Chapter 30: Crisis
Kikujiro Takashima pulled out a stack of items from his file bag and laid them out on the table one by one.
Jiang Hua glanced at it, and his face suddenly became gloomy, like the sky before a rainstorm.
What Kikujiro Takashima brought out was not an instrument, but it was about the same effect as the instrument - it was six or seven photographs with irregular patterns such as black and white spots or stripes.
Maybe others don't know what it is, but he knows at a glance that this is definitely a photo taken by the same era as Jianzhen under a high-powered magnifying glass.
"Rub!"
Jiang Hua scolded secretly in his heart, he didn't expect Takashima Kikujiro to use this trick.
There is no problem with the paper of the "Great Nirvana Sutra", there is no problem with the characters, and there is no problem with the "origin" -- of course, Jianzhen has copied the "Great Nirvana Sutra" by hand, and there is no problem with the technique of making old ones, and he is confident that what he has forged is definitely the closest to the real thing, but this does not mean that it is without loopholes.
Any antique will form natural characteristics over a long period of time, such as the patina of bronze, the treasure of porcelain, and so on.
There are many ways to make patina in antique aging, the most common is to corrode with strong acid, or bury it in the soil and naturally corrode and so on can produce patina, but these methods are fundamentally different from the real patina formed over hundreds of thousands of years, color, hardness, etc. are completely different, and experienced people can tell at a glance.
Speaking of the treasure light of porcelain, porcelain that has been played for many years will emit a soft light, which is actually the result of the wear and tear of the porcelain surface.
In the process of porcelain aging, in order to create a treasure light, it will be rubbed back and forth with strips of cloth, etc., and the surface of the "processed" porcelain will be very soft, and there will be no more dazzling new porcelain. However, such porcelain will immediately reveal the horse's feet under high magnification.
The treasure light formed by playing with will see large or small irregular small black spots or line marks under the high-magnification glass, and the porcelain processed and polished with cloth strips will see a group of almost parallel or regular line marks, as long as a little experienced person knows this, holding a magnifying glass in his hand, he can identify a considerable part of the fake.
The same is true for calligraphy and painting, in a long period of time, natural aging or being played, there will be many small cracks on the paper and ink that are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, which is the characteristic of ancient calligraphy and painting.
Fine cracks appear in the ink that has been carefully baked over the fire, and on the paper that has been rolled back and forth.
Because the material is different, the cracks formed by the aging of calligraphy and painting are different from porcelain, it is irregular, and the expert cannot distinguish it even with the help of a high-powered magnifying glass - Takashima Kikujiro and the Ono he invited definitely have no such ability.
But there is a method that can be used by Kikujiro Takashima now, and even a fool can identify the real from the fake - as long as the authentic work left by the authenticity can be found, and the cracks in the paper and ink of the two under the high-power magnification glass will be exposed.
Jianzhen's position in the history of the island country is very important, of course, it will leave ink, not to mention, "Please Sutra Book Sticker" is collected in the island country.
Kikujiro Takashima took out the photo, which may be a high-powered photo taken on the "Please Sutra Book Sticker".
Jiang Hua watched Kikujiro Takashima and Ono carefully examine the "Great Nirvana Sutra" with a high-powered magnifying glass, and compared it with the photos taken out of the file bag, and his heart was half cold.
"It's over!
Jiang Hua muttered silently in his heart, Takashima Kikujiro They will definitely find the loopholes in the "Great Nirvana Sutra", and this pit can't bury people.
"I already knew that I had to find a way to force Kikujiro Takashima to buy it on the spot when I was in Baoeizhai yesterday, and it didn't matter if the price was lower. ”
Jiang Hua regretted it very much at this time, but he had never regretted taking medicine in the world, and it was too late to say anything now.
If the "Great Nirvana Sutra" can't be sold, there will be no money to pay Fang Zhong, and Jiang Hua can't think of where he can get 20 million.
Jiang Hua felt that his temples began to beat "suddenly", and his brain twitched a little painfully.
"Jiang Hua, what's wrong?"
Zhao Tie sat beside Jiang Hua and soon realized that something was wrong.
"It's okay, I'll go out for a cigarette. ”
Jiang Hua shook his head, stood up and walked outside the conference room.
"Hey, hey, hey. I'm going to smoke a cigarette too, it's so stuffy here. ”
Deng Mingshi also noticed that Jiang Hua's face suddenly became very unsightly, and immediately followed out.
Zhao Tie turned his head to look at Takashima Kikujiro and Ono who were appraising, and his heart slowly sank, and he remembered his previous guess that the "Great Nirvana Sutra" was fake.
"The Great Nirvana Sutra" is very easy to sell, and the reserve price of 50 million is not high, Zhao Tie believes that it is easy to sell, Jiang Hua himself is a seller of antiques, it is impossible not to know this, but he designated to sell it to Takashima Kikujiro, this thing is very strange - but if the "Great Nirvana Sutra" is fake, everything makes sense, thinking about the devil.
Zhao Tie has always suspected this matter in his heart, but Takashima Kikujiro didn't find anything when he appraised the "Great Nirvana Sutra" in Bao Rong Zhai, and he was willing to pay a deposit of five million, so he didn't think about it anymore, you must know that people like Takashima Kikujiro who specialize in buying antiques are often very powerful appraisal masters, and if the "Great Nirvana Sutra" is fake, there is a chance that it will not escape.
Eka was very calm before, even when he saw Ono invited by Takashima Kikujiro, but when Takashima Kikujiro opened the file bag and took out a few photos from it, something started to be wrong.
Zhao Tie also saw the photo, but he didn't know what the black or white things on it were.
"The Great Nirvana Sutra is fake, those photos are the key to identification, Jiang Hua knows this, and this is the abnormal reaction?"
Zhao Tie moved his body, but he immediately realized that he couldn't make more movements, if the "Great Nirvana Sutra" was really fake, he had to be even more calm at this time, otherwise it would only arouse the suspicion of Takashima Kikujiro and Ono even more.
Jiang Hua entered the smoking room, closed the door, took out a cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Whew!"
Jiang Hua took a hard puff, the hot smoke felt a slight pain when it passed through his lungs, he didn't dare to stay in the conference room any longer just now, for fear that if he stayed, he would show his feet.
"It's still a person who underestimates this world. ”
Jiang Hua smiled bitterly and spit out smoke.
The method used by Takashima Kikujiro and Ono actually took a little more time and dug the pit a little better, and Takashima Kikujiro and Ono could be buried in it.
In the end, it is still the people who underestimate this world. As Huaxia is also the world's top restoration expert, he believes that even in the current world, he is still a master, a master, and few people can identify the counterfeit antiques - at least Takashima Kikujiro and Ono do not have such skills.
Reality slapped himself in the face, Takashima Kikujiro and Ono's identification level cannot be compared with their own, but the method they came up with is "the right medicine", and they will definitely be able to identify the truth and falsehood of the "Great Nirvana Sutra".
"Jiang Hua, two hours are almost up, and the other party should finish the appraisal immediately. ”
Deng Mingshi opened the door of the smoking room, glanced at Jiang Hua who was sitting in a chair, and immediately knew that something was really wrong - the two grew up together, and he really knew Jiang Hua too well.
The matter must be related to the "Great Nirvana Sutra" that is being identified in the conference room, there are countless Taos in the antique business, many of which cannot be spoken, especially in unfamiliar places, he didn't say anything, just reminded Jiang Hua.
Jiang Hua was taken aback, and understood that Deng Mingshi must have seen something, and this was a reminder that he was not in his own store now, and he had to go back no matter what happened.
"Okay, let's go and see, I paid a lot of money to buy the Great Nirvana Sutra. ”
Pressing the cigarette butt into the ashtray fiercely, Jiang Hua stood up, after all, he was a human being in two lives, and when he walked out of the door, he didn't look strange on his face.
