"No more rambling, let's go. Let's see what kind of conclusions will be made after the thing is tested. Immediately, under the leadership of Zhang Lao, everyone went out of the antique city and prepared to go to the most authoritative testing institution in the provincial capital.

"Elder Zhang, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you're going to leave before you come?"

"Old Qin, I have new tea, why don't you go over and sit down?"

"Tian Lao, are you free, I want to ask you something......

However, in the process of leaving the antique city, the mighty group of people naturally attracted special attention, and people came up to say hello from time to time. Of course, the people who came up were all greeting Zhang Lao and others. So don't talk about the little-known Wang Guan, even Gao Dequan and Yue Da's shopkeeper are also for their followers, and no one cares about them at all.

At this time, Wang Guan finally saw how high the prestige of Zhang Lao and the others was. Seeing the figure of Zhang Lao and others, almost the shopkeepers and shopkeepers of the entire antique city, including the customers who came to visit the antique city, poured over, making it difficult for them to move an inch.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, Wang Guan was inevitably squeezed into the outermost corner.

Seeing this situation, Wang Guan was a little speechless, and couldn't help but secretly slander in his heart, if those shopkeepers and shopkeepers knew the purpose of Zhang Lao and the others coming, I am afraid that they would run as far as they wanted, and they would definitely not dare to get closer.

"Wang Guan, get in the car and ......"

Soon after, Gao Dequan drove over slowly and honked his horn to barely disperse some people.

Seeing this, Wang Guan hurriedly got into the car. But before he could sit down, the car suddenly braked sharply, making his body habitually swing forward, and then with a bang, his head tragically hit the roof of the car.

"Phew!"

Wang Guan gasped, grinned and said, "Uncle De, don't bring such a whole person." ”

"Someone suddenly hit me in front of me, and I had to brake." Gao Dequan was a little embarrassed, looked through the rearview mirror, and asked with concern, "How is it, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay......" Wang Guan smiled bitterly. Fingers rubbed his forehead. I feel some bruising and stinging.

"Here you go!"

At this moment, a small and delicate bottle was handed to the side. Wang Guan was stunned, looked up, and saw Su Yu say lightly: "This is an anti-analgesic and stasis medicine, the effect is very significant, you can give it a try." ”

"Ah...... Thank you. ”

Wang Guan reacted and hurriedly took the bottle.

"You're welcome."

Su Yu's demeanor was calm, but his clear eyes were a little bit of thought, as if he was going to say something. In the end, he didn't speak.

Wang Guan didn't pay attention, after opening the bottle, he put the medicine on the swollen place on his forehead, and immediately felt a burst of coolness and comfort, which was really immediate and very effective.

At the same time, Zhang Lao also squeezed out of the crowd and finally got into the car. Immediately shouted, "Ade." Come on! ”

"What about the others?" Gao Dequan asked casually, then carefully adjusted the direction and drove the car out.

"Wait for them at the exit." Zhang Lao instructed, then shook his head and said, "When I came here before, I didn't see them so enthusiastic, why did they become like this now." ”

"Elder Zhang, do your own calculations, how many years have you not been to the Antique City?" Gao Dequan said with a smile.

"Huh. Really. Zhang Lao suddenly said: "It seems to have been seven or eight years!" ”

At Mr. Zhang's age and status, he naturally rarely visits the antique city. Generally, as long as you sit at home, someone will take the initiative to send something to ask them to help you appreciate it. If you like it, buy it directly, and if you don't like it, let someone take it away. In this case, there is no need to visit the antique shop at all.

In between words. Gao Dequan drove to the intersection of the antique city, and after waiting for a few minutes, Qin Lao and others also came out one after another under the driver's escort, and then the group sped away.

More than ten minutes passed, and everyone successfully reached the most authoritative testing center in the provincial capital. I don't know who said hello, anyway, when everyone opened the door and got off the bus, they saw that the personnel of the testing agency were already waiting at the door.

After some greetings, Zhang Lao explained his intentions, and then in the sad expression of the shopkeeper Yue, he handed over the enamel inscription poem over the wall to the inspectors. After that, it's just a matter of patience.

Two hours passed, and the person in charge of the testing agency walked out with a thick stack of materials.

"How's it going, it's out?"

In an instant, the crowd gathered around. One of the most nervous is naturally the shopkeeper of Yue Da, if the enamel color material on the plate is not the latest filling and coloring, then it means that his inference is correct.

It's a pity that the results of the test are destined to frustrate the wish of the shopkeeper Yue and make him completely dead.

"Bai Lao, your appraisal is correct."

At the right time, the person in charge of the testing agency admired: "According to our testing, we found that these colored materials ......"

Next, the person in charge said a lot of professional terms, Wang Guan didn't understand, but even guessed and understood. It seems that depending on the length of time the enamel material is in contact with the air, there will be a corresponding change after the laboratory test.

It is estimated that Zhang Lao is also half-understood, and after listening to it for a few minutes, he simply asked: "Needless to say about the process, just tell us the results directly." When were these enamels fired? ”

"It's a newly colored color, and it won't last more than 30 years." The person in charge affirmed.

"Not more than thirty years?" Zhang Lao frowned: "Can't it be more accurate?" ”

"It's hard to know for sure." The person in charge shook his head and said: "After all, from a technical level, the reaction caused by the contact between the enamel color material and the oxygen in the air is ...... There is no significant difference between one year and thirty years......"

"That's going to be a tough one."

All of a sudden, the crowd began to suffer. Although the results of the examination ruled out the possibility that the plate was an old imitation, it could not confirm that the item was recently fired, and it could also be a fish that slipped through the net 20 years ago.

When everyone had a headache, the shopkeeper Yue wanted to cry without tears, and the last glimmer of hope was shattered. Especially when he saw the plate that was scraped off the enamel pattern and looked bare, he even had the mind to hit the wall.

"Lao Yue, look away."

The shopkeeper Li comforted softly, and he was also very frightened. Not only him, but also several big shopkeepers next to him also had a heavy expression, and they had already begun to think about whether the antique porcelain in the store should be sold quickly, or not to be stocked for the time being, so as not to accidentally get hit, then there is no place to cry.

"Ten million, how do you tell me to see it?" The shopkeeper of Yue said in a trembling voice, his heart was so painful that he wanted to vomit blood.

In an instant, Wang Guan's heart trembled, and he realized the cruelty and ruthlessness of the antique industry. For a while, everyone was silent, and the atmosphere was very depressing.

Suddenly, Zhang Lao said: "Xiao Yue, I want to buy a Ming Dynasty Buddha statue recently, please help me find it." If there's something nice, send it straight to my house. ”

"Well, Xiaoyue, I remember that there seems to be a string of yellow rosewood beads in Baoshan Pavilion, I fell in love with ......"

"I want the swimming fish picture of Li Fangying, the eight monsters of Yangzhou in the Qing Dynasty......"

At the same time, Qin Lao, Bai Lao and the others opened their mouths one after another, and the value of the things they bought was between one or two million, but the nine people shot at the same time, which to some extent could be regarded as making up for the loss of Yue Da's shopkeeper.

"Seniors......"

In an instant, the shopkeeper Yue's eyes were red, and he was very moved.

"Xiao Yue, our ability is limited, we can only help you so much."

At this time, Zhang Lao said seriously: "You should understand that we are not deliberately targeting anyone, but it is just out of helplessness that you have suffered losses." ”

"Elder Zhang, you old man don't need to say much, I understand."

The shopkeeper Yue was ashamed and said: "All the seniors are all public-minded and kind-hearted, and want to solve problems for the antique city and maintain the order of the industry. In contrast, I'm the villain, blinded by the petty profits......"

Speaking of this, the shopkeeper Yue gritted his teeth and suddenly said, "Old Zhang, don't be embarrassed, I can be sure that this plate will not be fired for more than two years." ”

"How?"

Everyone was stunned, and hurriedly looked at the shopkeeper Yue, eager to know the reason.

"I bought this thing two years ago when I went abroad for an expedition."

Shopkeeper Yue adjusted his mood and slowly recalled: "When I saw this thing in an antique shop, I was immediately pleasantly surprised. The enamel porcelain of the Yongzheng period is a rare treasure both ancient and modern. At that time, I didn't think much about it at all, and immediately pestered the shopkeeper, and it took several days to get the thing down at a conversion price of 10 million. ”

"At that time, I felt that I had taken a big advantage, but now I know that I was pitted miserably."

The shopkeeper Yue shook his head with a wry smile, and then continued: "After buying the things, I must have been focusing on research and appreciation, so I remember very clearly that the enamel patterns on the plate are very fresh. But two years later, this new shine is restrained. I didn't pay much attention to it all along, but after knowing that it was a fake, now that I think about it, I realize that this was the biggest flaw. ”

Everyone nodded slightly, understanding what the shopkeeper Yue meant.

After all, the newly fired porcelain always carries a kind of thief and fire. Although this trace can be disguised by some means, there will always be a slight change over time. In particular, the pattern on the enamel porcelain is superimposed by multiple layers of colored materials, so the change of gorgeous luster and introverted will be more obvious.

Although this change process is very subtle, it is difficult for ordinary people to notice, but it is absolutely impossible to hide from an experienced expert like the shopkeeper Yue Da. I may not have paid attention to it before, but now with the comparison, I can tell when something was fired.

"So it's been at least two years."

At the right time, Zhang Lao frowned and sighed: "Or longer, I don't know how many things have flowed into the market." ”

The words of the shopkeeper Yue confirmed that it was indeed Mr. Zhu Da who reappeared, and everyone understood the seriousness of the situation, but there was no solution.

You must know that this is not what it used to be, and the antique business now is not the scene of petty fights at the beginning of 20 years ago. Now the antique market has formed a huge scale, not only covering all parts of the country, but even in line with countries around the world. All kinds of intricate interests are entangled, and I am afraid it will be difficult to unite to solve Mr. Zhu Da's affairs......
