There is a pair of natural enemies in the antique industry, that is, the counterfeit paintings and look at the fake paintings. Fake paintings, the painstaking efforts, using all the tricks, in order to deceive the look fake paintings of the pair of sharp and tricky eyes; look fake paintings, but with the eyes to see through the sky, see through the trick, pinch the guy did not hide the tail tip of the fake, play a bunch of paintings to stretch it out, dry in broad daylight.

The name of the fake painting is Blue Eyes. In the pot store street Yu Cheng Gong antique store work, specializing in looking at paintings. The blue eye is not blue, his surname is Jiang, his original name is in Tong, blue eye is his nickname. Tianjin people are good nicknames, one for good call, two for good memory. The blue eyes from his near-sighted glasses, the lenses are thicker than the bottom of the bottle, the color is blue, looks really race a pair of blue eyes. And the key to this blue eyes is still in his eyes. It is said that he can see the painting with the lights off, but he can also see the true and false; although the words are a bit mysterious, the ability is not adulterated. His blue eyes when looking at the painting is really a great God's way - look at the fake painting, the eyes are godless; look at the real painting, a blue light.

This day, a man dressed as a student came to the store, holding a scroll of paintings. The outside of the title label reads "big polyester lake day spring color" blue eyes did not look, he knew that the title label, no matter what is written, all do not count, true or false must also look at the painting. He brushed a pull, as fast as lightning, revealing half a foot of painting heart. This is the blue-eyed famous "half a foot of work", he looked at the painting regardless of size, only half a foot. True or false, all take the half-foot painting to speak, never more than an inch a minute. Blue eyes face half a foot of painting, glasses flashed a blue light, he looked up and asked the visitor: "How much are you going to sell?

"How much are you going to sell it for?"

The visitor did not hasten to ask for a price, but said, "I heard that Master Huang San of the west end also copied this painting."

Master Huang is the first master of counterfeit paintings in Tianjin. People in the antique store are afraid of him. I didn't expect Blue Eyes to listen to Sai, and said again, "I never had any Huang San master in my eyes. You say how much you intend to sell this painting."

"Two." The visitor said. These two are twenty taels of gold.

The asking price was not low, nor too high, and the two sides were slightly raised and pressed, and eighteen taels were sold.

From this day onwards, the antique stores in Jinmen all say pot store street Yu Cheng Gong bought a large axis of polyester Shi Tao's landscape, ink light vivid, pale run of the extreme, there are large sections of the upper side of the inscription, especially rare. Some people say that this thing is playing Beijing so-and-so Wangfu out of the flow. People who come to sell paintings are not very good at it, blue eyes but catch a right. Spend a lot of money, something better. Such a fine big polyester, within ten years of the antique house in Tianjin has not appeared. At that time, there was no newspaper, the mouth was the media, the more they said, the more the gods, the more widespread. There were always people coming to see the paintings one after another, and Yuchengong was on the verge of becoming a silk shop.

When the world had said enough about this end, they began to talk about the other end. About three months after the incident, some people began to say that Yu Cheng Gong that big polyester can not be trusted. At first glance is quite bluff, but a few times to see the soup is thin, no spirit. The difference between a real painting and a fake painting is that a real painting can stand to be seen, while a fake painting cannot stand to be seen. After the word spread, there was news - some people said the painting was a fake made by Huang Sanji at the west end! This is not the same as taking a basin of dirty water and throwing it on the robes of people with blue eyes?

Blue Eyes had roots and ignored it. The more he ignored, the more mysterious the rumor became. Later on, it was said to have a nose and eyes. It is said that someone in the needle market street a person's home, saw the real shaft of the painting. So, one after another, there are people who go to Yu Cheng Gong antique store to see the paintings, but this time to see what Huang Sanji can do to blindfold the blue eyes. I've always seen the most powerful people fall on their faces!

The owner of Yu Cheng Gong, Master Tong Wu, was a bit hairy and said to Blue Eyes: "I believe in your eyesight, but I can't help the gossip outside, which disturbs our store all day long. Let's find someone to inquire about where the painting is. If there is really an identical painting, we will think of it to show it, to distinguish the real from the fake, more seemingly we high."

Blue eyes heard that the boss did not have a bottom, but gossip no one can do anything about it, unless we do as the boss said, the real and fake together to light up. People in the dark, they win in the open.

Tong boss called You Xiao Wu. You Xiao Wu is a ground rat in Tianjin Wei, everywhere, what things can be called to take the ear to feel. They sent You Xiao Wu to inquire, the next day there was news. It turns out that there is really another big polyester, also called "Lake day spring color", and really in the needle city street a surnamed Cui's family! Tong boss and blue eyes do not know who this Cui family is. Boss Tong then asked You Xiao Wu to guide the blue eyes to see. Blue eyes can not not go to the house to take a look, glasses flashed two blue light, silly!

The real painting turned out to be this one. The one in the store is a forgery! The size, color and picture of the two paintings, all the same, even the stamp is also imitation carved. But the difference is the aura - see, this one is really aura!

He did not know how to hit the eyes at first. At this moment, facing this painting, I really want to burrow into the ground. He did not see one for twenty years. His blue eyes have become a god in the antique business. He said true must be true, said false quasi-false, no one does not believe. But this time a slip of the eye, spread the word, that can be ruined. Look at the real and fake paintings this line, look at the right lifetime all should be, look at the wrong one will be a heel planted in the end.

He did not say anything. Back to the store and the boss told the truth. Yu Cheng Gong and blue eyes are connected in one piece, to plant all planted. Tong boss thought about it all night. Have an idea, decided to buy the Cui family that axis of the big polyester over, spend a lot of money also do not hesitate. The two paintings are clutched in the hands, which is true which is false by their own words. But they must not show up to do this, so they paid someone else to pretend to be the buyer and follow You Xiao Wu to the Cui family to buy that axis of painting. Who expected that people surnamed Cui opened the door is the sky price. Otherwise, they would have kept it for themselves and not sold it. Buy something is afraid that one side is not to buy, the other side is not to sell. But the person who went to pretend to buy had a bottom in his heart, because when he came to Huang boss had words for him "is to smash my store, you have to buy the painting for me". This will be repeatedly concessions, and finally spent seven gold to buy the hand, but than the previous purchase of the axis more than twice the money spent more.

When the painting was taken to Yuchengong, Tong was relieved to see that although he felt pained by the money, the brand of Yuchengong was preserved. He told the guys to hang the two axes of paintings side by side on the wall, thoroughly look a clear mind and eyes. When the painting is hung, blue eyes up to see, the lens of the glasses brushed three flashes of light. People actually Sai root stick standing there. Everything under the strange thing in front of you - the original or the previous one is real, just bought back this one is fake!

Real or fake is not put together than a comparison, it is impossible to distinguish between real and fake - this is the skill of people making fake paintings, but also the most superb skills!

But the blue eyes of a pair of long is what eyes? Belly button eyes?

Blue eyes almost a breath of air closed over. Turned three days, he put before and after the things stranded again, then understand, the original all have is Huang San master in the dark to do the trap. Step by step, you are called in. People sell real paintings at no loss, fake paintings sold higher than the sky. He suddenly remembered that the first to sell the painting of the scholar dressed as a person, did not say to him "Huang San master also copied this painting"? People have words in the first place, long ago said that the painting has a true and false. And then look at the eye blame who? It seems that this Huang San master not only for the money, simply say is for their own. People told you to save the real painting in your hands, and then go to buy his fake paintings. How wonderful! When he understood this layer, only to understand to home, admitted to the end! From here on, Blue Eyes rolled up the bundle and left Yu Cheng Gong. Since then, not only the Tianjin antique house his number, the ground in Tianjin also saw the shadow. Some people say he had a serious illness, since then lying down, never got up. Planted really too bad!

Think about it, he has more miserable - he lost to people Huang San master, but only to see Huang San master's handwriting, people's face did not let him see it!

Fortunately, he finally finally thought of this hand of Master Huang San. Death is clear.
