Chapter 166: True and False Double Arhat Statues 2

"Shopkeeper Zhu, this little friend is..." Seeing Zhu Ling invite Xiang Nanfei, Old Wang was a little unhappy. What does this kid who is less than 20 years old know? Pharaoh is still very polite.

"Old Wang, don't underestimate Brother Xiang. Brother Xiang is the one who tied Wu Lao Bibao this morning. I think you should have heard of it." Zhu Ling introduced to Lao Wang. Fly south.

"I've heard it, I've heard it, of course I've heard it, Mr. Xiang's reputation is now heard throughout the entire Antique Street. Now on this street, who doesn't know Mr. Xiang."

After knowing that Xiang Nanfei was the one who had a rivalry with Mr. Wu this morning, that kind of admiration from the bottom of his heart immediately emerged from Lao Wang's heart.

Mr. Wu is recognized as the number one collector in Yangcheng, and there are countless treasures in his home. Even the Palace Museum has come to Mr. Wu's home several times to ask Mr. Wu to present treasures. This honor is absolute.Now that Xiang Nanfei is tied with Wu Lao, it is conceivable that Xiang Nanfei's strength and ability to appraise treasures must be absolute.

"Mr. Xiang, please help me take a look at this "Double Arhat Statue". If it's genuine, I'll definitely give you and shopkeeper Zhu a big red envelope." Old Wang bowed, and then made a gesture to Xiang Nanfei There was a gesture of please.

After that, Xiang Nanfei and Zhu Ling admired the "Dual Arhat Statue" together.

Appreciating with the naked eye and playing with hands, Xiang Nanfei couldn't feel anything unusual about this "Double Arhat Statue", because Xiang Nanfei was just a "latecomer", and he didn't have the nature of Zhu Ling's connoisseur of treasures at all. intuitive.

What's more, Zhu Ling has been appraising antiques all his life. Basically, as soon as he gets his hands on something, he can immediately feel the authenticity. This kind of feeling can only be obtained by a real connoisseur who has been immersed in the antique industry for many years.

Although Xiang Nanfei didn't have Zhu Ling's innate intuition and Zhu Ling's long-term treasure appraising experience, Xiang Nanfei did have a super treasure appraising instrument.

So after that, Xiang Nanfei immediately appraised this "Double Arhat Statue" with a super appraiser.

Di...di...di..., this item is the work of Wang Yuanyi, a master counterfeiter in the Republic of China.

Due to the extremely high level of imitation of this "Double Arhat Statue", it should be regarded as the work of Wang Yuanyi at his peak.So in the end, Super Jianbaoyi gave a minimum price of 50 yuan.

"Fake? No way." As soon as the appraisal conclusion came out, Xiang Nanfei immediately frowned.What's more, even a fake can be sold for such a high price as 50 yuan. This master counterfeiter of the Republic of China is really not bad.

In order to get a thorough understanding of this master forger—Wang Yuanyi, Xiang Nanfei simply asked Super Jian Baoyi to pull out all the information about this master of forger.

Wang Yuanyi is very good at carving Shoushan stone. His imitation works were called "double masterpieces" together with Zhang Daqian's imitation paintings.

In the early days, Wang Yuanyi, like Zhang Daqian, imitated the typical works of ancient masters, and only later began to slowly create his own unique artistic style.

And this "Double Arhat Statue" imitating the method of a hundred carvings is Wang Yuanyi's pinnacle work. In fact, this "Double Arhat Statue" can achieve the effect of confusing the real one, but Wang Yuanyi still has a hand. Let future generations to discern.

The technique of carving this "Double Arhat Statue" is Wang Yuanyi's original "fog carving method".

However, although this "fog carving method" is superb, it still has flaws, and there is still a way to distinguish it. This method is to divide the statues and appreciate them one by one. The details of the loopholes in "Double Arhats" were completely found out.

"Brother, I already have a result, what about you?" After seeing through the imitation "Double Arhat Statue", Xiang Nanfei smiled, and then turned to Zhu Ling, who was still looking for "loopholes", asked.

"As a result, I have it too, but this... I can't say." If there is no loophole, it is difficult for Zhu Ling to announce the result.

"Brother Xiang, could it be that you see something?" Seeing Xiang Nanfei's composed expression, Zhu Ling immediately asked Xiang Nanfei.

"En~, I can see that this "Double Arhat Statue" was made by a master counterfeiter in the Republic of China—Wang Yuanyi." Xiang Nanfei directly said that this "Double Arhat Statue" was a fake come out.

"What? Is it an imitation? That's impossible." Old Wang was a little bit unconvinced by this result, because the carving technique of this "Double Arhat Statue" is exactly the same as that of the Ming Dynasty's Hundred Carvings, without the slightest deviation.

"Mr. Wang, this is indeed an imitation. The carving technique of this "Double Arhat Statue" is Wang Yuanyi's "Mist Sculpture Method"." "The whole body was wrapped up.

"Brother, Mr. Wang, you should all know the identification method of the "Mist Sculpture Method", which is to divide the areas and then appreciate them one by one. Now I will divide this "Double Arhat Statue", and then The three of us will take a closer look." After speaking, Xiang Nanfei pierced the rice paper in front of Luohan's eyes, and let Luohan's eyes appear alone.

Afterwards, Xiang Nanfei continued to Zhu Ling and Old Wang, "Look, the eyes of this arhat are not as bright as before, but rather dull."

"Look again, this arhat's beard is a bit uneven, doesn't it look a little cautious?"

"And the back of this earlobe..."

In the end, Xiang Nanfei pointed out a total of 7 or 8 loopholes in this "Double Arhat Statue". In fact, these loopholes were deliberately leaked by the master forger, Wang Yuanyi.

In addition to these tiny loopholes, the mouth of this "Double Arhat Statue" is also engraved with a "king" character. This "king" character is very slender. I don't know it at all, because I can't see it with the naked eye, and I have to use a magnifying glass to see it clearly.

Wang Yuanyi is really a talented sculptor. He is very confident in his carving method. He even thought out the details so well. It is impossible for anyone to guess. This Arhat's mouth must be inside, this really makes Xiang Nanfei a little admirable.

"Hey~~, it's really an imitation." Old Wang sighed a little disappointed.

"Old Wang, how much did you spend on this thing?" Zhu Ling knew Lao Wang very well, so he dared to ask.

"It's a whole million, hey~~, I thought it was a leak, but now it's all over, it's all lost." Lao Wang kept shaking his head while touching the "Double Arhat Statue".

"Hehe, I didn't lose everything. This Wang Yuanyi is very famous, but he is the same as Zhang Daqian, so this imitation of yours can still sell for a lot of money." Zhu Ling looked at Lao Wang slightly from the side. Reassured a bit.

"Ah~~, as famous as Zhang Daqian, then, then, how much is this thing worth?" Upon hearing that Wang Yuanyi was as famous as Zhang Daqian, Lao Wang immediately regained his energy.

"Well, it should be able to sell for around 40." After all, this "Double Arhat Statue" is an imitation, so the price given by Zhu Ling is a bit too conservative.

As soon as he heard that this imitation could still sell for 40 yuan, most of the previous sense of complete loss was removed from Lao Wang: "Hahaha, I didn't lose everything, I didn't lose everything, thank you Shopkeeper Zhu, thank you." After saying these words, Old Wang put away the statue of double arhats and left Jianbao Zhai.

"Brother Xiang, Zhu admires, admires, you can identify the imitation of Wang Yuanyi's peak, Zhu really admires it." After this incident, Xiang Nanfei's status in Zhu Ling's heart was restored. Suddenly improved a lot.

"Brother, you are exaggerating me too much. To be honest, I was just lucky. I just saw an article by Wang Yuanyi last night, which just introduced this "Mist Sculpture Method", so I was able to do it by chance. Hehehe." Xiang Nanfei scratched his head, then flicked at Zhu Ling.

"Brother Xiang, you are too modest. How could it be such a coincidence." Zhu Ling would not believe such a foolish explanation. This must be a cover-up that Xiang Nanfei didn't want to reveal.

After chatting for a few more words, Zhu Ling went to work, but Xiang Nanfei sat down quietly and entered the spiritual space.

"Xiang Xiaoling, what mission did I do just now? How did I get 2900 points, so much experience all of a sudden?" After entering the mental space, Xiang Nanfei immediately asked the system elf, What was just mentioned.

"Master, the task you completed before is a permanent task - [Return], as long as you return the antique to the museum, then you will be rewarded with corresponding experience points."

"Oh, it's like this, so if you sell it to a museum, does that count as a return?" Xiang Nanfei asked weakly to the system elf.

"Yes Master."

Afterwards, Xiang Nanfei learned about the reward details of the [Return] mission with the system elves.In other words, 1000 yuan of antiques can be exchanged for a little experience value. To put it bluntly, it is to exchange antiques for experience points.

This [return] task, Xiang Nanfei still thinks that he can do a lot of it, one of which is to repay the country, this kind of nonsense.The second is that the speed of getting experience points is extremely fast, which allows Xiang Nanfei to draw the [Nine Suns Divine Art] on the big wheel as soon as possible.

So in the end, Xiang Nanfei decided to spend some time "picking up leaks".Then donate the missed antiques to the museum to gain experience points.

However, when Xiang Nanfei thought of donating those precious antiques to the "black-hearted museum", Xiang Nanfei felt very upset.
