Chapter 321 The merchant values profit over benevolence
Zhang Tianyuan nodded and said, "That's right, your jade bracelet is not a real ice species floating green, it is not even jade!"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible! Not only do I have an appraisal certificate, but I have also done it. The middle-aged woman shook her head vigorously and said, as if to correct Zhang Tianyuan's opinion.
"Oh, have you done a real thing?", Zhang Tianyuan asked with interest.
"It's the real yàn who burns hair, I heard experts say that jade transfers heat relatively quickly, so wrap the jade with hair, and if you burn it with fire, the heat will be quickly transferred away, and the temperature will rise slowly, so for a while, the hair will not be burned, and if it is a fake hair, it will soon break. The middle-aged woman said firmly.
"Alas, it's really fake experts who hurt people, and the self-righteous people in this world are really cheating people. Zhang Tianyuan sighed, glanced at Ma Yong beside him, and said: "Ma Lao, I really understood what you said in the car at this time, what kind of hair is true, it is pure nonsense, it is just a means used by merchants to deceive ignorant buyers." ”
"Impossible!" said the middle-aged woman stubbornly.
Zhang Tianyuan smiled and said: "Regarding the identification of jadeite, you can find a lot of theoretical knowledge and scientific methods on the Internet, such as what spectral analysis, filter observation, as well as refractive index and specific gravity...... A lot of numbers are clearly not understood by the common people! Instead, the merchants have recommended a lot of soil methods: such as scratching glass, burning hair, and listening to sounds...... To be honest, after listening to the merchant, eighty percent of them will be fooled: people can scratch the glass with a piece of quartzite and burn their hair. And the sound is crisp and pleasant!"
"I don't believe it, I don't believe what you say!"
"Don't believe it, right? It just so happened that the program team prepared quartzite. I'll make you a real yàn, seeing is believing. Zhang Tianyuan smiled. I don't bother to do any more debates, but after the real yàn, I will naturally see the difference.
"Look, this is an ordinary piece of quartzite, definitely not jadeite! Now I'll put my hair on it and show it to you!" Zhang Tianyuan glanced at Dou Xiaoling and said, "Miss Dou, borrow two of your hairs." ”
Dou Xiaoling took two strands of hair and gave them to Zhang Tianyuan.
Zhang Tianyuan took out a lighter, then put his hair on top of the quartzite, used the lighter in his right hand to shoot a flame, and put it on fire where there was hair. After four or five seconds, Zhang Tianyuan put down the lighter and removed the hair that was wrapped around the quartz stone.
"See, your hair isn't broken!"
Zhang Tianyuan's hand was raised very high, and the camera was aimed at his hand, and many people saw this scene at the scene at this time.
"It's really not broken, damn it, Lao Tzu was also fooled, when I used to buy jadeite, there were merchants who made this kind of ghost for me. I thought it was true. ”
"Expert Zhang, you are amazing!"
Zhang Tianyuan put down his hair, then looked at the middle-aged woman with a smile and asked, "This sister, you are also a victim." I won't say too heavy, but you should be careful when collecting jadeite in the future, and the appraisal certificate must be issued by a formal institution. Otherwise, it's easy to fake, and there's one more point. Don't take the word of a businessman for it. ”
The middle-aged woman lowered her head with some shame on her face. There are some regrets, and some sadness, after all, that bracelet is not cheap.
Zhang Tianyuan took the table from Ma Yong's hand and said to the camera: "Our audience friends sometimes misunderstand a little when choosing jadeite. A, B, C, D does not mean 'grade' for A, B, C, D, but only an identifier that indicates whether the jadeite has been 'processed'. This is not the same as the type and grade of jadeite. ”
"Many people like to travel, but they don't know, those jade in the tourist area is a mixture of fish and dragons, note: I said 'fish and dragons' is really polite, in fact, there are already only 'fish' and no 'dragon', a large number of B goods that look very beautiful, C goods are specially prepared for those who do not know the goods and are ready to spend money!"
"Take this table in my hand as an example, haha, the ice species is green, what a beautiful jadeite, and now the jadeite seller is always telling the customer: this is the ice species floating green, it is very rare, no one else has it, just me here everywhere! If the color is not right, there is really not much green, then tell the customer, the ice species is green! If even the green is not enough, then the ice species is floating flowers...... I'm curious, ten years ago, when good seeds were everywhere, I didn't see many 'ice seeds floating green', why are they everywhere now?"
"If you just look through the window, or if people don't let you take it at all, saying that they are afraid of breaking, then I can't see any doorway, and I don't dare to say anything...... No, the merchant also said, and it is likely that this is an old pit...... Maybe you've heard that real jadeite can scratch the glass, okay! The merchant picked up these jadeites and immediately scratched a few lines on the counter glass, how about it, I didn't lie to you, right? The original price is 1,000 and 2, and you will be given a 20% discount and then a discount, count 800, pay for it, where can you find such a good thing?"
"Don't be in a hurry at this time, slow down, let me get closer, turn over and take a look...... It doesn't seem like there's a problem, it's just ...... That reflective place seems to be a little ...... Let me get closer, take a closer look, and the problem will gradually come out! If you really can't see clearly, just take a magnifying glass: this is the typical reticulation of 'bathing'! Not to mention, a little careless, or far away from the can't see clearly, such acid etching lines obviously tell you, this is definitely not A goods! Here I will give you a trick, the surface of jadeite can have independent pits, even if there are more, but there can not be such a subtle and connected piece of reticulation, even if it is as thin as a cow's hair! Remember this one, you can see the B goods at a glance!"
"The material of this bracelet is definitely not a glass species, and the ice species is reluctant, so is it a glutinous species? snot species? Hehe, or don't care what kind it is, anyway, there are too many traditional classifications, and there is no quantitative standard, and many times the masters themselves will quarrel with each other. We ordinary people are even more confused, like us amateur players. Just remember one thing: the more transparent the better!
This is said to be a bit thorough. But why does it look vague? I'll tell you again, this is the one we just saw with reticulation, you know? Yes, pickling, bleaching, glue pouring -- B goods!
But if you buy jadeite according to B goods, you will be fooled again: this is not jadeite at all! Pay attention to the structure of the edge part of the bracelet, it is not the flocculent structure of jadeite. In jadeite, the closest structure to this is cylindrical or round granular, if the grains are coarse. The shape of each particle can be clearly seen, as if sugar is piled up, rather than a blurry piece. This is the latest 'scientific and technological achievement': a jadeite imitation of white aventurine stone that has been pickled, bleached, glued and dyed!"
Speaking of this, Zhang Tianyun carefully put the table into the middle-aged woman's hand.
At this time, there was suddenly a very loud applause from the audience, and it seemed that Zhang Tianyuan's words had completely convinced these audiences.
Dou Xiaoling was also very happy, she originally thought that inviting Zhang Tianyuan to come was just to make up the numbers, but she didn't expect that Zhang Tianyuan seemed to become the protagonist today. stole the limelight from the other four experts.
"This sister, if you don't believe my judgment, you can go to the most authoritative National Jade Jewelry Association in our country to test it and see if my judgment is correct. Zhang Tianyuan saw the middle-aged woman standing there without moving. I thought that the other party was still not convinced, so I said again.
Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly burst into tears, bowed to Zhang Tianyuan and said, "Teacher Zhang." I'm sorry! I shouldn't have doubted the judgment of your experts. ”
"Well, don't say that. Experts are human beings, not gods. What's wrong with doubt? Just doubt, we have to put things on the table, take dry goods, and convince people with reason. Zhang Tianyuan shook his head with a smile.
"Then I'll go first. The middle-aged woman bowed to a few of the experts, then turned and left the gazebo.
Watching the middle-aged woman leave, Zhang Tianyuan said to the camera again: "Friends at the scene, friends from the audience in front of the TV, in fact, I can understand the thoughts of the sister just now, if it were me, I would also hope that what I bought was real, after all, it cost tens of thousands of yuan, and the money was not blown by the wind."
It's just that we should have a sober and objective understanding of antique collecting activities, eliminate unrealistic illusions and misunderstandings, and set a correct mentality.
Why does an antique collection have such a big appeal?
In addition to the reason why collecting activities bring people cultural and spiritual enjoyment and artistic edification, another important reason is that people value its function of making money through investment and maintaining and increasing the value of capital. In the collecting world, there are indeed many good stories that rely on speculation or investment to buy and sell, pick up the leaks and make a lot of profits. Unfortunately, people only see these superficial lucrative phenomena without delving into why they succeed in making money.
It's just knowing what it is, not knowing why.
It is these well-known successful cases of making money that not only arouse people's interest in participating in the sale of antiques, but also make people have some unrealistic one-sided understanding of antique collections, mistakenly thinking that buying and selling antiques can make profits and preserve their value, so they blindly and hastily buy without understanding and mastering the necessary knowledge. You must know that in real life, there are also many vivid cases of sù being deceived and losing all our money because of rash purchases.
Antique collecting is an activity that requires a high level of expertise. The accumulation of this expertise is a gradual and gradual process. There are no shortcuts. People who are really interested in collecting activities can only devote themselves to studying and appreciating knowledge, understanding market dynamics and market conditions, in order to know how to screen and discard complicated old items, and to get away with spending less unjust tuition. Therefore, we should not be short-sighted and blind in collecting, and should aim to enrich amateur cultural life and add interest to life, and personal investment and financial management are only secondary. Engaging in collecting activities with such peace of mind and mental health may give you unexpected surprises in terms of financial returns.
Man is an emotional animal, and the ratio of emotion to reason is 24 to 1!
Many times, many occasions, and the outcome and outcome of many things are swayed, dominated, and induced by people's likes and dislikes, isn't it?
The ancients said that if a person is not a sage, how can he be without fault? What is a fault? What is a fault? Why is a mistake? A mistake is wrong, and even a half-step past the truth is a fallacy! Therefore, the relationship is natural, there are relatives and sparse, there are good and evil, love and hatred! The relatives, the good, and the lover are naturally happy, and the entertainment is foolish, and the argument and proof are ultimately saved; and the sparse, evil, and hateful ones will inevitably slander, defile, and even insult them, dislike them, castrate them, and fake them in order to cover them up, drown them, and then drown them quickly!
Remember these words, calm your mind steadily, and the chance of being deceived will be much smaller. (To be continued......)
