Chapter 61 True and False

However, Mr. Lu was still very calm and did not rush to read the notes of Xiangzu. Instead, he wanted to leave a suspense and look at what they brought first.

"One thing I want to explain first is that since it is a treasure appraisal, there are naturally genuine and fakes in these objects. Apart from these two girls and Liu Chuan, no one of us has to identify an object today. The most outrageous mistake is that we will treat you at the Mingdu Hotel at noon. What do you think?" Before appraisal, Mr. Lu suggested.

Of course, everyone had no objection, and soon the table was filled with things. Tang Ping couldn't even name many objects, but what's the matter? Just be able to tell the truth and the false.

"Today, Xiao Xu and Xiaozhuang are both laymen, but Xu always has always been a guest. Let's ask him to pick an object first to be firm. What do you think?" Seeing that everyone was ready, Mr. Lu spoke.

Seeing Xu Wei looking at the items on the table seriously, Tang Ping couldn't help but look at the funky eyes when he saw him picking up a red bracelet.

After some observation, Xu Wei couldn't help but say: "Boss Song's bracelet is made of pure red coral, with fine texture and some defects that have been formed since then. The overall luster is bright, warm and charming, and crystal clear. The material used is top red coral."

"What? Xiaozhuang, do you have any different opinions?" He noticed that Tang Ping's smile could not be hidden after hearing this, and when Xu Wei finished his analysis and evaluation, Song Jun couldn't help but ask with a smile.

Tang Ping couldn't help but cough and curled his smile, and then said, "Brother Song, I don't know much about Red Coral. However, looking at this bracelet, it looks like a wholesale sold at a street stall in the antique market for ten yuan."

"Mr. Zhuang, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. How could Boss Song's collection be a street stall product?" Xu Wei couldn't help but sneer and mock him when he heard this.

"Okay, I just said it casually," Tang Ping shrugged and smiled and refused to comment: "Since Mr. Xu said it is true, then just think it is true."

Noting that Qin Xuanbing also wanted to pass the string of restraint from Song Jun. After carefully looking at Xu Wei, who was choking by Tang Ping, couldn't help but say: "If Miss Qin is interested in this kind of jewelry, I can introduce it to you if you have time."

Xu Wei, who was thinking about Qin Xuanbing, did not notice the strange expression of Song Jun when he heard Tang Ping say that the bracelet was a street stall product.

"Thank you for your kindness. I believe that with Mr. Xu's appreciation level, your company will definitely be rich and prosperous," Qin Xuanbing, who put down his bracelet, looked at Xu Wei, and there was a rare smile on his face.

As he said that, Qin Xuanbing couldn't help but look at the casual Tang Ping, and a trace of inexplicable light flashed in her beautiful eyes. What made Xu Wei feel a little unhappy was also turned to Tang Ping: "Mr. Zhuang, it's your turn to you next."

Tang Ping, who was unquestionable, ignored him and looked at the objects on the table, and finally looked at the three objects in front of Mr. Lu.

Tang Ping first picked up a wooden carving about twenty centimeters high in water. There was no woody figure, but the shape was beautiful, Guanyin's face was lifelike, the surface of the wood carving was quiet, and the touch was good when held in the hand, with a thick slurry color, and a warm old atmosphere, giving people a sense of vicissitudes.

According to the antique firm books, the carving and patina of this wood carving should be an old object that has been a bit old.

However, there are too many methods of doing old things in the market, and some of them are difficult to distinguish between true and false. Even some people who really understand, even antique experts have some clues, not to mention the knowledge that Tang Ping has learned in a hurry!

Sure enough, after checking the spiritual energy, there was no reaction at all. It was obviously a fake thing: "This wood carving Guanyin statue was finely engraved, with thick patina, like an old object..."

"Of course, this Buddha statue is definitely genuine from carving to patina. I can see it without having to hold it in my hand," before Tang Ping finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xu Wei next to him.

Tang Ping turned his head speechlessly and looked at him, secretly complaining in his heart, what awesome tone, I have a pair of eyes that can distinguish treasures at first glance? You can tell without having to hold it in your hand, your eyes are not that easy to use, right?

"However, it is precisely because of the good appearance that I personally think that this thing was made old later. To put it bluntly, this object is a fake," Tang Ping seemed to look at Xu Wei coldly and said.

Xu Wei was stunned when he heard this, and then he turned to Mr. Lu with a sneer, thinking that Tang Ping was angry and said it backwards, hoping that Mr. Lu could refute it and make Tang Ping lose face.

However, unexpectedly, Mr. Lu didn't say much, but instead asked Tang Ping to take a look at the other two objects.

Tang Ping nodded slightly and picked up the second item, a small and exquisite snuff bottle.

The snuff bottle in Tang Ping's hand is an enamel instrument with two Western figures wearing top hats and holding civilized staff. The whole picture is colorful and realistic in shape, without a trace of time, and it looks like a new thing.

After the spiritual energy in his eyes penetrated into the snuff bottle, Tang Ping suddenly felt a cool breath merge into the spiritual energy in his eyes. Obviously, this was a real old object.

"If this was an object that had been around for hundreds of years, the color would definitely not be so bright, so I think this thing should be a modern handicraft..." Xu Wei could not help but talk aside.

Tang Ping seemed to have really been facing Xu Wei on purpose, and said directly: "I think this snuff bottle should be real, and it should be in the Kangxi and Qianlong period. Such bright and natural colors and such agility should not be easily imitated by modern craftsmanship."

"I can't see this jade pendant accurately, so I won't show my shame," Tang Ping said without waiting for Xu Wei to say more, and pointed to the last jade pendant.

Next, Song Jun and Boss Wang each took the lead in selecting an object to identify it, and then Mr. Lu also picked a jade ring in front of Boss Wang and commented a few times. Song Jun then asked the waiter to remove the tea on the table and asked Tang Ping to take out the manuscript to read.

I don’t know where Song Jun found three pairs of white gloves. After putting on gloves with Mr. Lu and Boss Wang, he carefully read the manuscript that Tang Ping took out.

Looking at their expressions during the identification, they were walking on thin ice. The cover with the four words "Xiangzu Notes" was written, and they looked over and over for more than ten minutes. After the pages were opened, the faces of several people showed a look of heartache. It was because the manuscript was not well preserved and there were too many damaged areas.

More than an hour passed in a blink of an eye. Mr. Lu and his team had read it for so long. The authenticity of the manuscript was about to emerge.

After more than ten minutes, Mr. Yankong and Lu carefully closed the manuscript. Liu Chuan finally couldn't help asking: "Uncle Lu, is this broken book really written by Wang Na? How much is it worth?"

"Broken book? Boy, I sold you all, and it's not worth a page in this manuscript. Do you know that this is a national treasure? Oh, it's a pity that the first half of the manuscript is too poorly preserved and many of the handwriting cannot be identified. Otherwise, the value of this manuscript would be even higher," Mr. Lu almost ran away, and then said sadly.
