treasures have been identified, Jiang Che was stunned and entered the empty space, and the experience points on it can already be upgraded.

Jiang Che chose to upgrade, and there was another ancient book on the shelf, but Jiang Che didn't have time to open it now and exited this space, it is worth mentioning that this space seems to be a little larger than before, and there is an extra chair.

"Young man, if you are interested, come to me once the day after tomorrow, and I will arrange for someone to call you to pick you up. The old man said suddenly.

"Okay, I have a lot of questions for you. Jiang Che replied with a smile, Lin Zhen walked towards Jiang Che and took out a jade.

"Brother Jiang Che, this jade should be your reward today, you can see if you are satisfied. Lin Zhen said and handed over this fast jade to Jiang Che.

It is a piece of mandarin duck jade, which can be separated or combined into one, there seems to be some agate in it, and the color is also quite rich, as for the age, it should be a piece of mandarin duck jade that Taizong gave to Yang Guifei back then.

This is a good treasure, at least a jade pendant worth several million, and there are some small carved patterns on the back of the jade, which should be the portrait of Tang Taizong and Yang Guifei unexpectedly.
