    "It's okay. I bought a pretty good wolf hair. By the way, why did you buy so many calligraphy and painting works? Are these all good things?" Liu Sizhe was a little surprised when he saw Chu Chen holding so many scrolls.  Chu Chen chuckled and said, "Of course not. I asked my boss for three of them." Liu Sizhe's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked in a low voice with excitement on his face: "Brother Chen, if you don't know how to get good things, you are the one who asked for them."  Come on, show me!" "You're really smart," Chu Chen said with a smile, "It's not appropriate to see it now, let's wait until we get back." "What are you waiting for, let's go.  !" Liu Sizhe said impatiently.  Chu Chen said speechlessly: "Why are you in a hurry? Senior Brother Yi is here!" "Yes, yes, yes! I'll call him!" But before Liu Sizhe took out his phone, Chu Chen said: "No need to call, Senior Brother  He's already here." Yi Hongguo walked up to him and saw that he couldn't help but find something good. So Chu Chen smiled and asked, "Senior brother, did you find something good?"  "Hey, I picked up a coral-topped bead for nothing." Yi Hongguo smiled and took out a ruddy, round and plump bead from his pocket.  At this time, Chu Chen was holding a lot of things in his hands, so he could only get closer and take a closer look. Judging from the color of the coating and some features, it should indeed be a coral crown bead.  Men¡¯s official hats in the Qing Dynasty were divided into top hats and small hats. Top hats were commonly known as ¡°big hats¡± and were strictly hierarchical. The top beads of official hats of different grades were used.  The feather tube and feather branches are all different.  Follow the etiquette.  The first grade is ruby, the second grade is coral, the third grade is sapphire, the fourth grade is lapis lazuli, the fifth grade is crystal stone, the sixth grade is gold, the seventh grade is plain gold, and the eighth grade is gold.  The ninth grade is gold with Yang patterns.  Those without top beads have no official status.  Therefore, this coral official hat bead should be used for the hats of the second-rank officials of the current dynasty, which is very rare.  "By the way, what's this on your hand?" Yi Hongguo asked, pointing to the scroll in Chu Chen's hand.  "Good stuff." Chu Chen said with a smile: "Brother, do you have anything else to do? If nothing else, let's go back." As he said that, he slightly raised the scroll in his hand.  Yi Hongguo immediately understood what he meant, waved his hand and said, "I have nothing to do, let's go" Sitting in the car, Liu Sizhe couldn't restrain his curiosity and asked, "Brother Chen, what are you doing?"  Whose calligraphy and painting is this?" Chu Chen gave up and said, "Let's wait until we get back to talk about this. Otherwise, senior brother will not be able to drive, and our lives are still in his hands.  " Yi Hongguo laughed when he heard this: "If you don't tell me, I would be even more itchy! " The three of them laughed for a while, and Liu Sizhe asked: "Brother Chen, how did you smell that huanghuali just now?  "Why don't I smell it?" "Of course the polished huanghuali doesn't smell much," Chu Chen explained: "And it should have been smoked with sulfuric acid and then washed with lime water.  Under normal circumstances, you can't smell the wood. You should scratch the section a little before smelling it. "Oh, that's it!" Liu Sizhe said suddenly.  "Actually, in the situation just now, you can tell whether it is a real Hainan Huanghuali without smelling it." "Ah? Tell me quickly!" Liu Sizhe said eagerly.  Chu Chen smiled and said, "You should know that the unique texture produced by the knots of huanghuali trees is called the "grimace" pattern, right?" "I know this." Liu Sizhe nodded.  Chu Chen continued: "This kind of grimace pattern can also appear in the knots of other mahogany trees, such as red rosewood. However, their grimace patterns appear messy and extensive, and are far less charming and elegant than those of huanghuali."  "The method of identifying Hainan Huanghuali and Vietnamese Huanghuali is also very simple, that is, through the grimace lines. In most cases, the grimace lines of Hainan Huanghuali are solid, so they appear more charming, while Vietnamese Huanghuali  Most of the grimace lines are hollow, and the eyes are not as sharp as Hai Huang's. Think about it, isn't it? " "Well, I'm not familiar with Huanghuali!" Liu Sizhe scratched his head and said, "But that arm just now.  It is indeed hollow." Yi Hongguo, who was riding in the car, said happily: "Junior brother, when you said this, I remembered that the two kinds of huanghuali are indeed different in this respect. Thank you, junior brother.  Ah, let me learn another trick." Chu Chen waved his hands and said, "Senior brother, you are so polite, but there is one thing to note. Not every huanghuali utensil will have grimace lines. This is related to the location of the material.  ,?Generally speaking, the market price of good products with grimace lines or multiple grimace lines will be much higher than those without.  " "If you don't have grimace lines, you need to consider everything comprehensively. In terms of color, the color of huanghuali is based on yellow. However, most Vietnamese huanghuali are relatively monotonous yellow, while Hainan huanghuali will be in yellow.  The background color has some purple and brown.  In addition, there are weight, smell, feel, etc. Generally, you can easily distinguish them if you are exposed to them more.  " After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Liu Sizhe smiled and said: "Haha, thank you Brother Chen for your advice. If I encounter Huanghuali things again next time, I will count them" Ten minutes later, the three of them returned.  In the hotel, under Liu Sizhe's impatient urging, Chu Chen carefully opened the painting slowly. When the entire painting was displayed in front of everyone, both Liu Sizhe and Yi Hongguo were so shocked that they almost dropped their jaws.  After a long time, Liu Sizhe pointed at the painting and said incoherently: "Am I wrong?  Thisis this really Jing Hao's "Autumn Evening in Chushan Mountain"?  " "Is this still false?  " At this time, Yi Hongguo also came to his senses, pointed to the rows of seals and inscriptions next to him and said: "If you look at these, you should know that this cannot be fake.  " "Haha, I just think it's incredible. This is Jing Hao's "Chu Mountain Autumn Evening Picture"!  "Liu Sizhe's face was full of disbelief. "I don't think it's incredible at all. It's not surprising that my junior brother can get Wu Daozi's magical Vast Sea Map and Jing Hao's works.  "Yi Hongguo shook his head and laughed. "Ah!  "Liu Sizhe grabbed Chu Chen's shoulders and shook them violently: "How come you are so lucky? You can pick up such a shocking leak in any ghost market!  Is that stall owner blind?  " "I don't know how the stall owner would put such a thing together with a pile of garbage.  "Chu Chen smiled and took out the rhetoric he had thought up before. Chu Chen explained that when Liu Sizhe was bargaining at the ghost market just now, he felt bored, so he casually looked at the paintings on the stall next to him, but all that caught his eye was  Some low-quality prints, but by chance, he saw that the material of this scroll was different. After being curious, he opened it and took a look. This was incredible, and as a result, he bought this painting as a partner.  Liu Sizhe said in surprise: "No, is it the painting you found when I told you to choose a brush just now?  " Chu Chen chuckled and said, "That's when.  "Liu Sizhe tugged at his hair fiercely and growled: "Ah!  Why is it such a coincidence!  It must be the luck I brought to you!  No, Brother Chen, you have to give me some compensation, otherwise I will feel unbalanced!  " Although he knew this was Liu Sizhe's joke, Chu Chen still smiled and said: "How about when the public sale comes, I will pick a good piece of material for you?  " "Long live Brother Chen!  Liu Sizhe cheered when he heard this: "But this makes me a little embarrassed!"  " Chu Chen laughed and scolded: "You kid, don't get advantage and act like a good boy.  " At the same time, Yi Hongguo put on his gloves, took out a magnifying glass, and looked carefully bit by bit, not missing every inch. " About forty minutes later, Yi Hongguo put down the magnifying glass in his hand and gently  He breathed a sigh of relief and sighed: "What a good thing!  Regardless of the creative techniques of the work, inscriptions by famous artists, seals, mounting, etc., I can be sure that this is the original work of Jing Hao, the same as the one I saw in the Forbidden City on Baodao.  " "Moreover, this work has been damaged for more than a thousand years, but the damage has not affected the integrity of the work. This is very rare. A work like this can be preserved so completely.  It is rare, and it can be called a national treasure-level cultural relic!  " "However, this work has been somewhat damaged after all. The most important thing now is to reframe it and repair the damaged areas.  " Chu Chen nodded and said: "I thought so too. I will call the master soon. For such a precious thing, I can only rest assured if I ask him to take care of it.  " "Haha, I think the master will definitely be happy to do this.  "Yi Hongguo laughed. "Next, Chu Chen and Liu Sizhe took turns to come forward to appreciate it. By the time they finished watching, it was already broad daylight. Although the three of them had not slept for almost the whole night, they were all in very good spirits.  It¡¯s no wonder that when you encounter such a priceless treasure, it¡¯s normal not to feel sleepy when you¡¯re excited. ¡°Tuk-du!  Xiao Chu, have you gotten up?  " " Mr. Guan!  Why did you get up so early?  "Chu Chen opened the door and saw that it was Guan Guokang. "There was an accident!  "Guan Guokang explained: "The owner of an object to be identified this time??We have to go there early to catch the eight o'clock flight.  By the way, why did you get up so early? Could it be that you didn't sleep?  " "Haha, I slept for a while before and went to visit the ghost market early this morning.  "Chu Chen said with a smile. "So you went to visit the ghost market!  Guan Guokang sighed: "It's a pity that I am old, otherwise I would also want to go shopping."  By the way, looking at you like this, you must have found some good treasures, right?  Can you let me appreciate it too?  " "Of course that's no problem.  " Chu Chen smiled and invited Guan Guokang in. " Later, when Guan Guokang saw that Chu Chen's harvest was actually Jing Hao's "Chu Mountain Autumn Evening Picture", the same expression immediately became wonderful
