I Can Extract Abilities From Antiques

6. Xia Yurou's Terrifying Touch

"Since that's the case, Muzhi, do your best, and I'll go back to the unit first."

After Chen Baoguo finished speaking, the two sisters and brothers Chao Xia Yurou and Xia Heze nodded, then turned and left.

He knew too much about Hu Muzhi's ability.

It was not because of lack of ability that he did not become a regular at the museum, but because Zhang Shunshan put him in small shoes.

Seeing that Chen Baoguo left the shop without looking back, Xia Yurou said puzzled: "Your master doesn't seem to worry that my assessment will stum you."

"The old man may think I can do this job." Hu Muzhi smiled lightly.

"I hope you don't disappoint him." Xia Yurou nodded and motioned Hu Muzhi to sit down.

After watching Hu Muzhi sit down, Xia Yurou said to Xia Heze, "Brother, bring that tone over here."

"Sister, isn't this a bit too embarrassing?" Xia Heze said with a wry smile.

In his opinion, that Jade Pig Dragon can even be stumped by the deputy director of the museum, not to mention Hu Muzhi, who is not much different in age than himself.

However, it was Xia Yurou who answered Xia Heze with a sharp look.

Xia Heze shrank his neck, went under the counter, took out the Jade Pig Dragon that had just been thrown into the trash can, and placed it in front of Hu Muzhi.

At a glance, Hu Muzhi recognized the origin of this jade.

Jade Pig Dragon.

Also known as Jade Beast Jue, jade wares found in Hongshan and other places.

Looking at its surface, there is also a layer of red color.

It's just that this color is different from the chemical reaction produced by the long-term contact with the soil in the tomb, which is a bit unnatural.

"What do you think of this jade?" Xia Yurou asked.

"It's pretty good." Hu Muzhi said.

Hearing Hu Muzhi's answer, Xia Yurou's heart moved, but she asked calmly, "Do you think this is a fake?"

"Although the surface of this Jade Pig Dragon has a bright color, which echoes the characteristics of Gao Guyu, the color of this Jade Pig Dragon is too new, and there are still carving marks on closer inspection. It is a typical piece of dog jade." Hu Muzhi said slowly. .

Dog jade, one of the methods of jade forgery.

The dog is killed, and the jade is placed in its belly before the dog's blood has congealed, sewed and buried in the ground, and taken out after a few years.

This kind of old-fashioned method is very common in the 21st century, so Hu Muzhi saw the problem at a glance.

"Amazing!" Xia Heze gave Hu Muzhi a thumbs up: "When I bought this Jade Pig Dragon for 500 yuan, I thought I had missed it, but who knows when I took it back and showed it to my sister, only to find out that it was Eye-catching."

"You're too embarrassed to say it." Xia Yurou glared at Xia Heze.

Xia Heze pouted, but stopped talking.

"Good eyesight." Xia Yurou said, "Then you should stay and be responsible for identifying the items brought by the guests."

"The trial period is seven days. If there is no error in any of the antiques identified within the seven days, you are considered to be the official appraiser of Guxuan Pavilion."

Hu Muzhi understood that the seven-day trial period was Xia Yurou's true assessment of herself.

In fact, Hu Muzhi didn't care about the seven-day trial period, because he came to work here mainly to understand the current market of antiques.

Perhaps, before this probationary period has expired, he has already voluntarily resigned.

"Of course, the salary will be paid during the probationary period, and the lunch will be taken care of..." Xia Yurou explained the treatment here to Hu Muzhi in detail.

Hu Muzhi nodded, indicating that he understood.

Just when Xia Yurou was about to return to the back room office, Xia Heze suddenly said, "This painting?"

It turned out that when Xia Yurou was talking to Hu Muzhi about the treatment here, the bored Xia Heze opened the rectangular box that Hu Muzhi put on the coffee table and saw a painting inside.

"I bought it on the way here just now." Hu Muzhi explained.

"Ancient painting?" Xia Heze asked curiously.

"It's just a modern product under the woodblock watermark." Hu Muzhi shook his head and said, "It looked pretty good, so I bought it."

Hearing that it was not an ancient painting, Xia Heze no longer had any scruples, and untied the red rope that bound the painting, and spread the painting completely.

Looking at this picture of Tong Yin playing with cranes imitating Shen Zhou, Xia Heze said with emotion: "If I didn't know in advance that it was an imitation, I would have thought it was the real thing."

"Remember a sentence, a paper has a thousand year's life, and a Juan's life is eight hundred. This is very helpful for identifying ancient paintings." Hu Muzhi said.

"Yeah." Xia Heze nodded heavily, indicating that he understood, and then rolled up the painting again and prepared to put it in the rectangular box.

Perhaps due to the nature of the profession, looking at Xia Heze's thick hands and feet, Xia Yurou couldn't stand it any longer and reprimanded: "For calligraphy and painting works, especially scrolls, you must roll them lightly, even if this is a A fake."

Saying that, Xia Yurou took the initiative to take the scroll in Xia Heze's hand, preparing to put it away gently.

Just as soon as the painting started, Xia Yurou's movements stopped.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Xia Heze asked in confusion.

"Why do I feel that the thickness of this drawing paper seems to be slightly thicker than other paintings and calligraphy?" Xia Yurou said softly.

When Hu Muzhi heard this, he couldn't help but be amazed.

This Xia Yurou's hand is really amazing.

As soon as I got started, I realized that the painting was not right.
