Jianbao life

Chapter 876 Fahua Porcelain (continued)
Hearing what Chu Chen said, the three of Uncle Wu couldn't help but frowned. Is this the real thing?It shouldn't be. Could it be that the brothers are all wrong?

Not to mention the surprise of Uncle Wu and the others, the old man immediately showed a smile on his face after hearing what Chu Chen said, that's right!Otherwise, the last time I went to Jin Province for nothing, not to mention the loss of the jade pendant, I would have lost my face in front of my colleagues.

However, what Chu Chen said next changed the mood of both parties. Chu Chen looked at the fahua colored porcelain pot and sighed: "It's a pity that this is an imitation. If it was made 500 years earlier , it's perfect!"

"what!"

The old man was stunned immediately, and after a while, he came back to his senses, and asked with an unbelievable expression: "You mean, this thing is not replaceable?!"

"Yes! No matter how you look at this artifact, it should be a very exquisite fahua colored porcelain. At first, I thought it was a genuine piece."

Chu Chen sighed a little: "But if you look carefully, this artifact lacks some traces of historical precipitation. I think Dad and you should have seen this, right?"

"Yes! We also feel this." Uncle Wu nodded repeatedly.

Hearing this, the old man frowned, and said expressionlessly: "But just feeling, can't prove that my things are fakes?"

Chu Chen smiled slightly and said, "Senior, this item of yours is a counterfeit, not a counterfeit. A counterfeit is a fake, but a counterfeit is meticulously imitated with the best materials and the most outstanding craftsmanship. In addition, although this fahuacai porcelain is imitated, it is not without flaws."

"What, what's wrong?" The old man asked in surprise. If feeling alone can't be used as the basis for identifying the authenticity of something, but finding the flaws in something is another matter. This made him start to doubt, could it be Is this fahua colored porcelain of mine really not a genuine one?

Between the old man's surprise and doubt, Chu Chen began to talk eloquently: "First of all, there is a problem with the craftsmanship of this piece of porcelain."

Hearing this, the old man seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world. He sneered and said, "There is a problem with the craftsmanship? You can't joke, right? Everyone knows that Fahua porcelain is made using the vertical powder technique. This thing of mine, Is there any problem with the production of standing powder technology? What a joke!"

Chu Chen chuckled and replied, "If it's genuine, it really shouldn't be made like this."

Seeing that Chu Chen still said the same thing, the old man lost his patience, so he waved his hand and said, "Okay! Okay! I really have nothing to say to you, Lao Zhao, the people you hired are of such a level. I really can't see your sincerity in solving the matter!"

Zhao Xueyi also had a dissatisfied look on his face at this time, and said, "I'm talking about Lao Yi, can you listen to Xiao Chen's words? Does this mean that you are sincere in solving the matter?"

The old man also said angrily: "I have come up with something that sells for one-third higher than the previous flower cup, am I still not sincere?"

Zhao Xueyi said loudly: "If what you brought out is right, then I will immediately agree without saying a word, but is what you took out right?"

"Why is it wrong! If you just feel wrong, you can prove that this is not the real thing?!"

The old man said angrily: "And this one is even more outrageous. He actually said that Huaci is made by the vertical powder process and it is wrong. What a big joke!"

Chu Chen was also a little angry at this time, and said loudly: "The pottery-bodied fahua ware indeed uses the standing powder technique in color painting. It uses a special mud bag with a tube to pile up the outline of the convex line and then fill it in. Fahua glaze is fired in a kiln at low temperature. But your Fahua ware is a porcelain body fired by Porcelain City, which is basically two kinds of craftsmanship! Don’t you understand this point?”

"That's right!" Uncle Wu clapped his hands together: "Why didn't I expect that the porcelain body of the Ming Dynasty Porcelain City kiln fired porcelain with patterns on the carcass first, then fired it into a plain body, and then put it on The glaze is applied on the tread. It is fired in the kiln for the second time at low temperature. And this jar is formed in one time, and it is not the craft of the Ming Dynasty Porcelain Capital Kiln at all.”

"Old Yi, what else do you want to say?" Zhao Xueyi sneered. Originally, he was very happy that the old man could take the initiative to come up with something that was much more valuable than the flower goblet he had before. But as soon as something came into his eyes, he felt something was wrong, and not only him, Uncle Wu and Zhu Dafu also felt something was wrong.

If three seasoned collectors feel that something is wrong, then no matter how good such a thing is, they will not want it.If the old man can change one at this time, he will not say anything, but the old man insists that the thing is genuine, and he doesn't even have the patience to wait for Chu Chen to finish speaking, and his tone is so aggressive, how can this not make him feel angry ?

Moreover, Zhao Xueyi had known the old man for quite some time, and knew that his eyesight was quite good. He couldn't believe it, the old man really couldn't see anything wrong.

The old man's face was blue and white for a while, and finally he said, "Maybe it was imitated by the Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China?"

Zhao Xueyi frowned and said: "Let's not talk about other things, just based on its production level, and the whiteness and firmness of the tire, do you think it might be imitated by the Qing Dynasty or the Republic of China? Lao Yi, drilling eyes is a normal thing, and you Why bother holding on? Besides, the three of us didn’t see any problem with this thing, so what’s there to be ashamed of?”

The old man sighed, and said with a wry smile: "I don't think I feel ashamed, but I used a piece of jade pendant that I had been coiling for five years in exchange for this thing, and I feel distressed when I think about it!"

Hearing this, Zhao Xueyi said in disbelief: "No way, you are willing to change the jade pendant that has been on the market for five years?"

"Isn't it that the other party only trades it and doesn't sell it?" The old man smiled coyly, "But the quality of the jade pendant itself is not very good, and it is not expensive at all."

Zhao Xueyi shook his head and said, "It's not about whether it's expensive or not. If you don't like that jade pendant, you can't spend five years buying it, right?"

"Yes! I like the carving of that jade pendant very much. It's a pity when I think about it now!"

The old man sighed slightly, and then said: "Okay, let's not talk about it! Little brother, I was really sorry just now! Let me ask, is there anything wrong with this thing?"

"Old sir, you are polite..."

Chu Chen waved his hand, expressing that he didn't care, and then pointed out two other problematic places, but these two places are not very obvious, even experienced experts, if they don't look carefully, they may not necessarily see it. out.

"Hey! Now I know what it means to be afraid of the younger generation!" The old man sighed again, and he didn't know whether he was lamenting his old age or regretting his jade.

The scene was silent for a moment, then Zhao Xueyi said, "I said Lao Yi, how can we solve this matter today!"

"How else can I solve it? I'll bring you another piece!"

As he said that, the old man stood up and walked towards the back room. While walking, he said, "Old Zhao, I am really bad when I meet you. Both good things are fakes."

Zhao Xueyi chuckled and ignored him. When he entered the back room, he said in a low voice: "Don't look at what he said is pitiful. He has been playing antiques for more than ten years. Could it be that he doesn't see any problems?"

Everyone smiled. Except for Fang Jinbo, who has not been in the industry for a long time, none of the others here knows that the antique business is good. They are all acting. It is quite normal to call dead things alive.

Sometimes Chu Chen also thinks, if all the antique sellers go to act in movies, it is estimated that many movie stars will be brought to the world movie world.

After a while, the old man came back to his place with a brocade box. During this time, Chu Chen also introduced Qi Baofu and Fang Jinbo to Uncle Wu and the others.

Seeing the old man open the lid of the box, Zhao Xueyi smiled and said, "I said, Lao Yi, this time you should be more reliable with what you take!"

The old man blew his beard and stared and said, "What are you talking about, if the high-quality products in the store are all high imitations or fakes, then what business am I doing? If this thing is not right, I will pay you to buy it that day. Spend double the money for Gu."

"Hey, that's what you said!"

Zhao Xueyi giggled, and then looked into the box, but when he saw what was inside, he couldn't help being slightly taken aback: "Hey, why does this look like a vessel from Shiwan Kiln!"

The old man nodded and said, "Yes, it's an autumn leaf wash from Shiwan Kiln."
Zhao Xueyi washed out the autumn leaves and said, "I said Lao Yi, why do you always bring out these kiln things?"

Shiwan kiln is famous for its good imitation of Jun kiln.Imitation Jun glaze colors are blue, rose purple, emerald hair glaze, etc., but there are innovations in imitation.Moreover, this kiln is not only good at imitating Jun, but also imitating the famous kilns of Song Dynasty. The products of Guan, Ge, Ru and Jun kilns in Song Dynasty are imitated vividly and creatively in terms of material use, technical processing, artistic modeling and other aspects. development of.

However, Shiwan kiln is one of the famous folk kilns in Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it is a local kiln mouth in south of Lingnan. It is rare in the north. In terms of national popularity, it is almost the same as the Fahua kiln just now.That's why Zhao Xueyi said that.

The old man was a little displeased when he heard the words, and said, "Why, is the stuff from Shiwan Kiln so bad? If you don't want it, I can't bear to give it to you!"

Zhao Xueyi smiled and said: "What are you talking about, when did I say something is not good? Since you don't want to give it to me, I don't want it either. You can pay me back the money I paid for the flower cup that day!"

After speaking, he put the things back in the box.

"Okay, okay! Old Zhao, you are so old, don't get angry at every turn!"

The old man showed his words and smiled, quickly took the things out of the box and put them in front of Zhao Xueyi.

"Cut! If the tiger doesn't show its power, you treat me like a sick cat, chirping like I didn't give you any money! You really use me as a stick!" Zhao Xueyi sneered secretly, and then picked up the things and looked at them carefully.
