Chapter Seventy-Five: Antique Talk

"Besides, the trick in this Henan realm is not as simple as you see. Zhang Deli sighed and said: "It is said that Chinese culture is broad and profound, our ability to deceive people is also a long history, although it is not as good as Chinese culture, but it has never been broken from ancient times to the present, although some of the learning and art are not refined, and the ancestors are ashamed, but if you underestimate the heroes on the border of Henan with this, it is too arrogant, just take the antiques, really invite the masters, that is the face of the inside!"

"If you want to talk about Lizi, then I know a little bit about it. The little expert nodded and said: "I heard that there are some masters in Henan, who can make fakes really can't be real, what old materials are new, what chemistry is old, Wang Tiancheng is good at this old guy, if he is still there, we can ask." ”

"Those things, what do you ask him to do?" Zhang Deli sneered and said disdainfully: " These things, you will know sooner or later, although it is difficult to distinguish the fog cover of the clouds, but understand that it is those things, what old materials you are talking about are new, but it is to find some pieces that can no longer be sold, ground into powder, or simply use the soil in the old pit, according to the process of burning paper, if the material is collected full, with what machine to detect, there is no way at all, but this thing has a shortcoming, sometimes the workmanship is not careful, the old collector can see it, in Henan, there are many connoisseurs to buy those broken antiques, in order to use them to make materials, this method has a great disadvantage, The initial investment is really not small, even if it is damaged, it is an antique, but the things that are made, but there is a chance to sell at a high price, and it can be regarded as a return. ”

"That's still chemically old, it's more cost-effective. The little expert nodded and sighed: " Now not everyone knows how to collect this matter, many nouveau riche idle eggs hurt, just want to find something to set off themselves, so as not to be pointed at the nose and scolded for not being educated, they just watched a few episodes of TV, or they learned a little bit of appraisal by hearsay, and took out something casually, as long as it matches the little Tao in their minds, they have to say that it is true, and those big men, don't look at the calligraphy and paintings hanging at home, the bookcases are all tomes, but there are also some not long-sighted, not a joke, saying that there is a big man who was caught for embezzlement, and when I went to the house, there were a lot of antique calligraphy and paintings, but just a few pieces are genuine, angry that he had a heart attack in prison, and scolded those who gave gifts for not being things, but when he found the heads of those gift-givers, they were all wronged, and they didn't know how to do it. ”

"That's the most common. Zhang Deli smiled and said: " Now science and technology are developed, unlike in the past, if you want to be old, you have to find a pit to bury it for a year and a half, simply take something to soak, you can take it out and sell it in three or five days, but don't underestimate this boutique, I heard that there is a solution of copper sulfate, which can make the patina grow on its own, deep-rooted, it is not so simple to attach the epidermis at all, scrape it with a knife, scrape it to the end, and more carefully, find a tomb, after hollowing it out, it is not wasted, bury the imitation in the grave soil, and then plant some local plants on it, the root system extends into the package and entangled, after a year or two of digging it out, it is simply genuine！”

"That's too troublesome!" The little expert shook his head and said: "I think what you said is good, let's do a game, what we look at is human nature, if this pair is the kind of nouveau riche who doesn't understand anything, simply do some tricks and boasts, so as not to waste." ”

"It's 100% safe to do this. Zhang Deli shook his head with a smile and continued: " But where to find a fat sheep, it will take a lot of time, not to think about a stability, there is technology to do a little real, no technology to try to make up something, after all, collect those broken antiques and then grind and fire, are very few, either family history, or wealth, this is not the average person can play, many people have neither technology, nor money to get these, just think of a simple way, there is a kind of called the old bottom of the tire, this method is also ingenious, this antique is also graded, take the folk white porcelain, it is not sold at a high price, but if it is changed, there is a pattern of the official kiln, that is to turn over as a landlord, identify, that era of workmanship is also right, just because this later made up for the payment became valuable, generally speaking, it fell on the bottom of the guy, so it is called the old bottom of the tire, some are more simple, the bottom is true, the above are imitated, this truth is also simple, many experts like to see the authenticity from the bottom, it is considered to be accurate to touch human nature. ”

"Trouble, trouble. The little expert shook his head and said strangely: "If it's all like this, how can other people mix?

"That's what it's called grafting. Zhang Deli nodded and continued to explain: " Bronze is like this, a lot of damage can get the outside of the pulp down, they find a high imitation, paste the shell, and then the rest of the place is wrapped in mud, and then take to the antique market to say that it has just been dug out, relying on the exposed shell outside, some people feel that they have picked up the treasure, but this trick will not work when it meets careful people, but in Myanmar, many people use this trick to make fake rough stones, Myanmar's jadeite from the shell can be seen what is the pit material, if it is an old pit, it is valuable, the probability of jadeite is also large, some people will collect the material shell that people have solved, paste it on the broken stone, as the old pit shotIn this way, many people spend a lot of money to buy a big stone, after unlocking, they only say that they are unlucky, after all, playing jadeite has a knife heaven and a knife hell name, how experienced masters also have to go to the time, but the antiques are a little better, the experience is old, the risk has declined, unlike jadeite, that is always risky, not ordinary people can play, and the jade thing is too troublesome, but also to go abroad, many people have not even been to Beijing, the thought of going abroad is afraid, simply or focus on their own one acre and three points of land to get fake antiques。 ”

"If it had been more than ten years earlier, I am afraid that there would have been no such thing. Speaking of which, he is also a very technical guy, and he always boasts that he has a smart brain on weekdays, and there is a technology that others will not know, but now it is good, when he arrives in Henan, his ability is not a skill compared to others, so he is also sour: "It's really people's hearts are not ancient, people's hearts are not ancient!"

"If you want to push forward more than ten years, it will not necessarily be better. Zhang Deli laughed and said: " In 1994, there was an incident, this thing is a great joke, at that time there are only a few places in the country to buy old objects, Beijing's Panjiayuan is one, at that time there was an old gentleman in the National Museum, confident in the antique circle for decades, feel that he has a vicious vision, the fact is also the same, in addition to the young time had a little mistake, the whiter the hair, the road is getting smoother and smoother, he walked around Panjiayuan, he saw a terracotta figurine, this thing he looked left and right, all felt that it could not be fake, paid for it, and then ran back to the National Museum, called the experts over, everyone looked around, and said, This is what was taken away from the Northern Wei Dynasty tomb in Henan a while ago. ”

"Northern Wei Dynasty, that was more than 1,500 years ago. The little expert said with envy: "At that time, it was good, but it was not like now, they are all fakes, and there is no real one out of 10,000 pieces. ”

"Back then, people talked about giving, but not now. Zhang Deli smiled and continued: "He was anxious to call everyone out, just thinking about quickly mobilizing forces to find these things back, so as not to suffer losses to the country, at that time, the National Museum, the Palace Museum were involved, and the rescue went to the antique market to buy those pottery figurines of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the National Museum bought it three times, the Palace Museum bought it twice, and the two families spent more than one million together, in 1994, this million yuan, but a lot of money!"

"And then?" Zhang Deli smiled very badly, I knew at a glance that the money was probably spent in vain, but I still couldn't help but want to ask, so I couldn't help but ask.

"Then less than a month, everyone felt that something was wrong, originally this antique circle, if someone dared to buy it like this, the price of this thing is definitely a day to double, sometimes just ask the price and turn around can be different, but this Northern Wei Dynasty terracotta figurines are strange, day by day cheaper, and originally said that there is no goods and less goods The bosses actually began to sell it with great fanfare, and you can take out three or five at will, you must know that no matter how big a tomb is, it is impossible to have such hundreds or thousands. Zhang Deli laughed and continued: "So at this time, some people say that we can't continue to buy like this, and we have to go back and see what the origin of these things we bought." ”

"That's all fake, isn't it?" The little expert was taken aback, and said with a look of disbelief: "Even the experts can't see it, this method is too superb." ”

"It's not superb, people at that time thought simple, and did things almost the same, just say that the experts of the Forbidden City, why do they think it's true, it's because they have been relying on a few tricks to identify it for decades, and the fake and experts have struggled for so many years, and they have also figured out the law, that is, in the fetus, glaze, type, work, and old these aspects are fine, as long as it is exactly the same as those in the Forbidden City, these experts feel that it is true, after all, these experiences in the appraisal must be grounded, and this basis is the collection in the Forbidden City。 ”

Zhang Deli smiled and continued: " But the experts didn't know that they were caught by a sore foot, and then there was no way to make trouble, so they decided to get on the machine, and the result of the machine was that this batch of things had a history of 1,800 years, and now everyone was stupid, and it was not right at all, and then there was no way, so they found the Public Security Department, and the Public Security Department handled it as a big case, and sent a lot of people to Henan, as a result, they finally found a place, there was a person named Gao Shuiwang in Nanshishan Village, near Beibi Mountain in Luoyang, and this thing was made by him, but the things in his hand, although the experts could not see the truth or falsehood, but still could not pass the machine。 ”

"What's going on with those who have passed the machine?" I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, thinking that this thing was weird, it was all done by Gao Shuiwang, why was it different?

Gao Shuiwang is a worker, and he was also wronged after he was caught, saying that he was a high-imitation handicraft, and there was a sign hanging at the door that was also a handicraft factory. Zhang Deli shook his head and said with a smile: " The circle of antiques, there is also a division of labor, some are responsible for doing, some are responsible for selling, this is not necessarily the acquaintance of what is done and sold, it may be a transactional relationship, and then along Gao Shuiwang caught a few people, this is to ask out the end, at that time the machine used to detect antiques was also thoroughly studied by those people, and later it was found that if those high imitations have been X-ray, especially ceramics, a X-ray, glaze aged in a second for two hundred years, they find a hospital or simply take the plane to go through the security check, and the age will be made after the security check, but this method is not very accurate, so the batch of terracotta figurines, there are 1,800 years。 ”

"Then this Gao Shuiwang is also quite unlucky, the Palace Museum and the National Museum have lost such a big face, and they can't let him go, right?" The little expert shook his head regretfully and said: "If you want me to say, this thing, you still have to learn from us, just run away, and you can't find it." ”

"It's hard to say. Zhang Deli smiled and said: " He just said so, maybe he met a stupid, and he would sell fakes as real, but compared to his peers, he did a lot better, in Henan, this kind of small workshop specializing in high-imitation objects is everywhere, a few years ago, we heard a joke in Shenzhen, but also in this antique circle, said that it was at Shenzhen Airport, a Hong Kong man was invited to the office, and then unpacked and took out two bronzes, all of which were with inscriptions on the merchant agent color, the Hong Kong people panicked all of a sudden, and said that this is a handicraft they bought, and they were taken back to commemorate it, and the police saw the appearance of the Hong Kong people sweating profusely, so they simply handed him up, and then quickly found an expert, this Hong Kong man was detained overnight, and then the next morning, two people came, saying that the appraisal was finished, and they were going to be shot haha!"

"It's not so exaggerated, that thing must not be real, right?" The little expert glared at him in astonishment and said: "If you get two bronze weapons, you will be shot, this Hong Kong buddy is scared to death!"

"I peed my pants in fright, haha. Zhang Deli also laughed and said: " That thing is naturally not true, but those experts think it is true, if it is something from the Shang Dynasty, the problem of taking it out is really big, but it will not be shot, after all, it is Hong Kong people, although they are all Chinese, but the treatment is not a little bit worse, they say this, but also want to scare and scare the Hong Kong people, ask him where this came from, so that Shun Teng touched the melon to solve a big case, and then this person confessed, saying that a cultural relics dealer found it for him, and then it was a big case, the Ministry of Public Security used the 100th person, and finally caught this guy in Henan, and then, Shun Teng touched the melon, and then went to Beibi Mountain。 ”

"There are talents in this place of Beibi Mountain!" As soon as he heard that it was Beibi Mountain, the little expert shook his head and sighed, and said: "How can you just pull out a technical one, it is all Beibi Mountain." ”

"There are ancient tombs everywhere in Beibi Mountain, and it is strange to see it from a young age. At this time, Su Shanshan glanced at the little expert, snorted coldly, blinked his eyes, patted his little hand, and said to Zhang Deli: "Then, what happened then, tell me about it!"

Then the guy pitifully led the way, and together arrested a man named Tie Guan Li, Tie Guan Li naturally did not admit it, and took those policemen to the village, pointed to his backyard and said, he is a do-antique, but that is also sold as a handicraft, a thousand yuan, and will definitely not sell hundreds of thousands like the cultural relics dealer, and then interrogated several times, plus the cultural relics dealer and Tie Guan Li confronted each other, Tie Guan Li admitted, but what he admitted was not fraud, but fraud. Speaking of this, Zhang Deli smiled and said, "Guess what's going on?"

"Where can we guess, it's not like everyone is lying to each other. The little expert waved his hand angrily and urged: "Say it quickly!"

The antiquities dealer insisted that he had seen Tie Guan Li dug up from the ancient tomb with his own eyes, and said that he would never forget how hard they worked in the mountains for the rest of his life, otherwise he would have slaughtered the Hong Kong people for so much money, although it is a precious cultural relic, it is also considered a high price on the black market. Speaking of this, Zhang Deli laughed a few times first, and then said with a smile: "The cultural relics dealer cried as he spoke, saying that he hadn't eaten for several days, and he lived on the grassroots, deep in the mountains and old forests, and was so scared that he couldn't sleep at night, and the one who cried was sad." ”

"And then?"

Then Tie Guan Li burst out laughing on the spot, and with such a smile, he couldn't hide all the explanations. Zhang Deli laughed and said: "Tie Guan Li said on the spot, I lied to you, the tomb was dug up a long time ago, I took you in to think about selling more money, in fact, the mountain is not big, you are a foreigner who does not know the way, I took you around for a few days and you think this is the deep mountain and old forest, the surrounding is not without food, the back of the mountain is a fruit forest, you don't know it." Then after Tie Guan Li finished speaking, the cultural relics dealer was stupid, his face was crying and laughing, and he was useless, and everyone who came out to see him thought he was a liar. ”
