Chapter 51

In the reception room, Wang Guosheng told Zhang Yang about Tang Cai's case:

The thing is indeed an old craftsman in Mengjin, and it was copied according to the original.

Before the suspect came to Zhang Yang Jianbao, the things had already been imitated.

However, that veteran craftsman was half buried in the ground, and his legal awareness was very weak. He didn't even leave the information of the person who hired him to make fakes. He only had an account for making money.

If it wasn't for someone who just wanted to ship this thing out of the country, I don't know when it will be discovered.

Wang Jianye has already synchronized this information with the police, and the official replied that there is great hope that the case will be solved.

As for the plum bottle from the Cizhou kiln, Master Wang showed Zhang Yang a document—the thermoluminescence test report issued by the Oxford Appraisal Center.

Prove that something is indeed a modern or modern imitation.

"This thing has caught the attention of many people!" Master Wang said with a smile.

According to him, two of the three porcelain appraisal experts at Linhai Auction House thought the thing was correct.

In addition to Wang Guosheng who raised doubts, the two sides drew [-]-[-], so they had to do it in one step and sent it abroad for testing.

After the results came out, the people from the auction house sent a message to Wang Jianye overnight, apologizing and refunding the money.

"Then it has been found out, who sent the fake goods for auction?" Zhang Yang asked curiously.

"It's a folk collector from out of town. He spent money to take pictures from abroad." Master Wang explained.

"It turned out that it was returned from overseas, and exported to domestic sales." Zhang Yang sighed casually.

After he finished speaking, Wang Jianye's expression suddenly changed slightly.

Because the gold-plated Buddha statue was also brought back from overseas.

Director Wang was afraid that his uncle would be reminded by this sentence, so he hurriedly tried to interrupt.

"Hey, uncle, didn't you say you have something to show Zhang Yang?" Wang Jianye reminded somewhat abruptly.

"Yeah, I almost forgot."

"Come on, Zhang Yang, take a look at this blue and white porcelain vase first."

Master Wang took out a small [-]cm high vase from the box and handed it to Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang didn't understand what this meant, but Jianbao had an occupational disease, so after taking it, he subconsciously looked at it first.

There are four big blue characters written on the bottom: "Kangxi year system".

"Item Information" shows that this is a new work from last year.

"How is it?" Master Wang asked.

"This should be a modern imitation."

"anything else?"

"What else? What else?" Zhang Yang looked puzzled.

Master Wang didn't speak, just smiled, and handed Zhang Yang a plastic card with the following words written on it:

[Appraisal results: the painting process is rough, and the blue and white color is floating; the tire is made by the molding process, the tire quality is rough and loose, and the traces of polishing and aging are obvious; the traces of style tracing are obvious; it is identified as a contemporary imitation]

Zhang Yang understood what Master Wang meant after seeing half of it.

It's still the same thing I talked to him before:

Zhang Yang's appraisal is sometimes like "a tree without roots, and water without a source". Although there is no error in the truth or falsehood, it always lacks some basis.

Now it's better for him to say something about appraising jade, because that's all there is to it.

But when it comes to porcelain, calligraphy and painting, it is easy to expose his lack of knowledge reserves.

"Teacher Wang, I want to learn this too, but not so fast." Zhang Yang smiled wryly.

"Don't worry, don't worry, you have the right to think that I, an old man, have troubles, and remind you."

"You take it back and put it on the table as a decoration."

"The main gift I want to give you today is this."

Master Wang smiled and pushed a red box over.

"This is?"

Zhang Yang opened the box with doubts and expectations.

On the yellow brocade, there is a small bowl with white glaze inside and red glaze on the outside.

Just by looking at the color, you can tell that even if something is not real, it must be a high imitation.

Zhang Yang took out the bowl and looked at it carefully.

The "item information" shows that although the bottom of the bowl says "Great Qing Qianlong Years", the real age is actually Daoguang.

And it is the official kiln of Daoguang.

"How about this?" Master Wang waited for Zhang Yang to look at it for a while before asking.

"It is Daoguang's imitation of Qianlong's official kiln."

"That's right." Master Wang nodded, pointed to the glaze on the outer wall of the bowl and asked, "Then what kind of red is this?"

which red?
Zhang Yang had just taught himself the knowledge of red glaze not long ago. He remembered that red glaze is divided into Langyao red, cowpea red, coral red, carmine red, Ji Hong and so on.

The bowl in front of me has no white edges, and the glaze is very smooth, without cracks, very similar to the cheapest Jihong glaze.

Thinking about it again, this thing was given to him by Master Wang for free, so it was basically the same.

"This should be the Jihong Bowl."

"it is good!"

As soon as Zhang Yang finished speaking, Master Wang immediately applauded.

"Although it's not difficult to tell the difference between Ji Hongyao, but you are considered a monk halfway, and you can tell so quickly that this thing is given to you, and it is considered a gift to the right person." Wang Guosheng stroked his long beard with a smile.

"This is so embarrassing. Teacher Wang, I can still see Yuan Qinghua." Zhang Yang said jokingly.

"Hahaha, you boy, I don't have Yuan Qinghua to send you here."

"However, Zhang Yang, are you interested in working part-time as a museum researcher with us?"

part time?

Master Wang's words made Zhang Yang somewhat puzzled.

If the donation of Jihong Bowl worth tens of thousands of dollars is a thank you for helping him discover the plum vase of the Cizhou kiln, then what is there to thank for the part-time researcher?

Could it be the "compensation" that Wang Jianye said before?
Zhang Yang subconsciously looked at the curator Wang next to him, and was surprised to find that Wang Jianye also looked puzzled.

He obviously just found out about it.

"Young man, at such a young age, how can you look forward and backward." Wang Guosheng raised his eyebrows: "You help me see such a big problem in Cizhou Kiln. If my old man doesn't thank you, how can he feel at ease?"

"Isn't the position of this researcher just enough to make your live broadcast persona perfect? ​​Don't worry, I won't let you worry about the museum. We have hired many professional appraisers."

"Then this bowl?" Zhang Yang pushed the box back a little.

"I want to ask you for a favor." Master Wang suddenly sighed: "You know, we are a private museum, and we cannot maintain such a large booth just by the revenue from tickets."

"So sometimes, I also do things like picking up leaks and reselling them."

"Every year at this time, people will be sent to various antique markets, and sometimes they will go to the flea markets in the countryside."

"But this year, my health has obviously deteriorated too much. I'm afraid I won't be able to persist, so I want to find you..."

"What about the rest of the museum?" Zhang Yang asked.

"They are all researchers in public museums, and they are only part-time jobs here. If they find a leak, they will hand it over to the public museum." Wang Jianye helped explain.

"And we have a lot of special channels, the chances of finding the real thing will be higher." Wang Guosheng added.

Special channel, sounds attractive.

"Yes, yes, but I have a request. If there is a big leak, I will secretly buy it myself. Is it okay?"

"No need to be secretive, you bought it, just let us sell it for you." Wang Guosheng replied with a smile.
