Chapter 10: Refusal

Chen Yunhan had actually seen the last thing a long time ago, and the conclusions of the two people were different, and she just said that sensational remark, purely to lay a foreshadowing.

At the same time, she was also very curious in her heart: Who is right about this last piece of porcelain, Jin Yiming or Tang Xin? Tang Xin so conclusively asserted that this porcelain was a high-quality imitation of the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty.

When Jin Yiming heard the result, he couldn't help but let out a long breath, and a smile of relief appeared on his face: This tenth piece of porcelain is obviously the genuine product of the Song Dynasty Ge kiln, but this young man asserts that it is a high imitation of the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty. Although he took much shorter time than himself, the last one was eye-catching, and he could save a little face......

So, he said to Tang Xin in a step-by-step tone: "Young man, antique appraisal is a science, and it is also a meticulous work, which requires profound knowledge, rich experience, meticulous observation, and a cautious and scientific attitude. As you just did, if you only look at each object for a little more than a minute, and then make rash conclusions, it will definitely not work, so you will have the last piece of porcelain in the eye.

"Of course, there's no denying that you're a genius and a rising star in antiques. In such a short period of time, you have correctly judged the authenticity of nine pieces of porcelain, although there is inevitably an element of luck in this, but it is indeed commendable. ”

Tang Xin smiled and said, "Teacher Jin, thank you for your praise and encouragement to me. However, with regard to the identification of the last piece of porcelain, I think that you have made an eye for it, and my conclusion should be correct. ”

Jin Yiming's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said in an angry tone: "Young man, why are you so ignorant of advancing and retreating? I dare not guarantee anything else, but I can tell the authenticity of the ice cracked porcelain in the Longquan Brother Kiln at a glance." Let's do this: wait a minute, let's take this porcelain and make a spectrometer measurement, if the results prove that it was fired during the Jiaqing period, I will worship you as a teacher, otherwise, you have to admit in public that you are a charlatan, okay?"

The smile on Tang Xin's face did not decrease, and said, "Mr. Jin, we only seek the truth of the matter, there is no need to make any gambling contracts." We will now use the spectrometer to determine the age of this porcelain, and no matter what the result is, you are my most respected master. ”

As soon as these words came out, Jin Yiming felt a little more comfortable, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go over and measure it now." ”

In the process of answering them, Chen Yunhan kept looking at Tang Xin, seeing that he was calm and decent, and in the face of Jin Yiming's aggressive words, he was neither humble nor arrogant, modest and polite, and his good impression of him increased a little more......

A few minutes later, Chen Yunhan, Jin Yiming, Tang Xin and a group of more than a dozen people walked into the exhibition hall of the art museum behind the audition site.

Here, this is the temporary headquarters of the audition of the "Baojian" column group.

On a table in the northwest corner of the showroom, there is an X-ray fluorescence spectrometer.

The X-ray fluorescence spectrometer is to check the tire, color and glaze of a ceramic respectively, and compare the results of trace elements analyzed with the composition data of ancient ceramics of various ages existing in the database, so as to find out the consistent time period and production area, so as to determine the "true face" of a ceramic.

It is said that the accuracy of X-ray fluorescence spectrometer for antique source and age and authenticity can reach more than 99%.

Chen Yunhan walked to the table where the spectrometer was placed, greeted a technician in charge of monitoring, and asked him to test the age and origin of the Longquan celadon ice crack tea can.

In order to maintain the objectivity and authenticity of the measurement results, Chen Yunhan did not tell the technician the results of Jin Yiming and Tang Xin's observation and identification, so as not to have a preconceived impression in his heart that would affect his judgment of the true age and place of origin......

The technician picked up the tea can, carefully placed it into the work compartment of the spectrometer, and then began to operate the instrument.

About twenty minutes later, the operator printed out the measurement results, and after carefully looking at the data on them, he said to Chen Yunhan: "The time period for the manufacture of this porcelain is the middle and late Qing Dynasty, roughly in the period from Jiaqing to Daoguang. The location of manufacturing should be Jingdezhen, Jiangxi. ”

This result is completely consistent with Tang Xin's judgment.

Therefore, as soon as the technician's words fell, the onlookers exclaimed "Ahhh

Jin Yiming knew that this spectrometer was very accurate and scientific in determining the age and origin of ceramics, and it was impossible to make mistakes, so he showed a look of astonishment on his face, staring at Tang Xin, who was calm and relaxed, and couldn't speak for a long time......

After being stunned for a while, Jin Yiming always felt that this matter was a bit magical and incredible, and decided to test Tang Xin again.

So, he took out a white jade wrench from the thumb of his right hand, handed it to Tang Xin and said, "Xiao Tang, this is a white jade wrench that I have worn for many years, please use your method to tell its origin and inheritance history." ”

Tang Xin nodded, took the wrench and looked at it carefully, thought for a while, and said to Jin Yiming: "This white jade wrench of yours is one of the nine jade wrenches that Pu Lin, the governor of Fujian, paid tribute to Emperor Qianlong in the 59th year of Qianlong. Later, Emperor Qianlong rewarded this wrench to a prince, and this wrench has been passed down in the palace. In the 80s, you found this wrench in a ghost market. The man who sold the wrench was the descendant of the prince. ”

As Jin Yiming listened, his eyes widened more and more, and the expression of surprise on his face became thicker and thicker.

After listening to Tang Xin's last sentence, he could no longer hide the excitement in his heart, and couldn't help but grab his hand and say in a tone that was a little out of tune with excitement: "Amazing! It's amazing! It's a good life to meet you, a genius in treasure appreciation, in your lifetime!"

Chen Yunhan looked at him with a smile and said, "Teacher Jin, since you value Mr. Tang's talent so much, why don't you take him as an apprentice?"

At this time, unconsciously, Chen Yunhan had a hazy affection for Tang Xin, who was handsome and dashing and had amazing skills, so he took the opportunity to take Jin Yiming as an apprentice.

Jin Yiming also had this intention, so he looked at Tang Xin with eager eyes and asked, "Young man, are you willing to follow me to further learn the knowledge and skills of treasure appreciation?"

Seeing the hesitant expression on Tang Xin's face, Chen Yunhan hurriedly said, "Mr. Tang, quickly agree! I can remind you: Teacher Jin does not accept apprentices easily." So far, he has only taken two apprentices, both of whom are now experts in porcelain identification. If you can become a closed disciple of his old man's family, your future future is limitless!"

Tang Xin thought for a moment and politely refused: "Thank you, Mr. Jin, for your kindness." It's just that I have a master now, and it's not good to switch to him again. In addition, I know that Mr. Jin is a professor and doctoral supervisor, and the apprentices you accept must also have academic requirements. However, I have only studied for two years and am half illiterate. If you are a teacher, you will be criticized. ”
