Masterful appearance

() When leaving the tea stall, Yan Tongshou told Chu Tianci to come and sit often when he was free, Chu Tianci nodded happily, but Yue Qianling didn't have the slightest nostalgia for this place, and pulled Chu Tianci into the crowd without looking back ghost city.

"Are you very proud today?" Yue Qianling suddenly asked with a smile.

Chu Tianci shook his head at a loss and said, "Why should I be proud?"

"I found the organization, I didn't see Yan Liuzhi looking at you." Yue Qianling's words had a faint sour taste no matter how they sounded. "Just like you are really an emperor, he will kneel down and kowtow to you three times."

"Yan Tongshou can be regarded as a senior. If it doesn't make sense, I'll make fun of it. Besides, An Qi was half-spoken last time. I think she has a deep understanding of numerology and fortune-telling." Chu Tianci looked at Yue Qianling solemnly. "Maybe, I'm lucky. It's not necessarily the order of the emperor."

"Hey, you've learned to climb the ladder smoothly. When an old liar meets a young liar, they're running on you. You can't even tell." Yue Qianling held her mouth with a look of contempt.

"Don't talk about me. You called me here early in the morning. You didn't just want to go to the ghost market. What's the matter?" Chu Tianci said with a smile.

Yue Qianling tilted her head and said looking around.

"My dad said that you are very good at appreciating antiques. I just happened to be working on a dissertation on the authenticity of jade articles. There are all kinds of goods in the ghost market. Since you are good at it, today I want to see how good you are. Two... also teach me how to distinguish the authenticity of jade articles."

"I knew it was nothing good, and it's not like you didn't see it. Just now I said something extra, and he was going to be popular. Aren't you making it clear that you are going to smash their stalls?"

"When you play antiques, you have to play with your eyesight. If you put the real ones there, you can tell if you can't see them. It's your own ability. What do you mean by smashing a stall?"

The road ahead was already blocked, there was a lot of noise, the crowd was like an exploding pot, Yue Qianling seemed to have a soft spot for all lively things, she pulled Chu Tianci and squeezed into the crowd.

After finally squeezing to the front, it was also a man in his 40s. There was nothing in front of the booth. There was a piece of white jade on the velvet cloth. The object was about the size of a palm. The decoration is carved with techniques, one side is carved with a dragon in shallow relief, and the other side is embossed with four wishful-shaped cloud patterns, the decoration is fine and smooth.

"You study archaeology, let's test you, do you know what kind of jade this is?" Chu Tianci suddenly smiled and asked in a low voice.

"This is a jade plate with grain nails." Yue Qianling replied without thinking.

"There are still a few more things left, then tell me what year you are from?" Chu Tianci continued to ask, still unsatisfied.

"This bi is mostly brown, with dragon patterns engraved in Yin. The carving is strong and rough, and the curves are ups and downs. The style is from the Han Dynasty. To be precise, it is something from the Eastern Han Dynasty. However, the dragon pattern is somewhat different from that of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the craftsmanship is far more advanced than that of the Eastern Han Dynasty. , the Song Dynasty attached great importance to the use of bi, followed the system of using bi in the Han Dynasty, and produced a large number of jade bi, which should be imitated by the Song Dynasty in the Han Dynasty."

Chu Tianci nodded approvingly, but he didn't realize that Yue Qianling, who was usually flamboyant, had solid basic skills.

"This lady is someone from the circle at first glance, and she immediately recognized that this object is from the Song Dynasty imitating the Han Dynasty. She has good eyesight." Hearing what Yue Qianling said just now, the stall raised his head and said in surprise. "Many people say that it is from the Han Dynasty. If you are not an expert, you really can't tell that it is an imitation from the Song Dynasty. If you are a layman, it will be easy."

There are generally two types of people wandering in the ghost market, one is the real expert who comes here to pick up the leaks, and the other is the one who doesn't know how to gamble on luck at all, the second type of people is obviously more than the first type a lot of.

But no matter what kind of person it is, it is not common to see such a complete and complete grain nail pattern in the ghost market, no matter whether it is the Han Dynasty or the Song Dynasty, as long as this thing is Really, that is a priceless treasure.

"This lady is an expert, come here, hold it in your hand and have a look." The stall was quite generous, and carefully handed the Guding Wenbi to Yue Qianling. "For laymen to watch the excitement, and for professionals to watch the doorway, give me your palm to see if this stuff is real or not."

Although Yue Qianling studied archaeology and had seen many antique jade wares, it was the first time she had seen such a complete valley nail pattern and received it in her hands with great excitement.

The grain nail pattern bi is very beautiful, the size of a large sesame seed cake, slightly smaller than a pancake, hollowed out in the middle, covered with grain nails on the blue surface, and slightly cinnabar with a little bit of cinnabar. The stall said it was brought when it was unearthed.

Anyone with a bit of archaeological knowledge knows that if a layer of cinnabar is placed under the tomb, the regulation of this kind of cemetery is absolutely essential, and the things buried in the tomb will also be very good things.

Then there is a little trace of cinnabar on this nail, which just proves that it is a funerary object unearthed from a large tomb. The stall repeatedly explained that he did not rob the tomb, and bought this thing through other channels.

The ghost market produces good products, it seems that this saying is not false at all.

Yue Qianling played with it repeatedly according to the knowledge she had learned, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it, and no matter where she looked at it, the valley nail pattern was the real thing.

Yue Qianling couldn't put it down, and found that Chu Tianci had been silent by the side, and she didn't have much confidence in her heart, so she handed him the Gu Dingwen Bi.

"Help me see, is it true?"

Chu Tianci shook his head and smiled with lingering fear, "It doesn't matter if it's true or not. You won't buy it anyway. Put it back quickly. If it breaks, you won't be able to pay for it."

"You can't watch it if you don't sell it?" Yue Qianling tilted her head and gave him a white look. "Of course good things should be appreciated."

"The lady is right, it doesn't matter if you buy it or not, just give it a hand." The stall is a real person, with a friendly smile on his face.

There are more and more people around the stall, such a rare Guding-patterned Bi is absolutely rare, several people are full of praise for the quality of the Guding-patterned Bi, Chu Tianci hurriedly passed the Guding-patterned Bi, and the one who took over was a The old man with glasses is about 60 years old.

"The patina is thick and fluorescent, and the yin and yang sides are surrounded by water, but it is still beautiful." The old man held his glasses on the bridge of his nose, excited as if he had found a treasure. "Good stuff, good stuff."

Yue Qianling looked up and was stunned for a moment, then suddenly laughed.

"Professor Jiang! You always come to visit the ghost market?"

The old man squinted to see Yue Qianling next to him, nodded and laughed.

"Qianling, hahaha, I'm used to it. I come here once every week. After working in archaeology all my life, I like to play with these things. Qianling, you...you came here alone?"

"Oh, no, I came with my friend." Yue Qianling pointed to Chu Tianci beside her and said.

"Hehe, so I came to hang out with my boyfriend, you girl is a ghost, let's cultivate common hobbies first, hahaha." The old man nodded peacefully at Chu Tianci.

Yue Qianling blushed again, biting her lip and hastily explained.

"Professor Jiang, don't get me wrong, he...he is either my boyfriend, or...just a friend."

"Oh! Hehe, friend, friend." The old man smiled meaningfully and whispered to Chu Tianci. "Walk around more and slowly you will become a boyfriend, boy, come on, comrades who have not yet succeeded in the revolution still need to work hard."

"You really misunderstood me. I'm really not her boyfriend..." Chu Tianci felt embarrassed when he said that, so he changed the subject. "Hi, my name is Chu Tianci."

"This is the director of our Institute of Archeology, Professor Jiang Luhua." Yue Qianling pursed her lips and introduced.

The people around the booth heard that the director of the Institute of Archaeology said that the Guding Bibi was real, and there was a lot of noise and exclamation.

"Professor Jiang, there is still cinnabar on it, there are traces of cinnabar, please take a look." Someone in the crowd asked curiously.

"Qin produces color, color produces light, light produces vitality, and energy produces spirit. The Qin of ancient jade gathers the aura of nature and is brewed by time to be born naturally. The appearance of color, but it cannot be without the soul element of light, energy, and spirit. Today, people can imitate the pattern of material and workmanship, but it is difficult to imitate its appearance; Those who can shape materials and work patterns are beginners; those who can see the beauty are masters; those who can master the light, energy and spirit are masters." Professor Jiang talked with his hands behind his back.

A professor is a professor, and his words are full of quotations. Although the words are esoteric and difficult to understand, they really sound like that. Chu Tianci also agrees with what Professor Jiang said.

"As for the jade on this piece of jade, you don't need to look at it. I am getting old and my eyesight is not good. The authenticity of this object mainly depends on the workmanship." Professor Jiang said with certainty. "It doesn't matter whether there is cinnabar or not. This piece of jade itself is a treasure, and of course it can reflect its value even more."

"Grandpa, please give an estimate. You are always authoritative, and the price you say is fair. If it is suitable, I will buy it." Someone in the crowd asked expectantly.

"Jade Bi pays attention to the ancient charm and verve, but it's hard to estimate the price of jade bi, so I can't say for sure." Professor Jiang shook his head in a embarrassed look.

"You always talk about the price casually. You are experienced in this field, and you won't cheat people." The person who asked the question just now asked.

"You're old, but it's okay. Things are placed here for people to evaluate. The price you ask for is the money you talk about. Even if I ask for the price, I have to be bought by someone. As long as it suits me, I will sell it." The stall owner said kindly. Very politely.

Professor Jiang weighed in silence for a long time, took a deep breath and said.

"If I have to say a price, based on my experience, it should be...about [-]!"

There was an uproar among the crowd. The wages of workers in the 80s were only 60 to 5 yuan a month, and such a small piece of jade was 100 yuan.

Yue Qianling suddenly noticed that Chu Tianci beside her was looking around absent-mindedly.

"What are you looking at?"

"Look where there is a place to sell food." Chu Tianci rubbed his stomach and said with a smile.

"You were reincarnated from starvation, why do you think about eating all day long?" Yue Qianling said angrily.

"You woke me up in the middle of the night, and I've been standing for a long time, and I'm dizzy from hunger." Chu Tianci smiled wryly.

"Aren't you good at reading? Go and see if the jade bi is real." Yue Qianling glared at him and suddenly smiled. "If you see it right, I'll treat you to something delicious after visiting the ghost market."

"What else do I need to see?" Chu Tianci said to her helplessly, spreading his hands. "The professors in your institute say it's true, so it can still be false."

Professor Jiang heard Yue Qianling and Chu Tianci muttering beside him, and handed the jade bi to Chu Tianci with a pleasant smile.

"Young man, take a look and feel the weight of history. This is something that has existed for thousands of years. Qian Ling wants to cultivate your cultural temperament."

Professor Jiang obviously didn't understand Yue Qianling's intention of letting Chu Tianci see it. Chu Tianci couldn't take the jade bi, pretended to look at it, touched it with his hand, and hurriedly handed it back to the stall, as if he was afraid that it would fall into his hands Li, it looks like I can't afford it.
