After hanging up the microphone, Cao Zijian glanced at the barrage

【Teacher, I also want to learn antiques】

【Me too, any tips?】

【I am interested in porcelain. What books should I read? 】

Faced with the problem of water friends, Cao Zijian said:”There is no trick in the antique business. It is all done step by step and requires accumulated knowledge over time. ”

“If you have the idea of getting something done overnight, then this industry is not suitable for you.”

“I can give you some little suggestions here”

“First of all, the first point is to choose a category that you are most interested in to study.”

“Never be exposed to rain or dew evenly”

“Because you can’t learn so much at the beginning”

“For example, if you like porcelain, which belongs to a major category, you can choose a subcategory from the major category, such as Ming porcelain, Qing porcelain, and folk porcelain.”

“After you have mastered the minor categories, you can then study Yuan porcelain, Song porcelain, etc.”

“The second point is to see more real things, old things”

“Where to watch it? That must be a museum”

“Nowadays, many museums are free and have commentators. If you don’t understand, just ask. Be polite, courteous, and humble, and others will tell you.”

“Secondly, there are the auction previews of major auction companies”

“You can go to previews by paying a deposit, and some of them don’t even require it.

“The third point is to listen more.”

“This has two main meanings. The first is to listen more to the experiences of seniors in the industry, and the second is not to believe anyone’s so-called experiences and stories.”

“Of course, listening more also has another meaning, that is: novices talk less, and the more they talk, the more timid they become, giving businesses more opportunities to deceive you.”

“The last point is to buy less”

“Note, buying less does not mean not buying. If you don’t buy, you will never know how different your level is from reality.”

“The question is, how and what to buy?”

“I suggest that collectors who are just starting to buy things should not buy more than 5 figures. Of course, it depends on everyone’s financial ability.”

“Don’t think that it’s impossible to buy something for a few thousand yuan. Many auction items are sold for a few thousand yuan, but they are indeed old things.”

“Of course, buying the real thing and buying the real thing at the right price are two different things..”

“For example, the thing you bought cost 10,000 yuan. In fact, the price of this kind of thing in the market is about 3,000 yuan.”

“Therefore, you must have an understanding of market prices”

“In short, antiques are a lifelong practice and a lifelong study.”

“In a lifetime of buying and selling and collecting, there is nothing that is not easy to discern. The key is to sum up the experience and lessons after discernment and remember them.”

“As the saying goes, one learns from one experience and one gains wisdom. Mastering and identifying the authenticity of antiques is something that can only be learned through long-term trading practice.”

“Okay, let’s continue connecting.”

【Yangchun Baixue applies to join you. 】

Seeing this ID, Cao Zijian said:”Miss, it’s you ”

“It’s my sister.” Yangchun Baixue corrected

“Sister, is there anything going on with Lian Mai today?”Cao Zijian asked

“I…I want to give something to…the boy that I like…I admire. I don’t know if it’s appropriate.”Yangchun Baixue was a little hesitant when speaking.

But Cao Zijian still understood:”Giving something to the boy you like, right?”

“Yes.”Yangchun Baixue replied in a weak voice.

Some water friends who had watched Cao Zijian’s live broadcast also recognized Yangchun Baixue and spoke one after another

【Sister, your family is so rich, why are you so shy?】

【I don’t know which boy is so lucky to receive a gift from you】

“Sister, you have to speak out your love bravely. What are you afraid of? Cao Zijian also encouraged:”Come, show me your things.””

After he finished speaking, a jade object shaped like a safety buckle appeared in the video. It was round and slightly larger than a one-yuan coin.

It was painted with gold lines. Two butterflies, with a magnolia flower in the middle.

But there is a gap at the intersection of the top and bottom of the safety button

“Is this a sa

[Go to read the novel on the site: https://readwn.com/] chet?”Cao Zijian asked

“Yes.”Yangchun Baixue said, with a twist, the upper and lower parts can be separated.

【This craftsmanship is too exquisite】

【Sure enough, the product produced by my sister must be a high-quality product.】

【Which boy is so lucky? ]

Not only Danmaku thought so, but even Cao Zijian was deeply attracted by the carving technique of this sachet.

It is completely different from the gold-inlaid jade that Cao Zijian bought at a street stall for 60 yuan each. This gold-inlaid jade sachet is the standard instrument that truly interprets the gold-inlaid jade technology.

It brings together four technologies: thin tire, carving, slotting and gold inlay, and jade mortise and tenon joint.

The production of thin-bodied jade is the most difficult technique in jade production.

As thin as cicada wings.

This is a process that cannot be processed by modern machines and can only be done by hand.

Gold inlaid with jade, the scientific name is”gold and silver inlaid with precious stones and jade”.

As the name suggests, jade is used as a carrier, and precious metal wires or pieces with good ductility are continuously hammered and embedded into the jade.

Make the two merge into one.

The craft of gold inlaid with jade began in the Han Dynasty and was once exclusive to the palace. It reached a high artistic level during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Gold inlaid with jade has its own unique process.

The first step is to carve out grooves that are consistent with the width and depth of the gold wire on the surface of the carved jade.

The second step of inlaying: fill the carved groove with gold wire, and continuously tap the gold wire to embed it tightly into the jade groove, so that it can be made without the help of adhesion. Non-shedding effect.

This is a very strict control of the striking strength.

The third step is polishing: the gold and jade on the polished surface should be integrated into one, and there should be no difference in height.

The fourth step of polishing: from coarse sand to fine sand, after dozens of degrees of polishing, gold and jade can be perfectly combined

“`This sachet is very good and is the work of a master craftsman.”Cao Zijian praised without hesitation.

“Thin as paper, transparent as gauze, white as snow, moist as grease, exquisite workmanship, butterfly loves flowers”

“It should be inspired by Wen Zhengming’s”Magnolia Scroll””

“On the jade material with a thickness of less than 1 mm, the silk is slotted and gold thread is used to outline the magnolia flower pattern.”

“It also uses water grinding technology to make the carcass thin and transparent”

“Belonging to Xikun, the jade workmanship is extremely skillful, and the water-polished jade is as thin as paper.”

“The whole device feels light and weightless, admirable, admirable, and delicious. It’s great.”

” It is the modern jade with the best carving that I have seen so far.”

At the end, Cao Zijian gave a thumbs up []

“Is it appropriate to give this as a gift?” Yangchun Baixue asked

“What a perfect fit.”Cao Zijian nodded:”Use jade to compare virtue, use gold to represent strength.”

“This sachet has the beautiful meaning of being filled with gentle virtues and steadfast love.”

“That’s good (Li Hao))”Yangchun Baixue obviously let out a sigh of relief

“Sister, I have a presumptuous question. I wonder if you can help me answer it?”Cao Zijian said

“you…You asked.”Yangchun Baixue’s tone was a little shy.

Cao Zijian was not thinking about it, so he didn’t hear it and asked

“How much did you spend on this sachet?”

“Huh?”Yangchun Baixue was stunned.

Originally, he thought Cao Zijian wanted to ask her who to give it to, but he didn’t know that this was the question

“Not convenient to answer?”Cao Zijian said

“Convenient, just answer this question after you..”

Cao Zijian didn’t hear what Yangchun Baixue said at all because it was too soft.

“Sister, what did you say next? I didn’t hear it clearly.”Cao Zijian said.

Yangchun Baixue was silent for a long time, and finally seemed to muster up the courage and said:”You…can you give me your address?”

When Cao Zijian heard this, he was stunned.

Because he did not expect.

The boy Yang Chun Baixue talked about turned out to be himself..
