Chapter 165: Cracking the Mechanism

"It's strange, even if it's repaired, it's worth tens of millions, how did it end up here?"

Zhou You walked over with a thick puzzle, and after a little judgment, he unceremoniously picked up the Yuan blue and white plate, and finally got a preliminary result after looking it up and down: "This repair method is definitely a master-level technique, if you don't look carefully, you will definitely not see signs of repair." However, the repair track on the plate is a bit weird, and if you look deeper, it will smell like it is deliberately broken, no wonder this thing was put here. ”

Teacher Bai saw that Zhou You had shifted his target, and it was still the most expensive thing here, so he immediately introduced: "This Yuan Qinghua Qilin pattern plate was recently purchased by Lao Yu from a collector, and the price is very cheap. ”

The treasures of famous collectors are generally appraised by appraisers, or some celebrities, and even most of them are auctioned from those well-known auction houses, and the chance of eye-catching is very small. But this is not absolute, some fakes are almost as good as the real ones, especially Cheng Fang, Zhu Fang, these high-end fakes that can almost be fake, ordinary appraisers, and even senior appraisers of large auction houses have a time to be eye-catching, and the ultimate victims are those collectors.

For example, Cheng Feihu's last Cheng imitation porcelain. The Cheng imitation porcelain was auctioned at a large auction house in Hong Kong, and there were all kinds of certificates, but it was a fake. And how the matter will be resolved in the end, it is estimated that only Cheng Feihu, the party, knows.

Zhou You became more and more puzzled, and asked, "Mr. Bai, if the purchase price is too low, there is no need for the other party to sell it to you." There are always some people in this world who want to pick up the leaks and think that they will go crazy will take the initiative to send them to the door, and they don't need to deliberately publicize them at all. ”

Teacher Bai seemed to be touched by something sad, and replied with a wry smile: "Indeed, but the problem is that he has lost a lot of money in business and owes me a lot of money." I thought that this Yuan blue and white unicorn pattern plate could offset all debts, but I didn't expect that I couldn't look at this Yuan blue and white unicorn pattern plate, and only gave a very low price. ”

Cheng Feihu asked curiously: "It is estimated that Mr. Bai also gave his peers a palm, but they all came to a definite conclusion, and in the end they could only be placed here in the dust." ”

Teacher Bai nodded and replied embarrassedly: "The problem is, after I tested carbon-14, I found that it was really an old thing from the Yuan Dynasty, which made me panic." ”

After speaking, Mr. Bai cast an expectant look at Zhou You.

Zhou You listened to it with a tight heart, thinking of the Yuanji blue glazed white dragon pattern plum bottle on his hand, thinking that there was something of the same type spreading. However, when I thought that my Yuanji blue glazed white dragon pattern plum vase was still passed down from Mr. Bai's hand, I could naturally guess what Mr. Bai must have seen, so I would even doubt the carbon 14.

Zhou You hurriedly launched the spiritual power perspective, and really saw something very interesting.

So, Zhou You said with certainty: "I'm not afraid to tell Teacher Bai that this Yuan blue and white unicorn pattern plate is a fake of the old and new combination, and it is very deceptive." ”

Teacher Bai smiled slightly.

When Zhou You saw Teacher Bai's smiling face, he knew that he had such a judgment before. However, he had received it, and it had been recovered at the delicate moment when his friend was in trouble, and if he openly said to the outside world that it was fake, it would definitely blow his reputation, and it was quite appropriate to say it through the mouth of Zhou You now.

Zhou You further explained: "The decorative techniques of Yuan blue and white are very unique. The combination of blue and white and carving, printing, porcelain sculpture, bas-relief and other techniques, the painting gives full play to the artistic effect of blue and white, and there are several styles of blue and white on white ground, white flower on blue ground or blue and white line drawing. In the decoration, the craftsman combines different types of utensils with different techniques, some use two or three methods to cooperate or several methods to concentrate in one, the carved lines are rough and powerful, the printing lines are round and durable, and the bas-relief effect has a strong three-dimensional sense. However, the lines up and down the Yuan blue and white unicorn pattern plate are inconsistent, the bottom is rough and powerful, but it is a little weak at the top, and the three-dimensional sense is not strong, it is simply a forced connection between the two things. If I'm guessing correctly, the chassis should be the real Yuan Qinghua, and the top is imitated by some characters with ulterior motives. ”

Teacher Bai's smile became brighter when he heard this.

Cheng Feihu is not a fool, he wanted to crack the key to it, and said very dissatisfiedly: "In fact, things don't have to be so complicated, it is enough for you to directly entrust a well-known auction house and let them give you a more authoritative appraisal, why bother." ”

Teacher Bai replied with a smile: "Actually, I have wanted to do this for a long time. It's just that these are the words of an old family, and the most important thing is that the evidence of carbon 14 cannot be broken, and there has been no satisfactory auction house, so it has been shelved until now. ”

"It is estimated that the material of carbon 14 is in the chassis!"

Zhou You muttered, which made Teacher Bai and Cheng Feihu pause.

Since the chassis is real, then the detection of carbon 14 is naturally correct, but everything else is price. The truth is very simple, but it is dark under the lamp.

The phone rings.

The embarrassed Teacher Bai was about to speak, but Zhou You's mobile phone rang, interrupting their communication.

Zhou You suddenly found that his business has been very busy recently, and in addition to dealing with those women, he also has people calling and harassing him from time to time. But this can't be blamed on others, Zhou You is busy all day long, and the only way to find him is through the mobile phone, which is also a helpless thing.

But this time it's not a hassle, but it's a good thing.

The phone call was made by Xu Lao, saying that the ebony box protected by the meridian mandarin duck lock had been successfully cracked, and he wanted to travel around and come over in person.

Zhou You saw that Xu Lao acted so cautiously, and he didn't even believe the reputable Cheng Feihu, so he didn't let him bring it over in the evening, but chose to let Zhou You go over and get it in person. Such a careful attitude accentuates the preciousness of the items hidden in the ebony box.

After Zhou You hung up the phone, he immediately wanted to apologize to Teacher Bai and Cheng Feihu: "Both, I'm sorry, it is estimated that we will go around to Guangzhou and go to the teacher's house." ”

Teacher Bai waved his hand and said, "I just want to go back to my hometown in Guangzhou to get a few things, and this is a very smooth trip." ”

Cheng Feihu seemed to have calmed down and said: "In this case, then I'm good for the company to see if the matter of the pharmaceutical machinery has any eyebrows?" I have already issued an order for my company to go to Japan to inquire, and it is estimated that there will be results in these two days." ”

"It seems that this round trip is really timely. ”

I thought that I would waste some time and cause trouble to everyone, but I didn't expect things to become so positive, but it was an unexpected gain.

"Put it away!"

Seeing that it was almost time for the matter to end, Mr. Bai put away the picture of the Emperor Zhenwu, put it in a bronze cylinder specially used to preserve calligraphy and paintings, and handed it to Zhou You.

Zhou You didn't have the slightest politeness, and took over with a hint of trembling.

Teacher Bai didn't think about it so much, and said: "Xiaoyou helped me a lot today, and this picture was also identified by Xiaoyou, so it is very appropriate to use it as a gift." Originally, I still wanted to continue to communicate, but looking at the looks of the two of you, I guess I'm tired enough today, so let's stop there. ”

Cheng Feihu was very satisfied with this result, and sighed: "Although I have spent a lot of effort and collected a lot of antiques in the past two years, there is really no masterpiece that can be called a unique masterpiece like the December Flower God Cup, even if the boutique is rare, none of them are satisfied." It seems that antique collectors are not just rich, but also have luck and luck. ”

Teacher Bai also agreed: "Yes, if it weren't for the original coincidence, I wouldn't have encountered an ancient masterpiece like the December Flower God Cup." ”

Regarding the sighs of the two, Zhou You also nodded in agreement.

Cheng Feihu saw that time passed quite quickly, and immediately opened and ended the topic: "Teacher Bai, I don't know when I will leave tomorrow?"

Teacher Bai replied: "Okay, I guess the two of you don't have the heart to spend the night in the old snail house, so the old man doesn't have to talk about those meaningless topics." Tomorrow morning at eight o'clock, the old decay will find you. ”

"Okay, then we'll take our leave!"

Cheng Feihu seemed to be afraid of any waves, and hurriedly said goodbye.

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye!"

The three of them parted.

Early the next morning.

After a good night's rest, Zhou You and Cheng Feihu greeted the arrival of Teacher Bai with a full of energy, and then six people and two cars, Cheng Feihu's Bugatti Veyron and Teacher Bai's white Lincoln, drove to Guangzhou together.

Teacher Bai sat on the ground and sipped fragrant tea while asking: "Xiaoyou, I heard that you helped Cheng Feihu see through a Cheng imitation last time, I don't know if there is anything wrong?"

Zhou You also took a sip of the atmosphere, and replied with admiration: "Good tea!" It is worthy of being the best gold inlaid jade, with a little sweetness in the sweetness, which makes people refreshed and energetic. ”

For Zhou You's acquiescence, Mr. Bai sighed: "I want to deal with fakes all my life, and I have studied for forty years to have today's achievements, but I may not dare to see Cheng Fang when I see it, I don't want Xiaoyou to have such excellent discrimination at a young age, the future really belongs to you." ”

Zhou You replied very humbly: "If it weren't for you old-timers who selflessly passed on your life's experience to us, how could we have made such remarkable progress." ”

For the politeness of Zhou You, Teacher Bai just smiled slightly.

Mr. Bai knows that he is very famous in the industry, even if he is not inferior to those treasure hunting experts who are on TV all day, but there is really an element of advertising in this. A transcendent figure like Xu Lao is not obvious at all, and he has no reputation among the common people, but he can be described as a Beidou-level existence in the industry.

Now, Mr. Xu's students are also up, but Teacher Bai is still standing still, how can he not be embarrassed.

Zhou You didn't want the atmosphere to be embarrassed, so he asked about the things that Teacher Bai was carrying: "Teacher Bai, you said before that you brought a few dead things and wanted to ask the teacher to help you palm your eyes, I don't know what strange things are worthy of your personal escort?"
