    "Okay!" As soon as Chu Chen finished speaking, there was a burst of cheers from the scene.  Just as Chu Chen began to perform the appraisal, someone in the crowd was frowning. This made people who knew him feel strange and asked: "Old man, why are you so unhappy? Aren't you happy to have Teacher Chu to help you with the appraisal?"  "The old man smiled bitterly and said: "It would be nice to have Teacher Chu for appraisal, but I didn't buy anything today. You said this was a big deal. If I had known this, I would have bought something anyway!" "What you said,  If you don¡¯t like it and insist on buying it, isn¡¯t there something wrong with your brain?¡± The old man chuckled: ¡°I don¡¯t think it¡¯s a pity that I didn¡¯t let him appraise the item after finally meeting him!¡± ¡°What¡¯s the pity?  You guys like to take advantage. I don¡¯t know what¡¯s so good about this kind of advantage. We asked Teacher Chu to help with the appraisal for the purpose of learning. It¡¯s better for you to learn more skills than anything else! Moreover, if you really want to give Chu something!  The teacher appraised it, now is the time to buy it! " "Hey! That's right" The old man clapped his hands and turned around and ran towards the antique street.  This situation made the person who just spoke dumbfounded. He was just joking, and he didn't expect that the old man would take it seriously. This made him smile bitterly, and he could only hope that the old man wouldn't buy it for a while.  It was too expensive, otherwise it would be fine if it was genuine, but if it was a fake, he would feel a little guilty.  The first thing Chu Chen looked at was Lao Liang¡¯s jade, a jade pendant. The jade pendant was not big and had obvious features. He finished reading it after a while.  "Teacher Chu, how is this thing of mine?" Lao Liang asked nervously.  Chu Chen smiled slightly and said: "This jade pendant of yours is not bad. It is a work from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. However, this jade pendant should be something from ordinary people at that time. The texture of the jade material is not very good. And the carving work is also ordinary.  , This has some impact on the value of the jade pendant, but in general, it is still valuable for collection. " After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Lao Liang said with a smile: "This jade pendant I bought is not expensive, it can be.  I'm already satisfied with a genuine piece. Teacher Chu, let me ask you again, how much is a jade pendant worth now? " "Thank you, Teacher Chu" Waiting for Lao Liang to hold the jade pendant with joy.  After leaving, someone immediately came forward with something for Chu Chen to identify.  What the next few people brought out.  Like Lao Liang's jade pendant, the features are very obvious in Chu Chen's eyes. Some of them are real and some are fake, but even if they are genuine, none of them are worth more than 10,000 yuan.  Soon, Chu Chen identified the last one, a pastel flower bowl with the word "happy" in it.  "This is a pastel flower bowl with the word "happy". We can see that there is a stamp at the bottom made in the Tongzhi Year of the Qing Dynasty. It is painted very finely, and the word "happy" on the outer wall is also painted very thin, and the flowers are also well painted. Generally speaking,  In the past, things like this were in one set: four bowls, four plates, spoons, etc. But now that this set has been spread, the other items may have been scattered, or there may be only one left"  Hear this further.  The owner of the bowl quickly asked: "Teacher Chu, is this bowl authentic?" "It is authentic." Seeing Chu Chen nodding.  The owner of the bowl was very happy, and then asked: "Is it a folk kiln or an official kiln?" "It is a utensil from a folk kiln." Chu Chen replied: "Because the official kiln does not have such a seal, but your bowl  Although it is from a private kiln, it is still good, especially the gold rim around the mouth, which has been preserved to this day without any damage, which is very rare. The on-site market value should be around 500. " Although the owner of the bowl feels a little pity,  However, after learning the value of this bowl, a smile appeared on his face, at least he didn't lose money on it.  "Thank you, Teacher Chu!" Chu Chen smiled and nodded, then looked around and found that no one had taken out anything, so he was about to leave, but just as he was about to speak, he saw a middle-aged man running away panting.  He came over, shouting as he ran.  "Teacher Chu, wait" Someone immediately said next to him: "Teacher Chu, please wait a moment. He didn't have anything for you to appraise just now, so he went to buy one temporarily. If you don't appraise it for him, I guess  He couldn't sleep at night." As soon as he finished speaking, the old man ran to everyone, gasping for air.  Seeing this, Chu Chen smiled and said: "Sir, you'd better rest for a while. I will definitely help you identify the treasures. However, I have to criticize you for your behavior like this. Let's go shopping.  I bought them after seeing them carefully. If you are in such a hurry to buy, it is easy to make mistakes. If something goes wrong, I will feel very sorry.?Go!  The old man smiled coquettishly and said, "Isn't it because it's rare to meet you? But don't worry, this thing of mine is really not expensive. Even if it's wrong, there's nothing to feel bad about."  Well, please show me how it goes!  " Chu Chen smiled and shook his head. The other party had already said that, what else could he say? Then, he took the thing in his hand and looked at it, but this look made him slightly stunned, because this thing  Not only is it an old thing, but it may also be a genuine one. The bottle is about ten centimeters high, with a wide rim, narrow neck, sloping shoulders, round bottom, and splayed feet.  The body of the bottle is inlaid with silver thread patterns, imitating the animal face patterns of Shang and Zhou bronzes, and has double animal faces in relief. The workmanship is exquisite, and the eyebrows and face of the animal head are also inlaid with silver threads.  The color is warm and beautiful in ancient Athens. The flat bottom circle has the seal script inscription "Shi Sou". Qi Baofu happened to be standing next to Chu Chen. When he saw the inscription on the copper bottle, he suddenly exclaimed: "Hey, it's still stone."  Sou's seal script money!  " Fang Jinbo quickly asked: "Brother Qi, who is this 'Shi Sou'?  " Qi Baofu explained with a smile: "Shi Sou is the most famous smelting expert and art sculpture master in the late Ming Dynasty.  He inherited the traditional copper casting technique, mastered the technique of copper inlay with silver wire, and was good at making silver-inlaid bronze wares. He made many exquisite things for the study room.  Fang Jinbo asked again: "This man is so famous, why haven't I seen his works before?"  " Qi Baofu replied: "Shi Sou has no descendants to pass on his art, so his works are precious and rare.  For example, the British Museum in England has a collection of Shi Sou's bronze Buddha and bronze incense burner. They are listed as the most important art in the East and are called "the greatest artist in ancient China."  You have to remember characters like this, otherwise it would be a pity if you miss a treasure one day.  " Fang Jinbo smiled and said: "After listening to your introduction, Brother Qi, of course I will not forget it!  But is this Shi Sou¡¯s work?  " Qi Baofu said: "It's really hard to say. Judging from the coating of this copper bottle, it should be an old thing. However, the 'Shi Sou' style copperware was also common in the Qing Dynasty. Is it really an imitation, or is it an imitation?  It depends on the results given by Teacher Chu.  " During the question and answer period between the two, Chu Chen had appraised the object. He cleared his throat and was about to speak when he saw a young man in his mid-thirties running up from the side. He held the old man's hand and gasped.  He said roughly: "Old man, you are a rabbit, you run so fast!  Let me tell you, the price you offered is definitely not good. No matter what, I can¡¯t do business at a loss!  " "Okay, okay, okay!  Just two hundred more, I'll give it to you right away!  " Originally the young man thought that this matter would be a lot of trouble, but he didn't expect that the old man agreed so readily, which made him think that the sun had risen in the west. But just when the young man was about to take the money from the old man, he saw  The people around him looked half-smiling, and he saw that his bottle was actually in the hands of a young man. This made him feel strange, and he immediately realized that there must be a problem that he had not thought of yet. "Wait!  Old people, what are you doing!  "The young man asked with a smile. "The old man really didn't know how to deal with this situation. This made him hesitate, and at the same time he kept complaining to himself, why didn't he just buy the things quickly! Now Ping Chu  Chen's expression was serious. Even if this thing was not genuine, it should still be a valuable imitation. If the other party knew the truth, would he still sell it to him? A man next to him knew that old people like to take advantage.  He said with a smile: "Old man, I have told you a long time ago, don't like to take advantage of things when buying things. No matter how much you eat meat, you have to give people some soup. Now the retribution is coming!  You, stop being secretive, Teacher Chu is still in a hurry!  " "What nonsense are you talking about!  "The old man turned around and glared at the person who spoke. The young man wanted to know what was going on, and the angrier the old man got, the more he felt there was something wrong, so he said: "Hey!  Old man, please tell me what's going on. If you don't, I'll return your money and take your things back!  " Seeing this, Chu Chen shook his head secretly. In this situation, there will definitely be disputes between the two parties, but now it is almost the time agreed with Uncle Wu and the others. He really has no time to waste here, so he said: "  Mr. Nian, I'm leaving right away. If you have no objection, I'll just say so.  " The old man had no other choice, so he smiled bitterly and said: "Teacher Chu, just say it.  " Chu Chen nodded, and then said: "This bottle has a beautiful shape, ingenious conception, originality, and natural flow, giving people a feeling of beauty and infinite reverie.  The overall style should be adoptedThe smelting method of copper makes the surface look moist and shiny.  " "In addition, from a technical point of view, it should be painted on the copper body first, and then grooved and inlaid with silver wire.  That is to say, grooves are first made on the copperware, and then silver wires are laid down to form different patterns. The silver wires are embedded in the grooves so that the embedded silver wires are flush with the surface of the copperware. The process is extremely difficult.  Coupled with the author's superb painting skills, it can be said to be a perfect combination of painting and sculpture.  " "In addition, the name of this bottle is also very unique. It should be written in seal script, and then the groove is inlaid with silver wire.  The above are all in line with the craftsmanship characteristics of Shi Sou. Therefore, I think this copper bottle should be an authentic product made by Shi Sou!  "(To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
