Chapter 861: Bitter Fei Lao
After listening to Dean Sima's explanation, everyone thought that if there was nothing special, a guqin could be preserved for more than 2,600 years, and ordinary people must know that it was unlikely.
Moreover, this is still a guqin that can make the king of Chuzhuang addicted, even if the maker has a master-level level, but if there is no unique material, it should be difficult to make a guqin that can linger in the aftermath!
At this time, Yu Renpeng finally came back to his senses and asked with some dumbfoundedness: "How many people, this guqin, is it really the one that winds around the beam of King Chuzhuang?" β
"You are asking, can we still lie to you?" Dean Sima laughed and said.
"This ......" Although Yu Renpeng knew that everyone should not joke about this matter, he still looked incredulous and said: "But, wasn't Liang Qin smashed by King Chuzhuang?" Could it be that someone else dropped the bag at that time? I do hope that this is the real Liangqin, but this point still has to be suspicious! β
Dean Sima nodded: "On this point, some of our researchers also have doubts, guessing whether this will be an imitation that is also more than 2,600 years ago, although this possibility is not very likely, but it still needs to be ruled out." β
"As for the method of elimination, it is also simple, as long as the guqin is repaired, try its sound quality. Otherwise, the sound quality of the Liangqin is not 'Liangliang' or similar sound quality, even if we believe that it is genuine, the public will not believe our judgment......"
"Yes!" Fei Lao nodded: "Xiao Chu, now let's talk about the restoration of the guqin." β
Chu Chen smiled and said, "Fei Lao, I don't know anything about this business. You can do what you say! β
"Even if you don't understand this, I have to explain it to you!"
Fei Lao said: "First of all, this piano body. Because of the special material, only a certain amount of dehydration is required. The other is the strings. I discussed with several experts and basically settled on a few sets of plans. β
Hearing this, Chu Chen asked with some curiosity: "Fei Lao, didn't you say before that you can use your set of 'ice strings'?" β
Fei Lao said: "Of course, it is good to be able to use it, but in case it does not match, or if it does not achieve satisfactory results, the strings will definitely have to be replaced with other materials." β
Chu Chen said: "I don't have any opinion on this aspect, as long as I can give full play to the sound quality characteristics of this guqin." β
Next. Everyone discussed the restoration of the guqin again, of course, it was all Fei Lao who was talking, and the others were mainly as listeners.
At the end of the discussion, Dean Sima looked at the guqin in front of him again, and sighed secretly, he really hoped to leave the qin in the Forbidden City, but judging from the current situation, Chu Chen would not agree at all. Then you have to settle for the next best thing.
"Boss Chu, can we have a discussion......
Speaking of this, Dean Sima hurriedly added: "Don't worry, I won't talk about acquisitions." β
Chu Chen smiled and said, "Dean Sima." If you have something to say, I'll help you as long as I can. β
The implication is that if he can't help, he will definitely not help.
Dean Sima saw that Chu Chen didn't show any words. was also a little helpless, and said, "That's so." I mean, if there is a chance in the future. Our two families regularly take out some cultural relics for an exchange every year, what do you think? β
"Do you have an idea of an exchange of exhibits?" Chu Chen asked.
"Yes!" Dean Sima nodded.
Chu Chen didn't have to think about it, he knew that this matter would benefit him a lot. You must know that there are many good things in him, and some are still unique, but the Forbidden City is a big business, whether it is the number of cultural relics, or the precious Cheng dΓΉ, it can be said that it is world-class, and he must not be able to compare with him personally, so he will definitely not suffer a loss in the exchange of cultural relics.
Moreover, Chu Chen not only did not suffer, but he also made money, because in this way, it is equivalent to using the fame of the Forbidden City to advertise him, this kind of good thing, he will really become a fool if he doesn't agree.
However, as soon as Chu Chen nodded, Yu Renpeng next to him said: "Dean Sima, this matter is a good thing for both of our families, but I have to say one thing, after the restoration of this Liangliang guqin is completed, it must be announced for the first time in my junior brother's museum." β
Listening to what Yu Renpeng said, Dean Sima couldn't help but be stunned, to be honest, he really thought so before.
At this time, Chu Chen spoke: "Senior brother, I promised before that this guqin was going to make its debut on the day Fei Lao's museum opened. β
Yu Renpeng was slightly stunned, he really didn't expect such a show, but since Chu Chen had already agreed, he didn't have to say anything, but he still felt a pity for it in his heart.
Fei Lao smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Xiao Chu, thank you for remembering this, but it's still what I said before, forget it!" β
Chu Chen heard Fei Lao say this, and knew that he was still worried about Fei Yu's matter, and Fei Lao looked much older than the last time, with a lot of white hair and frowns, and he looked at least five years older.
"Fei Lao, as the old saying goes, you can't overturn a boatload of people with one rod......"
"Xiao Chu, listen to me!"
Before Chu Chen could finish speaking, Fei Lao waved his hand and interrupted: "Xiao Chu, thank you for your kindness, but my museum may not be able to open!" β
"Ahh What's going on? Except for Dean Sima, everyone else at the scene was extremely surprised by the news.
"What else can I do, I was miserable by that unfilial son of my family this time!" In the end, Fei Lao seemed to have lost all his strength, and sat on the sofa with a variety of feelings of disappointment, frustration, and grief on his face.
After being silent for a moment, after waiting for Fei Lao's love to stabilize for a while, Liu Lao opened his mouth and asked, "Old Fei, what the hell is going on!" β
"I'll tell you!"
Seeing Fei Lao's heartbroken appearance, Dean Sima explained to everyone: "Two days ago, didn't Boss Chu investigate that Fei Yu sold a lot of cultural relics to buy villas, Lao Fei heard the news and felt that it was wrong, so he hurriedly called me over and identified all the cultural relics in his vault one by one, and at least one-third of the things turned out to be fakes......
"What?!" Everyone was shocked by this.
Last time, Chu Chen asked Lin Shengfu to help investigate Fei Yu's matter, Lin Shengfu or his friend was very capable, and he didn't have much time to investigate the source of Fei Yu's funds, and called Chu Chen, who was still in Wucheng.
What made Chu Chen feel unexpected and reasonable was that Fei Yu's funds were all exchanged for antiques, and Fei Yu was such a loser who didn't learn or know, and the source of his antiques was self-evident. So he called Liu Lao at that time and asked Liu Lao to relay the news to Fei Lao, but the situation was obviously worse than Chu Chen had expected.
Liu Lao hurriedly asked: "Lao Fei, isn't your vault newly built, and only you know the password and key, right?" How would your son know? β
Fei Lao smiled bitterly: "Isn't there a maid in my family, she has been in my house for several years, because she is very well-behaved, my wife and I treat her as a daughter, and I never thought she would do such a thing!" It's really day and night, and it's hard to imitate the thief! β
Hearing this, everyone understood that Fei Lao treated his family's servants as daughters, and there must have been negligence, so he was exploited by Fei Yu.
And not only that, Chu Chen also had a guess, maybe the villa might be the servant Fei Yu bought for his family, but it was inconvenient for him to ask more about this kind of thing, so as not to reveal Fei Lao's scars again.
However, there was one thing that Liu Lao still couldn't figure out, so he asked again: "Lao Fei, according to your temperament, you should take a look at your collection in a few days, you didn't see that there was something wrong with your collection before?" β
Fei Lao's face was full of bitterness when he heard this: "The point is that they changed either porcelain or jade at the beginning, and it was not until the end that they replaced my two guqins, and they were all able to be imitated in a fake way, and I don't know where those things came from." β
"yes!" Dean Sima nodded again and again: "Those high-quality imitations are really excellent, if you don't look carefully, you can't see that there is something wrong with them." Well, this time, Lao Fei also brought two things over. β
As he spoke, he pointed to the two brocade boxes placed next to him.
As soon as Liu Lao heard this, he came to his senses, even Dean Sima and Fei Lao couldn't see the authenticity, so he really had to take a closer look.
Then, Fei Lao took out the contents of the box, one was a string of Qing Dynasty pearls made of jadeite, and the other was a white glaze engraved four-series pot.
Liu Lao said with a smile: "Let Achen see the jade things, he is the 'jade king' recognized by the jade industry." β
Chu Chen smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Master, don't bury me, in front of your seniors, how dare I use this title!" Besides, the title of this Jade King was also forced to me by others, and I have never admitted it! β
Dean Sima and Fei Lao, who didn't know the inside story, were also quite surprised that Chu Chen was called the 'Jade King', and hurriedly asked curiously what was going on. So, Yu Renpeng told the reason again, and when they heard that Chu Chen was able to defeat the Jade King, they were shocked, and they all didn't know what to say.
After this episode, the atmosphere at the scene was finally not as dull as just now, and then Chu Chen picked up Fei Lao's string of pearls and looked at it.
Chaozhu, a string of beads worn on the court clothes of the Qing Dynasty. The pearl is a kind of ornament of the Qing Dynasty dress, which hangs around the neck and hangs on the chest.
The materials of the pearl include eastern pearl, jadeite, agate, kyanite, coral, etc. A total of 108 pearls, every 27 between the penetration of a large bead, a total of four large beads, called the beads, hanging on the chest called "Buddha head", in the back there is a drooping "back cloud", on both sides of the pearl, there are three strings of small beads, left two right one, each 10 grains, called "remember twist".
