The famous Xuande furnace in the Ming Dynasty was made of red copper.
Of course, it would be impossible to make a Xuande furnace simply by using red copper, so craftsmen in the Ming Dynasty added precious metals such as gold and silver to create a hard alloy.
Therefore, the wind-milled copper that has been circulated as tribute from foreign countries is actually natural red copper.
Apparently the middle-aged man also understood a little bit, so his expression became a little bad.
He looked at the copperware in front of him, and he really couldn't tell if it wasn't made of red copper.
But if it is made of red copper, it is not easy to process it into a large incense burner more than 40 centimeters high.
Of course, it’s not impossible, but it definitely couldn’t be done during the Western Zhou Dynasty.
I finally got rid of this one, but it won’t be easy to get around next time.
Identifying treasures is a kind of enjoyment.
But it’s more difficult to identify fake ones at a glance.
What's even more uncomfortable is that he still needs to prove that this is a fake.
For example, the porcelain in the hands of the person in front of me is obviously a modern low-quality imitation of Yuan blue and white. People say that this part is right and that part is right, but in his eyes, it is all right.
This is the first time he has really met the National Treasure Gang. No matter how you say it, their things are Yuan Qinghua.
People don't care about the soil in the maangang or the greenness in the suma. If you want to talk to them about aging, they will talk to you about rust spots.
If you want to tell him about Macang soil, he will tell you about the characteristics of the Yuan Dynasty cloud dragon pattern.
If you want to tell him about Suma Liqing, he will directly tell you about the patterns. Anyway, what he said is correct. If you don't agree, then you are incompetent.
In the end, Chen Wenzhe was sprayed and smeared all over his face, and he was almost pointed at his nose and scolded!
Fortunately, the company's security guards were very effective and pulled this person away directly.
"I didn't expect that the profession of appraiser is as dangerous as that of a doctor. Fortunately, the people who come here are somewhat literate and no one uses the knife."
"Well, our job is much safer than that of doctors!"
"Okay, okay, keep working."
At this time, Chen Wenzhe also discovered other tricks on the counter.
The first-level appraiser at the counter has already taken a back seat at this time.
At this time, Chen Wenzhe realized why he brought his assistant here.
Just let them watch and learn? What good thing do you think? They still need to practice.
After a while, his words were worn out, and it seemed that he was asking for it.
"You two have learned something after watching this for so long, right? Come on, Ye Chengfeng, you come first."
Chen Wenzhe glanced at the small appliqué bowl in front of him. Although it was done well, he could see the stitching of the appliqué at a glance.
He really didn't want to continue wasting his words on these laymen, so Chen Wenzhe decisively sold Ye Chengfeng.
Chen Wenzhe picked up his water glass and planned to drink some water.
As soon as he turned around, he saw Chen Jiadong, who was leisurely and contented not far behind him.
"Xiao Chen, you finally understand. Now you know why those seniors don't want to come here, right?"
"You mean, it's not that they are really busy, but they just don't want to come over to collect the money?"
"You can't say that. They are really busy, but they really don't want to come here to waste their saliva. You are lucky today. You actually encountered a large piece of gold and that rouge red piece. I have been here for a month.
Class, I haven’t encountered a single valuable painting or calligraphy work.”
"so tough?"
"What do you think? It's not that there are no good things delivered, but that many people know the quality of their own things. Good things are either sent to be photographed or go directly upstairs, without our turn at all."
Chen Wenzhe nodded, this pawn business is really not easy.
Originally, he thought that he would be having a hard time today, but he didn't expect that in Chen Jiadong's eyes, he was lucky.
However, it makes sense to think about it, he completed two transactions worth more than one million today.
In the past, such big business usually went directly upstairs. Where would there be a queue here?
While chatting, I took a look at Ye Chengfeng's appraisal. Just like that, I actually spent the whole morning.
I had dinner at noon and took a nap, and when I went to work in the afternoon, there were miraculously fewer people.
No, there are not many people, but there are fewer people queuing up.
Looking at the crowds of people gathered in twos and threes in various corners of the hall, Chen Wenzhe knew that these were non-staff members who were eating at the pawn shop.
But the regular workers who actually go to the pawn shop to eat, don't come here.
"Chengfeng, Lao Mo is still busy?" After taking a sip of tea, Chen Wenzhe watched the performance in front of him happily.
"Well, I heard that the boss of Ciguzhai is here, and Team Leader Mo is waiting for him."
"Hey, isn't that your business?"
"The business is just for me to contact you and complete the business. After the business is completed and the people are here, can I still appraise the things you brought?"
As he said that, Ye Chengfeng looked at Chen Wenzhe with a slightly red face.
Chen Wenzhe looked at the purple clay pot in his hand amusedly. This thing was very old.
"Dude, do you know that the pawn shop has recently hired a new group of interns?"
Chen Wenzhe ignored Ye Chengfeng and instead greeted the customers outside.
The man was a young man in his twenties, and he was obviously young-skinned, so he was a little embarrassed when Chen Wenzhe said that.
Ye Chengfeng and Zhao Fei were both stunned. Did these people come here deliberately?
Just because they are easy to bully, they use fake products to get into trouble!
However, they really couldn't see what was wrong with the purple clay pot in their hands.
"What does real purple sand look like?" The young man opposite didn't answer, and Chen Wenzhe didn't feel sorry for himself. He turned around and started to question Ye Chengfeng.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Fei responded faster: "Really purple clay? This pot is made from old purple clay that has been aged for many years. The starlight and melting point are very clear and evenly distributed, and the hand marks are also very delicate. It is a good pot!"
Chen Wenzhe was stunned for a moment, and then the tea leaves in his mouth almost spit in her face.
However, Chen Wenzhe soon realized that Zhao Fei seemed to be repeating his teacher's words.
It's better to have no books than to have no books at all. In the antique business, you really can't get away with just reading a few books.
"You are right, but it goes without saying that this is an old purple sand that has been worn for many years, because it is not old."
Seeing that Zhao Fei's face turned red, Chen Wenzhe could only shake his head. How could he be an appraiser if he was so thin-skinned?
"This pot looks very neat. Even at first glance, it seems to be a work of a master. However, from such a distance, I can smell the pungent smell. This is obviously a motorcycle pot."
"Motorcycle pot?" Zhao Fei and Ye Chengfeng both looked confused.
Chen Wenzhe was a little speechless. With this level, he has become a trainee appraiser? The most important thing is that he is at the same level!
He has to think of a way to speed up the process. It seems that it is not difficult to complete ten million-level transactions.
If it really couldn't be completed, he could get some tourmalines and sell them.
