antique appraiser

Qu Jingshui looked at Wen Liyan from a distance. In the eyes of others, Wen Liyan was still so calm, as if he was appraising other objects. He was just judging the value and origin of the things in his hand. He will raise his head and speak in a moment.

Wen Liyan's appraisal experience for so long has made people who have seen his appraisal method think so with certainty.

However, Qu Jingshui could see Wen Liyan's nervousness at this time.On the surface, Wen Liyan didn't show any extra expression, but Qu Jingshui didn't have any reason, she just knew that Wen Liyan was nervous now.

The "Romance of the West Chamber" in his hand is weird!

Qu Jingshui understood Wen Liyan's ability, and his knowledge in antiques was much better than many people in the industry. An object that could make Wen Liyan have such an attitude must be unusual.And I also knew that if the ancient book in Wen Liyan's hand was genuine, he must have opened his mouth to come here, and only when the book was a fake would he be silent for so long.Moreover, although the book was fake, Wen Liyan really couldn't find any problems for a while!

There is often a kind of "intuition" in the antique world. After seeing a lot of things, they will naturally have an intuition about the authenticity and value of the thing. The appraiser can see an object immediately. Judging its authenticity and value through intuition, but these appraisers really couldn't tell the reason why.Compared to now, Wen Liyan intuitively knew that this thing should be a fake, but he couldn't find out what was wrong through observation, right? Looking at Wen Liyan with a frown, Qu Jingshui was a little worried, and then moved his eyes to Su Ming.This is Su Ming's program, so Su Ming can come forward to help Wen Liyan out of the siege. Qu Jingshui has already thought of a suitable excuse, for example, one person can only identify one object—even if this is not what "Rare Gathering" said in advance. However, before this, perhaps by coincidence, no one really took out several things for appraisal, and they all appraised things one by one.

However, Su Ming didn't move, maybe he didn't think there was anything wrong with Wen Liyan?Just like this, Qu Jingshui's mood became bad.

Is this watching the fun?When did his people turn into a village for these troublemakers?

Qu Jingshui still maintained a calm expression, but the gloomy expression in his eyes was deposited, and no one saw it.

At this time, almost everyone was waiting for Wen Liyan's identification with great interest, including other experts who were still busy with their work, and glanced over from time to time, quite curious.

Only Wen Liyan knew that he was constantly complaining in his heart. The more nervous he became, the more anxious he became. He knew that there must be something wrong with this book, but he couldn't find this key point in a short while.

His eyes fell on "The Romance of the West Chamber", flipping through it repeatedly.

Every detail I have mentioned has no flaws in this book. If it is a lie, it is obvious that it is a bit by bit according to what I said.Damn it!

Wen Liyan felt very anxious. He didn't dare to think about what would happen if he failed. This feeling was like a top student who found out that he was confused about the questions on the test paper one day during the exam. At this time, he would not Have the courage to think about how to explain to parents and teachers that you failed the exam, and how to face the colored eyes of other students.Compared with this example, Wen Liyan's situation is probably more dangerous. It's okay to pass the exam or something, and it's not the college entrance examination that can almost determine his life. However, if Wen Liyan fails the appraisal now, it will directly affect him. A foothold in this future society.So far, Wen Liyan, the Ancient Characters Research Society and other forces are in a state of hostility. If Wen Liyan loses this time, those guys will definitely not let Wen Liyan go easily. There is always a shortage of people who make trouble .Under such circumstances, I am afraid that in the end, only Qu Jingshui will give Wen Liyan limited protection.After all, Wen Liyan's time in the antique world is too short. If he is given a few more years, his authority will definitely be established in the antique world. At that time, no research society will be able to shake his position!As for a master-level appraiser, even if he said that his appraisal was based on intuition, who would dare to question it?

"Mr. Wen?" The owner of the object called out. It seemed that Wen Liyan seemed agitated because he had been thinking longer than the previous quick identification, but Wen Liyan could hear the joke in the man's words.

"Ah..." Wen Liyan uttered a sound subconsciously as if awakened from a start, and then said, "I'm a little fascinated by it. After all, such an imitation can almost be confused with the real one, and sometimes it's even more difficult to find than the real one."

There was a moment of silence and a moment of hustle and bustle, almost everyone looked at Wen Liyan in surprise, imitation?Is that book a fake?

People with a little bit of knowledge in this area discussed in low voices, expressing their own opinions.

"Impossible! How could that book be a counterfeit? I saw Mr. Wen's appraisal just now, and the details mentioned before are all correct!"

"How do you know? Mr. Wen is an expert in appraising this. Maybe he has other unique skills. What is wrong?"

Only Wen Liyan knew that he was daring to say this now.Obviously he knew that this thing was wrong, but he really didn't find out what was wrong until now, but the other party had already spoken, so it was impossible for him not to respond, so he could only say so first.Maybe there is still a kind of hope in his heart, which can scare the person who brought this book and make him quit?

The man's face darkened at first, and he wondered whether Wen Liyan had really found a loophole?But I also feel that this book was completed by all the counterfeiters in the industry, so why is there a problem?After calming down, I said in a leisurely manner, "Mr. Wen, did you read it wrong? After I got this ancient book, I checked it one by one according to the identification methods you mentioned. Is there any problem?"

"There is more than one method of appraisal. There are so many appraisal methods in this world. It is impossible for me to summarize all the skills with just a few appraisal methods." Clear the false and the real.

"Mr. Wen, can you let me have a look at this book?" The expert next to Wen Liyan finally couldn't bear it anymore. He had glanced at the book before and thought it should be an ancient book, but Wen Liyan said it was an imitation book. Taste?Appraisals are always particularly interested in such objects, and want to improve their abilities through such objects.

"You have to ask this person, after all, he is the owner." Wen Liyan smiled, looking at the troublemaker.

"Experts, take a look at what you want. I originally wanted the experts to give me palms." The man just laughed, and only he knew it. Because of Wen Liyan's calm performance, he himself became uneasy.

As soon as this book was read by other experts, Wen Liyan won another period of time to think about where the disobedience and feeling he felt came from.This can be considered quick-witted.

Book.Books...books, ordinary books should be like this. That book is no different from ordinary books. From the perspective of antiques, there is no problem with the aging degree of the paper and the printing method?

After thinking hard, Wen Liyan felt more and more suspense in his heart.

Time passed quickly, and Wen Liyan had less and less time to think, but he still didn't think of the key to solving the problem.

After several experts over there had circulated the "Romance of the West Chamber", Wu Ting said, "Mr. Wen, do you really think this book is a fake?"

Wen Liyan nodded, but complained in his heart that Wu Ting was deliberately looking for trouble for him. At this time, Wu Ting still wanted to tear down the stage and say that he didn't think so?Although Wen Liyan also understands that most other experts will not agree with his views, but the current situation is that he is being targeted by others, so why should he be so serious, his own people should protect and defend, right?But he responded calmly: "Yes, this book is indeed a counterfeit."

"But, no matter how I looked, I didn't find any flaws?" The expert who asked for the book before couldn't wait to ask.

"This..." There is no way to delay any longer!Wen Liyan's eyes slipped, and he glanced at his cuffs. This dress was the one he brought over when he traveled through time. He had worn it for two years, and he never lost it because he got used to it. The cuffs of this shirt even There are tiny rough edges, but you can't see it unless you look closely.

In an instant, there was a flash of inspiration.

He finally knew where the flaw in this book was!

At the moment when Wen Liyan was secretly happy, Qu Jingshui, who was staring at Wen Liyan closely, also felt relieved. If he read correctly, Wen Liyan had already discovered the key to the problem, so he didn't have to worry about it.

Wen Liyan took the book handed over by the expert, raised it with his right hand, and signaled to everyone.

"Everyone, read this book. According to the identification methods I told you in the first episode of "The Gathering of Treasures", in fact, this book does not have any flaws." Wen Liyan's voice was unhurried, with a calm tone. It feels like when he started talking, the person who brought the things started to feel uneasy. He also saw Wen Liyan's appraisal. Once Wen Liyan started talking like this, and started to describe the origin and value of the objects, the matter was already settled Before, he thought it was Wen Liyan who was stubborn, but he didn't find any flaws in this book at all, but now Wen Liyan can really find the problem?

"However, one of the most important skills in identifying this industry is to never be bound by your thinking and form a fixed pattern. Patina, luster, material, taste, etc. are very important factors for identification, but we are more Something man-made cannot be ignored."

"For example, if a book, especially an ancient book, has been handed down to our time, someone must have read it. Especially the books unearthed from various tribes. During the catastrophe, all kinds of books are extremely scarce, and there is no ancient culture. In the period of real decline, there are many people who read books, and each book will be read repeatedly. What characteristics should a book that has been read have? Click on the side of the book, "Because people's fingers rub against this part, the paper here will have rough edges and curled edges. Even if there are few people flipping through it, this situation is not obvious, but it is not like this book. The sides are clean, as if it had just been printed and hadn't been read."

Following Wen Liyan's words, people's eyes fell on the side of the page of "The Romance of the West Chamber". They squinted their eyes to see the smooth side, and only a few people who were very close could see the smooth side. .

It's very simple. After this book is produced, which of these people involved in the calculation of Wen Liyan will read this book?At most, they would open one or two pages to check the effect of the production. After all, the content inside had been checked countless times before the fraud.

Naturally, this book will not have the slightly rough edges on the side of the genuine "Romance of the West Chamber".

The invisible person at the back asked the person in front if he had seen the book, and after getting an affirmative answer, he was amazed at Wen Liyan's meticulous identification. He could even judge the authenticity of a book through the rough edges on the side of the page. True or false, this skill is really amazing!

And several other experts also suddenly realized that it was so, and they looked at Wen Liyan with even more admiration.

Qu Jingshui smiled, her brows stretched, and it was rare that she felt a little sunny.

In front of Wen Liyan, the person who took out the book also stared at Wen Liyan with wide eyes in shock. They had made the book so precise, who knew that the boat would capsize in the gutter!Wen Liyan actually solved the plan they had designed for so long with a flipping that would cause rough edges on the pages!

At this moment, he was not displeased with Wen Liyan's bad guy's business in his heart. Instead, he was full of admiration. An appraiser who can do this level of appraisal is worthy of their admiration!If they can invite an appraiser like Wen Liyan, I am afraid that the things produced will not be the kind of goods on the stalls in the antique market, but put them in the auction, and no one will be able to see through them. Everyone will regard them as peerless treasures. Grab something!

He even thought about whether it was possible for Wen Liyan to join the gang?Even if the industry chain of counterfeiting ancient books has been completely destroyed, Wen Liyan's performance at this time proves that he should not be much worse in other industries. If there is Wen Liyan, they may be able to take the route of treasures and work slowly. Fine work, although the quantity is not large, can really sell for an astonishingly high price.

However, after thinking about it this way, he immediately understood how unrealistic his thoughts were.Who is Wen Liyan?A genius who has rapidly risen to become a top second-rate appraiser, and this speed can obviously be improved. After today's wonderful appraisal, Wen Liyan should be considered a first-rate appraiser.Even being a top appraiser is definitely not a dream for Wen Liyan, as long as he wants to, he can get it.Why did he take the risk to help himself and others to cheat?A top appraiser can earn as much money as he and others can earn by cheating an absolutely precious treasure with just a few words.

Moreover, there is Qu Jingshui behind Wen Liyan.

Qu Jingshui will let one of his top appraisers commit suicide to help others cheat?Self-defeating?

If it was someone like Mo Jing, maybe Qu Jingshui would let it go, but if it was Wen Liyan, Qu Jingshui would definitely not sit idly by.

The man secretly sighed.

Although he failed to embarrass Wen Liyan, but at this point, no one can say that he did not do a good job, and he can be regarded as a good job.

"Is it an imitation?" He put on a lonely look and forced himself to speak hard, "It's a good thing this book was picked up by mistake, otherwise it would be a big loss!"

Wen Liyan also shook his head cooperatively, and handed him the book, "That's how it is in the antique industry. Eyesight needs to be practiced slowly. Let's think of it as gaining wisdom through a pitfall." The person offended him severely, and since the fairy had an attitude of making peace with the other party, Wen Liyan naturally softened his posture.

"Thank you, Master Wen." The man put away his things, bowed, and finally flattered him.From Mr. to Master, this is to promote Wen Liyan's status.

Wen Liyan waved his hand, ignoring this person to leave, and moved his eyes to the next person to be appraised.
