Li He didn't care if he could smoke here. He lit a cigarette and puffed out a ring of smoke, his chest heaving up and down.
He was even angrier with Li Shubai!
But he still listened to the conversation.
"This Shang Dynasty bronze imperial bell is not right either. First, the decorative lines are not smooth. Second, there is no trace of casting dislocation from the side. Third, the rust color doesn't come from the bronze. It looks like fake rust on the outside …"
"The Inscription on the Pillar is not right either. Huang Tingjian's authentic work has a strange rhythm and a restrained middle edge. But this scroll is immature and the lines are mainly inclined to the front edge. They are flat and sharp, showing off their sharpness. They lack restraint and solemnity. Moreover, they are monotonous and lack of variety. The structure is unrestrained, bluffing, and intimidating. In fact, it lacks the inner essence and lacks the scholarly feel that a yellow book should have."
After an old man in a black vest finished reading it, he threw the eight-meter-long scroll to the ground. In the eyes of a true expert, this was an indisputable and worthless piece of trash!
Li He's heart twitched again.
"Old Ma, that one is not worth looking at. I can see the flesh-red embryo clearly without a flashlight. Those idiots would love it if they saw it. Milky glaze, hehe, it might sell for a good price in Liulichang …" The one who spoke was a bald old man.
“....”
Li He's heart skipped a beat every time he heard a word!
None of the 20 items that had been identified were real!
On the last enamel, the crowd finally couldn't come to a conclusion.
"Old Song, I admit that the other items have problems, but this enamel should be fine, right?
Be it the characters or the landscape, they all have a sense of texture. The light and shade are clear and distinct.
The painting techniques used ranged from meticulous meticulous drawing to subtle meticulous brushwork to penetrating dripping and flowing freely to subtle details. Moreover, in terms of the technique of expression, it progressed from flat filling to light and dark washing and dyeing. In terms of style, the layout and brushwork all had the characteristics of traditional Chinese painting.
I don't believe it!
Tell me one, two, three, four! "
The one who spoke was a short, hunched old man wearing glasses.
On the contrary, the one called Old Song was a tall, spirited old man wearing a black hat. He pointed at the porcelain in front of him and said, "China's earliest enamel wares were made during the Ming Dynasty's Jingtai period. They are known as cloisonné.
Enamel colored porcelain first appeared during the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty and was popular during the Kangxi, Yong, and Qian Dynasties. Enamel colored porcelain, that is, with enamel painted decorative porcelain.
Its production process was different from other types of porcelain. First, the Jingdezhen Imperial Kiln Factory would produce a high-quality white body and send it to the Imperial Palace, where it would be painted by palace painters. Finally, the enamel workshop of the Qing Palace Building Office would carry out a second firing.
This kind of porcelain that needs to be made in two places is an unprecedented feat in the history of ceramics … "
The old man spoke slowly and unhurriedly. However, someone beside him noticed Li He's expression and suddenly interrupted. He kindly reminded Old Song, "Old Song, stop showing off. Everyone knows that. Just say what's important."
"Sorry, sorry." Old Song also realized his problem. These people were paid to do things, so they couldn't waste time. He hurriedly said, "Modern imitations of Yongzheng enamel plates and bowls are more common in the market. Their characteristics are that the carcass is too thin, and the glaze is almost pink and white, but there are also bright green ones. Some of the patterns are exquisite, such as this one in front of us. The blue and white words' Made by Shen De Tang 'are written on the bottom. At first glance, there's nothing wrong with it. However, upon closer inspection, the strokes are weak and loose, especially the blue and white colors.
The most important thing is that this one is obviously old. Everyone here is an expert, so I don't need to say more. Take a closer look. "
As soon as he finished speaking, a few people who knew about porcelain wiped their presbyopic glasses and put them back on. They looked at the porcelain carefully. One of them said, "Old Song, your eyes are really sharp. This color has been polished. After polishing, some dark gray things were painted around the decorative lines to imitate the traces of years of use."
"Yes." Another middle-aged man came over and said, "Since it's marked 'Made by Shende Hall', it must be of high quality. Shende Hall is the residence of the Daoguang Emperor in the Summer Palace, so the wares with this mark should be the emperor's personal use. The porcelain makers of the Manchurian Qing Imperial Palace must have carefully selected these wares and were very serious. Therefore, there must be no shoddy work."
Old Qin glanced at Li He's expression and finally said, "There are a total of 21 items in the photos you gave me. None of them look right."
Although he usually liked to joke around with Li He, he couldn't bear to see Li He like this. He was even too embarrassed to use the word 'counterfeit', afraid that it would provoke Li He.
"Thank you. You've worked hard! "Li He felt like his chest was going to explode!
He had never been bullied like this before!
Even if he had been poor and starved, he had never been bullied like this before!
This Li Shubai had long since decided to take advantage of him!
Otherwise, how could he have gone through so much trouble to bring back so many fakes?
These counterfeits were not something that could be made in a short period of time!
This was a trap that had been set up since the beginning!
This trap was deep enough! Long enough!
The person who set this trap was also very patient!
He was willing to spend more than ten years to set this trap!
More than ten years of feelings were all fake!
Fake!
If it was someone else who lied to him, he wouldn't be so angry. At most, he would blame himself for being blind. He would take revenge and his anger would dissipate. However, the person who lied to him was Li Shubai! This person whom he had always trusted!
Not only did he cheat him of his things, but he also betrayed his feelings!
He suddenly recalled Old Man Zhu's words. When you can be shocked by the twists and turns of a person's life, the joys and sorrows, the joys and sorrows of separation and reunion, you will very likely choose to trust them.
Yes, he was attracted by Old Man Li's legendary life and was deceived by his indifferent appearance!
"Are you alright?" Old Man Qin saw Li He's clenched fists and twitching face. He had never seen this before. He didn't understand what could make this usually calm young man so angry!
Could it be because of these counterfeits?
However, in the world of collecting, it was normal. If one's eyes were not good enough, why complain?
"Qingchun, my cute Qingchun." Li He smiled faintly and said this out of nowhere.
"Mr. Li He, do you want to appraise the other items now?" Wu Shuping looked at Li He with pity and sympathy.
"Everyone, sorry for the trouble. Everyone will be living and eating here for the time being. Please help me appraise the items in this vault." Li He's voice was trembling.
"There are more than a thousand pieces here! It's not something that can be done in a short time. "The bald old man said.
"Yes, everyone has their own jobs. It's fine to take a day or two off, but if it's ten days to half a month, it won't be good." Someone else disagreed.
"Yes, Old Man Qin didn't say there were more than a thousand pieces. This is a lot of work."
“.....”
"Everyone, one million each. I want to know the results within a week!" Li He said loudly and stared at the crowd.
"Ah? One week? What a joke! "Even though some people were shocked by the one million, they had to have the ability to take it!
"Yes, this amount of work can't be completed!"
The number of items here was not small. The 21 items just now had taken 15 to 16 people's effort. Moreover, it was very exhausting to have a good eye. Even if they could not look at ten items in one hour, they could still look at ten items in the next hour.
Wu Shuping suddenly said loudly, "I wonder if anyone knows anyone in Pujiang. Everyone, give me your contact information, and I can go and invite people to join us."
Then, she glanced at Li He. Seeing that he didn't say anything, it was probably a tacit agreement.
"That's fine. Bring me a pen and paper." Finally, someone agreed.
"Little girl, I don't have a phone. I'll give you an address, and you can invite them yourself."
"Rao Xuantang, he's as famous as Wang Shixiang." Someone saw that Wu Shuping was talking big, but he thought of joking.
"Zhao Puchu is also in Pujiang. If you can invite him, you'll have to do it." There was someone who was even more ruthless. Anyway, they were not afraid of making things worse.
Li He said to Wu Shuping expressionlessly, "Go with Dong Hao and invite him over. No matter how much it costs, invite him over."
"Mr. Li, then I'll go first?" Wu Shuping knew that Li He was still wary of her.
Li He nodded, turned around, and went to the innermost place where there was no one else, and smoked one cigarette after another.
He wanted to kill someone!
He had never hated a person so much before. He hated him to the bone!
"Boss Li, what do we do now?" Lan Shifang was worried about Li He, and finally walked over boldly. Standing behind Li He, she could still see his shoulders moving up and down. It was obvious that he was angry.
