Chapter 367 Sophistry, Old Lu refuses to admit defeat
Ye Fan's words were accurate and shocked everyone, especially Mr. Lu, who opened his eyes wide at this time.
This kid didn't get started, and this porcelain vase has always been kept in the inner treasury of the Heavenly King's Mansion. No one except himself and the master of the palace has the chance to come into contact with it.
So, how did Ye Fan know such detailed information?
Even the situation at the bottom of the bottle is clearly stated?
Not only him, but also Mr. Lei, Mr. Han, Jiang Zhong and others were also shocked and their eyes widened.
"Ye Fan, how did you find out?"
Mr. Han squinted his eyes, and his gloomy gaze seemed to penetrate Ye Fan.
"How did I find out? It has nothing to do with Mr. Han, right?"
Ye Fan snorted coldly, and then looked at the others.
"As I said just now, what I saw was the real bottle, and this one is a fake, imitation. Therefore, I naturally know everything about this bottle."
Yes, Ye Fan has indeed been emphasizing just now, how about the original bottle.
Could it be said that this porcelain bottle is really a fake?
Mr. Lu frowned: "That's nonsense. This porcelain bottle is the treasure of my Heavenly King's Mansion. It has been in the Mansion for hundreds of years. How old are you, and you actually said you have seen the original bottle? It's really ridiculous."
Mr. Lu was furious. Although how Ye Fan knew about it made him fearful, at this time, he must not insult the reputation of Tianwang Mansion.
"Has it really existed in your Heavenly King's Mansion for a hundred years? I'm afraid Mr. Lu is hiding something, right?"
There was a faint smile on Ye Fan's face. The smile looked very cunning, enough to make people angry.
Especially Mr. Lu, when he saw Ye Fan's happy and contented expression, his heart was burning with anger.
At this moment, he wanted to eat Ye Fan alive.
"What? Did I hit the nail on the head? Is Mr. Lu angry from embarrassment?"
Ye Fan snorted coldly, his brows filled with disdain.
"Hmph, you still haven't explained why this dragon ear bottle is a fake. Ye Fan, even if you speak sharply, as long as you can't prove that it is a fake, you will lose this competition."
Although Ye Fan has been targeting Mr. Lu with sarcasm in his words, as Mr. Lu said, so far, Ye Fan has still not explained why this Long Er bottle is a fake.
But Ye Fan shrugged: "Since Mr. Lu is so anxious, I will let you give up completely."
As he spoke, Ye Fan walked to the side of the dragon ear bottle, "Everyone, please look at the glaze color of this dragon ear bottle. It is sky blue with bright colors, giving people a bright and dazzling feeling. As we all know, the glaze color of this dragon ear bottle in the early Ming Dynasty
The color of official kiln porcelain is average, and the most important thing is quality, because in the early Ming Dynasty, especially the Hongwu Dynasty, quality was emphasized, but relatively speaking, appearance was not so important. Therefore, judging from the color, this object is not from the Hongwu Dynasty.
Objects."
Ye Fan spoke loudly, with firmness in his words.
After hearing Ye Fan's words, Mr. Lei and others fell into deep thought at the same time.
After a moment, Mr. Lei nodded: "Ye Fan is right. The objects from the Hongwu Dynasty in the early Ming Dynasty do have this characteristic."
"Humph, everything is unexpected. No one can guarantee that there will be no bright-colored porcelain in the Hongwu Dynasty. This is not enough to convince the public."
Mr. Lu is still quibbling.
Given his status, it would be very embarrassing for him to make such quibbles.
But the matter had come to this, and he had no other choice.
After all, once he really loses, he will lose not only the face of Mr. Lu, but also the face of the Tianwang Mansion.
He couldn't afford to lose this face, and the Heavenly King's Mansion couldn't even afford to lose it.
There was a hint of coldness on his face, and his eyes looking at Ye Fan were full of anger.
Originally, given his personality, he was not willing to engage in such an insignificant verbal dispute with Ye Fan.
But now, for the sake of face, he can only make various excuses.
Seeing Mr. Lu's dissatisfied look, Ye Fan helplessly shook his head. This old man really didn't cry until he saw the coffin.
"It seems that Mr. Lu is prepared to fight stubbornly.
No, but that’s fine. How reserved you pretend to be now will determine how miserable you will lose later."
Ye Fan snorted coldly, his face full of disdain.
He was indeed full of disdain for Mr. Lu's character, who was obsessed with saving face and suffering.
In any case, even for the sake of face, as a senior in the antiques circle, being so unworthy is enough to be looked down upon.
But Mr. Lu stubbornly said: "What? If you are so determined, will I lose? From my perspective, you are just making a fool of yourself. If you are really confident to prove that my Long Er bottle is a fake, you don't have to
It’s been a mess here, Ye Fan, I advise you to admit defeat obediently, so as not to continue to embarrass yourself here.”
No one expected that Mr. Lu would still be making excuses and even mocking Ye Fan with words.
I have to say that this old man's psychological quality is really excellent.
If it had been anyone else, if they had encountered this kind of thing, they would have simply surrendered.
However, Mr. Lu not only did not surrender, but also threatened to quibble.
This is the difference between people. In any case, given Mr. Lu's character, such sophistry is really laughable.
Ye Fan looked at Mr. Lu with an indifferent expression: "As expected of a member of the Heavenly King's Mansion, he is really very thick-skinned."
Ye Fan shook his head helplessly.
"In that case, I will give you another piece of evidence."
As he said that, Ye Fan picked up the dragon ear bottle.
Immediately, he stretched out his fingers and tapped the bottle several times.
Weng~
With each knock, the porcelain bottle made a dull sound.
Several times in a row, Ye Fan had a faint smile on his face.
"Everyone, I don't think I need to say anything more, right?"
A faint sneer appeared at the corner of Ye Fan's mouth, and that smile was full of confidence.
It has to be said that in Ye Fan's place, any treasure appraisal matters are nothing.
Upon hearing Ye Fan's words, Mr. Lei was the first to speak.
"Because of the fine workmanship of the objects in the official kiln, the thickness of the porcelain body is even, and there will be no siltation and other phenomena. Therefore, the knocking sound of the objects in the official kiln will be very crisp and loud, but the knocking sound of this dragon ear bottle is dull and with a hint of
The buzz reputation is obviously caused by the uneven thickness, so we can conclude that this dragon ear vase was definitely not fired in an official kiln."
Mr. Lei was very cooperative and got to the point with just a few words.
Hearing what Mr. Lei said, Jiang Zhong nodded and said: "Since the porcelain is not fired in an official kiln, it cannot be said to be a palace object of the Hongwu Dynasty. In this case, this object is a fake, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it."
These two people are from Ye Fan's side. If Ye Fan can't produce convincing evidence, there is nothing they can do.
But once Ye Fan comes up with evidence, they will stand up and speak for Ye Fan without hesitation.
Ye Fan smiled, that smile was very bright.
