Chapter 97

After Shen Hao's brief introduction, Nanyang's president's expression changed on the spot, and many other presidents from other places looked at Nanyang's president gloatingly.

It is not surprising that ancient jade appeared in the jade competition. In the previous sessions, high-grade ancient jade also appeared. As long as it is jade, no matter whether it is new jade or ancient jade, you can participate in the evaluation, but the most important evaluation of ancient jade is jade quality, carving Craftsmanship also has cultural significance, and the antique value of ancient jade will be put at the end.

"This young man is quite modest. If this suet jade horse is really the work of Master Zigang, the minimum value is 800 million. Nanyang is dangerous!"

Zheng Kaida whispered to Li Yang and Sima Lin that Li Yang really wanted to use his special ability to observe the suet jade horse at this time, but unfortunately the distance was too far, exceeding the observation range of ten meters.

Sima Lin nodded and said, "That's right, the most important thing is the carving. If this ancient jade is really the work of Master Zigang, today's champion may fall into the hands of Zhengzhou people!"

Wu Xiaoli watched Sima Lin's lips move, trying to explain the identity of Shen Hao but finally gave up.

"Old Deng from Zhengzhou is a very strict person. I think he is very confident in letting such a young man take the stage!"

Zhang Wei shook his head lightly. Anyway, he has completely lost confidence in the championship. It is better to let the championship fall into the hands of Zhengzhou than Nanyang. Nanyang has won the championship of five jade competitions in a row. The chairman of the board is full of resentment, and Zhang Wei is no exception.

On the rostrum, several experts had already appraised this ancient jade. Shen Hao had already raised his head and looked down at the rostrum, with a proud expression on his face, staring straight at Li Yang and the others. side.

It took the longest time to appraise this piece of ancient jade. The most important thing is to appraise whether this ancient jade is the handwriting of Master Lu Zigang. If it is really made by Master Lu Zigang, Nanyang people don’t need to take it out even if they still have a backhand. No, it will never compare to this suet jade horse.

The biggest reason why everyone thinks this way is Lu Zigang.

Lu Zigang was born in the Jiajing and Wanli years of the Ming Dynasty. He learned jade carving skills in Suzhou since he was a child. After becoming famous, everyone from emperors and princes to ordinary business gentry sought after his works. Back then, Lu Zigang's reputation in the jade world even surpassed that of Tang Bohu in calligraphy and painting. world reputation.

The management of the handicraft industry in the Ming Dynasty was very strict, and there was a strict hierarchy. Even at the end of the Ming Dynasty when the "master system" was abolished, there were still legacy.Under such circumstances, Lu Zigang, a humble craftsman engaged in jade carving, can be regarded as a guest of honor by literati and refined scholars, as evidenced by his superb and ingenious jade carving skills.

According to legend, Lu Zigang likes to add his name to his works the most. Emperor Wanli once ordered Lu Zigang to carve a jade pot for him, but he was not allowed to sign the name. It fell into the spout of the jade pot, which shows his boldness.

However, it was this boldness that killed him. Lu Zigang once engraved his name on the dragon's head, and finally angered the emperor and was beheaded. The "Kun Wu Dao" that never came was lost.

Nowadays, there are still statues of Lu Zigang in the homes of many great sculptors in Suzhou. Lu Zigang is respected by many sculptors in Suyang and Yangzhou as the patriarch. The four famous masters are very famous, but they are still inferior to the patriarch. Far from it.

Because Lu Zigang's technique is so unique, it is difficult for future generations to imitate, and there are very few surviving ones, so many people have already determined that if this jade is really Zigang jade, then the champion this time must belong to Zhengzhou people.

Several experts watched it for more than ten minutes before finally nodding their heads together. All the presidents below began to show smiles on their faces, and only the president of Nanyang had the most ugly face.

"Yes, this is a very good piece of Zigang jade. The carving is in line with the characteristics of Master Zigang. The name of Master Zigang is left in the bright place. We all agree that this is a genuine piece!"

An expert stood up and said with admiration to everyone that this kind of gathering of the Hen Province Jade Association has been held for more than ten years, and this is the first time that Zigang jade has appeared.

Experts have already said so, the works of Master Zigang, the master of carving, have appeared, and the quality of the jade is still high-quality suet jade. There is basically no need to continue this jade competition, unless anyone thinks that they have a master than the ancestor in their hands. Engraving works better.

"Thank you for the experts' compliments, but for the sake of fairness, I would like to invite another ancient jade expert to verify it, and I hope all masters can agree to my small request!"

There was a flash of pride on Shen Hao's face, and he bowed deeply to the specialist again, and when he bent down, he still looked at Li Yang.

Li Yang and Wu Xiaoli felt something was wrong at the same time. The audience were all members of the Jade Association, so there is no ancient jade expert. This Shen Hao most likely refers to Li Yang.

Several experts glanced at each other, and finally the expert who spoke before asked Shen Hao: "Young man, who is the expert you are talking about?"

Shen Hao raised his head slightly, slightly raised the corner of his mouth, and said, "It's Mr. Li Yang, who won the jade carving championship yesterday. Mr. Li Yang is an expert who can see through the fake ancient jade of 'Master Kouer' at a glance!"

Sure enough, Shen Hao pointed the finger at Li Yang. Because of yesterday's performance, most people at the scene knew Li Yang. As soon as Shen Hao finished speaking, many eyes around Li Yang focused on him.

"It's him?"

Several experts were stunned for a moment. Li Yang made a deep impression on everyone yesterday. When Shen Hao mentioned it, everyone thought of that young man, but he was too young. What kind of ancient jade expert is he? No one really believed it.

However, Shen Hao said that Li Yang could see through the fraud of 'Ku'er Ye' at a glance. Although several experts doubted it, they didn't say anything. Fake, this level of falsification is one of the most troublesome methods of falsification in the ancient jade world.

Sima Lin and Zheng Kaida, who had a certain understanding of Li Yang, couldn't help but nodded. Li Yang was the most talented person praised by Mr. He. They were not surprised that Li Yang had become an ancient jade expert.

Zhang Wei, Gu Lao and the others stared blankly at Li Yang. Didn't Li Yang have been exposed to antiques for a long time, and when did he become an expert in ancient jade?

"Well, let's invite this expert Li to come up and take a look!"

Several experts made a decision after deliberating for a while, but their good impression of Shen Hao was also gone.They have already verified the authenticity of the thing, and at this time, he called a young man to come up, which is like slapping them in the face, but it is difficult for them to refuse under the watchful eyes of everyone, and if they refuse, it will appear that they are guilty.

Under the gaze of everyone, Li Yang walked towards the rostrum helplessly. This Shen Hao was definitely targeting him on purpose. Li Yang also thought about refusing to go on stage, but if he really wanted to refuse, I don’t know how many tricks this insidious man has waiting for him. For myself, why don't you go up and take a look first, anyway, several experts say it's true, even if he can't tell the truth, it doesn't matter if he says it's true.

"Mr. Li, we meet again, what do you think of this work of Master Zigang!"

Seeing Li Yang walking up, the smile on the corner of Shen Hao's mouth grew stronger. Last time he heard what Li Yang said about the Nanyang party, he immediately started to prepare. This time he spent a lot of money to buy this Zigang jade for To deal with Li Yang, he had to get up again wherever he fell. As for the so-called jade competition activities of the Jade Association, he didn't take it to heart at all.

"It's a nice item!"

Li Yang took a closer look at the Zigang jade, and found that the performance was indeed in line with the characteristics of Master Zigang's works, with the typical artistic characteristics of Master Zigang's "empty, floating, and fine".

Li Yang turned around and activated his special ability naturally. Li Yang's own eyesight couldn't tell the truth from the fake, and he had long been used to using special ability to identify antiques.

The next moment, Li Yang stayed there gently. This piece of Zigang jade is very good, but unfortunately there is only a layer of light yellow light circle on the surface. Said that the Zigang jade that Shen Hao took out was also a fake.

But this jade is indeed a good suet jade, much better than the pair of luminous cups last time.

Under the intuitive three-dimensional map, Li Yang immediately discovered some other subtle problems. Although the carving is extremely exquisite, it is still a little far from the real Zigang jade, and the lines on Yuma's body have not yet reached Zigang jade. That kind of reality is proportional to the state of density and density.

There are some differences from the real Zigang jade in some details, but these differences are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye, unless a high-power magnifying glass is used for identification, and ordinary magnifying glasses can't even see these differences. You won't notice this difference.

The most important point is that the person who made this fake Zigang jade seems to have the same problem as Master Zigang. He also left his own name, and carved four small characters in the horse's mouth - Zhou Ye imitated.

Li Yang's face was a bit strange, he lowered his head and looked carefully at the horse's mouth, only at a certain angle could he see the traces of words inside with his eyes.

Shen Hao looked at Li Yang proudly, Shen Hao didn't care about this jade competition, he didn't even care about this Zigang jade bought at a high price, as long as Li Yang admitted that it was true, he would use this thing to Attack Li Yang to avenge the humiliation that day.

"Mr. Li, how do you look?"

The corners of Shen Hao's eyebrows twitched, he raised his head and asked Li Yang, and looked at Wu Xiaoli in the stands from the corner of his eyes. He even planned to use this Zigang jade as a dowry to propose to Wu Xiaoli, to prove his love for her.

"Mr. Shen, to be honest, don't be angry. The level of imitation of your thing is really too high. I was almost fooled. If it wasn't for luck, today's champion would be yours!"

Li Yang shook his head with a smile, and said slowly. As soon as his words fell, the whole venue became noisy. There was a microphone on the rostrum, and Li Yang's words were clearly transmitted to every corner of the meeting room.
