Chapter 196
"Actually, a considerable part of Zhang Junxun's identification of Tian Huangshi in "Shoushan Stone Research" came from a person named Chen Zongyi, so this person named Chen Zongyi is proficient in Shoushan stone identification. He has 50 years of experience. Didn't you notice that Tian Huangshi has a style?"

Mei Guang and Jia Ming already knew that something was wrong. They wanted to refute, but they opened their mouths several times but couldn’t speak at all—they really had no other way. Fang Ming’s words had a source , the power of persuasion is too strong.

On the contrary, people of their age like Mei Guang and Jia Ming are the pioneers of the collection industry. Due to their age and education level, when they appraise antiques, they often do it out of practice and rely on experience. If there is a book, there is no way to drop the book bags one after another like Fang Ming, and even make comparisons to ask questions.

"Then did Zhang Junxun make a mistake or did Chen Zifen make a mistake? What's going on here?"

As soon as Fang Ming finished saying this, he screamed in his heart that it was not good. He was not straightforward again, and the people around him would definitely talk about himself again.Sure enough, someone around immediately yelled: "Boss Fang, please speak up quickly, please!"

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you right away!"

What else could Fang Ming do besides "surrender" at this time?
"Actually, Zhang Junxun and Chen Zifen are not wrong."

Pointing at Ke Liu, Fang Ming immediately continued: "Although this friend of mine doesn't know much about antiques, she noticed a very important word in what I said just now, that is, countryman, and The so-called "countryman" refers to the people in Shoushan. What Chen Zifen said was "the so-called no qualifications can't make a field from the countryside", which means that the people in Shoushan said that there is no qualifications and can't make a field, not that he holds such a point of view. .”

"Then, there is only one possibility, that is, in fact, there are very few unqualified or even unqualified Tianhuang stones, which have been mined in a few years, and only those qualified Tianhuang stones will be used next. And those who dig the stones— ——In order to sell their own stones, the "village people" spread the saying that "without qualifications, there is no field". Therefore, this is just the opinion of the villagers themselves, not Chen Zifen's point of view. In fact, his "Shoushan Stone Notes" Among them, he then wrote such a sentence: "Quality is a stone disease, and those with qualifications are not top grade"!
According to the geological research of modern scientific instruments, the grids in Tianhuangshi are actually cracks in the stone. Over the long years, some minerals in the water have seeped in, so the grids are formed. How can such a stone be the most Good Tian Huangshi?
Mei Guang and Jia Ming's faces turned pale all of a sudden, and they stared fixedly at the field yellow stone on the table. Before they knew it, they had been persuaded by Fang Ming: no skin, no grain, no man, The only thing that can stand on its feet is no pattern, no field!

Doesn't that mean that the two of them will lose money instead of stealing chickens?Originally, I wanted to use this piece of skinless Tianhuang stone to dig a big hole for Fang Ming to jump into. Fang Ming did jump in, but the problem is that instead of killing Fang Ming, it killed both of himself. up!
Fang Ming didn't punch?

The piece in front of you is the top grade Tian Huangshi!
The qualified Tianhuang stone is a defective product, and it is a stone that has to be "launched" after the unskinned Tianhuang stone has been mined. The skinless and unqualified stone is naturally much more valuable than the skinned and qualified one!After playing with stones for a lifetime, Mei Guang and Jia Ming both know that there are very few Tianhuang stones with skin and style, and now there are even fewer skinless and unqualified ones, and their intestines are full of regret!

But how can you regret it at this time?There is no way even if you think about it!

"Boss Fang, according to what you said, when appraising Tianhuangshi, can't we use the three standards of no skin, no field, no grain, no field? But these three standards have been passed down for many years. There is always a reason, right?"

Another voice came out from the crowd, and from this voice, it could be known that Fang Ming's previous words had been approved by everyone.

Fang Ming nodded and said: "Of course it makes sense. In fact, these three standards can still identify Tian Huangshi. It's just that we can't take these three standards as the golden rule. A top-quality Tianhuang stone with no skin or grid but with grain."

After thinking for a while, Fang Ming continued: "We can understand it this way. Except for the really top-quality Tianhuang stones without skin, grids and patterns, other Tianhuang stones can be used without grains, without skins, and without grids. Narita's standards are used for identification."

"Ah! Then how should we identify the top-quality Tian Huangshi you mentioned?"

Although the best field yellow stone is rare, it is still possible to encounter the problem. If the criteria of no skin, no man, and no pattern are not effective for the identification of the best field yellow stone, so what Identification?

Of course there is an answer to this question, Fang Ming nodded, and said calmly: "In terms of aspects, I suggest that you can find a book called "Yinshi Bian", which is the masterpiece of Mr. Shi Chao. Mr. Shi Chao's original name is Fu Jiyang, whose name is Shichao, whose name is Naixue, was originally from Nan'an, Fujian, but grew up in a family of artists in Xiamen. He loved painting, stamping stones, antiques, etc. since he was a child, and was good at studying. Because he had a deep relationship with many Shoushan stone farmers, he knew a lot about Shoushan stones. In this book he wrote some new identification standards for Tianhuangshi, which is the so-called six virtues of stone. At the same time, he also strictly described and classified the most important radish patterns in Tianhuangshi. A book well worth reading."

It is believed that good Shoushan stone has only "five virtues", while the best Tianhuang stone has "six virtues", which are thin, knot, warm, moist, coagulated and greasy.

The so-called fine means that the texture of Tianhuang stone is as fine as powder, and the particles are very small, even under a high-power magnifying glass, the particles can be seen.The best Tianhuang stone has no other impurities except the Luobu grain inside; the knot is tight, and the whole stone gives people a sense of unity, and this kind of tight combination gives people a smooth feel; It means that although it is a stone, it feels warm and moist like jade, as if it is a hot spring; moist means that the stone seems to have water vapor in it. If you hold it tightly with your hands for a while, the stone will be covered with tiny Drops of water are like dewdrops about to drip down; condensate means that the stone forms a translucent or almost transparent jelly shape; greasy means that it is related to oil, and when you rub the stone, you feel as if oil is about to seep out of it.

As for the pattern of radish, Shichao has summed up six forms of expression, the first is like the inner layer of radish skin, showing a net shape with eyes, from dense to thin; the second is rice dumpling, It's like steamed rice dumplings made of glutinous rice and soda, the rice grains inside seem to have melted, sometimes scattered into stripes; the third is mesh, for example, like mesh; the third is It is like the inner grain of a radish, or the inner grain of a wax gourd. The mesh is relatively large and irregular, either bright or dark, thick or thin; the fifth is the water flow pattern, as if water is flowing; the sixth The second type has basically no texture, only a few sparse reticular patterns.

Therefore, if someone is interested in the identification of Tian Huangshi, then this "Yinshi Bian" is a "treasure" that has to be studied.Of course, Fang Ming did not explain these details to the people around him. After saying the title of the book, Fang Ming picked up the piece of Tianhuang stone that was placed on the table before, facing the light above his head, and admired it for a while. Then he said: "Although this piece of Tianhuang stone has no skin and no grid, it belongs to the best Tianhuang stone, because it has the six virtues of the best Tianhuang stone, that is, thin, knot, warm, moist, coagulated and greasy. The grain pattern is the most beautiful kind—at least I think so, it is the first kind that I just said is like the inner layer of the radish skin, which is reticulated and has eyes, gradually becoming thinner."

……

"You knew it before you went to Mei Guang's store?"

Ke Liu and Fang Ming walked slowly along the small antiques. When they were in Meiguang's store just now, Fang Ming naturally won a big victory: not only defeated Meiguang and Jia Ming, but also made them eat a lot of rice. As a result, he thought that he used a piece of inferior Tianhuang to deceive Fang Ming, but who would have thought that in the end, he gave Fang Ming the best Tianhuang instead!At the same time, what is more important is that Fang Ming once again conquered those onlookers with this incident. There is reason to believe that the reputation of Fang Ming and Guxuanzhai will be further improved. Someone on the forum has already posted about this.

Shaking his head, Fang Ming said: "As soon as I got my hands on this piece of Tianhuang stone, I knew it was a good thing, so even though I saw that Suning had a problem and asked for 50 yuan, I still took the stone, which surprised me. Since Jia Ming and Mei Guang are digging a hole for me but they can’t wait to jump out, since they have found someone who wants to deal with me, then I can’t justify it if I don’t pay a return visit.”

"As for using the stones they bought me against them, that was indeed a well-planned plan. The most frustrating thing for people in our line of work is to have something in your hands for a long time without seeing it. It's a good thing, but once you sell that thing, it will be proven to be a good thing. Simply put, it's always fun to pick up leaks, but it's sad to drill holes, so I have to tell them clearly that this stone is really good. things, then they still don’t regret dying?”

Fang Ming never felt that he was a noble person, so he would never be able to repay grievances with virtue, but revenge with vengeance!
