Just now Liu Qinshu heard that this piece of ink in front of her was probably the famous Li Mo, and she was stunned, when Liu Lao said this, she came back to her senses again, and couldn't wait to ask: "Dad, is this piece of ancient ink really Li Mo?" ”

Liu Lao waved his hand and said, "Don't interrupt, let Ah Zhe speak first!" ”

Liu Sizhe said: "The resemblance is very similar, and not only resemblance, I think from the perspective of characteristics, it is exactly the same as the real Li Mo." But in addition to not daring to confirm because Li Mo is too valuable, I also have a little question, since this ink ingot is Li Mo, how can it still look so new after so many years? ”

Liu Lao nodded with satisfaction: "You also know the severity of it, and you don't have to affirm or deny the authenticity of this thing in one bite." ”

Liu Sizhe said with a smile: "After all, there is only one piece of Li Mo in the world now, I don't dare to determine its authenticity casually, otherwise, it's okay to say if it's true, if it's an imitation, then I have to be laughed off by others." ”

"Achen, what do you think?" Liu Lao turned his head to look at Chu Chen.

"Master, you also know that I don't have a deep study of ancient ink, and there are too few clues left by this ancient ink, if the gold pattern on the ancient ink, or the style can be left, it will be much easier to identify its authenticity. So my current conclusion is basically the same as Ah Zhe's. Chu Chen replied.

"Hmmm! You're right! Liu Lao said: "However, it is impossible to show all the clues in the antique identification, otherwise there will not be so many people in this industry." With the current clues, I can confirm the authenticity of the thing, but I will tell the results. You also know what it is, but you don't know why. So before I do that, let me ask you a question. ”

"Tell me!"

"Did you think about it before? Is there any way to accurately identify the results? ”

Chu Chen said: "We have thought of two ways before. One is to study ink directly, but this method is too tyrannical, so everyone doesn't agree. The other is to take a little bit of the powder of ancient ink in an appropriate amount and take it to be identified by an instrument, but it is also somewhat damaged to ancient ink. ”

Hearing this, Liu Lao asked, "No?" ”

Chu Chen and Liu Sizhe glanced at each other, and then both shook their heads.

"O you! I just can't turn a corner! Liu Lao smiled: "Let me ask you another question, if it is in ancient times, except for the article of grinding ink." What other ways can prove Li Mo's authenticity? Before thinking about it, you'd better carefully recall the characteristics of Li Mo that Ah Zhe said just now. ”

"What's the solution?" The two began to think about it, and after a while, when Chu Chen remembered the characteristics of Li Mo that Liu Sizhe said just now, his face suddenly changed, and he understood what Liu Lao meant.

"Do you remember? Tell me, what is the easiest way to identify whether it is Li Mo or not? Liu Lao asked with a smile.

"Just put it in the water and see if it melts." After speaking. Chu Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, everyone was a fan of the authorities just now, otherwise they would have been able to confirm the authenticity of Gu Mo a long time ago.

"Hey! Such a simple way, why didn't I think of it! Liu Sizhe slapped his thigh violently. A look of chagrin.

Liu Lao smiled and said, "The ancients didn't have a good way to identify Li Mo at that time, and they were reluctant to use it. Therefore, the only way to identify the authenticity of things is to immerse them in water. And this knowledge happens to be painted with red paint, and it is soaked in water at every turn. It won't be long before it melts away and becomes blurry! ”

After listening to Liu Lao's explanation, the two of them looked stunned.

At this time, Liu Qinshu asked: "The red paint will melt away, but the gold painting shouldn't melt away, right?" ”

Liu Lao explained: "It's true that the gold painting can't be dissolved, but since Li Mo is so precious and unwilling to use it, it should be normal to play with it normally, right?" In the long run, how many possibilities do you think there is in the gold painting above, which will be preserved to this day after a thousand years? ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, not to mention a thousand years, if you play it often, after five hundred years, the gold painting on it is enough to choke.

"Actually, there's another thing that comes out of that."

Liu Lao said again: "You must all know that after playing with things for a long time, a layer of pulp will form on the surface, and the pulp has a good protective effect on cultural relics, plus each owner cherishes this piece of ancient ink very much, and now it looks so new and preserved so well, it also makes sense." ”

"Bang Bang!"

As soon as Liu Lao's words fell, Chu Chen couldn't help but take the lead in offering warm applause. At this time, he also sighed very much in his heart, although he could identify the value of the age of things 100% with his ability, which can be said to be more powerful than Liu Lao.

But in other aspects, he couldn't help but sigh that ginger was still old and spicy. Let's just say that he had noticed the vague knowledge on the ancient ink for a long time, but he didn't think much about it at all, so how could he deduce the clues to identify the ancient ink?

In addition, starting from the wear and tear of the gold painting, and inferring that the original owner has been playing with it, to the pulp to keep the ancient ink intact as new, how could Chu Chen not admire such experience and vision?

Since he had the ability, although Chu Chen has always been very modest and cautious, he is still young after all, and he has some fluttering feelings in his heart, and if he continues like this, sooner or later he will become proud and complacent. Although he can be invincible with his ability at that time, he can't just say the result of the ability without saying the reason, right?

Today's lesson of Liu Lao made Chu Chen wake up again, although he is powerful, but his qiē is all brought to him by his ability, in case the ability suddenly disappears like it appeared, then can he still realize his personal value like now?

"There's still a lot to learn!" Thinking of this, Chu Chen secretly sighed.

At this time, Liu Qinshu couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Dad, do you mean that this piece of ancient ink is undoubtedly genuine?" ”

Liu Lao replied: "Although I think this piece of ancient ink is the famous Li Mo, this is my family's words after all, and it is better to say less of your word 'undoubtedly'." ”

Although Liu Lao's words left a certain amount of leeway, with his vision and experience, everyone also understood that this piece of Li Mo was indeed a genuine product. This made both the aunt and nephew very excited, and Chu Chen, who had already known the result, was also very happy.

Seeing this, Liu Lao said with a smile: "Don't be happy too early, although I think the thing is genuine, but as I said just now, this is just my family's words, such a valuable thing, it is better to let other experts identify it again." ”

Liu Sizhe shook his head when he heard this: "Grandpa, there shouldn't be many experts in our capital who have seen the real Li Mo, right?" Even if they show them, they are based on experience, according to the introduction of Li Mo by the ancients, and compare. Rather than this, I think it is better to put the ancient ink in the water, which is more realistic. ”

Chu Chen also smiled: "Master, I also think what Ah Zhe said is right, just put it in the water and soak it, and you can save some time." ”

Liu Lao disagreed: "Ah Chen, there is a hidden danger in what you do, with the expression of this piece of ancient ink, let's talk less, it should have been made for hundreds of years, if it is not Li Mo, it will be a pity to melt it in the water?" ”

When Liu Sizhe heard this, he felt that it was indeed quite reasonable, and said: "Brother Chen, I think grandpa is right, this piece of ancient ink, it is better to let other experts take a look, although it is a little troublesome, but it is also a lot safer, and I believe that it will be impossible to say that the truth is fake at that time!" ”

Chu Chen said: "Okay, when our Beijing Antique Association gathers next month, I will let everyone help identify this ink ingot." ”

"Then no, I still have an invitation to the exchange meeting, I'm too old to go and go, Achen, you can go for me."

Speaking of this, Liu Lao said to Liu Qinshu: "Xiao Shu, you go and bring the invitation, and by the way, bring the gift that Lao Guan brought to Achen." ”

"Guan Lao gave me a gift, what's going on?" Chu Chen felt a little strange when he heard this.

Liu Lao explained: "It's not because of that Du Yuncheng, he feels very sorry for you, and when you weren't at home some time ago, he brought a pair of hats over, saying that he was making amends to you." ”

When Chu Chen heard that this was the case, he said: "Guan Lao is too polite, besides, this matter is not his responsibility, he doesn't need to do this at all, wait a few days, I must return the things to him." ”

Liu Lao smiled and said: "You can think so, it's really good, but Lao Guan can't hold things in his heart, and he is stubborn, if you don't accept him, he will definitely not give up, and the things are too valuable, you can accept it......"

Speaking of this, Liu Qinshu walked over with something, and the pair of hats that Liu Lao said turned out to be square and shallow hats for the characters.

The hat tube appeared in the Jiaqing and Daoguang periods of the Qing Dynasty, and it was a utensil for officials to put official hats, with a wide variety, exquisite pictures, rich and strong colors, and the shape was round, square, hexagonal, and the common ornamentation was people, landscapes, animals, fruits, flowers, birds, fish and insects.

The specific characteristics of the hat tube are that the picture of the Tongzhi device is bright and bright, and there are flowers and plants deformed and lotus petals on the edge and bottom of the mouth; The Guangxu ware ornamentation is thinner and contains less powder; The Republic of China is delicate and elegant.

The pair of hats in front of me are composed of the four major subjects of Chinese painting: landscapes, figures, flowers and birds, and cordyceps. On one side, there is a "Pinqing" style.

Pinqing refers to Jin Pinqing, the name, the word Pinqing, the number Hanfeng Mountain People, and Yishan Qiaozi. Its landscapes, flowers and birds are good, the landscape Xi Wumen painting school Shen Zhou, belongs to the Nanzong landscape all the way, flowers and birds learn Jiang Tingxi, Hua Qiuyue, calligraphy copy Dong Qichang. Tong Chengmen and Wang Shaowei are the leaders of the literati school of light silk porcelain. He once worked in the Qing Imperial Kiln Factory, and Wang Shaowei was called "the two pens of the Imperial Kiln Factory". Together with Cheng Men and Wang Shaowei, it is known as the "Three Masters of Light Porcelain Painting". (To be continued......)
