"Oh, let's experience the fun of picking up leaks on Taobao. You are also interested in this. Let me tell you, the water in this industry is very deep." After hearing Wang Gang's words, Chen Yi couldn't help but shake his head and said with a smile.
Having been in the antiques circle for a long time, Chen Yi also knows how powerful the craftsmanship of making fakes in this industry is. Even some experts may be able to spot them. If you want to pick up the leaks, you must have a very deep level.
If he didn't have an appraisal system, even with Gao Cunzhi's teachings, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to achieve what he is now. It is estimated that the result of his studies in the past few years is to be able to appraise some modern things in an antique shop. Therefore, he does not want to When I was young, I stepped into this deep pit.
"Brother Yi, I don't want to enter the antique shop. I just want to follow you to experience the experience of picking up missing items on Taobao. In the future, I can also brag to others that I went shopping for treasures with antique master Chen Yi." Wang Gang quickly waved his hand and said, I also know that the antique business is very deep, and not everyone can find treasures or find missing ones. It is true that many people have been deceived.
Chen Yi was a little funny, "Boy, what's the point of bragging? Since you want to experience it, let's go now."
Although Fengyang County is not big, it still has an antique city. Of course, this antique city is said to be a city, but in fact it is just a renovated small street. Compared with the antique city in Haoyang, there is Pan Tianjing. Home, that's too far away. It's more like an antique market than an antique city.
"Haha, Brother Yi, that's great. I want to see your Taobao picking process." Wang Gang suddenly became excited after hearing Chen Yi's words.
Then, Chen Yi went in and said hello to his parents and Shen Yujun. Let Xuelang and Big Blue and Little Blue stay at home. Then he and Wang Gang walked out of the house.
"Brother Yi. I think it's inappropriate for you to go out and search for things like this." Seeing Chen Yi's appearance, Wang Gang said.
Chen Yi looked at his clothes and asked with some confusion: "Is there something inappropriate about it?"
"Brother Yi, you still don't know your fame. The news that you appeared on the treasure hunt show spread throughout Qinxi Province a few days ago. Many people in Fengyang know about it. I guess you are in the Fengyang antique circle. "No one knows, no one knows. If someone recognizes you, then we won't miss it on Taobao, but we will give it to others." Wang Gang said with urgency.
Chen Yi sighed and smiled. When he went shopping with Shen Yujun these days, some people did recognize him. There were strangers and some familiar people. If it were another time. He won't have any worries, and his show just ended yesterday. People have a deep impression of him, and it is probably easy to recognize him. This is the trouble caused by fame.
None of the people who set up stalls in the Antique City are simple, each one is more powerful than the other. Once they recognize him, it is estimated that the things he picks will be suspected by these stall owners, and it is possible that he will not sell them directly. of.
"Then how should I dress up?" Chen Yi asked Wang Gang with a smile.
Wang Gang looked at Chen Yi, and then said: "Wear a peaked cap and sunglasses, and no one will be able to recognize you."
"Good idea, wait for me." Chen Yi nodded and returned home. When he walked out, he was already wearing a peaked cap on his head and sunglasses on his face. If he was not a particularly familiar person, he would not be able to tell at all. This will be Chen Yi.
"Brother Yi, that's it. Even if I don't look carefully, I won't recognize you." Seeing this, Wang Gang said with relief.
"Okay, let's set off. We spent so much effort to go to the antique city, and if we don't find a treasure, I'm really sorry for this trip." Chen Yi shook his head and smiled.
"Hey, Brother Yi, I'm just waiting for your words, let's go." Wang Gang chuckled, got into the car with Chen Yi, and headed towards the antique city in the county.
Soon, Chen Yi and Wang Gang arrived at the Antique City. After parking the car nearby, they slowly walked over. At the entrance of this street, there was also an archway with the names of Fengyang Antique City written on it. Big letters.
Looking at the archway, Chen Yi twirled his peaked cap and walked in with Wang Gang. Fengyang County is not large in area, but its population is very large. Therefore, there are also many people in the antique city. It seems that the entire antique street is lively.
Chen Yi has not been to this antique city a few times. After all, he can't stay at home for more than a few days throughout the year. He basically spends his time relaxing at home or visiting the commercial street with his family.
The left and right sides of this street are also filled with antique stalls, but next to the stalls are antique shops.
"Brother Yi, I used to come to the antique city from time to time, butAfter looking at them for a long time, I couldn’t tell which one was valuable. "Looking at this bustling antique city, Wang Gang said helplessly.
Chen Yi smiled and said, "If you haven't gone through professional studies, you won't be able to tell. However, in this antique circle, some counterfeiters are very skilled. Without a certain degree of vision, even if you are a senior collector, you may be deceived. "
Just like the Shen Quan painting he saw on TV, in the eyes of some collectors, this painting is probably a treasure, because the whole painting looks very old, and it feels like it is genuine at first Same.
In fact, this is not the case. Although the fakes are newly made, they can be made exactly the same as the originals through various means of making them old.
"Hey, two young men, you are here to pick up treasures, right? Take a look at my place. I have bricks and tiles from Qin and Han Dynasties, porcelain and jade from Song Dynasty. I guarantee that you can find treasures." Seeing Chen Yi and the other two Wandering on the street, some antique stall owners nearby said hello immediately.
Chen Yi looked at the things on these stalls and smiled without saying a word. These things were basically fakes. With his eyesight, he could see clearly without the need for identification skills.
He did not immediately use the treasure hunting technique, but kept wandering around the surrounding stalls, picking up one or two items from time to time to look at them, asking the price, and then putting them down again.
Following Chen Yi, Wang Gang didn't feel particularly bored. There were so many strange things here that it was almost dazzling. With this kind of curiosity, he wouldn't feel bored at all, but this was not what he expected. , but Chen Yi’s Taobao experience.
When passing by a stall, Chen Yi looked at the stall. When he saw one of the things, a smile appeared on his face and he asked Wang Gang to squat down.
"Hey, young man, if you want anything, just take a look and I'll give you the lowest price, I guarantee. All the things in my stall are genuine." Seeing Chen Yi and Wang Gang squat down, the stall owner smiled. greeted.
Chen Yi smiled, took a casual look at the stall, and then picked out two items, "Boss, how much are these two items? Please give me the real price."
"Hey, young man, the two items you picked up are both good things, especially this purple jade pendant, which is emerald." The stall owner casually looked at the two items picked out by Chen Yi, and then said with a smile. .
Chen Yi picked up the purple jade pendant and tossed it in his hand, "Boss, it turns out this is jade. I have never seen jade with such a dark luster, and it seems to be full of impurities. I think it is Glassware."
Hearing Chen Yi's ridicule, the stall owner coughed immediately, knowing that Chen Yi was a somewhat capable person, "Hey, young man, this is not glass, it is crystal. Purple crystal is very rare. Two pieces plus one, you give me How about a thousand."
"One thousand, boss, you are cheating me. I just think these two things are good and I just want to play with them. The maximum is two hundred." Chen Yi bargained without hesitation.
"Young man, the price I gave you is already very fair, the lowest price is eight hundred." The stall owner dropped two hundred.
In the end, Chen Yi settled the deal for 400 yuan. Taking these two items, he greeted the stall owner, then called Wang Gang and left the stall.
"Brother Yi, aren't these two treasures?" Wang Gang said excitedly when he saw the two pieces of jade in Chen Yi's hands.
Chen Yi smiled, broke the white jade pendant into two halves with his hands, and threw it into a nearby trash can, "Brother Yi, why did you throw away this jade pendant and break it into two?" Half."
"Haha, Gangzi, if that thing was jade, I wouldn't be able to break it. You must know that the hardness of jade is very high. Ordinary people can't break it with their hands. It's just made of glass. It's just something, if worn for a long time, it will be harmful to the body, and this purple jade pendant is the real treasure." Chen Yi pinched the purple jade pendant in his hand and said with a smile.
"Brother Yi, I think this thing is not as beautiful as the one you just threw away. How can it be a treasure?" Wang Gang asked with doubts when he saw the purple jade pendant in Chen Yi's hand.
Chen Yi smiled and looked at the jade pendant in his hand. It was a gourd-shaped jade pendant. To be precise, it cannot be called jade, but should be called a gemstone. Speaking of which, he got the identification system Finally, the second treasure found was this kind of gem, tourmaline.
At that time, an old lady came to the store to sell family heirlooms. She first went to Boss Wang's store and was kicked out, and then she went to Uncle Liu's treasure house.
And what this old lady is holding is a tourmaline, also a gourd-shaped thing, also purpleIt's beautiful, so when seeing this thing, Chen Yi was full of nostalgia.
However, the carving of this tourmaline is much better than that of the old lady, and the color is also higher. Although there are certain impurities in it, these impurities make the tourmaline even more charming. (To be continued)
