"I'm sorry, Mr. Xu's friend doesn't want to be on camera, so I'm afraid today's live broadcast will end early."

The treasure friends are naturally very unhappy. The live broadcast has just been live for a while and it is about to end early. Is there any other method?

He Ren had no choice but to whisper a few words to Liu Fei and Zhang Nuo and ask them to draw prizes for the treasure friends in the next box and pick up Ma Jian by the way.

Zhang Nuo cast a questioning look at He Ren, He Ren nodded slightly, Zhang Nuo stopped talking and left with Liu Fei.

Xu Qingjie also walked out at this time and asked, "What's wrong?"

He Ren glanced at him and said, "The things in the house have nothing to do with you, right?"

"No, didn't I come here with you? Is there something wrong with something?"

He Ren nodded, "Is it related to your friend?"

Xu Qingjie was a little anxious, "What's going on? Tell me what you have to say. The sky won't fall."

"Actually, it's not a big deal. It's just that there are pits on the table, which might cause some trouble."

Xu Qingjie looked confused, "What is a pit?"

"The raw pit refers to the newly unearthed bronzes, copper ware and various currencies; while the cooked pit refers to some collectors who wash these items and use reasonable chemical methods to remove the patina in order to prevent these items from rusting and deteriorating again. , and then coated with wax, so that they can be better preserved. Most of the bronzes and bronzes in the museum have been treated this way, and they are considered mature.

"But later the concept became broader. As long as it is just unearthed, it can be called a raw pit; anything that has been processed after being unearthed, or has been passed on several times and can be passed down to the next generation, can be called a cooked pit."

After hearing He Renyi's explanation, Xu Qingjie understood, "You mean, the things on the table were just dug out of the grave?"

"It's very possible. Did I cancel the broadcast without watching it? Maybe my live broadcast room is gone." He Ren nodded, "But it may be fake."

"It's impossible. My friend's family has a certain background, and others wouldn't dare to lie to him easily."

He Ren shrugged and was noncommittal. Who dared to cheat? If someone cheated the second largest one and then ran away directly abroad, how could your friend pursue him and go abroad?

Xu Qingjie also felt a little troublesome, not that it was troublesome to buy these things, but that he felt it was very unlucky. Most rich people are a bit superstitious.

He opened the door and said hello, and a carefree young man walked out with a beautiful woman in his arms. He Ren took a look and thought, hey, he still has some impression of this beauty. She is a third-tier starlet who has acted in several TV series.

At this time, the little star was holding a jade pendant, to be precise, a human-shaped dragon pendant. He Ren was startled and almost threw the phone away.

This jade pendant is a classic human-dragon combination pattern from the Western Zhou Dynasty, with a double-line incised style. The lines are smooth and vivid, and the knife is sharp. Parts of it are brown due to exposure to sunlight. The craftsmanship is fine, but the material used is slightly inferior. It is ordinary white jade.

Whose tomb did that guy in the house robbed?

However, the authenticity cannot be confirmed yet. He Ren saw that something was wrong with the Qin color on it. He opened his treasurer's eye and took a look. He Ren breathed a sigh of relief. It was a late Qing imitation, but okay...

"This is He Ren, the expert I invited. This is Chen Zheng, my... friend."

Chen Zheng looked evil, "Since you are an expert, then help me see if this jade pendant is real or fake?"

He Ren rolled his eyes. These second-generation rich people were really rude when they spoke, as if someone owed him something.

However, for Xu Qingjie's sake, He Ren was still prepared to answer, "This jade pendant was dug from a grave."

Before he finished speaking, the little star said "ah" and wanted to throw the jade pendant away, but immediately grabbed it tightly. He Ren was happy. It seemed that this jade pendant was not cheap.

Chen Zheng's face didn't look good, "I'll take care of him later. Can you tell me first whether this jade pendant is worth anything?"

He Ren shook his head, "It's not worth anything, at most 200,000."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, especially the little star, who couldn't help but scolded, "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand. Mr. Chen spent a million."

"You have no place to speak here!" Chen Zheng's face turned dark. He didn't care about the money, he felt that he had lost face in front of Xu Qingjie.

Sure enough, Xu Qingjie smiled like a chrysanthemum and pushed He Ren, "Old He, tell me why this jade is not valuable."

"Actually, when it was first dug out, it should have been worth 800,000 to 900,000 yuan. After all, it was a human-shaped dragon-patterned pendant imitating the Western Zhou Dynasty in the late Qing Dynasty, which is relatively rare. But the jade seller was smart and painted a layer of oil on it."

"Brush oil?"

The three of them all came close to the jade pendant and took a look. There was indeed a layer of oil on it. Chen Zheng asked, "Is it because of this?"

"Just because of this, rubbing oil on newly unearthed jade is ruining the thing."

"Isn't that true?" the little star pouted, "I heard that applying oil on jade can quickly increase the coating effect and cover up flaws. It is often shown in movies and TV series, and many antique shop owners or street stall owners like to use it. Rub wood, jade and bronze with walnut oil.”

At first, He Ren thought he had met a colleague, but it turned out that he was half-assed. He must have acted in some scenes related to antiques...

"It's okay to re-oil the treasures handed down from ancient times, but if you just re-oil the things that came out of the pit, you're seeking death!"

"There will inevitably be dust on the newly unearthed treasures, especially this kind of carved jade pendant, which has many ravines. If you rub oil directly, the oil and dust will mix and turn into sludge. Remember, it is not patina, but Sludge.”

"So the things that are stuck in the pit must be cleaned by a professional organization first to get out the fine dust inside. If you apply oil before cleaning, the oil sludge will block the excavated door, making it difficult to get a beautiful patina. Qinse will also become very dull, and its value will naturally decrease a lot."

What He Ren said was easy to understand, and everyone nodded frequently. Chen Zheng was also curious, "Can I apply oil after cleaning?"

"Why do you have to apply oil?"

"The patina is the result of oxidation on the surface of the utensils and has little to do with the oil. If you have to apply oil, don't wear a glove pan, as there will be grease on your hands. Really beautiful patina comes out of the baptism of time, and is rich and thick. It is also gentle and moisturizing, rubbing oil will not have this effect.”

The little star was more concerned about whether the jade pendant could be restored. He Ren shook his head and said, "Ancient jade, especially ancient jade that has been buried underground for a long time, will be brittle and it will be impossible to clean it out."

The little star was naturally very uncomfortable. She finally tricked Chen Zheng into buying her a million-dollar jade pendant, but she didn't expect that it was broken and came out of a tomb.

At this time, Zhang Nuo and Ma Jian came up from downstairs. Ma Jian was wearing a police uniform. Chen Zheng was stunned. He Ren smiled and said, "I called the police, I am a positive anchor! "

Chen Zheng was in a daze for a moment, then he laughed and patted He Ren on the shoulder, "You are a bit interesting... But don't worry, I'll go get this jade pendant back first."

After that, Chen Zheng didn't care about anyone else, took the jade pendant and walked back to the box.

He Ren was happy, it seemed that Chen Zheng was also a temperamental person...
