Chapter 545 Finally Got the Real Thing

After all, Huo Chengdong is a man in his forties, and calmness has long been an essential part of his life.

Hearing Shi Lei's words, he knew that Shi Lei must have seen the clues. If he wanted to deceive, there was absolutely no way Shi Lei could be so full of words.

And now that it has been seen, Huo Chengdong has nothing to be surprised about. At most, he is curious about how Shi Lei saw that there was something wrong with this porcelain bottle.

"Oh? What do you mean by Mr. Shi?"

Shi Lei smiled, took off his gloves, and said with a smile: "Mr. Huo first said that two of the three porcelain bottles were imitated by you. But in fact, I am not sure whether the first one was made by you. It was forged by someone, but this second one was obviously not something that could be forged by Mr. Huo’s age. This porcelain vase is not only older than me, but also much older than Mr. Huo. Therefore, Mr. Huo has not told me the truth. .”

"This is a small thing, it's harmless. I was just trying to compare. It's really unfair for Mr. Shi to say that I have no intention of transferring."

Shi Lei laughed and said, "Mr. Huo should understand. In fact, I have already seen the problem with this porcelain bottle, otherwise I would not dare to speak out. The reason why I say that Mr. Huo still doesn't want to give the real thing to me is because of this third party." It's just a porcelain vase. I almost missed it. I have to admit that this is really unique and ingenious workmanship. If it weren't for the fact that this vase was simply made from a folk kiln, I might have been blinded. "

"Folk kiln?" Huo Chengdong was also stunned, and then laughed: "If a folk kiln makes such a low payment, it will be the crime of punishing the Nine Clan."

Shi Lei nodded and said: "If the whole bottle comes from a folk kiln, and it is in the Ming Dynasty, the only era in history when the Ten Tribes were punished, this is definitely the fault of the Nine Tribes. However, the bottom line is Really, it is definitely produced by the official kiln. The problem only lies in the bottle. I just don’t know whether Mr. Huo found someone to trap this bottle, or whether Mr. Huo saw it wrongly. I have to thank Mr. Huo just now If so, Mr. Huo reminded me twice, which made me realize that there was something wrong with this porcelain vase, otherwise, I might have taken this porcelain vase back as a genuine product and happily took it back."

Huo Chengdong completely understood that Shi Lei had really seen it. He smiled and said, "Mr. Shi has a good eye. But you said that I reminded you twice. How can you say that?"

Shi Lei said with a smile: "The first time was when Mr. Huo brought the bottle over. The bottle was still in the brocade box. Mr. Huo asked me if I thought the third one was authentic. If Mr. Huo didn't Lie to me, it is true that one of the three bottles must be genuine, then of course the third bottle is the genuine one, and Mr. Huo would not say such a thing. At that time, I felt a little strange, but it didn't matter. I didn’t pay too much attention to it. When I saw this bottle and almost thought it was the genuine article, Mr. Huo asked me again, with the same general idea, but Mr. Huo may not have noticed it himself. There was something in your words. There is a slight sense of frivolity. This is too inconsistent with Mr. Huo's temperament, and it can only show that Mr. Huo is secretly proud. I felt at the time that there must be a problem here, and Mr. Huo had already said one about the issue of these three porcelain vases. If I lied, then it would be less credible to say that there must be genuine items among the three. In the end, I saw the problem."

Huo Chengdong laughed loudly, clapped his hands and applauded Shi Lei.

"The afterlife is terrible, the afterlife is really terrible. I spent more than 100,000 US dollars to buy this porcelain vase more than ten years ago, and I have always regarded it as a treasure. Until I bought the authentic piece at Sotheby's auction two years ago, I thought it was It was perfect to make a pair, but after putting the two things together and making a judgment, this Li Gui could no longer hide. After studying for a long time, I finally discovered the thing on the bottom of the bottle. Secret. The body and bottom of this bottle are indeed not one piece, but are welded together using extremely high skills. This kind of skill is also breathtaking. It makes me feel like I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars back then. It doesn’t seem like a loss. However, Mr. Shi said that this bottle came from a private kiln? But I always thought it was another bottle from an official kiln. It just happened that one was missing the bottom and the other was only left with the bottom, so someone used a superb The craftsmanship combines them into one.”

Shi Lei said: "The grain of this bottle is still a little rough. If it is really from the same official kiln, it should be more delicate. Moreover, the blue and white brushstrokes on it don't seem to be blurred, they are always a little bit off. Of course, if this thing is complete, it would be excellent among private kilns, almost comparable to official kilns."

Huo Chengdong couldn't help but picked up the bottle and looked at it carefully.

After waiting for a while, Shi Lei said: "Mr. Huo, since I have seen that these three bottles are fakes, is it time to bring out the real ones?"

Huo Chengdong put down the bottle in his hand and said, "Okay, Mr. Shi, I'll go get that bottle out right away. But since Mr. Shi has such a good eye, he doesn't seem to value my collection. Is it because There are too many fakes in my collection? Why don't you ask Mr. Shi to help me check if there are any fakes here that I haven't noticed yet."

Shi Lei smiled lightly and said, "I just don't dare to look too much. I'm afraid that if I see Hunter Xinxing, I won't be able to walk anymore. It's not like Mr. Huo imagined. It's because I'm not interested in these things."

Huo Chengdong suddenly realized and laughed and said: "I see, it seems that I misunderstood Mr. Shi. Okay, I will go and buy the genuine Wanli blue and white. Mr. Shi, please wait a moment."

Shi Lei thought for a while and realized that there was still some time left on the appraisal card anyway, so he made good use of the remaining time in Huo Chengdong's collection. He really asked him to find a few problematic things, but I don't know if Huo Chengdong knew about them.

After Huo Chengdong came back, Shi Lei took a quick look and knew that the porcelain bottle this time was definitely authentic.

Of course he still had to put on some pretense, then put down the porcelain vase and exclaimed: "It's so ingenious that it's the pinnacle of the world."

Huo Chengdong smiled slightly, pointed at a few things picked out by Shi Lei and asked, "These...?"

Shi Lei said: "Personally, I think there are some problems with these things, but maybe I'm wrong."

Huo Chengdong understood that this was Shi Lei's self-effacing statement. Two of those items were undoubtedly fakes, which he had already confirmed himself. The remaining three items were unknown to him.

"These two items are undoubtedly fakes. They are both eye-catching things in the early years. As for the remaining three items, I still hope Mr. Shi can give some advice." After experiencing the incident of the three porcelain vases, Huo Chengdong already admired Shi Lei's eyesight. , and even the words became more polite.

Shi Lei waved his hand and said, "Mr. Huo is too polite to give advice. Let's discuss it."

Then, he picked up the first thing and said, "This is supposed to be an ancient sword from the Han Dynasty, but I always feel..."

Although this was something that could not be confirmed for the time being, Huo Chengdong felt that it made sense when Shi Lei explained it one by one. In fact, he didn't know that Shi Lei didn't understand these things at all, and what he said was ambiguous. He could only clearly confirm that these three items were of the wrong age and of wrong value.

The third update of the guarantee
