Chapter 114 Find the Same Style
The experts were unconvinced and consulted many famous collectors in the field, and they all said it was authentic.
"My grandfather was ridiculed by collectors, who said he was old and his eyesight was blurry."
"My grandfather didn't say anything. He asked the seller to take the porcelain and the collectors to the hospital."
Lin Xi was attracted by this story, "Why go to the hospital?"
Chen Qianyu was a little proud, "I went to the hospital, put the porcelain away carefully, and took an X-ray."
"Guess what? Under X-ray, there's a crack around the base of the bottle!"
"When those expert collectors saw the crack, their faces turned red."
"It turns out that the base is indeed real, but the bottle body is newly made in modern times."
"Later, the seller also admitted that it was indeed newly made, but it was made with great care. Not only did the shape and patterns all conform to the characteristics of Xuande blue and white porcelain, but the coloring material used was old material, and the patina was also made by polishing the latest material."
"When you mentioned that just now, I remembered this incident. Now I can be sure that this bowl is also spliced together."
She touched her heart and said, "It's a good thing you reminded me, otherwise I would have fallen flat on my face when I first started out."
"I still have 200,000 yuan in New Year's money saved over the years. I was just about to ask for 200,000 yuan."
"If I really yelled, I'd probably sell it out, and then I'd be done for!"
Li Xiaoqiu shook his head beside him, "The world is dangerous, and you have a family background in martial arts, but you almost got blinded."
Chen Qianyu was still apprehensive. "I'm not going to buy it. I'm just going to take a look. This business is really too complicated."
When she came across a used bookstall, Lin Xi squatted down to take a closer look.
She felt that buying books was not a big deal. Used books were not expensive, only a few dozen yuan at most. Even if they were fake, the knowledge in the books was not fake.
Lin Xi picked out three books, two modern history books and one that looked like a thread-bound book from the Republic of China era, which cost more than a hundred yuan in total.
The stall owner put the food in a bag and Qi Mo took it.
As we were walking around, it was dawn.
The market became lively and all kinds of stalls came out.
There are shops selling beeswax, crystal, Hetian jade, jadeite, and everything else.
However, Lin Xi felt that most of these things were unnatural.
Especially some jade bracelets, they are so green.
If it really is imperial green glass, it would fetch tens of millions at an auction. How can it be sold on a street stall?
I guess it's just to please tourists from other places.
Li Xiaoqiu suddenly stopped in front of a stall.
There were stones of all sizes on the stall.
Some of them have windows opened, revealing the jade inside. Some are green and lustrous, while others are lighter in color, but the water content of all of them looks good.
There are also some gray stones just placed there, looking inconspicuous.
The stall owner greeted her warmly, "Little girl, would you like to buy a stone and try your luck?"
"Don't underestimate this stone. If you're lucky and find a glass-type gem inside, you'll instantly become a millionaire."
Li Xiaoqiu pouted. She already had tens of millions in her hands and was a millionaire. Wouldn't that mean her assets were getting less and less?
Lin Xi glanced at the stones on the stall. Many of them had windows, but there was only a piece of jade skin with stones inside.
Those without windows are even more outrageous. They are all stones, without a single piece of jade.
This is pure fraud, and they cheat whoever they can.
Li Xiaoqiu was actually interested and pointed at the pile of stones. "How much is this one?"
The stall owner said cheerfully, "Two hundred yuan each, take your pick."
Li Xiaoqiu thought that two hundred yuan was not expensive, so he picked one and tried his luck.
Lin Xi pulled her and said, "Let's go."
Li Xiaoqiu glanced at Lin Xi, thought about it, and followed her obediently.
Lin Xi noticed the problem that Chen Qianyu hadn't noticed just now, and she was sure that there was something wrong with the stone.
We walked around until around nine o'clock, and after seeing so much, we felt that all we saw were similar handicrafts.
Lin Xi was about to say go back when Qi Mo took off his sunglasses and looked left and right at a small bottle.
He remembered that his grandfather also had one like this, and it was very similar in size to the flower above. He thought that if he bought this one back for his grandfather, they could make a pair.
Qi Mo asked the stall owner, "How much is this?"
The stall owner looked at Qi Mo and thought, "Oh, this man has an aura that makes it clear he is not an ordinary person." He raised a finger and said, "One hundred thousand."
Qi Mo felt that one hundred thousand was not expensive, but he still had to ask Lin Xi.
After all, he is also a rookie in the archaeology department.
He turned to look at Lin Xi, "What do you think of this? I have a similar one at home, and I plan to buy it back as a gift for my grandfather."
Lin Xi had no expression on her face and held her phone screen under his nose.
Qi Mo looked down and saw a Taobao page with a small pastel porcelain vase, priced at twenty-nine yuan and ninety cents.
There are more than one, there are four of them on the mobile page, they are from different stores and have different prices, but none of them exceeds 30 yuan.
Qi Mo's face turned dark and he turned and left.
Just now, when Qi Mo was looking at it, Lin Xi took a picture of the small bottle.
Then I looked for the same items on Taobao, and wow, there were a lot of them.
Lin Xi chuckled, "Forget it, don't go shopping. There's basically no real stuff in this place anymore."
Li Xiaoqiu and Chen Qianyu both nodded, and the group went home.
Qi Mo did his job conscientiously and first sent Li Xiaoqiu and Chen Qianyu back to school, and then sent Lin Xi to the alley.
When getting off the car, Lin Xi felt quite embarrassed and said, "Thank you for your hard work today."
Qi Mo stared at her from the driver's seat, "It's not hard."
"It's quite interesting. If something like this happens again, ask me to go with you."
Lin Xi waved to him and walked into the alley.
When I was almost at the door of my house, I saw a group of people gathered at the door.
Lin Xi's heart tightened and she walked over quickly.
An old lady turned around and saw Lin Xi, "Lin Xi, you're back! Your bastard father is in there looking for your mother and making trouble!"
The crowd of onlookers made way for her. Lin Xi didn't rush in. Instead, she walked to Aunt Wang, whispered a few words to her, and then entered.
When I went in, I saw Liu Dongsheng standing in the yard.
Lin Fenfang stood at the door, her chest heaving with anger, and her nanny, Aunt Zhou, was supporting her.
Lin Yuan held a broom in his hand and looked at Liu Dongsheng coldly, as if ready to beat him out at any time.
As soon as Lin Xi walked in, everyone's eyes turned to her.
Lin Fenfang looked anxious, as if she didn't want Lin Xi to come back at this time.
When Lin Yuan saw Lin Xi, he also stamped his feet.
Liu Dongsheng was just about to look for Lin Xi, why did he come back at this time?
He looked at Lin Xi, and a flattering smile suddenly appeared on his face, "Xixi, you're back."
"I'm looking for you."
Lin Xi was holding her phone as if looking at something. She rolled her eyes nonchalantly and said calmly, "What do you want from me?"
