Chapter 147: Fang Ming's Problem

Thousands of years of history have not only created a splendid civilization and culture, but also left countless ancient objects, so the difficulty of antique identification is here - there are too many things, and when the manpower is poor, how can it be possible to study all the objects or study them deeply?

This is absolutely impossible, so most people just study a certain aspect and choose the smallest one to study.

The same is true for people who open antique shops, it is impossible to be proficient in all antiques, which is not a problem at all in normal times, and it is not possible to see that they simply do not accept it, or buy it at a price that they can accept and then change hands. But if someone comes to kick the gym, it's different, you can't say that you're not familiar with something, you haven't researched it and you retreat, right?

This was impossible, and Fang Ming was facing such a problem at this time.

Gently opening the box, Fang Ming saw that there was a stack of papers inside.

Pen, ink and paper inkstone is the four treasures of the study, the pen and ink paper inkstone is a unique writing tool in China, it is said to have originated in the period of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, of course, in the long historical process, the specific reference to the four treasures of the study has changed, for example, in the Southern Tang Dynasty, refers to the Zhuge pen, Huizhou Li Tinggui's ink, Chengxintang's paper, Wuyuan (now Jiangxi) Longwei inkstone. However, after the Song Dynasty, it refers to the Hubi in Huzhou, Zhejiang Province, Huimo in Shexian County, Anhui Province, and the Xuan paper in Jing County, Anhui Province. yb}{du}.} Now the Duanyan of Zhaoqing, Guangdong Province and the Sheyan of She County, Anhui Province.

First of all, the pen, in order to pursue the effect of different writing, in the long groping in the choice of a lot of materials to make pens, such as rabbit hair, white wool, green wool, ****, fetal hair, yellow wool, wolf tail, fox hair, etc., the pen of different materials to bring the writing effect is completely different, in addition to the production of the pen "milli", but also in the material of the pen barrel has a high pursuit, such as ordinary bamboo, of course, well, there are bamboo, bamboo, chicken bamboo, etc., the wood aspect has wenge, pear, purple wood, etc., animal horns have also become materials for making pens, ivory, cow horns, and so on.

The most common classification is based on the performance of the pen, which is generally divided into hard, soft and medium. Generally speaking, the pen made of the hair on the weasel's tail is called the wolf pen, that is, the hard pen, which is characterized by relatively large elasticity and strong strength, and the written word bone is strong; The soft pen is mainly made of rabbit hair, goat hair and other soft hair, characterized by the writing of the words are soft, round and plump, but because of the poor elasticity, it is not easy to control, generally speaking, it is used to write relatively large words or in ink painting to draw leaves or render; In the milli is also called both the milli, is the boundary between the hard milli and the soft milli, usually the choice of sheep millimeter and wolf milli two made together, characterized by soft with hard, hard with soft, written out of the word both bone and meat, so many people like.

Paper is one of the four great inventions of China, and it is also the most important writing material, and the inkstone is known as the way of the four treasures of the study, because the ink used for writing is to add water to the inkstone to grind, which is the so-called "ink stone". Fang Ming is no stranger to the inkstone, because he had only missed a stone inkstone made of Xuelang Venus Stone before, but at this time, what was placed in the box was not a pen, nor a paper, nor an inkstone, but ink.

Ink is one of the most important materials in ancient Chinese writing and painting, the main raw materials are carbon black, pine smoke and glue, etc., which are first made into block ink ingots, which are ground with water when used, so that charcoal or smoke mixed with glue melts into water and can be used for writing.

Fang Ming stretched out his hand and picked up the ink.

"Fake."

Pixiu didn't appear, the back of his hand was empty, Fang Ming immediately knew that this was fake, if it was usually a leak, he would definitely let it go, and he wouldn't care about it anymore, but not now, because thank you Shi This is coming to kick the hall, it's not enough to just identify the fake, and you have to say why.

Otherwise, he would not be able to convince the public, his brows were tightly twisted, forming a pimple, and now there was no way out, Fang Ming could only desperately recall the books he had guarded, and see if he had seen some relevant information.

Xie Shi kept staring at Fang Ming, he was also quite nervous in his heart, he was also ruined this time. The store has been open for a few years, and business has been very poor, and he is also in a hurry, Fang Ming is an opponent after thousands of picks. First, Fang Ming has been in the limelight recently, and only by defeating such an opponent can he make a name for himself; Second, Fang Ming is relatively young and inexperienced, so he has a good chance of winning.

It was after taking these factors into account that he insisted on coming to the gym, but how could he not be worried at all?

If you lose, you will be gambling everything you have - although your store is not open in a small antique street, but this circle is small, and it is easy for others to find out where you come from, how can you have the face to be in this circle at that time?

Moreover, Fang Ming's recent limelight is really too strong, it's not that he heard that he has picked up leaks, so his pressure is quite great.

So since Fang Ming took the box and opened it, he had been staring at Fang Ming deadly, trying to see a hint from Fang Ming's face, at the beginning, Fang Ming's face was not abnormal at all, Xie Shi's heart jumped wildly, thinking if the other party was sure?

When he saw Fang Ming's eyebrows twisted up and formed a pimple, his heart slowly relaxed.

"Damn, this kid really scared the hell out of me."

However, Xie Shi immediately felt that he was too ridiculous, thinking to himself how could this kid Fang Ming be able to identify the contents of the box?

That's my own preparation!

As the minutes passed, Xie Shi became more and more calm, and the smile on his face became more and more, the longer Fang Ming looked at it, the more uncertain he was about what was in the box, and more importantly, he found that the pimples in Fang Ming's eyes were getting bigger and bigger.

"Humph! It's up to you to do this!? ”

If it weren't for Fang Ming's shop, Xie Shi wanted to move a chair over and sit down at this time, and make another cup of tea to drink it well, what could be the most interesting thing in this world than appreciating that his "enemy" was in trouble?

Feeling that the corner of her clothes was being pulled by someone, Zhou Yafang looked back and found that it was Jiang Wen, looking at herself with an uneasy expression, obviously worried about Fang Ming.

To be honest, Zhou Yafang was also very worried at this time, no one knew Fang Ming's shortcomings better than her: picking up leaks is not a problem, and identification is not a problem, but if you want to tell a reason, it is a problem - this is Fang Ming's current flaw, after all, the time to enter the industry is too short, and it is too lacking in basic knowledge.

Finding leaks can be based on intuition, but identifying antiques and convincing others is not an easy task.

But at this time, she knew that she could still show any worries, otherwise Jiang Wen would definitely be even more worried, and it would not be good for the matter.

Nodding slightly, Zhou Yafang motioned for Jiang Wen not to worry.

However, many of the people around me were nearby shopkeepers or collectors, and they slowly began to see the clues, so they slowly began to discuss.

"It turns out that ink, this is an unpopular thing in the collection."

"Yes, it seems that Fang Ming is in trouble this time, but it's not surprising, this thing is not accessible to ordinary people at all, but there are many doorways in it, it's really not easy to figure it out."

"That's the reason.,If you don't usually accept this thing, it's fine.,But now I'm kicking the gym.,You can't just say I'm not good at it and shirk it, right?"

"Yes, there is a good show to watch this time, but I am not optimistic about Fang Ming, you see that he is like that, he obviously doesn't know much about ink."

"yes, I'm not optimistic either."

……

The discussion was like a spring silkworm, and there were basically no people who were optimistic about Fang Ming-although he had already picked up a lot of leaks, the matter of picking up leaks was still quite unreliable after all, making it impossible to distinguish whether it was strength or luck.

Jiang Wen slowly became anxious, of course she heard these discussions, which made her heart rise again after listening to Zhou Yafang's words.

"Ink identification is difficult?"

Jiang Wen became more and more anxious, but she knew that she couldn't do anything, she could only look at Fang Ming, and she could only wait.

Noticing Jiang Wen's strange appearance, Zhou Yafang pulled her hand, and then said in a very low voice: "Don't worry, it's useless to be anxious, we will also help Shang Ming now, wait." ”

"yes, I understand."

Jiang Wen knew that what Zhou Yafang said was not bad at all, but how could she not be nervous or worried?

As the minutes passed, the atmosphere in the store became more and more depressing, like the sky before a heavy rain, and before you knew it, everyone felt that they couldn't breathe a little.

Of course, there is also a person who is proud, that is, Xie Shi, Fang Ming has not said a word for such a long time, he can only say that it proves that he has encountered difficulties, and this is a good thing for himself, and it is a great thing.

"Humph! You know it's amazing, you can't see it. ”

Xie Shi secretly rejoiced in his heart, the longer the time passed, the more uncertain Fang Ming became, but he didn't plan to give Fang Ming any more time.

"Mr. Fang Ming, I don't know if you've finished the appraisal?"

The people around immediately quieted down when they heard this, everyone looked at Fang Ming, Xie Shi was "forcing the palace", they wanted to see how Fang Ming responded.

However, to the surprise of Great Love, Fang Ming stood there as if he was ashamed, and did not answer Xie Shi's words.

"Fang Ming! What do you think of this piece of ink on me? Is it true or fake? ”

After a while, he found that Fang Ming didn't reply to his words, and Xie Shi, who felt that he had been insulted, raised his voice, as if he was screaming loudly.
