When the second egg sent Boss Xu and them out of the door, Wu Ke said angrily: "Who are these people, I have never seen a boss in a dignified manner, who is so small-bellied, if you didn't stop me, I would have to scold him." ”

Chu Chen smiled and persuaded: "Coco, dissipate your anger, what's there to be angry with this kind of person, besides, do you think he can make money this time?" ”

Wu Ke was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said with some surprise: "Ah! You're saying there's something wrong with those two things? But I think it's really old, and the craftsmanship is quite exquisite, so it shouldn't be wrong, right? ”

Having said that, she believed in Chu Chen's judgment very much in her heart, and secretly said, could it be that her eyesight was not at home and she had seen things wrong.

Chu Chen smiled and said, "The thing is right, but there is another secret in it." It's not convenient here, we'll talk about it later, anyway, you just need to know that guy has a big loss. ”

When Wu Ke heard this, he immediately smiled: "Haha! I'll just say, God won't let such a person get rich! ”

At this time, Erdan walked back, and when he saw the smiles on everyone's faces, he was still a little strange in his heart, why was he happy when he didn't buy anything?

Just as he was about to ask a question, Hu Yong said, "I said Erdan, you won't let us go back empty-handed, right?" ”

Of course, Erdan also knew that if it weren't for Chu Chen, he wouldn't have been able to earn an unexpected income, and he didn't think that Chu Chen was just trying to buy something. This can still be seen with his experience of so many years and his brilliant mind.

Case. Of course he couldn't let Chu Chen go back empty-handed, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get over his face. But I think so. He had a hard time getting something out.

I thought about it for a moment. Erdan scratched his head, and said with some apologies: "Teacher Chu, although I still have a few good things here, they have all been ordered by others, if the things are my own, then I can transfer them to you without saying a word, but this is a business that I have partnered with my friends, so I ......"

Hu Yong frowned when he heard this: "After talking for a long time, Erdan, are you still ready to let us go back empty-handed?" ”

"Brother Yong. Isn't there nothing I can do about what you said? ”

Erdan smiled and hurriedly said, "However, I still have two things that are similar to the silver smoke ball just now, I don't know if you want to take a look?" ”

Chu Chen asked, "Is it also that kind of cleaned gold and silverware?" ”

Erdan smiled: "Almost." ”

Since he knew that there was something wrong with Erdan's things, and it was something like a silver smoke ball, Chu Chen immediately lost interest in his heart, and just as he was about to open his mouth to refuse, he thought about it. I feel that even if he doesn't buy it, things can add some experience to him. So, he still asked Erdan to take out the things.

The two things that Erdan said were indeed artifacts worth about the same as the silver smoke ball. Moreover, they are all gold and silver ware from the Tang Dynasty, and the exquisite process of style and craftsmanship is similar to the silver smoked ball just now. Most likely all dug up from a tomb.

Seeing Chu Chen put the things back, Erdan smiled and asked, "Teacher Chu." Do you like these two things? If you like, I can sell it to you cheaper. ”

"This kind of cleaned stuff. I don't like it very much. Don't you have anything better? ”

If it was in the antique market now, Chu Chen would have bought such a thing, but now, he could only refuse. Fortunately, these two things gave him a deeper understanding of the characteristics of gold and silver in the Tang Dynasty, and it was not a waste of time.

"This ......" Erdan looked a little embarrassed, and after half a sound, he remembered something, and said with a smile:

"Teacher Chu, I really don't have any good things to take out, but I have a friend's family and has an ancestral item that I want to sell, I wonder if you are interested in going and seeing it?"

Chu Chen asked, "What is it?" ”

Erdan replied: "It seems to be a lamp, it is said that it has been passed down for hundreds of years, and it is still very strong, and it is said that it is made of some very valuable materials." And the lamp is still very tall, estimated to be one meter five or six, just because it is too big, I can't take it, otherwise I wouldn't let you run. ”

Chu Chen immediately became interested when he heard this, in ancient times, ordinary people could not afford to use such a big lamp, if the material was a little better, it would be used by the emperor's relatives and relatives.

He hurriedly asked, "I don't know where your friend lives?" ”

Erdan said: "It's about ten or twenty minutes by bicycle, but Mr. Chu, there is one thing I have to tell you clearly, the price my friend asked for is not cheap." ”

Chu Chen smiled and waved his hand: "Don't worry about this, as long as the price is reasonable, I will definitely buy it." ”

Erdan smiled and nodded, but he was a little dissatisfied with Chu Chen's statement in his heart. I think if Chu Chen had money, why didn't he buy a single thing just now? What a big deal now!

However, whether Chu Chen can buy his friend's things or not has nothing to do with him, anyway, he just has Chu Chen a favor, as for the result, it has nothing to do with him.

Erdan asked with a smile, "Then when are we leaving?" ”

Chu Chen said: "It's almost noon now, let's go after dinner." ”

"Okay." Erdan nodded.

"Then we'll go over first, and we'll be in touch later......"

After speaking, Chu Chen left his mobile phone number to Erdan, and then took his leave.

Coming out of Erdan's house, Wu Ke couldn't wait to ask: "Achen, tell me quickly, what's wrong with those two pieces of porcelain just now?" ”

Chu Chen smiled: "Actually, those two pieces of porcelain are indeed quite collectible, but first of all, they broke the wrong generation, and the two pieces of porcelain are actually artifacts of the Jin Dynasty......

As he spoke, he explained the specific characteristics of the two pieces of porcelain.

Wu Ke said with a smile: "So that's the case, the things of the Jin Dynasty are supposed to be bought by the Northern Song Dynasty, and they won't kill him." ”

Chu Chen smiled and nodded: "In addition to the mistake of breaking the generation, there is actually a problem with those two things, they are both old. ”

"Old? Could it be that both pieces of porcelain are fakes? Hearing Chu Chen say this, Wu Ke was very surprised.

"I just said they were wrong." Chu Chen said with a smile.

"Hehe, yes, but since it's all true, why do you want to be old?" Wu Ke obviously didn't understand this.

So, Chu Chen explained the reason to Wu Ke.

Wu Ke said clearly: "So that's the case, but those two things seem to be quite natural to me, they don't look like they are artificially old, and the craftsmanship is inevitably too high." ”

Chu Chen said: "The other party's craftsmanship in making old is indeed very high, but this unearthed porcelain is old, it is easy to say, it is difficult to say, if there is no corresponding tool, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice......

Generally speaking, there are two major steps in the aging of unearthed porcelain.

First of all, there are thorns on the ring foot of unearthed porcelain, not smooth, handle, collectors usually use gauze paper, grinding wheel to polish and polish, because the material of sandpaper is mainly emery, the traces of grinding out are too obvious, not to mention unnatural, and even accidentally cause glaze scratches.

What to do? Some foreign experts have found suitable materials after experiments, and these polishing circles are not any strange materials that are difficult to find, but low-quality jade, agate, and minerals such as rain flower stone that are common in our collections.

If you want to polish the thorns on the ring foot of porcelain, choose the best polishing material according to the hardness of the porcelain carcass. The so-called best grinding material usually refers to the hardness of the grinding material is slightly lower than the hardness of the porcelain fetus.

Hearing Chu Chen say this, Wu Ke raised his hand and interrupted: "Ah Chen, if the hardness of the stone is lower than the hardness of the ring-foot tire, can it still be polished?" ”

Chu Chen explained with a smile: "I'll give you a simple example, it's like a rocky polished whetstone, the knife can cut into the whetstone, but the whetstone can sharpen the blade out. You should know the principle of this, and the same principle is used to polish the thorns. ”

Wu Ke nodded, indicating that he understood.

The surface of the whetstone is not smooth, but rather tough dots that are connected together by guò soft tissues. The reason why the knife can be sharpened is actually to use the dense tough points on the whetstone to cut off the tough steel and make it thinner. As for pouring water on the knife sharpening, the main thing is to cool down and wash away the iron filings and stone slurry.

Chu Chen continued: "Specifically, in terms of selection, Ming and Qing dynasty porcelain generally according to the hardness of the fetus, choose jade powder die-cast jade to polish, some circle feet brush the sealing glaze, to use the jade powder harder point of agate to polish, the ancient porcelain is softer than the best choice of Xiuyu to polish, or seal stone to polish......"

Speaking of this, everyone walked to the door of Hu Yong's house, at this time, the meal was ready, Hu Yong's parents and brother and sister-in-law were beckoning the villagers who were helping to sit down, and when they saw Chu Chen and them coming back, they hurriedly invited them to take a seat.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Chu Chen continued to talk about what happened just now.

The thorns on the feet of the unearthed porcelain were trimmed and polished, but the first step of the old was to make the unearthed porcelain a heirloom porcelain, and to make the porcelain have two other important features of the heirloom porcelain.

First, the surface of the porcelain has thousands of traces of friction, that is, cow hair patterns, which is an important feature of the old ware. The second characteristic is that due to long-term oxidation of the heirloom porcelain, the surface of the porcelain has formed a slurry due to the wiping of a rag over the years.

If you want to change from unearthed porcelain to heirloom porcelain, these two characteristics must be indispensable, otherwise they will be recognized by experts in minutes. Therefore, driven by interests, foreign experts racked their brains and worked out corresponding solutions. (To be continued......)
