Just now, Liu Qinshu heard that the piece of ink in front of her was probably the famous Li Mo. She was stunned. When Mr. Liu said this, she came back to her senses and asked impatiently: "Dad, this piece of ink is probably the famous Li Mo." Is Gu Mo really Li Mo?" Mr. Liu waved his hand and said, "Don't interrupt, let Azhe speak first!" Liu Sizhe said, "They are very similar, and not only are they similar, I think from the characteristics, they are the same. The real Li Mo is exactly the same. But apart from the fact that Li Mo is too precious and I dare not confirm it, I also have some doubts. Since this ink is Li Mo, why does it still look so new after so many years? " Liu The old man nodded with satisfaction: "You know the importance, and you can confirm or deny the authenticity of this thing without even one bite." Liu Sizhe said with a smile: "After all, there is only one piece of Li Mo in the world now, and I don't dare to decide casually. It's easy to say whether it's genuine or not. If it's a fake, I'll be laughed at. ""Achen, what do you think?" Mr. Liu turned to look at Chu Chen. "Master, you also know that I don't have deep research on ancient ink, and there are too few clues left on this piece of ancient ink. If the gold pattern or the inscription on the ancient ink can be left, it will be easy to identify its authenticity. More. So my current conclusion is basically the same as Azhe's." Chu Chen replied. "Yes! You are right!" Mr. Liu said: "But it is impossible to show all the clues in antique appraisal, otherwise there will not be so many people paying attention to this industry. With the current clues, I can already confirm the things It¡¯s true, but you don¡¯t know why when I tell you the result. So before I do that, I¡¯ll ask you a question.¡± ¡°Have you ever thought about it before?¡± How can we accurately identify it? " Chu Chen said: "We have thought of two methods before, one is to directly grind the ink, but this method is too wasteful, so everyone did not agree with the other. , I took an appropriate amount of ancient ink powder and used an instrument to identify it, but it also caused some damage to the ancient ink. "Hearing this, Mr. Liu asked: "No more?" Chu Chen and Liu Sizhe looked at each other. Then they all shook their heads. "You guys! You just can't turn around!" Mr. Liu said with a smile: "Let me ask you another question. If it were in ancient times. Apart from grinding ink, is there any other way to prove the authenticity of Li Mo? Before thinking, You'd better think carefully about the characteristics of Li Mo that A Zhe just mentioned. ""What method?" The two began to think hard. After a while, Chu Chen remembered the characteristics of Li Mo that Liu Sizhe just mentioned. Suddenly, a look of realization appeared on his face, and he understood what Mr. Liu meant. "Have you remembered? Tell me, what is the simplest and easiest way to identify whether it is Li Mo?" Mr. Liu asked with a smile. "Put it in the water and see if it melts or not." After saying that, Chu Chen couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile. Everyone was just a fan of the authorities, otherwise they would have been able to confirm the authenticity of the ancient ink. "Hey! Such a simple method. Why didn't I think of it?" Liu Sizhe slapped his thigh fiercely, with an annoyed look on his face. Mr. Liu laughed and said: "The ancients had no good way to identify Li Mo. They were reluctant to use it, so they could only use water immersion to identify the authenticity of things. This identification happened to be painted with red paint, and it could not be moved at all. It will be soaked in water, of course it will melt away and become blurry in a short time!¡± After hearing Mr. Liu¡¯s explanation. The two of them looked stunned. At this time, Liu Qinshu asked: "The red paint will melt away. But the gold paint will not melt away, right?" Mr. Liu explained: "It is true that the gold paint will not melt away, but since Li Mo is so precious and reluctant to use it, usually It should be normal to play with it, right? If things go on like this, how likely is it that the gold painting above will be preserved to this day, a thousand years later?" Everyone nodded in agreement, let alone a thousand years, if you play with it regularly, after five hundred years? Years ago, the gilding on it was badly preserved. "Actually, there is another thing derived from this." Mr. Liu said again: "You must all know that after things have been played with for a long time, a layer of patina will form on the surface, and the patina has a very good protective effect on cultural relics. , plus every owner cherishes this piece of ancient ink very much. It makes sense why it looks so new and well preserved." "Bah, bang, bang!" As soon as Mr. Liu finished speaking, Chu Chen said. He couldn't help but take the lead in giving warm applause. At this time, he was also sighing in his heart. Although he could 100% identify the age and value of things with his supernatural power, it could be said that he was more powerful than Mr. Liu. But in other respects,?I can¡¯t help but sigh, ginger is still spicy. He had already noticed the vague markings on the ancient ink, but he didn't think much about it at all. How could he use this to deduce clues to identify the ancient ink? In addition, starting from the wear and tear of the gold ink, inferring that the original owner has been playing with it, and the coating of pulp to preserve the ancient ink as intact as new, how could Chu Chen not admire such experience and vision? Since having the power, Chu Chen has always been modest and cautious, but he is still young after all, and his heart is somewhat wandering. If this continues, sooner or later he will become proud and complacent. Although, with the help of his superpower, he will be invincible, he can't just tell the result of the superpower without giving the reason, right? Mr. Liu's lesson today made Chu Chen wake up again. Although he was powerful, all of his abilities were brought to him by his powers. If the powers suddenly disappeared like they appeared, then he would Can we still realize our personal value as we do now? "There are still many things to learn!" Thinking of this, Chu Chen sighed secretly. At this time, Liu Qinshu couldn't bear it anymore and asked: "Dad, you mean that this piece of ancient ink is undoubtedly authentic?" Mr. Liu replied: "Although I think this piece of ancient ink is famous. Li Mo, this is my family¡¯s opinion after all. It¡¯s better not to say the word ¡®no doubt¡¯.¡± Although Mr. Liu¡¯s words leave a certain amount of room, everyone understands based on his vision and experience. This piece of Li Mo is indeed a genuine piece. This made both the aunt and nephew extremely excited, and Chu Chen, who had known the result for a long time, was also extremely happy. Seeing this situation, Mr. Liu smiled and said: "Don't be too happy too soon. Although I think the things are genuine, as I just said, this is just my family's opinion. It is best to leave such precious things Let other experts appraise it again." Liu Sizhe shook his head after hearing this: "Grandpa, there shouldn't be many experts in the capital who have seen genuine Li Mo, right? The introduction to Li Mo is just for comparison. Instead of doing this, I think it would be more practical to put the ancient ink in the water." Chu Chen also smiled and said, "Master, I also think A Zhe is right, just put it in the water. Just soak it in water and it can save some time. " Mr. Liu disagreed: "Achen, there are hidden dangers in doing this. Based on the performance of this piece of ancient ink, it should be done with less words. It has been made for hundreds of years. If it wasn¡¯t Li Mo and it melted in the water, wouldn¡¯t it be a pity?¡± Upon hearing this, Liu Sizhe felt that it made sense and said, ¡°Brother Chen, I think what grandpa said? Yes, it¡¯s better to let other experts take a look at this piece of ancient ink. Although it¡¯s a little more troublesome, it¡¯s also much safer. And I believe it won¡¯t be possible to say it¡¯s true by then and it¡¯s false!¡± Chu Chen said: ¡°Then! Well, when our Beijing Antiques Association gathers next month, I will ask everyone to help identify this ingot. " "That's not necessary. I still have an invitation to the exchange meeting. I am too old to go. Well, Achen, please go for me." Having said this, Mr. Liu said to Liu Qinshu, "Xiaoshu, go and get the invitation, and by the way, bring over the gift that Lao Guan brought to Achen." "Mr. Guan gave me a gift, what's going on?" Chu Chen felt a little strange when he heard this. Mr. Liu explained: "It's not because of that Du Yuncheng. He felt very sorry for you. You were not at home some time ago, so he brought a pair of hat tubes over and said he wanted to apologize to you." Chu Chen heard that this was what happened. , and said: "Mr. Guan is too polite. Besides, this matter is not his responsibility. There is no need for him to be like this. I will return the things to him in a few days." Mr. Liu laughed and said: "It's really good that you think so, but Lao Guan can't hold things in his heart, and he has a stubborn temper. If you don't accept it, he will definitely not let it go, and the things are too expensive, so just accept them ¡¡± Having said this, Liu Qinshu came over with something, and the pair of hat tubes that Mr. Liu was talking about turned out to be a pair of light crimson hat tubes with four sides. Hat tubes appeared around the Jiaqing and Daoguang periods of the Qing Dynasty. They were used to hold official hats for officials. There are many types of hat tubes, with exquisite pictures and rich colors. They are round, square, and hexagonal in shape. The common decorations are figures, landscapes, and animals. , fruits, flowers, birds, fish and insects, etc. The specific characteristics of the hat tube are that the Tongzhi ware has a rich and bright picture, with flowers, deformed lotus petals and other patterns on the rim and bottom; the Guangxu ware has thinner decorations and less powder; the Republic of China ware is delicate and elegant. The pair of hat tubes in front of you are composed of the four major subjects of Chinese painting: landscapes, figures, flowers and birds, and cordyceps. The brushwork is sophisticated and the colors are elegant. On one side is the inscription "Pin Qing". Pinqing refers to Jin Pinqing, whose name is Gao, whose courtesy name is Pinqing, and whose nickname is Hanfengshanren and Yishan Woodcutter. His landscapes, flowers and birds are all good, his landscapes are imitated by Shen Zhou of the Wu School, and he belongs to the Nanzong Landscape 1st Road. His flowers and birds are imitated by Jiang Tingxi and Hua Qiuyue, and his calligraphy is imitated by Dong Qichang. Tong Chengmen and Wang Shaowei were the leaders of the literati school of light crimson colored porcelain. He once worked in the Imperial Kiln Factory of the Qing Dynasty, and together with Wang Shaowei, he was known as the "Two Pens of the Imperial Kiln Factory". Together with Cheng Men and Wang Shaowei, they are known as the "Three Masters of Light Crimson Porcelain Painting". (To be continued)
