Jianbao life

Chapter 858 Water Stone
There is a saying in "Book of Rites? Qu Li": "A father's enmity is not shared with the heavens, a brother's enmity is not against the army, and a friend's enmity is not in the same country.", you and Zhang San tied the knot and ran to revenge Li Si, isn't there a reason? sick?

Therefore, although Kang Yonghui's experience is pitiful, his subsequent behavior is a manifestation of psychological distortion, which is absolutely intolerable, so he should also bear the corresponding responsibility for it.

Lin Shengfu was in a good mood when he learned of Kang Yonghui's whereabouts. He said, "Young Master Chu, I'll take care of the rest. I'm sure he won't be able to fly even with his wings!"

"Okay! But when the time comes, I also want to get to know this Kang Yonghui..."

If Kang Yonghui was just a liar, then Chu Chen would definitely not want to know him, but the two pieces of porcelain that Kang Yonghui brought out were remarkable.

For example, the bottle that Zhuang Shengjing bought, except for the superfluous Flint Red, was as good as the real thing. It was obviously made by a person with excellent porcelain firing skills.

And the other piece of Yuan blue and white, if you don't talk about flint red, it is very realistic when you think about it. This can be seen from the eyes that can deceive Lao Wu. You must know that Lao Wu's eyesight is not low. Level, already counted as an expert, to be able to deceive his eyes, that Yuan blue and white fake is indeed something extraordinary.

The two perfectly imitated pieces of porcelain aroused Chu Chen's interest for a moment. He wanted to know who the maker was. If possible, he really wanted to recruit the maker to his own kiln.Of course, this is on the premise that the producer's character is not very bad. If the producer has a problem with his character, he will definitely not accept it.

Everyone chatted a little more about Kang Yonghui, Lin Shengfu chuckled and said, "Young Master Chu, I brought all the things at home this time, and I need your help to identify them!"

Chu Chen looked at the big boxes on the ground, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, it's a trivial matter to help you identify them, but you don't have to bring all the things in your house. It's impossible for the experts you hired to take all the things Everything was identified wrong."

Lin Shengfu chuckled and said, "Young Master Chu, I still trust you in this aspect!"

Not to mention Chu Chen's sharp eyesight, asking Chu Chen to help with identification can also increase the chances of contacting Chu Chen and exchanging feelings. Therefore, for Lin Shengfu, let alone the things at home, even if he buys antiques in the future, there is a chance I have to ask Chu Chen to help me identify it.

Now that Lin Shengfu said so, Chu Chen smiled and said, "Then let's start..."

There were forty or fifty things that Lin Shengfu brought. Although Chu Chen was able to quickly identify them, it was too perfunctory or shocking, so he called Uncle Wu to help identify them.

Of course, Lin Shengfu would not say anything about it, especially since Uncle Wu was still the father-in-law of Chu Chen.

Uncle Wu is proficient in porcelain, so Chu Chen handed over all the porcelain utensils to Uncle Wu, and appraised other types of utensils himself.

The first thing Chu Chen got was a white jade spirit monkey toy. The spirit monkey was in a sitting position, with its chest exposed and its belly exposed, with an alert expression and a paw scratching its cheek. It looked very cute.Monkey and Hou are homophonic, and in ancient my country, they often imply good life wishes such as conferring a marquis and worshiping a minister, and immediately conferring a marquis, and Lin Shengfu also said that this thing was given to him by others.

From the perspective of Chu Chen, who is already a master-level carver, the carving of this utensil is not bad, belonging to the level of a skilled worker. Of course, this is based on Chu Chen's harsh eyes. For ordinary people, such a carving The level is already very good.

However, in the eyes of Chu Chen, only the carver can catch this toy piece. As for the material, he can only smile bitterly to himself, because he just said that the experts Lin Shengfu hired were just wrong, but this piece The material of the play piece is still wrong.

Of course, it is also possible that Lin Shengfu did not let other experts appraise this item because it was given by someone else, otherwise, that expert would probably be scolded bloody by Lin Shengfu.

Chu Chen raised his head and asked, "Boss Lin, is this thing made of Hotan white jade?"

Lin Shengfu nodded and said, "That's right! Back then there was an appraisal certificate, but I don't know where I lost it."

Chu Chen shook his head: "Well, I can only tell you with regret that this is not Hotan white jade, and the appraisal certificate should also be fake."

"What?! It's fake?!" Lin Shengfu said incredulously, "But I showed it to an expert before, and he also confirmed that it is indeed Khotan white jade!"

Chu Chen said: "This is indeed not the Hotan white jade, but the Hotan water stone that is very similar to it."

"This..." Lin Shengfu still couldn't believe it. After a while, he came back to his senses and said:
"Young Master Chu, it's not that I don't believe you. The most important thing is that this thing was given to me by a good friend of mine, and it also has a certificate of authenticity."

Chu Chen chuckled and said, "Boss Lin, I understand your feelings, but let's judge, we have to say something, I can't tell lies against my conscience!"

Lin Shengfu nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes! Of course I believe in your judgment, but it's just that I can't react for a while, don't mind it!"

Chu Chen said with a smile: "Boss Lin, don't keep me in mind. We are talking on an equal footing now. You should have questions, and I can't say whether it is a water stone or a water stone. After all, there is no basis for empty talk. You have to come up with some evidence, don't you think?"

"Yes, yes, yes! I was thinking about it!" Lin Shengfu was right when he thought about it. Since Chu Chen said that this thing is wrong, there will always be his reasons, and it cannot be explained that it is a piece of Khotan white jade that looks very similar. Things, Chu Chen wanted to be unconventional, saying it was fake, right?

"Well, I'll tell you about the Khotan water stone now."

Chu Chen felt that if he didn't say one, two, three, Lin Shengfu's heart would always be pissed. Although Lin Shengfu couldn't do anything to him, as an eye master, he had to tell the reason for it no matter what. So I gave Lin Shengfu a more detailed introduction.

"The main component of Hetian water stone is quartzite, but it's not all quartzite. Its hardness is much higher than that of long-known mineral quartzite. But it is not oily, and it is extremely destructive, and it is particularly easy to break. The internal structure is anti-riot The crystalline structure after the glass is broken, and some have bright spots. The color is that pale color, and the polishing looks dry."

Speaking of this, Chu Chen asked Lao Wu to get a real Khotan white jade. Although the material of the jade is not outstanding, but comparing the two, it is obvious that Lin Shengfu's toy piece looks much better. Dry some.

Chu Chen continued to explain: "However, if there is no comparison after all, the gap seems to be relatively small, and because the surface looks like Hetian jade, novices who have no experience in Tibetans will be fooled by this, especially the processed finished products are more deceptive. .”

Lin Shengfu nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes! Like me, if it wasn't for the comparison and your introduction from Mr. Chu, I would not be able to see what kind of water stone this thing is made of. However, apart from the fact that it looks a little dry , is there no other way to identify it?"

Chu Chen replied: "Of course it is impossible, and the identification method is relatively simple. Because of the density ratio of the Hetian water stone and the bottom of the Hetian water stone, you can find it by weighing it in your hand. The time when the bottom of the Hetian water stone falls to the hand I don’t feel the falling feeling of hitting the bone, but Hetian jade has the feeling of falling in the hand as if it hit the bone.”

"In addition, the Hetian water stone looks like rice soup under the light. It is half a piece of rice. But it is not sticky, that is, the inside is not cloudy. This is obviously different from Hetian jade..."

Both Hetian jade and water stone are stones that come out of the river. The main difference between them is weight and internal structure. The interior of Hetian jade is a fibrous and tightly intertwined structure, which is the fine and clean Hetian jade seed material. It is an unprocessed raw material, and the structure of the material must be a fiber interwoven structure.

In the sun, if you cover the material with your hands and see through it or use the light of a flashlight to penetrate from the side, you can see the uneven internal structure of Hetian jade, some places are delicate, some places are rough, and you can see that the jade particles appear Fiber interweaving structure.

Some Hetian jade materials can be seen through light transmission, and there are some small white cotton balls inside, which are unevenly distributed. This is very important. If you don’t know this, you won’t be able to tell what it is It is the seed material.

Chu Chen explained the comparison between Hetian jade and water stone to Lin Shengfu in detail.

Lin Shengfu nodded again and again, not knowing whether he understood or not, he smiled and gave Chu Chen a thumbs up, and praised:
"Young Master Chu, what you are talking about is professionalism. The expert I hired, who faltered and hawed for a long time, I didn't understand a single thing, but what he said was really good jade, and he scratched a line on the glass. There will be marks on the glass, but the jade itself will not, I tried it at the time, and the marks can really be drawn on the glass."

Chu Chen smiled and said, "It should be said that there is a basis for this statement, because the hardness of jade is [-], and some of the better ones can even reach [-]. So if you are really willing to scratch glass with jade, it can really broke the glass."

"But you can understand one thing. We said that jade can scratch glass, but we didn't say that jade is the one that can scratch glass. In nature, jade is not the only stone that can scratch glass. If so, many minerals can do this, so it's not a necessary and sufficient condition."

"Just like the water stone I said, the hardness is also very high, so you can also draw marks on the glass at the beginning. However, it is better to do this kind of experiment less, after all, if it is true, it will have some impact on the jade. ..."
