Chapter 51: The King's Sword

After solving Wen Yihui's matter, Lin Che went downstairs to find Li Shulei, and only when he arrived downstairs did he know that Ning Feihong's birthday speech, cake cutting and other ceremonies were over.

looked at Li Shulei, she got along well with the rich second-generation classmates, and was eating cake, Lin Fan smiled and was relieved.

"Xiaolin!" Ning Feihong walked towards Lin Fan with an apologetic face, "There are too many guests, and I haven't gotten out until now, I don't take good care of you, please forgive me." ”

"It's okay, don't mind me. ”

"Let's go, I'll take you to meet Qingzhou businessmen, and if you do business in the future, you will also have personal connections. ”

Lin Fan was devoted to cultivating the Tao, and where did he think about doing business, he politely refused: "I have good intentions, I don't like people who are useless to socialize." ”

Ning Feihong was embarrassed for a moment and said, "Then you go to the study and wait for me, among the birthday gifts I received today, there are a few treasures, which will open your eyes later." ”

Hearing that Zhenbao Lin Fan was interested, I don't know if there will be a spiritual treasure magic weapon that he wants.

"Alright, I'll go to the study. Lin Fan went to the study.

Pushing the door in, there was an old man sitting on the sofa, the old man was gray-headed, wearing a plain gown and a pair of cloth shoes, looking like an old pedant.

Seeing someone come in, the old man got up and said with a smile, "Hello." ”

"Hello!" Lin Fan also greeted

After sitting down, the old man introduced himself, his name is Du Fangping, is the boss of Tianbao Zhai, Tianbao Zhai is specialized in selling antique calligraphy and paintings.

Lin Fan thought about it and didn't have anything to introduce, so he said, "My name is Lin Fan, and He Ning is always friends. ”

Du Fangping was stunned in his heart, is it so simple?

The person who was called into the study must have a lot to do with it, and he should be a peer when he waits to see the treasure.

"Mr. Lin, you are also a person in the antique Dao, right?" Du Fangping said tentatively.

"I just understand a little. Lin Fan said truthfully.

Du Fangping's heart tightened, and there was another competitor?

Ning Feihong is good at antiques and guqins, which is known in the circle, and he only asks Du Fangping of Tianbao Zhai and Jiusanlong of Dilong Pavilion to buy antiques from two antique shops. Could it be that there is another one?

So Du Fangping tried again: "Mr. Lin likes those antiques?"

"Porcelain, such as Tang Sancai, blue and white porcelain, ancient swords, etc. ”

"Then look at what kind of porcelain is on the cupboard over there. Du Fangping asked tentatively.

A good antique boss must have a good level of eye-catching.

"It's blue and white porcelain. Lin Fan replied.

"Hahahaha...... Du Fangping got up with a smile and walked to the side of the cabinet and said, "Which dynasty is it blue and white porcelain?"

As he spoke, he opened the cabinet, took out the blue and white porcelain and handed it to Lin Fan.

Lin Fan can only be regarded as a half-understanding of antiques, but he can feel the passage of time in the object, if it is an antiquity, Lin Fan can feel the time after the precipitation of history, if it is a work of art left by a famous craftsman, then there will be the spirit of the craftsman, the mind in it.

For example, the ancient divine soldier Mo Evil Sword, you can feel the blood, killing, and thoughts of the sword caster.

"Hahaha...... Do you want to watch it for so long?" Du Fangping was relieved, even if this person surnamed Lin was a competitor to open an antique shop, he was not a master.

"You just asked me what dynasty I belonged to, right?" Lin Fan raised his head and asked.

"yes, do you see what dynasty it is?"

"Well, it's modern, and the firing time is within 3 years. Lin Fan didn't feel a little "ancient" on this blue and white porcelain.

"Hahahaha...... Mr. Lin, it seems that you are a fledgling. This is a blue and white porcelain fired in Longquan kiln at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, let me talk to you. Du Fangping began to talk with a proud face, "The identification of porcelain is mainly from the perspective of vessel type, ornamentation, tire glaze, style and other aspects......

talked a lot, drooling, and Lin Fan's brain was dizzy when he listened.

No matter what you say, this blue and white porcelain is fake, but the imitation is very real.

"Mr. Lin, it's not an easy thing to identify antiques, you have to start from the basics, from history, from your eyes......" Du Fangping spoke triumphantly for more than ten minutes, and then patted Lin Fan's shoulder seriously and said, "Young man, take your time, after grinding, you will also have the level of appraisal like mine." ”

Lin Fan sneered, "Okay, I'll learn slowly." ”

There is no need to argue with him either.

Because it was close, Lin Fan felt a slight wave of energy fluctuating in Du Fangping's chest.

I saw that there was a red line on Du Fangping's neck.

So Lin Fan asked, "What are you wearing around your neck?"

Du Fang generously took out the pendant and said, "It's just a worthless ice jade." ”

Ice jade is a colloquial name for scrap. After the jade is made into handicrafts, the rest is waste.

Lin Fan's heart tightened, where is this jade, this is the scales on the body of some kind of divine beast, after the weathering of time, it has become crystal clear, and it looks like jade.

Lin Fan didn't know exactly what kind of divine beast's body scales, but he could feel the energy emanating from the scales.

It's good to be a medicine and a medicine.

This scale can be used as medicine to make elixir!

Lin Fan touched his chin and wanted to get the scales, but he couldn't think of any means to use for a while, so he directly stunned Du Fangping, and snatching it was the most convenient, but Du Fangping should be Ning Feihong's friend, so it didn't seem authentic.

"Mr. Lin likes this thing?" Seeing Lin Fan looking at the pendant intently, Du Fangping asked with a smile.

"I like it!"

"Then I'll give it to you. Du Fangping naturally didn't know that this was the scales on the body of the divine beast, and even if he knew, it would be useless to him.

"Really?" Lin Fan snickered.

"I'm embarrassed to give you something that isn't valuable. ”

"No, no, no, I love it. ”

Du Fangping took off the scales and handed them to Lin Fan, Lin Fan was overjoyed, and he would be rewarded for a trip today.

"Thank you, Boss Du. Lin Fan thanked him.

"Don't be so polite. ”

When he said this, two men came in, one was about 50 years old with a big belly, and the other was about 80 years old with gray hair, but his eyes were sharp, he was in good spirits, he was wearing a tunic and looked like an authority figure in a certain field.

When Du Fangping saw the old man in the tunic suit, he immediately stood up, put his feet together, and said respectfully: "Teacher An, why are you here?"

This old man's name is An Guotai, he is the first person of Chinese antiques, the folk antiques call him the king of leaks, and the antique industry in the main hall calls him "God's Eye", so the things he has identified are the most authoritative.

That beer belly is Jiu Sanlong of Dilong Pavilion, and Du Fangping is a competitor.

"Let's just sit down with Xiao Jiu. ”

Everyone introduced each other, and Jiu Sanlong was also puzzled in his heart, thinking that Lin Fan might also be in the antique business, otherwise how could he be called into the study?

After the four of them chatted for a while, Ning Feihong walked in with Steward Xu pushing the door, and when he saw An Guotai at the door, he was a little surprised: "An Lao, welcome, welcome, what a rare guest." ”

Ning Feihong stepped forward to shake hands enthusiastically.

An Guotai invested in Dilong Pavilion some time ago, and also hung the name of a long-term appraiser, that is, when it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of the item, he just helps to identify it.

From An Guotai's point of view, he naturally hopes that Ning Feihong, a big customer, will lean towards his side, so that he can make more money.

At the same time, he can also get closer to Ning Feihong.

"Elder An, you came just in time, I received a few treasures today, how about you help me identify them?" Ning Feihong motioned to Steward Xu to bring the box over.

Steward Xu held a large box and put it at Ning Feihong's feet.

Ning Feihong took out a quaint box and opened the box, which contained a string of amber Buddha beads.

Lin Fan glanced at it, and already felt a Buddhist aura attached to the Buddha beads, needless to say, it must be genuine.

"Real!" An Guotai raised his eyelids a few times, but he didn't start it, so he said it directly.

Ning Feihong praised him: "An Lao, it really deserves to be the eye of God." ”

Then he took out the bronze Otaru Ding, Aries Clotted Jade Ruyi and other treasures, all of which are valuable antiques.

Du Fangping was sitting on pins and needles, sweating on his forehead, it was obvious that An Guotai was here to support Jiu Sanlong.

If Ning Feihong stopped asking himself to buy antiques, he would lose tens of millions of dollars that year.

Let's take a look at Tang Yin's "Both Sides of Yangzhou". Ning Feihong carefully spread out the calligraphy and painting, and suddenly the pen and ink were conveyed exquisitely.

"An Lao, take a look, is this painting an authentic work of Tang Yin? Boss Zhang, who gave it to me, said that he had worked hard to find it from the people. ”

An Guotai raised his eyebrows, lowered his head, put on several times the glasses and looked at it, a few minutes later, he raised his head, took off the multiple glasses, and said: "Old man, I have seen so much, it is better to let Boss Du slap the eyes." ”

Du Fangping was shocked, his appreciation of ancient paintings was still at the middle level, and he didn't know much about Tang Yin's brushwork as a painter.

"Teacher An, you are highly respected, you should come!" Du Fangping kicked the ball back.

An Guotai's face sank, and he said: "Boss Du, are you not sure that the truth is fake, as the owner of an antique shop, if you don't pass the eye-catching level, you will accept the fakes and sell them to Mr. Ning, wouldn't Mr. Ning suffer a loss in the end?"

An Guotai's words are to cut off Du Fangping's financial route.

After Ning Feihong heard it, he felt that it made sense.

Lao Tzu spent so much money to buy a Xibei goods, it wouldn't be a big injustice.

So Ning Feihong also spoke, "Boss Du, please take your eyes." ”

An Guotai smiled slyly, looking at the embarrassed Du Fangping, he already knew in his heart whether this painting was real or fake.

Du Fangping had no choice but to bite the bullet, he also put on several times the single glasses, and looked carefully at the ink, paper, layout, etc.

A quarter of an hour passed, and Du Fangping's robe was attached to his back.

"Can't you say it yet?" An Guotai said with a cold snort, "It's a shame that you've been in the industry for decades." ”

Du Fangping hesitated, looking at the paper is an old thing, and the layout is like the paintings of the ancients, but the question is whether it is the authentic work of Tang Yin.

Tang Yin was a famous painter in the Ming Dynasty, and many literati in the Qing Dynasty imitated his paintings, which means that even if this is an ancient painting, it is difficult to determine whether it is an imitation or an authentic work.

"Boss Du, is it difficult to identify?" Ning Feihong was also impatient.

An Guotai smiled gloomily.

He saw early on that this was a fake of Tang Yin imitated by people in the Qing Dynasty, as long as he found a special appraisal agency, he could find out which age the paper and ink were identified, which Du Fangping also knew.

In desperation, Du Fangping gritted his teeth, thinking that the person who sent the painting would not send imitations to Ning Feihong, "Mr. Ning, this painting is genuine." ”

"Is it Tang Yin's real work?" An Guotai asked.

Without waiting for Du Fangping to speak, Lin Fan quickly continued: "How can it be Tang Yin's real handiwork, Boss Du told me before you came, Tang Yin's painting is here, this painting looks like Tang Yin's brushstroke, it looks fake, right, Boss Du." ”

Lin Fan lightly kicked Du Fangping under the table, Du Fangping's brain was hot, and he said in a daze, "Well, it's indeed not Tang Yin's true work." ”

"It should be imitated by a boring painter in the Qing Dynasty, right?" Lin Fan motioned to Du Fangping again.

Although Lin Fan doesn't know how to draw, he can feel the age of the paper, Tang Yin is from the Ming Dynasty, and the feeling that this piece of paper gives Lin Fan is from the Qing Dynasty, so Lin Fan naturally knows that it is an imitation.

"Hmm...... Well...... Be...... Yes. Du Fangping panicked in his heart, and followed Lin Fan's words hesitantly.

The reason why Lin Fan helped him was to repay Du Fangping for the scales he gifted.

An Guotai frowned and said, "Then what if I say that this painting is Tang Yin's real handiwork?"

Du Fangping's heart trembled, and he almost changed his words.

Fortunately, Lin Fan immediately said: "Then you are a big fool, you can't see it if it's so fake, what kind of eyes do you have." ”

"What did you say?"

An Guotai's beard trembled, "This Mr. Lin doesn't give the old man face when he speaks, I don't know where he comes from." ”

Ning Feihong naturally stood on Lin Fan's side, "Godman, my good friend, good confidant. ”

An Guotai originally thought that Ning Feihong would definitely scold Lin Fan, but he didn't want to slap his face, Ning Feihong looked like he would rather not associate with you An Guotai than blame Lin Fan.

"So is this painting the real one of Tang Yin?" Ning Feihong asked.

"No, it's a Qing Dynasty imitation. An Guotai gave the answer, wondering in his heart, did Du Fangping really see it?

"Well, it seems that Boss Du is still very discerning. Ning Feihong was very satisfied.

Du Fangping's face was embarrassed, he was puzzled in his heart, before they came in, he only talked to Lin Fan about blue and white porcelain, and he didn't say anything about Tang Yin's painting at all, why could he see that it was an imitation?

Thinking of this, Du Fangping's heart was shocked.

Lin Fan is a master of eye-piercing, not only can he see that it is an imitation, but he even tells the age of the imitation.

Thinking of the old qualifications in front of Lin Fan before, his face turned red with shame.

"Godman?" An Guotai looked at Lin Fan contemptuously, "Lin Shenman, why don't we compare." ”

It was the first time that An Guotai was scolded as a "big fool", and this heavy humiliation made him angry.

"Okay, then please ask Mr. Ning to take out the next item, and we'll take a look at it together." Lin Fan smiled calmly.

"Good!" An Guotai didn't believe that he would lose to a junior.

Ning Feihong was also interested, stood up, walked to the bookcase, took out a wooden box more than one meter long, folded it back and put it in front of the table, opened the wooden box, and took out a Qin sword.

"This Qin sword was bought by an old farmer in Shaanxi Province a few years ago, and the old farmer said that this Qin sword was handed down from his ancestors, and said that it was the king sword created by Qin Shi Huang after he unified the six countries. I just wanted to have fun and buy it and play with it. Let's take a look at whether it is Qin Shi Huang's king sword. ”

Although this Qin sword is complete, it is rusty, the blade is dull, and it looks like scrap copper and rotten iron.

After An Guotai took the Qin sword in his hand and looked at it for a while, he said disdainfully, "Ridiculous, how can this kind of broken sword be Qin Shi Huang's king sword." Legend has it that the king's sword is the world's first swordsmith Mo Tianfan to create a divine weapon, the sword has a unified world, the four seas are flat eight big seal characters, but this broken sword how can there be handwriting. ”

Jiu Sanlong added: "The sword of King Goujian of Yue, after thousands of years, it is still sharpened like clay, and the blade is cold, if this is really the king's sword, how can it be so rusty, and the blade is frustrated? Could it be that Qin Shi Huang is a fool and can't distinguish between a sword and a bad sword?"

"I knew that the old farmer was fooling me, and I didn't take it seriously!" Ning Feihong said with a smile, "Then I'll take an antique again and let you compare." ”

"No need to take it, this sword is the king's sword used by Qin Shi Huang. Lin Fan said affirmatively.

"Huangkou Xiao'er, nonsense! Even a three-year-old child can see that it is just an ordinary Qin sword. An Guotai scolded with disdain.

"Steward Xu, you go and get a pot of chicken blood. Lin Fan said calmly.

Steward Xu looked at Ning Feihong, Ning Feihong nodded, and Steward Xu went to get chicken blood.

Everyone didn't know why Lin Fan wanted chicken blood.

"Mr. Lin, do you use chicken blood?" hahahaha......" An Guotai sneered.

Lin Fan ignored him.

Soon Steward Xu came in with a basin of chicken blood.

Lin Fan smiled and said, "The time to witness the miracle has come. ”

Lin Fan slowly poured chicken blood on Qin Jian, and a strange scene appeared, the chicken blood actually penetrated into the inside of Qin Jian, and then the rust on the sword body began to fall off, and the cold glow of the blade appeared.

After all the chicken blood fell, eight big seal characters flashed on the sword: Dominate the world, and the four seas are peaceful.

Looking at the sword again, it has a new look, the whole body is red, and the blade is pressing, as if it has just been forged.

Everyone opened their mouths wide in surprise and their eyes straightened......
