Chapter 645 - Payment of Tuition Fees (continued)

Chu Chen turned the ring cylinder upside down, pointed to the bottom and said: "And your ring cylinder, from the tire quality, it looks like a product of the middle period of Kangxi Minyao, but there is no such phenomenon as "glutinous rice flour" at all, and your ring cylinder is too heavy, this is simply the tire soil refined by the modern mud refining machine, and the tire density made of such tire soil is too large, so it feels heavy." ”

In addition, since it is a folk kiln porcelain in the middle of the Kangxi period, there are two characteristics under the observation of a high-powered magnifying glass, one is that the underglaze bubbles are very small and dense, and the enamel has a milky feeling like milk mixed with water. Second, the texture of blue and white is deep and heavy, such as cloud-like, and no particles. You can see for yourself these two points. ”

As he spoke, he took out a magnifying glass from his pocket and put it in Yuan Hongjian's hand.

Yuan Hongjian took a closer look with a magnifying glass and found that there were indeed no two phenomena that Chu Chen said, which couldn't help but make him a little discouraged, but he still asked without giving up: "Boss Chu, what if my ringing cylinder is fired in the middle or late stage?" ”

Chu Chen said with a smile: "First of all, I just said that the characteristics of this ringing cylinder are the products fired by the folk kiln in the middle of Kangxi, but even if it is not in the middle period, under the observation of a magnifying glass, its characteristics are still different from this ringing cylinder." ”

"First of all, the bubbles are relatively large and dense, the enamel visual perception is relatively clear, the milky feeling is less strong, and it seems that there is obviously less milk mixed in water. Secondly, the color of blue and white material is blue, the gray sense is relatively insignificant, and black brown or yellow-brown markings are common in the depth of color, and the phenomenon of green material particles is rare. Also, when looking at the green material under the mirror, there is a clear sense of being obscured by the glaze......"

Next, Chu Chen put the process characteristics of Kangxi kiln. The characteristics of blue and white hair color and glaze are explained again. Final Words:

"Therefore, your rattling cylinder is not a product of the Kangxi era. Moreover, judging from the characteristics of the blue and white hair pigment layer is very thin, the material does not penetrate deep into the tire, there is no mineral crystallization state, and the cyan color of the same utensil changes smallly, your ring cylinder is simply the chemical material used, plus the kiln fire has not retreated, I am sure that it is a product in recent years. ”

After listening to Chu Chen's reasoned explanation, Yuan Hongjian didn't believe it anymore. also knew that he had been fooled this time, and he said angrily: "No, I have to find that guy to return the goods!" ”

With that, he put the jar in the box and prepared to settle the account with the stall owner.

"Wait! You can't solve the problem even if you go! Chu Chen and Uncle Wu hurriedly stopped Yuan Jianjian.

"Why, can't I settle accounts with him!" Yuan Hongjian said angrily.

"Elder, how are you going to settle accounts with that person, he has said that it is a good thing." Uncle Wu shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Yuan Hongjian was a little puzzled by this.

Uncle Wu explained: "At a glance, you can see what is going on at a glance. ”

"Why didn't he sue me!"

Chu Chen said: "If you go to him." He will definitely say that it is all things that can be seen at a glance, does he still need to sue you? ”

"This ...... This...... I don't care, anyway, he can't sell fakes to deceive people! "Finished. Yuan Hongjian was about to go to the man to settle the score.

"Let's not say if you can find the vendor, let me ask you, what did you buy?" Uncle Wu asked.

"Ringing cylinder!"

"Will it ring, then?"

"Of course it will ring. Why do I buy it if it doesn't ring? ”

"yes, since it's going to ring. Can that be said to be fake? ”

"But it's not Kangxi's thing!"

"At most, it's not a generation, and the cylinder is not fake."

Listen to what Uncle Wu said. Yuan Hongjian was dumbfounded for a moment and said, "Then what should I do?" ”

"I can only pay the tuition!" Uncle Wu said.

At a glance, it is an ambiguous jargon in the antique industry, which can be interpreted as being true at a glance or fake at a glance. So generally speaking, if the seller sues you that the thing is a sight to behold, then you should be careful when buying.

In addition, antiques, you can't say it's fake, a piece of porcelain, a piece of jade, a piece of bronze, as long as they are made of real materials, then it is porcelain, it is jade, it is bronze.

Fakes in antiques, in the jargon, are called "old", that is, "fake antiques" that are made by a certain imitation method, but the thing is real. As for "old imitation, old imitation", it refers to the imitation antiques of the Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China, and "new imitation" refers to modern and contemporary imitations, and "high imitation" is a well-made full-imitation antique.

After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Yuan Hongjian looked frustrated, and he said, "Is there really no way?" That's 20,000 yuan! ”

Although Chu Chen was very sympathetic to him, he didn't have much to do about it, so he comforted him and said: "Elder, the probability of our business is very high, basically there are few who will not be eye-catching, even the old-timers are no exception, let's just say me, in July last year, I also hit the eye a second time, and I lost more than 400,000!" ”

"More than 400,000!" Yuan Hongjian was taken aback, now the house in a better location only needs so much money, and he actually lost so much in the second eye, and Chu Chen's eyesight is much better than him, and he has lost so much money, like him, he can't lose his family!

Thinking of this, Yuan Hongjian couldn't help but retreat in his heart, and he was a little hesitant whether to continue to stay in the antique industry.

Seeing Yuan Hongjian's frowning and contemplative appearance, Chu Chen said with a smile: "Therefore, in the antique industry, the emphasis is on seeing more and buying less, only when you have a grasp in your heart can you start, and there is a premise before this, that is, you must study more and have a certain foundation." ”

Hearing Chu Chen say this, Yuan Hongjian was suddenly a little embarrassed, he also knew that his entry into the antique industry was actually a decision made by his brain, the key was that he still read a few books with color pictures and started to buy things, now that he thinks about it, at his own level, it is strange not to be deceived.

Yuan Hongjian thought about it and felt that he was really a little unwilling to leave this line of work in such a gloomy way, so he asked, "Boss Chu, is it just a matter of reading more books?" ”

"Reading more books is one thing, the key is that you have to practice."

"That's it, but I can't even tell the difference between truth and falsehood, how to practice it!"

"You can visit the museum more often and see the collections inside. In addition, you can also come to my store often to see, my things here, except for those high-quality imitations marked, are basically genuine! ”

Yuan Hongjian was very happy when he heard this, and then said a little embarrassed: "Won't this be too troublesome for you!" ”

"What's the trouble with this, you come often, and you can help us increase our popularity!" Chu Chen said with a smile.

"Then I'll be respectful and obey my fate......"

From then on, Yuan Hongjian basically had to come to the store every day to take a turn, Chu Chen and Uncle Wu, if they were free, they would also drink tea and chat with him. In this way, a few years later, Yuan Hongjian has really become a veteran player with good eyesight, which is something that Chu Chen and Uncle Wu did not expect now, of course, this is a later story, not to mention it for the time being.

Next, the three chatted for a while, during which Yuan Hongjian asked many questions about antiques, and Chu Chen and Uncle Wu also took the trouble to answer them one by one. The relationship between the two sides has also become closer because of this.

In this way, the time of the morning was almost gone, Yuan Hongjian looked at the time, and said to the two with a smile:

"Two, it's noon, let's go have a meal together, I'm in for a treat today!"

"You're welcome, we've already ordered food in the store!" Chu Chen and Uncle Wu hurriedly excused themselves.

Yuan Hongjian hurriedly said: "How is this polite, the two teachers have taught me so many things today, it's nothing for me to invite you to a meal, if you refuse, how can I be embarrassed to come over next time!" Let's go together......"

Seeing that Yuan Hongjian's attitude was very sincere, and he also invited him vigorously, Chu Chen and Uncle Wu could only agree.

The three of them didn't go to any big restaurant, so they found a relatively clean local restaurant and had a meal, which tasted good.

Full of wine and food, just as Yuan Hongjian was about to take out his wallet from his pocket and prepare to settle the bill, his fingertips suddenly touched a hard object, and when he touched it out, he remembered that this was a jade pendant he bought at the stall yesterday.

"Two teachers, this is a piece of jade pendant I bought yesterday, the seller told me that it was from the Ming Dynasty, please take a look!"

After speaking, he was about to hand it over directly, but thinking of the rule that Chu Chen and Uncle Wu said just now, he hurriedly put the jade pendant on the table.

Uncle Wu smiled slightly, and then took the jade pendant in his hand and observed it carefully.

This jade pendant is white jade texture, carved by round carving process, the jade pendant is orchid-shaped as a whole, the orchid pieces are slightly open, lifelike, and the shape is delicate and lovely. At that time, Yuan Hongjian liked the shape of this jade pendant when he saw it, so he spent money to buy it.

After seeing the jade pendant, Uncle Wu put the jade pendant in front of Chu Chen, and then asked, "Old Yuan, how much did you spend on this jade pendant?" ”

"Two thousand eight!"

Uncle Wu nodded: "First of all, I will tell you that this jade pendant is definitely not from the Ming Dynasty, its craftsmanship is wrong, and in addition, some traces on its surface are old." ”

"In other words, this jade pendant is fake?" Yuan Hongjian asked with a disappointed expression.

Uncle Wu shook his head with a smile: "The jade is not fake, but it is made of Khotanese white jade, the quality is okay, and this piece of jade is actually an old imitation jade, the imitation should be in the Republic of China period, and the carving is also good, you just need to play for a while, you can make it increase in value." ”

"Really!"

Yuan Hongjian was quite surprised when he heard such unexpected news, and then hurriedly asked, "Then how much is this jade pendant worth?" ”

Chu Chen smiled: "It's higher than what you bought, three thousand, if you can plate it well, the value of this piece of jade will be even higher!" ”

"Haha!" Yuan Hongjian slapped his hands and laughed a few more times, for him, although two hundred yuan is just a small amount of money, it can be regarded as a leak, and this jade pendant can increase in value in the future, this feeling is really great for him. (To be continued......)
