Everyone's eyes turned to the porcelain piece in Chen Fan's hand.

On the inside of the porcelain piece, where the white flowers should have been, there is a very subtle mark of plum blossoms.

Next to this mark, there is another word: gold.

And judging from the curvature of this porcelain piece, this position is exactly at the neck and shoulder of the plum vase.

In other words, this pattern is hidden out of sight on the inner wall of the plum vase and cannot be seen at all. Moreover, the color of the mark and words is also very light, so it cannot be found without special inspection.

"What is this?" Sun Mingen asked in surprise after looking at it for a while.

"There are also superiors and inferiors in counterfeiting. The top counterfeiters can also be called masters. When they create fakes that can be authentic, they will leave a mark of their own to demonstrate their superhuman skills."

Chen Fan said.

Sun Mingen was stunned for a while after hearing this.

Tao Xiaoyan was not surprised and said: "This is the plum blossom mark, which represents the plum vase. The word gold is gold. Can it be replaced by gold?"

Chen Fan glanced at Tao Xiaoyan and nodded.

He was very familiar with Jin Buhuan and had seen many of his works, so he could tell at a glance that this was a fake made by him.

"Who is Jin Buhuan?" Sun Mingen asked.

"Masters of counterfeiting in the antiques industry make most of the porcelain they make that look real, but they also like to leave their own mark."

"This man once made the legendary firewood kiln exquisite products, which were sold for over 100 million yuan."

Tao Xiaoyan clicked her tongue and sighed: "I can't believe that this Plum Ping Ju is the work of Master Jin Buhuan. Even if it is fake, this Plum Ping Ju is still very valuable!"

Gu Zian's face twitched and he said: "No wonder Master Jin's works are so perfect."

Everyone was amazed.

"Mr. Chen really has extraordinary eyesight. He is a distinguished guest that I can't even invite!"

Sun Mingen was not angry because twelve million dollars were wasted. Instead, he praised and said: "Today, I am convinced. Your level of appreciation is not comparable to that of many people in Jinling!"

Chen Fan smiled.

If we talk directly about the level of detecting forgeries and preserving authenticity, not to mention Jinling, few people in the world can compare with him.

"Mr. Chen, what about these items?"

Chen Fan looked over and said: "These are genuine products, but they are not in very good condition. Let's just keep them for fun."

Sun Mingen was not depressed and said: "It is rare to meet an expert like Mr. Chen. Please invite me to the lounge next to you. I will have someone serve you tea. You will have a light meal here at noon. Allow me to treat you well, Mr. Chen!"

"

Gu Zian's face twitched and he felt a little uncomfortable.

Due to his family background, Sun Ming'en was extremely enthusiastic towards him when they met. Now it's better to just ignore him as Young Master Gu.

"No need, I'll take a walk around and take a look at your hundreds-of-year-old house." Chen Fan said.

"Okay, please, I'll go shopping with you."

Sun Ming'en waved to the servants to come over to clean and accompany the other guests, while he led Chen Fan out.

Gu Zian followed him a little bored.

Tao Xiaoyan's eyes flickered and she actually followed her.

"This place is called Huabao Pavilion, and it is considered my private collection." Sun Mingen said: "This way is the Orchid Pavilion, and over there is the main residence."

Sun Mingen personally introduced Chen Fan.

Chen Fan didn't comment and started walking around Sun's house casually.

Sun Ming'en was really enthusiastic. No matter what building Chen Fan was interested in, he would order someone to open it and let Chen Fan visit it.

Half an hour later, Chen Fan took a tour of the entire Sun family's century-old mansion.

Wherever there are buildings, Chen Fan walks around more carefully and can slow down.

However, he found no clues.

This is not surprising.

This garden has been renovated and renovated many times since the time of the Su family for nearly a hundred years. If there are secret rooms or special treasures hidden in the building, they have long been discovered.

As for the possibility that the fragments of the Dragon Compass were buried in the soil or in some corner, it is very slim.

Because Chen Fan is actually sensitive to the aura of the compass fragments.

He visited the Sun family all over, and as long as there were compass fragments within three meters, it couldn't be hidden from his perception.

This was exactly the reason why he wanted to come to Sun's house.

After a visit, Sun Mingen had people prepare a banquet.

Chen Fan was not polite and ate in the Sun family's internal dining hall.

With Sun Ming'en's hospitality, he took care of the meals for everyone who came to visit, but he paid special attention to Chen Fan and asked the chef in the house to prepare several famous dishes.

"Brother Fan, you are really a master. Everyone, I give you a toast!"

After the toast, Sun Mingen raised his glass and said, "It's a great honor to meet you. Brother Fan, how long will you stay in Jinling?"

"It depends!" Chen Fan didn't drink, so he picked up the water glass to signal.

"I wonder if I have the honor to ask you to take a trip to the antique street?" Sun Mingen smiled apologetically and said: "You can ask for any conditions, as long as it is used in my place, there will be no objections."

"Antique Street?" Chen Fan smiled.

"You don't know that in the antique world, I am just a stupid person with a lot of money. As you can see, most of the things I buy are not in perfect condition!"

Sun Ming'en laughed at himself and said: "In my dreams, I want to pick up a leak. I want to pick up a big leak, so that those who think I am stupid and have too much money will smash my glasses to the ground. I am not lucky enough to meet you. Please fulfill it. No matter what the conditions are.

, or

You don’t know, but I just need guidance and help from a discerning expert like you.”

"I wonder if Mr. Chen has time to help me? I will never let Mr. Chen's hard work go in vain!"

Chen Fan glanced at Sun Mingen and felt that the fat young man was very frank.

But he refused and said: "It's not that easy to pick up leaks, or big leaks. I also have something to do here, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help Mr. Sun."

"If you are not sure about any good items, you can go to the Jinling Hotel to find me, and forget about picking them up in the market!"

Sun Mingen couldn't help but be disappointed when he heard this.

However, picking up leaks is really not that easy.

What's more, his dream is to pick up a big bug that will impress people.

In recent years, as the antiques industry continues to be heated up, some basic knowledge of antiques has also been continuously popularized. Eighty to ninety percent of people who enter this industry with the intention of picking up missing pieces will end up being deceived.

Do you really think that others are fools, holding a priceless object and selling it to you at a bargain price?

That's why Chen Fan rejected him.

However, Sun Mingen quickly adjusted his mood and said with a smile: "That's great, I won't bother you less these two days!"

Although Chen Fan refused to help him go to the market to pick up leaks, he agreed to help him identify them, which was also a gain for him.

He could go directly to find those high-priced items while Chen Fan was still in Jinling, and then go to Chen Fan for appraisal. This way, he could also get high-quality products.

After having enough wine and food, Chen Fan stopped staying any longer and stood up to say goodbye.

After walking out of Sun's house, he and Gu Zian got into the car.

Tao Xiaoyan followed up and said, "Chen Fan, please give me your contact information. I also have some questions I want to ask you."

Chen Fan glanced at her and said, "Sorry, we're not familiar with each other."

Then he asked Gu Zian's driver to drive.

Tao Xiaoyan was a little annoyed, curled her lips, watched Chen Fan's car drive away, and hummed: "You think I can't find you?"

When the car arrived at the hotel, Gu Zian followed Chen Fan back to the suite.

"Mr. Long, you think this matter is almost done. What's my antidote?"

After returning to the room, Gu Zian said with an apologetic smile.

Chen Fan smiled and said: "I told you that you were not poisoned, why don't you believe me?"

"Mr. Long, why are you teasing me?" Gu Zian was filled with resentment, but he said in a low voice: "You can tell me if you have anything to do, but you don't know that I haven't been able to eat well or sleep well these past two days. This feeling is really uncomfortable.

, you have pity on me, stop playing with me!"

Knowing that Gu Zian would never believe that he was not poisoned, Chen Fan simply said: "I'll give it to you tomorrow!"

"Okay!"

Gu Zian looked excited and left happily.
