Give out a recommendation ticket to encourage, this is not too much to ask!
Since the sea of pens is a fake, Jin Jewelry will naturally not continue to display the sea of pens.
At this time, two beautiful reception ladies dragged their long skirts and came carrying trays. On the trays, there were pieces of "treasures."
After the receptionist put the treasure into the display case again, the crowd started talking again.
"Aren't these two inkstones among the four treasures of the study?"
"Can this be false?"
As everyone has said, this inkstone is indeed a study utensil. Because of its solid nature and immortality passed down through generations, it is also a treasured collection of scholars of all ages. The materials of the inkstone are rich and diverse, including Duan stone, She stone, Taohe stone, and Chengni.
There are also stone inkstones, jade inkstones, tile inkstones, and porcelain inkstones, and what is shown now is the first stone inkstone that appeared.
Zhen Minglang also immediately noticed the two stone inkstones displayed in the display cabinet.
The quality of this stone inkstone is exquisite, the texture is silky, and the complexion is so beautiful that it really doesn't look like an imitation.
However, at this time, Mr. Zhuang was standing by, and Zhen Minglang did not dare to make a hasty judgment.
Seemingly sensing what Zhen Minglang was thinking, Mr. Zhuang patiently asked, "What, Minglang, don't you have anything to say about these two stone inkstones?"
"Haha." Zhen Minglang smiled indifferently, with a respectful expression on his face. "Mr. Zhuang, I actually want to learn from you how to tell whether this stone inkstone is genuine or not. To be honest, after appreciating the pen sea just now, my eyes are a little dazed now.
.”
Mr. Zhuang knew that Zhen Minglang was being humble in front of him, and Mr. Zhuang was very pleased that young people could be humble and respect their elders.
"There are actually four steps in appreciating this inkstone. First of all, you need to look at the material, craftsmanship, appearance, inscriptions, etc. of the inkstone. There are many kinds of material inkstones. In addition to stone inkstones, there are also ink inkstones, jade inkstones, and iron inkstones.
, tile inkstones, there were clay inkstones in the Tang Dynasty, crystal inkstones in the Song Dynasty, and paper inkstones in the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, the materials are different and the taste is different. For the current stone inkstones, we focus on its craftsmanship and appearance.
From the naked eye's perspective, this stone inkstone is indeed in good quality, and the naturally formed stone patterns on this stone inkstone have clear textures, and the image of Kuixing is also lifelike."
Kuixing image?
When Zhen Minglang heard Mr. Zhuang talking about the image of Kuixing, he also thought that Kuixing was the god in charge of officialdom in ancient legends. If a stone inkstone was engraved with Kuixing, the price of the stone inkstone would usually be several times more expensive than others.
Zhen Minglang noticed this stone inkstone. Indeed, the uncanny image of Kuixing on it was a unique work.
"The second touch," Mr. Zhuang continued to talk patiently, "touch is to stroke the inkstone with your hand to feel whether its surface is smooth and delicate. If it is smooth, the quality of the stone is good, and if it is rough, the quality of the stone is poor. This is very simple, I believe you understand it!
"
"Three knocks is to hold the inkstone with your fingers. After tapping it lightly with your fingers, listen carefully to the sound. If it is a Duan inkstone, the sound of wood is better, followed by the sound of tiles, and the sound of gold is the worst. If it is a She inkstone, the sound of crispness is the best.
Okay. Now this stone inkstone makes a wooden sound, which is wonderful."
"The fourth wash is to wash away the ink marks on the inkstone and return it to its original appearance. This makes it easier to see whether there are any signs of damage or repair on the inkstone. At this time, we may notice that the color of the repaired areas is different from the original color of the inkstone.
There's a big difference."
"The last step is to weigh the weight of the inkstone. For inkstones of the same size, the heavier one is better, and the lighter one is second best."
When Mr. Zhuang said what he said, the onlookers were stunned. From Mr. Zhuang's description, many people also believed that these two stone inkstones were genuine.
"Mr. Zhuang, what you said is true, but now we are only looking at the stone inkstone from outside the display cabinet. Could it be that we can only identify it by looking at it?"
Mingliang suddenly became interested in Shi Yan, and immediately approached Mr. Zhuang to ask.
Mr. Zhuang smiled ghostly, and found that his bright eyes were shining brightly. Zhen Minglang looked at Shi Yan intently, and he also had an idea.
In fact, when telling Zhen Minglang how to taste the stone inkstone, Mr. Zhuang had already appraised the two Duanshi stone inkstones.
"Bright, bright, I will give you a question now. The question is about this stone inkstone. In fact, one of the two stone inkstones is a fake. I want you to help me select it."
Mr. Zhuang suddenly said that one of the two stone inkstones was a fake, but Mingliang was shocked.
Because the two stone inkstones in the display cabinet are indeed exactly the same, including the craftsmanship and appearance, down to the figure, folds, and charm of Kuixing's image.
Not only was it bright, Factory Director Wang, who had shown respect to Mr. Zhuang just now, also looked at Mr. Zhuang with a look of disapproval. Not to mention that the eyes of others also revealed a sense of disbelief.
At this moment, only Zhen Minglang was always paying attention to the stone inkstone in the display cabinet.
Zhen Minglang guessed that if both of these stone inkstones were genuine, they would not be allowed to be tasted by Jin Jewelry today, and what Mr. Zhuang said just now was an answer to the explanation.
Because the two stone inkstones are almost lifelike and identical, it has become an unsolved problem for so long. Then, one of the two stone inkstones must be true and the other false.
And the stone inkstone I was looking at just now had no spiritual energy coming out. Could it be that it was a fake?
"You guys start identifying them. If you can identify them, I can introduce you to become a member of the Cultural Relics Appreciation Association. By then, it will be commonplace to come into contact with these cultural relics and antiques. Your appreciation ability will also be improved to a higher level."
Mr. Zhuang's words did not seduce Mingliang very much, but they were very important to Zhen Mingliang, a person who urgently needed the means to appreciate cultural relics.
Almost at the same time, Zhen Mingliang began to look at another Duanshi inkstone with the same appearance with all his concentration.
Like the previous one, the stone quality, texture, and shape of this stone inkstone are all very exquisite. The difference is that when Zhen Minglang's gaze approaches the stone inkstone and penetrates into it, a stream of luck also comes from the stone inkstone.
flow out.
The strands of airway that flowed like gossamer, after getting close to Zhen Minglang's gaze, also filled Zhen Minglang's eyes.
Comfortable…
Once again, Zhen Minglang shifted his gaze to the previous stone inkstone, looked at it intently, and looked through it for a second. However, the inside of this stone inkstone was filled with fine mud that had not been filtered. It could be said that it was like gold and jade on the outside.
Nodding, Zhen Mingliang already had the answer in his heart. But at this moment, Zhen Mingliang looked confused.
Looking at the two stone inkstones repeatedly, Mingliang couldn't help but feel dizzy.
"I think both pieces are genuine. If one is really a fake, then this one is better."
Mingliang irresponsibly pointed at the fake piece that Zhen Mingliang also thought was fake.
"Are you sure?" Mr. Zhuang asked bluntly.
Seeing Mr. Zhuang's bright eyes, Mingliang immediately changed his mind, "No, I think this piece is a fake."
Mingliang changed his mind in an instant, and Mr. Zhuang also knew that it was unnecessary to ask him for his opinion. Even if he guessed correctly, it only meant that he had a 50% success rate.
After asking for Mingliang's opinion, Mr. Zhuang took a serious liking to Zhen Mingliang. In fact, Mr. Zhuang also noticed that Zhen Mingliang had been appreciating the stone inkstone attentively.
"What, are you sure?"
Zhen Minglang withdrew his gaze and rubbed his eyes with his hands, which relieved the fatigue of his eyes for a long time. In fact, let alone a fledgling young connoisseur, even those in the connoisseurship world would not look good just by their eyesight.
Find out whether this stone inkstone is true or false.
Therefore, Mr. Zhuang also asked Zhen Minglang with a skeptical attitude. Mr. Zhuang also thought that even if Zhen Minglang couldn't guess it, it was normal. It was really beyond the control of his age and experience. And if he could guess it,
?That…
"I think the piece of fake that Mingliang is referring to..."
Mr. Zhuang thought that Zhen Mingliang had the same opinion as Mingliang. Although it was expected, he was still a little disappointed. "What?"
"This fake piece should be real. And the real fake is the other piece."
Zhen Minglang said it with certainty. The real fake he was referring to was the same opinion as Mr. Zhuang.
At this moment, it was no longer the onlookers who were frantic, but Mr. Zhuang himself.
Zhen Minglang guessed it right?
No,
He was right.
Just relying on his eyesight, he was able to tell that these two stone inkstones had exactly the same appearance, one was fake and the other was real.
"Why do you say this stone inkstone is a fake?"
Mr. Zhuang suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and needed to find an answer for himself. A young man in his twenties was actually able to find out the true and false among two identical stone inkstones.
It’s incredible…
Zhen Minglang couldn't find any reason to convince Mr. Zhuang at this moment, because he only relied on the light of perspective and the spiritual energy flowing out of the stone inkstone.
After Zhen Minglang thought for a moment, he raised his head and said, "Feel... I guess..."
