Divine Lucky Star

When Wang Hao said that this thing has flaws, Principal Zheng, Master Liu, and the second uncle were all dumbfounded. Among the three, Principal Zheng was the most anxious, and asked anxiously: "Flaw! What flaw?!"

He planned to give this thing to the third elder of the Hong family, if it was a fake, it would be a lot of fun!

"Don't be in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry to leave." Wang Hao smiled, sitting on the sofa in the posture of Ge You, and said, "Bringing up this flaw, let me tell you a story first. About 90 years , a seller bought a knife from the countryside. The knife is very good, the blade is sharp and sharp, the cold light is cold, the handle is worn in several places, and it is wrapped in pulp. Unfortunately, the scabbard is gone. The knife is wrapped in cloth, so it must not be sold at a good price. What should I do? The seller is not worried. He goes home and makes a suitable scabbard out of old wood. Then paint with green paint, then buy some millet, sprinkle it on the paint finely, and then use sandpaper to beat it. It is almost done, then paint again, sprinkle millet and sandpaper again. This cycle goes on and on, and it looks almost the same. Find a few old ones The copper sheet is pasted on for decoration, and the sharkskin case is done."

After listening to the story Wang Hao told, all the people present were puzzled, while shopkeeper Tong stared at him fiercely, not knowing what was going on in his heart.

Principal Zheng likes antiques and listens to stories, he said, "And then?"

"Then the salesman put the scabbard in the kitchen, smoked it for a few days, wiped it with a towel, and inserted the knife in. The whole knife looks ancient and elegant, and it is a good knife!" Wang Hao Slowly preached to him: "Take the knife to the store, put it in an inconspicuous place, let it sit for a few days, let your mouth blow, then put it on a prominent shelf, and wait for the fool. People come and go in the store. , There is an endless stream, but there are not many people who value this knife, and the owner is not in a hurry, there will always be someone who will take a fancy to it. Finally, one day, an old man came to see this knife, and immediately asked the owner to look at it, and asked casually: Shopkeeper, is this shark skin? Where did you get it? The shopkeeper was all smiles: Oh, I don’t know what kind of skin it is. , both buyers and sellers are very satisfied and have become good friends.”

Master Liu and the second uncle looked at each other, becoming more and more confused-we are talking about pots, what is the situation when you are talking about knives?

"When I say this knife, I mean that there are many ways to make antiques old." Wang Hao continued with a smile: "Some of them are disgusting to talk about, such as bronze ware, which is to throw the finished product in the urinal to soak, and then put it in the soil Buried, the copper rust will go up; some are more cruel, such as Xueqin, who finds a live sheep, cuts a hole in the leg, puts the jade in it, and sews the wound; They are connected together, made into bottles, and put under the window sill to drench in the rain. When they are sold, you can look at the money and see how they are old, but the price of dishes and bottles is very different; there are also simple ones, calligraphy and painting. Some people find it troublesome to make it old, just spray it with clear tea, of course, this way is easier to see."

When Wang Hao said this, the other people were fine, but when Shopkeeper Tong heard it, he obviously reacted differently. He secretly gave his apprentice a wink, and the apprentice understood, and left quietly immediately!

Regarding the actions of these two people, Wang Hao didn't bother to care, and continued to preach: "After talking about this, let's talk about this purple clay pot."

"There are many ways to fake purple clay teapots, and the most used one is the boiling method, which is to put the new teapot into the tea soup and boil it, take it out after a certain period of time, dry it, and then boil it again. Repeat this several times, and the new teapot will be replaced The luster on the pot is removed, and the surface of the pot becomes gray and silent, looking like an old pot unearthed."

"It is also buried with soil. This old method is to bury the new pot directly in the ground, so that the new pot will naturally lose its luster on the surface."

"There is also shoe polish, such as rubbing the same color of shoe polish on the new pot to cover up the luster of the new pot."

"There are also teapots that are mixed with raw vegetables, mixed with strong tea juice, cooking oil, vinegar, soy sauce, sugar, etc. to make a juice, and smeared on the surface of the new pot to cover up the luster of the new pot."

When Wang Hao said that there are so many counterfeiting techniques in this purple sand pot, Principal Zheng was stunned!

"My dear, this thing can still be played like this?" Principal Zheng exclaimed: "Then this purple clay pot, could it be that it was faked like this?"

After Principal Zheng said this, all the people present were afraid to express their anger, waiting for Wang Hao to express his conclusion.

But obviously, Wang Hao's words once again surprised a few people!

"Actually speaking of this set of pots, it's really not just a simple fake." Wang Hao picked up the pot, first picked up the lid, put it on the coffee table, and then held the body of the pot, saying: "First of all, let's look at this pot. The pot, all kinds of workmanship are very, very good, it can be confused with the real one, whether it is the font on the surface or the name inside, it can be said that there is almost no flaw. And if you look at the tea dirt inside and smell the tea fragrance, it is absolutely true. Is it an old pot that has been brewing tea for many years? Hey, this is actually what I said, the result of repeated steaming in the tea. The advantage of this is that the poor pot is indeed a purple sand pot, and the tea is also good tea. The steamed one is cleaner, and it is very difficult to find. This teapot is not only like this, after the tea is boiled, it is buried in the ground for at least two years, and after the burial, it is boiled for another round. So on the whole , the counterfeiter who made this pot is indeed quite clever, at least not even Master Liu saw it."

"Didn't you hit it in the end?" Master Liu shook his head with a wry smile, and said, "Then tell me, brother, where is the flaw in this teapot?"

"Speaking of this flaw, it's actually quite simple." Wang Hao took out his mobile phone from his pocket, turned on the flashlight, and then took a photo inside the mouth of the bottle, saying, "Master Liu, look inside the mouth of the bottle, and you will naturally understand."

"Is there such a thing?" Master Liu took the mobile phone and took a photo into the spout, and was immediately stunned: "Indeed, indeed! The color inside the spout is obviously different from other places!"

"Let me see, let me see!" Principal Zheng was the most anxious, grabbed the pot and the phone, and then took a look and said: "It really is! This looks much newer than other places!"

Seeing that everyone had discovered this, Wang Hao smiled and said the answer: "Although the counterfeiting method of this pot is clever, after all, he still forgot one thing. That is, the pot was buried in the ground, and the inside and outside were filled. Soil, but the soil in the spout is not stuffed in, so the color is very different from other places. But this is actually normal, think about it, the inside is black and black, who can see this clearly?"

"Oh my god!" Principal Zheng was completely dumbfounded by Wang Hao's words: "It's fortunate that my brother is here, otherwise I would really have bought a fake product!"

"The craft of counterfeiting is superb," ​​Master Liu shook his head, sighed, and said, "I was able to miss it today, alas, it is true as my brother said, because shopkeeper Tong dropped the previous set of pots, so I subconsciously I thought this set was real, so I didn’t look that carefully.”

"Actually, it's not just that," Wang Hao said with a smile, "how else can I say that this counterfeiter is clever? Speaking of which, this set of pots isn't all fake..."

Upon hearing this, Principal Zheng was stunned again: "It's not all fake, what do you mean?"

"It's very simple." Wang Hao picked up the lid of the pot and said with a smile, "This lid is real! Simply put, this set of pots should be broken for some reason and cannot be used anymore, but the lid is intact. So the counterfeiters are very clever. Using this pot lid as a benchmark, they made all the other parts and then faked them. Think about it, this pot lid is a real Ming Dynasty object. Using this as a reference for counterfeiting is naturally It’s hard to see. So that’s what the story I told earlier was about using a real pot lid as a fake pot body, so it’s normal if you can’t see it.”

It was only at this moment that everyone suddenly realized that this counterfeiter was really thoughtful!

"Papa papa!"

After Wang Hao said these words, shopkeeper Tong, who had been listening coldly in the room, suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Sure enough, I didn't expect that I would miss it today. He is a real expert!"

"It's so-so, but it's not good," Wang Hao said with a chuckle: "If you drink too much, you will throw up, and you will climb a tree when you drive."
