Chapter 21: New Abilities
"Wild boar is tall, it's rare to see you praise people like this!" Xu Zhuo rubbed his eyes, got up and moved twice, and said with a smile.
"Hehe, where can I hide my mind from you Xu Da handsome guy, Xu Da talent!" Wild Boar Gao is quite flattering, disgusting.
"Well, we're roommates, can we do this?" Xu Zhuo waved his hand, signaling that he had something to say.
Wild Boar Gao said: "I have taken a fancy to two good objects, but unfortunately the financial resources only allow me to start one, don't you know that your attainments are not inferior to mine, hehe, I want to ask you to help me palm my eyes!"
Xu Zhuo smiled: "My strength is about the same as yours, just go for it!"
"Okay, okay, you're much higher than me, okay!"
"Come on, let's go!" Xu Zhuo was just joking with him, and immediately hugged his waist and went out together. A brother in a dormitory, a fellow classmate, naturally has no relationship. Of course, the most iron-clad with him is still Lu Han. Gao Meng is second, and Chen Peng is even inferior.
……
Mozi Bridge, pedestrian street, antique market.
Gao Meng happily pulled Xu Zhuo to an antique stall. This stall is relatively large, mainly selling bronze utensils, and there are many miscellaneous things, such as fans, jade, inkstones, and so on.
Everything looks very old. Antiques, of course, have to be "ancient" and "old"! However, Xu Zhuo's eyes swept and he knew that many of these objects were "old"!
In the antique industry, there are many ways to make old, such as fired pottery, if you want to make old, you can bury it in the soil of the ancient tomb for at least one month, remove the color and brightness of the surface, and make the funeral gas, rain and even human body residues in the ancient tomb penetrate into the pottery. In addition, corrosion treatment is also required: some are soaked in ********, hydrofluoric acid and other medicines......
Jade, on the other hand, is fried with sugar, fried with sugar, and corroded by strong acids...... The most amazing trick is to kill the dog, put the jade in the belly while the dog's blood is not condensed, sew it up and bury it in the ground. After a few years, the surface of the jade produces soil flowers and blood spots, which is called "dog jade".
As for the large pile of rusty bronzes in front of you, which are very ancient, they naturally have their own unique methods of doing the olding, first of all, "bite" with acid, that is, "bite" the smooth surface of the bronze ware, or "bite" the place with a spearhead to moisten. Then add patina and rust to the bronze, mix the green patina powder and dark red rust powder with high-strength glue according to a certain portion, and then brush this "paste" onto the bronze, and then bury the bronze in the wet ground. The old craftsmen also used to bury some stones and bronzes together, and often poured urine on them. After being buried in this way for a few days, the artificial rust on the bronze and the natural rust are mixed, and some bronzes also have some fossil crystals and other things. In this way, although the old bronze is a newborn baby, the body is engraved with the vicissitudes of prehistory.
Xu Zhuo looked at it, these dozens or hundreds of bronze vessels, although the shape is elegant, rusty, quite ancient, it looks like it has just been dug out of the ground for a long time, I don't know how many years it has been buried, but in fact, it is all old.
Because, after all, the imitation of rust is imitation, and it may be able to fool the layman, but it will definitely not be hidden from the connoisseur. Most of the bronzes that have been handed down to this day are unearthed bronzes, and there are common green rust, red rust, blue rust, purple embroidery, etc. If the rust color is integrated with the body, the depth is consistent, solid and even, smooth and natural, then it is a naturally generated rust color. If the rust color floats on the utensils, green but not shiny, the skin is rusty, and it is not moist and dazzling, it is pseudo-rust.
"What I fancy is this Ding, the boss is from the Shang Dynasty!" The bronze ware is valued in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and Gao Meng pointed to a Ding about two feet and three inches high to Xu Zhuodao.
The boss was a bearded man, about forty years old, lean and lean, with very bright eyes, and when he heard this, he immediately echoed: "This absolute force is from the Shang Dynasty, and it is a friend of mine......
After a pause, he lowered his voice and said mysteriously: "That kind of friend knows that he can't rob tombs? Yes, he is a professional inverted fighter, touching the golden captain! My friend also did this, dug an ancient tomb about the Shang and Zhou dynasties, and fought hard to make it upside down!"
"Then how much does this sell for?" Xu Zhuo was a little amused. In fact, Xu Zhuo is also an amateur, but his eyesight is acceptable. Heart, you just talk nonsense, don't you look at me and the wild boar Meng are students, so you can fool around?
"This number is not the price!" said the bearded boss, holding out three fingers.
"Three hundred?" Xu Zhuo asked.
"You're so beautiful!" the bearded man glared at Xu Zhuo and said, "Thirty thousand!"
Gao Meng gasped and said, "Boss, you can't just raise the price, you paid back 20,000 yuan last time I came!"
"Last time was last time, this time is this time. Isn't this a sharp rise in the market for bronze ware? Besides, this kind of real thing, whether you buy it or not, its value is there. "The bearded boss blew up, spitting stars flying around, one by one, making a lot of noise.
Xu Zhuo smiled and said nothing, just picked up a piece casually to play with, appreciating its level of counterfeiting, in addition to the embroidery color, patterns, inscriptions, feel, sound, copper, utensils...... can be used as identification, and the knowledge in it can be great. Even though Xu Zhuo boasted that he had studied antiques, in fact, he knew that it was just half a bucket of water.
"Huh?" Suddenly, Xu Zhuo's eyes swept to one of the many bronzes, only to see that it was a wine bottle, rusty, not very peculiar in shape, and relatively large in size, originally among many bronzes, but when Xu Zhuo's eyes swept it, he was surprised to find that the appearance of this bronze wine bottle was actually covered with a layer of clear brilliance.
"Good thing!" However, soon, Xu Zhuo's ability disappeared, and the wine bottle looked the same as before in his eyes.
"This pit father's ability is the same as perspective, the spirit is not effective!" Xu Zhuo slandered, but he couldn't force it, after all, he hadn't been cultivating that divine pupil technique for a long time, and the heat was too shallow.
However, Xu Zhuo already knew that the wine bottle was at least genuine.
"This Ding is too expensive, 30,000 yuan, you can't afford it!" Xu Zhuo directly hit Gao Meng, at this time, you have to pretend to be poor, otherwise, you don't know how to kill the pig by the boss.
"Alas~, it's too expensive. Gao Mengyi said excitedly.
Xu Zhuo picked up the bronze wine bottle casually, and said with a smile: "It's better to bring this thing back!" It is estimated that this wine bottle is old, and the value is not high, buy it back to play with it, and study the authenticity identification ability!"
Gao Meng is also a clever person, and he immediately realized that Xu Zhuo might see something.
