wife's secret

Chapter 45

I was curious about what Mr. Lu could smell from the soil.

Seeing that Mr. Lu was angry, Ah Qiu hurried over.

"Aqiu, where did you get the soil in this pot?"

"I can't remember too clearly. It seems to be from Nanshan Taoist Temple."

"Who told you to go to Nanshan Taoist Temple to fetch soil?" Mr. Lu showed a contemptuous look on his face, "I know the origin of that Taoist temple. Twenty years ago, a guy who was obsessed with money built a Taoist temple in Nanshan. Fake Taoist priests tell people’s fortunes in that place and collect money. The soil in this kind of place is not only worthless, but also smells so violent that it almost kills people.”

"Arrogance?" Aqiu looked puzzled, "Could it be that you smell something from the soil?"

Mr. Lu stretched out his hand and pointed at the ground, "Look, what is that?"

While Aqiu looked at the ground, I, who was standing far away, followed his gaze.When I saw this, I couldn't help being startled, and saw a small tube of lipstick appearing in the soil scattered on the ground after the broken clay pot. Although it has been a long time, the packaging of the lipstick is still bright and sexy.

Aqiu leaned over to take a look, and murmured to himself in doubt, "How could there be this?"

"See clearly." Mr. Lu frowned and said, "This is what you got from the Nanshan Taoist temple."

Aqiu was puzzled, "How could there be such a thing in the Taoist temple?"

"What's so difficult to understand?" Mr. Lu said in a mocking tone, "There are no women in the places where real Taoist priests practice. This shows that the Taoist priests in Nanshan Taoist Temple are fake. He plays with women while telling fortunes and collecting money. So, it’s no surprise that there’s lipstick in there.”

Aqiu suddenly realized, "So that's how it is."

I saw this scene in my eyes, and I was speechless.This man named Mr. Lu can smell the lipstick that a woman used 20 years ago from the soil. This sense of smell is amazing.

Dunzi was dumbfounded, and after a long time came to his senses, he poked me secretly, and said in a low voice, "This is an expert. Brother, you have to get his nose right. It will be very helpful for you to identify antiques in the future." .”

I couldn't help shaking my head, the other party's kung fu is not easy to learn.

I already have a vague guess now.When Professor Zhou came to the stage holding the tower-shaped blue and white pot, Mr. Lu said it was an ominous thing, and he should have smelled something with his nose.

At this time, Mr. Lu suddenly remembered something, "Aqiu, when did you come back? Did Mr. Chen come with you?"

"I arrived at 03:30 by the high-speed rail. You were sleeping, so I didn't dare to disturb you. Mr. Chen is right here..." He pointed to me who was standing far away.

"Mr. Chen is here? Come quickly, please," Mr. Lu's face suddenly showed joy, and he walked towards me.He walked up to me in a few steps and grabbed my hand, "You are Chen Dadun's cousin Chen Yang, nice to meet you, nice to meet you..."

While speaking, he also saw Dunzi, "Brother Dadun is here too, very good, very good."

I politely replied: "It is my luck, Chen Yang, to know Mr. Lu..."

After shaking the opponent's hand for a while, I subconsciously pulled back.The opponent's hands were like chicken feet, long and hard, and felt piercing.

I twitched my hands too fast, which seemed very impolite, so I smiled embarrassedly.

Mr. Lu didn't care, he stared at me sharply, and asked, "I can tell that my bowl is a fake, and my level is not simple. Can you tell me, who is your master?"

I answered honestly, "I study archaeology, and I don't have a special teacher."

"So you are from the academic school, hehe." The other party showed a disapproving expression, shook his head slightly in disappointment, and then stretched out his hand to point to the side, "What do you think of my things?"

In fact, when I first came down, I saw it. Next to it was a shelf more than two meters high, which displayed a lot of antiques, which can be described as various.There are porcelain, vases, incense burners, and Buddha statues... I leaned closer, picked up something, and after a closer look, I was surprised.From my experience, the items are absolutely genuine and not old.It can be said that everything is worth a lot.

"There was a bowl, which was in the store at the time, and was spotted by Brother Dunzi, who bought it for 120 million yuan. Later, he took it back angrily and asked me to return it. I said whatever you want, put the things here, and you take the money and leave. .Your cousin did not retreat..."

"That bowl is my favorite work, the Ru Kiln Azure Glazed Bowl. It is no exaggeration to say that there are not many people in this world who can see its flaws..."

Having said that, he stared into my eyes, "How do you know it's a fake and not the real thing?"

I have already seen that this Mr. Lu is a very efficient person, straight to the point, without any idle talk.Ordinarily, I came all the way from the north to the south by high-speed rail, so he should at least say something polite, such as whether I am tired or how I was resting.However, this Mr. Lu did not speak nonsense.

The other party is straightforward, I don't think there is any need to hide it.I said: "The bowl is made of celadon, with exquisite workmanship. There are obvious crab claw patterns on it, and the texture of the glazed pieces is hairy. When you touch it, the glaze layer is thick and has a jade-like texture. Looking at Ru Kiln as a whole There is no doubt about the green glaze bowl. However, the soles of the feet are not right..."

I darkened the color of the sesame nails, which means that the white porcelain clay used is impure, which is incomparable with ancient times. I just saw the flaw from this detail.As soon as I finished speaking, Mr. Lu suddenly changed his expression and grabbed my arm, with a strange look in his eyes, and said in a trembling voice, "You, have you seen the eye of the horseshoe?"

I was startled by the other party's demeanor.What happened to the other party?
"I'm sorry, but I don't know who the horseshoe eye Mr. Lu is talking about."

Mr. Lu stared at me for a long time, seeing that I did not seem to be lying.A look of disappointment suddenly appeared on his face, he let go of my arm, raised his head and sighed, and said to himself, "Brother, where are you, where are you."

It can be seen that Mr. Lu has an unusual relationship with this so-called horse palm eye, and he should have had a life-threatening friendship.

Perhaps realizing that he had lost his composure, Mr. Lu smiled at me to express his apology. Then, he remembered something and asked Ah Qiu: "Is there a Taoist temple in Ningzhou City?"

"Yes." Aqiu responded, and then handed the plastic bag containing soil to Mr. Lu from his bag, "I went to the Taoist temple to see it. Although it is dilapidated, the ruins are still good. The soil was dug from that Taoist temple. here."

"Very good." Mr. Lu took the bag from Aqiu, opened it, impatiently put his nose close, and sniffed it seriously.

I couldn't help being a little impatient.

The purpose of my coming to the South is to hope that this expert surnamed Lu can provide some information, which can help in the investigation of the accident at the Hejude Auction House.Unexpectedly, this man held a bag of soil and sniffed it.
