Live Appreciation, Congratulations to Brother

Chapter 209 Relatives and friends gather together

"What level am I? Do I need to tell lies?"

After being spoken to by Teacher Yan, Baoyou's tone gradually became more serious.

To prove that he was of high class, he put his hands on his hips and showed off the belt around his waist.

The belt buckle is a big "H" - this is the old Hermès model, [-].

He is still a stubborn old man with some family background.

But this is normal. After all, Teacher Che’s fees are listed there. You really can’t hire him without spending some money.

According to the situation introduced by Mr. Cheng before, the appraisal fee for an expert like Che Lijun is at least [-] yuan per time.

Including the cost of examination and issuance of certificate.

Zhang Yang was curious, how would Che Lijun handle this situation now?

On one side are old customers who have spent money with him, and it seems that they may even be regular customers.

What if you just turn against the person and your "reputation" is ruined?
Teacher Yan on the other side is a good partner. If he doesn’t have a good relationship, it’s impossible for him to come to this event, and it’s impossible for Che Lijun to invite him.

If he is offended, Teacher Che will lose a friend in the circle and gain an enemy who knows everything about him.

Soon, Che Lijun who was at the bronze appraisal station hurried over.

He first glanced at the things on the table, and then at the old man who came to appraise them. The expression on his face was quite calm.

But the look in his eyes revealed that he knew Baoyou.

"It's broken. It's not a problem for him."

Zhang Yang knew from the look on Teacher Che's face that he already had a solution.

Sure enough, a heartwarming scene happened at the scene.

Che Lijun stepped forward in surprise and joy, and grabbed Baoyou's hand:

"Third Uncle, why are you here?"

Third uncle?

The melon eaters and theatergoers were stunned.

"Teacher Che, you..." Baoyou wanted to explain, but was forcibly interrupted.

"Uncle, don't say that. What kind of teacher am I in front of you?"

Che Lijun patted the back of the old man's hand affectionately and said:

"Just call me Xiaojun."

Teacher Yan behind him saw this heartwarming scene and naturally thought that the old man might really be a relative of Che Lijun.

The onlookers had similar thoughts.

Because the two uncles and nephews were soon reminiscing about the last time they met.

[Recognizing relatives on the spot, is there such a thing? 】

[Do you really think they are relatives?]

[My guess is that Mr. Che was afraid of disappointing his relatives, so he deliberately told the false things to be true]

[Shit, this Che Lijun is an expert in collecting money to issue certificates]

The people at the scene stopped arguing, but the barrage in Zhang Yang's live broadcast room started to quarrel.

This also shows in disguise that Che Lijun's play was very successful.

Zhang Yang guessed that there was an 80% chance that this person was not Mr. Che’s third uncle.

Because the two of them are actually about the same age.

It's just that Che Lijun took good care of himself, and the old man who appraised treasures happened to be bald early, so he looked like he was a generation behind.

In fact, it may be a 58-year-old treasure appraisal expert and a 38-year-old retired programmer.

Zhang Yang's suspicion was confirmed in the following days.

Because of the audition for the treasure appraisal activity in just one week, Teacher Che’s third uncle, second aunt, eldest cousin, sixth aunt, fourth uncle... and other relatives came to the scene one after another.

It’s not like I was attending Che Lijun’s funeral, how could it be such a coincidence!

What's even more coincidental is that the "recognition" scenes all happened after they named each other and said that the fakes in their hands were authentic ones that Che Lijun had authenticated.

One of them, an older cousin with a Uighur accent, hugged Teacher Che’s shoulders and complained with tears streaming down her face:
"Teacher, you must testify to me in front of everyone."

"My certificate is not forged, and my things are genuine..."

When encountering this kind of thing, other experts feel like a mirror.

But they and Che Lijun have a community of interests, so there is no need to expose him face to face.Teacher Yan also helped them figure out how to deal with it afterwards.

After seeing off Teacher Che and his third uncle.

Teacher Yan preached to the treasure friends present:

"For our event, if you have an appraisal certificate from the experts here, you should first go to the corresponding expert to prove that your certificate was indeed issued by me."

"Nowadays, some criminals are using forged certificates to defraud money. Everyone must keep their eyes open!"

As soon as he said this, the number of people in line in front of him suddenly decreased by one-fifth.

"Are all fakes sold with certificates now?" Zhang Yang murmured curiously.

Chen Yanguang, who was present at the scene, had a strange thought after listening to it.

He pulled Chu Ziqiang up and said:

"Come on, let's go find Mr. Che for appraisal. He must have a lot of fun there."

……

The eldest brother on the list follows his words.

When there was only one person left before it was their turn to appraise, happiness came unexpectedly.

The collector in front of them took out a bronze elephant statue from the pile of scrap newspapers in the suitcase.

The bronze elephant statue is similar to the owl statue that Zhang Yang had seen before. It is actually a wine glass in the shape of an animal.

Baoyou, this one is an elephant after all, much larger than an owl.

Unless you are a strong man in ancient times, it is impossible to drink from it.

"My dear collector, this is a modern handicraft."

As a bronze expert, Che Lijun was still very reliable even though the money was confiscated.

Then, he faced the camera and explained to viewers who may see this program in the future:

"Bronze elephant statues like these with Kui dragon patterns and animal face patterns on them imitate the shapes of Shang Dynasty vessels."

"This Tibetan friend is missing a very important part, the ivory..."

During Che Lijun's explanation, the Tibetan friend who came for the appraisal remained silent.

The collector even thoughtfully asked at the end:
"Are you finished?"

"Ah, that's it." Che Lijun nodded and looked at his Tibetan friend: "Do you still have any concerns?"

"One thing." The Tibetan friend said with a serious face: "I have you, Mr. Che, here. When you were interviewed by the TV station in 18, the reporter wrote the report."

As he spoke, the Tibetan friend casually grabbed a scrap newspaper from the suitcase.

The date above shows that this is indeed an issue of an antique journal published in June 18.

The Tibetan friend found the location of the "report" in his mouth, pointed at it and read:

"Look, what you were talking about at that time was that the green patina of Shang and Zhou bronzes has a warm color and a uniform and delicate texture, giving people the feeling of being thickly wrapped."

"Isn't the green patina on my elephant statue not moisturizing?"

In order to prove that he was telling the truth, the Tibetan friend turned around and showed Chen Yanguang behind him:
"Young man, are you filming a funny video or live broadcast? Come on, come on, just be a witness."

"Look, is this an interview with Teacher Che Lijun?"

"He said that the identification of bronzes is to look at the patina, which is the identification card of antiques."

"Anyone who denies cultural relics based on their shape is just a layman."

[Slap in the face]

[The boomerang scratched myself]

[So is this thing real or fake?]

"Of course it's a replica." Zhang Yang told the audience in the live broadcast room while cracking melon seeds: "The rust of this elephant is not right."

"It's not moisturizing at all, but it's very dry."

"It should be soaked in horse urine."

Che Lijun, who was at the scene, made a similar judgment and believed that the green rust was forged from the excrement of certain animals.

Zhang Yang originally expected that this Tibetan friend would pick off some green rust and put it in front of Che Lijun's nose to let him taste it.

Unexpectedly, the Tibetan friend was very calm and had no intention of refuting.

Instead, he asked in front of everyone:
"Just tell me, how much does it cost now for you to issue a certificate for this thing to me?"
