Chapter 235: Ghost Worker
Shen Yuncheng squinted his eyes, continued to smoke his cigar, and said, "Let's start."
Chongning answered and walked to the long table.
This long table is full of antiques of all sizes, about twenty pieces.
There are really all kinds of things at the bed fair, and everything is more complicated than street stalls and ghost markets.
After this period of experience, Chongning's treasure appreciation level has also improved by leaps and bounds.
He thought that he would not use his hands for the time being, and rely on his own ability to identify it.
At the end of the day, use spiritual power to fill in the gaps.
Only in this way can you gain your own treasure appreciation skills, and not rely too much on the golden hand.
Chongning looked at the long table and identified the antiques on it in turn.
Porcelain, ancient jade, old wood, bronze mirrors, jade belt hooks, stone axes and all kinds of things, you name it.
With his eyesight and careful screening, he quickly carefully selected more than a dozen items from more than thirty things.
This genuine rate is still extremely impressive.
In the antique market, there are basically ten things and nine fakes. It's good to have two or three genuine items on a stall.
The antiques on this long table actually picked out half of the genuine ones, and there are also a few treasures, which is really remarkable.
Chongning was still very cautious, he used his golden hand to sweep the remaining objects to see if there was anything missing.
Sure enough, there was no change in the golden hand, and those things were fakes.
Shen Yuncheng leaned on the sofa and looked at this side with interest, the corners of his mouth raised, as if he was smiling.
"Teacher, I'm here!"
At this moment, a young man with yellow hair strode in.
Shen Yuncheng raised his hand to signal quiet.
The beautiful woman whispered a few words in the young man's ear, his face was stunned, and he thought that Chongning and the others were ordinary individual customers.
When he heard that he was identifying antiques, he immediately looked at them with curiosity.
At this time, in front of the long table, Chongning picked out a total of fourteen pieces.
In the gap just now, he secretly glanced at it with his golden hand.
All kinds of spiritual power converged.
After some identification, he was very sure that all the genuine products were selected!
"Elder Shen, I've picked it out."
The young man's gaze swept down the long table, very disdainful, "But so, it seems that Mr. Wu also has a time to look at people."
The man's attitude was arrogant and his expression was pompous.
Xuan Zhen next to him was suddenly unhappy and said, "What do you mean!"
The young man's eyes widened, and he pointed to the antique on the table, and said, "I say, this kid's eyesight is not good. The real thing is right in front of you, but you can't see it!"
Xuan Zhen was short-tempered, and he was about to step forward to theorize, but Chongning hurriedly grabbed him.
Shen Yuncheng coughed lightly and said, "Chu Ze, don't be rude. This is my apprentice, who is used to being arrogant and indulgent, and everyone laughs."
Chongning still had something to ask for, so he didn't care, and said with a smile, "It's okay, it's okay. Brother Chu Ze said that there was a mistake, and I hope to correct it."
Chu Ze grinned, picked up a hollow ball on the table, and said, "This ghost ball was collected by me from the front line, can it be fake?"
This ball is extremely exquisite, hollow and carved, exquisitely clear, and it is indeed a ghost ball.
The ghost ball is also called the concentric ball, and the ivory carving set ball is generally carved from ivory.
Ghost work, refers to the meaning of ghostly workmanship, the production is quite complex, the craftsmanship is extremely high.
Set of balls in the ball, hollowed out layer by layer, each layer is the same thickness, the ball is carved with exquisite pattern flower holes, and the layers can be rotated.
In ancient times, everyone was beautiful, with a golden hairpin and silver hairpin from the hole to pluck it, the size of the balls inside, will be round and moving, exquisite.
In the Song Dynasty, there were only three layers, but in the Qing Dynasty, it could do more than 20 layers!
Now, it has reached more than 60 floors.
The palm-sized ball can make more than 60 layers of independent space.
It can be said that it is the pinnacle of ivory carving.
However, there has been a total ban on ivory in the country.
The current ghost balls are all carved from mammoth teeth.
Chongning said, "What did you collect it on?"
Chu Ze snorted coldly and said, "The ghost ball in the Qing Jiaqing period, the hard goods that opened the door wide, do you understand?"
Chongning took it and looked at it again.
The pattern of this ghost ball is very fine, and there are classic patterns such as fishing and ploughing, Meng's mother moving three times, and lying on the ice for carp.
Counting them carefully, there are thirteen floors inside.
In terms of color, it is also slightly yellowish and has an ivory feeling.
Overall, it's a bit of a big open.
At that time, Chongning also delayed some efforts on this object.
In the end, it was only with his golden hand that he was sure that it was a modern imitation.
Chu Ze was aggressive and said, "You told me, where is this fake?"
This ghost ball is the first time he has gone to the countryside alone to receive goods, and there can be no mistakes.
Besides, he has invested a lot of money in this order, and if he collects it wrongly, he will lose all his money!
Therefore, when Chu Ze saw that Chongning didn't choose this one, he immediately jumped up and down, in fact, his heart was panicked.
Chongning took the ghost ball and said, "This ball is very finely made, but the weight is wrong. The outer layers are ivory, and the inner core is mammoth."
Chu Ze smiled and said, "Are you mistaken? Tell me, how do you put the mammoth fangs in it?" Chinese Net
Xuan Zhen's eyes lit up, "Glue?"
Chongning replied and said, "Yes, the outer ivory, and the mammoth tusks inside, are glued together."
Chu Ze laughed angrily, "Nonsense, I'm not blind!" There's glue, I can't see it?"
Chongning said: "There is a special glue that is made by powdering ivory and ceramics and mixing it, which is called ivory glue. This glue, applied to the ivory carving, can not see the seams at all."
"I've never heard of it!" Chu Ze still didn't believe it, and looked at Shen Yuncheng, "Teacher, can you show me?"
Half of the things on this table, Shen Yuncheng hadn't seen it, and it was brought by Chu Ze early in the morning.
Shen Yuncheng was on the sofa, straightened up, stretched out his hand and said, "I'll take a look."
Chu Ze hurriedly and respectfully handed over the ghost ball.
Shen Yuncheng touched the surface, then squinted one eye and looked inside, "How much did you get it?"
Chu Ze hurriedly said, "500,000."
The corners of Shen Yuncheng's mouth twitched, "You really dare to accept it."
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the ghost work ball started at least one million at the auction.
Chu Ze received 500,000 yuan, thinking that he could still double it.
"Teacher, I received it from a peasant woman's family, and I said that it was passed down from my ancestors. Her house is still that kind of old house, and I have inquired that it used to be a big family."
Shen Yuncheng was expressionless, looked at the ghost worker, and said, "How many times have I said, don't listen to stories, just look at things."
Chu Ze's heart was bottomless, and his voice was much quieter, "I look at things, and it's quite right."
Shen Yuncheng glanced at the beauty next to him, "Boil a basin of hot water."
