Jianbao life

Chapter 820 Be Careful
Chu Chen said with a chuckle: "It's really nothing, but it depends on what it is. I'm just afraid of trouble. If the bronze utensil brought out by your friend is a heavy utensil, then it's really inconvenient for me to take over. And if The Ming Wanli colorful cloud and dragon pattern cover box you mentioned is also a pit tool, and it is also a troublesome thing."

Seeing what Chu Chen said, Ma Xiaoqiang quickly said: "Young Master Chu, you are a big shot from the capital, even if you are a victim of life, for you, wanting to clean up is not a matter of words!"

Chu Chen shook his head when he heard the words: "That's what I said, but it requires me to make connections."

Ma Xiaoqiang said with a chuckle: "How about this, I will ask my friend to give you some discounts, what do you think?"

Chu Chen smiled slightly and said, "Then this matter will trouble you!"

"No trouble. No trouble! This is exactly what I should do!"

Ma Xiaoqiang nodded and bowed on the surface, but he said contemptuously in his heart: "Isn't it just to get some money! No wonder people always say that rich people are iron cocks. Looking at it today, it really is so!"

According to Ma Xiaoqiang's guidance, Hu Yong drove to a hotel, but the location of the hotel made Chu Chen and Hu Yong extremely speechless, because it was just opposite to the place where Ma Xiaoqiang was picked up just now.They just ran a long circle in vain.And the motive for doing this was nothing more than to see if there was anyone following Chu Chen.

Chu Chen said with a displeased face: "I said Mr. Ma, you are being a little unkind! Gasoline money doesn't cost much, but isn't this a waste of my time!"

Ma Xiaoqiang quickly apologized and said with a smile: "Young Master Chu, this is what my friend told me, but I didn't do it on purpose, and my friend also told me before that because of the inconvenience this incident caused you, Young Master Chu, he Decided to reduce the price by half on the basis of the final agreed price, I hope you will take care of it!"

"Huh! Let's go!" Chu Chen snorted coldly. As long as the other party didn't take him for a fool and added things, he really didn't care too much about the price, but from this matter, he felt that Xiaoqiang's friend was too careful, and he would undoubtedly have to pay more attention to such a careful tomb robber.

After getting out of the car, Chu Chen first went to the service desk to open a room. During this period, he also hinted to Hu Yong to be careful, and Hu Yong nodded slightly to express his understanding.

The three of them entered the room, and after a while, someone knocked on the door.

Ma Xiaoqiang hurriedly went to open the door, and after a while, he saw a man in his 30s, carrying a large travel bag, walking in with Ma Xiaoqiang.

This man looks gentle and wears a pair of eyes. Normally, Chu Chen would only think of him as a high-level intellectual at most, but the fierce look that flashed from the man's eyes from time to time made Chu Chen feel that this man should not not simple.

The man put the bag next to the sofa where Chu Chen was sitting, and then shook hands with Chu Chen with a smile on his face: "This must be Young Master Chu, he really is a dragon and a phoenix!"

Chu Chen replied politely: "Thank you, thank you! I don't know what is your name, sir?"

The man laughed and said, "My surname is Ma, so I'm still Xiaoqiang's distant relative. Young Master Chu, you can just call me Lao Ma..."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, the two sides got to the point. Chu Chen said with a smile: "Old Ma, I don't know what treasure you got here today, can you let me appreciate it?"

"Baby or not, they are just gadgets. I hope you will not be disappointed, Young Master Chu!"

The old horse laughed, then brought the bag over, and put the contents inside, one by one, on the coffee table.

There are not many things in the bag, there are only five pieces in total, two of which are porcelain, two are stationery, and one is bronze.

"Please!" The old horse made a gesture of invitation.

"Then I'm welcome..."

Chu Chen nodded with a smile, and then looked at the five utensils in front of him from left to right, but he was very disappointed in the result. Although the five utensils looked quite similar, to outsiders, they were There are completely fake things, but with his eyesight, he can tell the authenticity of things at a glance, and one of them made him almost laugh out loud.

Putting the last bronze vessel back to its original place, Chu Chen said with a look of concern: "Old Ma, you are really not kind! Or are you using me as a mallet?"

The old horse was slightly taken aback, and then he said with a look of injustice: "Young Master Chu, what you said, how could I treat you as a stick?"

This old horse's acting skills are also quite superb. If you look at his expression, if you don't know, you might think that Chu Chen wronged him.

However, Chu Chen can be regarded as an old man, he said with a chuckle: "Old Ma, people don't say dark words, if only one or two of these things are wrong, then I won't say anything, but now five things are wrong." No, I want to ask you, what's going on!"

"how can that be!"

The old horse was shocked when he heard what Chu Chen said, and then quickly looked at the things on the coffee table, then picked up a strong pot, and said to Chu Chen: "Just say that this strong pot is so exquisitely made. , how could it be wrong!"

The strong pot in the old horse's hand has a short neck, narrow shoulders, straight belly and round feet.This tank is called "strong tank" because the bottom of the mouth is equal, it is tall and cylindrical, and the top and bottom are thick.

The whole body of this jar is glazed and rich, the glaze color is white and blue, and the whole body is painted with seven layers of patterns such as wishful cloud head patterns, curly grass patterns, and sea water patterns. From the looks of it, it doesn't look like it's the real thing.

Moreover, the surface of this tank also seems to have traces of "rust spots", but they are not obvious, and these "rust spots" are not natural, Chu Chen can tell at a glance that these "rust spots" are artificially made Yes, this is one of the reasons why Chu Chen judged that this strong jar is a fake.

And this strong pot has another fatal flaw, and this flaw is the culprit that Chu Chen almost laughed out loud just now.

Chu Chen said with a smile: "Lao Ma, since you said this thing is genuine, then I will ask you a question, what is the name of this strong jar?"

The old horse turned the jar over and read: "Emperor Zhu Shidi, Emperor Chengzu of the Ming Dynasty, used it in the Gengyinqiu of the eighth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty. This should be fine, right?"

Seeing that the old horse looked at him with some confusion, Chu Chen didn't know whether he knew what he was asking or if he really didn't understand. However, judging from the uncontrollable expression of Ma Xiaoqiang next to him, maybe the old horse really didn't understand it. too understanding.

So, Chu Chen explained: "Well, old horse, Ming Chengzu is the temple name, only after the emperor's death, how could it appear in the eighth year of Yongle?"

After hearing Chu Chen's explanation, the old horse was stunned. He really didn't know much about it, but when Chu Chen said this, he also realized that who would write his dead name on his own? What about things?Only fools can do this, right?

But when he came back to his senses and saw Ma Xiaoqiang who almost laughed out loud, he felt that he had lost face and was a little upset, so he gave Ma Xiaoqiang a hard look, and argued, "That's not necessarily true, it's Maybe the temple name was prepared by the emperor before his death?"

Chu Chen smiled slightly and said: "Old Ma, what you said is impossible. Because, in fact, Zhu Di's temple name after his death was Emperor Taizong of Ming Dynasty. It was not until more than 100 years later, when Emperor Jiajing reigned, that Zhu Di's temple name was given to him. Changed to Ming Chengzu. People in later generations are used to calling Chengzu Zhu Di, but people at that time definitely would not call him that."

Hearing this, if the old horse wants to quibble again, it will be unreasonable. He is quite a bachelor, so he put the jar back into the bag, pointed to the other four things, and asked: "Young Master Chu, what about the four things?" things, how can you say they are wrong?"

Chu Chen smiled slightly: "Let's talk about this inkstone box first..."

Inkstone boxes, also known as inkstone boxes, are used to place inkstones.Those made of purple wood, ebony, watercress and lacquer are the best.However, the inkstone box brought by Lao Ma uses the craft of copper tire filigree enamel.

At first glance, this inkstone box has magnificent decoration, regular copper body, pure color, and resplendent gold and jade, but if you look closely, the details are really rough. Such a thing is still named after Qianlong. If it is placed in front of Qianlong , It is estimated that the craftsman did not know how he died.

Next, Chu Chen pointed out the flaws of the other three things to Lao Ma one by one: "Old Ma, all five things are fake, do you think you are being too unkind?"

The old horse bowed to Chu Chen with a smile on his face and said: "Young Master Chu, it is indeed my fault, but the rumors are tight these days, if you are not careful and you are caught, it will be over. My brothers are too There are old people on the top and young people on the bottom. If life wasn’t difficult, I wouldn’t be in this line of work. If something happens to me due to my negligence, I’ll be ashamed to see their family members. Please bear with me..."

Having said that, he added another sentence: "Young Master Chu, don't worry, I will guarantee your satisfaction for the next thing. If you finally let you go back empty-handed, then I will pay back ten times the loss of your trip today." !"

"Since you have said so, old horse, then I will wait and see..."

Seeing that Chu Chen was not going to pursue it for the time being, Lao Ma quickly took out his mobile phone and made a call. After a while, someone knocked on the door again. After Ma Xiaoqiang went to open the door, he saw a man who was also in his 30s. The five big and three thick men walked in carrying a bag like Lao Cai.

The man came in without saying anything nonsense, and took out the things in the bag one by one.

The first one is what Ma Xiaoqiang said before, the five-color cloud and dragon pattern lid box, this box is square, and the corners are retracted, and the local people in JDZ call it "Wojiao".The mouth of the child and the mother are tightly combined up and down.The enamel of the box is as bright as jade, and the carcass is finely made.

The whole body of the box is decorated with five colors. The top of the cover box is painted with consecrated double dragons playing with pearls, decorated with cloud patterns of different shapes; the shoulders of the box are painted with dragon patterns of different shapes.The box has elegant colors, neat and neat pictures, rich and colorful fillings, and dense decoration layout, which is a typical decoration of "Daming Wucai".
