Chapter 28: Chemical Substances
Gu Huainan took a magnifying glass from the commentator's hand and observed it, and his posture looked decent.
"You know this?"
"A little bit of it. ”
Jiang Nuan looked at the vase, pointed to the dark red piece at the gap and said, "What is this, it looks like it's rusty." ”
Gu Huainan glanced at it, and moved the magnifying glass over by the way: "This is the porcelain that has been buried under the ground for a long time, and it has been formed for a long time, because the color is blood red, and the jargon is called blood Qin." ”
"How long does it take to bury this?"
"There will be more than a hundred years. ”
Jiang Nuan was surprised: "Isn't it true that as long as there is this thing on the antique, it can prove that the things are all objects from a hundred years ago?"
"So to speak. He nodded.
According to this calculation, even if this is not the gilded vase, it should be an antique from a hundred years, Jiang Nuan said secretly in his heart.
"Can this Xueqin be faked?" Jiang Nuan thought for a while and asked in a low voice.
Gu Huainan shook his head: "It shouldn't be, Master Wang also saw it just now." ”
Jiang Nuan pursed her lips, carefully stretched out a hand, wiped it on the dark red, her fingertips were stained with some scum red sand, she slid her fingertips down, put it under the tip of her nose and sniffed it.
Hua Lao at the scene had already quoted the reserve price and sat on the side to drink tea, letting these big bosses decide for themselves, because it was a private auction, it was not so formal.
After all, with the experience of the previous few times, if this is a fake, it will be a big loss.
There are also many people who keep asking Master Wang, hoping that the other party is talking more about possibilities, but Master Wang doesn't speak much.
At this time, Jiang Nuan smeared some black and red soil, and also smelled it, and a pungent smell of smoked dead people rushed in, and she almost sneezed.
Gu Huainan had already finished reading it, stood up straight at the moment, looked at her and smiled: "What's wrong with you like to smell everything?"
Jiang Nuan glanced at him and ignored him, she studied medicine, and her sense of smell was much sharper than that of others since she was a child, which also made it a lot more convenient for her to do research and what reagents to do.
As soon as the two of them finished reading, one of them suddenly shouted the price.
"Hua Lao, I'll give 40 million. ”
This opening, as if pressing the switch of the pause button just now, the other bosses also began to bid one after another.
"Forty-five million. ”
"Fifty million. ”
"I'll give sixty million. ”
"Eighty million. ”
Suddenly, a voice directly added 20 million, and Jiang Nuan was startled, because it was Gu Huainan next to him who shouted 80 million.
She looked at him and was surprised: "You want to buy it too?"
Gu Huainan smiled lightly and shrugged: "I'm a little interested, what if it's true." ”
Jiang Nuan was stunned, a little stunned.
The amount of 80 million made the scene pause for two seconds, and another 82 million shouted out, Gu Huainan spoke lightly again, directly 90 million, and Jiang Nuan, who listened to it, was terrified.
Her face was full of confusion at the moment, and she subconsciously pulled Gu Huainan's sleeve, who was stunned and raised her eyebrows: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Nuan looked at him and didn't speak, but the expression on his face that was full of words and stopped obviously telling Gu Huainan that she had something on her mind.
"What the hell is going on?" he looked at her for a long time.
Jiang Nuan hesitated, but still beckoned to him, and then stood on tiptoe to his ear and whispered a word, Gu Huainan was stunned for a moment, and looked at her suddenly.
"Are you sure?"
She immediately nodded: "I really don't understand the real fake at all, but my sense of smell is very sensitive, born like this, for this kind of thing, I have never made a mistake, I do smell it." ”
"Of course, I'm not sure if this antique needs to be used for preservation or otherwise, so I don't know. ”
Jiang Nuan told Gu Huainan what she had just told her that she smelled the smell of slaked lime and sodium hydroxide in the blood and soil of this gilded vase.
Although the taste is not heavy, she definitely didn't smell wrong, she didn't understand this business, and she was afraid of making a joke in front of Gu Huainan, but after thinking about it, she still told him.
Gu Huainan's face flickered, but he quickly returned to normal, but he was no longer participating in the competition, as if the person who was open and vigorous was not him when he made the bid just now.
Jiang Nuan naturally knew that this was probably related to what he had just said, so he couldn't help but be a little nervous, and pulled his sleeve again.
"Hey, I'll say okay first, I'm not an expert, I can't get together with the antique appraisal eight poles, in case this is indeed genuine, don't trouble me." ”
Gu Huainan looked at her funny, shook his head and didn't speak, but he had a plan in his heart.
He also knew that the two things that Jiang Nuan told her just now belonged to chemical elements, even if he was a layman in this regard, he also knew that there would be no chemical residues on the unearthed cultural relics.
Gu Huainan didn't notice it at all, and he didn't hesitate much, so he believed Jiang Nuan and her sense of smell.
This vase, in the end, was carried back by a proprietor who loved collecting cultural relics at a price of 120 million, and thus the auction ended.
In the car, Jiang Nuan sighed frequently, and Gu Huainan looked at her: "What's the matter?"
She sighed again: "It's the same person, that man, is actually willing to spend so much money to buy an antique that has not yet been finalized, whether it is real or fake." ”
"And I, on the other hand, was forced to ...... for about the same price, and sold my personal freedom to this hateful capitalist next to her, and the key was not that she owed it."
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but take out her unreliable sister who hadn't shown up again, and complained fiercely in her heart.
Although she didn't say what she said later, Gu Huainan could naturally understand her resentment and couldn't help but sneer.
The next day, Jiang Nuan returned to the life of the crew again, but two days later, Gu Huainan called her and told her that the authenticity of the vase last time came out, and it was still an imitation.
Jiang Nuan sighed when she heard this, and couldn't help but think of another possibility, she frowned: "Wait, if I hadn't told you that that day, would you have continued to compete? Is 120 million your bottom line?"
Gu Huainan didn't know what she wanted to say: "No." ”
For the Gu family, just one or two hundred million is nothing.
She took a deep breath: "You say, did I save you a lot of money?"
Gu Huainan came to his senses at this moment, and smiled meaningfully: "That's right, I really should thank you for this matter." ”
Jiang Nuan only felt that his heart was throbbing for a while, and he felt extremely regretful.
