A legendary happy life

As soon as the pattern plate was taken out, Elder Gao never left his eyes, and his expression was no longer as loving and leisurely as before.Put down your glasses after half an hour.

Xu Nanyu hurriedly asked: "Old Gao, how are you doing?"

Jokingly said: "It's not like Mr. Li because of his impatient temper, he is the one who doesn't change his face before the collapse of Mount Tai."

Sorry to smile. "Excuse me for being rude, kid."

Lian said, "Tell me your opinion."

At this time, I didn’t care about being modest, Xu Nanyu said bluntly: "I just feel a little unreal, this thing is too new, it hardly looks like it has passed 300 years. It is characterized by bright fighting colors, but it can still be bright after 300 years So it seems a little unrealistic."

Shake your head. "Doucai is a special pigment prepared by secret method. It is durable in the first place. If it is properly maintained, it is not impossible for it to remain as bright as before."

Modesty should be 'yes'.

"How much do you know about Zhou Boxiu?" Elder Gao asked.

After organizing his words, he replied: "I heard that Mr. Li said that he is an arrogant paranoid. He has superb skills but has no knowledge. Six years ago, he was on the verge of failure, and he was absolutely unwilling to reconcile with his arrogant temper. Mr. Li just asked me to pay more attention to prevent him from making a comeback."

Nod, sigh again. "Zhou Fang, you have brought misery to our generation."

I heard that Mr. Li said that when everyone was in danger, the news that the first-class experts were eye-catching got out, and the Qing Yongzheng Doucai porcelain, which was originally a hot trend, fell into the cold. "Then Gao, this one?"

Shake your head. "Half to say, half to be sure, half to be not sure. If Mr. Li came in person, maybe the fortune would be better." Although Mr. Gao was an old man, he said that he was a "top expert" with vicious eyes, but Qing Yongzheng Porcelain is not his strong point, and it is not easy to get a [-]/[-] chance of winning.

"But Mr. Li is in Xinzhou now, and it will be too late to come here in time." This is also the reason why Mr. Gao was nearby.

He pondered and said: "There is another extreme method of identification."

"how?"

"Smashing. It can imitate the outer porcelain body, but not the inner porcelain body. No matter how exquisite the craftsmanship is, there will always be a difference from the heyday of fighting colors three hundred years ago."

Knowing that this is a counterfeit, it is impossible for him to put it up for auction again. Xu Nanyu gritted his teeth and called Li Tai, explained the reason and finally said: "...the 200 million plate, I bid the auction for 450 million."

Elder Gao looked at him in surprise. He did not expect that a person who does not show his talents would throw out a huge sum of 450 million in the blink of an eye. This kind of persistent spirit of seeking the truth agrees and encourages him.

Li Tai's steady voice came from the other end of the phone. "No need, just break it, I believe you."

This kind of trust reversal made Xu Nanyu a little awkward, and asked in a low voice, "What if I made a mistake?"

"Then pay for yourself."

He muttered: "I'm only worth a plate? Is it too cheap?" He hung up the phone and nodded to Gao Lao.Wrap the plate with a cloth, borrow a hammer to tighten the opening, and hit it hard with your left hand.

With a crisp sound, the plate shattered into several pieces.Open the cloth bag, pick out one piece and hand it to Elder Gao for appreciation, then take one for yourself, and look at each other with Elder Gao after looking at it.

Elder Gao sighed and put down the fragments. "This is an imitation." Qing Yong was the heyday of porcelain, and the fired porcelain was not only delicate and beautiful on the outside, but also compact on the inside, and there were no small bubbles that appear at the fracture.After reading all the broken porcelain, he changed his mind and said, "However, we can only confirm that this is a high-quality imitation, but it cannot prove that this is what Zhou Boxiu imitated." The shock that Zhou Boxiu brought to them was so great that he There is a feeling that as long as it is not imitated by Zhou Boxiu, there will be no big waves.

Xu Nanyan paused when he heard the words. He remembered reading a piece of news, saying that the biggest flaw of this imitation was in the most obvious place. It can be said that Zhou Boxiu fooled all the experts!Put the tiles on the coffee table one by one, and take a magnifying glass to look at them inch by inch.I asked Mr. Gao for a pen and paper, and while looking at it, I traced the pattern on the pattern plate onto the white paper.

Although it was the simplest description, it made Gao Lao jump up from the sofa in shock.The exquisite and elegant branches with twining patterns suddenly show the word "Zhou Fang" in the abstract!The pattern is printed on the pattern plate, and the pattern plate cannot be seen from a round angle, but when the pattern is placed on the plane paper, it is extremely clear and almost clear at a glance.

After Xu Nanyu finished describing the whole figure, he couldn't help admiring Zhou Boxiu's skillful technique and arrogance when looking at the figure.The flaws are exposed in the most obvious place, but it is hard for people to see it. This brilliance makes people have to admire.

Elder Gao picked up the pattern and compared it with the pattern on the tile. If the pattern was not moved to a flat surface, no one would have noticed such a big mystery hidden in the pattern.Putting down the blueprint, Elder Gao looked at Xu Nanyu with relief, deeply feeling that someone would follow them to keep him alive.After taking the phone and calling Li Laozhi, he said, "It seems that our old bones are not yet ready for rest."

Xu Nanyu didn't know what Elder Li said on the phone, and after only half an hour, someone came to the door and recorded all the discovery process of the pattern plate into written records, recorded the entire pattern plate with high-definition equipment, and even traced his handwriting. The pattern was collected and put into a sealed bag in its entirety.

During this, Elder Gao has already called everyone he knows.An hour later, another old man came to the door, and after knowing the situation of the plate, he saw the abstract word "Zhou Fang" on the plane pattern, and his face was so dark that ink dripped from the corner of his eyes.

According to Gao Lao's introduction, the old man's surname is Luo, he is an expert of the same age as them, but he is also one of the worst people who were killed by Zhou Fang back then.

Luo Lao is worthy of being a top expert in porcelain, and he made sophisticated professional comments while looking at the patterns on the plate. One thing was explained clearly and clearly by him, and it was easy to listen to.

As five o'clock approached, news of the reappearance of 'Zhou Fang' spread to everyone in the circle. 27 top domestic experts jointly posted posts. The posts first went to antique shops, then to auction houses, and finally to collectors. 27 top experts are divided into 8 batches, and the whole country sets up points to appraise Qing Yongzheng porcelain, and only things with their appraisal certificate and seal can be regarded as genuine products.

All parties are in conflict, and one can imagine how many jaws would drop in shock to those who received this post.

Mr. Li is also one of the 27 top experts. His route was to go directly south from Xinzhou. Xu Nanyu wanted to follow but was rejected by the other party, so he was asked to follow Mr. Gao and Mr. Luo from Beijing to the coastal area.Mr. Li's arrangement makes sense, and he has no objection. It was past nine o'clock when the details were finalized. Mr. Gao simply stayed with the guests. At eight o'clock the next day, three people went straight to the appraisal place, the largest century-old restaurant in Liulichang Street. Antique shop 'Guweizhai'.

The boss of Guweizhai received him personally, and led them up to the reception room on the third floor. The other two top experts, Mr. Liang and Mr. Qu, had already arrived, and they were studying yesterday's matter with materials.Seeing that the real master has come, put down the materials and start a discussion.Hearing that Xu Nanyu was the one who really discovered 'Zhou Fang', they all gave a thumbs up and praised Mr. Li for taking in a good apprentice.

Xu Nanyu humbly offered tea to everyone.There are only 27 top experts in the country, and it is difficult to meet them at ordinary times, but because of this incident, there are four of them at first sight, and he was specially approved to follow the four of them to set up a "Zhou Fang" appreciation point, which can be said to be a high starting point. Can't recognize Zhou Fang, but definitely leaps and bounds in porcelain.

At 08:30, the appraisal officially started.The first one is a Qing Yongzheng famille rose vase purchased by 'Guweizhai' a while ago. It is elegant in style and smooth in lines. It is a fine product of official kilns.As an antique shop, it can produce such exquisite and exquisite official kiln products, which shows that it has strong strength.

The four experts shied away, and Mr. Luo, who specializes in porcelain, made the first comment. "Famille deer plum bottle in Yongzheng Qing Dynasty, everyone is an old friend, so I won't show off. It is 16cm high, 3.2cm in diameter, and 6.1cm in foot diameter. It is a typical style of Yongzheng in Qing Dynasty. Fencai porcelain is also called soft color porcelain. , one of the four traditional porcelains in Jingdezhen, is a new variety of overglaze color created by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty based on the creation of multicolored porcelain and influenced by the production process of enamel porcelain. , with clear layers, and the technique tends to be freehand brushwork pastoral style; the regular script of the base is "Yongzheng Year of the Qing Dynasty". "Looking up at the three old friends with a smile, I said, "I appraise that this is the real thing."

The three old experts looked at each other and smiled, and Elder Gao joked: "On porcelain, Lao Luo, you are an expert among experts, and those of us who make soy sauce will not express our opinions."

The boss of Baiweizhai who was staying next to him was greatly relieved when he heard the words. He spent a lot of money to get it from others for appearance. If it was a fake, he would probably lose his pants.

As an expert follower, Xu Nanyu helped stamp and write the appraisal letter, and handed it to the four old men for signature. Fortunately, he was able to use regular script, otherwise it would be a big embarrassment.

Elder Gao glanced at his writing, nodded and said, "That's right, it has the skeleton of Elder Li."

He blushed next to him. "Only learning the superficial." Mr. Li's regular script is like a green pine and stone bell when he is upright; he is like flowing clouds and water when he is smooth; he is like a dragon and a dragon dancing when he is arrogant.Beautiful, unique style, very similar to people.

Elder Qu also laughed and said, "It's pretty good for young people to have such a good handwriting."

Old Liang and Old Luo nodded with a smile.

To be so praised by four top experts, Xu Nanyu felt that it was worth the time and energy spent on writing [-]-word practice notes every day.

The second piece was also sent by an antique shop, Qing Yongzheng famille rose.The third, the fourth, the fifth...

Zhou Fang encouraged the four experts to look at each piece carefully, and it took a lot more time than usual. It was near noon that they saw the seventh piece, and there were [-] pieces in total. The stuff is less than half.For speed, condense lunch and breaks into one hour.

"Qing Yongzheng Blue and White Wrapping Branch Vase, I have identified it as genuine."

Xu Nanyu looked at the other three experts, and after getting the same appraisal result, she immediately immersed herself in writing the appraisal.As soon as he put down his pen, someone came up to him and told him that someone was looking for him. He asked the four experts for leave and went to another reception room, where Li Tai greeted him.

Li Taila sat down and asked, "How long will you be busy?"

Shaking his head, his face was a little tired. "It will be about five o'clock, and I will fly to Tangshan at seven o'clock in the evening." In Beijing, another group of top experts was appraising at the same time, and the pressure on both sides was not high, so we only stayed for one day.After transferring to Tangshan, stay for one day, and then transfer to Tianjin for two days. After Tianjin, transfer to Binzhou and then to Qingdao, and then transfer again. The estimated time will take half a month.

Li Tai pointed to the gift bag next to him. "Personal belongings." Give him his usual shoulder bag. "I have all my documents and wallet, and I have prepared some medicine. If I can't sleep on the plane, I will take one. I have a party tonight, so I'm afraid I won't be able to come and see you off."

Shaking his head, he said he was fine, and thought of asking, "By the way, what happened yesterday? The news didn't get out, did it? I dropped the plate, how did you deal with it?"

It is a big taboo for any auction company to change the lot on the spot. If the reputation is damaged, it will directly affect the credibility; if it is serious, it will withdraw from the auction market.It's just that Li Tai doesn't know how to say it, so he said lightly: "I discovered it early, and I changed the lot temporarily." After fooling around, he added water to him and said, "I have arranged for the five teaching assistants to be sent back yesterday, and I will also help you with them." Professor Hou asked for leave."

Opening his mouth wide, he always felt that he missed something. Now when he said it, he remembered the five teaching assistants and asked the professor for leave. If he hadn't mentioned it, he would have almost forgotten that he was in Java!

smile at him. "Professor Hou is very supportive and has granted you an indefinite leave of absence. He said it's okay to come back after you finish your work. He will find someone to follow up your notes on your homework. The rest of the professors will also greet you, so that you can feel at ease and help with the expert team. Yes, the old man is very concerned about this matter, and has already let the public security organs enter, I believe there will be news soon."

After the incident, I had a phone call with Mr. Li, but the other party didn't say how to deal with it, but from the current situation, Mr. Li has issued strict orders.With Li Lao strictly watching, all departments dare not wait too late.Isn't there a saying?As far as the government is concerned, no difficulties are difficulties.Although Mr. Li cannot represent the government, this kind of thing can still have an impact.

"I'll make a call to Professor Hou." He hurriedly pulled out his phone and dialed, first apologized sternly, and promised to go back to class as soon as the matter was over without delay.

Professor Hou is not worried about this, but is extremely concerned about the progress of the expert team. He learned that he didn't find 'Zhou Fang' all morning, so he was just a fluke.Afterwards, he told him to study hard with the expert team, the opportunity is rare, and he also specifically confessed to make a phone call for the latest news.

Xu Nanyu responded with repeated voices, and hung up the phone with a sigh of relief. "It's a good thing you greeted me first, otherwise this matter would be a big offence. The five teaching assistants are not angry with me for leaving first, right?" The teaching assistant is the professor's successor, and it would be unbeautiful to leave a pimple about this matter.

"I have an explanation and an apology on your behalf, and it shouldn't be a problem for Professor Hou to greet the professors."

What he didn't expect, Li Tai thought of it and made him a watertight one, not to mention that he smashed his precious lot this time, and almost caused him a big mess. I blush just thinking about it.I was a little embarrassed to thank you in person, so I coughed lightly: "I invite you to have a big meal when I'm done with work."

raised eyebrows. "I don't eat well."

Khan, it seems that he is a foodie. "Then please watch a movie."

"This is something new, that's good." Get up. "I'll go back and wait for your movie." Walking to the door, he turned around and urged, "Immediately."

Can he smash the cup in his hand?Xu Nanyu thought about it.

The answer is no, because this cup is the property of Guweizhai.At 05:30 when the work is over, the owner of Guweizhai invites guests to have dinner, presents souvenirs during the dinner, a string of Buddhist beads and a large sum of money for writing brushes.Although the pen fee is a lot, it is a drop in the bucket in terms of his net worth, but this is the first income he has received as an appraiser, the meaning is greater than its own value, so keep it safe!
