The meals were prepared very deliciously and delicately. After several days of drinking plain porridge with no taste, Hao Chuan simply fell in love with these delicious meals.

After dinner, Sixth Master called Hao Chuan and Tang Shiqi to his antique room.The last time Hao Chuan pitted Chen Zhi, he made a lot of room for the old man.After Mr. Liu retired, he had nothing else to do, so he took a bite out of appreciating antiques. Before he knew it, he came back after finding more than a dozen good things, and took Hao Chuan to appreciate them.

Hao Chuan just looked at it with a playful mentality at first, but after watching, he found a problem.What should I say about the dozen or so treasures, only two are authentic and good, but the others cannot be said to be fakes, but are spliced ​​together like the similar situations he has seen before.

Hao Chuan knew that some time ago, in order to set himself a trap, Song Lin bought a large batch of such high-quality imitations, but he stopped them and refused to accept them.Later, this kind of thing almost never happened in his shop, and Hao Chuan gradually put it behind him.

I didn't expect to see these things again in the past few months.

It has to be said that the workmanship of these imitations is very superb, even to the point of confusing the real ones, otherwise, with Liu Ye's attainments in the antique world, he would not have received so many spliced ​​things back.

In order to be cautious, Hao Chuan picked up the magnifying glass on the table, and carefully checked the place where he found clues. He did not hide the problem he found from Master Liu. He took the Yuan blue and white porcelain in his hand and thought about it , pondered for a moment, and asked the sixth master: "Old man, I wonder if you still remember the painting of Tang Bohu. At that time, an identical work was found in the Song family. Those two paintings are both real and fake. , I later repaired it into a picture, do you still have any impression of this thing?"

Sixth Master's eyes widened immediately, with anger appearing on his face, he looked at Hao Chuan and asked, "Boss Hao, why did you bring this up all of a sudden? Could it be... Could it be that the things in my collection are the same as that painting?" reason?"

Hao Chuan sighed, nodded and said, "These guys are very skilled at making fakes. Look at the mouth of this bottle. Although the patterns are connected together, there are very fine holes at the joints. These holes are so tiny that they are almost smaller than a strand of hair. It is several times smaller, and it happens to be covered by the dark blue pattern. If I expected correctly, these fiber holes were instantly formed by high-temperature calcination."

"In order to make the counterfeiting technique more realistic, they adopted the single-sided firing method, that is to say, above the seam, the design and color are flat without any abnormality, but at the lower part of the pattern, please take a closer look." Hao Chuan said, Pass the magnifying glass in his hand to Master Liu, and let him look at the place he pointed out.

Master Liu took the magnifying glass in one hand, and the blue and white porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty handed over by Hao Chuan in the other hand. When it first arrived, Master Liu liked it very much, and he would come in every day after dinner to play with it.Hearing Hao Chuan say there was a problem now, Master Liu felt as if he had eaten a stinky fly, and felt very uncomfortable.

But he still squinted his eyes and looked carefully at what Hao Chuan said. He didn't miss a single bit. If Hao Chuan hadn't pointed out the abnormal places to him, Liu Ye wouldn't have paid attention to these tiny details, even if Hao Chuan After pointing it out to him, Liu Ye still stared at it for a long time before finally seeing this abnormality.

After discovering that there was indeed something wrong with this treasure, Master Liu felt a sense of emptiness in his heart. He seemed to have aged a little in an instant, and his interest was completely lost. Looking at Hao Chuan, he said dejectedly: "That is to say , Is this thing a waste product?"

Hao Chuan shook his head, with a solemn expression, and said, "It can't be said to be a waste product. To be precise, this piece of Yuan blue and white is similar to that ancient painting. The upper and lower pieces are indeed genuine Yuan blue and white. It's the interface that's broken."

"But the counterfeiters, what are they trying to do? Since they are all genuine products, why do they make such a good baby? Are these people mentally ill? They are really crazy!" Liu Ye was very angry. He played with antiques all his life, but he didn't expect that when he was old, he would drill eyes frequently, and it seemed that they were all done by a group of counterfeiters, which made Liu Ye feel very uncomfortable.

Hao Chuan frowned, and he was also wondering what the group's intentions were.

After much deliberation, Hao Chuan only thought of two reasons, and he said: "I guess there are only two possibilities. The first is that this treasure was originally a damaged item. Their falsification is to repair the treasure; as for the second The first reason is very simple, to put it bluntly, it is two words, profit."

"Think about it, if they have a large number of such treasures in their hands, most of them are damaged. No matter how precious the treasure is, it is worthless if it is damaged. But destroying these things for nothing is too wasteful, so They will carry out inductive man-made repairs, and after synthetic treasures, there will be a lot of money, so I think this is the reason why they worked so hard to get this batch of things."

Master Liu nodded, sighed, and said: "People nowadays can do anything for money, fake food, fake clothes, fake drinks, and now even the business of antiques is avoided. There is no fate of counterfeiting."

Hao Chuan smiled, and said: "Antiques are a huge profit industry. In the early stage, fakes were purely handmade, and in the later stage, fakes were mass-produced. For the sake of money, it's normal to do this. Where did you get these things from?" Hao Chuan said a little Looking at these dozens of things curiously, these things have different years and shapes, and he really admires the people who made these things in his heart.

In any case, their level of attainment in this area has really reached an extremely high level, and more importantly, when they carried out the integration and repairs, they did not use tricks to sell dog meat, but used It is made of real genuine parts. From this point of view, these people have a bit of conscience.

"Oh, this is exactly what I asked you to discuss." Liu Ye sighed again, and said, "Most of these things were bought from the Song Family Auction House, and Lao Song revealed to me I got the news that the Song family's antique and jade industry has finalized their plan to enter Songhai City. In the past few days, the little son of the Song family is personally discussing this matter. Old Song still wants me to come Time went over to cheer, and half-sold and half-sold this batch of goods to me."

"Then what are you going to do now?" Hearing the news, Hao Chuan's expression was serious.
