Chapter 224 (1/2)

Chu Lingfeng and Mu Jing looked at each other for a long time. Chu Lingfeng took the lead in smiling and said, ”the shape of this bronze sword is right. The formula of the materials should be from ancient Chinese. The collocation of various metals is right. Making old can confuse the real with the fake. However, he missed one point.”

Chu Lingfeng said here, deliberately sold a pass, the topic changed, and continued: ”Xing Fan Zheng, Jin Ximei, Gong Ye Qiao, Huo Qi De, dissect and moxie already, but if you don't peel off, don't sharpen, you can't break the rope, peel off, sharpen, you can't cut the bowl, cut the ox's ear.”

People listen to Chu Lingfeng's words, they are all at a loss. You say that you drag some ancient prose, as if you are very literate.

But Zenghua knew what Chu Lingfeng said. As soon as Chu Lingfeng's voice fell, Zenghua said, ”Lingfeng, are you talking about Xunzi's sword making theory?”

Chu Lingfeng nodded and said, ”it's really Xunzi's on sword making. Look, the material and formula of the sword are all right, but there is a little problem in the craft.”

”Oh? What's the problem, Ling Feng? You said, ”I really don't see it, old man.” Zeng Hua stares at the sword in Chu Lingfeng's hand. He is a little distracted, but he shakes his head and says.

Chu Lingfeng held the sword in one hand and put his other finger on the body of the sword. He said to Zenghua, ”look at the texture of the sword here, sir. It's obvious that it's separated from the sword. That is to say, the materials used to make this sword are far more than this one. But in ancient times, when making bronze swords, they were all cast with sword models. What's more about the true and false?”

The reason is really simple. The cost of making fake bronzes is too high, so the counterfeiters are not willing to make one at a time. So they will first use the material to make that kind of bronze, then use the machine to cut it into the shape of a sword, and finally grind it. But the traces cut by the machine can not be completely eliminated.

Zeng Hua nodded, took a deep breath, and said, ”Xiao Mu, Ling Feng, what he said is right. This sword is really a fake of Gao Fang.”

”Old man! This... This is impossible, i... this bronze sword is from abroad“ Mu Jing's mind is a little confused when he hears that there are countless counterfeits in domestic antique shops, but foreigners abide by the law. He has been abroad since the early 1980s and has never bought any fakes.

Chu Lingfeng, standing on one side, said leisurely: ”boss mu, why do you think that the moon abroad is rounder than that in China?”

Zenghua also nodded and said: ”Xiao Mu, Ling Feng is right. The moon in foreign countries does not necessarily have a circle in China.”

Seeing that Mu Jing was somewhat incredible, Zeng Hua said with a smile: ”in recent years, we have identified a lot of cultural relics recovered from abroad, and also found that there are many fakes and high-quality imitations. It should be those bad counterfeiters who have focused on foreign countries.”

Mu Jing nodded his head. He recognized his failure. In his voice, he said bitterly, ”it seems that this time I have paid my tuition.”

Fortunately, Mu Jing didn't tell others how much he spent on this sword, which is still good.

Mu Jing once lived abroad for a few years. When the domestic antique craze rose, he immediately realized that this was a business opportunity. However, Mu Jing did not compete with those antique merchants at home, but focused on the foreign market.
