    After the mixture is prepared, you only need to use garlic cloves to apply it. After applying it, tie it with a rope and fix it. It will be very strong in two or three days!  However, the disadvantages of porcelain glued together in this way are also very obvious, that is, it cannot be wetted with water. It is precisely because of this that Chu Chen does not plan to use it.  Chu Chen said with a smile: "Uncle Wu, we have to go to Mr. Du's house later. It's too late to do this. Besides, I originally planned to ask Mr. Du to help repair this porcelain, but we still arrived.  Let¡¯s talk about it then!¡± Uncle Wu nodded and said quickly: ¡°Okay! Let¡¯s go now! I want to see the beauty of Chenghua blue and white porcelain as soon as possible!¡± Next, Chu Chen put all the ancient books in the safe.  , picked up the porcelain pieces that Uncle Wu helped wrap, and the porcelain cup they got a few days ago, and then the two of them went downstairs together, bought some fruits and other gifts, and then set off to Du Hou's house in a rental car.  Because the security personnel of the kiln factory have not yet arrived, Hu Yong has been helping at the kiln factory for the past two days, so he did not follow.   Twenty minutes later, the two of them took a taxi and arrived in front of the villa where Du Hou lived. As soon as they got out of the car, Du Hou, who was standing at the door, came up to him with a smile on his face. After a while of greetings, Du Hou  Hou welcomed them into the house.  Du Hou has three children in total. The eldest son lives in Shanghai, the second daughter is married out of town, and the younger son has immigrated. Therefore, there are only Du Hou, his wife and a nanny living in such a large villa, which feels a bit  Deserted.  In Du Hou's words, when Chu Chen and the others came, his room became much more popular.  Originally, Du Hou's eldest son wanted him to live in Shanghai, but Du Hou was already accustomed to life in the Porcelain City, and he already loved porcelain. No matter how good the Shanghai market was, it was not as attractive as the atmosphere of the porcelain culture of the Millennium Porcelain City.  he.  Du Hou asked the two of them to sit down. When he saw the gifts Chu Chen put on the table, he shook his head and said, "I told you before. Don't buy gifts. I will be very happy when you come!"  "It's our first visit, this is what we should do!" Chu Chen changed the topic with a smile: "I don't want to bother you with something, I want to bring you some gifts to make you feel soft!" Hearing this, the two elders haha.  With a smile, after the nanny poured tea for the three of them, Du Hou made a gesture of invitation and said with a smile: "Okay. Then I will be gentle for once. I wonder what kind of help you are going to ask me to do, Xiao Chu?" Chu Chenwen  Yanjiu smiled and took out the porcelain pieces, then put them on the table and spread them out.  When Du Hou saw the porcelain pieces on the table, he knew what kind of help Chu Chen asked him to do.  Knowing that what Chu Chen took out shouldn't be too bad, he immediately took out a magnifying glass and looked at it. As a result, his expression was the same as Uncle Wu's before.  The more he looked, the more surprised he became, and finally a look of pity appeared on his face.  "Xiao Chu, the fracture of this porcelain piece is so new, you didn't accidentally break it, right?" "No way! I bought these porcelain pieces at the morning market." Chu  Chen waved his hand and said: "If I was the one who fell, then my master and Uncle Wu would have to beat the shit out of me." "I said Xiao Chu, you shouldn't be so reckless!" Du Hou laughed and said:  "Let's do this. Let's put it together with garlic juice first. The rough shape will be determined. Let's talk about other things." Du Hou did this to avoid future disputes. If it is really a complete product, that would be the best.  , if any tiles are missing, mark them and write them down in the contract, so that they won¡¯t be unclear about it later.  Chu Chen had no opinion on this.  He nodded directly and said: "Okay!" Then, everyone moved to Du Hou's study. After asking the nanny for relevant things, Chu Chen began to prepare the concoction. Apart from being a little troublesome, it was not difficult to prepare.  , Chu Chen¡¯s hands and feet are quick.  It was prepared successfully in a short time.  Everything was ready, and under Chu Chen's operation, everyone began to carefully stick the porcelain pieces together according to the shape of the palace bowl.  The adhesion process went smoothly.  When it was time to eat at noon, a total of twenty-one porcelain pieces were glued up one by one. As the last piece of porcelain was returned to its place, a glaze surface was as translucent as grease and as moist as jade, the green material was soft and elegant, and the painting was exquisite.  A very exquisite Chenghua blue and white palace bowl with entwined Ganoderma lucidum and treasure pattern is displayed in front of everyone.  The three of them admired it with fascinated expressions for a long time. It was not until they heard Mrs. Du saying that they were ready to start dinner that they all came back to their senses.  Du Hou solemnly said: "Xiao Chu, I will do my best to help you repair this palace bowl." "Thank you! Thank you!" Chu Chen quickly thanked him: "How much will it cost, please tell me how much it will cost."  Just say it!" "It's free!" Du Hou waved his hand and joked: "It is already a great honor to be able to restore such a treasure. Besides, it can also relieve my loneliness. I didn't give you any money.  okay!  This matter has been settled. If you want to raise money, be careful that I get in trouble with you!  " Seeing Du Hou's statement, Chu Chen could only agree with some embarrassment. Then Du Hou wrote a receipt to Chu Chen, indicating that it would be picked up in three months. Over there, Mrs. Du said again  It was time to eat, so everyone reluctantly walked out of the study room. The lunch was very sumptuous, and the atmosphere was very cheerful. After the meal, the three of them had a good time.  After a while, Du Hou invited the two of them into his heavily guarded treasure room. As soon as they entered the room, Chu Chen and Uncle Wu seemed to have entered a sea of ??antiques and treasures. The diverse and dazzling collections overwhelmed them.  After a while, Chu Chen came back to his senses and exclaimed: "Mr. Du, I didn't expect you to be a big collector. Your collection is more than enough to open a private museum!  " Du Hou waved his hands repeatedly and said: "No!  no!  I can't be called a big collector. Although I have many collections, only porcelain is the only one I'm sure about. I'm only half-assed about the rest. I'm really not sure whether it's true or false.  " Chu Chen asked a little strangely when he heard this: "You must have a lot of friends in the antique industry. Since you can't tell the truth from the false, why don't you let your friends identify it?  " Du Hou chuckled and said: "I like to have fun alone. Besides, I am an old man. I often take some good things to others for help. If someone with ulterior motives finds out, it is not safe, isn't it?  And I'm also quite afraid of trouble, so I don't want to be famous.  " After listening to Du Hou's explanation, both Chu Chen and Uncle Wu agreed. People are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being strong. Once a person becomes famous, there will be more troubles, and Du Hou and his wife are already in their seventies or eighties.  She is dead, and there is only one nanny at home. It would be really dangerous if someone really cares about her. ¡°Okay, let¡¯s get down to business.  " Du Hou said with a smile: "Xiao Chu, let me tell you frankly, I am very interested in your justice cup and the pair of Sanskrit cups. If you agree to exchange, you can buy them in my collection later.  If it's porcelain, it's fine if it's a little higher. If it's something else, how do you want to change it? We can discuss it and I guarantee you'll be satisfied.  " Chu Chen also said happily after hearing this: "Okay, but Mr. Du, we have agreed in advance that the Justice Cup can only be exchanged for the old man's. In addition, I want to keep the civil justice cup for myself.  " "Okay, then you can see for yourselves. If you like anything, just tell me!  ¡­¡± Next, Chu Chen and Uncle Wu each found the objects they were interested in and started admiring them. To say that Du Hou¡¯s collection is indeed large, regardless of whether it is good or bad, the collection totals nearly a thousand pieces. Of course,  , it is impossible that all of the nearly a thousand items in the collection are good things. Most of them are ordinary goods, but there are actually quite a few good things. Chu Chen took a rough look and estimated that there were nearly a hundred fine items among them, just like the one in front of him.  The painted enamel snuff bottle on porcelain is quite good. This snuff bottle has broad shoulders, a barrel belly, a dignified shape, and a simple and elegant shape. The body of the snuff bottle is painted with a goldfish. The goldfish pattern is elegant and lively, as if it is about to leap out, implying the lines of gold and jade.  The outline is detailed, numerous but not complicated, with light blue enamel, elegant colors, and soft gradients. Although this snuff bottle is already a work of the late Qing Dynasty, the enamel color no longer has the charm of the Qing Dynasty tricolor, but its workmanship and  From a painting point of view, it can be regarded as a rare masterpiece. Although its value cannot be compared with a blue and white Sanskrit cup, Chu Chen still wrote it down as a candidate. Next, Chu Chen looked at a few more artifacts. They were good things.  Yes, but it's not what he likes, and as Du Hou said, he can't be sure of the authenticity of artifacts other than porcelain. Chu Chen really came across a piece of high-imitation ancient jade.  The texture of the jade seems to be okay. It is Qinghai jade pretending to be Hetian jade. Generally speaking, Qinghai jade is translucent and has better transparency than Hetian jade. Its texture is slightly thicker than Hetian jade, and its specific gravity is slightly lower than Hetian jade.  It is not as delicate as Hetian jade, and lacks the dignified feeling of mutton-fat jade. It is often seen that there are transparent water lines. But these characteristics can only be seen by those who have knowledge in this area. It is really not easy for ordinary consumers to identify.  It can be concluded that, especially the fine Qinghai jade, it is even more difficult to judge. The ancient jade in Chu Chen's hand is a piece of Qinghai jade that is of high quality and is faked as Hetian jade. If it were not made above.  Chu Chen almost didn¡¯t notice the black spots at first glance. Some ancient jade are affected by minerals in the ground, causing black spots.The method of cheating is to boil the "jade" in boiling water until it is thoroughly boiled, then wrap the stone with soaked tattered cotton and set it on fire to grill. After the cotton is burned to ashes, apply wax on the stone.  Turn it over and apply it evenly to get the desired effect.  "Fake jade with "black spots" like this is very deceptive. In addition, the quality of the jade is not bad. For someone like Du Hou who is not proficient in jade, it is not surprising that he was blinded.
