Chapter 287 [Witness the Moment of Miracle]
"How can several experts disagree, so is this copper furnace real?"
"I think this copper furnace is a fake, and Mr. Ma deliberately said this in order to save some face for that young man. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
"No, an expert as big as Mr. Ma can still talk nonsense with his eyes open."
There were many discussions among senior Tibetan friends at the treasure appreciation conference, but no one believed that this copper furnace was really a famous Xuande furnace. There is no way, the genuine Xuande furnace is too rare, and the vast majority of the so-called Xuande furnace in the antique market are fakes imitated by later generations. And the copper furnace in Song Zixuan's hand really doesn't look very good, which has to make people suspicious.
"You guys are talking nonsense, this copper furnace is an antique."
Song Xiaoyu waved his fleshy pink fist, eager to go up and beat these people's chests.
This copper stove is the hope of their whole family, and if they can't sell it for a satisfactory price, I'm afraid they will have to sell the house to pay off their debts.
"Xiaoyu, don't mess around."
Song Zixuan's face turned pale, and she endured the loss in her heart. Even so many experts can't tell the authenticity of this copper incense burner, and surely no one is willing to take the risk of paying for it. Although she was short of money, she never thought of fooling people with fake antiques, and now she had to go home first and then find a way.
"I'm sorry Expert Qin, I've caused you trouble. Anyway, thank you for your help. Song Zixuan looked disappointed and wanted to take this Xuande furnace back.
Qin Fan hurriedly grabbed Song Zixuan's little hand in a hurry and explained to her, "Don't get me wrong, I didn't sympathize with you to deliberately identify this Xuande furnace as genuine." I can be 100% sure that this Xuande furnace is genuine. ā
"What you said is true?"
A touch of joy appeared on Song Zixuan's face, and suddenly she noticed that her little hand was still grabbed by Qin Fan, and her face immediately flushed with shyness, and she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
"Scoundrel, when are you going to touch it. Don't let go of my sister yet. ā
Seeing this hooligan holding his sister's hand, Song Xiaoyu pounced on him with a snort and bit Qin Fan's arm.
Hey, this kid is a dog, why is he still biting.
Qin Fan's hand was bitten out of a row of gums by this half-sized loli, and he hurriedly let go of Song Zixuan's little hand.
"Your hands are all right." Song Zixuan's small hand was withdrawn from Qin Fan's big hand and asked a little worriedly.
"This rascal's skin is so thick, sister, my teeth were almost gnawed."
Qin Fan was just about to speak, but he was sued by this little Loli villain first, and three black lines hung on his head.
"Xiao Qin, the identification of the Xuande furnace is a major problem in the antique world. Chen Lao and I judged from the style, shape and sound of this Xuande furnace that it should be genuine. Other experts questioned the sheen on the copper stove, believing it to be a fake. What do you think? ā
Teacher Ma wanted to hear Qin Fan's appraisal opinion.
Although the identification of the Xuande furnace is quite difficult, it is not completely impossible.
Mr. Ma summarized the identification methods of several types of ratios. One is to look at the shape, the early Xuande furnace is imitation of the Song Dynasty, if you are familiar with the classic shape of the famous porcelain of the Song Dynasty, you can see the clues. The second is the ratio of materials, the gold content of high-quality Xuande furnace is about 3%, so it will sink much more than ordinary copper furnaces. The third is to listen to the sound, because the Xuande furnace is refined from brass, the sound is very pleasant.
Judging from the above points, this Xuande furnace is very likely to be genuine.
It's just that the opinions of several other experts are contrary to Mr. Ma's, the genuine Xuande furnace is warm and moist, and the treasure light is inside. And this dirty copper furnace has a dull luster, and there is nothing special about it at all.
"Teacher Ma, I want to do a magic trick in front of everyone, and then I will be able to know the authenticity of this Xuande furnace."
"Magic?"
Hearing that Qin Fan was suddenly about to change his magic, everyone was stunned for a moment, not knowing what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.
With that, Qin Fan went to fetch some water to wet the rag, and then wiped off all the mud and dirt on the copper incense burner.
"Hey, what the hell are you trying to do. If I break my incense burner, I will pay for it. Song Xiaoyu was afraid that Qin Fan would damage this copper incense burner, so he grinned.
"Xiaoyu, don't bother him, I'm sure Expert Qin won't lie to us."
Although Song Zixuan didn't know what Qin Fan was going to do, she still chose to believe Qin Fan.
"Sister, did you take the wrong medicine? What if he is damaged by our incense burner, don't you like this rascal? ā
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Song Zixuan's face turned red, and she hurriedly covered Song Xiaoyu's mouth. Otherwise, with this little girl's lawless character, she can really say anything.
After wiping off the plaster on the copper incense burner, in everyone's puzzled eyes, Qin Fan didn't know where to get an alcohol lamp, then lit the alcohol lamp, and put the copper incense burner on the alcohol lamp.
"What did he want to do with the incense burner on the alcohol lamp?"
These senior collectors and several experts all said that they were confused, and they couldn't figure out what Qin Fan wanted to do. Could this prove the authenticity of this Xuande furnace?
Song Xiaoyu was so anxious that she screamed, if she hadn't been stopped by her sister, she would have rushed over and pounded Qin Fan's chest with her small fist.
"The camera leaned over a little and pointed at Expert Qin."
When the beautiful reporter of Yanjing TV saw that something was happening, she hurriedly came over, held the microphone and asked Qin Fan with a curious expression, "Expert Qin, can I interview you, may I ask what is your purpose in burning this incense burner with an alcohol lamp?" ā
"You'll know later, and then it's time to witness the miracle."
Qin Fan didn't explain much, and the onlookers and senior Tibetan friends could only wait on the sidelines to see what kind of miracle would happen next.
After a long time, just when everyone was impatient, there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd.
"You see, the color on this censer seems to have changed."
"The color has changed? How is this possible, Lao Wang, are you looking at flowers. ā
"Huh, weird. I also saw that the color on the incense burner seemed to have really changed. What's going on. ā
The reporter of the TV station was shocked, and hurriedly pointed the camera at the Xuande furnace in front of Qin Fan, staring at the copper furnace without blinking, for fear of missing any detail.
Under the lens of the camera, the color on this Xuande furnace is as brilliant and changeable as the sunset on the horizon, blooming with a strange luster.
Seeing this wonderful scene, the two sisters, Song Zixuan and Song Xiaoyu, opened their mouths into an O-shape, rubbed their eyes vigorously, and showed an incredible expression on their faces.
"Sister, I'm not dreaming, this incense burner still changes color?"
The senior collectors who questioned and ridiculed Qin Fan before all closed their mouths at this time, not knowing how to express the emotions in their hearts.
No one expected that this copper incense burner would undergo such a miraculous change.
The beautiful reporter of the TV station was full of excitement and excitement, and this paragraph would definitely cause a sensation if it was broadcast.
"Expert Qin, how could this copper incense burner change like this, please explain it to the audience in front of the TV." The beautiful reporter looked at Qin Fan with blank eyes, and the microphone was about to poke into his nostrils.
"In addition to brass, the Xuande furnace is also cast with precious metals such as gold and silver, so it will show many different colors. According to the description of the ancients, the most wonderful thing about the Xuande furnace is the color, and its color melts inside, and it emits a strange light from the gloom. If it is burned on the fire for a long time, the color will be brilliant and changeable, and even if it is thrown into the sludge, it will still be as bright as new after wiping off the sludge. ā
Historical records record that Xuande furnace has more than 40 kinds of colors, which are loved by the world. It is said that the Xuande furnace has five colors, Buddhist scripture paper, chestnut shell, eggplant skin, tang pear, brown, among which the Buddhist scripture paper is the most.
Shanghai Duoyunxuan auctioned a copper furnace in 1995, the color can reach the Buddhist scripture paper, if it is put to the present value of at least tens of millions.
Hearing Qin Fan's explanation, Song Zixuan and the Tibetan friends who were watching suddenly realized, and their eyes were full of admiration when they looked at Qin Fan.
As for those who questioned Qin Fan, their faces were red and their ears were dry, and they felt a hot pain on their faces.
"It's so colorful, and it glows out of the gloom. Xiaofan, you didn't disappoint us. Old Man Chen Zhimu was in a good mood and patted Qin Fan's shoulder vigorously.
"Hehe, it is said that the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and we old guys can't accept the old anymore."
The experts who identified this Xuande furnace as a fake were all a little gloomy, with a helpless wry smile on their faces.
"So, this incense burner is really an antique?"
Song Zixuan saw the expressions of these people around her, and asked with some uncertainty.
"Of course it's true, sister, didn't you listen to those people, this is a priceless treasure." Song Xiaoyu's face flushed with excitement, and he snorted proudly.
It's just that Song Zixuan is not interested in any priceless treasure, she just wants to hurry up and sell this antique to her father for treatment and solve the family's difficulties.
"Little girl, I am the owner of Saxo Court. I can pay 2 million for this Xuande furnace, you think about it. ā
"Lao Wang, you are really shameless, 2 million just want to receive this fine Xuande furnace. I'm out 250, no, 2.6 million! ā
"Hey, didn't you all say that this incense burner was fake just now, why are you grabbing it again now. Little girl, don't pay attention to these liars, I'll pay 2.8 million here. ā
"Aren't you the one you said you were going to eat?"
Song Zixuan was surrounded by a group of antique dealers, and the whole person was confused, not knowing what to do.
This is not surprising, there are countless imitations of Xuande furnaces in the antique market, and the genuine Xuande furnaces cast during the real Xuande period are extremely rare. If you pass this village, you won't have this shop.
And if you buy this Xuande furnace at a price of more than 2 million, the value will at least increase several times in a few years, no matter how you calculate it, you will make a sure profit.
Song Zixuan originally thought that even if this incense burner was really an antique, it would be worth hundreds of thousands, but who knew that it didn't take long for it to be shouted at a sky-high price of 2.8 million, and it seemed that it was only a matter of time before it broke through 3 million.
But at this moment, Song Zixuan didn't dare to buy this Xuande furnace easily.
