In fact, what Liu Jiapeng said is also quite reasonable, the authenticity of antiques depends on eyesight and experience, and destructive experiments are used to identify the authenticity of antiques, but it is not a way to do it.

And imitations are not worthless, and now some high-quality imitations are getting more and more attention.

What's more, the broken porcelain should be a very good restored porcelain, otherwise it would not have used this violent way to identify the authenticity. Nowadays, the value of repaired porcelain is getting higher and higher, if the porcelain is originally of high value, the level of repair is good, and the damaged place is not very large, the value is not low.

Now this young man named Si Hao has smashed things and turned around and left, can Liu Jiapeng be happy? Even in the name of appraisal, it can't be, and Liu Jiapeng may not really see it?

Si Hao sneered: "Shopkeeper Liu, if you want me to be responsible, let's explain how you swore by yourself just now." ”

Liu Jiapeng said: "What's wrong with my misreading, is it possible that in the antique world, there are people who can never be wrong in their lives? Boy, don't think about leaving if you don't give me an explanation today!"

"It seems that Shopkeeper Liu is not willing to give up when he is not in the Yellow River!" Si Hao sneered and took out his mobile phone, opened it and began to play an audio file.

The voice inside sounded like a conversation between Liu Jiapeng and another person, and from the conversation, it was obvious that Liu Jiapeng knew that there was something wrong with the porcelain.

"Xiao Liu, it seems that you are going back more and more. Elder Fang glanced at Liu Jiapeng, with anger in his eyes, and then walked out without looking back.

Liu Jiapeng's face turned blue and white for a while, and he was both worried and angry in his heart, because the conversation that was played just now was only him and the person who spoke, and only the other party was recorded.

The thought that the porcelain was bought from that man, that he had made him money, and that he had to be betrayed in the end, that sense of grievance made him very angry. Thinking about it again, he was actually taught a lesson by a little ghost in his twenties, and he made a big fool in front of Fang Lao, which made him even more unbearable, and his eyes turned red because of anger.

"Hell, what kind of blood mold did I pour here!"

Liu Jiapeng couldn't help but scold, and then he said to Meng Zitao: "It's closed here!"

Meng Zitao smiled slightly: "Shopkeeper Liu, I have something I want to ask you." ”

"Who are you, what are you looking for me?" asked Liu Jiapeng with a frown.

Meng Zitao said: "You should know about Bian Xi's affairs, right?"

Liu Jiapeng's face changed and said, "Who are you?"

Meng Zitao simply showed his work ID, Liu Jiapeng saw the national emblem on the cover, his confidence immediately dropped a little, and his voice was a little less: "What are you looking for me, didn't you already know about it yesterday? I said that I went to Tianjin yesterday, and no one should look for me!"

Meng Zitao smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Liu, don't be nervous, after all, there is a fatality, and we must be careful here." ”

"What else do you want to ask?" asked Liu Jiapeng.

Meng Zitao said: "Can you find a quiet place, if it's inconvenient, let's go to the police station now." ”

"Why, isn't that a threat to me?"

Liu Jiapeng was dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to express this dissatisfaction, so he said: "Then let's go to the back and talk about it." Wait a minute, I'll close the door. ”

After a while, Liu Jiapeng simply cleaned the porcelain tiles and took Meng Zitao to the back.

Liu Jiapeng's shop is not big, not to mention the small room in the back, there is only a table and two chairs in the room, and some antiques are placed in other places, but it looks much better than the outside.

Liu Jiapeng made tea for Meng Zitao, and Meng Zitao looked at a piece of porcelain on the table.

This is a blue and white glaze in the red flower bird poems like ear zun, blue and white color is bright, the shade of the shade has its own meaning, very rich in pen and ink interest, the rhyme is elegant. The colors of flowers and birds are soft and elegant, easy and free with the pen, the birds are fragrant, and the movement is appropriate. The blue and white inscription on the abdomen side shows the handsome style and bones, and the brushwork is fresh. It is the work of Jin Pinqing, one of the three masters of light porcelain painting.

Meng Zitao looked at it, raised his head and asked, "Shopkeeper Liu, I don't know which master this artifact came from?"

Liu Jiapeng was obviously stunned for a moment, and began to keep silent: "What do you mean?"

Meng Zitao laughed, for him, it is not difficult to distinguish and repair porcelain, after all, ancient porcelain is fired in the traditional wood kiln and coal kiln, in the firing process with the temperature curve change and the kiln gas and environment changes, the fired carcass, glaze, color have curve changes. These need to be manifested in the restoration process.

In addition, the temperature of coal kiln and wood kiln firing process is high and low, and the bubbles on the glaze are also of different sizes and have a certain sense of hierarchy. On the glaze surface, bubbles that also need to make the same feeling, as well as the natural ash in the kiln, the flame traces on the back fire side and the fire side, etc., are all difficulties that a restorer needs to study and do his homework.

The so-called traces must be left in the move, generally speaking, no matter how superb the repair skills are, one or two flaws can be identified through careful identification, which is also difficult for manpower to hide, even if it is as strong as Zhang Huizhang old man porcelain restoration master, can not do 100% consistency.

So, he said: "Liu shopkeeper, the Ming people do not say dark words, this is also an excellent repair porcelain, in order to be consistent in the background color, covering the last two words of the original artifact, although it can not be simply identified by the background color, but through the contrast of the upper and lower fonts, the words on the later pigment imitation and the original glaze color calligraphy can see the clues. ”

Liu Jiapeng stared at Meng Zitao with some surprise: "Who are you?"

Meng Zitao took out his own document again, this certificate was because in view of the special circumstances that Meng Zitao often encountered, the department specially applied for him to make it, and the local police force could be dispatched.

"Meng Zitao?" Liu Jiapeng was a little familiar with this name in his impression, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it for a while, which was also because Meng Zitao did not appear on TV shows, and he was not a member of the antique industry in Beijing.

Meng Zitao didn't care what Liu Jiapeng thought, seeing that Liu Jiapeng didn't want to talk more about repairing porcelain, he got down to business: "Shopkeeper Liu, do you know the reason why Mrs. Bian Xiyu was killed?"

Liu Jiapeng said: "Is it because of a statue I sold him? In addition to the special material, I really can't think of anything special about that statue, I almost gave it to the side shopkeeper at the beginning." ”

"Have you ever talked to anyone about the painting and the statue?" asked Mencius.

"Nope. Liu Jiapeng shook his head.

Meng Zitao said: "Shopkeeper Liu, I hope you can think clearly before answering." ”

"Really not!" Liu Jiapeng still shook his head, but after a moment, he frowned and said, "Wait...... I seem to have said it, but I don't seem to have said it, and I can't remember it. ”

"Can't you remember this kind of thing?" Meng Zitao looked incredulous.

Liu Jiapeng waved his hand: "If I were in a normal state, I would definitely not be able to forget, but the key is that I drank with my friends, and I was already dazed, so I can't remember whether I said it or not." ”

"Who did you drink with?" Meng Zitao asked.

"Just two friends, one is called Lu Feng, and the other is called Nian Jiwei. Liu Jiapeng replied.

"You're not holding a grudge, are you?" The reason why Meng Zitao said this is because in the recording just now, the person who talked to Liu Jiapeng was called Nian Jiwei.

Liu Jiapeng waved his hand: "Then how can it be, I am not a righteous gentleman, but I am not a sinister villain, although he is not particular about life, but I will not wronged him for this accident." Besides, you can ask Lu Feng about this. ”

Meng Zitao nodded and asked Liu Jiapeng to tell the details of these two people, and Liu Jiapeng did the same.

"Do you have anything else to add?"

"No more. ”

"Alright, now let's talk a little bit more about the origin of the painting and the statue. Meng Zitao said.

"I collected these two things in the countryside of Yan Province. ”

Liu Jiapeng said it cheerfully, but Meng Zitao noticed that there was something strange in his expression, and then said: "You tell the address again." ”

Liu Jiapeng said: "I don't know the specific address, because when I set up a stall in the town to collect things, the other party came to the door with the things." ”

Meng Zitao looked at Liu Jiapeng for a while, and saw that Liu Jiapeng's eyes flickered a little, and then he said: "Then you always know what the other party looks like, right?"

"Yes, I still have some impressions of this. Liu Jiapeng was a little panicked when Meng Zitao saw it.

Although Meng Zitao didn't know how to paint portraits, he also inquired about the details of this kind of portrait inquiry, so he asked Liu Jiapeng one by one, and Liu Jiapeng answered honestly without a temper.

In this way, the two of them asked and answered, and after Meng Zitao's questions were asked, he sorted out the transcript, got up and handed Liu Jiapeng a business card of his own: "Shopkeeper Liu, I'm sorry for you, I hope you can contact me in time if you think of any clues." ”

"Definitely, definitely!"

Liu Jiapeng looked at Meng Zitao's business card, and was stunned: "You are Teacher Grass Shengmeng?"

Meng Zitao smiled: "That's all the love of the predecessors, it's nothing." ”

Liu Jiapeng didn't expect that the celebrity in front of him was really a celebrity he often talked about some time ago, but he immediately became puzzled, didn't he say that Meng Zitao was Zheng Anzhi's apprentice and had a big industry under his name? What was the matter with the certificate he just took out.

Meng Zitao saw Liu Jiapeng's doubts, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the documents I took out are real, if you don't believe it, you can call to identify it." ”

"How can I be? Although Liu Jiapeng had doubts in his heart, he still had some eyesight and could see that the previous documents should be fine.

"Shopkeeper Liu, I still have some things, so I'll leave first. Meng Zitao said.

"Teacher Meng, wait a minute, I don't know if you are interested in jade from the Western Zhou Dynasty. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Jiapeng hurriedly added: "I am a heirloom, not a pit." ”

"Please show me it. Meng Zitao smiled, in fact, even if Liu Jiapeng didn't explain, he knew that the other party couldn't take a raw pit, otherwise there would be a hole in his brain.

After a while, Liu Jiapeng brought a jade artifact over, but it was a jade handle-shaped artifact.

In ancient times, there was no strict distinction between jade, and most of them were sacrificial vessels and vessels of sworn divine power, which were often solemn and inviolable, mysterious and unpredictable. There are many artifacts of unknown use in archaeology, which are difficult to decipher and cannot be understood, and can only be solved through solemn and solemn understanding.

When archaeologists encounter unknown relics of the ancestors, they often name them according to their shapes, such as "bow-shaped vessels", "chopstick-shaped vessels", "handle-shaped vessels", etc. This neutral naming method without functional judgment is accepted by everyone because of its rigor.

This piece of jade handle-shaped vessel, cut extremely fine, the outline is irregular, all because of the ornamentation cut hollow, the surface of the vessel with shallow lines and grooves, thin as a fly's foot, the layout is dense. In the center stands a sacred bird, with its head flapped, its feet erect, and the candle dragon hovering and twisting under its feet.

Above the crown feathers of the sacred bird, several dragons soar in the sky, head and tail belong to each other, unpredictable, its imagination across the world and its undoubted kingly spirit, so that people are indignant for the eternal survival of the spirit. On the whole, it can conform to the carving characteristics of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

In addition, there is black Qin on the surface of this vessel, however, after Meng Zitao observed, he found that the color on it was actually "old oil". The so-called "old oil" is a method of aging in ancient times, through artificial technology to make black marks on jade, similar to the appearance of the color.

In other words, this is not actually a work of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and it has not been put into the soil, but the whole vessel still shows an old state.

The so-called old ripe, in fact, refers to the old jade plate after playing for a long time, the jade usually becomes transparent, and the surface appears warm and moist, which is what people in the industry often call "old ripe", and it feels like jelly or rice cakes.

This is because in the process of playing with the old jade, the sweat, acid, alkali, and vegetable wax of the human body penetrate into the jade, so that the jade transmits a translucent oily feeling from the surface and the inside, thus revealing the unique calm and warmth and treasure light of the ancient jade.

"Shopkeeper Liu, this jade is indeed good, but I have some questions about its age. Meng Zitao said.

"You say it's not a generation?" Liu Jiapeng was a little anxious.

Meng Zitao said: "Jade, like people, has pores that are invisible to the naked eye, and connoisseurs call it 'Tumen', which is a pipe that excretes impurities inside jade. The soil door is clear, and it can be judged that it has been in the soil, and the color is deep into the jade, which is not artificially baked and oiled. But your jade has obviously not been put into the soil, and as for the color on it, it is just an old oil, I think it should be a work of the Ming Dynasty. ”

In order to convince Liu Jiapeng, Meng Zitao talked about some other characteristics.

"I don't want to be eye-catching again!" Liu Jiapeng smiled bitterly.
