    I saw that the lake was crystal clear, and it was easy to see the small fish in the lake swimming happily. There were several golden weeping willow trees planted by the lake. Now in this season, the sun is covered by thick shade, and the past is full of green.  It is an intoxicating sight that makes people feel that the summer heat has dissipated a lot in an instant.  Coupled with the intersection of the east and west of the gourd-shaped lake, there is an antique small bridge, and the whole picture gives people a beautiful scene of a small bridge and flowing water.  What beautiful sights he saw made Chu Chen hesitate. When buying a house in the future, should he buy a courtyard house or a residence full of simple natural scenery?  On the east side of the lake, between the shady weeping willows, there is an exquisite octagonal pavilion.  At this time, a white-haired old man and a slim young girl were sitting in the pavilion. The two of them were drinking tea and chatting. On the wooden table in the center of the pavilion, there was a brocade box, which should be  The Tianhuang longevity ornament that Liu Qinshu mentioned just now.  When the old man saw Uncle Wu and the others arriving, he greeted them and said, "Ziping, you are here. This is your nephew? He looks very energetic." "Hello, Mr. Liu." Uncle Wu and he  Chu Chen first stepped forward to greet Mr. Liu, and then Uncle Wu replied: "Yes, this is my nephew, Chu Chen. I was the one who brought us into this industry, and now he has made some achievements in porcelain."  After hearing this, Mr. Liu said with some joy and emotion: "It's good to have achievements. Our industry needs new blood to join. The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Our generation is already old!" Hearing what Mr. Liu said,  Li Beibei immediately complimented: "Grandpa Liu, you are still a precious sword, but you are still a wave in the Yangtze River." Everyone laughed softly when they heard what she said.  After Li Beibei greeted Uncle Wu, she said slyly: "Uncle Wu, this is your nephew. He looks like a human being. I wonder if he is really as powerful as you said?" Chu Chen  Hearing what she said, there was a wry smile on her face. She thought that she must have suffered a terrible disaster following Wu Ke, and she murmured in her heart, "If you have the ability, go fight Wu Ke. Why are you venting your anger on others?"  Li Beibei's appearance is comparable to that of Wu Ke. She is about 1.7 meters tall. Her facial features are very delicate, but she has a heroic appearance. However, Wu Ke's style is different. She looks like a  Xiaojiabiyu.  The key is that Li Beibei's chest is indeed very majestic, and she can indeed be called a cow. If she were on the street, with her beauty and figure, the rate of men turning heads should be 100%.  Chu Chen would definitely look at such a beauty more often on the road, but that was just an appreciation of beauty. When it came to liking, he still preferred Wu Ke's type. Of course, Wu Ke's character  He still couldn't bear it. ?????????? It¡¯s not bad to get to know such a beautiful woman in normal times, and it doesn¡¯t matter if you are not biased, but today is a very important day for Chu Chen, which is related to his future development in the antique industry.  When meeting Mr. Liu for the first time, he didn't want anything to go wrong because of Li Beibei's prejudice and Mr. Liu would have a bad impression of him.  "You kid." Mr. Liu has heard some of the grievances between Li Beibei and Wu Ke, and knows why she said that, but what she said makes sense. Whether it's powerful or not, it can't be said with her mouth.  It showed, so he turned to Chu Chen and said: "Well, Beibei is right and reasonable. Just like that, Xiao Chu, Beibei brought a Tianhuang ornament this time, and it's up to you to tell us  "Tell me." "Mr. Qian, this" Uncle Wu became a little anxious when he heard that Mr. Qian actually asked Chu Chen to identify Tian Huang. Although he would usually let Chu Chen know about other antiques besides porcelain.  To learn more about it, he had no confidence in Chu Chen's ability to identify Tian Huang since he was specialized in the art.  Seeing Uncle Wu's anxious look, Mr. Liu smiled and said: "Ziping, if Xiao Chu is really like what you told me that day, then he will definitely be able to see this ornament. Do you think I will force others to do something difficult?  " Uncle Wu felt a little embarrassed when Mr. Liu said this. Chu Chen gave him a reassuring look, then put the things in his hands aside and looked at the Tianhuang piece in the brocade box.  Birthday ornaments.  Tianhuang, I believe everyone is familiar with it, is a unique "soft gemstone" in my country. It is only produced in a field of less than one square kilometer in Shoushan, Southeast Province of my country in the world. Because its color is generally yellow, it is mainly produced in fields. , so it is called Tianhuangshi.  The material of Tianhuang stone is warm, moist and greasy, which can be said to be the first among soft carved stones.  In the Ming and Qing dynasties, Tian Huang wasIt was presented to the imperial palace as a tribute and carved into royal seals and artistic ornaments. Therefore, Tianhuang stone is also revered as the "King of Stones" and "Emperor of Stones", so its value is unparalleled.  Therefore, since ancient times, Tianhuang stone has been said to be "one tael of Tianhuang and ten taels of gold". However, after so many years of mining, Tianhuang has become increasingly rare. In recent years, the price has been rising year after year, so that some people regard it as  The previous saying was changed to "one or two fields of yellow and ten thousand taels of gold", which shows how precious it is.  However, Tianhuang has been flooded with fakes since ancient times because of its preciousness. Nowadays, with the development of science and technology, fake Tianhuang is everywhere, such as using chemical dyeing methods to make fake leather, using other stones with similar colors and textures to pass off, etc.  Such tactics are really hard to guard against, so when buying Tianhuang, you must keep your eyes open.  Before Chu Chen picked up the ornament, Bao Jue reminded him that this thing was valuable. When Tian Huang got it in his hand, it was also very gentle and delicate, just like the real Tian Huang. However, up to now, it has not been proven that this thing is valuable.  Tianhuang's ornaments were genuine, and Chu Chen knew that there were several imitations that also had such characteristics and had their own value.  Then, Chu Chen took out a flashlight and a magnifying glass, carefully observed the ornament bit by bit, and then put the ornament back into the box.  Seeing this, Mr. Liu asked him: "Xiao Chu, what do you think?" "Then I will tell you my thoughts. However, I am not very knowledgeable. If there is anything I said wrong or did not say the right thing, what should I say?  Please forgive me." Chu Chen was modest at first, and then continued: "This Tianhuang birthday star ornament is carefully carved, and the beard is intricately carved. It can be said to be quite charming, and at first glance,  The craftsmanship and carvings look like they were made in the middle of the Qing Dynasty. "It seems that you are really as good as Uncle Wu said." Li Beibei looked happy when she heard what Chu Chen said.  Seeing this, Liu Qinshu smiled and said: "Beibei, you are twenty-four, why are you still so impatient? Let Xiao Chu finish his words first." When Li Beibei heard Liu Qinshu's words, she stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.  It looks really playful and cute.  Seeing her look like this, Chu Chen couldn't help but froze, then quickly turned his attention back and said apologetically: "Miss Li, I'm really sorry. I just said that it looked like a work from the mid-Qing Dynasty at first glance. In fact,  This ornament should actually be a contemporary one. "How is this possible?" Li Beibei became anxious when she heard what he said.  Seeing her look like this, Mr. Liu comforted her and said, "Okay, Beibei, don't be impatient. No matter how impatient you are, the fake can't become the real. Let's first listen to Xiao Chu's explanation of what's going on."  Because Tianhuang is so precious, if you buy the wrong one, you will suffer considerable losses. Especially this ornament, which is estimated to weigh about one hundred grams. Even if this piece of Tianhuang is not very good, it should still cost hundreds of thousands.  s price.  Seeing this, Chu Chen could only give her an apologetic look, then picked up the ornament and explained to everyone: "Actually, this ornament is neither real nor real. It is real because of its use.  The Tian Huang is real, but it is said to be untrue because it is made up of small pieces of Tian Huang." Hearing this, Li Beibei wanted to interrupt again, but was stopped by Liu Qinshu in time.  Seeing this, Chen smiled faintly, then used a strong flashlight to shine on a location on the ornament and said: "If it is a real Tianhuang stone, its red checkered pattern must be continuous, and its characteristics should also be the same.  . Everyone, please see, the red plaid here is developed and continuous, and here, the characteristics of the red plaid are somewhat different from that of the previous place. " "Let's look at the radish pattern again, the genuine field.  Yellow, the radish pattern is relatively consistent in thickness, evenly distributed, well-proportioned, and continuous. However, here, the thickness is obviously inconsistent and disconnected. From these two points, it can be seen that this ornament is  It¡¯s a patchwork of Tianhuang. ¡°Of course there is another way to identify it. If you have a needle, just burn it red with fire, and then stick it in the places I just pointed out.  After a while, there should be smoke. This is the phenomenon that occurs after the adhesive melts. " "But from these two points, it can also be seen that the person who made the old ornament is a master.  The first is the material he chose. The carrot pattern and red plaid pattern inside are relatively similar. If you don't observe it very carefully, you may have missed it. " "Moreover, this man's carving skills are also good.  He is particularly clever. He used clever techniques to cover up the joints, making them look not stiff at all. Moreover, after the carving was completed, he should have used powder ground from Tianhuang stone to blend the joints.  Covered up again, it looks even more fake.??.  " "However, although this ornament is made of patchwork Tian Huang, the Tian Huang used and the carving work are still good, so it is still somewhat valuable. I don't know how much you paid for it, Miss Li.  If the money is small, it is appropriate.  ¡± But looking at Li Beibei¡¯s troubled expression, she must have spent a lot of money when buying it.
