"Wait!"
Just as chuchen was about to take the small jar up for observation, Zhao Heyan suddenly stopped it and said, "brother, you should be careful, in case this small jar is coated with some highly toxic substance?"
"Why are you talking so loud?"
Yiya said, "you think it's poisonous all day long."
"Anyway, there are no other people sitting here. It doesn't matter if you speak louder."
Zhao Heyan laughed and said, "besides, don't you think it's weird? Who knows whether the originator is a good person or a bad person, so I can't be too careful! "
Zhao Qirui nodded and said, "that's right. We really should be more careful. However, Xiaoyan, you are not careful in your observation. That young man touched this thing with his hand just now. If it was really poisonous, would he have had an attack? "
"What if he had taken the antidote in advance?" Zhao Heyan is eloquent.
"It's a waste of your brain not to write novels." Chuchen laughs.
"Be careful." Wu Ke persuades in the side, today's affair is really quite strange, again by Zhao Heyan such a say, she in the heart also can't help but worry.
"Well, I'll put on my gloves."
Chu Chen felt that it was unlikely to be dangerous. The reason was very simple. Things like antiques and handicrafts must be checked during security inspection. If there was a problem, it was unlikely that they would be in his hands.
Of course, if there is a conspiracy, everything can happen. Therefore, for his own sake and to reassure everyone, he took out a pair of white gloves from his pocket, put them on, and then picked up the blue and white VAT in the box to observe carefully.
The shape of the vessel is similar to that of the common jar, lip mouth, bulging abdomen, converging tibia, flat bottom and concave inside. Because of its petite size, it is actually a kind of writing tool to play with in the palm of the desk, and because of its shape, such as a jar, it is often used to place brushes or other study tools on the study furnishings and desk, so it is called a case jar, which is mainly seen around the Kangxi period.
The outer half of the foot end and the foot center are white glazed, and the inner half of the foot end has a ring of astringent embryo, forming a jade wall shaped bottom foot. The shape of the vessel is regular.
The inner wall of the tank is white glazed, the light is plain, and the outer wall is painted with blue and white patterns. In the picture, two fish are swimming leisurely in the river. Not far away, an Osprey is looking at them with soft eyes, forming a harmonious picture of safety.
The whole body is firm, fine and waxy, the glaze is smooth, the painting is smooth, and the drawing is fine. In light of these, it can be compared with the best blue and white stationery in Kangxi period.
However, it is a pity that this case jar is not a work of the Kangxi period, but a copy made recently, which can be seen from the clear fire light on the surface of the case jar.
In addition, Chu Chen is very familiar with the production process, its author is ready to come out, it must be Cai Jianxuan.
After telling everyone the result, Zhao Qirui frowned and said seriously, "what does he mean, provocation?"
"It should have that meaning." Chu Chen said: "however, I think there must be deep meaning in it, otherwise he would not have sent such a thing."
After thinking about it, we found that what Chu Chen said was reasonable. If the other party wanted to be provocative, it would be more convenient before they left, and it would not be as simple as sending a blue and white VAT.
"I think he's probably showing his strength."
Seeing that everyone looked at him, Wu Ke explained: "you think that since he can accurately know our itinerary and even know the flight clearly, he is proving that he has strong strength?"
We think it's reasonable, and when we think about it, it's incredible that the other party can track them all the time without their knowledge.
You know, no matter Zuo Shan or a Chao or their female bodyguards, they are all the elites among the elites. How high is the ability of the other party to track these people under their eyes?!
Thinking of this, Zuoshan frowned and looked back. But based on their experience, they were sure that no one was following them. Has the person following them been so superb in this respect? In any case, the people they protect are being followed, and their faces feel dull.
"I don't think it's possible to be followed..."
Chu Chen doesn't think so. If it's a person, it may be negligence, but if everyone doesn't find out, the probability is too small. Besides, even he didn't realize it. Is there anyone more powerful than him in the world? If there is such a person, it is not Cai Jianxuan can command the move, right?
To tell you the truth, we all don't believe that CAI Jianxuan has such a master among them, but how can their whereabouts be accurately grasped by the other party?
Chu Chen then said his thoughts: "and tracking is easy to find. If I were him, I would not do it. Therefore, I think it's more convenient to start from the air ticket. You know, there is still the profession of hacker in the world. "It's 2002, and the popularity and security of the Internet are different from today's more than ten years later. It's much easier for highly skilled hackers to steal information than later generations, and it's also more reliable than tracking.
Zhao Qirui clapped his hands: "yes! I made the reservation the day before yesterday, and they have a full schedule. "
Gao Yiya said: "in the end is not like this, to ask when the young man just drew the prize, not on the line!"
"I'll go." Zuo Shan quickly stood up and then asked, "would you like to bring him here?"
Chu Chen shook his head: "you just ask about the lottery, and let others deal with the rest after you return to Beijing."
He didn't intend to let the young man go, because no one knows if the young man is lying. Although it's not likely to happen from the perspective of ordinary people, what if the other person's idea is unreasonable? Therefore, when he goes back, he will ask people to investigate the young people secretly to prevent missing important clues.
After Zuoshan left, Chu Yulan looked at the case jar and asked curiously, "what does he mean by sending a case jar? It doesn't mean nothing, does it? "
We all think that it is impossible to have no meaning at all, but we can only guess what it means.
Zhao Heyan said: "since this thing is called the case jar, is there any allusion?"
Chu Chen shook his head: "this type of utensil is just a kind of stationery that was created and burned before and after the Kangxi reign. The reason why it is called the case jar is that it is placed on the case table, plus its shape, so it is called the case jar."
"Well, you can only guess the meaning of the painting."
Zhao Heyan, disappointed, carefully observed the blue and white pattern on the surface of the case jar and said: "this pattern is a little funny. The Osprey actually" kindly "looks at the two fish. Can the Osprey make friends with the fish! Eh Does Cai Jianxuan think we can make friends with him? "
"How could that be?" Chuchen smiles and shakes his head: "as long as he doesn't give up making fake to cheat people, then he and I are definitely at odds. In this case, how can he and I become friends?"
Hearing this, Zhao Heyan muttered, "what does this pattern mean?"
At this time, Chu Yulan expressed his own opinion: "I think what he wants to say is peace and order, right?"
Everyone was slightly stunned, and then reacted. Now this harmonious picture really means peace.
Zhao Qirui sneered: "Hey! Don't you want to say that you walk in your sunshine path and I cross my single wooden bridge? I won't let him be happy. Let's see what he can do! "
As soon as the voice fell, Zuo Shan came back.
Seeing this, Chu Chen asked, "what did he say?"
Zuoshan replied: "he really got the chance in the lottery the day before yesterday afternoon. The time he got the ticket was this morning. According to him, there were two winners together, but they didn't come together. He didn't know what happened."
After listening to these words, Zhao Qirui said with a smile, "I made the reservation that morning. It seems that, as ah Chen said, hackers may have stolen my reservation information."
"It's possible for an insider." Chu Chen added.
Everyone agrees. Anyway, as long as the other party doesn't follow them unconsciously, it will be very uncomfortable.
Zhao Qirui said angrily: "I'll ask someone to check it after I go back. What's the matter? It's so easy for people to check my reservation information. I think some of them don't want to do it!"
Zhao Heyan nodded and agreed, then said curiously: "by the way, since three people won the prize, why didn't they board together?"
Chu Yulan guessed: "I think it may be that he doesn't know whether we will board the plane or not. Those two may be backup candidates."
Everyone thought that Chu Yulan's guess was very reasonable, and Zuoshan's words also confirmed her guess. He said: "the young man also said that the other party had explained before he came. If we are not on this plane, this case can be handled by him."
Speaking of this, Zuo Shan suddenly thought of something: "by the way, he also said that the other side told him that if he met us, he would tell us that he hoped they would not have the chance to give gifts in the future."
Zhao Qirui sneered and said, "what do you mean? Does he hope that we can arrest him, or does he really hope that we can live in peace like the painting on this VAT? "
"Not to mention, he may have such an idea."
"Chen said:" this case may only have the meaning of "I think about it."
Zhao Qirui sniffed and said: "it's better to be able to live in peace, or don't blame him for rising? Hehe, this idea is really wishful thinking. "
Chuchen said with a smile: "their means are pretty good. First of all, let's think that the itinerary has been under their surveillance. Then we give a gift with" connotation "and let people give a warning. If it's a little timid, maybe we're really scared by them."Zhao Heyan asked, "if we can't guess the meaning of this case jar?"
Zhao Qirui said: "if you can't guess, you can't guess. Anyway, for him, as long as you bring the meaning to us and make us suspicious, you can achieve his goal. In fact, such a curfew doesn't have to be afraid of them at all. He only dares to do such tricks. If he really has the ability, he can do more when we are in Haojing. "
Gao Yiya reminded: "don't be careless, what if he comes to jump over the wall in a hurry?"
"What are you afraid of? If you have the ability, he will come!" Zhao Qirui seems to be indifferent, but he is still very concerned about this matter in his heart, thinking that after he goes back, he must strengthen security work. Of course, as the old saying goes, it's only a thousand days to be a thief, but not a thousand days to prevent thieves. The key is to uproot Cai Jianxuan's Gang as soon as possible.
Gao Yiya heard some dissatisfaction: "what are you saying, or to be an uncle!"
Zhao Qirui laughed: "you don't understand. It means that we should despise the enemy strategically and pay attention to the enemy tactically. If this group of rats who can't see the light are really stupid to come to revenge, we won't have to spend so much energy! "
Chuchen laughs. If the other party is really like what his uncle said, it would be good. But obviously, it's impossible. This can be seen from today's events. Even the expression is so obscure, as if he is afraid of causing the anger of himself and others. How can such people be impulsive when they do things?
Then again, Cai Jianxuan was a crafty man, otherwise he was already in prison, which would make trouble outside.
No matter all the way, chuchen and Zhao Qirui's family bid farewell at the airport, and then drove back to the villa.
When he got home, Chu Chen said hello to his parents and brought some gifts and the case to Liu's home, ready to report the matter to him.
"Well! It's really a group of people who can't see the light and do some things! " After listening to Chu Chen's story, old Liu's face also turned angry.
Chu Chen quickly advised: "master, there is no need to be angry with such people. Anyway, they dare not do anything extreme."
Old Liu shook his head: "you are wrong. Have you forgotten that Su changtou?"
"Er..." Chu Chen was stunned. He really forgot Su changtou just now. If they dare to kill Su changtou, no matter how crazy they are, they can do it.
Mr. Liu said with a smile: "well, don't worry too much. We are the capital after all. Unless they want to fight against the whole country, they won't be fooling around. However, if you go out of town, you should be more careful. "
"Well." Chu Chen nodded to show that he understood. However, he was very confident in his skills and sixth sense, so he was not worried about his own safety.
But his family is different, especially when he was shot at the beginning. So when he went back, he was ready to increase security measures for Wu Ke and his family, so that they would not regret the extreme situation.
"In a word, Cai Jianxuan's craftsmanship is getting better and better." Mr. Liu picked up the case and sighed while appreciating it.
Chu Chen also nodded his head and said yes, because this case is not only lack of style knowledge, but also has some features that have not been published for a long time, and there are few details that are different from the real one. Besides, it is almost the same as the blue and white ware of Kangxi period.
If you add a sense of money to this case, then deal with the anger and sell it in the market, not to mention the ordinary buyers, even the experienced experts have to look into it. Before that, Cai Jianxuan's level of counterfeiting was not so high.
How long has Cai Jianxuan made such great progress? If he continues to develop like this, Chu Chen worries that in the near future, even he can only use his powers to identify the authenticity of things. If there is such a day, the antique ceramic market will certainly collapse.
as like as two peas, they may say that since they have done the same thing as genuine products, they will be regarded as genuine products. In a short period of time, there will be no problem, but antiques can't come out of thin air, and there are several high-end antiques. In the long run, some people will surely find some tricks in them. When the statistics are made, won't they show up?
Chen can't help but ask: "even if he is in a hurry, what can he do to help Chu?"
Seeing this, Mr. Liu laughed and said, "my old arms and legs can still move. Just take care of yourself."
"But..."
As soon as Chu Chen opened his mouth, Liu interrupted directly: "don't be a policeman. How much help can you do? Don't forget, you have more important things to do
"What's more important?"
"Silly boy, do you forget that you are getting married?"
"Hey, hey!" Chuchen scratched his head and giggled.
At this time, Mr. Liu pointed to several boxes beside him and said, "come and have a look at these things."Chu Chen took the box closest to him and opened it to see that it was a blue and white jar with Gaoshi pattern.
When the jar was in hand, he first observed the bottom of the pot. There was a double line six character script in the blue and white columns, which was "the year system of Daming Chenghua". The font looked a little crooked. Careful observation shows that the turning point of the pen is slightly slow, and the drilling material will be concentrated when the pen stops. This time it looks like the real one.
After reading the book, Chu Chen began to observe the whole. The jar has straight mouth, short neck, full shoulder, round abdomen, adduction, flat bottom and round feet. There are veins on the cover of lotus leaf, the lion button on the top, and the slender banana leaf pattern around the shoulder, which is in sharp contrast to the lotus petal on the foot.
The belly of the pot is painted with nine high-ranking scholars, playing chess, watching scenery, walking and chatting in the courtyard. The elegant and elegant characters are the true portrayal of the literati class at that time.
It has always been said that there are no big utensils in Chenghua because of the small utensils made in Chenghua official kiln. This can is not only huge in shape, but also extremely difficult to preserve. All the covers and buttons are intact. If it is a real utensil, it is indeed a rare one among the handed down utensils.
It should be said that the blue and white pots made in Chenghua of Ming Dynasty were imitated in Yongzheng official kilns of Qing Dynasty, the Republic of China and modern times. In recent years, there are many imitators, and the color and pattern of blue and white are also successfully imitated, but they can't reach the level of authentic figures.
The figures painted by modern imitations are stiff and dull, losing the elegant charm.
But obviously, the figure of this blue and white pot is very lifelike, which is no different from the real one. In addition, there are no problems in the body, glaze and green material. Chu Chen can't immediately judge whether it is true or not.
The reason why Chu Chen felt that there was something wrong with this blue and white pot was not that Liu would definitely teach him a fake now, but that he felt that the blue and white pot was different from his collection in terms of green materials, but the difference was not obvious, so he was hesitant.
"By the way, there is also Baojiang."
Since there are subtle differences in the green materials, Chu Chen started with the coating. The coating on the surface of this blue and white can seems to be quite natural, but after careful experience, he felt that there was something wrong with the handle, which made him immediately think of the coating liquid, so he took the method of identifying the coating liquid for identification.
Although the result confirmed Chu Chen's conjecture, it also surprised him: "master, is this the upgraded version of Baojiang liquid?"
Mr. Liu nodded: "yes, what do you think?"
Chu Chen said solemnly: "in addition to the difference between the hand feeling and the refraction of light and the real slurry, other aspects are completely enough to confuse the true with the false, and the refraction of hand feeling and light is much better than before. If such a thing is listed, it can make 90% of the buyers at least be fooled."
"Moreover, judging from the craftsmanship and other aspects of the object, it is likely that it was made by Cai Jianxuan?"
Mr. Liu pointed to a box beside him and said, "it's really made by Cai Jianxuan. Compare it with this box again to see how much progress he has made."
Inside the box is also a blue and white lotus leaf lid jar with Gaoshi pattern in Chenghua period. However, the lid has been repaired. From various details, it should be genuine. However, for the sake of caution, Chu Chen also used his powers, and the results also confirmed his judgment.
Then Chu Chen put two blue and white cans together for comparison, and found that there were some subtle differences between the fake and the real one on the blue and white hair color. In addition, what surprised Chu Chen even more was that 90% of the fake was the same as the real one.
After a while, Mr. Liu asked, "how's it going?"
Chu Chen some exclamation said: "I can only say that he is really too powerful!"
Liu Lao Wen Yan sighed a long time, then patted the table and said angrily, "why do such people go astray?"
"Master, don't be angry."
Chu Chen quickly advised a few words, and then said: "people's greed is endless, otherwise there will be no lack of people's heart, snake swallow elephant said. What we should do now is to put him in a cage so as not to harm others. "
"It's true that heaven's evils can still be forgiven, and self inflicted evils can't live." Old Liu sighed and said, "open the other boxes again."
According to his words, Chu Chen opened the other two boxes, which also contained blue and white porcelain. One was the Kangxi official kiln, and the other was the Qianlong official kiln. The performance was the same as that of the blue and white pot just now, which was enough to confuse the real with the fake.
After looking at the two objects, Chu Chen frowned and said, "what I'm most worried about now is actually the improved version of the slurry. After all, it's not easy to make high imitation porcelain, but it's easy to make slurry."
Mr. Liu waved his hand with a smile: "you don't have to worry about that. This kind of slurry has just been developed, and it should not have been known by Cai Jianxuan."
"What's going on?" Chu Chen was very surprised to hear that Baojiang liquid was developed abroad. Now that they have improved it, it will surely come to CAI Jianxuan sooner or later, unless someone else prepared it.Liu explained: "yes, it's true that, as you think, the slurry was actually prepared by a member of their gang by accident..."
It turned out that during the period of investigation, those investigators also grasped many clues, so they raided a dens in a raid.
The three pieces of blue and white porcelain were collected in that dens, and the slurry was prepared by the person in charge of this dens. Originally, he saw that the effect was very good, and he was ready to send out the formula. Unexpectedly, he was caught.
Liu old some palpitation said: "also thanks to this action is more timely, otherwise we this profession's prospect is worrying!"
