[Incomplete bronze mirror from the Han Dynasty; it can be repaired, but the repair value needs to be deducted by 1 point!]
[The incomplete bronze sword of the Qin Dynasty can be repaired, but the repair value needs to be deducted by 1 point!]
[Clear the damaged parts with a smooth knife, which can be repaired, but 1 point of repair value needs to be deducted!]
[The incomplete gilt Buddha statue of the Yuan Dynasty can be repaired, but 1 point of repair value needs to be deducted!]
[Qing Dynasty gilt Buddha statues cannot be repaired!]
As each piece of information was given in his mind, Su Xiaofan identified more and more objects.
Most of them are modern handicrafts, but as time goes by, a number of authentic products have also emerged.
It is said that the masters are among the people, and this is absolutely true.
What private collectors brought out today is an eye-opener for Su Xiaofan.
Although the market price of incomplete bronze Ge from the Qin Dynasty is not very high, it is definitely a rare masterpiece for collectors of bronzes.
This Shun Dao from the Qing Dynasty only has a little rust on the handle and is in good condition. Players who like to collect ancient weapons will definitely pick it up.
The bronzes brought by several people can even meet the standards of national first-class cultural relics.
Just like the gilt Buddha statue from the Qing Dynasty, it definitely came from the Qing court manufacturing office and is in perfect condition.
Most of these things are treasures in the collections of various museums. I didn't expect that they can still be seen among the people.
Although the gilt Buddha statue from the Yuan Dynasty is a bit incomplete, its research value on Buddhist culture is even higher.
For these two gilt Buddha statues, if they were put up for auction, the starting price would have to be over three million, and it is very likely that they would even fetch tens of millions.
Su Xiaofan is very fast at appraising items, basically one item per minute.
When encountering genuine items, Su Xiaofan will write down the name and age of the object, and indicate if there are any defects.
But for those things that were made of modern handicrafts and made old, Su Xiaofan returned them with both hands and verbally informed the appraisal results without issuing anything literal.
Although many people are dissatisfied, as evidenced by the video, as long as they get the appraisal certificate from an appraisal agency approved by Su Xiaofan, Su Xiaofan will accept the compensation.
So these people have nothing to say.
Some people turned around and left the venue, while others cursed unwillingly and threatened to go to a professional agency for appraisal.
There were also people waiting at the scene, asking for Jing Shizhen to do another re-evaluation after today’s primary election.
After seeking Jing Shizhen's opinion, about seven or eight people stayed. These are people who firmly believe that their collections are genuine.
These people cannot affect Su Xiaofan's identification speed.
From 2:30 to 5:30 in the afternoon, three hours.
Su Xiaofan actually appraised more than two hundred items on the spot, including all the bronzes and ironware in the collection.
Besides Su Xiaofan, Jing Shizhen, who appraised the most items, only appraised more than 60 items in total, which was less than one-third of Su Xiaofan's.
"Uncle Jing, have a sip of tea..."
Su Xiaofan finished earlier than Jing Shizhen. When he saw that the work over there was finished, he quickly handed over the refilled cup.
The staff also brought hot towels and were busy with the service. Several experts were very tired this afternoon.
"Boy, were you doing a serious appraisal just now?"
While Jing Shizhen was busy working on his own, he also glanced at Su Xiaofan. After discovering Su Xiaofan's appraisal speed, he was also quite frightened.
"Uncle Jing, I can feel things like bronzes when I get my hands on them."
Su Xiaofan was not humble at all at this moment, otherwise he would not be able to explain the speed of identification just now.
"Uncle Jing, this apprentice of yours is very talented, and he is so suitable for bronzes."
An expert from the side came over and said: "To feel this way, it must be because there are many bronzes. Xiao Su will be great in the future and have the talent of a master!"
There is a saying in the antique industry that if you see more antiques and handle more antiques, you will have an intuition to judge whether the antiques are authentic or fake.
There once was a calligraphy master who passed away. He had a distinguished family background and was a descendant of the royal family. His family had numerous antiques.
Later, this man became a disciple of a famous teacher and learned the knowledge of antique appreciation. He handled countless antiques in his life.
He later appraised antiques for people, basically just getting a feel for them.
If it feels right, it is a genuine product, if not, it is a fake. It has never been wrong for decades.
"Don't praise him. I don't know if he made any mistakes."
Jing Shizhen pointed to the people waiting next to him and said: "If he were really a master, these people would not disbelieve his appraisal results."
"Teacher, we still hope you can take a look."
A middle-aged man holding a palm-sized bronze pot said, "This item of mine was taken from abroad. It cannot be fake."
The bronze pot held by the middle-aged man is not a teapot for drinking water. The pot has three legs and a lid on it. It looks a bit like a sacrificial tripod.
"How much did you pay for this pot?"
Jing Shizhen took a look and asked casually.
"Shot in London, 60,000 pounds!" the middle-aged man said.
"It wasn't filmed at the Four Major Banks, was it?"
"No, it's the private collection of an English earl."
The middle-aged man shook his head and said: "That ancestor once came to our country and stole a lot of things. I took this photo back just to bring the national treasure home."
"Your idea is good, but your approach is wrong."
Jing Shizhen waved her hand, looked at Su Xiaofan, and said, "Can you tell me?"
"Everyone is tired. Let me say a few words and let's try to go back as soon as possible."
Su Xiaofan nodded, pointed at six of them, and said: "The objects in your hands are all from the Bronze Village.
However, these objects have been used to erase the imprint of our village, but their origins are absolutely unmistakable.
Your bronze kettle was made no more than twenty years ago. If you don’t believe me, you can take it for a carbon 14 test. If it’s wrong, you bought it for 60,000 pounds, and I’ll compensate you 600,000 pounds!”
Su Xiaofan paused, pointed to the remaining two people, and said: "One of the things you two brought is real, but it is too damaged and has no market value.
The other one is old. If you don’t believe me, you can still get it tested. If you’re wrong, I’ll apologize to you!”
The two people at the back took Guquan, which is ancient money.
One of them got a famous spring, and it was extremely precious. It was the Xiantong Xuanbao, one of the fifty treasures.
Xiantong Xuanbao is Tang Dynasty money. It was cast by Wang Tong, the money supervisor of Guiyang in the eleventh year of Xiantong. It was abolished immediately after it was found. It has almost no circulation and very few survive.
But Su Xiaofan could see this ancient spring using the repair system.
The ancient spring itself has been polished to the point where no trace of the Xiantong Mysterious Treasure can be seen. If anyone could find some clues, Su Xiaofan would classify it as a treasure.
Of course, if this ancient spring could get into Su Xiaofan's hands, he could repair it, and it would only need a repair value.
This ancient spring, which was completely damaged, gave Su Xiaofan an inspiration.
That is, in the future, you can find some ancient springs whose condition is not obvious, repair them, and then sell them.
There are too many copper coins in the antique market, and they are extremely worn. Su Xiaofan believes that as long as you have some patience and visit a few antique markets, you should be able to find good things.
"Teacher, we still hope you can take a look."
When an object bought for so much money was said to be fake, especially if it was said by a young man, those few people didn't believe it at all.
"Okay, let me take a look."
Jing Shizhen picked up the bronze pot, observed it for about seven or eight minutes, and then put it down.
Jing Shizhen did not make any comments, but took the other bronzes one by one.
"Actually, I also have intuition, but I still need to get started and observe it for a while."
Jing Shizhen took off her gloves and said, "These items are all fakes. If you don't believe it, go get it tested. If you make a mistake, I will take the blame!"
"This... this is impossible. I took the photo abroad."
The owner of the bronze pot looked in disbelief.
"Oh, this is what is called exporting to domestic sales."
Jing Shizhen sighed and said: "In the past few years, many domestic collectors went abroad to collect antiques, which also made some unscrupulous businessmen have their own ideas.
Those people send domestic counterfeit goods abroad, and then make up some stories or hold small auctions specifically for domestic collectors. This is actually a kind of pig-killing plate."
Jing Shizhen paused for a moment, looked at the man, and asked: "You went abroad to take pictures of collections, were you introduced by a friend? And it was a one-stop service, and even the money was transferred for you..."
"This, his grandson actually cheated on me!"
Apparently Jing Shizhen was right, the man's face turned red and he raised his hand to throw the bronze pot to the ground.
"Don't throw it. We collect antiques. It's common to get an eye shot and take medicine. Let's keep it as a lesson."
Jing Shizhen stopped the man's move and said, "This bronze pot is quite well made. It is considered a fine product among modern handicrafts. It's better to keep it."
"Thank you, thank you Teacher Jing for your guidance."
The man was convinced, but when he looked at the bronze pot again, his eyes no longer had the same fondness as before.
"Don't thank me, Xiao Su identified this. If you want to thank me, you should thank him."
Jing Shizhen couldn't help laughing after hearing this.
"Uncle Jing, I can only tell what is true and what is false, but I can't explain your reasoning."
Su Xiaofan said a few words of humility. He had already shown his ability today, so he could just give it up.
"Okay, do you guys have any objections?"
A staff member next to him said: "These teachers have worked hard all afternoon. If there is no objection, let these teachers go and take a rest first."
Those few people can question Su Xiaofan, but they all know Jing Shizhen's name and his conclusion is the final result, but no one dares to mess around anymore.
After all the Tibetan friends left, Jing Shizhen and others also got into the program crew's car.
It was already dinner time, so naturally everyone would be sent back after the meal.
"Teacher Su, you have finished these three days of work in one day."
At the wine table, the two experts also highly praised Su Xiaofan. Su Xiaofan's show of strength today was able to calm them down.
