"Huh? Is there another possibility? ”

Zheng Bai made Fang Ming startled, since the scroll of Tang Bohu in front of him came into his hands, he had studied day and night, consulted a lot of information, he believed that he had considered and verified all the circumstances, how could there be the possibility that Fang Ming said but he didn't take into account?

"Brother Fang Ming, what else is possible?"

When Fang Ming, Zheng Bai, and Zhou Yafang were researching before, Jiang Wen didn't say anything, she knew that her ability to identify this aspect was really a little far from the three, so she had been listening to the side, but at this time, she couldn't help but ask.

As for Zhao Zhuzi, he was basically not very interested in this, and he almost fell asleep when he listened to it.

"Fang Ming, is there another possibility? Are you talking about falsification? ”

Zhou Yafang also looked at Fang Ming in surprise, the scroll in front of her and the one that was auctioned off belonged to the situation of "re-emergence", in her opinion, the only possibility was that there was a master who forged it, but it was too real to fake it to this extent.

But since Fang Ming said this, he thought that he already knew where the forgery was, but this didn't make sense, Fang Ming had said that the scroll in front of him was true. Could it be that the one auctioned is fake? But Fang Ming hadn't seen the auction one, so why was he so sure?

Zheng Bai, Zhou Yafang, and Jiang Wen's eyes were all focused on Fang Ming's body, and they wanted to know how Fang Ming explained this matter.

"The first thing I'm going to talk about is rice paper."

Fang Ming's words made Zhou Yafang and the others stunned, they didn't understand why this was on the rice paper.

Xuan paper originated in Jing County, Anhui Province, originated in the Tang Dynasty, to the Song Dynasty, Huizhou, Chizhou, Xuancheng and other places of the paper industry slowly concentrated in Jing County, Xuancheng has become the distribution center of Xuan paper, is the ancient Chinese used for writing and painting paper, characterized by the preservation of relatively easy, and many years is not brittle, not easy to fade, so it is called "paper longevity millennium", has the reputation of the king of paper.

However, what does this have to do with whether the picture in front of you is Tang Bohu's book or not?

Zhou Yafang and Zheng Bai glanced at each other, and then said, "This...... Fang Ming, what is the relationship between this rice paper and the identification of this scroll? ”

"It's related, and it's a big deal."

Fang Ming pointed to Tang Bohu's scroll spread on the table, and continued: "This scroll is written on rice paper, it is very likely

Will it have nothing to do with rice paper? ”

Zheng Bai shook his head and said, "Fang Ming, do you want to identify whether this scroll is Tang Bohu's from the age of the paper used in the scroll?" ”

Counterfeiting is the forgery of the calligraphy and painting of the predecessors, but the paper used by many people when they forgery is not the paper at that time, so there is indeed a way to achieve the purpose of identification by identifying the age of the paper in the identification of calligraphy and painting, but this method is of little use for the identification of the scroll in front of you.

In fact, Zheng Bai had already tried this method before, and according to his analysis, the paper used in the scroll in front of him was consistent with Tang Bohu's age, so it was impossible to identify it in this way.

Shaking his head, Fang Ming said, "No, what I want to say is not this. ”

This next week, Avon was even more strange, saying, "Huh? Not this? Which one is that? What exactly are you trying to say. ”

"We all know that rice paper is actually layered, that is to say, a piece of rice paper can actually be peeled off layer by layer, some announce that there are three or five layers, some may have more, seven or eight layers or ten layers, this is possible."

"Well, this is indeed a feature of rice paper, but what does this have to do with the identification of the scroll in front of you?"

Zheng Bai is a master of collecting, and he is still very clear about this characteristic of rice paper, but he still doesn't understand what Fang Ming wants to say.

"I've heard that there is a method of counterfeiting called 'uncovering old paintings and calligraphy', and the approximate method is that when a person finds an old painting or calligraphy, he will use the characteristics of rice paper that can be layered, and try his best to uncover a painting and calligraphy into several pieces. Of course, this practice will naturally lead to the reduction of the original color, but in this case, you can use other rice paper as the base, and then support a few layers, and then see where the ink color is lighter, add a little as much as possible, if there is a new place to exulate, you can use a special method to make the old. It is extremely difficult to distinguish the real from the fake, and sometimes if the ink color is not greatly reduced, it will simply remain the same and not add color, so that it is completely authentic. ”

Zhou Yafang's eyes widened and said, "Huh? Is there such a way? ”

Fang Ming nodded and said, "Yes, this is indeed a method, and it is an extremely clever method. The characteristic of rice paper is that it is basically uneven when it is formed at one time, so there must be several

Zhang is stacked, so it leaves a huge loophole for counterfeiters. Of course, this is also related to the fact that most paintings and calligraphy after the Ming Dynasty were painted on rice paper. ”

"Alas!"

Zheng Bai sighed, nodded, and said, "Fang Ming, what you said is right, there is indeed such a method, I have heard of this method before, but this method is not easy to operate. You must know that the rice paper itself is already very thin, and it is not easy to peel off the calligraphy and painting layer by layer after it is on it. So I didn't think in this direction for a while. ”

Zheng Bai thinks that this is a very possible thing, because only in this way can he explain why the scroll in his hand is exactly the same as the one in the auction and both are true: because it was taken off from the same piece of rice paper, that is, painted by the same person, how could it be different, how could it not be true?

"Isn't it? Is there really such a thing? ”

Zhou Yafang's eyes widened, she felt that this thing was really incredible.

"Not only us, but also some of the experts I found in painting and calligraphy experts all agreed that this was the real thing, so this should be the only possibility, or it would not be possible to explain why there were two identical scrolls, and they were both real."

Zheng Bai was also a little unconvinced, but this should be the only possibility, "Of course, unless you are a master among the masters, you really don't dare to do such a thing." You must know that this is Tang Bohu's true handiwork, ordinary people can't wait to give it up when they get it, where do they want to get it or dare to do such a thing? ”

"That'...... Does it mean that in addition to the auction one, there is also the one in front of you, and there are other authentic works? ”

Jiang Wen felt that if the rice paper could really be peeled off, then it would naturally be possible to peel off two layers, which meant that there were more of the same authentic works.

"Yes, it is possible."

Fang Ming nodded, there is more than just one layer of rice paper that can be removed, so the situation that Jiang Wen said does exist, and it is very possible.

"It seems that in the world of antiques, anything can happen."

Jiang Wen's exclamation made Fang Ming, Zhou Yafang and Zheng Bai look at each other, this is the case, the identification and various bureaus in antiques involve too many things, and all kinds of bizarre things are possible: how many books and scrolls that are all genuine have appeared, what else will not happen?

"Fang Ming, then how much do you think my book is worth?"

After figuring out what was going on, Zheng Bai's whole person finally relaxed, this book tossed himself for a long time, and now that the mystery has finally been revealed, he can finally care about how much his leak is worth.

"It's worth as much as you sell, because it's all genuine. Of course, there is also a premise, that is, this is not colored, which will have to be slowly re-evaluated.

In fact, it was said that this was the case, but Fang Ming knew that the scroll in front of him had not been treated like this, because Pixiu had already "identified" its value, so it could leave a "tail" and reduce Zheng Bai's doubts about his omnipotence.

It is reasonable to say that the value is the same as the auction volume, after all, this is all genuine, why is the one in front of you not as good as the original one? Moreover, there is no comparison, I really don't know which one is the top layer, if the one in Zheng Bai's hand is the one that was removed, it would be a terrible thing, and it would be more valuable than the auction volume.

"Hahaha! Elder Zheng, the person who has already bought that volume must be a rich man, if he hears that you have such a volume in his hand, he may try his best to buy yours at a high price. ”

It's definitely possible, because then all the authentic works are in that person's hands, and the value is even higher.

This is actually similar to another practice in the antique dealership, that is, if there are three identical porcelain, in order to sell it for a better price, you have to smash the other two.

Zheng Bai immediately shook his head and said, "I won't sell this scroll, I can make it an heirloom." ”

"Hahahaha!"

Fang Ming laughed, it was not surprising that Zheng Bai had such an idea, in fact, many people who play antiques have such an idea, they must find one or several pieces as heirlooms to pass on. It must be said that Tang Bohu's calligraphy and painting are really suitable as heirlooms.
