Chapter 80 [Surrender to the State]
It takes about an hour.
At the moment, it is a guest room in the Museum of Antiquities.
The three of them sat nervously and expectantly.
There were three old people walking in the aisle, the middle was naturally Hu Yifeng, and the two next to him were also wearing glasses and looking like they were fifty or sixty years old.
But in comparison, both age and seniority are naturally lower.
"Here, that's it!"
Old Man Hu pushed the door in, nodded and smiled at Chen Luoping and Li Botong.
"Let me introduce to you, Song Rentao, who has unique insights into the study of ancient cultural relics, especially jade tripods, and is currently working as an appraiser of ancient cultural relics in us. ”
"This is Professor Chen Bin, in addition to working as a teacher at the school, he is also our part-time cultural relics appraiser. ”
At this moment, Li Botong and the three of them shouted very politely: "Old Song, Professor Chen!"
"Come, take out your things and I'll take a look!" Professor Chen Bin smiled, and walked to the table next to him and rolled up his sleeves, obviously trying to show off his skills.
Chen Luoping took out his jade tripod and displayed it in front of everyone.
Old Man Hu also picked up the magnifying glass he carried with him and studied it carefully, he nodded and said, "The craftsmanship is not exquisite, what's the matter with these runes." ”
Song Rentao, who has a special study of Yuding, frowned.
Song Rentao was silent, but the more serious he looked.
He even put on gloves and carefully held up the entire jade tripod, looking around at three hundred and sixty degrees.
He said in a solemn tone: "This is not in line with the characteristics of the cultural relics of our country's dynasties, the texture and texture are very real, if it is an old and shoddy product, this kind of mistake should not be made!"
Professor Chen also nodded with a smile and said: "That's right, just copy the Song Ding, or the Han Dynasty Yuding, he is completely different from the four, not to mention deceiving insiders, it is difficult for outsiders to deceive." ”
"But it's a bit like the runes in the ancient Shu instrument in the Sanxingdui cultural relics. ”
As soon as these words came out, Chen Luoping was also a little excited: "Yes, yes, yes, I have checked all these runes, and they are indeed consistent with those in the ancient Shu cultural relics." ”
"And no matter how I look at it, it feels like it's genuine, it's corroded in his crevices, and the color is layered, if it's directly old and corroded as a whole, it's not the effect. ”
In this way, Chen Luoping began to describe some of his judgments and understandings of this jade tripod one by one.
In fact, he did a lot of work before he made a purchase.
But he didn't communicate much with other people, mainly because he was worried that he would leak his mouth, so he let others buy this jade tripod.
In these years, my brothers have to be on guard, not to mention anything else.
Old Man Hu looked a little serious, because he knew that the other party had designed to raise the price when he bought it.
If it weren't for the young fortune teller, he thought this jade tripod was worth studying. He wouldn't let the other party come to the museum.
Mr. Hu suggested: "Then do an in-depth test to see the degree of corrosion, permeation, as well as the adhesion density and precipitated material composition." ”
In the process of oxidation and erosion, the density and hardness of this jade will change, and the color difference between the real ancient jade and the figure can be distinguished.
Moreover, when ancient cultural relics are unearthed, they will adhere to a part of the precipitated material, and the adhesion is very strong.
The adhesion made of artificial fakes has poor density and adhesion.
Of course, these are all well-known methods.
Appreciating the authenticity of such ancient cultural relics, we also need to start from the value and historical significance, it can be said that without ten or eight years of industry experience precipitation, we can only be laymen.
……
However, what made them ecstatic!
The results of the test show that it is very likely that this is really the ancient Shu cultural relics in the Sanxingdui culture.
Everything in that era was confusing, and now the Sanxingdui ruins have been banned from excavation and investigation.
Naturally, this has led to all kinds of bizarre speculation.
Some say it's a legacy of the previous civilizational era.
Because among the ancient artifacts excavated at that time, there were instruments that could be used to calculate astronomy and geography.
This incident directly caused a sensation among some of the old-timers in the entire Institute of Antiquities.
Even the curator himself came over and rushed over, and things got out of hand.
Old Man Hu also smiled at them and said, "Good news, your jade tripod may really be a cultural relics and antiques of ancient Shu cultural relics." ”
"We have contacted the experts of Sanxingdui Cultural Site to come and identify it!"
"Once confirmed, it will be worth millions, but it is still recommended that you hand over the cultural relics to the Sanxingdui Ancient Ruins Cultural Relics Museum!"
"After all, such ancient cultural relics have high archaeological significance, and the loss of them to the people is a major loss to the entire country and even the world's archaeological community!"
Chen Luoping's eyes showed a crazy joy.
80,000 yuan bought a collection worth millions, and sure enough, I didn't look away this time.
Li Botong next to him was also dumbfounded!
Lying in a groove, he almost thought he had misheard.
Surrender to the state?
When I found out that the ancient cultural relics were handed over to the state, I thought that there was only TV news, but I actually ran into it.
Li Botong hurriedly pulled him and whispered: "Lao Luo, I don't think it's better to appraise it, I'll let you hand it over later!"
How could Old Man Hu not know the thoughts of this group of young people, he also smiled with emotion: "If you want to take it to auction, I don't object to it!"
"But I also have to remind you that since you are a fan of antiques, you should know that its value lies in the research and collection, not in how much it sells for money. ”
"If you are willing to surrender to the state, we will compensate and reward you. ”
Chen Luoping took a deep breath, he was also thinking about another thing, that is, the two tips given by the master.
One refers to his "blessing in disguise", and he was deceived and spent a high price to buy the jade tripod, which is now confirmed to be genuine.
This is indeed a blessing in disguise!
Another tip is that he has the natural potential to become an expert in antiquities.
He was thinking that if he really had such a talent, he would probably have to take advantage of it.
He suddenly smiled whimsily: "Old Hu, can I dare to make a request?"
Old Man Hu smiled and said, "You say!"
Chen Luoping gritted his teeth and said: "What the master means is that my convenient vision and talent for appreciating cultural relics are still good, and I think that since this jade tripod is mine, I am willing to hand it over to the state." ”
"But I have a small request, let me stay in the museum to study and study, do something good, mainly hope to deal with antiques more, learn more. ”
Old Man Hu was stunned for a moment, thinking that it was some condition.
The old man smiled happily: "It's not a big problem for you to stay in the museum, and it can be regarded as a great contribution to my country's cultural relics, I will communicate with the curator!"
"If you really have the ability to do this, you can take a qualification certificate and you can directly turn into a regular. ”
"That's really great!" Chen Luoping nodded excitedly in thanks.
In his opinion, the money from the auction is more inclined to take advantage of this opportunity to enter the circle of this authoritative field than to hand over the money to the state.
You know, this is the real meaning, the authoritative field of antiquities.
Even in many cases, the value of these antique collections circulating in the market depends on how these experts and professors evaluate the price, and the folk hobbyist collectors are willing to pay a high price.
If you can have the opportunity to enter this circle, your status will be completely different.
Li Botong and Chen Yehua were also unexpected surprises.
"Lying grass, it's okay, Lao Luo!"
"Senior collectors in the industry, will they give awards and honorary certificates when the time comes!"
Chen Yehua also said jokingly: "Now you can't call Lao Luo, you have to call Teacher Luo, Professor Luo! Sanxingdui ancient cultural relics have been excavated!"
"Wouldn't it be the focus of attention when you go to the antique street in the future!"
They even joked: "If we open a shop, you can come around more often, and I think this business will be booming!"
Li Botong also said with a smile: "I have thought about it, and there is a head!"
You must know that there are many rich people, but they are qualified to talk to Old Man Hu, and there are not many opportunities to stay in the Museum of Antiquities Research.
This is a stepping stone, and blending into the circle of this authoritative field is not something that one or two million can do.
No matter how many people envy it, they can't envy it.
It's definitely a great deal.
