It was almost time to get off work, and there were not many customers in the lobby. The few male colleagues at the counter all gathered around after seeing the good cigarettes.
He took it out to be smoked, so Chen Wenzhe gave the cigarette directly to Ye Chengfeng.
Just for a moment, a large number of puffing people gathered at the door.
"You are all the backbone of the company, right? The salary should not be low. Can you afford a hundred yuan of cigarettes?"
While smoking, Chen Wenzhe asked curiously.
"I can afford it, but I definitely can't smoke it, otherwise my wife will fight for my life."
"I don't have a wife, but if I smoke this kind of cigarette, my parents will come after me and cut me into pieces. If I have this spare money, why don't I go on a blind date and ask a girl to blow me off? What if someone is blind and falls in love with me?
What? These are the exact words of my parents."
"My son has started going to kindergarten, and the burden is heavy."
"I have to pay off my mortgage."
“Car loan!”
Chen Wenzhe stopped talking. All living beings are suffering!
When I smoke it, I feel that it tastes very good, and it can definitely be called the best among high-end cigarettes.
In particular, the smoke is soft in the mouth, but not lacking in thickness, which is endlessly memorable.
No wonder many smokers rate it very highly, and it is truly a good smoke.
A cigarette brought them closer to each other. Only then did Chen Wenzhe know that the previous assessment of the belt was often encountered by the trainee appraisers in their hall. If one did not handle it well, he would be punished.
There are other things that are old problems of large state-owned enterprises, such as when Mo Chengfangti slipped up to block the gun just now, which is also a common phenomenon among large domestic enterprises.
Also, many people gathered in the hall are second-level dealers, and some of them are powerful ones who can collect things from outside and resell them to the company here.
It is inevitable that the second-rate dealers in the hall will have to collect the company's wool and even the appraiser's wool.
For example, right now, Chen Wenzhe was just lazy, and Ye Chengfeng came over to call him.
"What? You need to mortgage millions of dollars?" After sitting down, Chen Wenzhe looked at the woman opposite.
Women who come here to pawn things usually pawn bags, jewelry, etc., and rarely antiques, but this woman was holding a piece of ancient jade in her hand.
It looks like ancient jade, but I'm not sure yet.
"She said it was a jade pendant from the Warring States Period." Zhao Fei whispered.
"What do you want me to say? If you can't do it, call someone who knows how to do it quickly. Don't waste my time."
The woman looks to be in her forties, but her face is very dusty. For example, her face is covered with white powder, which looks a bit funny!
The red lips, deep eye shadow, and white powder all over her face are really similar to the geisha dress of the kid on TV. It’s scary!
"Can I take a look? If it's right, I'll collect it for you!"
Chen Wenzhe smiled indifferently, and then started to ask for things.
"Look, I've wasted a lot of time anyway, so this is not enough."
The woman casually placed the small jewelry box in her hand on the counter.
Chen Wenzhe opened it and saw that there was something like a jade pendant inside. However, it seemed that it was not a jade pendant, but a jade belt hook.
This jade belt hook is relatively wide, and one end is like a belt head, flat, so it looks like a jade pendant.
The hook on the other side seems to be broken and has been modified, making it look like a jade shovel.
At first glance, this thing seems pretty good, but when you look closely, you will find that it is not a jade pendant, but a jade belt hook, and it was taken into the ditch.
The quality of this piece of jade is pretty good, but it is not ancient jade. It does not have the chicken bone whiteness of classic ancient jade, and it does not even have any signs of aging.
Looking at the carvings, there are no traces left by ancient weight tools and jade sand.
The weight tool is a disk-shaped jade-making tool, which is fixed on the weight machine with a rotating rod. It is driven by external force and rotates back and forth with the jade-breaking sand to wear the jade material and achieve the purpose of discussion and polishing.
The consequence of this is that what is cut is a straight line. When cutting an arc, it is also cut slowly one by one. In this way, every cutting mark will have a little arc.
In other words, it will not cut out a very rounded arc, but will always be a little straight.
If you cut a straight line, you will cut a horizontal indentation that is wide and deep in the middle and pointed and shallow at both ends. This kind of knife work is very easy to recognize.
Therefore, after just taking a few glances, Chen Wenzhe said: "It looks very smooth, and seems to be something handed down from ancient times, but it is not something from the Warring States period. It has been around for fifty or sixty years at most. There are obvious modern cutting marks on it. It belongs to
Modern imitation.”
After saying that, he put the things into the box and pushed them back directly to the woman.
"This is the end? Do you understand?" The woman was stunned for a moment, and then shouted in a sharp tone.
Chen Wenzhe frowned and said, "We don't accept this kind of thing."
"What a gold medal pawn, rubbish!" Seeing Chen Wenzhe's firm words, the woman cursed angrily, turned around and left.
"Are you okay?" Zhao Fei said a little scared.
Chen Wenzhe smiled: "It's okay, that thing is a modern imitation. The most important thing is that it is not a jade pendant, but a damaged jade belt hook. But I guess they did it deliberately. It seems to be a jade belt hook."
A jade pendant modified from a hook, but if you really think it is an ancient jade belt hook, you will be fooled."
"Brother Chen, how did you tell?" Ye Chengfeng asked.
"It's actually very simple. Do you know what tools were used to cut jade in ancient times?"
The carving patterns of the weight tools are actually very similar. Although the types of weight tools used in the past dynasties are different, the operation methods are basically the same.
The disc-shaped weight tool is used to polish the jade material at the edge. Each polishing can only complete a short line. Therefore, it must be carved continuously in sections to gradually complete a complete cutting or carving process.
Therefore, when dealing with long and medium-sized lines in a pattern, there will usually be several traces of short-term connections with different widths and sharp ends. At the turning points, you can also see the divergence caused by the connection of short-lines.
A large number of Cong-shaped vessels unearthed in modern times have parallel lines on the surface, which are many and vary in width, and the traces of short-term connections with sharp ends are also very obvious.
In addition, the jade jade from the tomb of the Nanyue King of the Western Han Dynasty unearthed in Yangcheng is decorated with scroll-shaped valley patterns, showing obvious divergence caused by short-term connections.
Those who are not professionals cannot imitate these traces at all, and they do not even know that there are so many details.
The most they imitate are some ancient patterns. They take it for granted that the characteristics of the patterns are the same and the quality of the jade is about the same. Even if it is a high imitation, it is actually far different.
After two days of official work, Chen Wenzhe finally figured out that this pawn shop was actually similar to his antique shop, and there were only a few types of things he encountered.
He has encountered almost all of these antiques. Even if he has never seen them, he has seen pictures, and even made them in his dreams.
It was naturally easy for him to identify such things.
In fact, the methods he can use so far are only old-fashioned techniques. His real porcelain-making skills have not yet been used for appraisal!
No, for the motorcycle pot before, he still used porcelain.
