Chapter 412: How to Identify the Authenticity of Song Dynasty Blue and White Porcelain



Unlike others who were talking, she stood there calmly, waiting for the boss to continue.

The boss figured it out.

"It's you. You must have set a trap for me."

Fang Zongtang looked innocent: "This is my first time here. We don't know each other and have no grudges against each other. Why would I set a trap for you?"

When the boss gets anxious, he starts to talk nonsense.

"It must be the person who came to sell it before and thought the price I offered was too low!"

After saying that, I thought about it and realized that it was impossible.

What others sold him was a fake. Even if the price was lower, it was still a hundred yuan.

The person who sold him the fake goods still made a profit.

It doesn't make sense!

Boss: "You and that guy set me up together!"

Fang Zongtang said jokingly: "We worked so hard to set up the plan, just to smash your pot? Please think more broadly and think carefully about who you have offended."

Think about her!

The boss thought for a while but couldn't think of anyone, so he immediately looked at Fang Zongtang angrily.

"I have no grudge against you. Who asked you to come here and cause trouble?"

She handed the upper part of the Song Dynasty blue and white porcelain to Liu, who was holding the thick bottom!

"To tell you the truth, I have no grudge against you!"

The boss doesn't believe it!

She went on to say: "In the middle period of the Northern Song Dynasty, the foot of the bowl, that is, the bottom of the bowl, had a wider and higher wall. It was so high that the bottom of the bowl could be knocked off with a little force. In the middle period to the Southern Song Dynasty, the wall of the foot became thinner and shorter, but one thing did not change: the center circle was very big!"

"Look at this again, is the circle big?" She turned the base over and showed it to them.

Then he added: "Those thick bottoms have never been seen in the entire Song Dynasty. In the old days, people were very particular about rules. Bowls cannot have thick bottoms, as it would make the family look dishonest. Vase bottoms also cannot have thick bottoms, as they would appear heavy and not light."

"Look at the bottom of this bowl. Is it thin?" She laid the bottom of the bowl flat and showed it to them.

After saying a lot, people who know the business can understand and see clearly.

The bottom of this bottle is smaller than the bottom of the Song Dynasty bottle bowl I have seen before. The bottom of the bowl is at least twice as thick as other bottle bottoms!

Fang Zongtang explained to himself earnestly: "I didn't expect there would be words inside, and the words were written so ironically. I completely discovered the secret of the base, and that word was a pure accidental discovery!"

The boss doesn't believe it!

No one else believes it either!

It feels ridiculous!

But if you think about it carefully, it does make sense.

One of the ten people was questioned.

"How do you know the bottom of the bottle is thick?"

She shook her hands and pointed to her ears.

"The thick sole feels different in your hand, and it also feels different on the table. If you don't understand, can I demonstrate it to you?"

She picked up two similar bowls on the table.

They turned around the table one by one.

"Listen carefully. When a thick bowl bottom falls, the sound is very deep. When a thin bowl bottom falls, the sound is very crisp. A thick bowl bottom stops first than a thin bowl bottom!"

The people present were unconsciously attracted by Fang Zongtang's words. All their eyes were on the two rotating bowls.

The bowls stopped one after another and she turned to look at the boss.

"Whether it's because of the calligraphy or the bottom of the bowl, the Song Dynasty blue and white porcelain you're selling is fake. Do you admit this?"

If there was only the bottom of the bowl, the boss would definitely not acknowledge it.

But so many people have seen the imitation words on the bottom of the bowl, and it would be shameless to deny it.

The boss's face was as ugly as it could be.

Fang Zongtang: "Boss, does the bet we made just now still count?"
