"He Qing, what are you thinking about?" Che Juan's voice suddenly sounded in his ears. He Qing immediately calmed down and looked back at Che Juan who was standing behind him. [Read the full text...]
"Oh, it's nothing." He then shook his head and replied, "It seems that you all value that blue and white plum vase."
"Of course!" Che Juan nodded vigorously and said, "That is a national treasure-level item, extremely precious! He Qing, why did you say that? Did you see something?"
Seeing that something was wrong with He Qing's expression, she couldn't help but ask. It goes without saying that He Qing's eyesight was obvious to her. It wouldn't be surprising if he discovered something.
"Actually, it's nothing. I just feel that the porcelain... I don't know how to put it. I always feel that something is wrong." After hesitating for a moment, He Qing said this, but his voice was very low, except for Che Juan.
No one heard it, but that's it. At this moment, Chen Qin and Director Lu were engrossed in discussing the national treasure porcelain. Who would have noticed the subtle changes in the expression on He Qing's face, and of course they didn't pay attention to what he and Che Juan said.
if.
"Ah?!" However, Che Juan's reaction was huge. When she heard He Qing's answer, her face suddenly changed, and she looked surprised and anxious.
"He Qing, what problem do you see?! Don't scare me!" Che Juan asked quickly.
Of course he was very scared about this. After all, that thing was the archaeological result of her and Mr. Pan. If something went wrong, all the glory he had gained from it would be gone in an instant, and it would attract all kinds of criticism.
"Chejuan, this matter is no small matter!" He Qing's expression suddenly became solemn. He suddenly grabbed Chejuan and pulled her to a quiet place.
"He Qing, what's wrong?!" Che Juan asked with a frown. She had no idea what happened, which made He Qing suddenly become so nervous. It was as if he predicted a catastrophe that was about to happen.
Want to lie?
He Qing said in a deep voice: "Chejuan, it's getting late. The exhibition will open soon. You'd better make a decision before starting. Whether the porcelain will be exhibited or not."
"Why not exhibit it?!" Che Juan stared at He Qing in confusion. She was confused and didn't know what he wanted to say. However, she still thought of the most terrifying result, so she asked again, "
He Qing, do you think that the blue and white porcelain plum vase we took out from the Ming Dynasty royal tomb is not a real Ming Dynasty blue and white plum vase?! It is a fake?! But how is this possible?!"
"How is it impossible?!" He Qing replied in a low voice, "It's just that someone used a blind trick! You studied archeology with Master Pan, so you should have some understanding of the situation in the antique shop, right? Do you know that cultural relic dealers often use
A kind of deceptive method called "burying landmines" is to put cultural relics or even fakes back into ancient tombs, and then "excavate" them from the tombs. In this way, the value is immeasurable, and most of the relics placed in the tombs and reburied are
What is counterfeit is not genuine.”
"No way?!" Che Juan turned pale with fright after hearing He Qing's explanation. She never imagined that He Qing could see this problem. A "national treasure" recognized by all the experts in the museum
"Heavy weapon", in the eyes of the other party, turned out to be a fake "land mine" planted by cultural relic dealers.
"Really!" He Qing nodded solemnly and said, "Chejuan, I don't want to wait until I see you exposed in public before I tell you! This exhibition held by your museum sends a message to many collectors and appraisers in the industry.
If you get the invitation, they will come in as soon as the exhibition opens. There will be many people and I think someone will spot the problem!"
What He Qing said was the worst possible outcome, and Che Juan panicked for a moment and didn't know what to do.
She was as confident as Master Pan and the others. From the very beginning, she was able to identify that the large bottle was the original Ming Dynasty palace wormwood. After all, the thing was unearthed by their hands. It was unearthed in perfect condition from the first 11 values.
It had only been a few days, and during this period they had been waiting around the cemetery to see if anyone had touched the cultural relic?
"Then I...I'll go talk to Teacher Pan!" Che Juan calmed down and said.
Although they were confident, she could not ignore He Qing's words. He was a rising star in the appraisal industry and had extraordinary eyesight.
This kind of thing is not afraid of ten thousand, but afraid of the worst. If He Qing's opinion is correct after final verification, then they must stop the exhibition of the porcelain first, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous. Not only will the reputation of their archaeological team be damaged, but also the reputation of their archaeological team will be damaged.
The reputation of the entire museum may be greatly affected.
"Well, go ahead." He Qing responded happily.
So Che Juan ran away quickly, and after a while, she and Mr. Pan were seen walking towards this side in a hurry.
"Xiao He, what's wrong with that piece of porcelain?! This... this is impossible! Do you have complete evidence?!"
As soon as he walked up to He Qing, Mr. Pan asked anxiously, as if he was burning with anxiety.
He Qing replied solemnly: "Master Pan, if I hadn't seen it correctly, I would never dare to lie! I can only tell you now that the blue and white plum vase from the Ming Dynasty is not from the tomb, but
A high imitation, but an old imitation, a work from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, its workmanship is comparable to that of a 'Zhu imitation'! It's getting late now, and the exhibition will start in a few minutes. I'll be waiting there then.
Visitors outside the door will all come in to watch, and the blue and white porcelain is the main exhibit today, so everyone will pay more attention to it."
As he spoke, he glanced at the watch on his left wrist, looking anxious.
"I know! I'll do it right away!" Mr. Pan seemed to be deeply aware of the seriousness of the matter, so he complained to Lu Chu. Then he turned around and walked quickly back to Director Lu and others.
around?
"Old Chen, Director Lu, we have to accept this blue and white porcelain immediately!" As he stepped forward, Mr. Pan instructed with a serious face, and ordered a staff member beside him to ask the guard to announce the opening of the event.
The time is delayed by half an hour.
"Master Pan, what's wrong?! What happened?!"
When Mr. Pan said those words, everyone present was shocked and looked at him with strange expressions.
Director Lu was even more surprised and said incomprehensibly: "Master Pan, what on earth is going on?! Isn't everything arranged? The exhibition will start in a few minutes, why do you suddenly want to put this
Withdraw the porcelain?! We have been preparing for several days, isn’t it just for this moment today?! If such a beautiful piece of porcelain is exhibited to the outside world, it will greatly enhance the reputation of our museum!"
"I'm afraid it's not as simple as we thought!" Mr. Pan sighed, "This thing is wrong. As for why, it's too late to discuss it now. Someone will naturally give us an explanation later! Let's do it, remove this thing, ours
The exhibition can still go on!”
"Something is wrong?!"
As soon as these words came out, Director Lu and others were in an uproar.
"Old Pan, did Brother He say that? Did he see the problem?" Chen Qin, who was among them, seemed to understand something. He pointed to He Qing, who was standing not far away from Che Juan, and asked.
"Yes, that's what he said. Even though he is young, he is not simple!" Mr. Pan said excitedly, "He just said it very clearly. He thought there was something wrong with the thing, so he kept it just in case.
It’s well put away.”
"That young man?! He can see the problem with this piece of porcelain at a glance?!" Director Lu said with a bitter smile, "Master Pan, this... how is this possible?! We have so many experts who have identified it over days and nights.
The things he found were not as accurate as a young man’s first glance?! Moreover, the discovery of this porcelain was witnessed by all of us. The imperial tomb was very complete before we discovered it, with no trace of theft. How could the contents inside be revealed?
question?!"
"This question really doesn't make sense." Chen Qin nodded and said, "But Lao Pan is right. Brother He is not an ordinary young man. He has really good eyesight. Maybe you have forgotten that the Ming Dynasty item we collected before
The big blue and white jar in the blank period came from his hands. Ordinary people really can't find such good things! Director Lu, according to the situation, for the time being, it seems that we can only do what Lao Pan said and remove the things.
Let's go, put another larger piece of porcelain in there!"
Director Lu looked at Chen Qin, then at Mr. Pan, and finally his eyes were fixed on He Qing. He pondered for a moment, and finally nodded and sighed: "Okay, let's do it! Hey
, Really, it’s all in vain! We all relied on this piece of porcelain to support the show. Now that the porcelain has been replaced, how will we explain it to our friends in the industry later?”
Mr. Pan said: "Just say that the things are not ready yet and I will show them to them later. There is no other way!"
Director Lu looked in the direction of He Qing with a half-smile and said, "I would like to hear what Mr. He has to say. He actually said that such a perfect piece of blue and white porcelain is a fake!"
The thing was discovered by Mr. Pan and confirmed by Chen Qin and the appraisal committee. Now both of them suggested removing the thing. He had no choice but to do as he was told.
So they quickly moved the porcelain in the display cabinet and replaced it with another large blue and white vase. However, the porcelain they replaced was far from spectacular, and the display effect was greatly reduced. Curator Lu and the others were helpless about this.
And all of this was "provoked" by He Qing. If he didn't give an explanation by then, it would be hard to escape the blame of Director Lu and others.
"Hey brother, the things have been taken away."
Later, Mr. Pan walked back to He Qing, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's just that I still don't know. How did you tell that there was something wrong with that piece of porcelain?"
He Qing smiled calmly and said, "Master Pan, don't worry. Can you call Master Chen? I have a secret to tell him."
At this moment, no one but him knew that there was a huge secret hidden behind the fake blue and white plum vase!
