Live appraising treasures, I became a national treasure expert?

Chapter 200 Rayon
The secretary also knew that he was getting carried away, so he controlled his emotions a little: "The error of carbon-14 is larger, sometimes more than hundreds of years, but the error of thermal spectrum is only about 100 years.

Since the laboratory determined that the silk was over a hundred years old, it means that the actual age was at least 200 years ago.Calculating the time, doesn’t it happen to be the Qianlong period?Therefore, it cannot be machine-woven anyway..."

Not only the secretary had this idea, but also several deputies, professors specially invited from Liaoning University and Dongda University, and all the researchers present.

The dean sighed.

He also felt that there must be no problem with the map, but this was before calling Wang Yongqian.

Although the two sides were not happy because of the Mahuluo incident, they still became familiar with each other.So as soon as the incident happened, the dean contacted Wang Yongqian and wanted to ask the experts from the advisory group to take a look.

But Wang Yongqian said that the consultants were unwilling to come because Li Ding'an was too familiar with them and could easily be misunderstood that they were engaging in malpractice for personal gain.Then he said that to be on the safe side, he had better find a textile expert to take a look.

What do you mean?
Both the consultant and Wang Yongqian were completely inclined to Li Ding'an's conclusion: there was something wrong with the map.Otherwise, there would be no talk of favoritism, and the Forbidden City would even be asked to find textile experts.

This is very illustrative of the problem: they are all authoritative scholars with a national reputation, so they can't just follow a young man's nonsense, right?
At this point, no matter how solid he was, he couldn't help but be suspicious, so he insisted on re-appraisal and even invited the old leader...

After thinking about it, he raised his waist slightly and said, "It's better to be more cautious...Old leader, I'm sorry to bother you!"

"it is good!"

The old man stood up, and the librarians and professors surrounding the map immediately moved out of the way.

The secretary handed over the magnifying glass again, but the old man shook his head: "No need!"

Play a thousand tunes and then the sound will dawn, watch a thousand swords and then recognize the weapon.After working in weaving for most of his life, he doesn't even need to look at it with his eyes. He can tell what material it is and what technology is used by touching it with his hands.

The map is very large, [-] meters high and [-] meters wide, but the area in Kaifeng is only the lower right corner, and the length and width are both about ten centimeters.The old man touched it first, then lifted up the corner and twisted it with his fingers.After twisting it a few times, he used his nails to pick up the silk stubble left after sampling.

Then, he picked up a piece of silk thread and looked at it carefully.

At this glance, it lasted nearly 10 minutes.Although he didn't speak, his brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

Everyone also became worried: Is there really a problem?

While he was still confused, the old man nodded vigorously: "It's split silk... no problem, authentic Jiangnan brocade, using wooden machine sewing techniques, purely hand-woven..."

"call……"

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the wind seemed to be blowing in the venue.

The secretary clapped his hands excitedly: "Haha, did everyone hear it?"

Of course I heard it, and heard it very clearly.

Now, what else does the man named Li Ding'an have to say?
Everyone was thinking similar thoughts, with excited expressions and flushed faces.

The dean pinched his chin: "But Director Wang's attitude is so strange: does it feel like he is [-]% sure of Li Ding'an's conclusion?"

"Isn't it because you are overprotecting your shortcomings?"

What are you talking about?

When he looked up, he realized that the person who said this was a university professor. The old man swallowed the curse words that came to his lips.

Being a professor makes your brain go crazy?

How come Wang Yongqian is also a cadre of a ministry? Even if his elbows are turned inward, it is impossible for him to turn his elbows to the point where he cannot distinguish between right and wrong and overturn right and wrong?

The old man considered his words, "So, we have to find Wang Yongqian again... Well, Yu Ping, you call him again and tell him the results of the test and identification, and see what he says!"

We really need to look for it again, because this matter is no longer just a matter of who is right or wrong, but how it should end and how to deal with the aftermath after the results come out.

After thinking for a moment, the dean nodded: "Okay!"

……

In the hotel, Wang Yongqian answered the phone and smiled slightly: "The appraisal result came out, which is quite surprising: Zhao Yongjiang looked at it and said that the fabric is fine,"

Xiang Zhiqing frowned: "Zhao Yongjiang...shouldn't he?"

“I don’t know the specific reason, but I’m pretty confident based on the tone... Dean Yu’s words both inside and outside of his words seem a bit like shaking hands and making peace, regardless of past grudges!”

One consultant deliberately asked: "Whose past grievances are not taken into account, but ours?"

Another consultant replied casually: "What do you think? It means: You hurry up, it's not too late to change your mind now!"

"Then did you say when will Li Ding'an be released?"

"What are you dreaming about, don't you want to see what that kid has done to others?"

"And twice in a row!"

A group of old consultants are also quite bad, joking unscrupulously.After a while of commotion, Wang Yongqian looked at Xiang Zhiqing again: "Teacher Xiang, make sure you read it correctly!"

"Don't worry!" Xiang Zhiqing said proudly: "Li Ding'an may be wrong, but I definitely won't!"

What is the difference between your two conclusions?
"That's good!" Wang Yongqian smiled and picked up the phone again, "You still need the ringer to untie the bell, let Li Ding'an handle it by himself..."

……

The problem was once again thrown to the Forbidden City:

Before, it was just ambiguous and playful.But this time, Wang Yongqian made it clear: I suggest you go directly to Li Ding'an.

Still don't understand?

The subliminal meaning is: It’s not that there’s nothing wrong with the thing, it’s that you’re not good enough…

The problem is, the test results from the high-precision laboratory and the photos with black and white writing on the paper have been sent. Why does Wang Yongqian still have such an attitude?

Really, he was the leader of the higher-level department, and he had just been slapped in the face, otherwise there would have been a quarrel.

The secretary knocked on the table: "My opinion is don't worry about it. Just do whatever you want."

The dean sighed: "What if?"

If only Wang Yongqian was okay, the key is that behind him stands the most authoritative and top advisory group in the domestic appraisal industry. This is Director Wang's greatest confidence.

To put it another way: The consultants all decided that there was something wrong with the map.

On the other hand, even if they are mistaken, they must also consider the feelings of the superior department and so many industry veterans.

Therefore, things cannot be done too badly...

"There's nothing wrong with being cautious!" The dean thought for a moment, "Just make one more phone call."

The secretary waved his hand forcefully: "You call, I'll talk..."

……

In the interrogation room, Li Ding'an looked around, looking here and there, and finally touched the armrest.I don’t know how many suspects I have interrogated. The deputy captain knew what he wanted to do at a glance. He almost collapsed: "Why, Teacher Li wants to try whether the steel chair is comfortable to sit on?"

Li Ding'an said nothing and gave a thumbs up, which means you still understand me!
He had entered the Public Security Bureau several times, and he had entered from different locations: first in the capital, then in Shanghai, and this time in Shenyang.But I have never entered the interrogation room.

Including this time: this is just an ordinary office with ordinary chairs.The vice-captain was sitting opposite him, and he could feel the wind blowing if he spoke a little louder...

Tsk, this person’s brain circuit is quite strange... Who would like to sit on that thing?
The vice-captain was secretly amused. He took off the cap of his pen and spread out the notebook. Before he could write anything, the sound of "ta-da-da" footsteps came from outside.

It should be two people. As soon as Li Ding'an and the deputy captain turned their heads, they arrived at the door.

One is the captain whom I just met downstairs, and the other is Secretary Liu.

It's quite strange that these two people appeared together and came to the interrogation room.

Just as he was suspicious, the captain raised his chin towards the vice-captain, meaning to let him come out first.Then Secretary Liu sat across from Li Ding'an and handed over his mobile phone.

After another look, it turned out to be Wang Yongqian.

"lead!"

"Are you really good at it?" Wang Yongqian was very relaxed, with a smile in his tone, "Dean Yu from the Shenyang Forbidden City just called me, and the map identification result came out: it's true!"

"It's impossible...Have you asked the textile master to take a look?"

"Of course I did... An old leader who is very authoritative in the industry. He entered the textile industry in the 60s and worked there until he retired..."

Li Ding'an couldn't help but be startled: shouldn't it?

Your eyes may make mistakes, but your system never makes mistakes.

"Stop delaying, resolve it as soon as possible...the longer you delay, the greater the public opinion will be, which is not good for anyone!"

It's not that I want to delay it, but they can't identify it. What can I do?
Now, what was once a simple thing suddenly becomes complicated again?

Li Ding'an scratched his head and thought for a moment: "Leader, what should we do now?"

"Teacher Xiang would like to take a look at the scene and give them some guidance, but I don't think it's appropriate... Just talk to them directly, be truthful and don't show off."

How can you tell the truth?
Since his head was not squeezed by the door panel, what was he doing at the Public Security Bureau?
But what went wrong?

After thinking about it, Wang Yongqian hung up the phone, and Secretary Liu dialed Dean Yu's mobile phone number.

The person who answered the phone was a middle-aged man: "Expert Li, I am the secretary of the Forbidden City, my surname is Lian, Lian Zizhen... I just asked Director Wang for instructions, and I have a few questions to ask you... Is it convenient for you?"

Are you asking for instructions? The demonstration is just about the same... I didn't hear that Wang Yongqian was a little impatient?
Li Dingan smiled: "The Public Security Bureau is really inconvenient!"

No...at this point, you can still laugh?
"It won't take long, just a few questions!"

"Okay, you say it!"

"Experts have identified it and the fabric is fine..."

Li Ding'an hasn't figured out the issue of fabric yet. He thinks he needs to think about it carefully: "Let's put this at the end. You talk about the other things first!"

"Okay... there's no problem with the seals. There are four seals in total. "Treasure of Instructions", this is the seal used by Qianlong to promote the country's constitution... "Treasure of Respecting Heaven and Diligent People", this is the seal used by Jiaqing to order officials... ..."The Emperor's Treasure of Respecting Relatives", which is the seal of Daoguang to show the clan alliance...and "The Emperor's Treasure of Respecting Relatives", which is the seal of Xianfeng to recommend the emblem...

These squares are all one of the 25 treasures of the Qing Dynasty emperors, and they are all collected in the Forbidden City in the capital.In order to identify it, we specially asked the Palace Museum in Beijing to send a set of photos of the seal.After repeated comparisons, everything is fine..."

Li Ding'an was still thinking about the fabric, and said casually: "The seal is indeed fine, what else?"

He admitted that there was no problem with printing...is he going to change his words?

Secretary Lian was stunned and clicked the record button again: "There are also handwritings...the same inscriptions of these four emperors. Similarly, we borrowed relevant materials from the Forbidden City in the capital and compared them with the calligraphy treasures retained by several emperors. Whether it is calligraphy Habits or traces, completely consistent with..."

"Yes, there's no problem with the words!"

Well, he admitted it again?
"We did another test, and the laboratory can definitely confirm that the silk is more than 100 years old!"

"It is indeed more than 100 years old!"

Lian Zizhen's voice suddenly rose several octaves: "Then you still said it was machine-woven?"

Li Ding'an subconsciously retorted: "The cloth is cloth, and the map is a map. How can you be sure that it was not woven by future generations using cloth from more than 100 years ago?"

"I...the mouth of a dead duck will be hard after being cooked...you are just quibbling!"

Are you starting again?

This was the case last time, they were still discussing with each other, and even the secretary suddenly got angry and started quarreling by banging the table.

In the end, Director Wang was forced to break off Jin Puppet's little finger, and the truth came out. At that time, Secretary Lian's face was purpler than a pig's liver.

How many days have passed?
The dean sighed and took the phone: "Teacher Li, let's discuss it calmly: Since these are all fine, what's the problem?"

"I'm very calm, but there's something wrong with the cloth!"

Li Ding'an paused for a moment: "Can you tell me the conclusions of the textile experts?"

"Authentic Jiangnan brocade is made using wooden machines and handmade techniques, and is purely hand-woven..."

It is indeed brocade, and it is indeed made in Jiangnan.But what I saw at that time was why it was all electric mechanical craftsmanship and there was no wooden machine decoration at all?
It’s impossible for two people to look at the same map, right?

Changed?

This is even more nonsense.

How many hours has it been?Even if they have the courage, they don’t have the ability...

Is it possible that the two people are not looking at the same place?
Suddenly, a light flashed in his mind, and Li Ding'an's eyes lit up: "Which part of the map is the textile expert looking at?"

"Of course the corner?"

"You haven't opened them all?"

"Are you kidding me?" Even Zizhen laughed angrily, "This is a national treasure...who will be responsible if it is damaged by oxidation?"

"I know: it's the place that was covered by the frame before, right? Haha... Just say why there's no impression..."

Li Ding'an laughed twice, "If you just look at the craftsmanship, it's really not easy to recognize, because this is spun using the first generation of Nissan's electric wood-pulling machine. Because the power is not enough, the spun yarn is sparse and soft, and There is almost no difference between artificially woven silk. But apart from the craftsmanship, there are many differences...

In this way, you ask the textile expert to look at it again, don’t look at the corners, look at the middle: this map is not all made of natural silk, part of it is artificial silk! "

What the heck: rayon?

How could such a thing exist in the Qing Dynasty?
Everyone was stunned and stood up in shock, including Zhao Yongjiang.

Before he could rush to the map, he heard Li Ding'an say again: "If you still dare not open all of them, then compare it again: In 1926, Du Jinsheng used an electric machine to spin Hang brocade, "Country and Mountains Ten Thousand Miles Map"... It’s all made of rayon…”
