Seeing this, Lu Changshun said to Chu Chen: "Xiao Chu, can you help me to have a look later? I can't see so many people in the afternoon!"
"OK, no problem!"
Among the things to be identified today, porcelain is the most. Therefore, in addition to Chu Chen, Guokang and another expert are also responsible for the work. In addition, Yu renpeng also knows porcelain. Even if Chu Chen helps Lu Changshun, porcelain is also very busy, so Chu Chen agrees to Lu Changshun's request without much thinking.
See Chu Chen agreed, Lu Changshun quickly expressed thanks, and then immediately discussed with the staff, let the other party help to carry out the diversion.
As Chu Chen said earlier, there are always more fakes and less genuine antiques in the field of antiques. The same is true in this treasure assessment activity. Basically, only three or four of the ten antiques that need to be identified are genuine, and among the genuine antiques, they are all ordinary goods, and exquisite and rare.
Of course, rare is not without, just as Chu Chen's cricket jar is a rare masterpiece.
Cricket jar, as its name suggests, is a jar specially used for raising and fighting crickets. In Xuande period of Ming Dynasty, the product is drum type, with concave cover and big shaped air hole on the top. Six characters in single line blue and white are written vertically inside the cover, and six characters in double circles are on the bottom. In the Wanli period, there were round, square, plum, melon edge, fan and octagonal forms of utensils, which were still fired in the Qing Dynasty.
This cricket can is a product of the official kiln of Xuande period. There are four melon rungs on the belly of the can. The leaves and vines are full of vitality. Melon and rung pattern is an auspicious pattern commonly used in Ming Dynasty porcelain decoration. The big one is melon and the small one is rung, which means that melon and rung are continuous, implying the prosperity of future generations.
In addition, red flint can be seen at the junction of the body and glaze, which can be described as a line showing the characteristics of Xuande utensils.
According to the market trend, Chu Chen gave the price of 600000 yuan, which made the treasure holder almost cry with joy. The crowd under the stage was full of emotion, and the eyes looking at the treasure holder were full of envy.
Chu Chen saw it quickly and accurately, and he could tell the truth and falsehood. There was no one who questioned him as much as he did in the morning. Everyone who asked him for identification was convinced. In this way, it was soon Lu Changshun's turn to separate the treasure holders.
"Miss Chu, this is an emerald bracelet that I bought for 20000 yuan when I visited Myanmar three years ago. It's said that the price of emerald is going up this year. Would you please help me see how much it is worth now?"
The first one who came to identify jade was a middle-aged woman who looked like she was in her early 40s. As she said this, she took out the bracelet from the box in her hand and handed it to Chu Chen.
Chu Chen took the bracelet in his hand and looked at it slightly. Then he said, "this lady, your bracelet is not Burmese jade."
"What, how can it be? I have a certificate. Will you look at it?" That woman listen to Chu Chen so say, on the spot turned over.
Chuchen secretly wry smile shook his head, difficult not to appear in the morning of the storm?
However, the reality obviously did not develop as chuchen thought.
"Don't worry, elder sister. Since teacher Chu said so, there must be a reason..."
"Yes! This certificate is also fake. First listen to what Mr. Chu said. If you don't think it's right, say it again... "
“……”
For a while, many people in the room were persuading. Basically, everyone was helping Chu Chen speak. Seeing this, Lu Changshun also gave Chu Chen a thumbs up with a smile.
When the middle-aged woman heard that everyone was helping Chu Chen to speak, her momentum immediately dropped, and she said with no expression:
"then tell me, how can my bracelet not be Myanmar Jadeite?"
"First of all, this bracelet is really made of emerald," chuchen explained
Everyone was confused when Chu Chen said that. Why did you say that it was not Burmese jadeite just now and that it was jadeite at the scene? Isn't that self contradictory?
Chuchen said with a smile, "you don't think that jadeite is only made in Myanmar, do you?"
"Do you mean my bracelet is made of emerald from other places?" Asked the middle-aged woman.
"Yes! This is Guatemalan jade Chu Chen nodded.
Guatemalan jadeite deposit is the maitagao jadeite deposit discovered in 1952 near manzier village, El progresu province. Its jadeite is mainly composed of jadeite, diopside and augite.
Guatemalan jadeite is said to have been very famous in Maya civilization many years ago. Later, it was lost with the mysterious disappearance of Maya civilization. It was not until 1975 that an American couple Jay and Lou ridinger rediscovered and developed it in the country.
There are many places in the world where jadeite is produced, such as the United States, island countries and other countries. However, most of the jadeite mined by these countries are of poor quality, and few of them are of high quality. Therefore, there is a reason why Myanmar Jadeite is unique.
"How much is my bracelet worth?" The middle-aged woman asked again."I'm sorry, this bracelet is not worth much money!" Chu Chen shook his head.
"It's also emerald. How can my bracelet be worthless?" The middle-aged woman asked incredulously.
"Because the texture is too bad!"
Chuchen explained: "your bracelet is made of Guatemalan grey green jadeite, which is similar to Myanmar's oil green jadeite in appearance. Its chemical composition is basically the same as that of jadeite, but because of its different internal elements, its color is relatively dark and its texture is relatively coarse, which is not as good as Myanmar's oil green jadeite."
"And because the infrared spectrum of Guatemalan jadeite is not the same as that of Myanmar Jadeite, the formal institutions in China cannot issue certificates."
The middle-aged woman was stunned. Then she asked, "is my bracelet really worthless?"
At this time, Lu Changshun took out a pendant and put it next to the bracelet. He said, "look at my Douqing pendant. It's much better than your bracelet, isn't it?"
The middle-aged woman looked carefully and found that Lu Changshun's Pendant really looked better than her own bracelet.
Lu Changshun continued: "my pendant market price is only 600. How much do you think your bracelet is worth?"
"Six hundred?" Hearing the price, the middle-aged woman was stunned.
Chu Chen said: "this pendant is really only 600. If you don't believe it, you can go to the major jadeite jewelry stores to ask. I don't think you've touched jadeite before, have you? "
The middle-aged woman looked back and nodded, "yes, I really haven't touched this bracelet. The guide took us to buy it."
When it comes to the tour guide, she really hates her teeth. Now she doesn't understand that she must have been cheated by the tour guide. However, it's too late for her to settle the accounts with the other party. It makes her want to cry.
Chu Chen secretly shakes his head. The behavior of the tour guide's entrapment of tourists is endless, especially under the guise of cheap goods. If you don't buy expensive ones, some of them just give them fake ones. In addition to deceptive marketing, some stores even use threatening means, such as selling kitchen knives.
Chu Chen had heard one of his guests say something before. He said that once he went to a certain place for a tour. After playing for a short time, the guide took them shopping, and then he took them to a shop. The owner said that these knives were military products and the quality was very good. Then the owner deliberately took the knives to slash the iron pipes, which made many members of the regiment shudder and buy them as soon as possible.
Chu Chen heard several similar things. When he went online, he saw many disputes caused by shopping. After seeing so much, Chu Chen made up his mind that if he went to travel, he would not follow the group. The trouble could be solved. The key is that such things are too rare and completely destroy the atmosphere of tourism.
But this kind of thing Chu Chen can't help. He can only sympathize with the middle-aged woman and said, "madam, if you don't understand jadeite, I suggest you buy less in the future. If you really want to buy it, you'd better go to some bigger jewelry stores, such as teacher Lu's jadeite shop, but the old and the young don't cheat."
Lu Changshun smiles at Chu Chen and thanks him for his help in advertising.
"Miss Chu, I really offended you just now. I will remember your words." The middle-aged woman bowed to Chu Chen and then left.
After the middle-aged woman left, Chu Chen looked at more than ten pieces of jade in a row. With his ability, of course, it is impossible for him to read one jade wrong, which makes Lu Changshun look at him with new eyes. At the same time, Lu Changshun also has bitterness in his heart.
The young man in his early twenties was even more sophisticated than him. Compared with Chu Chen, he felt that his age seemed to live on dogs.
"That's the difference between genius and ordinary people."
While chuchen was identifying a jade finger, Xu took an old woman who looked sixty years old to chuchen. The old woman's hair was gray, her face was covered with wrinkles left by years, and her clothes were washed white. At a glance, she knew that her family's economic conditions were very poor.
At this time, the old woman holding a Maitreya like a pit, is very formal standing next to Xu.
Xu said to everyone, "this is Aunt Li. She has been hard-working all her life. She has grown up with a pair of children by herself. She got married and had children. But just as Aunt Li was preparing to enjoy Qingfu, her grandson was diagnosed with leukemia last week."
"What a pity! I'll donate a hundred! "
"I'll donate a hundred, too!"
"I donate..."
Before director Xu finished speaking, there was a lot of discussion on the scene. Many people expressed the idea of donating money. Chu Chen estimated that in this moment, the amount of donation would be nearly 5000 or 6000.
"Thank you! Thank you Seeing this, Aunt Li was filled with tears and expressed her thanks to everyone.
