My system is not decent

Chapter 359 I really can't bear it! (seeking subscription)

Chen Wenzhe walked into the antique city shaking his head. When he passed by the stalls outside, he didn't forget to take a few glances. What if he saw something good?

It turned out that the antique city was full of fakes and national treasures. At first, he was already numb, but after several times of leaking, he knew that accidents could happen at any time.

"Huh?" While walking, Chen Wenzhe saw a strange thing, mainly the rust of that thing, it was so natural.

Looking around, this is an antique city, how come you can often see good things in this kind of place?

Chen Wenzhe couldn't believe it, although that thing was rather strange, but looking at the rust color, it actually has a history of thousands of years?

In addition, Chen Wenzhe couldn't tell the truth from the fake just by looking at it, but he really understood the green rust.

This point has a significant effect on the identification of ancient coins, such as Daqi Tongbao, and the identification of bronzes, such as the Yueyu bronzes in his hand.

This market has become different, good things have increased, and it is no longer all fake!

Chen Wenzhe understood a little bit, this is probably the credit of the market management.

The current antique city market has obviously been rectified, or in other words, this time the street stall market has been opened, and the management has made regulations to prevent fraud.

When entering the market, there were slogans hanging on two trees, and the slogan was very simple, only four words: Fraud is illegal!

Who doesn't know that fraud is illegal?The main thing is how to define fraud.

Now you don’t need to explain, the official explanation is coming, it’s fraud to turn modern imitations into antiques and sell them at high prices.

Therefore, now the antique shops, as well as the antique stalls outside, can no longer fool people. If you still use the original storytelling method, it will be evidence of fraud.

Chen Wenzhe took a closer look at the stalls of this store, and found that they were selling old things, but most of them were old porcelain bowls, old flower pots and so on.

Although they look old, this kind of old is just looking old, because they are only produced for seven to eighty years at most.

Except for those old porcelains, there are some odds and ends, among them is the utensil covered with copper and green.

The thing looked like pliers, without the protection of the outer skin, and the patina all over the body indicated that it was probably a copper ware.

Look at the color again, blue, it must be bronze.

And when did the bronzes disappear?It seems like after the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

Looking at this thing again, the degree of aging is very high, and it looks quite old.

Besides, its production process seems to be very simple, at least it is not a modern machine process.

"Boss, how do you sell the vise?" Chen Wenzhe stopped and went straight to the point.

"This thing is old, and the price is not cheap."

The boss looked up at Chen Wenzhe and found that he didn't know him, so he wanted a high price.

Now you can't just take out one thing and say it is Cixi's urinal. This is also a fraud, and you need to bear legal responsibility.

Otherwise, the boss should have started fooling around at this time.

The current regulations in the market restrict the performance of these bosses, which must make them feel a little inferior.

"There are a lot of old things, and the stone slabs we are stepping on are even older, but no one is willing to pay a high price for them!"

"Haha, that's quite a word, young man, this is a real antique, just look at the rust."

The boss is a middle-aged man in his 50s and [-]s. He doesn't have much dislike for Chen Wenzhe's words, but he is definitely not easy to deal with.

"I can see that this is an old thing, but this is a vise, even if it is old, can it be 100 years old?"

After Chen Wenzhe said this, the boss fell silent.

"How much can I get? I just wanted to buy it and study it because I saw that the rust was doing well."

The boss hesitated for a while, and then said: "If you really want it, you can give it three hundred, and you can't do less."

"It's too high!" As he said, Chen Wenzhe picked up the pliers and examined them carefully.

This time, he didn't have the ability to use Sui Hou's Pearl, after all, it was just a pair of pliers worth a few hundred yuan, and the workmanship seemed simple compared to the price.

The craftsmanship is purely handcrafted, but the craftsmanship of this bronze ware is really nothing.

However, the most obvious of these should be riveting.

Riveting is a mechanical vocabulary. It uses rivets to connect two or more workpieces. For example, the holes where sneakers wear shoelaces are made of hollow rivets.

The heads of the pliers are connected using this technique.

Maybe the boss couldn't tell the age of the vise from the copper rust, but Chen Wenzhe knew very well that such a rich green rust would not be formed without a thousand years.

If it is old-fashioned, even with Chen Wenzhe's unique skill - red spot and green embroidery technique, it is difficult to achieve this kind of sincerity, especially the green nature, which he probably cannot do.

With this sense of age and riveting technology, what period is this?

Chen Wenzhe pondered for a while, and thought of the time when this craft first appeared.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the biggest feature of bronze craftsmanship was the emergence of new production techniques at that time, especially the appearance of the lost wax method in the middle and late Spring and Autumn Period, which brought bronze art to a new realm.

At that time, a batch of novel and elegant utensils appeared, with exquisite workmanship, exquisite and translucent, magnificent and dignified, and extremely elegant and brilliant.

During that period, the arrival of various crafts such as copper casting, inlaying, gilding, engraving, forging, riveting, etc., made the bronze handicrafts of this period diverse, with various types, beautiful shapes and patterns. The pattern is refurbished, and the artistic style is rich and colorful.

This stage is the end of the Bronze Age. The bronze wares in this stage are no longer sacred objects high above, but they have begun to step down from the altar and move towards the social class.

Therefore, to a certain extent, it gave birth to the industrial production in this period.

The previous complicated and slow work can no longer meet the needs of the society, so the manufacturing process must undergo fundamental changes.

It was also at this stage that many practical tools appeared, such as the pliers in Chen Wenzhe's hand, which should have appeared during that period.

If Chen Wenzhe hadn't been knowledgeable about the vise in the Warring States Period, I wouldn't believe it!

Rubbing the vise, through the rich green rust, he also felt the mountain-shaped pattern, which is also a typical pattern of the Warring States Period.

And the use of mountain-shaped patterns here seems to be for anti-slip?

"How is it? Are you optimistic?" Just as Chen Wenzhe was thinking, the boss asked.

Looking at the smiling boss, Chen Wenzhe was a little helpless, maybe because the price was not high, he was actually careless.

"Okay, considering how old it is, it's a very peculiar vise, three hundred!"

Since the boss saw that he liked it, Chen Wenzhe didn't bargain!

It's really: how can I bear it!
