When Cai Yi said this, everyone in the room became interested. Even Wang Jiazan and Wang Ma, who had just finished packing the dishes, sat down and prepared to listen to the story of this ancient porcelain expert.

"I remember it was in 1994. In the autumn of that year, I received an invitation letter, which was sent by Nanbo, who invited me to attend an ancient porcelain exchange meeting. The participants were all famous porcelain experts in China. At that time, I had just obtained the title of associate research librarian, so I was lucky enough to receive an invitation letter."

As a college student who studied in Jinling for four years, Yang Jing certainly knew where Cai Yi mentioned Nanbo, which is the Jinling Museum, one of the three major museums in China. This museum is also known as Nanbo or Nanyuan.

"This kind of highly professional internal exchange meeting is actually a place for mutual learning. Therefore, there will be many ancient porcelains and even high-quality imitations at the exchange meeting. These are all those people who take out their own collections for the exchange meeting. It is precisely the coexistence of these fine products and fakes that have opened our eyes."

"Among them, a Qianlong tea powder glaze Ruyi ear halberd olive bottle attracted the attention of almost everyone present. The tea powder glaze Ruyi ear halberd olive bottle is the same as today's bottle. From that aspect, it looks like a real product with a wide open door, but the bottom of the bottle makes everyone very sad, because the bottom of the bottle is actually a six-character and three-line regular script model, and the last character is also in simplified Chinese..."

Yang Jing was also shocked when he heard this. He had heard of the Qianlong tea powder glaze Ruyi ear halberd olive bottle mentioned by Cai Yi. Moreover, Yang Jing still remembers that such a bottle seemed to appear at the 2015 spring auction of Jiade. It seemed that it had a high price of nearly 13 million national coins. It was an extremely rare fine tea powder glaze.

Cai Yi continued: "This bottle was provided by the late porcelain master Mr. Shi Shuqing. Mr. Shi Shuqing was still alive at that time and attended the exchange meeting. Mr. Shi also taught us a lesson as a lecturer."

"The bottle that Mr. Shi took out made everyone in the audience confused. Of course, several porcelain masters thought of the key, but none of these masters gave the answer, but let us young people think about it themselves."

"The bottle caused considerable controversy at that exchange meeting. The mother said that the mother was right and the mother said that the mother was right, and no one could do anything to anyone. He insisted that the bottle was fake, and there was no other evidence except the bottom of the bottle, and the bottom of the bottle could not be found. Similarly, he insisted that the bottle was genuine, but he could not explain why the simplified Chinese characters and the color of the bottle were. In the end, Mr. Shi came forward to make the answer public."

After a pause, Cai Yi picked up the teacup on the coffee table, took a sip of water before continuing: "Mr. Shi said that this bottle was entrusted by an old friend named Wu Tianming in the turbulent era. According to Mr. Shi, although his old friend was not famous, he had extremely exquisite skills in the identification of ancient porcelain and restoration of ancient porcelain. He was a real ancient porcelain master hidden among the people. Unfortunately, his old friend was knocked down in the turbulent era because of the bad ingredients and eventually committed suicide. Before committing suicide, he entrusted the bottle to Mr. Shi for custody, and at the same time told Mr. Shi that he had four similar bottles, but he disappeared from his home in a search, and finally he only had such a bottle left in his hand."

"In the end, Mr. Shi told us that this Qianlong tea powder glaze Ruyi Ear-Red Olive Bottle is indeed a genuine product, and it is an authentic piece of imperial porcelain from the Third Qing Dynasty. The reason why the simplified Chinese character and slightly dim glaze surface is that Master Wu Tianming made a fake for this priceless bottle in order to protect this bottle during his lifetime."

"According to Mr. Shi, in order to protect the bottle, Master Wu used a secret method to fake the bottle. Master Wu made a characteristic transparent glaze and covered it on the surface of the bottle, which made the color of the bottle look much dimmer. Especially the bottom of the bottle, Master Wu also used a special method to cover the original consciousness, and then covered it with a fake consciousness, which formed the current appearance of the tea powder glaze Ruyi Ear Out of the Olive Bottle."

"Finally, Mr. Shi told us that Master Wu used a clever trick to make the bottle become what it is now. This trick directly blindfolded a large group of expert-level ancient porcelain experts, which is enough to show that this trick is very clever. It is also very simple to break this trick, but no one can think of it. It is very simple to break this trick, just scratch it with a sharp thing, so that the transparent glaze surface can be destroyed, and the real glaze surface can be exposed. However, for such porcelain, no one would have thought of using this method to break this trick. To completely break this trick, you need to mix a special solvent, and then soak the bottle in. After soaking for more than 20 minutes, the camouflage will be soaked away by this special solvent, and at the same time, it will not damage the real porcelain."

Hearing Cai Yi's explanation, Yang Jing couldn't help but sigh that the skill of the ancient porcelain masters was simply unpredictable. Just a simple trick can deceive many experts, and it is simple and incredible to break this trick.

Of course, if you use sharp objects to destroy this trick, it is probably not something that an ancient porcelain enthusiast would do. Everyone knows that if you do this, if you don’t master it well, it is also very likely that while destroying the trick, it will damage the glaze surface of the porcelain inside.

If this bottle worth over 10 million is scratched for no reason, it will really make countless ancient porcelain enthusiasts crazy!

Cai Yi looked at Yang Jing, then looked at the bottle, and then smiled and said, "If I hadn't made a mistake, this bottle should be one of the four bottles that were lost from Master Wu Tianming's house back then. Because of this counterfeiting method, I have been working on porcelain for more than 40 years and only saw it once at that exchange meeting. It is estimated that this trick is also Master Wu's exclusive secret method. Now Master Wu has passed away long ago, so the only explanation for this bottle is one of the four bottles that Master Wu lost at his home back then."

"Yang Zi, we can't break this trick today. If you're fine tomorrow, you can come to my office. I will prepare that special solvent for you, and then let's witness the appearance of a Qianlong Five Bat Holding the Longevity Ear Bottle."
