Since he knew that it was Zhang Huoni's work, Chu Chen definitely couldn't let go of this clue, so he turned his head and asked Du Houdao: "Old Du, I don't know if you would like to take this flat bottle for testing?" ”

Du Hou didn't think about it, so he said with a stern face: "Detection!" Be sure to test! I think that although my eyesight is not very good, but it is better than ordinary players, I can't see that these are fakes, let alone them, if we don't eradicate this kind of people sooner, when the fakes are flooded, it will inevitably cause panic in our antique collecting community, and then everyone in the industry will not be able to be alone. ”

Hearing Du Hou say this, Chu Chen and Uncle Wu were happy for Du Hou's decision, but they couldn't help but show a worried look on their faces, now it has been a long time since they discovered Zhang Huoni's heir, but there is no clue at all, you must know that one more day, there is a little more possibility of what Du Hou said just now happening.

However, the matter of the investigation is not something they can interfere in, and Chu Chen feels a little powerless when he thinks about it.

Fortunately, there is another clue now, if the flat bottle in front of him is really made by Zhang Huoni's successor, then the middle-aged man Du Hou said is likely to have had or indirectly had contact with "Zhang Huoni", maybe the mastermind can be found by then.

Thinking of this, Chu Chen hurriedly said, "Elder Du, let's go test now!" ”

"Xiao Chu, you're in too much of a hurry!" Du Hou smiled and said: "It's almost four o'clock now, and the door of the testing institution will be closed, so let's wait until tomorrow!" ”

Chu Chen scratched his head a little embarrassed when he heard this, nodded and said, "Okay." Then we'll go back tomorrow! ”

"Hey!" Du Hou looked at the three pieces of porcelain on the table and couldn't help but sigh. He said a little gloomily: "Now that I think about it, that middle-aged man walked into my friend's antique shop. This scam began, those porcelain pieces were just bait in a trap, and I was lucky enough to jump into it by myself, what a fool! ”

"And when I saw the middle-aged man's wife, I thought it was very strange, the woman was too young, and she didn't match the middle-aged man at all from the outside, and when the two quarreled, the woman mentioned that because of the middle-aged man's tomb robbery, she couldn't even see the child often, I also felt that her expression was a little fake."

"But I was so tired at the time. But I didn't take these two things to heart, if I had thought about it more at that time, maybe I wouldn't have stepped on the "landmine"! ”

Du Hou shook his head, and then said: "Actually, 500,000 is nothing to me, the most important thing is that I pity my three pieces of Yuan Qinghua!" ”

Seeing Du Hou's sad look, Chu Chen could only comfort him, he really couldn't help much with this kind of thing, so he didn't necessarily want him to transfer his Yuan Qinghua to Du Hou. You must know that he also likes to collect ceramics, but he is reluctant to transfer his precious Yuan blue and white to others.

At this time, Uncle Wu suddenly asked, "By the way, Old Du." Have you ever told your friend who owns an antique shop about the Tufuzi you heard about? ”

When Du Hou heard Uncle Wu's question, he was a little unclear at first. But in an instant, he reacted, and said with a surprised face: "You mean to say." My friend was involved in this? ”

At this point, he pondered. After a while, he exhaled a long breath and said with some indignation:

"As soon as you say this, I remembered it, I did talk to him about that matter, the key is that he is also very good at porcelain, I just glanced at it, and I felt that those porcelain pieces were wrong, and the things were placed directly in front of him, how could he not see that it was a good product?"

"And usually, even if it is a porcelain piece, he will take a good look at it before making a decision, how can he just wave his hand and let the man go! It seems that he must have been involved in this matter, and maybe he is the mastermind. I think I'm usually not bad for him, he actually did this kind of thing, he really knows people and doesn't know his heart! ”

In the end, Du Hou couldn't help but look up to the sky and sighed.

Chu Chen hurriedly persuaded: "Old Du, things are already like this, even if you are sad, it will not help, in fact, think about it on the bright side, spending 500,000 yuan to see the true face of a friend is actually not a loss, if you are still in the dark now, maybe he will bring you greater losses after a while?" ……”

After listening to Chu Chen's persuasion, Du Hou pondered for a while and said: "Xiao Chu, what you said is indeed reasonable, I originally planned to go to the door to scold him, but now I don't need to think about it, it's really not worth it to be angry with this kind of person, if you get angry and break your body, it will really outweigh the loss!" ”

Chu Chen smiled slightly and said: "There is really no need to be angry with this kind of person, don't forget, he is very likely to have dealings with "Zhang Huoni", maybe he will be in trouble after a while. ”

"Haha! Yeah! Hearing Chu Chen say this, Du Hou stroked his palms and laughed, and then said: "Xiao Chu, you should continue to choose my collection, you see that I lost three pieces of blue and white porcelain today, and I can only get some comfort from your fair cup, you can pity my old man!" ”

"Okay!"

Originally, if it weren't for Du Hou's generosity, he would have already exchanged the fair cup for Du Hou, so Chu Chen agreed with a smile without a trace of hesitation. ……

Because there are still many collections that have not been appreciated, considering the relationship of time, next, Chu Chen just browsed the collections roughly, and only when he saw what he liked did he stop and observe carefully.

In this way, after looking at three or four hundred collections, Chu Chen finally found a collection that he was very satisfied with, a brush holder for landscape figures in the Qianlong period.

This pen holder is carefully carved from a piece of jasper, and it is not small, both in length and in diameter, exceeding 23 centimeters.

The color of jasper is spinach green, impermeable under the light, there are naturally formed stripes inside, there are black spots inside, the essence is introverted, hold it in your hand for a while, you will feel that there is an oily texture, which is the basic characteristics of the best Hetian jasper.

The jasper pen holder in the Qianlong Dynasty is mostly based on the scenery of Gao Shi's characters, and the same is true for this pen holder.

The outer wall of the pen holder adopts the technique of high relief, and you can see the distant peaks above the outer wall, high into the clouds. A stone path winds down, and near it is a pine boulder and a mountain stream wooden bridge. A woodcutter on a wooden bridge is moving forward with a negative salary. Bypassing the mouth of the mountain, under the shade of the trees is a flat land, and the five woodcutters are unloading their burdens and resting.

One of the woodcutters may have told an interesting story between drinking water, which immediately made everyone laugh and laugh, and the four of them either smiled reservedly, or looked up to the sky and laughed, some were so happy that they beat their fists, and some laughed so much that they simply lay on the ground. And the woodcutter, who was washing his feet far away by the stream, did not understand the excitement here, and seemed to be listening attentively.

It should be said that before the Qing Dynasty, large pieces of jade produced in Hotan were still very scarce, so it was difficult to see large objects. Twenty-five years after Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty, with the subsidence of the war in the frontier, the jade material from Hotan for the royal family increased sharply, and it was continuously transported from the Silk Road to the imperial palace, providing rich raw materials for the production of large jade ornaments.

Emperor Qianlong is the most interested in playing jade, appreciating jade and owning jade in the history of our country, under his promotion, from the middle of the Qianlong period, both the court and the people's demand for jade and the level of making zuò have reached an unprecedented grand occasion, and the pen holder in front of him is a fine product that came into being at that time.

This pen holder is not only huge in size, but also the carver with extremely superb skills, with high relief techniques to depict the joy of each woodcutter's instant burst of joy vividly and vividly, vivid, can be said to be similar to the bamboo carving, ivory carving, wood carving of the same period, people can not help but shoot the case after seeing.

If you want to say that this jasper pen holder, if you just talk about its value, it will definitely not be as good as Chu Chen's fair cup, but then again, since Du Hou was able to express his generosity just now, then he should repay the favor, so when he saw this pen holder, he immediately made up his mind to choose it.

It's not too early to see the time, so Chu Chen decided on the utensils to be exchanged, and he was about to go and talk to Du Hou, but at this moment, when he turned his head and was about to call Uncle Wu, he happened to see a blue and white bowl, and this blue and white bowl gave him a rather strange feeling.

Chu Chen walked up to the blue and white bowl with some curiosity, and then took it in his hand again.

This is a diameter of 145 centimeters of the mouth bowl, arc belly, circle foot, carcass thick, bowl inner mouth along the edge of the painting a week of chrysanthemum pattern, the bowl center painted lotus pond waterfowl, the outer wall of the bowl theme pattern for pine, bamboo and plum, below is the auxiliary ornamentation, respectively, the grass pattern and the variant lotus petal pattern.

To say that the painting of this bowl is still quite exquisite, very much the artistic style of the craftsmen of the Mengyuan period, but the hair color of this blue and white is black in the blue, which is completely different from the Yuan blue and white.

And the glaze of this bowl also looks blue-white, and there is a rough feeling to the touch, which is not at all like Yuan Qinghua, which has a glutinous rice feeling.

Seeing now, Chu Chen felt a little strange, this bowl obviously looked like a fake, how could it give him the feeling of an old thing, it was really strange. So he turned the bowl over again, and looked at its fetal foot carefully, and this time he found a problem, the fetus actually looked old!

Moreover, Chu Chen also found a very small and not very obvious, strange transparent substance at the bottom of the bowl, and more importantly, he scraped the layer of material with his hand and actually fell off, which suddenly made him feel a little embarrassed.

But immediately he was very surprised to find that the place of the transparent substance just now actually revealed a porcelain fetus, and it looked like a real Yuan blue and white porcelain fetus, which made him strange, and immediately had an idea. (To be continued......)
