"It's absolutely impossible, our department also has specially appointed expert masters." The middle-aged man insisted that Fan Wuzhi was not sick, and their bronzes must be genuine.

Previously, the security department here in Shanghai received a tip-off that someone was carrying a number of national treasure-level bronzes and was about to come here to trade with overseas criminals.

It's just that the middle-aged man didn't expect that his backstage was actually Fan Wuxi, which is strange. Fan Wuxi's wealth, middle-aged people know something, and the vice premier has to come to personally consult his opinion, how can he sell national treasure-level cultural relics for this little profit?

Isn't that unpleasant to find yourself? However, if these artifacts are all fakes, it is a bit difficult to explain, could it be that the appraisal masters hired by themselves, and the experts in the study of Shang and Zhou bronzes, who are also relatively well-known in China, are all mixed rice and eat?

"I think it's okay, why don't you invite your appraisers over and carefully study the authenticity, so how about returning my innocence?" Fan Wuxian proposed.

"Okay, I'll let them come. The middle-aged man agreed, as long as the authenticity and provenance of these bronzes are confirmed, what else can Fan Wuzhi say?

Although he has a good relationship with the upper echelons, when he encounters this kind of thing, I'm afraid he has to explain it well, right? Fan Wuxian continued.

"No, I'd better go to you for an appraisal so that people don't know that I'm in charge here. After it gets out, there is no way to do it again. Of course, the middle-aged man had no objection to this, in fact, he was also worried that Fan Wuxian would not cooperate, given his special status.

It's really inconvenient to directly deal with him, at this time, Fan Wuxi proposed to go to the head of the Ministry of Security for identification.

Naturally, it's the best. So the group packed all the bronzes, and a few large pieces were carefully packed outside, and then carried out by the people of the security department.

A few people have nothing to do. Fan Wuxian drank the tea sent by the middle-aged man while talking to Zhang Mao.

"Actually, I don't know a lot about bronze objects, although I know some, but they are very superficial, how about you show up today and tell me?" Zhang Mao Donkey said with a smile,

"Mr. Fan's words are a little too modest, others don't know you, I don't know yet. First Novel 520 "There were a few people from the security department in the room, and when I heard two people discussing bronzes, I couldn't help but gather around.

There are ready-made bronzes in the house. There are ready-made people in the industry, so it is natural to learn and learn.

Again. The phenomenon of smuggling cultural relics in Shanghai is also quite serious, and the security department often has to come into contact with similar cases, although it is always necessary to invite experts to make a conclusion on the authenticity, but if you know a little more, it will also be beneficial for future work.

The middle-aged man also had the intention to test the level of Zhang Maodon, so he said,

"It just so happens that we also have a batch of smuggled cultural relics seized last month, how about you come and take a look?" After getting a positive reply from Zhang Donkey, the middle-aged man asked people to bring over three or four bronzes and put them open.

Fan Wuxian looked at it, there was a forty-centimeter-high bronze tripod, and there was something like a food box, there was a knob on the lid, and the tiger was not in the shape of the dragon, and there was a chime, which was rusty.

The first (5) 20.0 donkey is an expert in counterfeiting after all, and he laughed when he saw this thing.

"This is a typical Xi'an, Shaanxi has a lot of bronzes, and there are more farmers in counterfeit land, and the style of your pieces is the same, so there is no doubt that they are fakes."

"You can even see the place where the fake is fake?" A security staff member asked, somewhat curiously.

Zhang Mao Donkey nodded a little reservedly, this kind of pediatric thing is really not difficult for him, at best, he can use these few utensils to eliminate everyone's illiteracy.

There are many schools of bronze counterfeiting, but the more famous ones are mixed, that is, there are so many places, which are made in Suzhou, Weixian, Xi'an and Beijing.

Their main characteristics are, Suzhou made of better materials, often add some silver when smelting copper casting, so that the ground of bronze ware shines and sees silver white, their imitation objects are mainly Shang and Western Zhou vessels, raw pits, cooked pits are omnipotent, and the carving is fine, the decoration is smooth, the inscriptions are realistic, and the works are widely circulated.

Weixian made craftsmen and masters emerge in endlessly, they are better at carving ornaments and inscriptions, and the utensils made are mostly in the form of ripe pits, but the walls of the utensils cast are thick, heavy and pressing.

Xi'an also pays attention to inscriptions, not only fake inscriptions, but even some real vessels without inscriptions, but also engraved inscriptions to raise their value.

The first novel 520 does the most is weights and measures, such as the Qin Zhao version, Qin Liang, etc., which is probably not unrelated to the base of the Great Qin Dynasty in them.

Made in Beijing is mainly Shang and Zhou bronzes, which pay more attention to the gorgeous ornamentation, exquisite shape, and realistic rust spots, especially the black lacquer ancient, green lacquer ancient, etc., which can be accurately expressed.

After all, it is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and it is not so easy to make a living by mixing up, and without some real kung fu, you can't do it.

"These utensils, like these, are relatively simple in style and construction, and not very technical, but they have been buried in the ground for a little more years, and they look like they are genuine, which is a stupid method, but sometimes it works. However, what Xi'an made is a copy of some unearthed cultural relics, and you can't make ununearthed utensils, so as long as you have more research on bronzes, you can basically find familiar places on these utensils, and it is easier to distinguish the authenticity. Zhang Mao Donkey refused to say more about the details, after all, these are all mixed rice and food, to put it elegantly, it is knowledge to change fate!

Newly cast bronzes are generally heavier than the real ones, and the fake or imitation products are buried in the ground for a relatively short period of time, unlike the bronzes that have undergone thousands of years of slow corrosion, the real products have been corroded and oxidized, and its surface has slightly expanded, resulting in a decrease in the specific gravity, while the pseudo casts do not have this process, so they appear heavier.

On the other hand, after deep underground corrosion, the copper has been mineralized, so the pronunciation is mostly turbid.

However, if it is a bronze buried in an extremely dry and pure soil, the percussion sound is also very good.

The bronze ware cast by the ancient block fan has a good surface finish, and the decoration is even delicate, and there are few temperature holes on the surface, and there are fewer shrinkage holes caused by copper infusion.

However, the pseudo-ware cast by modern methods often has some sand holes on the surface, and some even produce casting defects such as shrinkage holes.

A few people pointed here and spoke for a while, and the appraisal experts were invited, there were three of them, all of whom were old men around sixty years old, and this could naturally be understood, without decades of study, it was not possible to be called an expert in the study of cultural relics.

After a few old men came over, they didn't say much nonsense, and immediately began to study the bronzes brought by Fan Wuxi and Zhang Maodonkey, originally when they saw the pictures of these utensils, they were very excited, and they were initially identified as genuine.

After all, for those experts who study ancient relics, seeing the newly discovered ancient bronzes is like a wolf that has been hungry for three years and sees a lamb, and even the people from the security department can't answer when they talk to them.

"What does this thing smell like?" A staff member asked, somewhat puzzled. Zhang Mao Donkey explained,

"Shang and Zhou bronze ware is mostly copper-tin-lead alloy, with hand knocking, then the sound is crisp, because buried in the soil for thousands of years, there is a smell of soil, the newly unearthed copper soil smell is stronger. After the Song Dynasty, the counterfeit ware is mostly brass, and it is not oxidized or the oxidation time is short, it is struck by hand, the sound is slender and turbid, and there is no earthy fragrance, but there is a smell of sweat, which is due to the fact that the counterfeiters use more chemicals, such as salt sand and other fake ground or fake rust, although after many years of burial, there is still a sour smell. Hearing this, an old man who was appraising looked up at Zhang Donkey, nodded and said,

"That's right." Then he continued to lower his head to study what was under his hand. After tinkering for a while, the three old men discussed for a while, and then said solemnly,

"After our unanimous determination, these bronzes cannot be identified as fakes." Can't be identified as a fake?

What does that mean? The middle-aged man naturally felt a little confused, so he asked,

"Three masters, what does it mean that they can't be identified as fakes?"

"This means that the styles of these bronze objects are all new and have no precedent before, and we have found no known forgery on them after research, so we cannot immediately confirm that they are genuine, but we cannot conclude that these objects are fakes." An old man said.

Now the middle-aged man understood,

"You mean you mean you can't verify the authenticity?" The three old men nodded a little embarrassedly and acknowledged the statement.

In fact, the identification of the authenticity of cultural relics, to a large extent, rely on knowledge and knowledge, but when you suddenly encounter an unprecedented instrument, it is a little helpless, after all, when there is no experience to learn from, experts will also feel a little blind, not to mention, Zhang Mao Donkey used the counterfeiting technology this time, it is indeed unprecedented.

Fan Wuxian and Zhang Mao Donkey looked at each other and smiled, and said in his heart that this time's work is very beautiful, and experts can't identify the authenticity.

Uh, the little wolf tried to ask for a few more monthly passes, and see if the big ones have one?
