The man came to the treasure with a wrench, claiming that it was 20,000 yuan to pick up the leak, the expert was shocked after seeing it, and hurriedly said: "Quickly take it off, you dare to wear this kind of wrench?" You may have broken the law, I suggest you turn it in quickly! ”
On the treasure appreciation program, Lao Zhang brought a brightly colored but cracked wrench, saying that this was a friend who could not pay back the money to pay off the debt, and the expert saw it and exclaimed.
Lao Zhang looked confused, could there be something wrong with this wrench?
"Sir, you'd better hand this wrench over to the museum." The expert voiced a suggestion.
As soon as Lao Zhang heard this, he instantly determined the quality of the wrench, and also confirmed that the old friend did not lie to him, and 20,000 yuan for this wrench can be regarded as earned.
Faced with the expert's proposal, Lao Zhang considered it for a long time, but finally refused. First of all, Lao Zhang really liked this wrench, and since he knew the value of the wrench, he would keep it well in the future.
In addition, he promised that he would never use the wrench as a trade, which is not illegal.
This wrench is because a few years ago, Lao Zhang borrowed 20,000 yuan to an old friend, and since then, the old friend's business has not been very good, resulting in the borrowed 20,000 has not been paid.
The old friend also did not want to pay the bill, so in desperation, he had to contact Lao Zhang and say whether he could use things to pay off the debt.
Lao Zhang saw that his friend took out a wrench, although this wrench was full of cracks, but the color was very bright, and it looked like that at a glance, plus the friend kept saying that this wrench was still an ancestral object, so he nodded and agreed.
After getting the wrench, Lao Zhang didn't pay so much attention to it, and put it directly on his hand, and as a result, other friends said that this wrench was estimated to be a fake, and if it was a real jadeite, it would definitely not be as fluttering as it is now.
Lao Zhang was not sure if he was pitted by a friend, and took a handicraft to settle the debt, but he himself did not have any research on these antique objects, and he could not see it.
Think about it another way, old friends have been friends for so many years, they won't lie to themselves, right? In order to confirm the authenticity of the wrench, and to confirm whether the friendship is reliable, Lao Zhang decided to find an expert in treasure connoisseurship to show himself.
I didn't expect to be on the show, and the expert blurted out such a sentence at a glance, which is really incomprehensible.
"Is this wrench real?" Lao Zhang asked slightly nervously.
The expert looked embarrassed and said to Lao Zhang, "I can only say that this wrench of yours is true, but although it is true, it is difficult to evaluate." ”
Not only Lao Zhang was stunned, but the audience at the scene was also very puzzled, since it is true, it can be evaluated, how can today's expert always say that it is in the clouds.
Does valuation mean priceless or worthless? That's a clear point!
Fortunately, the expert did not specifically sell the pass, and then said to Lao Zhang, "I advise you to take this wrench off, otherwise your behavior will easily break the law." ”
One sentence once again caused an uproar in the audience, how can it still be involved in the law! Lao Zhang was also taken aback, and quickly asked the expert modestly why he said this.
With the next words of the expert, everyone then figured out the truth of the matter, it turned out that the material of this wrench was not jadeite, but the reason why it was said to be genuine was mainly because its material was walrus tusk.
Walrus tusks, very similar to jadeite, plus dye the color of a jadeite, enough to make it fake. The price of walrus tusks is not cheap, because walruses are protected animals of the state, and their finished products are prohibited from trading in China.
Existing walrus ivory products are only allowed to be used as collectibles by individuals or donated to the National Museum. Privately buying and selling walrus ivory products is a criminal offense.
Lao Zhang's walrus tooth wrench, looking at the color, should belong to the old objects of the middle of the Qing Dynasty, the crafts at that time were extremely valuable, and now this craft has long been lost, if this wrench is gone, it can be regarded as a huge loss.
However, a friend gave this thing to Lao Zhang because of the debt, which is also a transaction in a sense, and if you are not careful, you can break the law.
Lao Zhang thought about it again and again, but decided to save this antique wrench by himself. Experts feel that it is a pity, because this kind of craftsmanship lost crafts, put into the museum is the best destination, but the gentleman does not take people's favor, experts have to tell many times, let Lao Zhang must collect this wrench well, absolutely not to buy and sell.
This time it can be regarded as Lao Zhang's luck, in order to identify the authenticity of the thing brought to the show, if Lao Zhang does not know the essence of this thing, resold to others, once discovered, will get into trouble.
Therefore, in real life, if you encounter this kind of antique level thing, without knowing the authenticity, we must seek the help of experts, so as not to make a big mistake one day because we don't know.
