After hearing his master's estimate, Xiao Bai nodded seriously.
Sure enough, my knowledge was still a bit too shallow. I originally only knew that this antique could be faked, but I didn't expect that this small piece of stone could be faked, and I was fooled like this.
"Okay, apprentice, put it away first. We are almost there."
"You are still young, so getting an eye scan is actually a good thing under certain circumstances. After all, your journey has been so smooth at this stage. If you don't have some setbacks, you may have a big setback in the future."
"This piece of ink stone, after all, is of some value. When I return to the imperial capital in a few days, I will find an old friend to help you carve it into an inkstone. You, just put it on your table. Whenever you want to pick it up in the future, Whenever you go out, look at it and ask yourself, are there really so many leaks that can be picked up?”
Hearing this, Xiao Bai nodded and prepared to wrap the stone with two books again.
While Xiao Bai was playing with the children's book and trying to replace the tape on it, two pieces of paper fell out.
"Um?"
Seeing these two pieces of plastic paper, Qin Hai's eyes suddenly lit up while sitting next to Xiao Bai.
"this?"
"Is this okay?"
Although it only took a moment for the two thin pieces of plastic paper to fall on the seat, Qin Hai could still clearly see what was sandwiched in the plastic paper at a glance.
There are seven stamps in total, each with a different Peking Opera mask printed on it.
Carefully picking up the plastic paper holding the stamps with his hands, Qin Hai looked at each stamp in it with a slightly focused gaze.
Special 62.
How could this thing leak out? It doesn't make sense.
Shouldn't all this version of old Facebook be destroyed? Although I have heard that a small part of it has leaked out, I have never heard of a complete set appearing in the world, and it is in such perfect condition.
"Master, what's wrong?"
Seeing Qin Hai next to him staring at the stamp that just fell out without blinking, Xiao Bai was a little puzzled.
He had heard of some expensive stamps, such as Blue Army stamps, monkey stamps, etc., but these large painted faces were obviously different from the expensive stamps he knew.
"Well, no, I can't say for sure about this thing."
"By the way, which book did this fall out of? Come on, give me the book."
After hearing Qin Hai's words, Xiao Bai was still full of doubts, but he still handed the children's book that had been wrapped with several layers of tape to Qin Hai.
After taking the children's book, Qin Hai read it carefully twice to confirm that there were no stamps of expectation in it, and couldn't help but shake his head.
"It's strange, it's really strange, how come this thing comes in a complete set..."
After muttering to himself for a while, Qin Hai carefully put the stamp back into the children's book when he saw that the car had stopped.
"Apprentice, I am not sure about this thing now. After all, my main subject is calligraphy and painting, and this thing belongs to miscellaneous items. However, there happens to be an expert in miscellaneous items here today. I will ask him to show it to you then."
After saying that, Qin Hai did not give the children's book to Xiao Bai, but carefully held it in his hand, and then stepped out of the car.
Although he was still a little confused, Xiao Bai quickly stuffed the Sheshi back into his backpack, then got out of the car and jogged to follow Qin Hai.
Seeing that Qin Hai was talking to an old man of similar age, Xiao Bai didn't say much and just followed behind quietly and listened.
After chatting for a while, the group finally entered the home venue of today’s exchange meeting.
After being led to the seat by the etiquette lady responsible for reception, Xiao Bai looked at the situation in the venue with interest.
The venue covers an area of about 400 square meters and is very elegantly arranged. There are currently more than a dozen bulletproof glass booths displaying collections in the middle of the venue.
There are not many people in the venue, except for some service staff, there are only about forty or fifty people.
"Apprentice, if you are interested, you can go and have a look. The host of today's exchange meeting will not officially start until about two o'clock."
After hearing Qin Hai's words, Xiao Bai put his backpack on the seat and walked towards the booth.
Xiao Bai's dress was a bit out of tune with most of the people in the venue. Most of the guests in the venue were middle-aged or old people.
A few young people also wore very formal clothes, either suits or very formal long skirts. Only Xiao Bai had just returned from Huangshan in the morning and didn't have time to change clothes when he got back to the hotel, so he was still wearing sports and casual clothes.
Coming to the glass showcase, Xiao Bai carefully looked at the exhibits in the showcase one by one.
There are ancient jades from the Warring and Han Dynasties, precious calligraphy and paintings from the Tang and Song Dynasties, and various porcelains from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
Without exception, these antiques are extremely precious and exquisite, the calligraphy and paintings are all from famous artists, and the porcelain is all from official kilns.
What's more considerate is that there is a detailed introduction below each collection, including the specific dynasty it belongs to, which kiln it comes from, etc.
This was undoubtedly a rare learning opportunity for Xiao Bai. He looked at every antique carefully. It was not until the time was almost up that Xiao Bai returned to Qin Hai.
At this moment, Qin Hai and several old men were studying the seven stamps obtained from the children's book.
Xiao Bai, who returned to Qin Hai, did not speak, but quietly listened to the conversation between several old men.
"Old Sun, you are a miscellaneous expert, how about it? Is this thing real?"
The old man called Lao Sun heard the words of the people next to him and took out a small magnifying glass. He frowned and carefully observed every detail of several stamps.
After a while, he put down the magnifying glass and let out a long sigh.
"I think it's true, and these seven are all original glue and have never been used."
"Hey, but this is too strange. How could it be found as a set? It would be fine if it was the Special 45 version made in 1980, but this is the Special 62 made in 1962. Logically speaking, it should be in 1964 In the year, all of them were destroyed before they were even released?”
"How could such a complete and brand-new set be leaked? There are seven complete sets of Meng Liang, Li Kui, Huang Gai, Sun Wukong, Dou Er, Zhang Fei, and Lian Po. What is missing is the unprinted Lu Zhishen."
"This, this, this, how is this possible?"
Seeing the old man called Lao Sun shaking his head for a while and sighing for a while, Xiao Bai felt even more puzzled.
What special 45, what special 62.
Shouldn't 45 be before 62? In terms of preciousness, 45 should be more precious?
At this moment, Qin Hai saw Xiao Bai returning to his side, looking at them with a puzzled expression, and then said: "Apprentice, this is Mr. Sun Limin, master of miscellaneous identification, anyway, these few The stamps are yours, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask him."
