Chapter 217 Crazy Blue and White Porcelain (Part 2)
He Qing asked for two mirrors, but no one knew what he was using them for. At this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on him, and their eyes were full of doubts.
After getting the lens, He Qing looked at the big bottle with all his concentration. He seemed to be thinking about something. After a while, he exhaled softly, and then said: "Okay, everyone, let's find it now."
This plum vase must be missing."
As he said that, he picked up the very small mirror and carefully stuffed it into the small mouth of the plum bottle, as if he was doing some experiment. Everyone became more and more surprised. Director Lu, who was in an extremely anxious mood, opened his eyes wide in surprise.
Endless.
After inserting the small lens into the mouth of the bottle and adjusting the angle, He Qing moved another mirror up, facing the small lens, and the two mirrors were placed in a contrasting position.
Seeing this, Director Lu, Mr. Pan and others looked at each other. They were all puzzled by He Qing's extremely strange behavior. However, Mr. Zheng, who was standing in the crowd, looked slightly strange. He seemed to be watching.
Something happened.
After working on it carefully for a while, He Qing had a hearty smile on his face and said, "Director Lu, it's ready."
"What's okay?" Director Lu asked in surprise.
Not only him, but most of the people present were confused, but seeing He Qing's confident look, they couldn't help but get excited, and they were all very curious as to what the result of the other party's "experiment" would be.
He Qing replied solemnly: "That's the result you want to see. I said this is just a high imitation, and now I have shown the evidence. I believe everyone will have no doubts after seeing it."
"Where is the evidence?!" Director Lu asked excitedly.
After saying that, they all involuntarily took a few steps forward and came closer.
"Xiao He, are you saying that the secret mark of this high-imitation porcelain is near the mouth of the bottle, and you used two mirrors to see it?" Mr. Zheng, who had already understood it, asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, master, that's it." He Qing nodded and said, "Master, look. From the mirror, we can see that there is a secret mark on the inner wall not far below the mouth of the bottle, like 'Zhu Fang'
'It's the same mark left on the porcelain."
"Oh?" According to what He Qing said, Mr. Zheng immediately looked at the mirror covering it with breathless concentration.
Through the lens, he could vaguely see a certain part of the inner wall of the porcelain.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but blurt out: "Really! This thing is really a replica!"
As soon as the exclamation came out, Director Lu and everyone standing nearby were startled. They didn't know what Mr. Zheng saw in the mirror.
But now that we have figured it out, the "experiment" He Qing did was just to show evidence of the high imitation of the porcelain in front of him, and what was reflected in the mirror should be the so-called "missing".
"Old Zheng, what's the sign?" Old Deng asked eagerly.
Mr. Zheng said: "You will know after you come and see for yourself."
"Well, let me take a look first." Mr. Deng couldn't wait to move his head over. Since his eyes were a little blurry due to his old age, he could only take out a magnifying glass and look at the mirror to see what amazing scene was reflected on it.
"Yes, the evidence is conclusive! I just didn't expect that such high imitations are still circulating in the world. This is incredible! But it's no wonder!"
At first glance, he suddenly realized, as if he understood everything in an instant.
However, Director Lu and other people who had not seen the situation did not understand why. Director Lu became extremely nervous for a while. He was afraid of seeing the evidence of high imitation, but also wanted to see it clearly earlier. He felt very conflicted.
.
"Director Lu, take a look for yourself." After Mr. Deng finished reading and confirmed, He Qing greeted Director Lu.
"Yeah!" Director Lu nodded blankly, then he picked up the magnifying glass and moved his arms to the lens with a little trembling.
Through a high-power magnifying glass, Director Lu saw a blurry image reflected in the mirror. He immediately frowned and took a closer look.
It is faintly visible that it is a slightly raised square sign, with two upper and lower groups and four small fonts on it, saying "Fu Ming Xuan Ji".
"oops!"
After seeing it clearly, Director Lu screamed in surprise, slapped his forehead heavily, and said with a look of disappointment and regret: "What a pity, such a beautiful piece of porcelain turns out to be a high imitation! Congratulations, brother.
,Thank you for seeing it, your eyesight is really amazing!"
As soon as his words came out, there was an uproar and everyone was talking about it. There was no doubt anymore, but instead they were surprised and disappointed.
Next, Mr. Pan, Che Juan and others also looked at what was on the lens, and they all suddenly understood.
"Xiao He, your method is really amazing!" After reading everything, Mr. Zheng praised with a smile, "If you hadn't used this method, none of us would have thought of coming here, but that's right, we wouldn't have thought of it at all.
I don’t know where the flaws in the porcelain are - Xiaohe, how did you see it? In fact, it’s great if you can tell that this is a ‘Ming imitation’, it’s so rare!”
He seemed to be getting more and more excited as he spoke, and he was already beaming with joy. He Qing pointed out that the plum vase that was mistaken for a national treasure porcelain was a fake, which shocked everyone. He was naturally very proud of this. After all, He Qing was his apprentice Mingshou.
How could he be unhappy if his disciple did this?
He Qing replied seriously: "I have seen this type of porcelain before, and the situation is similar."
He gave a brief explanation without any specific explanation, and he couldn't explain further. He could tell that it was a high imitation, and he knew that someone had dropped the bag. This was all because of his strange eyesight.
If you rely solely on his actual level, you won’t be able to see any flaws in his performance.
"Master, you should also know the origin of this high imitation, right?" He Qing quickly changed the subject. He just heard Mr. Deng and Mr. Zheng mention some information about the high imitation in front of him, and he knew that the two of them were very interested in it.
They know this, otherwise they would not react so quickly.
Just listen to Mr. Zheng say: "This is of course. 'Ming imitation' was very famous in the past, especially during the Republic of China. Its old-fashioned technology was even worse than 'Zhu imitation', but the porcelain-making technology
It is said that it has been lost. It is difficult to find such high imitations now, but 'Zhu Imitation' is different. There are still masters in this industry who make 'Zhu Imitation'. I heard that they have a set of porcelain making techniques that have been passed down from generation to generation.
Come down."
"Oh, so that's it?" He Qing nodded thoughtfully.
"Master Zheng, you said this is a 'Ming imitation'. What is the origin of this 'Ming imitation'? What does the four-character mark above mean?" Director Lu interjected and asked.
It seems that he knows nothing about this kind of imitation, just like He Qing and others.
Zheng Laodao: "'Fu Ming Xuan Ji' is what Fu Ming Xuan wrote down for easy identification, and 'Fu Ming Xuan' is also called 'Fu Ming Xuan'. It is a porcelain brand in the Qing Dynasty, but it is relatively secretive, just like now
The black market. You must have heard of 'Ming Yuexuan', right?"
"Of course I know this." Director Lu nodded. "It is a kind of arts and crafts that began in the Kangxi period. It is painted with enamel on a glass body and fired at high temperatures. In the past, the craftsmanship was extremely difficult.
High, so only very small utensils, such as snuff bottles, tobacco dishes, etc., were made in the royal kilns, so authentic Gu Yuexuan porcelain is often worth a lot of money."
He casually talked about Gu Yuexuan porcelain. After hearing this, Mr. Zheng nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, that's the one. 'Fu Ming Xuan' and 'Gu Yuexuan' are both made of porcelain. The difference is that one
The official one is a small private workshop. The items produced by 'Fumingxuan' are mainly Ming Dynasty porcelain, imitating the porcelain of various dynasties in the Ming Dynasty. The workmanship is first-class and the fakes can be mistaken for the real ones. At that time, many collectors were impressed. But now
This kind of porcelain is rarely seen in the market, so not many people study it, but I didn’t expect to see one here today.”
"This kind of imitation is very clever!" Director Lu sighed, "None of us noticed it. Fortunately, Brother He was invited, otherwise we would still have been kept in the dark about this!"
“It’s so valuable!”
For a moment, everyone looked at He Qing with admiration and praised him endlessly.
In their eyes, He Qing is a strange person. At least in terms of identification, he has special abilities that ordinary people cannot match.
"Xiao He, thank you very much! You helped us uncover this mystery!"
At this moment, Mr. Pan came up and held He Qing's hand, saying gratefully.
He Qing shook his head and said: "Master Pan, don't be so polite. I'm just doing what I can. Now that the true identity of the Lushan porcelain has been revealed, the next thing to do is to recover the stolen blue and white porcelain."
The plum vase is a real national treasure worth hundreds of millions!"
"Brother He, you are right!" Director Lu said emotionally, "This matter is not trivial. What is lost now is a national treasure and a first-class cultural relic. We must recover it as soon as possible. If anything goes wrong, then the superior
If the cultural relics department is held accountable, we can all bear the blame."
"Call the police!" Mr. Pan shouted angrily.
He Qing said: "Director Lu, Master Pan, since the matter has happened, we must face it properly. Don't mess up the situation first. Not many people know about this matter. For the reputation of your museum,
It's best not to make it too public. If it becomes known to everyone and the porcelain cannot be recovered in the end, it will be really troublesome!"
"What should we do?!" Director Lu was so anxious that he didn't know what to do.
They were worried about this when suddenly, a man walked in in a hurry.
"Old Pan, Director Lu, something serious has happened!"
The person who came was none other than Chen Qin, who He Qing had previously asked to monitor the traitor Wang Hai.
