Chapter Forty-Seven: The Bronze of the Smell of Urine

Zhao Tie drove the car, left the city center and drove for half an hour on the highway and got down, and after driving for another half an hour, he got on a very remote road, the road was very narrow, and the small leaves kept hitting the car window, making a "pop" sound. It was not surprising that Jiang Hua would come to such a place, and it was strange that the grave diggers would meet in the city.

Jiang Hua opened the car window and lit a cigarette, the night breeze blew in, with a hint of grass, smelling very comfortable, he was also a little nervous at this time, but not because of those outlaws, but because he didn't know if he would see the bronze he was looking forward to in a while.

"Here we go, let's go down. ”

Zhao Tie parked the car and pushed open the door to go down.

Jiang Hua got out of the car, took a look, and found that there was a cornfield around him, which was in the middle of summer, and it was densely grown, and there was no edge in the night. It's a mud house, it's not big, and it's usually used by people who come to work in the cornfield to put something up.

"It's a good place. ”

Jiang Hua nodded secretly in his heart, those people had obviously considered this place - once something happened, as long as they found a way to drill into the cornfield, even if they got a hundred or ten people, there was no way to surround them.

"Bang Bang!"

Zhao Tie walked to the earthen house and stretched out his hand to pat the door that was bound with a few wooden boards.

"Squeak!"

The door opened, revealing a bearded man, who looked at Zhao Tie and Jiang Hua with wide eyes for a while, and said, "Who is it?"

Zhao Tie raised his hand and gestured, "Follow Douzi, come and see the goods." ”

Jiang Hua didn't speak, he knew that Zhao Tie was on the right side - the gesture must have been agreed before, I can't understand it, it is a very simple "black language" in the rivers and lakes with Douzi, which means that his surname is Sun, this is because Sun Wukong is good at somersaults, and people who go to the rivers and lakes use this to refer to the surname Sun.

The big man's face looked a little better, and he got out of the way.

"Come in. ”

Jiang Hua followed Zhao Tie into the house and quickly glanced at it.

In the corner of the wall was a pile of straw, on which were a mess of quilts, apparently a sleeping place, and in the middle of the place was a stove surrounded by a few stones, on which was an iron kettle, and the fire was blazing, "cooing" and steaming, and beyond that, there were wine bottles all over the place.

In addition to the big man who opened the door just now, there were three other people in the room, the young one was two with muscle bumps, one was very thin and very old, with a small mustache on the chin, which at first glance looked like a large mouse, and they all squatted on the edge of the stove, and the old one smoked hookah and spewed out clouds of smoke. There are a few sacks in the corner, and the bulging inside should contain something.

Jiang Hua and Zhao Tie slowly raised their hands, meaning that they didn't have any guys on them.

The old man looked up, nodded, and said, "Two bosses, you have to be careful in our business, you have to be offended." ”

"It's all out to eat, understandable. ”

Zhao Tie pointed at Jiang Hua and continued, "I'm from pulling fiber, and this is the boss who looks at the goods." ”

Jiang Hua took a small step forward and whispered, "What about the things, I'll take a look." ”

Jiang Hua and Zhao Tie were both standing, and they were not far from the door where they came in, so it would be easy to deal with something for a while.

"Ergou, bring the things over and show them to the boss. ”

The old man turned his head and poked the sack in the corner with the cigarette stick in his hand, "Take the big one." ”

"The big one?"

"Damn, that's called bronze!"

The sack was brought over and thrown to the ground, and with a "bang", the mouth was not tightly pierced, and the contents were exposed.

Jiang Hua looked at the other party and didn't move.

"Hehehe, the boss is quite cautious. ”

The old man smiled and asked the contents of the bag to be taken out and placed on the ground.

Jiang Hua waited for the other party to take two steps back before walking over, and asked the other party to take out the contents of the bag and put it on the ground for fear of touching the porcelain. Some people deliberately put broken things in bags, and as soon as the buyer takes them out, they turn into several pieces, and the seller says that the thing turned out to be good, but the buyer broke it, which happens in the antique circle, and it is necessary to be careful.

"Did you bring the money?"

As soon as Jiang Hua squatted down, the old man suddenly spoke.

"When I came, I said I was only looking at things tonight. ”

Zhao Tie's face sank, the things of tomb robbery were hot, whether it was to see the goods or buy or sell, they had to be clear before contact, and they could not be changed, this is the rule of the trade, mainly to ensure the safety of both parties.

Jiang Hua retracted his hand and stood up, he didn't touch those bronzes.

The old man smoked a hookah, his brows furrowed ugly, and after a while, he nodded lightly and said, "Okay, just do what you said." ”

"Jiang Hua, will you get started?"

Zhao Tie found that Jiang Hua hadn't moved for a while, which was a little strange.

"Hehehe. ”

Jiang Hua shook his head and said, "Nothing good." ”

"Nothing good?"

When the young man closest to the old man heard this, he immediately shouted, "These are all dug up from the ground by the masters, and the tomb of the boss is ...... within a radius of several miles."

Jiang Hua waved his hand to interrupt the other party's words, "A tomb of the boss, how many miles away? I think this is something dug out of the dirt pit in your yard, right?

The pile of bronze in front of me didn't need to be used at all, just looking closer, I could smell the smell of urine. It is clearly to build a good buried in the soil, soak the urine and water some water when there is nothing to do, and naturally corrode the old things.

This is a way to make the bronze old, a simple burial for a few years, a hard work to bury it is decades, such a bronze does have some credibility, the surface is rusty, the patina is covered with a layer, it seems that there is really a year.

In fact, the old bronzes made in this way can still be easily identified by experienced people, one is to smell, and the other is to touch.

Smell is smell, no matter how many years or decades it has been buried, in order to accelerate corrosion and rust and quickly grow patina, you will choose a humid environment, most of which have a smell, such as in the vegetable field, next to the pigsty, etc., as long as you smell a strange smell, there must be a problem.

Touching means touching the patina, the patina of real bronze is slowly formed over thousands of years, the texture is so hard that it can't even be scraped off with a knife, and those things that rustle and rustle straight down as soon as you get started are absolutely fake.

Jiang Hua is a master of repair and counterfeiting, how can such a thing be hidden from him?

You can tell the difference by looking at it.

The antique business is full of pits, and it is up to you to make a hole or pick up a leak.

Jiang Hua didn't plan to debunk the other party's tricks, he just said that there was nothing good, and the other party even wanted to pit himself and shout loudly, so there was nothing to say.

"Hehehe, it turned out to be a connoisseur. ”

The old man looked at Jiang Hua, and there was a smile on his old face that he didn't know if it was true or not.

Jiang Hua ignored it, pointed to the remaining bag in the corner, and said, "What's in it?" ”

The old man had an earthy smell on his body, which was only found in people who had been drilling underground for many years, and in the world before he crossed over, he had dealt with several veteran tomb robbers who had already washed their hands and entered the state apparatus as consultants, and those people had this smell - no matter how many years had passed, how many times they had taken a bath, this smell would never be clean.

The old man in front of him also has this smell, which means that he is indeed a person who has been looking for food underground for many years, and there may be something good in the remaining sack.

At the beginning, the bag of fakes was not only to fish in the water to see if it could blind people, but also to test to see if the buyer had eyesight.

"Good. ”

The old man nodded, opened the rest of the bag, and took out all the contents and laid them on the ground.

There are a lot of things, bits and pieces, gold, silver, porcelain, and even two pieces of wood, and even two pieces of bronze.

Jiang Hua didn't start either, and after a few glances, he had a number in his heart.
