Today's forgers definitely cannot use bones to make holes. They all use electric tools or small knives. The patterns formed are generally spiral patterns, which certainly did not exist at the time of the Hongshan Culture. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbOUT??????????????????????????????????????????? At that time, people used animal skins or jade-resolving sand, and rubbed it repeatedly on the jade for polishing. The fat in the animal skin will be released during friction and adhere to the surface of the jade, making the surface of the jade brighter and more moist. Nowadays, people use electromechanical polishing methods. First, they use an electric plastic brush to polish the jade for the first time, which is also called rough polishing. Then they use a hair brush for the second polishing, and finally they use a cotton brush for the second polishing. Fine polish. There are also counterfeiters who use animal skins or jade sand to rub the jade repeatedly. No matter how good these two methods are, they can't achieve the same effect as real Hongshan jade. Generally, you can see it with a magnifying glass. However, Lao Zhou never even took out a magnifying glass from the beginning to the end. , the results can be imagined. Let's talk about "seeing more". If Lao Zhou could know more information, he would know that in the past 20 years from the 1970s and 1980s to the present, only three Jade Pig Dragons have been unearthed, and several more This piece was previously regarded as an animal-shaped jade from the Shang and Zhou dynasties and was collected by the museum. After the Niuliang River Hongshan Cultural Site was excavated, these animal-shaped jades were finally confirmed to be the jade pig dragons of the Hongshan Culture. There were also several other pieces collected from the private sector, totaling about 20 pieces in total. If we look at the number of stone tombs that have been discovered so far, I am afraid that one hundred Jade Pig Dragons is already a limit number. Such a rare quantity could appear casually in the hands of a peasant woman. Anyone who knows a little bit about this will know that this situation must be treated with caution. The most important thing is that if he knows more about the market, he will know that the shape of the jade pig dragon he bought is exactly the same as the jade pig dragon that was sold last autumn. Because of this, when he asked people to look at it, When the appraiser saw it, he immediately laughed. In fact, there are no businessmen in the antique shops who are not very good. Often, if a collection is among these people, they can tell a dead or living story, and they can tell any story. Even Lao Zhou does this kind of thing often. . Therefore, when new people enter the antique industry, it is not terrible to be blinded, and the same is true for stepping on "landmines". But as long as you are not greedy, even if you are blinded or stepped on "landmines", the loss will usually not be much, let alone hurt. The spirit moves the bones, and you can also learn from it. This is the wisdom gained in the antique industry. "However, once you become greedy, you may be ruined, and Lao Zhou is a living example of this. "Hey, Lao Zhou is really crazy about money!" After hearing what Boss Feng said, Chu Chen was also very sad, but he was not surprised by Lao Zhou's ending, because his character is In this way, money and interests are too important, otherwise, he would not have "killed him" in the first place. "Little brother, you are late. Lao Zhou's shop and the goods in it were all transferred to his prodigal son yesterday." Boss Feng shook his head and sighed. Hearing this, Chu Chen was speechless. He had heard of Lao Zhou's son before. He was a complete prodigal. His prodigality was not in eating, drinking and gambling like others, but in antiques. Since Lao Zhou is also engaged in antiques, how can his son lose his fortune by engaging in antiques? This is because Lao Zhou's son did not learn calligraphy and painting appraisal from Lao Zhou, but wanted to collect ancient jade. It doesn't matter if you say that, as long as you study hard, you can become talented. However, he only knew a little bit about it. After learning a little bit, he felt that he was very powerful. The antique jade market should be said to be the hardest hit area for counterfeiting in the antique industry. A beginner like Lao Zhou¡¯s son, who had learned a little bit and could not even handle two knives, plunged into it, and the result was One can imagine. Some newbies in the antiques industry are good at summarizing experience and will learn lessons after looking at them, so that their knowledge will also improve. However, there are a few people among them who not only fail to learn lessons, but also think that what others say is wrong. Yes, you only believe what you think. This kind of person can be said to be possessed by a demon, and no matter how many times you hit him, it won't be enough. And Lao Zhou's son is such a person. Because of this incident, many possessions in Lao Zhou's family were ruined by him. Even Lao Zhou's wife was angry to death, but Lao Zhou's son still did his own thing. Lao Zhou In a fit of anger, he simply stopped caring about it, and his money was cut off. In fact, what happened to Lao Zhou this time also had a little bit of Lao Zhou's son in it. After all, his son was not young anymore. His parents always thought that their children would be able to start a family and start a business. For his son, Lao Zhou wanted to prepare more money. , if you leave in the future, your children's future lives will be guaranteed. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ???Chen felt that with the character of Lao Zhou's son, any amount of money would be lost. You see, Lao Zhou died only a few days ago, and all the shops and other things were changed hands. It is estimated that the money gained, He was about to tinker with his ancient jade again. "Hey, even though my son is like this, he still has some friendship with Lao Zhou, so he still wants to pay his respects." When Chu Chen thought of this, he called Uncle Wu and told him the matter again. When Uncle Wu heard the news, he couldn't believe it at first. After finally hearing what happened, he sighed and sighed. At the end of the phone call, he asked Chu Chen to stay at Baoguo Temple. He immediately rushed over to meet him, and then went to Lao Zhou's house to worship together. Seeing Chu Chen finish the phone call, the boss Feng asked him: "Little brother, are you coming to Lao Zhou to get the goods? Why don't you come to my place to take a look?" Chu Chen smiled lightly when he saw this. Boss Feng probably talked to him so much because he might have business to do, but he didn¡¯t just buy the goods wherever he wanted, as long as his goods could meet his requirements and the price was right, so he smiled and said: "Boss Feng , My name is Chu Chen, you can call me Xiao Chu. When I came to Lao Zhou this time, I was indeed planning to pick up the goods, but I have higher requirements for the goods. At least they must be eye-catching, otherwise" " Haha, Xiao Chu, I understand what you are saying. To be honest, Lao Zhou's goods are indeed excellent, but mine are not bad either. I just say it without any proof. Let's take a look and talk about it. If we really don't like it then, we can't do the business. Renyi is here, you are saying no." After saying that, Boss Feng welcomed Chu Chen into the house. This boss Feng is not talking nonsense. The calligraphy and painting works in his shop are indeed no worse than those in Lao Zhou¡¯s shop. One corner of them is the work of teachers and students from the Beijing Academy of Fine Arts. I heard he said that these are the works of some teachers and students. For cooperation, he provides the location, and the teachers and students provide the works. After the sales, both parties share in proportion. After looking around, Chu Chen finally selected three works, a landscape, a Sanyang Kaitai and a peony painting. They were all quite good. The author of these three works is also relatively well-known. In the end, it cost him 3,200 yuan. Compared with the works, the price is quite reasonable and should be able to earn him at least double the profit. "Okay, Boss Feng's stuff is really good. We will communicate frequently in the future. If you have any good works, please let me know." After Chu Chen finished speaking with a smile, he handed him his business card. Chu Chen's smooth transaction also made Boss Feng very happy. Such customers are the favorites of businessmen. He exchanged business cards with Chu Chen and nodded in agreement: "That's for sure!" At this time, Uncle Wu's The phone call just happened to come, and Chu Chen said goodbye in a hurry. Old Zhou¡¯s family now lives in a house passed down from his ancestors. It is located near a bus station in the south of the city. Many freelancers live around it. The surroundings are a bit dirty and messy, and it has a bit of a slum feel. The reason why Lao Zhou lives here now is because his son¡¯s family was ruined. In the past, his family also had real estate in Uncle Wu¡¯s house in addition to here. It was precisely because Lao Zhou¡¯s son borrowed money to buy antiques and suffered a huge loss. In the end, Lao Zhou I can only sell the house there to pay off the debt. With this look, it¡¯s no wonder that Lao Zhou values ????money so much that the previous tragedy happened. "Dudududu" It was obviously the third day after Lao Zhou's death, but the door of Lao Zhou's house was closed tightly, so Uncle Wu went up and knocked on the door. "Who is it?!" An impatient voice came from the house. After a while, the person inside opened the door. The man who opened the door was a man in his early thirties. It was Zhou Jude, the son of Lao Zhou. Speaking of it, this name was very ironic compared with his usual behavior. Not only did he not gather virtues, but he was scattered. Virtue. When he saw Uncle Wu and Chu Chen standing at the door, a smile emerged from their impatient faces. "So it's Uncle Wu. Are you here to pay homage to my dad?" Seeing his expression, Uncle Wu was a little unhappy: "I said, Xiao Zhou, your dad went there and why didn't you call me? , If Xiaochen hadn¡¯t gone to your dad¡¯s shop today and got the news, I wouldn¡¯t have known about it!¡± Xiao Zhou led the two of them into the house and said as he walked: ¡°Uncle Wu, I can¡¯t help it, my dad. He left suddenly and left me nothing. My aunt came during her cremation and left after losing a thousand yuan. With this little money and a little money from my family, it was enough to build a cemetery. , How can you have money to pay for the funeral? " After hearing this, Chu Chen cursed in his heart, you have made your mother so angry, how can your aunt come to help you with the funeral? Just leave some money for you. Not bad. After hearing this, Uncle Wu said angrily: "Then you don't need to notify me?"The three of them walked through the yard and came to Lao Zhou's living room, which had been completely cleaned except for a simple mourning hall. Seeing this, Chu Chen couldn't help but thought to himself, he really deserves to be called a prodigal!
