Chapter 102 Chapter 102 Institute of Cultural Relics and Archeology

Because the huge cut jadeite raw stone was stored in the basement, Jia Sidao never took Liu Yufei to visit the basement, and he didn't even take out the two pieces of porcelain that Liu Yufei mentioned. Enjoy it again. It seems that as long as Liu Yufei doesn't speak out first, Jia Sidao will ignore the existence of the lower room.Fortunately, Liu Yufei also understands that many collectors have some treasures that others are not willing to see, and Jia Sidao has only just started to get involved in the ranks of collecting. Nothing special will exist.Moreover, Liu Yufei's interest in porcelain is really not too high. I said it after I said it, and I didn't mention it again in the following time. It was only when I was leaving that I reminded Jia Sidao that the Bring some small fragments and photos left by the agate cutting village, so that when you go to Henan, you can find someone to identify it.

Afterwards, the two arrived in Ningbo together with Liu Zekun, and then transferred to Zhengzhou in Henan by plane. At the beginning, Liu Zekun suggested to take the train, but in the end, Liu Yufei said very bluntly: "Take the train? How long will it take?" It is said that an inch of money cannot buy an inch of time. It seems that in modern times, money can still buy some time for oneself to a large extent.At least, you can reach Zhengzhou, Henan by train or car, but if you spend more money by plane, you can save more time. The three of them got off the plane together, because they were unfamiliar with each other, Jia Sidao still wanted Liu Zekun to lead the way.

As a result, Liu Zekun is obviously not from Zhengzhou, and he has never taken a plane to Zhengzhou before, so he naturally doesn't know much about this area.The situation of his hometown in Henan is similar to that of a small county like Linhai in Xijiang. It is in Baofeng, and there is still a long distance from Zhengzhou.Instead, Liu Yufei and Jia Sidao discussed it, and decided to go to the Henan Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology first, which is the place where Liu Yufei mentioned that there are acquaintances there, and first go to appraise the agate tree. Otherwise, it would be more troublesome to take things around for a walk and then appraise them when they return to Zhengzhou.Especially for Liu Yufei and Jia Sidao, God knows if they can come back to Zhengzhou again.

Liu Yufei first made a phone call and made an appointment. Hearing that the other person was in the Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, Liu Yufei didn't hesitate any longer, and hurried over immediately after saying a word, and then hung up the phone.When he looked at Jia Sidao again, there was indescribable pride in his eyes, as if it was his relationship, which was enough to make Jia Sidao envious. Of course, Jia Sidao was really as Liu Yufei guessed, but on the surface he was very calm, he turned around and hailed a taxi, and got in first.That understatement made Liu Yufei very depressed.

The place where the Henan Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology is located does not look very grand at first glance.Simple white tiles are pasted on the surface of the wall, and the gate is only capable of allowing two cars to pass side by side. To be honest, it is a bit narrow.But the towering trees at the gate and the faintly visible green branches and leaves in the inner courtyard made Jia Sidao wonder, such a square must have been around for some time, right? After entering the gate, on the bulletin boards on both sides, some development tracks of the Henan Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology are clearly written. For example, it was established in June 1952, and its predecessor was the cultural relics team of the Henan Provincial Cultural Bureau. In February 1981, it was renamed the Henan Institute of Cultural Relics, and it was not until December 1994 that it was renamed the Institute of Cultural Relics and Archeology.As for some other general situations, such as the establishment of units and institutions in the Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, Jia Sidao didn't need to care much.

Following Liu Yufei's footsteps, he entered one of the offices, and there was an elderly man in his fifties sitting in it. He was wearing dark blue clothes that looked like a Chinese tunic suit, and he was quite friendly. At the same time, it also has the temperament of a scholar.Facing him, there were three other guests who seemed to be here to identify something and were waiting for the test results. Before Jia Sidao entered the office, he seemed to see a sign at the door saying that it should be for identifying fossils and strange stones.After thinking about it, it has a lot to do with the agate tree he carried.

Liu Yufei smiled and said hello. The old man's surname was Liu, and Liu Yufei called him Professor Liu.He briefly talked about what Jia Sidao needed to identify, and then, when Jia Sidao took out the photo, not only Professor Liu, but also the three people who were still waiting beside him stared wide-eyed. Especially the few jade worms attached to the agate tree that can be seen in the photo, the vivid appearance makes people really like it. Professor Liu recorded it, and then took a few small stones into the laboratory to analyze the samples, and told Jia Sidao that he needed to perform a slicing operation on the jade brought over.In other words, these fragmented stones will not be able to guarantee their integrity.Of course, Professor Liu also explained that Jia Sidao's things are different from ordinary large fossils.Because the pieces brought over are fragments, if slicing is allowed, and after analysis and research on the slices, the secrets in the whole agate tree can be unraveled more truly and accurately.

Jia Sidao thought for a while, then nodded in agreement. The testing process seemed to be a bit cumbersome, and the waiting time was relatively long, so Liu Yufei and Jia Sidao sat in the office together and waited with the other three.Having nothing to do, Liu Yufei glanced at Jia Sidao, who was still calm, and suddenly leaned over his head, and whispered: "Brother Jia, to be honest, if you use porcelain or something to appraise it in the future, you must pay attention to it." , Don’t let your things out of sight. The more precious things are, the more you have to pay attention to this. Sitting in the office and waiting like we are now can only be regarded as the most helpless choice.”

"You mean, I should follow in now?" Jia Sidao pondered, it is not so easy to enter the laboratory. "The jade slices they analyzed this time are useless even if you follow them in." Liu Yufei said, "Just those few broken stones, to put it bluntly, even if you lose them, you won't be too distressed. I mean In the future, if there are valuable things to be appraised, you should pay more attention to the tricks in it." "That's true." Liu Zekun on the side answered, "In the past, someone asked my brother-in-law to take the porcelain from the house to the research institute for appraisal. My brother-in-law was worried that someone would switch him, so he never went."

"Isn't there an acquaintance of yours here?" Jia Sidao seemed to glance at Liu Yufei unintentionally. "Acquaintances belong to acquaintances. If this is worth hundreds of millions, what can acquaintances do?" Liu Yufei said angrily, "Besides, even among acquaintances, there are many types." The meaning in these words is self-evident. For a while, not only Jia Sidao, but even the other group of people on the side listened with concern.Even though Jia Sidao hadn't experienced some of these ways, even if Jia Sidao hadn't experienced them, he had heard some gossip.It's not necessarily a bad thing to be on guard.

About ten minutes later, a female professor walked in from outside the office. She didn't care when she saw Jia Sidao and the other three, but she talked to the previous group.It is nothing more than the stones they brought. There is nothing special about them, and they belong to the more common type of calcite.However, the carving work of the stone is still good, so the value is not very high.But if you like it, you can still keep it as a collection. Jia Sidao took a closer look, it was a stone carving in the shape of a beast, not very big, about three to four, the size of fists joined together, the appearance is quite interesting, with a little auspicious intention.However, in terms of material, it is hard to see that it is calcite, especially on the surface, it looks more like jade, so it is no wonder that these three people have come to the research institute for appraisal. However, Jia Sidao couldn't help but sighed seeing the three of them returning home disappointed. Even Liu Yufei, who was used to seeing this, shrugged slightly. The female professor, on the other hand, left after speaking her conclusion and giving a proof, her expression as usual without any disturbance.If every person who came to the appraisal needs comfort after returning from disappointment, then this place should be changed into a psychological counseling room. After a while, Jia Sidao deliberately went outside the room to smoke a cigarette. Professor Liu, an acquaintance Liu Yufei knew, came in with a few manuscript papers on which the appraisal conclusions were written. When he saw Jia Sidao and Liu Yufei , with a slight smile on his face. In this way, Jia Sidao felt a lot calmer.At least, this move of mine should be worth the money.If not, the high appraisal fee is really distressing. "Xiao Jia, right?" Professor Liu glanced at Liu Yufei first, and then said to Jia Sidao, "We have tested this thing, and it is generally consistent with your previous guesses. You must know that the whole plant Agate Village was formed in ancient times. According to its volume, surface shape and stone quality, especially the analysis of jade worms above, from the qualitative point of view, such a large-scale group wants to be If it is preserved intact, it must have encountered a huge mutation, which is commonly referred to as a disaster, so it can be preserved. Otherwise, if it is a gradual change, it will not be easy to preserve."
