    The candlestick on the note has a mouth, a straight belly, and a circled foot.  () Its abdomen is cylindrical, with an open disk-shaped upper part. The hollow part of the disk is a candle holder, which is used for placing candles. The lower part has a high round foot.  The inscription is the six-character seal script inscription "made in the Qianlong year of the Qing Dynasty".  Generally speaking, the candlesticks of official kilns are mostly made of pink and blue flowers, while the doucai varieties are rare. Moreover, the patterns on the candlesticks are even more complicated. The whole vessel is divided into eight layers of decorative patterns from top to bottom, namely honeysuckle pattern,  Lotus intertwining patterns, fretwork patterns, wishful cloud patterns, covered lotus petal patterns, etc. In addition, in addition to blue and white, the underglaze colors also include underglaze red, making the artifacts more eye-catching.  The three candlesticks in the room are all of the same style. They look very similar to the ones in the notes, but the candlesticks are usually in pairs. From this point, we can tell whether the three candlesticks are real or fake.  Even so, Chu Chen still had the idea of ????rather killing the wrong person than letting go, and looked at all three candlesticks. However, to his disappointment, the inscriptions of these three candlesticks were all "Yongzheng Year of the Qing Dynasty"  " was not what he was looking for.  Putting down the candlestick in his hand, Chu Chen looked at the other things and found that there was nothing he was satisfied with, so he walked out.  Next, Chu Chen visited a few more rooms, but also failed to find the remaining clues in the notes. He had expected this kind of thing, and he was not disappointed.  However, he couldn't find even one thing that he liked, so he could only sigh inwardly that he was out of luck.  Entering another room, in addition to the owner of the room, there was also a guest, and this person Chu Chen also knew, it was the "white-bones" Feng Zhengjian.  At this time, Feng Zhengjian was holding his right hand tightly while talking to the landlord.  I want the homeowner to lower the price of something he likes.  The landlord shook his head and said, "Boss, I'm so sorry. I've already lost eight thousand, and there's really nothing I can do about it if it's less!" Feng Zhengjian couldn't make up his mind for a moment.  But he still held on to the things tightly and refused to let go. It seemed that he cared about the things in his hands very much.  At this time, Chu Chen walked in, Feng Zhengjian's eyes lit up, and he quickly greeted him respectfully: "Teacher Chu, you are here today too!" Since he was impressed by Chu Chen last time, and Chu Chen later appeared on TV  A very eye-catching performance on the forum, and the praise of the two guests who participated in the treasure appraisal program on the forum, whether it was an accidental encounter with Chu Chen in the market.  When we met on the Internet, Feng Zhengjian always called Chu Chen his teacher.  Chu Chen also mentioned it several times, asking him not to be so polite, but he still did so, so Chu Chen just let him go.  When the homeowner heard Feng Zhengjian address Chu Chen, he was a little surprised at first. After a while, he remembered who Chu Chen was.  This made his eyes look a little flustered, and he secretly said "bad luck"!  Feng Zhengjian didn't notice this. After exchanging a few words with Chu Chen, he let go of his right hand.  Smiling, he asked, "Teacher Chu, could you please help me take a look at this coin?" Chu Chen didn't expect that Feng Zhengjian, who had been in the antiques business for several years, would be there.  In a hurry, he would actually commit such a taboo.  But there is no way, the two of them can be considered friends after all.  Since the other party begged him, he couldn't refuse.  Chu Chen took the coin into his hand, and when he took a look, he realized that the coin was actually Huitong Bao.  Huitong Tongbao is a small coin. According to the person who discovered it, this copper coin was first minted in the first year of Huitong (Yel¨¹ Deguang) of Liao Dynasty, that is, 938 AD.  The era name Huitong was used until 947 AD, when Yelu Deguang changed the name to Datong.  But the strange thing is that there is no record of Huitong coins in "History of Liao" and other ancient books as well as previous money genealogy.  No one had discovered it before. It was not until the late 1980s that a Huitong Tongbao was discovered. The actual historical facts about the "Huitong Tongbao" also come from this discovery.  To be honest, Chu Chen is still somewhat doubtful about the existence of Huitong Tongbao. Of course, this is based on the fact that he has not seen the real thing.  But no matter what, since the Huitongbao was unearthed, he has only heard about that one orphan coin. In addition, he just noticed the nervous look on the homeowner's face. It is not clear whether this copper coin is real or fake.  It's not hard to guess.  ¡°But antique identification cannot always be based on guesswork. Next, Chu Chen took out a magnifying glass and looked at the coins carefully.  It can be said that this coin can indeed be fake. In addition to the style of Liao coins and the same texture as the real thing, the green rust all over the body seems to prove its noble status.  But it can¡¯t be true, and Chu Chen, who is careful, still discovered its flaws.  Chu Chen put away the magnifying glass in his hand and looked at the two people in the room. One had a face full of expectation, and the other had a calm expression, but there was a trace of panic in his eyes. In the end, he sighed secretly and returned the coin.  To Feng Zhengjian, he said vaguely: "This thing seemsA little bit more!  "The reason why he didn't say it clearly was because he considered the taboos in the industry, and he also realized that the homeowner probably didn't mean to deceive people. He might have been blinded and suffered a big loss, so he sold it at a loss.  . Otherwise, with Feng Zhengjian¡¯s performance, why would the landlord say such a low price of 8,000 yuan? In fact, after listening to the landlord¡¯s quotation, it would not be difficult for Feng Zhengjian to find something fishy in it, but he is obviously greedy.  , so that he was obsessed with money. Now, Feng Zhengjian obviously did not understand what Chu Chen meant. After nodding and thanking him, he sent Chu Chen out, and then went back to discuss business with the landlord.  His business was not disrupted, and he secretly thanked Chu Chen for being at least considerate of the antique dealer's difficulties. Chu Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly as he walked out, lamenting that Feng Zhengjian was obsessed with money, but he also felt sorry for him just now.  The items were sent out without even looking at them. He shook his head and walked into a nearby room. Here, he finally opened the first ticket of the day and bought a small jade pendant.  It was worth nearly 20,000 yuan, but he bought it for 1,800 yuan. He picked up a small leak and felt happy. When he walked out of the door with the jade pendant, Chu Chen met the man who had just finished the business.  Feng Zhengjian walked out of the door with a hint of joy in his face, "Teacher Chu, thank you very much just now.  "Feng Zhengjian quickly expressed his gratitude respectfully. "Chu Chen felt a little dumbfounded when he heard this. Feng Zhengjian's mind was flexible enough, so how could he become confused when he encountered the possibility of picking up a big leak? Chu Chen sighed.  , replied: "Boss Feng, don't you understand what I just said?  " Feng Zhengjian was stunned when he heard this, and said in astonishment: "Teacher Chu, what do you mean by this?  Could it be" "Let's talk over there!  "It must be inconvenient to talk while standing at someone else's door. After speaking, Chu Chen took Feng Zhengjian to the aisle next to him. At this time, Feng Zhengjian also realized that he must have misunderstood Chu Chen's meaning. The reason is simple. Since Chu Chen  Chen helped him appraise it, so how could he not say whether it was good or bad? Besides, if it was genuine, why would Chu Chen say it was expensive? This was obviously a fake. In addition, he also thought about the house.  The owner obviously knew what Huitong Tongbao was, so why did he sell it to him at such a low price? This was obviously because the other party probably had his eye on it and wanted to sell it at a loss as soon as possible.  Feng Zhengjian looked very embarrassed, but he looked at the copper coin in his hand, but he couldn't see where it was fake, so he asked: "Teacher Chu, I am also a money addict, but I really can't see how this thing is fake."  If there is anything wrong with Mei Hui Tong Bao, please give me some advice!  " Chu Chen waved his hand: "Boss Feng, you're welcome. Before I explain what's wrong with this copper coin, let me get something first" After saying that, he walked to a room he had seen before.  , also bought a copper coin. Chu Chen handed the copper coin he just bought to Feng Zhengjian and said, "Boss Feng, compare this Chongxi Tongbao with your Huitong Tongbao and see if there is any difference.  There is no difference.  " Chongxi Tongbao is a kind of small coin minted by Yelv Zongzhen, Emperor Xingzong of the Liao Dynasty, during the Chongxi period. Although it is rare now, it is not very popular in the market because of its rough writing. Feng Zhengjian took it  The coin seemed a little strange at first, but after he observed it carefully, he discovered the mystery and said in surprise: "What's going on? My coin is the same as the 'Tongbao' on Tongbao twice, and it is actually the same as Chongxi Tongbao."  The word 'Tongbao' will be exactly the same?  " Chu Chen nodded: "Actually, it's not just the word 'Tongbao' that is the same. If you observe it with a magnifying glass, you will find that the word 'Hui' in Tongbao is actually the word 'Chong' changed from the word 'Chong'.  The word "Tong" is also modified from "Xi". Because it is modified, if you look carefully, you can also see that the size of the word "Tong" is different from the other three characters.  " After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Feng Zhengjian quickly took out a magnifying glass and took a closer look. He also found traces of alteration, which made him smile bitterly and said: "The craftsmanship of this forger is too superb, and the alteration is too great.  It's clever, almost seamless, but there's still no way I can escape Teacher Chu's dazzling eyes!  " "I'm not a sharp-eyed person.  " Chu Chen waved his hand, and then said: "The forger is indeed very skilled. If I hadn't been studying Liao money during this period, I wouldn't have been able to see this at all.  ¡± Even so,??, in fact, Chu Chen was not studying Liao money recently as he said. The reason why he remembered it so clearly was because of his photographic memory. The reason why he explained it this way was because he didn't want to  One's abilities are exposed in front of others.  (To be continued)
