Jianbao life

Chapter 1059
But in fact, Jia Yuqiang’s family does not have such conditions at all. Yu Renpeng estimates that his family’s deposit does not even have 500 million yuan, and there is a payment for the goods, so it is normal to be cautious when buying a pair of antiques worth nearly 60 yuan. matter.

However, when everyone saw Jia Yuqiang's unrepentant appearance, it is obvious that even if you analyze this kind of truth to him, you probably won't listen to it.

Jia Yuqiang said again: "Besides, I dealt with some collections later and bought that pair of porcelains. Everyone who has seen them agrees. Doesn't this prove my vision? But, just because I If you pay a few days late, the price of the item will be tens of thousands more expensive, so whose loss is it?"

Yu Renpeng was a little surprised when he heard this, and said, "Why didn't I know about this?"

Jia Yuqiang chuckled and said, "I called you last time because you said that the museum was too busy to push it away. As for those collections, they were taken away by a friend of mine. I didn't have a chance to inform you... ..."

Yu Renpeng recalled it for a while, and it seemed that there was indeed such a thing, and then he heard Jia Yuqiang say: "However, I also brought that pair of porcelain today. Let's see if this is a rare pair of high-quality ceramics."

As he spoke, he opened the suitcase, took out a brocade box from inside, put it on the table and opened it.

Inside the box are a pair of blue and white seawater dragon pattern vats, and Chu Chen is familiar with the shape and pattern of the blue and white vats.

This kind of cylinder shape was first created in the Yongzheng period and was popular in the Qian, Jia, and Taoist dynasties. It was made to imitate the dragon cylinder of the Jiajing official kiln.In June of the third year of Qianlong's reign, Emperor Qianlong ordered the Ministry of Internal Affairs to hand over a batch of porcelain for Tang Ying to copy. Among them were five pieces of blue-and-white porcelain from the Jiajing official kiln, including the original copy of the pair of vases.

According to the relevant documents of the Ministry of Internal Affairs during the Qianlong period: "June 25th: Samuha, the leader of the seventh rank, urged Bai Shixiu to tell the eunuch Gao Yujiao... a small kiln Qinglong vat..., handed over and fired Tang Ying, the porcelain department, sent all the porcelains to be fired in the same way. When the firing was completed, the original porcelains would be handed back and still handed over to the porcelain warehouse. The large vessels in this porcelain should be taken as samples, and the small porcelain vessels should be taken with them. This is it."

It can be seen from this that this type of blue and white seawater dragon pattern cylinder was imitated after the third year of Qianlong.

This pair of vats has a lip, a bulging abdomen, a shin, a flat bottom and a concave, white glaze on the outer half of the foot and the center of the foot, and a circle of astringent tires on the inner half of the foot, forming a jade wall-shaped foot.The shape of the device is correct.The inner wall of the vat is painted with white glaze without grain, and the outer wall is painted with clouds, dragons and sea patterns. One dragon is struggling to chase each other, and the other is looking back at the prime minister. The shape is ferocious, and the hair is standing on end.

The carcass of the case cylinder is solid, the glaze color is pure, the blue and white color is strong, and the inscription is rigorous and correct.On the case, it can be said to be a high-grade study boutique.

But then again, there is usually only one case tank like this, how can there be a pair?Of course, it is not impossible for you to say that it is specially collected, but the price of 60 is undoubtedly too cheap.If it were Chu Chen, he would buy it even if the other party sold it for 80 or [-] yuan, and he believes that there should be many people who think like him.

So, here comes the question, if the seller is really selling so cheaply, why is Jia Yuqiang, who is a few days late, the turn?
With such doubts, Chu Chen carefully observed the pair of case vats, and after a while, he secretly nodded.

After putting the things back in place, Chu Chen asked, "Mr. Jia, I would like to ask, how much did you spend on this pair of case jars?"

"It was 58 before, but later it was sold for 65, which is a full [-] more." When he mentioned the price, Jia Yuqiang was still a little angry. If he had bought it earlier, why would he have to spend an extra [-]? Only one set of electrical appliances can earn back?

At this time, Yu Renpeng had also appraised the pair of case vats. He frowned when he heard the price of the case vats. He also had Chu Chen's doubts just now and said, "Old Jia, you didn't have enough money at that time." When the time came, did you tell the seller to let him stay for a while?"

Jia Yuqiang shook his head: "At that time, I didn't have the face to stay there, so how dare I ask him to keep his things for a while."

"In this case, then I have a question." Yu Renpeng said: "I don't believe that no one is interested in this pair of vats except you. Since this pair of vats is so cheap, why should I keep it for you? ? Or, you are the only one who knows about the pair of vats."

"Uh..." After hearing this, Jia Yuqiang also realized the problem. It is unreasonable to say that the seller sold it cheaply but no one came to buy it. Unless there is a reason, it is something wrong.This made him nervous, he couldn't be wrong.

Thinking of this, Jia Yuqiang looked at Yu Renpeng and Chu Chen nervously, and asked, "No way, is there really a problem with the case?"

Yu Renpeng said: "Junior brother, you are the authority in this regard, you should say it."

"There is indeed a problem with the case..." Chu Chen looked down on Jia Yuqiang's actions, so he didn't say anything euphemistic, and directly pointed out the result and the problem with the case.

It is worth mentioning that this pair of vats can be basically determined to be the work of Cai Jianxuan, but the treatment of the encapsulation is not the encapsulation liquid used, but another method that Chu Chen has never seen before, which may be related to the experimental products , for some experienced experts, as long as they observe carefully, they can still be identified.Perhaps it was precisely because of this that Jia Yuqiang finally took over the game.

In addition, it can be seen from the forgery method of the patina that Cai Jianxuan probably realized that Chu Chen and the others had a method to identify the patina, so they planned to improve the forgery method, which shows his sense of urgency.

Jia Yuqiang obviously couldn't accept this reality, and was very shocked: "No way... how could this happen... this must not be true!"

Yu Renpeng was also very angry at his friend's obsession: "Old Jia, my junior brother has already described it in such detail, how much do you think this pair of vats is genuine? You, it's time to wake up and think about it. Is what you did right for a while!"

Jia Yuqiang was silent for a moment, and said: "If I was the only one who read it wrong, then I have nothing to say, but I have shown it to a few friends, and they all said it was good, so how can I explain it?"

Yu Renpeng asked: "Which friends are you talking about?"

Jia Yuqiang told the names of several friends, Yu Renqiang happened to know them all, he sneered and said:

"I think you're out of your mind. Who are these? One collects strange stones, the other mainly collects Buddha statues, and the other two are simply half-baked. How dare you compare such a person with a professional? Do you think you can do it?" Be more reliable?!"

"No, he definitely won't lie to me. I used to patronize his business a lot. You can see that these seals are all bought from him. They are all high-quality goods!"

But Jia Yuqiang seemed to be in a daze, and kept saying that things were right. While speaking, he took out a few more small boxes from the suitcase, and inside were a few seals made of Tianhuang and bloodstone.

Yu Renpeng frowned and said, "Old Jia, you have to face up to the reality. From now on, as long as you live a good life, you will make back the money you lost sooner or later."

"You... hey! You don't understand!"

After hearing these words, Jia Yuqiang finally became less hysterical. He sighed and said, "Lao Yu, I'll talk about this later. Take a look at these things. If you like them, I can give them to you at a lower price."

After speaking, he took out the other things in the box one by one and put them on the table.

Jia Yuqiang's stubborn attitude left Yu Renpeng with no choice but to appraise the things first.

Chu Chen picked up a Tianbai seal, which should have been made by Huang Shiling judging from the printed text and side inscription.

Huang Shiling was a highly accomplished calligrapher, painter and seal carver in the late Qing Dynasty. In the history of modern seal cutting, Huang Shiling's creative achievements and influence on later generations of seal cutting can be compared with Wu Changshuo.

Huang Shiling's seal cutting is heavy and solid, with special emphasis on vigor, subtlety, depth, humor and thought-provoking.In terms of knife skills, he is ingenious and clumsy, returning to simplicity, and seeks sharpness in the smoothness of the knife; the seal method uses gold characters and expresses it with a very plain and calm style; the chapter method focuses on the organic space of the printed surface. cutting.

However, although the seal in Chu Chen's hand was similar to Huang Shiling's in terms of saber technique, the artistic conception was far from it. This made Chu Chen very speechless. Could there be a problem with the first party's seal?This Jia Yuqiang's luck is too bad, right?

Thinking so, Chu Chen carefully observed the material of the seal, and found that the problem was not small.

Seeing Chu Chen frowning slightly, Jia Yuqiang's heart began to tremble, and he asked fearfully:
"Director Chu, is there something wrong with this seal? Didn't it mean that there are no imitations of Huang Shiling's seal?"

Chu Chen was a little speechless when he heard the words, and said: "In the northern market, there were many imitations of modern seal carvers, such as Zhao Zhiqian, Wu Changshuo, and Qi Baishi, while Wu Rangzhi and Huang Shiling's were relatively few. This is in line with people's understanding of them and their works. How much is related. For example, Huang Shiling, a great master, some people in the capital did not know him in the past, so his seal was not valued by people for a time, and of course there are far fewer imitations."

"But the lack of imitations does not mean that there are no ones, and one must not choose seals based on this concept, especially now that communication is so developed. For collectors who collect seals, who would not know Huang Shiling? In this case, imitations Of course there are more."

"However, your seal, I think it should have been made in the period of the Republic of China. In addition, the material of the seal should be forged from Baishou Mountain."

Then, Chu Chen explained the characteristics of the material.

Jia Yuqiang was stunned and said: "No way! In the Republic of China, will you forge such a realistic Tian Huang?"

"How fresh it is!"

After hearing these words, everyone couldn't help but laugh, let alone the Republic of China, the Baishou Mountain Stone was imitated by Tian Bai, but it existed in the Qing Dynasty.

At that time, people boiled ordinary Huangshoushan and Baishoushan in dried apricot water for about 24 hours and took them out. When the heat had not subsided, they were baked close to the fire. When the corresponding temperature was reached, they were rubbed with gamboge. .In this way, it is often rubbed and baked until the yellow color penetrates into the inside of the stone, and then rubbed with bleaching powder, it becomes fake Tianbai.

Chen Keshu of the Qing Dynasty mentioned this method of forgery in "Seal Cutting Needle Degree": "It is very difficult for those who want to obtain old products. Recently, they are new stones of hibiscus. Old stones are sold, and there are even those who fake stones from other mountains and make them look like real ones."

This kind of knowledge is easy to find, but Jia Yuqiang actually asked three questions, and this attitude also made everyone not very optimistic about the remaining seals.Sure enough, after the final appraisal, there were six seals in total, and five of them were fakes.

For such a result, Jia Yuqiang wanted to cry, but Yu Renpeng didn't know what to say anymore. As far as Jia Yuqiang's eyesight was concerned, even without this incident, his monthly pocket money would probably be wiped out.

However, after several seals were authenticated, Chu Chen discovered that, except for the imitation seal from the Republic of China period, the other four imitation seals were actually the same as the fake seals purchased by Haojing He Lihang. They are very similar, and it is basically easy to find similar features.

In addition, in addition, the pair of case jars just now were also made by Cai Jianxuan.Then, it is very likely that the imitators of the fake prints are from the same group...
