Of course, it's impossible for Chu Chen to tell Jude that the interest on the money he owed has been removed. Otherwise, how can he complete his scheduled plan?
For Jia Decai, Chu Chen is very satisfied with helping to solve this problem. Otherwise, if he returns the money after he has disposed of these antiques, it will not only be the interest as originally agreed.
As a result, Judd quickly assured with a smile on his face: "Chu Shao, you can rest assured that these things are gifts given to my father by others. There will be no problem!"
"I hope so." Chuchen nodded faintly, then motioned to Jude to take things out.
Jia De Cai hurriedly picked up a huge trunk from the side, carefully placed it on the table, took the top cipher lock, and opened the suitcase. Only four boxes of different sizes were placed inside the box. The boxes were full of foam sponge and other stuffing around it, which should play a role of shockproof.
Next, Judd put the boxes one by one in front of chuchen and opened them.
In the first box, there is a white jade ring.
Zaben was an ancient utensil for bailing water when washing. It was shaped like a ladle. It first appeared in the middle of the Western Zhou Dynasty and was popular in the late Western Zhou Dynasty and the spring and Autumn period.
It is carved from Shanghao Hetian jade, and its shape is similar to that of ancient bronze. The narrow side is the flow, the wide side is the handle, the upper part is the mouth, the front is convex and the rear is convex, the protruding part is the flow, the middle part is the abdomen, and there is no ornamentation; the bottom bears three breast shaped feet.
It is a typical antique style cup. The jade is of high quality, exquisite carving, elegant shape and perfect appearance. It belongs to the fine antique jade carving of the palace craftsman in the early Qing Dynasty.
However, although the quality of this jade is good, it is only ordinary Hetian jade, and the carving is far less than the craftsmanship of the palace building office in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. In terms of the current market value, it is only one or two thousand.
In the second box, there is a string pot. The pot is wide with round lips, straight neck, smooth shoulders, bulging belly, converging shins, with symmetrical oblate high ring feet, slightly turning outward. The belly of the pot is drooping and the center of gravity is low and stable. There is a pair of symmetrical double flat square ears on the neck, which can be decorated in time, and can also be used to tie strings.
This pot foot ridge shows the fetus, the fetus is delicate and firm, the fetus color is iron red and gorgeous. The whole machine is round and smooth, the tire repair is regular, and the technology is exquisite. And the whole body is only 11 cm or 2 cm high, which can be regarded as a detail of a small piece, which Chu Chen liked very much.
However, this was not much. What made chuchen feel more rare was that the whole body of the ware was covered with red rust glaze.
Rust glaze is a kind of high temperature iron crystal glaze, crystal glaze is a kind of artificial crystal glaze, if combined with color glaze properly, it has a unique artistic effect. For example, similar to the natural "crystallization" phenomenon in nature, there are a variety of crystal types, such as flower like, flower cluster like, mica like, rhombic shape, duckweed like and geometric shape and so on.
The chrysanthemum like crystal has a three-dimensional sense because of its different ability of reflecting light in all directions. It looks like a blooming chrysanthemum. Imagine the same, if this kind of crystal glaze ceramic tile inlaid in the indoor walls and floors, it in the light, how wonderful beauty?
And if the crystal in the shape of a star with sky blue color, its glaze seems to be full of stars in the blue sky.
Therefore, if we can choose the appropriate crystal glaze (crystal size, shape, color) for decoration of different varieties and types, it can receive an artistic effect that artificial color decoration cannot.
As a matter of fact, as far back as the Song Dynasty, China had the germination of crystalline glaze. At that time, the famous products such as "Tianmu" and "xingzhan", as well as the colored glaze microcrystalline products produced by Jizhou kiln, such as minhao, hawksbill shell flying oil drops and partridge spots, are considered to be the earliest crystalline glaze products in the world.
For example, the iron embroidered glaze used in this string pot is also the main variety of crystal glaze. The glaze is crystal clear, with strong iron sand texture; the glaze color is bright, rich and elegant; the glaze layer is thick and moist, with the feeling of frosting. Local traces of rust spots, color, texture can be confused, really refreshing.
Moreover, from the aspects of the shape, glaze and technological characteristics of the pot, as well as the "Yongzheng year system" four characters and two lines without ring frame Yangwen inscription on the bottom, it should be a genuine official kiln in the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty.
Moreover, because of the complex process conditions, the stability of the product is not high, and the size and position of the crystal are difficult to control. Therefore, such a perfect appearance, exquisite workmanship of Yongzheng official kiln rust glaze can be said to be very rare, of course, the value is not cheap, Chu Chen estimated that the market value should be around 150000.
Seeing the things in the third box, Chu Chen immediately became excited. The thing was nothing else, just the pair of color candlesticks he was longing for.
After calming down his excitement, Chu Chen directly picked up the candlestick and used the power. The result also made him quite satisfied. The rest of the treasure map was really hidden in the candlestick.
Chen Dechen asked, "why is it strange to see the candlestick? Is there a problem with the candlesticks? "
Before Chu Chen could respond, Jia Decai shook his head and said, "how can this be? This pair of candlesticks was given to my father by a very good friend on his birthday. It can't be fake!"Chen Dewang is very grateful for Chu Chen's help. Under such circumstances, how can he let Chu Chen buy a fake? So he glared at Judd, took a candlestick to his hand for identification, and said, "who told you that the gift must be good? It's something that Chu Shao wants, and it needs to be carefully identified! "
After listening to what Chen Dewang said, Jia did not dare to say any more. Now he knows Chu Chen's identity. If the things he sold to Chu Chen were fake, the consequences would be much more serious than now.
In fact, the most important thing for Chu Chen is to find the rest of the treasure map. Now even if the candlestick is a fake, he will buy it at the price of the real one.
Although Chen Dewang is well intentioned to do so now, there will undoubtedly be some variables for him. For example, after Chen Dewang discovers that something is a fake, he won't let him buy it. That's not what he wants.
Although Chen Dewang and Chen Dewang have had decades of experience, they can't see that it's a fake candlestick.
So, after seeing the candlesticks, Chen Dewang shook his head and sighed, "to be honest, the man who made the candlesticks is really an expert, but he obviously didn't do enough homework. He put some of the characteristics of Yongzheng doucai into Qianlong doucai."
Chu Chen nodded on the surface, but thought to himself that Chen was wrong this time. It wasn't that Zhang huoni didn't do enough homework, but that he made it on purpose. Of course, only those who have read the notes will know this.
For jadecai, who was in urgent need of money, this result was obviously not what he expected, and it was hard to believe. He said, "uncle, you are wrong. How can this be false?"
"Can I be wrong about that?" Chen Dewang snorted coldly: "look at these candlesticks, no matter in color or pattern, the design is more delicate than before, the color is thinner, and the tone is very soft and elegant. And this... "
Chen Dewang solved the problem again. Jia was dubious when he heard about it. At last, Chu Chen thought so. He accepted the reality helplessly.
Chu Chen said: "in fact, I don't think this pair of candlesticks is good for nothing, and they should be imitated in the period of the Republic of China. It's good to buy them as decorations."
When Chen Dewang saw Chu Chen saying this, he mistakenly thought that Chu Chen wanted to help him and advised Chu Chen not to buy. But because Jia was nearby, if he said this, he might make Jia feel dissatisfied, so he didn't say much. But when he saw the suspicious color in Judd's eyes, it made him angry.
In front of this scene, Chu Chen also found out. He sighed in his heart that this was the variable he was worried about just now. But now, he had to be reasonable. By the way, he threatened Jude with his own identity. He said, "Mr. Jia, you don't think I cheated you when I got along with your uncle?"
"No, no! No matter what I do, I won't believe you! " Jia Decai quickly shook his head, but Chu Chen and Chen Dewang are old-fashioned, which can not see his right and wrong.
Chuchen laughed and said, "Mr. Jia, if you don't believe me, you can let others identify this pair of candlesticks first, and we'll trade in the future."
As he spoke, a fierce color flashed in his eyes, which made him shiver.
But for Jia Decai, the wealth represented by these candlesticks is obviously not what he is in urgent need of money now. For a moment, he seems very hesitant. Should he sell things to Chu Chen at the price of imitation in the period of the Republic of China?
Seeing this, Chen Dewang was furious. He showed his intention to Chu Chen and pulled Jia Decai aside. First, he cursed him in a low voice. Then he suppressed his anger and said, "Xiao Cai, do you think I should cheat you for this money? Besides, even if you don't know how to identify antiques, can't you tell the truth of the reason I just said? "
Judd just bowed his head and didn't speak. He said in his heart, "who knows if you say it's true or not?"
When Chen Dewang saw Jia's appearance, he knew what he was saying now, and Jia would not believe it. He sighed and said, "since you don't believe it, you can go to the antique market and ask yourself. But now you refuse Chu Shao. You must give a discount on other things. As for the reason, you should know. "
Chen Dewang mistakenly thinks that chuchen just wants to help, so he thinks that it doesn't matter if Jude doesn't sell the candlesticks, and it's very worthwhile to give chuchen a discount on the price.
