Fuji Yi shook his head and said, "I heard Master Wang say that after some porcelain is bitten, it is not put into a pot to cook, but buried in the soil or used clay to paste a layer of processed soil inside and out, mixed with lead powder, patina powder and rust powder and other ingredients. ”

"You know this? It's amazing! ”

Looking at Fuji Yi with a serious expression, Liu Yuhao suddenly felt funny and laughed.

Teng Yi is right, the porcelain has been buried for a long time, and the lead, patina or rust powder in the soil has seeped into the small cracks on the surface of the porcelain vase. This practice of burying or pasting the porcelain is called "feeding". Some porcelain has to be repeated and "fed" several times in order to achieve the effect of being really old.

After acid "biting", boiling, and "feeding" with soil, the permanent color is stored in the small pieces on the surface of the porcelain, and the white part of the porcelain surface also becomes yellow.

The colored opening piece is like an old man with a very fine brush, a stroke a day, or a year, slowly painted one stroke at a time, and it looks very long. The pale yellow on the surface of the porcelain also seems to have been slowly smeared by the old man with a paintbrush, which looks very ancient.

If porcelain is excavated from an ancient tomb, the process of aging often ends here. If the porcelain is handed down from the generations of our ancestors, then the process of making the old is not finished.

To make porcelain handed down from our ancestors, the next step is polishing. The craftsman carefully rubs the porcelain with old sack pieces, old cloth pieces and various leathers, and then polishes the bottom of the porcelain.

The porcelain that has been beaten and rubbed looks shiny and soft, and it feels delicate to the touch, as if it has been touched by the hands of many people in many lifetimes. The smooth bottom is like porcelain that has been on the offering table or antique shelf in many homes, and the bottom is polished and slippery.

If the jade pendant and other objects you bring with you are old, the last process is called "plate". The "plate" is to rub and fiddle with this piece of jade with silk and hands.

In addition to the mellow color and good feel, the jade itself also has a human aura. But the amount of this aura can only be understood and cannot be spoken.

Teng Yi is afraid that he doesn't know that the bronze is old, and he also "bites" with acid. "Biting" with acid is to "bite" the smooth surface of the bronze rough or "bite" a few small pieces, and some have to "bite" off many pieces, or "bite" the angular places to smooth out, so that the bronze looks like it has experienced a lot of snow, rain and frost.

To further age, it is to add patina and rust to the bronze. The method is to mix the green patina powder and the dark red rust powder in a certain proportion, and then mix them with high-strength colorless glue, and then brush the "paste" of the stirred patina powder and rust powder on the bronze, and in some places pile up a small piece.

After the preparation is done, the bronze is buried in the damp ground. According to the needs of aging, sometimes the old craftsmen often buried some stones and bronzes together, and then often poured urine on them.

After being buried in this way for a few days or months, the artificial rust on the bronze and the natural rust will be mixed, and some bronzes will also have some fossil crystals and other things. Although the old bronze is a newborn baby, its body is engraved with the vicissitudes of history. Even if an expert sees it, he will be staggered.

But those old tricks can't hide Liu Yuhao's ability, as long as he urges the deerskin atlas, all fakes will have nowhere to hide under his "fiery eyes".

Now the key thing is that Liu Yuhao wants to find the best way to get the mysterious artifact out of the manna bowl unscathed, instead of arguing with Fuji Yi about the old methods in the industry.

After drinking the tea, Liu Yuhao smiled and helped Teng Yi put away the tea sets, and said: "You still have to learn the vision of old objects, and tell you that the luster on the nectar bowl is actually the original appearance of the old glass, and it is not a thief." ”

Fuji Yi shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said with a smile: "It's useless for me to learn those, but Brother Liu, don't forget to teach me two more tricks of the inner fist." ”

In fact, Fuji Yi has the ulterior to learn antique appreciation, but it is a pity that he has always stayed on the surface, no matter how hard he works, he has never seen any progress.

This is probably the truth of what people eat, there are many times when you don't work hard and you will get something, for example, Fuji Yi, he has also worked hard hard, but he can't do it.

It seems that people like Fuji Yi are indeed not suitable to enter the antique circle.

Liu Yuhao didn't refute, smiled and suddenly remembered one thing, and said seriously: "Teng Yi, the matter of the gas cylinder tells the brothers not to make a big deal, especially the brother who is in charge of the inspection, you must be the first generation." ”

The ability to dive to the bottom of the sea for four hours without using a gas cylinder is a horrific thing.

If this matter is spread out after it is intentionally exaggerated, although it will not cause any consequences to Liu Yuhao, with the mentality that more things are better than less, Liu Yuhao still doesn't want to be the focus of attention.

Teng Yi naturally knew the seriousness of the matter, nodded and said: "Brother Liu, you can rest assured, that brother used to be a soldier led by me, and he will nod his head in response to whatever I say, let alone chew the root of his tongue indiscriminately." ”

Liu Yuhao nodded with satisfaction, returned to the desk and continued to study the glass nectar bowl.

"What is not a thief light, I think it is clearly Fengmei Yu!"

Teng Yi saw that Liu Yuhao no longer paid attention to himself, but looked at the nectar bowl on the table blankly, scratched his head, muttered two "bangs", closed the door of the study and walked out.

"Feng Meiyu?"

Liu Yuhao didn't pay attention at first, but a bold thought suddenly appeared in his mind, and his frowning brows also relaxed.

The wind plum jade mentioned by Teng Yi is actually two objects, both of which are related to antique counterfeiting.

Among them, plum jade refers to the person who forges the fake to make utensils with soft texture and poor quality jade, and then boil the jade with high concentration of black plum water, and the soft part of the utensil will be hollowed out by the black plum water, showing traces like water washing.

After a certain amount of heat, the forger will use the oil extraction method to color the jade, pretending to be "Shuikeng Gu". People in the circle call this counterfeit product Meiyu.

More than 20 years ago, the method of forging Meiyu was all the rage and made many connoisseurs look at it, but as time went by, many people had a certain understanding of Meiyu's forgery and fakes, and scammers rarely used that method to deceive.

But there has never been a shortage of clever people in this world.

It didn't take long for the counterfeiters to find a new method of counterfeiting fakes, that is, plum jade boiled in thick gray water and black plum water, taken out by heat, and immediately placed in the wind and snow.

After about a day and night, the jade pattern of the forged artifact is frozen and cracked, and because the forgery is made of jade, the material of the artifact is hard, and the crack after freezing and cracking is uneven in thickness when carefully viewed, and it can be used as a cow hair pattern in the ancient jade.

The scammers added the two methods to create the so-called Fengmei Jade.

Fengmei Yu is similar to Gao Guyu in terms of appearance and characteristics under high magnification, if it is not for the ancient method used by Gao Guyu who knows very well, even if Gao Guyu has been playing for half a lifetime, he will be deceived.

But Fengmeiyu has a weakness, that is, if the temperature is not well controlled, the utensils will explode due to uneven cold and hot forces, so the yield is very low.

But after all, the profit of one piece has increased more than a hundredfold, so there are still many people who study and imitate it, and over the years, Fengmei jade seems to have occupied half of the ancient jade fakes.

Liu Yuhao frowned slightly, and said secretly in his heart: "The texture density of jade is much greater than that of colored glass, and even jade can't withstand uneven cold and hot forces, so isn't it the same for colored glass?" ”

Thinking of this, Liu Yuhao stroked his palms happily and laughed, grabbed the phone and dialed out, and shouted directly at the other end of the phone: "Teng Yi, hurry up and help me prepare black plum and quicklime, by the way, there is also dry ice, be quick!" ”

In fact, it is enough to prepare quicklime and dry ice, quicklime heating can make the glass expand rapidly, while dry ice has the opposite effect.

However, Liu Yuhao was at the critical moment of thinking of solving the problem, and his heart was naturally excited, which inevitably created a little difficulty for Teng Yi.

Fortunately, Teng Yi was not badly lucky, and it only took an hour to prepare all the materials that Liu Yuhao needed and sent them over.

"Brother Liu, what do you want these things for? You don't even know how hard it is to find Ume."

Pushing open the door of the study and seeing Liu Yuhao sitting behind the desk reading a book for a long time, Teng Yi chattered endlessly and complained.

Liu Yuhao didn't dare to say that he was negligent for a while, the black plum that gave Teng Yi the most headache was actually useless to himself, he just stood up and smiled, took the things that Teng Yi brought, waved his hand and said: "Anyway, you don't care, go and prepare the boat first, let's go to sea after the fog clears." ”

"Still at sea? I can't listen to you anymore this time, I'm going to go to sea and say it yourself. ”

Teng Yi's face was full of reluctance, and he shook his head vigorously, he was almost blamed to death by He Jiayi and Li Lumei yesterday, and he would not go to sea with Liu Yuhao privately today if he borrowed his courage.

Liu Yuhao was happy, and even pushed and shoved Teng Yi out of the door, and said with a smile: "Good brother, you go and prepare, and when I'm done, I'll talk to the two of them myself." ”

"That's what you said!"

Teng Yi hesitated for a moment, and when he saw that Liu Yuhao said it was true, he reluctantly nodded in agreement.

Waiting for Teng Yi to leave, Liu Yuhao couldn't wait to put the tools prepared in advance on the desk, and the boiling water was naturally the small red clay stove that Teng Yi brought over.

I don't know how Li Lumei will feel when she sees that the red clay stove she carefully prepared for Liu Yuhao is used like this, anyway, Liu Yuhao can't care so much.

"Goo, goo"

After putting the glass bowl into the boiling water, Liu Yuhao stared at the glass measuring cup with wide eyes and unblinking, in response to the unexpected.
