Chapter 2 A small test
"Senior, where is that porcelain? I'll take it."
Lin Yue couldn't bear to see an elderly man walking around randomly.
"You really think I'm old. Now that I often fight with your master, I will definitely beat him if I fight again. Do you believe it?"
The old man looked at Lin Yue with his beard and glared at him.
Lin Yue dared not say "not believe it", and hurriedly said: "Believe, believe, senior, your style is still as good as that of the past!"
“It’s almost the same.”
The old man pulled his arm out of Lin Yue's hand, walked to the back of the antique counter, and took a pastel porcelain bottle from the shelf.
"This is uploaded by my ancestors. You can appraise it? Give me the carving knife and I will deal with it for you now."
After the old man took the carving knife from Lin Yue, he smiled and said to Lin Yue: "How about a competition?"
"How to compare?"
Lin Yue was stunned and asked in confusion. He couldn't even imagine competing with the older generation. Since the senior was interested, he was disrespectful.
"I'll deal with this carving knife. You can identify this porcelain bottle to see who has used it for a short time and how?"
The old man looked at Lin Yue with a smile.
"This... I've taken advantage of it too much."
Lin Yue said in a dilemma. Although he didn't know how to repair the iron tool, he vaguely knew that the repair process was an extremely complicated process. The time it took to identify porcelain was relatively short, ranging from one or two minutes to ten or twenty minutes, but it would definitely be shorter than the time it took to repair the iron tool.
Seeing the old man's face sinking, Lin Yue hurriedly explained: "The younger generation has absolutely no intention of looking down on the seniors. It's just that in the younger generation's impression, repairing iron tools is a very complicated project, which takes a long time, and the identification takes a very short time, so..."
Needless to say, the old man will naturally understand.
The old man nodded with satisfaction and said, "You don't have to worry about this, I just ask if you dare to answer."
"catch!"
Lin Yue was also aroused by the old man's pleasure.
"Okay! Happy!"
The old man laughed and then prepared what he needed.
After seven or eight minutes, the old man was ready.
Looking at a pot of red potion and other things, Lin Yue didn't know what the old man was going to do, nor did he know what the purpose of these things was. He knew nothing about repairing copper and iron tools.
"Okay, it's time to start."
Lin Yue automatically turned his head over. He should stop reading other people's secrets, so that he could save others from suspicion.
Seeing Lin Yue’s movements, the old man smiled slightly, then picked up the carving knife that Lin Yue gave him in his hand and said, “Start in three seconds.”
"OK."
“3…2…1, start!”
Lin Yue was not polite after hearing this. Since the old man was so confident, he must have full confidence in this competition, and he must do his best.
As soon as the old man finished speaking, Lin Yue immediately grabbed the bottleneck of the pastel porcelain bottle, turned over the porcelain bottle, and looked at the bottom of the bottle.
"Made in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty" is a blue and white seal script six-character style.
Seeing this, Lin Yue immediately had an appraisal direction.
Then he quickly put the porcelain bottle firmly with both hands and went to view the device.
This is a blue-glazed hollow gold pastel four-switch flower and bird pattern blue and white inner liner. The abdomen is hollowed out, and there is a blue and white inner liner. The turquoise glaze at the mouth of the bottle and the bottom of the bottle is evenly glazed. The bottle neck is a large number of cloud and thunder patterns depicted by the principal on the vermilion and painted with two layers of lotus flowers. The switches on all sides are colorful and lifelike flowers and birds. The colors are bright and rosy, and they look very rich.
The instrument-shaped patterns are in line with the characteristics of the Qianlong period.
Lin Yue then looked at the body and glaze color, and quickly compared it with the knowledge in his mind.
All characteristics are in line with the characteristics of the Qianlong period.
At the same time, he recalled the old man's words not long ago, which was passed down from his ancestors. It can be seen that the age is long, so 90% of this pastel porcelain bottle is genuine, at least he has not found any traces of imitation.
At this moment, Lin Yue heard the sound of the water flowing behind him, knowing that the old man repaired the carving knife in the water with unknown material.
Thinking of water, Lin Yue immediately looked at the bottom and bottom of the pastel porcelain bottle.
How did you forget this characteristic?
The inner wall and bottom of the pastel porcelain bottle are filled with green colors, which is commonly known as "green green bottom". This green bottom is popular from Qianlong until the end of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. The "green green bottom" in the Qianlong Dynasty was extremely light. When looking at the light side, the glaze surface has extremely fine wrinkles, like the fine waves formed by the breeze blowing through the calm lake surface. The green color is very tightly attached to the white glaze, and there is almost no glaze explosion.
Lin Yue approached the bottom of the bottle and looked carefully there. He found that some small holes of varying sizes were like insects. This is a typical imagination of explosive glaze.
Descendants imitation!
Lin Yue immediately decided, but at the same time he became suspicious of the old man’s words just now. This pastel is obviously a copy of the Republic of China. Why did the old man say it was passed down from his ancestors?
Did I get the wrong identification?
Or is he lying to me?
In order to prevent errors, Lin Yue checked the glaze phenomenon on the inner wall again, which was definitely obvious. Moreover, "green inside and green bottom" is not light, but has a hint of brightness.
Fake!
Lin Yue made a judgment with certainty.
He immediately stood up and said, "The juniors have finished the identification."
Just as Lin Yue spoke, the old man also spoke: "It's repaired."
Hearing this, the two of them immediately turned around, one old and one young and looked at each other and smiled.
The old man's eyes were filled with surprise and admiration and said, "Little guy, you are very good. Just because you have the speed of identification is much better than Chang He when he was young when he was young, but let me tell me the truth first."
Lin Yue looked at the carving knife in the old man's hand and couldn't believe that the sharp carving knife was the original rusty carving knife. There was no trace of rust, it was a well-preserved ancient carving knife.
What a magical skill this requires to restore a carving knife to this extent!
While Lin Yue was deeply shocked, he was also full of admiration for the old man in front of him.
When Lin Yue heard the old man's words, he immediately woke up and said, "I don't know if the identification is correct. I feel that this porcelain bottle is fake."
After saying that, he stared at the old man's face, trying to see if he had made a wrong judgment.
But the old man's face did not change at all, and he just said lightly: "Oh? Then is this porcelain authentic or fake?"
"Fake."
Lin Yue said with certainty.
Chapter completed!
