Chu Chen turned the jar upside down, pointed to the bottom and said, "your jar looks like the product of Kangxi folk kiln in the middle period from the perspective of tire quality, but there is no such phenomenon as" glutinous rice flour ". Moreover, your jar is too heavy, which is the tire clay refined by modern mud refiners. The tire density made from this kind of tire clay is too high, so it has a heavy feeling. ”

"in addition, since it is a folk porcelain in the middle of Kangxi period, there are two characteristics under the observation of high-power magnifier. One is that most of the underglaze bubbles are very small and dense, and the enamel has a sense of opacification, like milk mixed with water. Second, the blue and white texture is deep and thick, such as cloud like, no particle phenomenon. You can see these two points for yourself. "

Then he took out a magnifying glass from his pocket and put it into yuan Hongjian's hand.

Yuan Hongjian took a closer look with a magnifying glass and found that there were really no two phenomena mentioned by Chu Chen, which made him a little frustrated. However, he still asked: "boss Chu, what if my ring jar was fired in the middle or late stage?"

Chuchen said with a smile: "first of all, as I said just now, the characteristics of this ring jar are the products fired by private kilns in the mid Kangxi period. However, even if it is not in the mid Kangxi period, under the observation of the magnifying glass, its characteristics are still different from this ring jar."

"First of all, the bubbles are relatively large and dense, the enamel visual sense is relatively clear, the opacification feeling is not strong, and the water is obviously less mixed with milk. Secondly, the color of blue and white material is blue, the gray feeling is relatively not obvious, black brown or yellow brown stripes are common in the color depth, and the phenomenon of green material particles is rare. In addition, when you look at the green material under the mirror, you feel obviously covered by the glaze... "

Then Chu Chen explained the technological characteristics of the Kangxi folk kiln, as well as the characteristics of blue and white hair color and glaze, and finally said:

"so, your ring jar is not the product of the Kangxi era. Moreover, from the characteristics of the thin layer of blue and white hair color, no deep embryo, no mineral crystal state, and little change in the blue and white color of the same ware, you are the best It's just the chemicals used, and the kiln fire hasn't gone down. I'm sure it's a product of recent years. "

After hearing Chu Chen's reasonable explanation, Yuan Hongjian knew that he had been cheated this time even if he didn't believe it. He said angrily, "no, I have to find that guy to return the goods."

With that, he put the ring jar into the box, ready to go to the stall owner to settle accounts.

"Wait! You can't solve the problem even if you go! " Chu Chen and Uncle Wu quickly stop yuan private construction.

"Why, can't I settle with him?" Yuan Hongjian said angrily.

"Elder, how are you going to settle accounts with that man? He has said it's a piece of cake." Uncle Wu shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Yuan Hongjian has some doubts about this.

Uncle Wu explained: "at a glance, you can see what's going on."

"Why didn't he tell me!"

Chu Chen said: "if you go to him, he will definitely say that they are all things that can be seen at a glance. Does he still need to tell you?"

"This This I don't care. Anyway, he can't sell fake goods to cheat people! " With that, Yuan Hongjian is ready to go to the man again.

"Before I say whether you can find the peddler, I'll ask you first, what did you buy?" Asked Uncle Wu.

"Ring the jar!"

"Will it ring?"

"Of course it will ring. Why don't I buy it?"

"Yes, since it can ring, can it be said that it is fake?"

"But it's not from the year of Kangxi!"

"At most, it's not a replacement. It's not a fake."

Listen to Uncle Wu say so, Yuan Hongjian immediately silly eyes, said: "then how should I do?"

"I have to pay the tuition!" Said Uncle Wu.

At a glance, it's an ambiguous jargon in the field of antiques, which can be interpreted as being true or false at a glance. So generally speaking, if the seller tells you that something is at a glance, you should be more careful when you buy it.

In addition, you can't say that antiques are fake. As long as they are made of genuine materials, they are porcelain, jade and bronze.

Fakes in antiques are called "making old" in jargon, which refers to "fake antiques" made by certain imitation methods, but they are real. As for "old imitation, old imitation" refers to the imitation antiques of the Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China, "new imitation" refers to the modern and contemporary imitation, and "high imitation" refers to the well-made full simulation antiques.

After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Yuan Hongjian looked depressed and said, "is there really no way? That's 20000 yuan! "

Although Chu Chen sympathized with him, he didn't have a good way to deal with it, so he comforted him and said: "elder, the chance of drilling in our field is very high. Basically, few of us will not drill. Even the elder is no exception. Let's just say that I had another drilling last July, and I lost more than 400000!"

"Four hundred thousand!" Yuan Hongjian was shocked. Now the house in a better area only needs so much money. He lost so much money in the second eye. Moreover, Chu Chen's eyesight is much more powerful than him, and he also lost so much money. Like him, he can't afford to lose his fortune!Thinking of this, Yuan Hongjian couldn't help but feel hesitant about whether to stay in the antique business.

Seeing yuan Hongjian's frowning and meditating, Chu Chen said with a smile: "so, in the field of antiques, we should pay attention to seeing more and buying less. Only when we have a grasp in our heart can we start. Before that, there is a premise that you must study more and have a certain foundation."

Hearing Chu Chen say this, Yuan Hongjian was a little embarrassed. He also knew that his decision to enter the antique industry was actually made by taking a shot of his head. The key point was that he started to buy things after reading several books with color pictures. Now think about it, it's strange that he won't be cheated at his own level.

Yuan Hongjian thought about it, and felt that he was not reconciled to leave this line, so he asked: "boss Chu, is that as long as you read more books?"

"Reading more books is one of the keys. You have to practice."

"Well, I can't tell the true from the false. How can I practice it?"

"You can visit the museum more and see the collection. In addition, you can often come to my shop to have a look. The things I have here are basically authentic except for those high imitations marked! "

Yuan Hongjian was very happy when he heard that, and then he was a little embarrassed and said, "will this trouble you too much?"

"What's the trouble? If you come here often, you can help us increase our popularity." Chuchen said with a smile.

"Then I'll be more respectful than obedient..."

Since then, Yuan Hongjian has come to the store for a walk every day. Chu Chen and Uncle Wu will have tea with him if they are free. In this way, a few years later, Yuan Hongjian has really become an experienced player with good eyesight, which is not expected by Chu Chen and Wu Shu. Of course, this is a later story.

Next, the three chatted for a while, during which yuan Hongjian asked many questions about antiques, and Chu Chen and Uncle Wu also took the trouble to answer them one by one. As a result, the relationship between the two sides has become closer.

In this way, the morning time soon went. Yuan Hongjian looked at the time and said to them with a smile:

"ladies and gentlemen, it's noon. Let's have a meal together. It's my treat today!"

"You're welcome. We've already ordered food in our shop!" Chu Chen and Uncle Wu quickly declined.

Yuan Hongjian quickly said: "how can this be polite? Today, the two teachers have taught me so many things. It's nothing for me to treat you to a meal. If you refuse, how can I come here next time?"! Let's go together... "

Seeing that Yuan Hongjian's attitude was very sincere, and he also made a strong invitation, Chu Chen and Uncle Wu could only agree.

They didn't go to any big hotel, so they found a clean local restaurant to eat, and the taste was good.

When Yuan Hongjian was ready to take out his wallet from his pocket to settle the bill, he suddenly met a hard object at his fingertip. When he felt it out, he remembered that it was a jade pendant he bought at the stall yesterday.

"Two teachers, this is a jade pendant I bought yesterday. The seller told me it was from Ming Dynasty. Please show it to me!"

With that, he was ready to pass it directly, but thinking of a rule that Chu Chen and Uncle Wu had just said, he quickly put the jade pendant on the table.

Uncle Wu gave a little smile, then took the jade pendant into his hand and observed it carefully.

This jade pendant is made of white jade and is carved with round carving technology. The whole jade pendant is orchid shaped, and the orchid pieces are tiny, lifelike and exquisite. At that time, Yuan Hongjian fell in love with the shape of the jade pendant, so he bought it.

After seeing the jade pendant, Uncle Wu put it in front of chuchen and then asked, "Lao yuan, how much did you spend on this jade pendant?"

"Two thousand eight!"

Uncle Wu nodded: "first of all, I tell you, this jade pendant is definitely not from the Ming Dynasty. Its workmanship is wrong. In addition, some traces on its surface are old."

"In other words, is this jade pendant fake?" Yuan Hongjian asked in disappointment.

Uncle Wu shook his head with a smile: "jade is not fake, but made of Hetian white jade. The quality is OK. Moreover, this jade is actually an old imitation jade. The imitation time should be in the period of the Republic of China, and the carving is also good. As long as you play for a period of time, you can add value to it."

"Really

After hearing the unexpected news, hongyupei asked, "how much is it worth?"

Chuchen said with a smile: "it's higher than what you bought, 3000 yuan. If you can make a plate of it, the value of this jade will be higher!"

"Ha ha!" Yuan Hongjian clapped his hands and laughed a few more times. For him, although 200 yuan is only a small sum, it is more or less a leak. Moreover, this jade pendant can add value in the future. This feeling is really great for him.
