Chapter 868: The Fifth Child's Happiness
After getting along with each other for a while, Lao Wu also knew that if he helped Chu Chen buy this Yuan Qinghua, Chu Chen would not treat him badly at that time, and although the reward he got was not as much as he made from his own acquisition, it should not be much worse.
In addition, today Chu Chen fulfilled the promise he made to him and was ready to move his hukou to the capital. At this time, how could he be embarrassed to swallow that piece of Yuan Qinghua alone?
Chu Chen and Zhou Wenping also knew a little about Lao Wu's thoughts, but Lao Wu didn't sell himself to Chu Chen, not to mention that he didn't buy things by himself, even if he did, Chu Chen didn't feel anything wrong.
Of course, even if they know the thoughts of the fifth child, they will not say it tacitly, after all, there are some things that everyone understands in their stomachs, and saying them is easy to cause misunderstandings and cause estrangement.
Since he knew that something might be genuine, how could Chu Chen not pay attention to it? He hurriedly asked, "Fifth brother, where are the things now?" Wouldn't be given the first step by others? ”
"It certainly won't be!" Lao Wu waved his hand: "I only saw the thing yesterday afternoon, and I also paid some deposit to the master, so that he would not let others see it again in the past two days." Now as long as my friend raises the money, I can ......"
Before the fifth child could say anything back, Zhou Wenping next to him interrupted: "Wait, your friend raised funds?" What's going on? ”
"Oh! I didn't get it into that! ”
Lao Wu explained with a smile: "This piece of Yuan Qinghua is going to be sold, in fact, it is the news that my friend got it, but he usually plays with jade, and the funds are not rich now, so he pulled me over." Help him palm his eyes if the thing is right. Then buy it together. ”
In the world of antiques, it is very normal to buy things together. Chu Chen and Zhou Wenping didn't feel anything wrong when they heard it.
Chu Chen said with a smile: "Fifth brother, it seems that your friend has a good relationship with you, and even such a profitable business thinks about you." ”
"That's it!" Lao Wu laughed and scratched his head: "Although Lao Ren and I have only known each other for half a year, we have talked about it very much, maybe we were confidants in our last life." ”
Hearing this, Chu Chen's face showed a look of surprise, and he hurriedly asked, "Old Five, did you say your friend's surname is Ren?" It's not Sven who looks like it. Got bookish all over? ”
Lao Wu nodded and said, "That's right!" Others still call him a teacher! Why, you know him too? ”
Chu Chen shook his head: "No, I've just heard of this person, and I don't want to know him!" ”
"What's wrong?" Lao Wu and Zhou Wenping were very surprised when they heard Chu Chen say this, could there be something wrong with this person?
Chu Chen said: "Fifth brother, you may not believe it when you say it, this friend of yours is very likely to be a liar!" ”
"Ahh How is this possible! Lao Wu's face looked very shocked. This is also normal, who is stunned to hear that his good friend is a liar, presumably the expression should be similar to the fifth child at this time.
"I also hope that they are not alone......" Speaking of this, Chu Chen told him what happened to Zhuang Shengjing and Du Yile. Briefly repeated: "It's fine if the teacher they said is not your friend, but if it's the same person, you should be careful." It's even possible that this time it was a scam! ”
After listening to Chu Chen's story, the fifth child didn't believe it anymore. also knows that his friend is probably the teacher Ren in the mouths of Zhuang Shengjing and Du Yile. This made him feel unacceptable for a while.
Zhou Wenping patted Lao Wu's shoulder, comforted Lao Wu a few words, and then asked, "Lao Wu, how much is that Yuan Qinghua?" ”
After all, he used to be a peddler in a practice stall, and the scam in the antique shop, Lao Wu also knew a lot, but this time he was met by himself, so he couldn't accept it for a while, but he quickly adjusted his feelings, and replied: "I estimated that thing at almost more than 3 million, and we were still 600,000 at that time, but he didn't have any money, so he only had 200,000 shares." ”
If he didn't feel that he had been deceived before, then he still felt that his friend was just because he had no money, so he deliberately let him benefit, but now that he knows that his friend is a liar, and then he thinks about it, he feels that his friend is doing this, obviously digging a pit for him to jump, otherwise if it is him, 600,000 will become more than 3 million in a blink of an eye, such a good thing, even if he goes to borrow money, he will buy things.
Of course, Chu Chen and Zhou Wenping also noticed the trickiness in it, but they didn't see the real thing, and they didn't know whether the thing was real or fake, but judging from the current situation, it was more likely to be fake.
So, Chu Chen asked, "Fifth brother, can you describe to me the specific characteristics of that Yuan blue and white jar?" ”
"Okay!"
Lao Wu nodded: "That jar has a straight mouth, a bulging belly, and a circled foot." The shape is firm and heavy, the tire quality is delicate, and the glaze color is warm. The body is composed of five layers of circle and belt ornamentation, the shoulder is painted with a chrysanthemum pattern, the lotus pattern on the foot and the peony pattern on the abdomen are separated by a narrow curly grass pattern, and the petals and leaves of the flower are secretly engraved. The overall layout is sparse and atmospheric, sparse and dense, which is very in line with the painting ...... of Yuan Qinghua"
Lao Wu gave a detailed description of the Yuan blue and white according to his memory, but just as he was carefully describing the yellow clothes at the mouth of the jar and the flint red at the bottom, Chu Chen suddenly interrupted him and asked, "Fifth brother, according to your description, do you think that the flint red's hair color distance is relatively short and has no momentum?" ”
Lao Wu carefully recalled for a moment and said: "When you say this, it really seems to be like this, isn't this flint red wrong?" ”
Chu Chen replied: "Yes, if it is really like what you said, I suspect that this flint red is made in modern times." ”
"Isn't it, now flintstone red can be made so realistically?" Lao Wu and Zhou Wenping both thought it was incredible.
Chu Chen said with a smile: "Now that science and technology are so developed, especially the research on flint red is getting deeper and deeper, and the methods of making zuò flint red are also varied, and some of them can indeed be imitated. ”
"For example, the counterfeiter buys antique white porcelain fetus, because some antique white porcelain fetuses are not burned fake flint red, after the glaze imitation painted colorful and pastel porcelain, with painted porcelain pigment fan red in the tire glaze junction painted a circle, and then with fine sponge to pat it into a transition layer, after the barbecue of the red stove, the imitation of fake flint red has a more ideal end phenomenon."
"However, although the flint red made by this method is more realistic, the color is still different from the real product, and the more advanced counterfeiting method is the one you see, but the flint red made by this method is quite expensive, and it is generally only used to burn high-grade antique porcelain."
"How?" Lao Wu hurriedly asked.
Chu Chen explained: "Because to make this kind of flint red, you have to go to a certain place to spend a high cost to buy porcelain clay, and the billet made of this porcelain clay can be fired in the kiln before the billet is dried, and you can indeed get real flint red when you leave the kiln." ”
"However, the disadvantage is that the hair color distance is short, there is no momentum, and it can only be similar to the old first-line red. Even so, it is already very deceptive to the eye, and even some experts may not be able to see it. However, the cost of purchasing porcelain clay increases, so this method is generally used to make high-grade antique porcelain. ”
The old red phenomenon is caused by the fact that the moisture in the billet is basically dry, and in the process of heating up in the kiln, due to the lack of sufficient water vapor to evaporate, the iron molecules only slowly overflow and are caused, which looks very similar to flint red.
After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Lao Wu and Zhou Wenping both shook their heads and smiled bitterly, the counterfeiting methods in the antique world are simply endless, maybe one day someone will study the formula of Macang soil, at that time, if even the formula of Su Ma Liqing has been studied, then the fired Yuan and Ming porcelain, it is estimated that even experts can't distinguish it.
Of course, if that time really comes, the price of porcelain in the Yuan and Ming dynasties is estimated to be affected by Yan zhòng, just as the fakes made by Zhang Huohong brought many troubles to the antique world.
At this time, Zhou Wenping opened his mouth and asked: "Boss, is there no other way except for clues such as short hair color distance and no momentum?" ”
The reason why he asked this is that he feels that these two points are really a bit abstract, and he may not be able to see that as the shopkeeper of the antique shop, he can now add some new experience all the time, otherwise one day he will be blinded and laughed at, and it may make the antique shop suffer losses, which is not the situation he wants.
Chu Chen said: "There is indeed another way, to identify this imitation flint red, the main thing is to carefully examine the tire color of things, because the mineral composition contained in porcelain clay in various places is quite different, and the tire color after firing porcelain is also different." Especially the porcelain of the Yuan and Ming dynasties, the difference is still relatively large. ”
Hearing this, Zhou Wenping nodded again and again, while the fifth child thought about it, and after a while, he slapped his thigh vigorously and said, "That's right!" I said that the tire color always looks a little paradoxical, so that's what happened! However, even if it is fake, the level of the Yuan blue and white is very high, and if there is no boss like you, it is estimated that it is difficult to see. ”
Chu Chen smiled, and when he was about to speak, Lao Wu's mobile phone suddenly rang, he took out his mobile phone and looked at it, and his face immediately changed slightly.
Seeing this, Chu Chen asked, "What, is it your friend surnamed Ren?" ”
"Yes!" At this time, Lao Wu's face was not very good, he nodded, and was about to hang up the phone.
"Don't hang up!" Chu Chen hurriedly stopped and said, "You listen to what he means first, it's best to agree to his request first." ”
Lao Wu immediately understood what Chu Chen meant, and then connected the phone.
"Lao Ren, can we go!" When Lao Wu spoke, his tone was deliberately a little excited.
"Uh...... This one...... Old Five! I'm really sorry! I borrowed it from my relatives and friends, and I made up 150,000 yuan, you see......" A voice came from the phone. (To be continued......)
