"This knife of mine is very suitable, I'll try it and see if I can cut it off"

Fang Ming stretched out his hand and picked up a knife the size of a toothpick, turned the inkstone over, and made a few strokes on it.

"What? Stop it! ”

Zhou Yafang stretched out her hand and snatched the inkstone from Fang Ming's hand.

"Huh? Why is that? ”

Zhou Yafang's actions made Fang Ming quite puzzled, hadn't she already agreed before? Is it now regretting it again?

"Have you ever done an antique restoration?"

Fang Ming shook his head and said, "I've carved before, so I think my hands are still relatively stable, as long as I am careful when planing, I will definitely not hurt this inkstone, have you forgotten?" When I picked up the begonia safflower bowl in the leaky kiln before, didn't I use a Western knife to dig out the bowl hidden inside? It doesn't hurt the Junyao begonia safflower bowl at all. ”

What Fang Ming said was the truth, Zhou Yafang was also present at the time, but she obviously didn't agree with Fang Ming's words, but said, "So what? At that time, we didn't know that there was a bowl in there, and if we did, do you think we would let you plane like that? ”

"Well, then it looks like we're going to have to find a professional who restores antiques."

Fang Ming knew that what Zhou Yafang said was not wrong at all, at that time, if Zhou Yafang or Sikong Zhe and others knew that it was a "bowl in a bowl", they would definitely not let themselves be scraped directly with a knife like that.

"I don't have to look for it, I'll just pass, and I'm more or less a master!"

"Huh? Sister Avon, do you still know this? ”

Fang Ming only now understood why Zhou Yafang was able to easily identify the side of Lu Xuelang Venus Yan that he had picked up, and it turned out to be the master of it, so it was no wonder.

"Okay, then Sister Avon, come on."

Fang Ming handed the inkstone to Zhou Yafang - since there is a master, he naturally no longer insists, no matter which line it is, the principle is the same, that is, professional things must be handed over to professional people to deal with, for example, if it is a leak, then he will naturally be the one who will not give up.

Zhou Yafang took the inkstone and went to the study with Fang Ming and Jiang Wen, where there was a special tool table.

Sitting down in front of the tool table, Zhou Yafang first pulled a lamp, unscrewed it, and then asked Fang Ming to turn off the light on the ceiling.

"This light is so bright!"

Fang Ming secretly admired in his heart, and then he saw Zhou Yafang pull out a shelf from the side, and there was an equally special magnifying glass on the shelf.

"That's good, I'll have to have a set of these tools at home in the future."

Fang Ming looked at it and was greedy, for people who collect antiques, bright lights and magnifying glasses are the two most important tools, although Zhou Yafang's is simple, but it is very practical.

The study was quiet, Zhou Yafang studied the inkstone in her left hand intently, and the knife in her right hand did not move for a long time, obviously thinking about where to get the knife.

This may seem simple, but it's actually very important.

Masters often do it in one go when repairing antiques, so that they can do it naturally, and if you want to do the opposite, you have to find out where the craftsman made the first stroke, and only when you find this one can you break it - Zhou Yafang is looking for such a point at this time.

Time passed slowly, Zhou Yafang's face slowly turned red, this is not shyness, but the natural reaction of physiology after high mental concentration, when a person is in such a state, it is often the most excited time, and can exert extraordinary abilities.

I don't know how long it took, Zhou Yafang suddenly let out a faint breath, and the knife in his right hand was "pointed" to the inkstone.

"Smack!"

A crisp, small sound suddenly sounded, and then I saw a tiny grain fly out. Leaning over to take a look, Fang Ming found that something as big as a half-grain of rice was no longer on the inkstone, leaving a small hole.

Fang Ming was stunned for a moment, and secretly cursed in his heart, he didn't think it was strange that there was a hole in the inkstone, the strange thing was that since Pixiu had repaired the two cracks of the inkstone, why couldn't he repair this pit? Of course, he was also quite disappointed, after all, it was not easy to study that Pixiu evolved a superhuman ability after absorbing the warm current of the Junyao Begonia Saffron Bowl - repair, but now it seems to be a chicken-like existence, Pixiu first, the mercury-like thing that gushes out of its mouth will cause severe pain in his head, which is destined to be used often at all; And now it is even more depressing to find that its restoration is incomplete.

Zhou Yafang didn't know the depression in Fang Ming's heart, everything seemed to be solved after the first knife, she moved one after another, and she didn't stop at all.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

"Bang Bang!"

……

A series of continuous sounds sounded in the study, and with each sound, a small piece of something flew up, and more and more small "pits" appeared on the inkstone.

"Huh?!"

Suddenly, Zhou Yafang let out an exclamation, and then the movements in her hands stopped.

"What's wrong? What's the problem? ”

Fang Ming's words were weak, and he didn't have any thoughts in disappointment, so he had already sat down on the chair next to him.

"Good...... Like is not a simple fix. ”

"Oh? Sister Avon, what do you mean by that? ”

Fang Ming didn't react for a while, and he couldn't hear the surprise in Zhou Yafang's words at this time.

"I mean, it doesn't seem like the repairs were broken, but someone did it on purpose."

Under the snow-white light, with the help of a magnifying glass, every inch of the inkstone is clearly visible, and the reason why Zhou Yafang stopped was that when she picked up the materials used for repair, she found that there were no cracks underneath, nor were there small pits or the like - these two flaws have a significant feature, that is, the edges are not neat, but from the part that has been picked out, the pit is there, and the edge is very neat from morning to night, and it does not look like the common seam pit on antiques, etc.

"Oh......"

Fang Ming's eyes blinked, then glared again, and suddenly jumped up from the chair like a rabbit, rushed to Zhou Yafang, and said loudly, "Sister Yafang, you mean to say that this may not be a flaw?" ”

Nodding slightly, Zhou Yafang said, "Yes, there is indeed such a possibility!" ”

"Bang!"

Fang Ming's right hand was clenched into a fist, slamming the fist on the palm of his left hand, and then said excitedly: "Ha! It's really good. Sister Avon, let me take a look. ”

"Okay, take a look."

Zhou Yafang stood up and gave up her position.

Sitting down, Fang Ming looked through the magnifying glass and found that, as Zhou Yafang said, the edges of those places that had been picked out were very flat, not like cracks or smashed at all, but as if they were carved out with a carving knife.

What's going on here?

After a long time, through the magnifying glass, Fang Ming looked at the back of the inkstone, and the questions in his heart were increasing.

"Sister Avon, what should we do now?"

Putting down the inkstone in his hand, Fang Ming raised his head and looked at Zhou Yafang.

Zhou Yafang said without hesitation: "Just pick out all the places to know what's going on, maybe it's someone inscribed on it or something." ”

"Huh? If this is the case, doesn't that mean that the value of this inkstone will soar? ”

Fang Ming remembered that Zhou Yafang had said before, and the reason why the value of this inkstone was not as high as he estimated was because first, it had been restored, and second, there were no words left by celebrities on it, and it could not be proved that it had been used by celebrities.

The current situation is that once all the "repaired" places are picked out, and below are the words of celebrities mentioned by Zhou Yafang, doesn't that mean that those two shortcomings will disappear completely, and the value will soar?

"Yes, that's right, exactly!"

Zhou Yafang nodded lightly, with her experience, she already knew that there must be something else down here, and now it was just a matter of seeing how much surprise it would bring to people after the so-called "repaired" places were picked up.

However, whatever is underneath, it is certain that the value of this inkstone will skyrocket.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yafang couldn't help but shake her head lightly in her heart, Fang Ming's luck was really good, not to mention the leaks, the place that she thought had been repaired turned out to be a cave, which was really incredible.

"Hah! Sister Avon, then hurry up, I also want to see who left the words below. ”

Fang Ming was quite excited, first of course, the inkstone was facing the possibility of appreciation, and the most happy thing was that Pixiu's ability did not have a problem - it could still repair the flaws on the antique! That's what excites him the most.

"Okay."

Zhou Yafang sat down at the table again, holding the inkstone in one hand and the knife in the other, carefully picking up the repairs filled in on the inkstone.

"Smack!"

"Smack!"

"Bang Bang!"

In the silent room, there was only a slight sound of breathing, and other than that, the sound of things that were picked up by Zhou Yafang from time to time and smashed on the table.

Jiang Wen on the side didn't say anything, but she stared at Zhou Yafang and stared at the inkstone in Zhou Yafang's hand.

"This is an antique? Is this the joy of picking up antiques? ”

Jiang Wen's little face was flushed, although she said that this inkstone was not picked up by herself, and she may not even know how long it has been since she first picked up the leak, but she is still excited!

She found herself already captivated and thrilled by the allure of antique collecting.

"I must study hard and strive to become a collector as soon as possible!"

Jiang Wen's hands clenched together involuntarily, and secretly swore in her heart that neither Fang Ming nor Zhou Yafang knew what Jiang Wen was thinking at this time, but if they knew, they would definitely be welcome!
