After Huang Shi let the curtain idle to open those lacquer boxes one by one, he saw that the four boxes were filled with exquisite porcelain, two of which were jars, and he picked them up carefully, only to see the words "the auspicious day of the first month of the second year of Ming orthodoxy, the disciple Lin Jin enshrined", and the other only had the words "Ming Chenghua Year System".

There are also two identical blue and white pen holders, both in the shape of a five-peaked mountain. A whole body with heavy blue and white painted mountains, clouds, pavilions, and figures; The other piece is written in blue and white on the front of the "Orthodox New Year" model, and the back is painted with a decoration similar to the skin pattern of bamboo shoots to show that the mountains are stacked, the color of blue and black brown, and the brushwork is heavy.

The other 3 boxes contain a set of rare Buddhist scriptures from the Song Dynasty, two miscellaneous, one is a gilded ring statue of Venerable Boga, and the other is a jade flower cup.

Although Huangshi said that he made up some common sense of cultural relics, but it was only limited to copper coins and treasure money, and he was a layman for these blue and white porcelain, and this time he didn't want to hand over other objects other than Buddhist scriptures and rare books to the old pig, although the old pig was a classmate, but the blue and white porcelain was not clear about the source, and his previous rhetoric could only use the last handful, and he could only hand over part of the copper coins, treasure money, and rare books collected by Zhou Mingrui during this period of time to him, and the other big objects still had to find another channel.

So he hurriedly returned to modern times and called Ning Fan, because in his social relationship circle, the most well-connected person is only this Boss Ning, of course, he and Boss Ning changed a set of rhetoric, saying that he went to the countryside to collect chickens in the past few days, found a few cultural relics in the farmhouse, and spent a lot of money to buy them, hoping to find someone to palm.

Ning Fan was a little strange about this, and asked him if it was possible to accept Gao Fang, but Huang Shi said that he didn't spend much money anyway, so he put his mind at ease and gave him the number of a Professor Sun he met in the club, that Professor Sun taught in a history department of the neighboring Dongda University, and in addition to his own collection, he occasionally appeared in the collection programs of the provincial station and became a judge.

Overnight, Huang Shi bought a train ticket, went to the neighboring city, arrived at night, casually found a high-end hotel to stay, and then called Professor Sun, saying that it was a friend of Boss Ning, and there was an object that he hoped to make his palm, because Professor Sun was not free the next day, so the two set a meal in the hotel's restaurant at noon the day after tomorrow, and exchanged ideas by the way.

Huang Shi had to press the excitement in his heart, and walked around the neighboring market the next day, he was busy day and night for a while, and his mind was tight, and it was really not easy to finally have such a day to have leisure. By the way, he also turned to the antique street in the neighboring city, looked at the price of copper coins, and found that the old pig gave himself a really conscience price, and only left 20% of the profit for himself, while other merchants were cut in half, he found a few, and found that the market was like this, so he had to put away the rare books, and sold all the reserved copper coins and treasure money, and got back 100,000 yuan.

At noon on the third day, Huang Shi came to the box of the hotel restaurant, locked the door, and after observing to confirm that there was no monitoring probe, he took out the orthodox canner from the light door and put it under the wine table.

But now is not the time to study this, he reached in and gently put the lacquer box aside, so as not to accidentally touch it, it would be a tragedy, and then went to open the door and waited for Professor Sun's arrival.

"This is the blue and white peony beast ear", after the two of them were drunk, everyone mentioned the stubble of the cultural relics, Huang Shi first asked the waiter to remove the wine and food on the table, and then carefully brought up the lacquer box hidden under the table.

After Professor Sun opened the lacquer box in Huangshi, he recognized this antique object at a glance, and he carefully took it from Huangshi's hand, "This blue and white peony beast ear honor, originally auctioned in Hong Kong in 1986, you see that the calligraphy on this is the style of the Ming people, the shape is vigorous, the blue color is bright, the peony ornament level is clear, and its modeling, painting and blue and white color are not losing the Xuande style."

Huang Shi pretended to be humble and listened to the lecture.

"You have to know that the bottles and cans that we can see now are painted peacock peony, immortal crane, dragon, phoenix, unicorn, Gao Shi leisure, qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, visiting friends, Lao Tzu preaching, lotus pond mandarin ducks and other patterns, with the cloud-shrouded fairy mountain pavilion picture is more prominent, this one of yours is a peony", Professor Sun pointed to the pattern.

"Professor Sun, how much is this jar worth now?" Professor Sun also knows that most of the collectors in recent years have gone for the appreciation of cultural relics, not to mention the owner of a small antique shop opposite, so he did not say those clichés such as "the value of cultural relics mainly lies in their historical and cultural connotations".

Therefore, Professor Sun thought about it for a while and gave his own answer, "At least 3.8 million."

"That's a lot"! Huang Shi was a little surprised, but in exchange for Professor Sun's disdain, he thought to himself, how could this antique shop not even understand these basic dynamics.

Huang Shi saw Professor Sun turning over and over there, a little in love, as if he was admiring and playing with a beautiful woman, which Huang Shi didn't quite understand, after all, in his eyes, Chinese things were only paid attention to because they were valuable, and as for what he said in the middle, he really couldn't figure it out.

But now he really wants to ask a question, "Professor Sun, this blue and white peony beast ear is brought to our store by a customer, we really want to know if he is genuine, do we still have to do some high-tech identification?"

Professor Sun carefully put the blue and white ware on the table, "There are currently two methods of high-tech you mentioned, one is the thermoluminescence method, which has three disadvantages, for example, it also needs to be sampled, so it must cause damage to this item, this is the first point." Then the second point is that it can't measure the recent age, and you can't do it like the Ming and Qing dynasties. Thirdly, it is possible to make the real thing fake, which has happened to me before."

"There is another kind, devitrification technology, from the technical point of view, the glaze of ancient ceramics, the main component is silica, this is a kind of glass, and it has been found that the homogenizer of silica has been in a substable state, there is a homogenizer to the crystal, we call this process the devitrification of enamel, devitrification technology, also known as enamel devitrification technology, its principle is that under the premise of the same composition and the same temperature, the fired glaze, in natural conditions, the longer the time, the higher the degree of devitrification. The age of the ceramics can be determined by spectroscopy".

"However, if it is different from that element through the change of the structure of the substance, it is much more difficult to crack the devitrification than to crack the elemental analysis. Because its curve of change is a parabola, the closer it is, the greater the change, and the farther the change, the smaller the change. However, the technology of devitrification itself is indeed not very mature, and it needs to be further developed. For what? Because it affects the vitrification of an artifact, it is not only caused by the age, but also the composition of its glaze will also have an impact on its vitrification. So at present, the transparent glaze of Jingdezhen porcelain seems to be relatively good, so it seems that some thicker glazes still need to be further worked", Professor Sun then said about the shortcomings.

"Professor Sun, that means that this method doesn't work for any porcelain, does it?" Huangshi can finally earn his first pot of gold with confidence.
