Chapter 667

Uncle Wu put the jade ribbon board back into the box and asked with a smile, "Lao yuan, do you know the function of jade ribbon board in Ming Dynasty?"

"It's usually worn by the upper class." Yuanhong Jianhui road.

Uncle Wu said: "well, since it is worn by the upper class, how can there be such poor quality jade, such ordinary knife work, and also machine work."

"Er..." Yuan Hongjian was speechless. After a while, he said with a bitter smile, "so, I've hit my eyes again?"

Wu Shu and Chu Chen both laughed, and the meaning was self-evident.

Yuan Hongjian some depressed said: "but, why can someone use old jade to make a fake?"

Chu Chen said: "generally speaking, if you want to sell this antique, the most important thing is to be old enough, and jade is no exception. There are two ways to make old jade. One is "new materials and new workmanship". You should know something about this method. It is that after carving new jade, you can make old jade by chemical methods to be authentic. "

"Another way is to carve old jade with new craftsmanship, which is to carve old jade with poor quality and then process it. Because it's old jade, to some extent, it's more deceptive than new materials and new craftsmanship."

After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Yuan Hongjian frowned and said, "however, some of my jade belt boards seem to have been buried in the earth. Since the quality of the jade is not good, how can it be used for burial?"

Chuchen explained with a smile: "the reason is very simple. We all know that there was a jade dress in the Han Dynasty, which was buried with the dead. After many Han tombs were stolen, archaeologists can often see that the gold thread in the jade dress, the so-called golden thread, was stolen and cleaned, and the jade pieces were scattered in the coffin."

Hearing this, Yuan Hongjian said, "ah! Mr. Chu, do you mean that the material I use for these jade belt boards is the jade on the jade clothes? But how can the jade clothes of golden thread use such poor jade? "

Uncle Wu said with a smile: "Lao yuan, you have fallen into a misunderstanding in your thinking. Who said that the material used in Golden Jade clothing must be very good? In fact, the material used for the real jade clothing, especially the jade on it, is very common sapphire. "

"The reason why jade clothes with golden thread are precious is that they are made of jade pieces with gold wire, which can reflect people's fear of imperial power. In other words, this kind of precious is on the humanistic level. When it comes to the kind of jade pieces used to make materials, they are actually not worth much money. "

"Although the jade itself is not worth money, especially the things taken from the dead, ordinary goods are not welcome at all. But this kind of jade has one characteristic. It's thick. It's carved with dragon pattern and phoenix pattern. Then it's put together big and small. It's wrapped with gold or alloy and put in a box. It becomes a belt or buckle used by the king. "

"So a lot of grave robbers, including those from jade shops, saw the" business opportunity "and peddled the jade pieces. Because it is unearthed things, after transformation and then sold in the market, the value is much higher than a pile of unearthed jade pieces. And your seven jade belt boards are made of these jade pieces. "

After listening to Uncle Wu's explanation, Yuan Hongjian suddenly realized that at the same time, he could not help but feel very depressed. He felt that there were too many twists and turns in the field of antiques, and once he was not careful, he hit him twice.

However, Yuan Hongjian likes to be more real. Although this kind of character sometimes makes him get to the top of the rope, in some things, it may be easier for him to get through difficulties. For example, now, although he has made an eye, he is depressed and decides to make a name in the field of antiques, otherwise he will be sorry for the money he lost.

"Lao yuan, for me, your foundation is a little poor now, and you are really not suitable for shopping for the time being. Let's talk about this jade belt board. In fact, the imitation is not very good. "

Uncle Wu picked up a jade belt and said, "because the jade is old, the jade watch is aging and looks very deep and simple. But now when we carve patterns on it, the traces of new carving are quite different from the original aging color. The carving marks show lighter and newer colors, which can be seen with a magnifying glass. "

"In addition, there are Qin colors on this old jade. If you look carefully, you can see that one or two Qin lines have been cut off by carving marks, which proves that it is a new work of old jade."

Yuan Hongjian scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed. Sometimes he was just anxious. When he saw something good, he would have the idea to buy it. Just like this group of jade ribbon boards, he knew that he had no research on jade, but when he saw that jade materials should be old materials, plus the price of more than 1000 yuan, his resistance was not much.

However, just like people usually buy things, they want to buy them before they buy them, but they regret it after they buy them. When he spends money to buy this set of jade ribbon boards, he feels that he is reckless, so he runs to identify them. As a result, he really bought the wrong one.

Chuchen also knew yuan Hongjian's problem. He said with a smile, "elder, I think you'd better take one or two hundred with you when you come shopping. When you feel your eyesight is good, you can take more. Even if there is a loss, it can't be too big. Don't you think so?"

Yuan Hongjian said with a smile: "you have a good idea. I will take less money in the future. By the way, Mr. Chu, I heard that you are also very good at gambling. When I passed Juyuan Pavilion earlier, I saw that there seemed to be a trade fair there. Would you like to have a look? "Chu Chen was slightly stunned. After hearing what yuan Hongjian said, he remembered that today was the annual jadeite fair in juyuange. Lu Changshun had reminded him about it when he was recording a TV program, but there were so many things in these days that he forgot them for a moment.

In fact, the fair is a sales method for juyuange to clear its stock. At the fair, there are good woolens, but they only account for a small part of them. Most of the other woolens are actually selected from ordinary trading, and their quality can be imagined.

Nevertheless, juyuange's annual trade fair is still very lively. The biggest reason is that the price of raw materials at the trade fair is very low, and although these raw materials are poor, they are not brick materials. There is also a chance to produce high-grade jadeite.

What impresses Chu Chen most is that at the trade fair last year, a middle-aged man worked out a piece of Laokeng glass, which was bought by Lu Changshun at a price of 6.28 million. Stimulated by this, almost everyone at the scene bought at least one piece of wool.

At that time, the scene was so crazy that it seemed that he didn't want any money for wool. Influenced by this, Chu Chen also spent more than 2000 yuan to buy a piece of white sand skin. As a result, he opened a piece of dog dung land and lost all 2000 yuan.

Now that he knew that the fair was today, Chu Chen must have gone to have a look. He said with a smile, "I'll go there in a moment. Will you go, elder?"

Yuan Hongjian waved his hand and said, "I'm not interested in gambling stones, so I won't go."

"OK, I'll go..."

After telling Uncle Wu and others, Chu Chen went to Juyuan Pavilion and arrived at the gate of Juyuan Pavilion. As usual, it was a sea of people. Moreover, he thinks that it may be because of the influence of the solution of Laokeng glass last year, so there are a lot of people on the first day of this year's fair.

Generally speaking, the popularity of the first day of the fair must be the highest, because good wool appeared the most on the first day. Although Lu Changshun will distribute good wool into several days for sale according to the quantity of inventory, it is undeniable that the quality of wool in the next few days is not as good as that in the first day.

In fact, it's normal. The things you take out on the first day are not good. What's the guest's interest in patronizing?

Every trade fair, Juyuan pavilion's door is also full of wool, sometimes the weather is bad, but also put up a canopy, although this will affect the business of the surrounding shops, but Lu Changshun will be a man, usually do a good job with the neighborhood, and the management committee has also managed, there will be no problem.

Seeing what Lu Changshun was exchanging with his friends at the door, Chu Chen didn't come forward to say hello, but first looked at the wool outside.

Generally speaking, the quality of wool outside the door is not bad, and the reason is simple. If it's too good, the customer will walk into the store and find that the wool inside is not as good as that outside, so his desire to buy will be reduced.

If the quality of the wool outside is too poor, the customers will also think that the quality of the wool outside is so poor, how many good goods can you have inside?

Of course, there are also some things that are particularly eye-catching in the middle of woollen materials, such as the Big Mac near the door, a piece of yellow sand skin weighing nearly one and a half tons.

However, Chu Chen stepped forward and found that the yellow sand skin looked dry. This performance means that if there is jadeite in it, the seed is not old enough, the water is short, there are often violet colors, and there may be green beans, which means "spring with color". Occasionally meet with the emerald green purple tricolor or floating green tricolor.

Generally speaking, the jadeite produced by this kind of wool is mainly medium and low-grade, and the high-grade jadeite can't be produced.

Nevertheless, Chu Chen took out a magnifying glass and a flashlight and went forward to observe it carefully. He found that the wool sand was very thick. Although there were Python patterns and pine flowers, it seemed that the crystal was a little thicker. According to this performance, there was a great possibility that the middle and low-grade jadeite could be produced.

At last, Chu Chen used the ability again, and the result was almost the same. If someone bought it at the price of the wool, it would be a big loss.

Chuchen just put things stand up, Lu Changshun also just came over.

Both sides said hello with a smile. Lu Changshun asked, "Xiao Chu, what do you think of this wool?"

Chu Chen didn't answer directly. He said with a smile, "shopkeeper Lu, you must have a plan for this wool, right?"
