treasure hunt god pupil

Chapter 164

The warehouse of Beijing University is very large, and there are special employees working here.Li Mo followed the school leaders into the warehouse, and saw rows of steel-structured shelves filled with all kinds of things.

Each row and each floor has a clear number, and each item also has a unique number.

"The teaching props are placed in the second storeroom. Go straight in and go through this storeroom until there is a door to the end."

The staff in charge of warehouse management looked cautious, thinking that there was something wrong with their work, but a school leader led a team of security guards to kill him directly.

The second warehouse has a smaller space. It mainly stores various teaching props. In addition to hundreds of various porcelains, there are also many sculptures of different shapes on the shelves, and calligraphy and paintings in boxes. , and the Four Treasures of the Study.

In terms of area, it should be comparable to four ancient rhyme pavilions, and it should be a large antique shop.

"Li Mo, the things here are all purchased by Beijing University for teaching over the years, because there will be wear and tear every year, so the school will uniformly purchase a batch of spare replacements."

Dean Gao pointed to the two rows of porcelain shelves and said: "A lot of porcelains have been eliminated before, and I don't know if there are any real ones covered in dust. Li Mo, today we will accompany you to sort them out."

"Dean Gao, how many pieces of porcelain are there?"

Dean Gao looked at the warehouse management staff, she thought for a while and said: "I can't remember the exact number, but there must be more than 380 pieces of porcelain in this warehouse, and there are more than 100 damaged pieces in the third warehouse." There are more than [-] pieces of porcelain to be scrapped.”

It's too deceitful, if so many porcelains are identified by different pupils, it is estimated that the work will be over in ten minutes, but with a few people around, it will take a few days to identify each piece by hand.

Li Mo was a little depressed and felt like he was shooting himself in the foot with a stone. He decided to make a quick decision and not delay.

"Dean Gao, the flashlight and magnifying glass that student Li Mo needs are here." A security guard ran to the teaching building and took them from Professor Zhang's desk.

"Then I'll start."

Li Mo walked to a shelf with three floors in total, and he started to look at it from the top.If the flashlight shines on it, the ones that look like fakes will pass by directly, and if they look a little semblance, use the different pupils to look at them.

He took a step forward and moved forward slowly.

"Director You, what is he doing? Why don't you take a look at it, so that you can tell the truth at a glance?"

Director You had never seen him make a move before, so he was a little puzzled, but he just whispered: "The professors and experts in the history department all admire his ability to appraise treasures, so his eyesight is naturally stronger than we imagined. sharp."

Dean Gao nodded. Some people are born to eat this kind of food. Look at how much glory Li has brought to Peking University in just a few months. Now the research funding from the superior has been tilted toward the history department for three consecutive months. .

This month is estimated to be more, because Xiang Yu's treasure was born, and those professors stayed in Yuezhou like chicken blood and never came back, which made the teaching schedule at the beginning of the new semester a little tense.

"Hey, I did find one."

Li Mo moved over the small ladder, stepped up three steps, and moved down a blue and white plum vase from the top floor.

It took less than 3 minutes to find a real product. Dean Gao and the others cheered up and hurried to him.

"Li Mo, which dynasty's blue and white plum vase is this?" After all, Professor Zhang often comes into contact with antiques, so he still knows something about it.

Li Mo turned the bottom of the plum vase over, and everyone saw that there was a blue and white inscription on the bottom, made in the Yongle Year of the Ming Dynasty, with seal characters, six characters and two rows, standard official kiln bottom.

"Is this the Daming Yongle blue and white plum vase?"

Professor Zhang exclaimed.

"Professor Zhang, is this Yongle blue and white plum vase very precious?"

"It's very precious. I remember that there was an auction record for an authentic Yongle blue and white plum vase, worth nearly [-] million."

When Professor Zhang said this, both Dean Gao and Director You were not calm. They just identified a Ming Hongwu underglaze red jade pot spring vase worth 1.5 million, and now they found a Ming Yongle blue and white plum vase worth nearly 2 million. Are the current national treasure porcelains all Chinese cabbage?
Li Mo flipped through a few plum vases and looked at them with a flashlight, then motioned everyone to take two steps back.

"Silence."

He suddenly embraced the plum vase with his left arm, flicked his fingers with his right hand, and listened closely to the transmission of the sound in the vase.

"pity."

Li Mo let out a pity, which made a few people who were so frightened with ugly faces come back to their senses.

"Li Mo, is this plum vase a fake?"

Li Mo nodded, but then said: "You have probably heard of the case of the Nine Finger Thieves. The antique porcelain they imitated can be mistaken for the real one. It is definitely a masterpiece among modern handicrafts. The same is true for this plum vase, but it is not a modern one. Crafts, but fakes from the mid-Qing Dynasty."

"The case of the Nine Fingers Thief is naturally clear. The most important imitations they make are old and new porcelain."

Although Professor Zhang is not an expert in porcelain identification, he has discussed those cases with other professors.

"That's right, this plum vase uses the same method, old base and new porcelain, but the imitator is a skilled craftsman in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. Calculated, this plum vase has a history of more than 200 years."

Li Mo put the plum vase in Professor Zhang's hands and said, "If this plum vase is used in the society, it will be enough to sell it for a sky-high price. How to deal with it properly still needs to be carefully considered."

"Actually, I think this plum vase imitating Ming Yongle in the mid-Qing Dynasty is still of great historical significance. If it is displayed in a museum, it will also be a very good antique."

"Yeah, that's a better idea."

Dean Gao and Director You nodded again and again. Although the value is not as good as the genuine Ming Yongle plum vase, it can still be regarded as a handicraft in the middle of the Qing Dynasty, with high historical and artistic value.

"Bring me the safe, and put away this plum vase from the mid-Qing period."

Just at the beginning, he identified an antique with a twisted background, and the leaders who accompanied him suddenly became full of energy. Li Mo is really a treasure.

Li Mo took a flashlight and continued to search forward. There were more than 100 porcelains on the top shelf of the first row of shelves. After searching all of them, except for the imitation antique from the mid-Qing Dynasty, the rest were rubbish. None of the boutiques in modern handicrafts.

Next, he started to look for the second floor from the beginning, and he took photos one by one, shaking his head constantly. It seemed that finding one in the warehouse was considered a very good record.

As time passed, Li Mo began to search for the third floor, which would also be the bottom floor.There are quite a few large porcelains on the lower floor. It may be that the light on the top can't reach the bottom floor, so it looks a bit dark.

Especially those bulky porcelains, I might be afraid that they will be accidentally knocked over, so I stuffed them closer to the inside. If you don't use a flashlight to shine on them, you can't tell what style it is.

Li Mo squatted down and scanned them one by one with his flashlight. When he was in the middle, his light fell on a large bottle.

He looked at it for more than ten seconds, and the eyes of different pupils enveloped the past, and a light gray halo was transmitted from Da Ping's body, spreading out dozens of circles of light.

That large bottle is a genuine product from the late Qing Dynasty.
