Jianbao life

Chapter 316
At this time, Lao Hu had a shocked expression on his face. He had browsed through countless materials before, which proved that this is indeed a genuine product, and there is one more thing he didn't say. Famous masters have checked it, and they all agree that it is a genuine product, which is why they gave him such confidence.

Now Chu Chen said that it was a fake, and he could not accept it anyway. This made him start to doubt Chu Chen's eyesight. Can't compare to you, a hairy boy?
But even though he thought so, due to Chu Chen's identity, Lao Hu didn't question it immediately, but asked for advice: "Mr. Chu, I don't know what's wrong with my thing?" Of course, his tone was somewhat obvious at this time. Some blunt.

Chu Chen was not surprised to see that Lao Hu was unwilling to accept this result, so he held the red jar in the glaze, with his mouth facing down, tilted at a certain angle, and then pointed at a place inside the jar with a bare flashlight.

According to what Chu Chen said, the two used a magnifying glass to look at the place Chu Chen pointed to. After seeing it, Lao Hu was stunned.That place was the same as the blue and white pot that Chu Chen met before, with the word "Fire Clay" engraved in extremely small numbers.

However, these two words are even more inconspicuous than that of the blue and white pot. If it wasn't because of the supernatural power, Chu Chen would really not be able to find these two words for a while. Of course, in this case, he would not be able to confirm This is a fake.

"Huo Ni? Is this a fake made by Zhang Huo Ni?" Lao Yu asked with a look of astonishment on his face.

Chu Chen nodded. If you want to say that the level of this fire clay is really high, except for some flaws in the fetal bone and flying red that were discovered before, the other parts are exactly the same as the real one, and even the "death bubble" can be imitated, which is really amazing. People are amazed, but fortunately this person's craftsmanship has not been passed down, otherwise it will definitely be a disaster for the antique industry.

"Wait! It seems that no one has confirmed that Zhang Huoni must not have been inherited, and if Zhang Huoni's craftsmanship is passed down, this red glaze pot is the work of Zhang Huoni's successor?"

Thinking of this, Chu Chen suddenly felt a little bad, because he felt that Lao Hu's experience was too coincidental. He stepped on a second thunder, but happened to step on a high imitation made by Zhang Huoni. The people in the Bureau are related to the heirs of Zhang Huo Ni.

So Chu Chen hurried to the side and called Mr. Liu.When Mr. Liu heard the news, he was very surprised, and quickly asked Chu Chen to take the glazed red pot to the testing center in Beijing for appraisal.

After hanging up the phone, Chu Chen walked up to Lao Hu. At this moment, Lao Hu still had an unbelievable expression on his face. He couldn't accept this result at all. This thing cost all his savings, even though the jar was worth more than [-] yuan. It's worth some money, but most of it can be said to have been wasted. How can he explain it to his family?
Chu Chen secretly sighed, in the final analysis, Lao Hu was too greedy. In that situation, anyone with a certain amount of experience can detect the abnormality, and Lao Hu had already realized that it was a game at the beginning, but later Get carried away because of greed, trapped in it.

It is true that stepping on "thunder" may indeed step on the real product, but the chances of this can be said to be smaller than winning the lottery. If Chu Chen hadn't relied on his own supernatural powers, he would definitely not be involved in this kind of thing to go.So, in the final analysis, all this is caused by Lao Hu himself.

Chu Chen sighed secretly, and then asked: "Old Hu, I wonder if you intend to sell this red pot in glaze?" After all, it belongs to someone else, and it is impossible to get it without paying a price.

"what?"

Seeing the surprised expressions of Lao Hu and Lao Yu, Chu Chen explained the reason to them.

Old Hu thought for a while and asked, "Mr. Chu, I wonder how much you plan to pay?"

Chu Chen thought about it, and thought that after all, Lao Hu had spent all his savings, and the payment was too low. He might not be happy for a while, so he said, "I will pay [-] yuan for this red pot in glaze. How about it?" ?”

To say that the price Chu Chen offered is already very kind. Although high imitations have their value in the market, but imitations are imitations after all, and the price in the market cannot be very high. Although the artistic level of the underglaze red pot is good, its value is only [-] to [-], and it should not exceed [-] at most.

Therefore, Chu Chen offered a price of [-], which was already very kind.

However, judging from Old Hu's faltering expression, he was still not satisfied with the price, which made Chu Chen sigh, poor people must have something to hate!

Old Yu was taken aback when he heard the price offered by Chu Chen. He didn't expect Chu Chen to be so kind, but when he saw his old friend's performance, he also frowned, and quickly pulled Lao Hu without a trace. She gave him another look.

Lao Hu got Lao Yu's reminder, and immediately remembered Chu Chen's identity. If he annoyed the other party, he would have no good fruit to eat, and what Chu Chen is doing now is also to maintain the order of the antique market. If he is more greedy, he will probably be excluded from the circle of antiques in the future.

Thinking of the serious consequences caused by this, while breaking out in a cold sweat, Lao Hu quickly agreed to the price offered by Chu Chen.

After the transaction was completed, Chu Chen rushed to the testing center regardless of Lao Yu's kindness to persuade him to stay.

After more than 20 minutes, Chu Chen arrived at the testing center smoothly, because Mr. Liu had greeted him before, and there was already a person in charge waiting for him at the door.

After exchanging pleasantries, Chu Chen handed over the underglaze red-drawn white cloud dragon pattern jar to the other party. After the person in charge explained the matter, Chu Chen invited him to a meal. After all, it was still during the National Day holiday. Call someone over to help him with work, it's a little bit of fun.

After eating, when Chu Chen and the person in charge returned to the testing center, they unexpectedly saw Mr. Qian and an old man standing at the door. The old man was also known to Chu Chen. The name of this person was Guan Guokang. old man.As for the reason why they came here, it is not difficult to guess, it must be for testing
Chu Chen hurriedly stepped forward to greet him respectfully. After a while of politeness, everyone waited patiently for the test results while chatting.

Two hours later, the person in charge came out with three test reports, and he gave one to each of them, and then began to explain.

Now Chu Chen and the others are undoubtedly very nervous. They are afraid that the result of the test is indeed as Chu Chen guessed before, and it will be bad.

The antique market is said to be big, but it is actually not big. If such high imitations enter the market, there should not be too many, as long as dozens of pieces. Once found, customers will not dare to buy the corresponding items of the same category. This will affect the entire antique market. The impact can be described as catastrophic, and it is likely that countless antique shops will close because of it.

The person in charge first briefly explained the meaning of some data to everyone, and then said: "According to our tests, in terms of the degree of oxidation of the glaze on the jar, the production time of this jar should not exceed 30 years."

Hearing the answer given by the person in charge, everyone's heart skipped a beat. Zhang Huoni was active from the end of the Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China. It is said that he had passed away before liberation, and even if he hadn't passed away, at his age In other words, it is impossible to make imitation utensils.

Therefore, there is no doubt that the underglaze red jar should have come from the heir of Zhang Huoni.Such a result is the last thing all antique dealers and collectors want to see.

"Director Lao, I wonder if this number of years can be more accurate?" Mr. Qian asked anxiously.

"No." Director Lao shook his head and said, "We came to the conclusion based on the oxidation of glaze and air, and this oxidation rate is very slow. With the current technical means, 30 years is the most accurate." value."

Qian Lao shook his head helplessly when he heard the words. The reason why he asked this question was also to judge how much harm this person would do to the antique market.

If the thing was fired 30 or [-] years ago, there may not be many such high imitations in the antique market. If so, the harm will be great.And if it has been fired in the past two years or recently, the hazard is estimated to be much smaller.

Of course, no matter whether it is the latest firing or the previous firing, the counterfeiter must catch it as soon as possible.

At this moment, a staff member came out with the underglaze red jar and the test report.

Director Lao went on to read the report, and then said to everyone: "According to Mr. Chu's explanation, we also conducted tests on the age of the fetal bone. From the test results, the fetal bone is not an old one, but a modern imitation. of."

Chu Chen shook his head and sighed looking at the jar with part of the glaze scraped off. This is a bit troublesome. He hoped that he could follow the clues he got from Lao Hu to find that person, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

So he hurriedly greeted Mr. Qian and the others, then called Mr. Liu and told him the result.Mr. Liu attached great importance to this result, hung up the phone without saying a few words, and went to tell someone to investigate this matter.

After hanging up the phone, Chu Chen saw that Mr. Qian and Guan Guokang were studying the underglaze red pot. The more they looked at it, the more they frowned, and finally the two shook their heads helplessly.

Guan Guokang said with a wry smile: "This is troublesome, if this thing does not have the mark inside, it is really difficult to judge its authenticity!"

"That's right, if it wasn't for the markings, it can be said that most people would be able to punch eyes." Old Qian sighed.

"Mr. Qian, I still can't figure out why Zhang Huoni or his heirs put a mark on the work. Isn't this intentionally leaving a loophole?" Chu Chen asked a little strangely.
