Chu Chen continued: "Actually, if it is a genuine unearthed porcelain, a large part of it is easy to remove the rust, and the phenomenon of "soil running into the glaze bubble" is not common, so we usually not only can't use this as the basis for judging the real unearthed ware, but can be used as one of the suspicions of fakes. ”

"Of course, we can't generalize about this, but fake is fake, just take the rust on this bowl and Tuqin as an example, although it is very similar, but if we look closely, we can still see that it is different from natural formation."

Hearing this, Feng Zhengjian hurriedly picked up a magnifying glass and re-observed, and with Chu Chen's reminder, he really found that the rust and soil on it were not the same as those naturally formed.

Feng Zhengjian put down the things in his hand and sighed: "The current forgery method is too powerful, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be blind, it is really impossible to prevent it!" ”

"yes!" Chu Chen sighed: "If it weren't for the fact that the man added rust and soil to the bowl, I would almost think that this bowl is genuine." ”

"It's really Mr. Xiexie Chu this time!" Feng Zhengjian said: "Otherwise, when I sell it, others will find out that it is a fake, then my face will be lost, and if it is known all over the city, then my small shop will not have to do business." ”

"No, no, no!" Chu Chen waved his hand and said, "Let's also learn from each other,......"

"Boss, can you help with the identification?"

Before Chu Chen could finish speaking, he saw a middle-aged couple walking in with a large jar estimated at fifty centimeters.

"Yes." Feng Zhengjian replied: "However, if you only appraise, you have to pay for it, one hundred yuan a piece." ”

The middle-aged man nodded, "Okay." However, can I issue an attestation certificate? ”

Feng Zhengjian said with a smile: "Hehe, I can't issue this appraisal certificate." I can only issue an appraisal opinion, after all, I am not a national authority. ”

The middle-aged man was a little unhappy when he heard this. However, his wife glared at him, so she could only say, "Then appraise the opinion, but you have to give me an estimate of the value." ”

"Yes."

"Then take a look!" As he spoke, the middle-aged man put the jar on the ground.

Feng Zhengjian greeted Chu Chen, and then the two walked to the jar together, carefully examining the characteristics of the jar.

In fact, when the middle-aged couple came in just now, Chu Chen had already seen that the thing in front of him was a barn jar.

The official name of the barn jar is called the soul bottle, also known as the stacking jar, which is a kind of Ming vessel. It evolved from the five-linked jar of the Han Dynasty. It is a unique burial item in the tombs of the Three Kingdoms and Two Jin Dynasty in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River in our country.

The barn jar in front of me is a typical work of Yue kiln green glaze, the body is a long jar, with a bulging belly and a flat bottom, and the green glaze is not as good as the bottom.

The top mouth is placed four small cans along the bottom, fifty-two flying birds are molded between them, the upper front is carved with the eaves of the lofty building, and the downstairs stands a double gate. Nine sitting figurines and dogs, sheep and other beasts are molded on both sides of the gate, and the lower part of the can shoulder is pasted with plastic turtles, fish, and crabs.

The objects on the barn jar often symbolize the social treatment and family status of the deceased during his lifetime, and hope that he can still enjoy it after death in the so-called "underworld". If there are many piles on the soul bottle. It may be a tomb owner of a high social rank or very wealthy. The plastic stacking is relatively simple and rare, it is relatively low, and there are also tubes and bottles that have no physical object.

This barn jar is quite finely made. The stacking is also staggered, and the main and secondary are clear. However, the piles of sculptures on it are just some ordinary things, indicating that although the owner of the tomb has a certain social status. But it's not too high, and the barn tank is still some damaged, so the value of this barn tank is only one or two thousand at most.

After Feng Zhengjian read the things carefully, he asked the middle-aged man: "This gentleman, take the liberty of asking, I don't know how you got this thing?" ”

The middle-aged man said with a smug face: "How else can you get it, ancestral heirloom!" ”

Hearing this, Chu Chen almost laughed out loud, whose ancestor would leave a worthless weapon for the younger generations! Isn't it bad luck?

"Is it really an ancestral heirloom?" Feng Zhengjian asked with a smile.

"Then there can be a fake!" The middle-aged man said with some unhappiness when he heard this: "Let me tell you, my family used to be the imperial guard with a knife in the Tang Dynasty, and this thing was smuggled out of the palace. ”

This story is really outrageous, the whole nonsense, just say that there were imperial guards in the Tang Dynasty? The imperial guards were built at the beginning of the Qing Taizu period, is it okay? However, since the other party paid for it, Feng Zhengjian could only listen carefully, and he had to show a strong interest.

After that, the middle-aged man was in a flurry again, praising this thing as a rare and unparalleled rare object in the world, and it seemed that the jade seal of the country was overshadowed in front of this thing, and the two people who listened to it were ridiculous.

"Boss, my baby is good!" The middle-aged man asked triumphantly.

The middle-aged man's words made Feng Zhengjian not know how to answer, he was really afraid that after the other party knew the truth, he would make any outrageous moves, but there is a way to take people's money and eliminate disasters for others, and he can only tell the facts:

"Sir, you may think your ancestors have left you a good thing, but what can you say? This thing is just a bright vessel. ”

"Mingqi? What is Mingqi? The middle-aged man said with some confusion.

Feng Zhengjian explained: "To put it simply, it is an ancient burial object for the dead. There are many such things unearthed in the south, and if you don't believe it, you can find some magazines and find out. ”

"What! For the dead?! As soon as the words fell, the middle-aged man's wife cried out: "You dead ghost, I said why are you so unlucky recently, it turns out that there is an extra dead man's thing at home!" You still worship it as an ancestor all day long, it's just bad luck! ”

Feng Zhengjian hurriedly persuaded: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, maybe the thing was obtained by the old man by accident in the past, and it is regarded as a treasure?" ”

The sister-in-law jumped to her feet and scolded: "What an old man, this thing is a dead ghost of him, he spent 100,000 yuan to buy it from someone else some time ago, and after buying it back, he still told me what he said "made a fortune", and he also said that the previous owner said that this thing can be easily sold for 500,000 yuan, and it can be more than one million at auction. ”

"I didn't think it was right, since it was such a haode thing, Weishenme's previous owner didn't sell it, and sold it to my family, a dead ghost, no, today I forced him to come over to identify it, I didn't expect this thing to be a dead man's thing, it's really unlucky!"

"This ......" Feng Zhengjian said: "Sister-in-law, we are all materialist writers, you don't have to be afraid, we have a lot of Ming utensils in our antique shop, let's just say that the famous Tang Sancai is a Ming vessel, and others are still scrambling to buy it!" ”

Hearing that his woman had goofed the story, the middle-aged man was full of embarrassment, but when he heard Tang Sancai, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately said: "Boss, the person who sold me this jar said that this thing is from the Tang Dynasty, since Tang Sancai is so valuable, this thing should not be bad!" ”

"This thing is not from the Tang Dynasty." Feng Zhengjian shook his head and said: "This is not the style of the Tang Dynasty, this is a blue-glazed barn jar of the Western Jin Dynasty and Yue kiln. ”

"When was the Western Jin Dynasty?" The middle-aged man asked.

Feng Zhengjian explained: "The Western Jin Dynasty was 300 years earlier than the Tang Dynasty. ”

"Ahh When the middle-aged couple heard this, their faces were happy: "That means that this thing is more valuable than that of the Tang Dynasty?" "In their hearts, they think that what has been going on for a long time must be more valuable.

Feng Zhengjian said: "It's not like this, whether the antique is worth it or not, but also depends on its artistic value and rarity, let's say that the Neolithic painted pottery, from our current long enough, the general painted pottery is only a few hundred thousands." ”

The couple couldn't help but look at each other when they heard this, and the middle-aged man asked nervously, "Then how much can this thing be worth?" ”

Feng Zhengjian gestured and said, "It's worth one or two thousand, after all, this is not a particularly high-level barn tank, plus there are injuries on the body, there won't be too many people who buy it." ”

"What! One or two thousand? The middle-aged woman screamed.

"This ...... Boss, you're not kidding? The middle-aged man's voice trembled a little.

Feng Zhengjian smiled bitterly: "Both, I can understand your feelings, but after all, if I am still in business, I will never joke about this kind of thing, I don't believe that you can take this thing to other places to ask, if what I said is not right, you can come to me to settle accounts." ”

"Wow! ......" Hearing this, the middle-aged woman suddenly cried out and scolded: "You lack virtue! I only watched a few treasure appreciation shows, and I didn't understand anything, so I thought about making money by relying on antiques, but as a result, I lost 100,000 yuan in vain! That's 100,000! That's it for you! I can't live this day, let's get a divorce! After saying that, she shook her hand and ran out of the door.

"Hey! ......" The middle-aged man raised his hand, just ran to the door, and thought that he hadn't taken his things yet, so he turned around and hurriedly said to Feng Zhengjian: "Boss, I don't know if you can accept this thing?" ”

"I'm really sorry, I don't accept this thing!" Feng Zhengjian shook his hand, if it was other porcelain, it didn't matter if he received it, he would definitely not accept it if it was worthless like this and no one bought it.

So the middle-aged man directly took out a hundred yuan, stuffed it into Feng Zhengjian's hand, picked up the jar and chased it out in the direction where his wife ran, shouting loudly as he ran. (To be continued......)
