Chapter 460: Finding Fake Antiques (1)
"Your mobile phone weighs only three or two, how can you weigh two catties?"
"Did you soak in the water?"
In the face of Zhang Yang's torture, Baoyou couldn't answer at all.
He struggled for a long time before he came up with an explanation.
"Teacher, could it be that the weight of ancient times is different from our current definition?"
"Didn't you say before that half a catty and eight taels are the same?"
"Your washing angle is a bit ingenious."
Zhang Yang nodded approvingly.
Not to mention, if you don't have any logic, you may really be fooled by Baoyou's statement.
Weights and measures are indeed different today than they were before.
In the past, a pound was sixteen taels.
But if you calculate it this way, the weight of the mobile phone is 36 taels, but it is actually only 3 taels, which is even worse.
So the fact that weights and measures are different doesn't explain why this scale is so abstract.
However, Zhang Yang did not intend to give Baoyou the ancient weights and measures of science.
There is no need to try to wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep.
What Zhang Yang wants to do is to analyze the problem of this thing from the perspective of antiques.
"But it's a pity, aside from the usability, from the perspective of pure craftsmanship, your thing is still full of flaws."
"First of all, the ceramic scale is very abstract, and everyone knows that porcelain is a very brittle thing, and it is easy to break if it is bumped slightly."
"Then, as long as the scale is knocked down, the scale will be wasted."
"This kind of play, even if it is the Ministry of Internal Affairs, will not be so extravagant."
"And then there's the snake on the scale."
"Of course, Bao Youling said that it was a dragon, even if it was a dragon, why did the eunuchs of the Internal Affairs Office use dragon scales?"
"It's the other way around?"
"The most outrageous thing is that the blue and white tires and glazes on you have nothing to do with the blue and white of the Qing Dynasty, they are completely modern craftsmanship."
"In fact, this kind of thing, from the perspective of blue and white porcelain alone, many people, including Baoyou, can find something wrong."
"But because of the strange shape, I will have more luck in my heart, thinking that this is a unique thing, and it is normal to have a little flaw."
"Often, it's easier to be fooled."
Zhang Yang's mentality towards Baoyou is very tight.
To put it bluntly, it is the psychology of curiosity and the psychology of luck.
[Master, I have realized]
[Blue and white porcelain is still very difficult to make a scale, right? ] 】
[The weirder the thing, the easier it is to be fake]
After listening to Zhang Yang's words, a sigh came from the microphone on Baoyou's side.
It seems to have been spoken to the heart.
"Thank you, Master Zhang."
"You're welcome, collections, you have to pay tuition."
Zhang Yang is still very gentle with this kind of unruly treasure friend.
People just don't understand, and if they don't understand, they won't break the law.
"Okay, the next treasure friend, please prepare."
"Hello Mr. Zhang."
"Although my item can't be auctioned, I still want to use the teacher's platform to show it to friends all over the country."
"Is that okay?"
At the end of the video is a gray-haired old man who looks to be fifty or sixty years old.
However, he speaks very methodically, giving people the feeling of a retired old cadre.
"No problem, it's okay to display, what about your collection?"
"Mine is this treasure."
The old man didn't seem to know how to flip the camera, so he came out with his baby in his hand.
At first glance, it looks a bit like the Tota Heavenly King.
It's just that the tower of the Tota Heavenly King is black, and the tower in the uncle's hand is white.
"Bring this thing closer and I'll take a look."
The front camera on the uncle's side, the pixel is a little too low, and Zhang Yang can only see a rough idea.
One is: this carved is a four-story tower;
The second is: the material of the tower should be Afghan jade, and the main components are calcite and dolomite.
"Uncle, what age is this thing if you look at it?"
"If I look at it, it should be from the Han Dynasty."
"The more famous white jade pagoda in the Han Dynasty."
"Stupa?" Zhang Yang was a little surprised, "Uncle, in the early Eastern Han Dynasty, Buddhism was introduced to our country, and there was no such thing as a pagoda at that time. ”
"When the construction of the pagoda really began, it had to be the time of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, when Emperor Xiao Yan of Liang Wu was in power."
"No, teacher, your statement is wrong."
Uncle retorted very quickly:
"Buddhism has always existed in the Han Dynasty, but when Emperor Wu of Liang was in power, he took all the merits of building pagodas on himself."
"My surname is Liu, and my ancestors are the royal family of the Han Dynasty, so I know the doorway very well."
"Teacher, you believe me, that's right."
[Believe him or believe that I am Qin Shi Huang? 】
[I, Li Shimin, play money! ] 】
[Coincidentally, my surname is also Liu, my ancestor Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty didn't say that]
[I doubt the uncle's mental state a little]
To be honest, Zhang Yang originally thought that the uncle was a national treasure.
But after listening to his serious introduction that he was a descendant of the royal family of the Han Dynasty, his opinion immediately changed.
Uncle may have some mental problems.
No wonder such a white stupa can be imagined by him to be from the Han Dynasty.
Those imitations of the Qing Dynasty on the market know how to make some color, how can the Han Dynasty be so clean?
The National Treasure Gang is not as outrageous as him.
"Uncle, at present, no one has been found in my country, a jade pagoda from the Han Dynasty, so this thing of yours is new in my opinion."
When encountering this kind of treasure friend whose motives are unclear and whose mental state is still doubtful, Zhang Yang's consistent attitude is:
Not beat around the bush.
The treasure connoisseur anchor only focuses on antiques, and nothing else.
"Hehe, teacher, what you said, will a person of my age lie to you?"
"Uncle, of course you can have your own opinions. But it seems to me that this is new. ”
"There are obvious traces of machining on it, which should be carved and polished by power tools."
", this thing has been passed down in my family for hundreds of years, and there was no electricity at that time, how can it ......"
Before the uncle finished speaking, Zhang Yang directly cut off the microphone.
It's so good that I can't hold it back.
"Give the friends in the live broadcast room a little science."
"The jade carved pagoda of the Han Dynasty is 100% fake."
"If you don't think it's true, then take a plane directly to Yanjing Airport, take a taxi directly out of the airport to No. 16 East Chang'an Street, go in and let the director of the museum arrange a display case for you, and you can stand in it with the pagoda on display."
"You will really be welcome at the National Museum."
[Hahahahaha]
[You can really show yourself]
[Understood, go to the National Museum to grab the national treasure now, just say that it was sent by Master Zhang]
After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he looked at the time, and it was almost time to get off work.
He stretched shallowly.
"Come on, the last treasure friend of the day."
"What treasure did you bring?"
After the video was connected, Baoyou put a jade carriage in front of the camera.
Zhang Yang had identified many jade carriages before.
The difference can often be seen in the form.
Because the counterfeiters are uneducated, they don't even know what the structure of the carriage is, and it is seriously out of reality.
But this one is different.
The one who pulled the car directly became a unicorn, and there was a dragon lying on the roof.
It has nothing to do with realism anymore, it's completely an artistic creation.
The reason for the previous appraisal cannot be used.
"Teacher, this thing is my father's treasure."
"He asked me to find someone to help him get an appraisal."
"The old man isn't watching the live broadcast, is he?" Zhang Yang asked.
"No, he went out to do tai chi."
"That's good, it's a healthy lifestyle."
"Did your father tell you about the origin of this thing? Was it bought, or was it an ancestral heirloom? ”
"Ancestral, it has been passed down for hundreds of years, and now you want to pass it on to me."
"If it's a hundred years, it may be a little worse." Zhang Yang analyzed, "The reason is very simple, the material of your thing is very authentic Qinghai jade. ”
"The earliest mining of this kind of jade can only be traced back to the nineties of the last century, so its age cannot exceed forty years."
Zhang Yang smiled at Baoyou and said:
"So I ask you, is the old man watching the live broadcast."
"Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll be embarrassed."
"Forehead......" Baoyou pondered for a moment and asked, "Teacher, is it possible that it is naturally carved from Qinghai jade?" ”
"There's just a lot of jade, didn't you pick it up in the river? Isn't it impossible to rule out this as well? ”
"I know, you want to say seeds, right?"
"Yes, seeds."
"But Qinghai jade has not found seed material at present, otherwise it would not have been discovered until the nineties of the last century."
"You must know that the ancients had a great demand for jade, and if you find jade seeds in a river, someone will immediately search all the places along the river......
Thanks to the blessing of Baoyou of Leek Valley, Zhang Yang's understanding of all kinds of jade is clearer than many experts.
Because treasure friends can always be deceived by all kinds of strange statements.
Among them, the white jade in Qinghai jade, artificially made into a leather shell, and then pretended to be Hetian jade seed material, in this live broadcast room, it can be regarded as the lowest level of scam.
The treasure friends of the fan base all know that Qinghai jade has no seeds.
……
After the live broadcast in the afternoon, Zhang Yang did not leave the company immediately.
Sister Gao recently wanted to organize a company outing, and wanted to find a place for Zhang Yang to hold a meeting to discuss.
For this matter, Xiao Tang, who hasn't been to the company much during this time, came over.
In the event hosted by Sister Gao, of course, good sisters have to give face.
After removing the makeup, Sister Gao asked everyone to wait in the conference room, and she went to get the computer and put the PPT.
"Why weren't you ready just now?" Zhang Yang asked with some dissatisfaction.
"Yes, yes." Xu Jie also agreed.
After Sister Gao entered the house, she glared at Xu Jie fiercely before slowly explaining:
"Shouldn't I consult with a travel agent?"
"I also want to save money for the company."
"Wait a minute." Zhang Yang stretched out his hand to interrupt her, "Aren't we on a spring outing?" ”
"Now that the business of travel agencies is so sluggish, do you also accept the spring outing project?"
"It's a spring outing, but I didn't say it's a spring outing in the sea."
Sister Gao held back a smile and looked at Zhang Yang with an innocent face.
"The spring in the sea has passed, and I can only go to other places to find spring."
"Boss, the four of us are all Linhai locals, from childhood to adulthood, is there any place around us that we haven't been to for a spring outing?"
"In that case, it's better to ......"
"Okay, okay, you just said which places you can choose, right?"
Zhang Yang understood where Sister Gao was waiting for him.
To put it bluntly, I want to travel at public expense.
But Zhang Yang was also thinking about going out for a while.
It's not that it's a spring outing, but that he has an interesting idea in mind.
You need to go to places with a lot of antiques and art markets to make it happen.
The antique city near the sea is almost meaningless.
Previously, Zhang Yang wanted to get a platform for "live treasure appreciation".
Recently, after the platform was launched, it has received a lot of praise.
There are already several treasures sold.
Although the commissions earned are small, it shows that the platform is really viable.
Not only the audience in the live broadcast room responded well.
Even after Yanjing's old man Ma heard about it, he specially called Zhang Yang and praised him:
Dare to think and dare to do, and have a bit of feelings for the world, which belongs to both ability and political integrity.
This hat is worn, and Zhang Yang can't help but be a little fluttery.
So he thought about carrying forward the "feelings of helping the world" again.
Build a platform dedicated to exposing fake antiques.
Zhang Yang was still hesitating, exposing fake antiques would not affect the interests of others, and committed the anger of counterfeiters.
But today, after seeing so many outrageous fakes.
He understood.
Those who use high imitations to deceive people, compared with the scammers who use industrial garbage to cheat old men and old ladies out of money, are simply kind.
People use Qinghai jade to pretend to be Hetian jade, but it is still a piece of jade, and a certificate can be issued.
Those small workshops that really lack morality use plastic directly.
The key is that you can really cheat money.
The goal of flamboyance falls directly on this low-end fake.
He felt that if he went to the larger antique market, he should be able to find a lot of materials.
The difficulty is to pick out the typical ones, so that people can know that they are fakes as soon as they search for keywords.
For example, "blue and white porcelain scales", "Han Dynasty jade pagoda", "Yuan blue and white yurt".
If you meet the basic description of the item, you can directly treat it as a fake.
"Boss, the first place I recommend is Semporna."
"The view over there is exceptional, you can dive and eat seafood is cheap, I have asked the tour group......"
As soon as he heard that it was a foreign place, Zhang Yang directly stretched out his hand to deny it.
There is no flaw in the reason found:
"Xu Jie has gout, you can't eat seafood."
"I'm claustrophobic and afraid to go into the water."
"You can't let him watch us eat, can you? Let me watch you dive, right? ”
"Xu Jie, do you have gout?"
Generally, the first place to mention is often the place you want to go the most.
So Sister Gao looked at Xu Jie in shock, as if she was guilty of gout.
But Zhang Yang said that Xu Jie has to hurt if he doesn't hurt.
He covered his knees directly, and a painful expression appeared on his face:
"Oops, it's over, it's going to rain tomorrow."
"Poof~" Xiao Tang squirted out with a direct laugh on the side.
Zhang Yang covered his mouth and suppressed his smile with a cough.
"What, Sister Gao, what about the second place?"
"The second place is Sanya."
"To be honest, it's better to go to Sanya than to Semporna, in fact, the consumption level is about the same. Xu Jie, I have a miracle medicine for gout at home, do you want to endure it? ”
"Sister Gao, is there anything in the province?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Huh?" Sister Gao was stunned by the question directly.
The remaining two people also looked at Zhang Yang with an aggrieved face.
Everyone remembered the fear of being dominated by their parents when they were children.
The cost performance outside the province is too low, and there is nothing fun in the province, so why not go to the park on the outskirts of the city for a picnic?
"Well, don't look at me like that, I think of a place that you girls will definitely like."
"Yiwu."
"You can spend as much as you like there."
"What about me?" Xu Jie looked at Zhang Yang expectantly.
"Your words...... Sister Gao, they lack a bag. ”
