Chapter 714: Tongbao

The candlestick on the note is a handicap, straight belly, and lap foot. () Its abdomen is cylindrical, the upper bearing is open disc, and the hollow inside the plate is the candle holder, which is used for inserting candles, and the lower support is high and round. The paragraph is known as the six-character seal book of the "Qianlong Year of the Qing Dynasty".

Generally speaking, the candlestick of the official kiln is more common in pastel, blue and white, the variety of doucai is rare, and the decoration on the candlestick is more complicated, the whole instrument is divided into eight layers of decorative patterns from top to bottom, respectively, honeysuckle pattern, entwined lotus pattern, back pattern, Ruyi cloud pattern, covered lotus petal pattern, etc., in addition, the underglaze color in addition to blue and white also has red in the glaze, which makes the utensils more eye-catching.

The three candlesticks in the room are all of the same style, and they look very similar to the ones in the notes, but the candlesticks are generally a pair, and from this point, you can see whether the three candlesticks are real or fake.

Despite this, Chu Chen still had the idea that he would rather kill the mistake than let it go, and looked at all the three candlesticks, but what disappointed him was that the knowledge of these three candlesticks was "Yongzheng Year of the Great Qing Dynasty", and it was not what he was looking for.

Putting down the candlestick in his hand, Chu Chen looked at the other things again, and now there was nothing satisfactory, so he walked out.

Next, Chu Chen walked around a few more rooms, but he also didn't find the remaining clues in the notes, this kind of thing he had expected, and he was not disappointed. However, he couldn't even find a thing he liked, and he could only sigh that he was unlucky.

entered another room, in addition to the owner, there was also a guest in the room, and this person Chu Chen also knew, it was the "bone white" Feng Zhengjian.

At this time, Feng Zhengjian was holding his right hand tightly, while chattering with the landlord. I want the landlord to lower the price of the things he fancies.

The owner shook his head and said, "This boss, I'm really sorry. I've already lost money for eight thousand, and I really can't help it if I have less! ”

Feng Zhengjian couldn't make up his mind for a while. But he still held on to the things and refused to let go, and it seemed that he cared very much about the things in his hands.

At this time, Chu Chen walked in, Feng Zhengjian's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly greeted with a respectful face: "Teacher Chu, you are also here today!" ”

Since I was impressed by Chu Chen last time, coupled with Chu Chen's very eye-catching performance on TV later, and the appreciation of the two guests who participated in the treasure appreciation program at the forum, whether it was meeting Chu Chen by chance in the market. or encountered on the Internet, Feng Zhengjian called Chu Chen a teacher.

Chu Chen also mentioned it a few times and asked him not to be so polite, but he was still like this, and Chu Chen went with him.

When the owner heard Feng Zhengjian call Chu Chen, he was slightly surprised at first, but after a while, he remembered where Chu Chen was. This made his eyes a little flustered, and he secretly said "bad luck" in his heart!

Feng Zhengjian didn't notice this, and after exchanging a few words with Chu Chen, he let go of his right hand. He smiled and asked, "Teacher Chu, could you please help me take a look at this coin?" ”

Chu Chen didn't expect that Feng Zhengjian, who had been in the antique business for several years. In a hurry, he would actually commit such a taboo. But it can't be helped, the two are friends after all. Since the other party has asked for his head, he can't refuse.

Chu Chen took the coin in his hand, and at a glance, he realized that this coin was actually Tongbao.

Huitong Tongbao is a small coin, according to the original people, this kind of copper coin was minted in the first year of Liao Taizong (Yelu Deguang), that is, in 938 AD. This era name was used until 947 A.D., when Yelu Deguang changed the Yuan to Datong.

But the strange thing is that there is no record of the coins of the Liao Dynasty in the History of Liao, other ancient books, and in previous numerals. No one has ever appeared before, and it was not until the end of the eighties that a Huitong Tongbao appeared, and the historical facts about the reality of "Huitong Tongbao" also came from this present.

To be honest, Chu Chen is still somewhat skeptical about the storage of Tongbao, of course, this is based on the fact that he has not seen the real thing. But in any case, from the unearthing of the Tongtong treasure, until now, he has only heard of such a unique product, coupled with the nervous look he just noticed the owner of the house, it is not difficult to guess whether this copper coin is real or fake.

But the identification of antiques cannot be based on speculation, and then, Chu Chen still took out a magnifying glass and carefully looked at the coins.

To say, this coin can indeed be fake, in addition to the style of Liao money, the texture is also the same as the real thing, and the green rust covered in the pit also seems to prove its noble identity.

But the fake can't be true, the careful Chu Chen still shows its flaws.

Chu Chen put away the magnifying glass in his hand and looked at the two people in the room, one was full of anticipation, the other was calm, but a little panic flashed in his eyes, in the end, he still sighed secretly, returned the coin to Feng Zhengjian, and said vaguely: "This thing seems to be a little more expensive!" ”

The reason why he didn't say it explicitly was because he took into account the taboos in the industry, and secondly, he saw that the owner of the house probably didn't mean to deceive people, and it was possible that he was also blinded and suffered a big loss, so he sold it at a loss. Otherwise, with a table like Feng Zhengjian, why would the homeowner say such a low price as 8,000?

In fact, after listening to the owner's offer, if Feng Zhengjian was smarter, it would not be difficult to show the trickiness in it, but he was obviously guilty of greed, so that he was fascinated by money.

Now, Feng Zhengjian obviously didn't understand what Chu Chen meant, and after nodding his head and thanking him, he sent Chu Chen out of the door, and then returned to talk to the owner about business.

And the owner of the house saw that his business was not disrupted, and he secretly thanked Chu Chen for being interesting enough, at least he could understand the hardships of the antique businessman.

Chu Chen walked out of the door and couldn't help but smile bitterly, sighing that while Feng Zhengjian was obsessed with money, he was also a little speechless when he was sent out without even looking at the things in the house just now.

Shaking his head, Chu Chen walked into a room next to him again, here, he finally opened the first one of the day and bought a small jade pendant, the market value of the jade pendant was nearly 20,000, but he bought it for 1,000 eight, and he picked up a small leak, and his mood became happy.

Walking out of the door with the jade pendant, Chu Chen met Feng Zhengjian, who had just finished talking about business and had a hint of joy on his face, walking out of the door.

"Teacher Chu, thank you so much just now." Feng Zhengjian hurriedly and respectfully expressed his gratitude.

When Chu Chen heard this, he felt a little crying and laughing, Feng Zhengjian's brain was flexible enough, how could he become confused when he encountered a possibility of picking up a big leak?

Chu Chen sighed and replied, "Boss Feng, don't you understand what I just said?" ”

Feng Zhengjian was stunned when he heard this, and said in amazement: "Teacher Chu, what do you mean by this?" Is it ......?"

"Let's talk over there!"

It is definitely inconvenient to stand at someone else's door and speak, and after speaking, Chu Chen took Feng Zhengjian to the aisle next to him.

At this time, Feng Zhengjian also realized that he must have misunderstood Chu Chen's meaning just now, the reason is very simple, since Chu Chen helped him identify, how could he not say that things are good or bad? Besides, if it's genuine, why should Chu Chen say that things are expensive, this obviously means that things are fakes.

In addition, he also thought that the owner of the house obviously knew what Tongtong Bao was, so why did he sell it to him at such a low price? This is obviously the reason why the other party is likely to be eyed and want to sell at a loss!

Realizing that he was confused, Feng Zhengjian looked very embarrassed, but he looked at the copper coin in his hand, but he really couldn't see where this thing was fake, so he asked: "Teacher Chu, I'm also a fan of money, but I really can't see anything wrong with this Tongbao, please advise!" ”

Chu Chen waved his hand: "Boss Feng, you're polite, before explaining what's wrong with this copper coin, let me go get something first......

With that, he went to a room he had seen before, and bought a copper coin as well.

Chu Chen handed a copper coin he had just bought to Feng Zhengjian and said, "Boss Feng, you compare this Chongxi Tongbao with your Tongtong Treasure to see if there is any difference." ”

Chongxi Tongbao is a small flat coin minted by Emperor Yelu Zongzhen of Xingzong of Liao State during the Chongxi period, although it is rare now, but because of its rough writing, it is not very sought after in the market now.

Feng Zhengjian took the coin, it looked a little strange at first, and when he observed it carefully, he realized the mystery of it, and said in surprise: "What's the matter, this 'Tongbao' on my Tongbao is exactly the same as the word 'Tongbao' on Chongxi Tongbao?" ”

Chu Chen nodded: "Actually, it's not just the word 'Tongbao', if you observe it with a magnifying glass, you will now be the same as Tongbao's 'will' word, in fact, it is the word 'heavy' re-engraved, and the word 'same' is also re-engraved by 'Xi', because it is re-engraved, if you look carefully, you can also see that the size of the word 'Tong' and the other three words are not the same." ”

After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Feng Zhengjian hurriedly took out a magnifying glass and took a closer look, and there were also traces of alteration, which made him smile bitterly: "The craftsmanship of this counterfeiter is too high, and the change is too ingenious, it can almost be said to be seamless, but it still hasn't escaped Teacher Chu's fiery eyes!" ”

"I'm not much of a eye-catcher."

Chu Chen waved his hand, and then said: "The forger's skill is indeed high, if I hadn't been studying Liao Qian during this time, I wouldn't have been able to see this at all." ”

Having said that, in fact, Chu Chen has not been studying Liao Qian recently, as he said, and the reason why he remembers it so clearly is also because of his ability to never forget, and the reason why he explained it like this is that he doesn't want to expose his ability in front of others.
