Jianbao life

Chapter 440
The shopkeeper Chai didn't expect that the people sent by Chu Chen would find him so quickly, and immediately knew that the food was broken, but he was stubborn at first and refused to admit it, but no matter how powerful he was, he had not been specially trained The opponents of those people did not pass much time before they could only honestly spit out the truth.

It turned out that the reason why shopkeeper Chai bribed Shi Laosi to play Uncle Wu was mainly because of the matter of the wooden leaf bowl at the beginning, he held a grudge against Chu Chen, and because of Liu Yu's teasing and funding, he remembered the idea.

Liu Yu learned from Shopkeeper Chai that the relationship between Chu Chen and Uncle Wu is very good, so if Uncle Wu really bought the item by then, Liu Yu would be responsible for spreading the rumors and was going to tarnish Uncle Wu's reputation. If you directly trouble Chu Chen, then ask for some interest from the people around him first.

Chu Chen didn't know how Liu Yu met shopkeeper Chai, and he didn't care about it, but Liu Yu's behavior undoubtedly touched Chu Chen's back, and immediately made Chu Chen furious and wanted to It's not that this crime is not fatal, he wished he could cut the two of them into pieces.

Even so, Chu Chen was still going to give the two of them the most severe punishment. However, after Uncle Wu learned the truth, although he was very emotional, he felt that after all, they were colleagues of more than ten years. Necessary, he persuaded Chu Chen, but in the end he just let shopkeeper Chai and his family move out of the capital.

In fact, even if Chu Chen didn't say anything, shopkeeper Chai already wanted to move out of the capital after learning about Chu Chen's background. He never thought that Chu Chen would have such a strong background. Want to get it?
As for Liu Yu, it is more troublesome. This kind of thing definitely cannot kill him with a stick, and because the older generation of his family is still alive, it is impossible to do too much. Liu Yu closed the door and thought about it.

Such a result made Chu Chen feel a little bit unwilling, but there is no way, once some things are related to politics, simple things will become complicated. Unless the two families completely tear each other apart, some rules still have to be followed .

Closer to home, after hearing what Chu Chen said, Li Beibei said contemptuously: "If you still say you don't hold grudges, why don't you even say a word to me?"

Chu Chen spread his hands and said, "Then what do you want me to tell you?"

"..." Li Beibei was speechless for a while, she really couldn't think of anything to talk about with Chu Chen.

Chu Chen shook his head. He didn't know why he was not interested in talking when he was with Li Beibei. Maybe this was the so-called natural offense, so he picked up the teacup and sipped tea by himself.

Seeing Chu Chen's appearance, Li Beibei didn't know why, and couldn't help but feel a little angry. After racking her brains for a while, she still felt that she could only use antiques as an entry point. It happened that there was one thing beside her, which was sweet. Sweet smile said: "Chu Chen, can you do me a favor?"

"What's the matter?" Chu Chen asked. Anyway, the soldiers came to block him, and the water came to cover him. He was not afraid of Li Beibei's tricks.

"It's very simple for you, how about showing me this Ming Dynasty birthday decoration?" With that said, Li Beibei took out a small box from his pocket and put it in front of Chu Chen.

"Okay, let me take a look first."

Chu Chen nodded, then picked up the small box and opened it. Inside the box was the birthday jade ornament that Li Beibei had mentioned.

The statue is about eight centimeters high, and it looks as if it was carefully carved from high-quality white jade. A treasure, dressed in rich clothes and brocade clothes, with soft shoes on his feet, sat cross-legged on the ground with a happy expression.

His hair is combed in a bun, his eyes are downcast, his long beard is fluffy, his lips are slightly parted, and he seems to be listening to others with a smile.

This jade ornament, if you look at the carving skills, is still very good. The whole statue is vividly represented by the craftsman, which is very substituting. It also looks quite in line with the style of the Ming Dynasty, and the surface is covered with orange. The skin pattern, but it was the orange peel pattern on the jade ornament at a glance that Chu Chen immediately had some thoughts in his heart.

After carefully looking at this birthday ornament, Chu Chen put it back into the box, and then said: "The carving of this birthday ornament is not bad."

"Not bad, I think it's pretty good too, and my grandpa will definitely like it too!" Li Beibei said triumphantly.

"But..." Chu Chen turned around and said, "If you really want to give it to Mr. Li, it's best not to say it's from the Ming Dynasty."

Hearing what Chu Chen said, Li Beibei was a little dumbfounded. After a while, she asked in disbelief: "What did you say? Is this birthday decoration a fake?"

Chu Chen shrugged his shoulders and said, "If you think it is a birthday star carved with Hetian seed materials in the Ming Dynasty, it is a fake."

Li Beibei opened his mouth, and then quickly took out the statue. After looking it over, he said with a look of disbelief: "How could this be a fake? You can see that the carving is so good, and there are orange peel patterns, and you see This jade is so white and so good, how could it not be Hetian seed material?"

"Don't worry, let me tell you why this piece of jade is wrong."

Chu Chen made a calm gesture, and then explained: "You said that the white jade is suet jade, but on the contrary, the real suet jade will not look so white and bright, you see This statue has a slight porcelain feel and looks a little dry in the hand, which is the basic feature of the Russian jade in our industry, also known as Russian material."

"If it is Hetian seed material, generally speaking, the color is bluish, the chroma is not very pure, and it is rare to have a fairly consistent whiteness. If there is a very white seed material with the same color in Hetian local jade, then It’s a very expensive price, and it’s impossible to get a statue like this without hundreds of thousands.”

"I... I also bought it for nearly 20 yuan." Li Beibei said with a little confidence.

"And look!"

Chu Chen slightly took the statue into his hands, held it up to Li Beibei and said, "This piece of jade doesn't have the sweaty pores of Hetian seed material, and it doesn't even have the feeling that the light seeps out of the jade. This kind of light is restrained. The characteristics of Hetian Zimai are only possessed by Hetian Zimai, and it is also an important basis for identifying Hetian Zimai.”

Chu Chen didn't know, with his actions now, and Li Beibei's unknowingly approaching Chu Chen, in the eyes of outsiders, he seemed somewhat intimate, but this scene just happened to be walking with a middle-aged man and woman. Yu Guangjie who came in saw it, and immediately made a ball of raging anger appear in his eyes.

Seeing that the jade statue did not have the performance that Chu Chen said, Li Beibei couldn't help feeling extremely frustrated and depressed, but she still didn't give up and asked, "What about the orange peel pattern on it?"

Chu Chen said: "It's all made. As for the methods, there are many methods, such as manual grinding, chemical corrosion, and so on."

Speaking of this, he also mentioned the characteristics of real orange peel: "If it is real orange peel, it should have several characteristics, for example, the orange peel is accompanied by pits and holes in other states. , Qin groove, Qin blemish; while the imitation product is in a single state; in the folds or grooves of the orange peel, there are natural color and grain; the color and grain on the orange peel can be observed The naturally formed Qinmen..."

After talking about the characteristics of the orange peel pattern, Chu Chen continued: "Besides, the orange peel pattern of ancient jade is formed by the reaction of ground temperature and humidity on the surface of the jade. It is also called oxidation protrusion. In other words, in general Now, only Gao Guyu who has been buried in the soil will have orange peel patterns, but how many people will take birthday stars as burial objects?"

After hearing what Chu Chen said, Li Beibei also felt that it made sense. Generally, no one would put a birthday star in the tomb after death, right?In addition, she didn't discover those authentic features, so she gave up completely. If she still thinks that her statue will be genuine, she is deceiving herself.

The hard-earned gift, but bought a fake, Li Beibei felt angry when she thought about it, but besides being angry, she couldn't help but slander, this Chu Chen must be a broom star, otherwise why did I ask him to identify things that were not fakes every time? There is just a problem, it has never been what she wants, is it true that there are really two people in the world who are naturally at odds?

But when she thought of Chu Chen's girlfriend Wu Ke, Li Beibei didn't feel strange immediately. As the saying goes, like attracts like, and people are divided into groups. She and Wu Ke have been incompatible since they were young. No surprises.

"Thank you!"

Although she was a little dissatisfied with Chu Chen, but after all she avoided making a fool of herself, Li Beibei thanked Chu Chen with a bitter face. As for Chu Chen's life-saving grace, she put it in her heart. This kind of life-saving grace is not worth a thank you.

But the kindness is kindness, Chu Chen still finds it very annoying in her heart, who told Chu Chen to have a girlfriend named Wu Ke?
Chu Chen replied with a smile: "You're welcome!..."

"Beibei, what are you talking about?"

As soon as Chu Chen finished speaking, Yu Guangjie came up to him mysteriously and asked with a smile.

Li Beibei said with a straight face, "it's none of your business!"

Li Beibei knows Yu Guangjie's actions very well, and her dislike of him can be said to the extreme. For example, the conflict between her and Chu Chen is just an internal conflict among the people, and between her and Yu Guangjie is a life-and-death class struggle. Of course, there will be no good looks for him.

No matter how thick-skinned Yu Guangjie is, seeing Li Beibei treat her like this is somewhat embarrassing, and he is not a kind of person who is willing to let go, so he cursed in his heart, stinky bitch, when you fall into my palm in the future, I will Will definitely want you to look good!
