Chapter 30: Ink Lotus

The old man bowed slightly when he heard this, and then asked, "Then if the identification is wrong, how can we prove it?" ”

"The parties can invite experts who can trust each other to re-evaluate the final result. If it is my mistake, in addition to the compensation mentioned above, I will also pay for the cost of inviting experts.

However, if the results of the appraisal are not my fault, then the other party will be responsible for the cost of inviting experts. Lu Feiming replied seriously.

"Then ask the shopkeeper to help me take a look at this thing in my hand first."

As he spoke, the old man stretched out his left hand and spread out his palm, revealing a small and delicate jade handle. Lu Feiming fixed his eyes, and the gambling stone flashed in his eyes.

Signaling the old man to put the things on the table in the middle of the room, Lu Feiming took his hand and carefully played with it.

The jade piece is not large, about the size of a pigeon's egg, and the carving shows two sheep, one of the ewes standing, and the other lamb kneeling on the ground sucking the milk of the ewe.

This is a moral of 'suckling sheep kneeling mother', which embodies the spirit of filial piety. In ancient times, people often used the words crow feeding back and suckling sheep kneeling to express that they should remember the nurturing grace of their parents.

This piece of jade is not only a good meaning, but also a carver has nothing to say, and the whole picture is portrayed vividly in a few simple strokes.

Not only that, but the whole jade material is a piece of Hetian mutton fat white jade seed material, which is round, greasy and flawless.

After looking at it for a while, Lu Feiming put the jade piece back on the case with some love, and then said to the old man: "Old man, if I am not mistaken, this should be made of Hetian mutton fat white jade seeds, and it is a thing with age."

Specifically, it should be in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, and it is not made by ordinary craftsmen, and nine times out of ten it is the work of the jade carving master of the inner courtyard of the palace. ”

After listening to Lu Feiming's appraisal results, the old man nodded with satisfaction, and the young man behind him looked a little abnormal, as if he didn't expect Lu Feiming to be able to identify it so accurately.

"Yes, the vision is okay. So there is one more thing in the old decay, I hope Boss Lu can help me take a look at it again. ”

Lu Feiming made a gesture of please and said, "Old man, this is not a place to talk, please follow me to the tearoom to talk about tea." ”

As he spoke, Lu Feiming took the lead and led the two of them to the tea room on the other side in addition to the exhibition room.

When he came to the tea room, Lu Feiming motioned for the two to sit down first, boiled the water calmly, and then began to make tea.

The main purpose is nothing more than pretending to be forced, if it is the previous Lu Feiming, you can't just drink it with boiling water, no matter how good or bad it is and how skillful it is.

But the situation is different now, sometimes it is necessary to pretend to be forced, otherwise it looks very low and unclassy.

However, the old man sitting opposite didn't seem to feel anything, and he was in a state of calm and leisure. It wasn't until Lu Feiming was busy with everything and poured tea for the two that the old man slowly spoke:

"Boss Lu, the old man spent a lot of time to bring back a painting, and found a lot of people to help identify it, but the final result was very different.

So I don't know if you can help me take a look, the cost is not a problem, but I want to know an accurate result, I don't know if you can do it? ”

The old man's words were very solemn, and Lu Feiming had to pay attention. It seems to be a great ancient painting and calligraphy. Otherwise, the other party will not value it so much.

After thinking seriously for a moment, Lu Feiming looked at the other party and said with a serious expression

"Old man, you might as well say that I may be a little worse at judging the generation, but I should still have the ability to determine the authenticity. If I'm mistaken, you can always bring someone to smash my shop. ”

"Good!" The old man said a word, and then gave the young man beside him a look, and the young man stood up and walked out, and after a short time, he came back with a long brocade box.

The tea room has a special desk for identification, which is covered with a special felt cloth, which can be used to identify calligraphy and painting, as well as porcelain and the like, which plays an anti-slip role.

took out the scroll in the brocade box, put it on the desk and slowly unfolded it, Lu Fei looked at it intently, because from the very beginning, this painting emitted a dazzling white light when it came into view.

It's just that unlike before, there seems to be a faint trace of blood hidden in this white light.

"This is..."Lu Feiming was a little stunned.

Because the picture scroll shocked him a lot, not to mention that his superpowers have given the answer, there is no doubt about the authenticity. But the author of the painting and the painting itself were the first time he had seen them so closely.

A Ming Dynasty master Xu Wei's splashed ink freehand 'ink lotus picture'. As far as Lu Feiming knows, there are only three such works of Xu Wei, and all of them are in the collection of national museums.

Today, I didn't expect to be able to see such an authentic painting, which is absolutely moving. The only thing that made Lu Feiming a little hesitant and puzzled was why this painting flashed a trace of blood in his eyes.

Could it be that there is something wrong with this painting? Or is there another reason?

Since Lu Feiming had superpowers, he has never had a detailed understanding of his abilities. To put it bluntly, this superpower looks at the authenticity of things, that is to say, the older the thing is, the more authentic it is, the stronger the white light reflected.

On the contrary, if the thing is fake, then the white light will become more and more dim, but this also requires a certain passport, and it is only necessary to cooperate. Fortunately, Lu Feiming's professional level is not bad.

However, this is the second time that there is a different color in the white light, the last time was a gambling fight with Wu Jing during the treasure appraisal conference, and the last two items 'Autumn River Scenery Map' and Yuan Qinghua have a different light.

Now he is encountering the same problem, so Lu Feiming is a little undecided for a while.

Not to mention the rest, there should be no problem that this painting is genuine, but the authenticity is the authenticity, is there a problem in other aspects? The old man had said before, and he had also looked for many people, but the results of the appraisal were different.

In other words, there is controversy about this painting, but what exactly is the problem, Lu Feiming is still uncertain.

After looking at it carefully for a long time, Lu Feiming vaguely guessed the problem. And I remembered a skill that my mentor had told me in college.

It is somewhat similar to the last 'Autumn River Scene', but the last time the painting was uncovered and split in two, and this time the painting is almost the original, but it was also colored and partially taken away when it was framed.

The so-called color matching, in fact, was often used in ancient times, but it is generally used in the process of ancient calligraphy and painting restoration in order to preserve the ink color and restoration degree of the original work.
