Chapter 4 True in False
The boss looked at Tang Feng and handed him the book in his hand.
In troubled times, grain storage and collection in prosperous times, as the public's collection heats up, a set of conventional rules gradually formed. According to the industry, you cannot tell the mystery whether you buy or not, unless you are helping others, even if that is the case, you can only say it quietly. The original meaning of this "not easy to say" is not to say that this thing is fake, but to be inaccurate. Later, some experts were afraid of offending people, and the fake ones were also called "not easy to say".
The Tang family’s appraisal technique is not to be mentioned, and the market can be checked on professional websites, but the understanding of rules is out of line with the times. This thing is like a pop song, one after another. The reason why Tang Feng and his old man asked Tang Feng to go to Zhenbaoxuan first was to let Tang Feng learn modern rules with Huang Taoluo, and then go out to shop for antiques. As a result, Tang Feng came out halfway and jokes were inevitable.
Tang Feng was watching "The History of the National People" and he gently patted his shoulder. The patting was different from grabbing. Tang Feng turned around and found that it was Liu Shunan.
Liu Shunan smiled and said, "At first, I thought I had admitted my mistake. It turned out to be Brother Tang."
Although he didn't have much contact with Liu Shunan, Tang Feng had a good impression of him. He stretched out one hand and said, "Brother Liu, hello, what a coincidence, hello?"
Liu Shunan took action to hold on to him and said, "It's not a coincidence, my jewelry store is there." It turned out that Liu Shunan's jewelry business was here. At this time, he saw the "National History Tongdian" in Tang Feng's hand. He whispered in Tang Feng's ear: "Can you still like this thing? Although I don't understand, this must be fake."
The fake "National History General Dian" is too obvious, and anyone who knows a little knowledge of it. Bao Guoxian, the Minister of Rites of the Southern Song Dynasty, was also a historical figure. The "Baichuan Shuzhi" he wrote is recorded in the "Erquan Poems" written by him, but he has never written the "National History General Dian".
There are many methods of making fake books, which are roughly divided into fake titles, and the authors use inferior books as good ones; add and delete books and engrave books and plaques, and remove prefaces and postscripts; dye paper to make new ones to fill the ancients. This book "National History" is the representative work of the first two. It adds the word "National History" written by Du You of the Tang Dynasty and changes it to "National History". Originally, the cover of "Tongdian" did not sign the author's name, so the counterfeiter simply pulled the original and pulled Bao Guoxian up. Of course, the counterfeiter cannot just change the cover, and the counterfeiter also deleted and modified the preface. In order to cover up the traces of the cuts, the modified places were stamped with "Nanjing Hanlin Academy Seal" and "Secretary Ji Cangwei".
Tang Feng smiled when he heard this and said in a low voice: "Thank you for your reminder, but this book has other mystery." He asked the shop owner, "Boss, how did you sell this?"
The shop owner looked at Tang Feng, then looked at Liu Shunan, and said in embarrassment: "Boss Liu, this is." Of course, the shop owner knew that this was fake. Some people asked it, which is a good thing, but the rabbit did not eat grass by the nest. This person knew Liu Shunan, so he was so arrogant that he could not get over the face.
Liu Shunan smiled and said, "He just puts it at home for decoration, you can do it." Liu Shunan's words are very skillful. People know that this is fake, and they just put it at home for bluffing people. Don't make any offers.
The shop owner said with a smile on his face: "Since he is Boss Liu's friend, I won't charge you a high price, just hang it." The boss is also a thief. He didn't say it clearly, one hang it is an old jargon. In ancient times, one hang it was made for one thousand yuan. The one in later generations refers to one thousand yuan, and now it is 1,000 yuan.
A fake book "The History of the National People's Republic" is a bit expensive, but Tang Feng didn't care about this, so he said readily: "Then let's just hang on." He didn't understand the new rules, but he still knew the old rules. Tang Feng took out a thousand dollars from his bag and gave it to the owner of the shop.
He would pick up a vacancy with a Buddha statue on his back, and the Buddhist beads would come to bless him. Tang Feng took the book with a calm expression and put it in his bag, but he felt ecstatic inside.
Liu Shunan, who was full of doubts, certainly didn't want Tang Feng to leave like this. He said, "Since Brother Tang is here, why not sit in the small shop, how about it?"
Tang Feng nodded and said, "That's to bother."
Liu Shunan said that he opened a "store", but in fact it was a company, with more than ten employees. The hall was filled with all kinds of decorations, root carvings, rockery, strange stones, etc. These are not antiques, but modern imitation decorations. This guy is really smart. He will do the present when others play with ancients. After all, there are so many people who can collect them, but there are very few people who can put on antiques at home. Making some imitations can also improve taste.
In the office, Liu Shunan took out a set of exquisite purple clay teapots. He said while he arranged the show: "Brother Tang, don't be polite, you are a distinguished guest who can't even invite you."
"Brother Liu has said this." After the two of them were kind, Liu Shunan picked up the purple clay pot and poured a cup of hot tea, and pushed the plate containing the purple clay towards Tang Feng.
If you can't drink tea in a purple clay pot, you have to talk about it. It's about leisure and leisure. Although Tang Feng doesn't understand the tea ceremony, he still picked up the cup and tasted it casually. After that, he nodded and said, "Well, good tea." What's so good? Tang Feng doesn't understand this at all, he just feels it's very bitter.
"Haha, this is the Tieguanyin in our hometown." Liu Shunan said: "The second pot tastes better."
Tang Feng asked: "Brother Liu is from Fujian?"
"Yes." Liu Shunan nodded. He didn't want to get too far from Tang Feng. He just wanted to know what the mystery with another mystery was. He asked Tang Feng softly: "Brother Tang just said there was another mystery. Can you tell me one or two?"
"Tongdian" is the first and most accomplished history of rules and regulations in my country. Its author is Du You of the Tang Dynasty, the prime minister of Du You in the middle of the Tang Dynasty, and a famous historian. "Tongdian" is of high academic value, but not valuable. Because it is too famous, there are many reprinted versions in various dynasties and dynasties, and it will be widely circulated. If it appears in the true appearance of the original book, it will not be very attractive to the collectors and the price will not be high. Therefore, the faker faked "Tongdian" into "Tongdian of the National History".
Tang Feng laughed and said slowly: "The key issue lies in these two book seals. Brother Liu might as well think about why the counterfeiters did not leave the book seals of other governments and others, but they were left from Nanjing Hanlin Academy and Ji Cangwei. You should know that these two book seals are well-known, especially "Secretary Ji Cangwei", which is verified."
"What do you mean," Liu Shunan thought about it and said suddenly: "Because there is really such a book!"
