Chapter Fifty-Eight: Jade Cicada
After Chu Chen put down Tang Sancai without moving, everyone else also watched it one by one, and it could be seen from their eyes that they appreciated this Tang Sancai.
Seeing this, Ma An said with a smile on his face: "How about it, it's okay to be hungry, this is what Grandpa Hungry dug out of the ground at the end of the Qing Dynasty, it must be an old thing." ”
When Chu Chen heard him say this, he just smiled faintly, in the antique industry, you can believe anything, but don't believe in stories, if you want to talk about stories in antiques, even he can make up a lot of them himself. He saw Chu Yulan's eagerness to try, so he asked her, "What, Xiaolan, do you want to buy it?" ”
"Yes, it's rare to meet such a god-like Tang Sancai horse, I want to buy it and give it to my father, is there anything wrong with this?" Zuihou Chu Chen Yulan asked a little strangely.
Zhou Wenping was also stunned after hearing this, and then remembered that Chu Chen had also looked at Tang Sancai before, could it be that this is also a fake, this doesn't look like it?!
After Chu Chen smiled, he turned his head to Ma An and said: "Uncle Ma, you said that this Tang Sancai was dug up by your grandfather at the end of the Qing Dynasty, maybe you are mistaken, in my opinion, this Tang Sancai should be a high imitation made during the Republic of China." ”
After Ma An heard this, his face changed, and he said in a very unpleasant tone: "How is it possible, how can such a beautiful thing be fake?" What's more, the old professors said that it was a good thing, so you don't say this because you want to cheat the hungry and then buy it back at a low price, right? I'm hungry and tell you, don't even think about it! ”
When Li Guodong heard him say this about his friend, he immediately became angry, and immediately wanted to step forward to theorize, but was stopped by Zhou Wenping and said softly: "Don't worry, listen to what Xiaochen says, he won't do things that he is not sure of." ”
Chu Chen was not affected by Ma An's words, and still said to her with a smile: "Uncle Ma, don't worry, I won't say much, just take a look at this place." ”
After speaking, Chu Chen put Tang Sancai down sideways, pointed to a place in the horse's mouth, and then used a magnifying glass to show everyone, and that place, not surprisingly, was the same as Chu Chen's eye on Tang Sancai, with the word "fire mud" on it. When everyone saw this, they all looked at each other, looking incredulous, while Ma An was confused.
After everyone saw it, Chu Chen said: "Uncle Ma, you are not in the antique industry, you may not know who the fire clay is, let me tell you, he is a ceramic master in the Republic of China, and he imitates all kinds of precious ceramics, if you don't believe it, you can ask Brother Zhou, if you still don't believe it, you can also go to the antique market to ask." ”
Since Chu Chen said this, Ma An also knew that it should really be the case, but he was still a little difficult to accept, and said with a bitter face: "Xiao Chu, does that mean that this thing is worthless?" I spent 50,000 yuan to buy it, and the man swore that it must be true, and now it's not bloodless? ”
The words came out of his mouth before he realized that something was wrong, but it was too late, so he had to smile awkwardly at everyone. The others were speechless, knowing that you had lied before, but you should not tell it.
Chu Chen thought about it for a while, and then thought of his previous discovery, and said: "Uncle Ma, in fact, I have also suffered losses in his high imitation, but I have lost a lot more than you, but my one was accidentally dropped by me, and now I have the fate to meet another one, considering that this thing still has a certain value, I will buy it for 20,000 yuan, how about it?" ”
After Ma An heard this, he was also overjoyed, and said with a shy face: "Since there is fate, Xiao Chu, can you add more?" ”
When everyone heard him say this, they felt a little contempt in their hearts, but Chu Chen didn't say much, pointed to the horse's tail and said: "Uncle Ma, if this place is not repaired, it must be higher, but if there is a remnant, the value will be discounted, so ......"
"Okay, just do what you say, Xiao Chu." Hearing him say this, Ma An immediately agreed to avoid having too many dreams at night.
After reading the two things like this, if it was like this, Chu Chen and the others felt not very satisfied, after all, they were all items of low value, so Chu Chen said: "Uncle Ma, do you have these two things at home?" To be honest, if it's just these two things, it's really not worth it for us to come from the capital! ”
Ma An smiled bitterly: "I thought these two things were very valuable before I was hungry, but I didn't expect them to be like this, you also know the situation of the hungry family, this is also the fact that the hungry family has finally hidden, in this way, there are still two pieces of jade in the hungry family, if you are not satisfied, then there is no way." ”
After waiting for six or seven minutes, Ma An returned to the hall with a brocade box.
Seeing this, Chu Chen asked a little strangely: "Uncle Ma, didn't you say that there are two pieces, why did you only bring one over?" ”
Ma An smiled, took out a jade cicada from his pocket at random, and replied, "There is another one that is this." ”
Everyone immediately turned their eyes to his hands, except for Chu Chen and Zhou Wenping, they were all very disappointed.
This jade cicada looks like how it has been cleaned up after being unearthed, and many places on the body surface are covered with mud, as if it is stained with soil, and from some bare places, the color of this jade cicada is still red that is not common to people.
This time, it was Zhou Wenping who got started first, and then changed hands to Chu Chen, but looking at his expression, he showed some hesitation.
After Chu Chen took over, he looked at it carefully, this jade cicada was about six centimeters long, flat as a whole, slightly thicker in the center and thinner on both sides. The head and eyes of the jade cicada are convex, and the front and back sides are carved with wide yin lines to carve out the head, chest, wings and tail. The tail and wings of the cicada are inverted conical with sharp ends.
From the point of view of carving techniques, this jade cicada should be the craftsmanship of the Han Eight Knife, and from the perspective of pulp, it should also be a jade cicada of the Han Dynasty. The image of the jade cicada of the Han Dynasty is realistic, although the knife technique is simple, but the performance is rough and powerful, the lines are straight, it can be said that the knife is sharp, so there is a saying of the eight knives of the Han Dynasty, which can be seen from this jade cicada.
Judging from the color, this jade bullet should have been stained with blood, and I don't know what it was for after it was unearthed, and it was not treated, so it was like this, and the degree of blood was not visible, if the blood was very full, it was worth a lot of money.
Although he couldn't see the whole picture, which affected the judgment of value, Chu Chen still had abilities to use. It's just that when he used the ability, his heart shook wildly, and he couldn't imagine that the result would be like this. He hurriedly lowered his head and pretended to observe the jade cicada in his hand, but in fact he was hiding the shocked look that might appear on his face.
Finally, after stabilizing his mood, Chu Chen frowned and thought about it, there should be only one kind of abnormal ability appearance, he carefully observed it with a magnifying glass, and he really found some relevant traces.
After making a judgment, what Chu Chen was most concerned about now was how to get this jade cicada, but in an instant, he thought that with Ma An's attitude and the appearance of the jade cicada, he definitely didn't know the true value of this jade cicada, so he settled down, handed the jade cicada to others with some reluctance in his heart, and then said:
"Uncle Ma, what do you say about this jade cicada?"
Although Ma An didn't pay attention to this jade cicada, he would definitely not make a move easily, so he said with a smile: "Xiao Chu, let's talk about the price later, how about you talk about this thing first?" ”
Chu Chen smiled faintly: "This jade cicada, judging from its pulp and workmanship, should be a thing from the Han Dynasty." ”
As soon as Ma An heard that it was from the Han Dynasty, his eyes lit up, although he didn't have much culture, he still knew that the Han Dynasty should be thousands of years ago, but he didn't expect such an inconspicuous thing to have such a long history, then it should be worth a lot of money.
Chu Chen looked at his performance, and smiled secretly in his heart, not knowing what his expression would be when he listened to his next introduction.
In the Han Dynasty, a unique new category of jade appeared, namely sets of funerary jade, and before that, although there were burial jades, the series appeared in the Han Dynasty.
The people of the Han Dynasty paid attention to thick burials, and they believed that the purpose of immortalizing the body could be achieved by burying it with jade, so after death, people should use jade to make the so-called "nine orifice vessel" to cover the holes that fill the body. Among them, the jade placed in the mouth of the deceased is called Yuhan, and the most common jade is the cicada.
"This jade cicada is a cicada, and the red color on the jade cicada is the color formed after the invasion of corpse blood and corpse qi, which is also called blood Qin."
At this time, the jade cicada was in Wen Yuting's hands, and when she heard Chu Chen's introduction, she was so frightened that she almost threw the jade cicada out, and then immediately put the jade cicada on the table, with a disgusting expression on her face.
After Ma An heard this, his face also became extremely ugly, and he hurriedly asked, "Xiao Chu, there will be no problem with this kind of thing at home, right?" ”
Chu Chen was secretly happy in his heart, and after pretending to think for a while, he replied: "There should be no problem, I have been in the antique industry for several years, and I have never heard of this thing being harmful, but I don't know how it is." ”
Ma An heard Chu Chen say this, although he was relieved in his heart, but the more he looked at this jade cicada, the more awkward it became, so he asked Chu Chen with a smile: "Xiao Chu, do you want this thing?" ”
Of course, Chu Chen couldn't wait to get it into his hands immediately, but of course he couldn't be so anxious in reality, so he hesitated for a moment before saying: "This thing looks pretty good, I can also take over, Uncle Ma, you make a price, if it's suitable, I'll buy it." ”
Ma An was very happy when he heard that he could buy it, the more he looked at this thing now, the more unfortunate he felt, maybe his son became what he is now, it was probably because of this thing. However, in line with the ability of goose plucking, he said:
"Xiao Chu, look, since you said that this thing is from the Han Dynasty, it is also thousands of old things, if you want it, 50,000 yuan, how about it?"
