Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

In fact, from the panicked look on the boss's face just now, Ke Yu judged that Lin Ran was right, and the boss was not uninformed, but did it intentionally.

This made her angry.

Now Lin Ran was asked to tell him the identification results.

Lin Ran smiled awkwardly: "Well, I'm not sure about the price, but it's definitely not as expensive as the original."

Naturally, he would not keep his words to the letter and save face for his boss.

The boss is actually very helpless.

The recovered Ming Dynasty blue and white is not in bad condition, but the damage is too serious.

He was very reluctant to give it up, so he found a friend in his industry, a martial artist.

This craftsman is no ordinary cultural relic restorer.

But he is an authentic master of forgery.

It was impossible to repair it, so the boss had some weird ideas.

Only half-repair it, half-real, half-fake, and then sell it at the price of the genuine article.

In this way, even if it is discovered, it is easy to get a compromise price because it has been repaired.

But unexpectedly, the other party directly said that the plum vase had been repaired.

Say everything he wants to say, leaving him speechless.

So I usually don't show it at all to avoid being seen.

I originally planned to sell it to a layman and make a big profit.

After selling, the cutting rules come into effect, and you can't ask him to compensate you.

I have been avoiding experienced treasure appraisers, but I didn't expect that I would capsize in the gutter.

He was actually spotted by the 20-year-old boy in front of him.

"What do you want me to ask you?" Ke Yu emphasized his tone again.

The boss's silence is basically the default.

However, the boss suddenly thought of something.

Antique appraisal is a job that requires experience. This guy must be in his early twenties at most, so he cannot have much experience. What he said just now may be just to scare himself.

It just happened that he was right!

It must be so!

The boss has opened a store in Panjiayuan for more than 20 years and has never seen such a young treasure appraiser.

At his age, even if he knew how to identify treasures, he would only have a superficial understanding of it.

As for Miss Ke and the bald head, they definitely couldn't tell.

The only failure now is that I acted too panicked just now, but I can use my acting skills to make up for it in time!

When the boss thought of this, he immediately changed his tone.

He laughed and said, "Ms. Ke, I'm sorry. I'm a serious person and I lost my temper a little."

He stood up straight and looked at Lin Ran with a serious expression: "Little Master Lin, what you just said is actually not completely correct. Even the patina may fall off. At your age, you have never seen any antiques. Not many, so it’s normal that we haven’t seen this phenomenon.”

"But I can tell you that in antiques, it's not a sure thing."

After the boss finished speaking, he glanced at Ke Yu.

As expected, Ke Yu had turned his face to Lin Ran.

They are all fledgling kids without much social experience.

As long as they refuse to admit it, there is absolutely nothing they can do.

Hearing this, Lin Ran couldn't help but sigh.

"Didn't you hear what I just said?"

"You heard me, I explained. If you have other evidence, show it. If not, please shut up!"

The more the boss talked, the more excited he became.

The bald man was frightened by him. He looked at the boss and then at Lin Ran.

For a moment, I didn’t know who to believe.

In fact, Ke Yu was okay. He had seen Lin Ran's abilities, so how could the owner of this small antique shop compare to him.

But she didn't say anything, just wanted to see how Lin Ran would answer.

Even though the boss was talking about this, Lin Ran didn't even give him any face and was still aggressive.

If I didn't explain further, wouldn't I be looking down upon by my boss?

As an antique person, you still need to be arrogant.

Lin Ran coughed and said, "Actually, I wasn't sure at first, but now I understand what the problem is."

Ke Yu looked at Lin Ran curiously, and the boss's eyes became nervous.

"Actually, the situation you mentioned is not unheard of. Although it is rare, discoloration does exist."

The boss thought Lin Ran was going to say something, but it turned out that he was admitting what he said.

He couldn't help but laugh proudly: "Little brother, although you talk arrogantly, just admit your mistakes and correct them."

A very magnanimous one.

In his heart, Lin Ran had given up.

Now he is ready to adjust his tone and bargain with Miss Ke.

However, it was obvious that Lin Ran had not finished speaking.

"It's just that."

Lin Ran pointed to the glaze on the bottle and said, "Isn't this a little strange?"

"What's the problem?"

The boss felt even more confused when he saw Lin Ran's fingers, because he was not referring to the old part.

As expected, he is just a layman who pretends to understand.

Thinking of this, he became very confident.

Lin Ran laughed: "This is called glaze shrinkage. It is because the production process in the Ming Dynasty was not refined, so this is a defect caused by the immature firing process."

Glaze shrinkage is a special phenomenon of ceramic glaze, which is caused by shrinkage of the glaze during firing.

During the production process, the glaze usually shrinks less than the porcelain body, so the glaze layer will be stretched at high temperatures, forming a certain tension.

When the glaze layer cools and shrinks, the tension will cause the glaze layer to shrink, causing wrinkles, cracks, warping and other phenomena. This is glaze shrinkage.

The appearance of shrinkage glaze can add a unique beauty to ceramic products, but it will also affect the quality and service life of ceramics.

The boss explained the shrinkage glaze and looked at him as if he was mocking Lin Ran: "Little brother, is there anything strange?"

There was a sense of contempt in his eyes, and he felt that he was rare and strange.

Lin Ran said calmly: "Yes, boss, this phenomenon is very common, isn't it? After all, in the Ming Dynasty, the porcelain firing process was not perfect."

"That's right." After the boss said this, he immediately realized something was wrong.

Lin Ran was looking at him with a smile.

This situation cannot only occur in one place, but in the corresponding location, there is no such phenomenon at all!

Ke Yu immediately picked up the plum vase and inspected it. There was no sign of glaze shrinkage on the other side.

"You wouldn't tell me that this plum vase was made in two stoves, right?" Lin Ran looked at the boss with a smile.

Ke Yu put the bottle down directly, without even wearing gloves.

"Boss, please explain what's going on?"

The boss, who looked confident just now, was suddenly stunned.

This kid, he actually set a trap for himself and tricked himself into crawling inside.

But by the time he realized all this, it was already too late.

He actually saw the problem!

As long as it is fake, there will be flaws.

Lin Ran himself is an expert in the handicraft manufacturing industry and has a deeper understanding of porcelain.

Although the boss's plum vase was better at counterfeiting than ordinary imitations outside, he didn't notice the flaw for a moment.

But careful study can still reveal the problem.
