Appreciation of treasures

Chapter 757 Casting Method
I'm sorry for not pretending to be handsome!
He said loudly: "Just like what Mr. Feng Chengru said just now, he was right nine points, but revealed a key point."

Saying that, Zhao Gang glanced at Feng Chengru.

The latter's complexion has turned into a liver color, and there is unwillingness and even resentment in his eyes.

Is my limelight being robbed by Chen Xiaojun?

And what else did you say, you are right nine points, fart!

"Hehe, it seems that Mr. Zhao is very sure. I don't think my analysis is not in place. The difference between me and you is that I can't understand Tocharian characters."

"I don't think it has anything to do with appreciation."

Feng Chengru said arrogantly. He looked at Zhao Gang provocatively, waiting for his answer.

"If you don't know Tochara, as you said, you are directly wrong."

Zhao Gang really wanted to roll his eyes, what he said was the truth, why would there always be people who couldn't accept it.

"I……"

Feng Chengru choked for a moment, feeling his face burning.

What he said just now seemed to be a little slap in the face.

"Cheng Ru, don't be angry, let's ignore him, he must have no ability to talk nonsense, if you want me to say such a person, he must be single!"

Li Rouzhen glanced at Zhao Gang unhappily, hugged Feng Chengru with both hands, and comforted him.

Zhao Gang asked with a question mark, did the single dog eat your rice?

"Yes! I want to see what you are capable of!"

Feng Chengru calmed down, and the arrogance on his face did not restrain in the slightest.

Ruan Jing and Zhong Beishan watched silently.

"I'm a little arrogant. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I won't admit it."

Ruan Jing shook his head, he prefers Zhao Gang who is a bit dull, because it is easier to control.

"It doesn't matter what he is, if he joins the scientific expedition team, he has to be obedient."

Zhong Beishan didn't care, picked up the teacup, and drank it like a cow.

He was dying of thirst after talking so much.

At this moment, Zhao Gang finally spoke again.

"This thing is indeed similar to the dragon-patterned dish-shaped ornament. It seems to have the same purpose, the difference is that it is older."

"But what if this is Kucha's original casting technology?"

Zhao Gang walked to the bronze knife, stretched out his finger and tapped lightly, making a pleasant sound.

"The ancient country of Kucha is one of the ancient countries that emerged on the Silk Road. As one of the first countries established by the Tocharians, it has a very long history, and it is in the same era as the Shang and Zhou Dynasties."

"Similarly, it has existed for a very long time like Jialan Country..."

"What on earth do you want to say? Don't give me some convoluted talk to delay time."

Feng Chengru said unhappily, all he wanted to hear was the reason why he missed one place.

Zhong Beishan frowned, and Ruan Jing took a sip from his teacup expressionlessly.

There was no reaction from the two, but others were already whispering and leaving.

No one expected that the final champion would be produced by the two youngest connoisseurs, and the two were facing each other. It seemed that they couldn't work together.

"I'm appreciating, are you a fool?"

Zhao Gang retorted unceremoniously.

Appreciation Appreciation means laying out the background completely, without making it clear who knows what you are talking about.

Feng Chengru was choked up again, and his face turned red and white with anger.

"Listen, this thing is not cast using the method of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States on the basis of the Shang Dynasty, but the ancient method of the ancient country of Kucha."

Zhao Gang didn't continue talking, but spread his palms flat and pointed at Feng Chengru.

"Looking at how confident you are, I don't need to tell you that you also know the origins and ancient casting methods of the ancient country of Kucha, right? You must also be able to distinguish the difference between the Spring and Autumn and Warring States casting methods and the Kucha casting method, right?"

"I I I..."

Feng Chengru stuttered. He was just impatient. He never thought that Chen Xiaojun would directly throw the blame on him.

Although he knew the casting method of the Spring and Autumn Period, but he didn't know the casting method of the ancient country of Kucha, so he fell silent for a moment.

"You, you, you, don't you like to talk? I'll give you a chance to perform!"

Zhao Gang was lazily crossing his arms, and that look of needing a beating made many people's teeth itch.

Well, there is nothing to do with him.

Li Jingzhai couldn't help but chuckle, "Brother, the appraiser you invited is very interesting."

"I think so."

Li Qiubai's originally irritable mood improved. He glanced at Li Jiaming, whose face had turned black to coal.

At this time, he was looking at Fang Jiu with hatred. The one he had spent so much hard work to invite was not as good as two children.

At the same time, Li Jiaming looked at Zhao Gang with some other meanings in his eyes.

Li Qiubai noticed the look in his elder brother's eyes, his heart tightened, he took out his mobile phone without hesitation, and swiped 1000 million on Zhao Gang's mobile phone again.

The same mistake must never be made a second time, if Li Jiaming poached him away this time, there would be no place to cry.

"Okay, Xiaoyou Zhao, please don't joke around, and everyone listens patiently to Xiaoyou Zhao."

Ruan Jing came out to smooth things over, relieved Feng Chengru's embarrassment, and at the same time warned him.

If you don't know, just shut up.

Talking to Ruan Jing, Zhao Gang restrained a lot, nodded and continued.

"The forging method used in the Spring and Autumn Period was also a method widely circulated in the ancient Chinese country during that period. It followed the 'block method' of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties."

The so-called block paradigm, in simple terms, is to use the model for perfusion.

The model of the utensil is made first, also known as the model or mother model.

The outer model should be divided into several pieces so that it can be taken off from the mold.

Then fit the inner and outer molds together, and finally pour the melted copper liquid into the gap, and the cast utensils can be obtained after the copper liquid cools down.

Zhao Gang gave a complete introduction, and when it came to antiques, his expression was extraordinarily serious.

Looking at Ruan Jing and Zhong Beishan who he introduced, there were expressions of satisfaction on their faces.

What they need is a truly versatile genius. Although Zhao Gang is young and perhaps inexperienced, his knowledge is broad enough.

Almost at the same time, Ruan Jing and Zhong Beishan had already made a decision in their hearts.

After talking about the casting method of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods, Zhao Gang said again.

"As for the ancient country of Kucha, the long-lost superimposed forging method was used, which is somewhat similar to the modern casting method, but it has lost a characteristic of Kucha."

"It's the ratio of tin to copper in the ancient country of Kucha. Modern products are naturally more scientific and have precise proportions. But the ancient country of Kucha was not so developed, and its castings are difficult to have modern quality."

"That's why such a knife was formed, can you hear it clearly?"

As Zhao Gang said, he flicked the bronze knife again. This time, it was still a clear and pleasant sound, but it had a dull echo.

Although the sound was not loud, it was particularly obvious in the quiet crowd, and it easily reached everyone's ears.
