Chapter 115: A Powerful Opponent
The atmosphere was high, the atmosphere of the competition in the hall became weaker, and many people hid their thoughts of asking for advice.
The spectators in the wing room also enjoyed watching it, Shen Ao first defeated three Tai students in a row, and then uncovered the origin and texture of an old jade, which not only broke the conspiracy of the Ministry of Works, but also made him impressed, and then defeated several old fritters in Taixue in a row, which was really eye-opening.
Especially when identifying the old jade, many novel identification methods were revealed, and everyone was fascinated by it. They only now understand that the old jade is not completely unappetizable, as long as there is strength, no matter how difficult the appraisal is, it can also be practiced, and the strength has reached the point of Shen Ao, it is a stubborn stone, and he can also distinguish the ugly and ugly.
The most excited are, of course, Zhou Zheng and Tang Yan, one of whom is Shen Ao's uncle and the other is Shen Ao's teacher, and they both have high hopes for him; Shen Ao showed these hands, it was really breathtaking, especially Zhou Zheng, he is also a lover of antiques, the drop of water method he has never heard of, he can't think of a drop or two of water, it can also be used to identify antiques, it is really unexpected!
Zhao Ji and the third prince were also dumbfounded, and when they came back to their senses, Zhao Ji smiled slightly, and couldn't help muttering: "Is this Shen Ao transformed by a monster?" At such a young age, he has such knowledge. ”
Whether it is a book or a treasure, it is impossible to become a master without rich experience and full of knowledge, the book is about hard work, and the treasure appreciation requires extremely rich historical knowledge.
In this era, books were difficult to obtain, especially ancient books, so even among high-ranking officials and nobles, there was a tradition of borrowing books from each other and copying them by hand.
However, Shen Ao was different, in his time, due to the breakthrough of printing technology and the development of the Internet, as long as he was willing to calm down, any book could be seen.
The big bang of knowledge, of course, is not a simple term, Shen Ao can understand all kinds of allusions, can understand all kinds of antique craftsmanship, texture, from the flood of printed books in later generations, the amount of knowledge he masters, naturally not people in this era can have.
The sky was getting dark, and the servants lit many lamps, and in the flickering light of the fire, many of them were already tired; Although today's treasure appraisal meeting is unconventional and has been disrupted from the beginning, as a spectator, I also feel that this treasure appraisal meeting is very exciting.
At this time, no one dared to provoke Shen Ao anymore, and seeing that the treasure appraisal meeting had come to an end, several people had already said goodbye first.
Shen Ao quietly pulled Zhou Heng and said to Zhou Heng: "We won't go back to the national prison tonight, since we have taken leave, we will find a way to go back tomorrow morning." ”
Zhou Heng suddenly became interested, and said with a smile: "Cousin, then where do you say we are going at night?" ”
Zhou Heng's eyes showed a little ambiguous luster, and he was looking forward to Shen Ao's answer, in the middle of the night, the two sons and brothers didn't return at night, hehe, with Zhou Heng's personality, he could naturally guess something.
If my cousin says a place where I shouldn't go as a prisoner, shouldn't I refuse as a cousin? Okay, just refuse, if my cousin insists on it, my son will give up his life to accompany my cousin.
It's just that when Shen Ao spoke, Zhou Heng was disappointed, and Shen Ao said: "Of course we go to the Yashan House, Dong Zhou, we always have to go to see the business, we can't be completely hands-off!" ”
Zhou Heng was very disappointed and embarrassed and nodded: "Okay, let's go to the Ya Mountain House, I haven't seen Wu San'er for a long time, I don't know how he is doing recently." ”
Some people who were about to leave walked up to Shen Ao to say goodbye, Shen Ao hurriedly returned the salute, and invited everyone to go to the Yaya Mountain House to learn and appreciate the treasures, saying that it was a discussion, but these people understood that they only had to ask Shen Ao for advice.
At this time, a person sneered, the voice was not loud or small, but it happened to be heard by everyone.
"There are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkey is called the king, ridiculous! Alas! ”
The person who spoke was a young man wearing a scarf, wearing a simple Confucian shirt, holding his hands, his face like a crown of jade seemed to be smiling, and his eyes were staring at Shen Ao with a strong sense of provocation.
Shen Ao is crazy enough, but this person is even more arrogant, in a word, he compares Shen Ao to a monkey, and as for the others, naturally they are not even as good as monkeys.
Suddenly, someone said angrily: "What a bold man, who are you?" Dare to speak wild words here. ”
The man smiled, glanced at the scolding person, and then sneered: "You are not worthy to talk to me." ”
After speaking, the young man walked up to Shen Ao, glanced at Shen Ao, and said: "Brother Shen's kung fu in appreciating treasures is eye-opening, but I don't think so, today is a grand event, and I have to compete with Brother Shen." ”
Hey, someone challenged Shen Ao again, and many spectators who were originally going to leave couldn't move their footsteps, and stopped to watch.
Shen Ao smiled slightly and said, "Dare to ask who Brother Tai is?" ”
This human: "The contemptible person's surname is Zheng, and the single name is a poem." ”
Finally here, he is Zheng Shi?
Shen Ao looked at Zheng Shi with interest, and he faintly felt that this person must have come prepared when he appeared at this moment.
It seems that the real good show has just begun.
Shen Ao smiled and said, "You are the student Zheng Shi?" ”
A slight look of surprise appeared on Zheng Shi's face, and then he disappeared again, and said with a smile: "How does Brother Shen know that I am a student?" ”
When everyone heard that Zheng Shi was too a student, they were even more excited, especially those students who were too learned, although they felt that this person was a student, but he claimed to be a too student, that was great, looking at this person's determined appearance, maybe he was sure to be on an equal footing with Shen Ao.
Shen Ao smiled incomprehensibly, and said, "I just know, but ......" He paused deliberately, his smile became a little cold, and said: "It just so happens that I also know a student named Zheng Shi, but unfortunately this person is not a brother." ”
Zheng Shi did not show too much panic, but was more calm, and said calmly: "I don't know how many people in the world have the same name and surname, this is a common thing, there is a treasure below that I want Brother Shen to test, I don't know if Brother Shen dares to fight?" ”
Shen Ao thought to himself: "This person's skin is too thick, but his psychological quality is not bad. ”
In Shen Ao's heart, thick skin is also a specialty, and a person's thick skin can reach a certain level, which should not be underestimated.
Shen Ao cheered up even more and said, "Then please ask Brother Zheng for advice." ”
Zheng Shi nodded, took off the burden behind him, opened the burden, and a porcelain bottle suddenly fell into everyone's eyes.
It was just an ordinary porcelain vase, and many people couldn't help but show disappointment, and couldn't help but think: "It seems that this person is not necessarily clever, with Shen Gongzi's methods, isn't it easy to identify it?" ”
Shen Ao smiled faintly, this Zheng Shi is a person who really knows how to do it.
In the treasure appraisal circles of later generations, some people think that it is easiest to identify ceramics, and some people think that it is the most difficult to identify ceramics, which is indeed a lot of controversy; But Shen Ao understood that the porcelain vase was the most difficult to identify.
Many people often think that the identification of ceramics is the easiest when they first enter the industry, and the identification of calligraphy and painting, seals, and carvings is the most difficult, because the identification of calligraphy and painting needs to remember the names of many painters and the artistic styles of various eras before getting started, but ceramics seems to have a shortcut.
But if you really become a famous treasure connoisseur, this concept will change, and you will gradually understand that identifying ceramics is the most difficult.
Because, although there are many famous calligraphers and paintings, everyone's style is still relatively single, and there are many ceramic kilns, the characteristics of each era are not uniform, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false, so it really responds to the sentence "seeing flowers in the fog".
Moreover, it is much easier to imitate ceramics than to imitate calligraphy and painting, and treasure connoisseurs can easily look away.
Zheng Shilang smiled and said, "If Brother Shen can determine the authenticity of this porcelain vase, he will be at the disposal of Shen Gongzi in the future." It's just ......" He paused, and a mockery appeared on his face: "If Shen Gongzi can't break it, what should I do?" ”
Shen Ao said: "Does Zheng Gongzi mean that Shen someone is at your disposal?" ”
Zheng Shi shook his head, but his eyes fell on Zhou Heng: "It's not necessary, just let Shen Gongzi's cousin, Zhou Gongzi, be at his disposal." ”
Zhou Heng is so aggrieved, how did he suddenly become someone else's bet, he is confident that he has never seen this Zheng Shi at all, what is the surname Zheng doing to trouble himself?
Shen Ao glanced at Zhou Heng, full of expectations that Zhou Heng would sacrifice for art, Zhou Heng hurriedly said, "Cousin, are you sure?" ”
Shen Ao stared at the porcelain vase and said with a wry smile: "There is a little bit." ”
"It's just a little bit!" Zhou Hengda felt bad, and hurriedly said: "No, this surnamed Zheng is weird, let's ignore him; I look at his appearance, does he have a habit of breaking sleeves, wow, if you lose to him, what if he wants to humiliate this son? ”
What a good word for humiliation! Shen Ao suddenly felt that his cousin was still very knowledgeable.
Zheng Shi saw that Shen Ao had not agreed for a long time, and said on the side: "What? Is Shen Gongzi afraid? If Shen Gongzi doesn't dare to compare, then he might as well admit defeat. As for Zhou Gongzi, haha, Zhou Gongzi is too confident, Zheng really has such a hobby, and he will never look down on a dead fat man like Zhou Gongzi. ”
Zhou Heng hated others to call him fat, not to mention that he added a dead word in front of him, and said angrily: "Boy, what are you arrogant? ”
Seeing that Zheng Shi didn't pay attention to him anymore, Zhou Heng changed his mind again and said to Shen Ao: "Cousin, you go to gamble with him, if you lose, it's a big deal I'll let him deal with it." ”
Zhou Heng shook his cousin's hand tightly, and said with the determination to break the cauldron, "Cousin, I believe in you, you must be careful to deal with the battle, don't let my cousin and me fall into the tiger's mouth, do you know?" ”
Shen Ao shook Zhou Heng's hand very emotionally and said, "Don't worry, my cousin will definitely do his best; But say it in advance, if you lose, don't resent your cousin. ”
Zhou Heng was about to cry, looking at Shen Ao's appearance, he didn't have a big grasp, if he hadn't been provoked by Zheng Shi, he wouldn't have gambled with himself, now it's too late to regret it, so many pairs of eyes watching, he can't go back on his word!
I can only fight!
made a bet, but many people had questions, this Zheng Shi seemed to grit his teeth with hatred for Zhou Heng, what is going on?
It's really strange, but everyone can't find an answer for a while, so they can only shake up their spirits and continue to read.
