Chapter 6 Arrival in Jingdezhen
On the third day, after Lin Yue explained some things to Qin Yaoyao, he and He Changhe flew towards Jingdezhen on a plane.
Jingdezhen is a famous porcelain capital in the world, and there is a certain reason why this place can develop into a holy place for porcelain making. The water here is relatively abundant, close to Poyang Lake, and the Changjiang River stretches across Jingdezhen. Of course, the most important point is that porcelain stone and high-quality kaolin are abundant, and kaolin is the most important material for porcelain making. There is water and soil, which has created Jingdezhen, a well-known porcelain capital.
It is a pity that because the perennial war in the 20th century has greatly shrunk the porcelain industry in Jingdezhen, time flies, and the former glory is no longer there. But it's still the best place in the country to make porcelain.
From Yunnan to Jiangxi, Lin Yue and He Changhe took a three-hour flight to Jingdezhen.
Lin Yue looked a little excited when he stepped off the plane, this was the first time he had been here, and he seemed to be able to smell the smell of porcelain from the air.
This is a holy place for porcelain makers and porcelain-learning people!
He Changhe glanced at Lin Yue, relieved by Lin Yue's reaction, only someone with an incomparable love for porcelain would have such a reaction.
He saw in Lin Yue what he looked like when he was young, he had an incomparable love for porcelain, and he came here with a dream.
Nearly 60 years have passed in a blink of an eye, and Jingdezhen has its own development, but the porcelain production is not as good as a year.
I hope there will be a few porcelain-making geniuses.
He Changhe sighed in his heart and walked towards the exit with Lin Yue.
Because of He Changhe's identity, and this time it was an invitation from Jingdezhen, there was already a car waiting for them outside before they got there.
Sitting in the special car, He Changhe glanced at Lin Yue beside him, and said to the driver: "Don't go to the hotel first, let's go around here first, I haven't been here for many years." ”
Hearing this, Lin Yue was moved in his heart, he knew that this was his master taking care of himself, once he really arrived at the hotel, the time would definitely be arranged, even if he was accompanied by someone to visit, he would feel very awkward at that time.
Soon they arrived at Jingdezhen's urban sculpture - the kiln fire millennium.
Looking at the fiery appearance, and the sculpture like a sword pointing at the sky, like a fiery bouquet, but also like a huge flame, carrying the wishes and sweat of porcelain makers for thousands of years.
Thinking of the hard work of the porcelain makers, Lin Yue couldn't help but sigh with emotion, I don't know how many people's sweat has been condensed in a piece of exquisite porcelain.
At this time, Lin Yue suddenly thought of a poem called "Jingdezhen":
Mo Xiao digs the mountain with thick hands, and the work is made into a clay tool to move the king's capital. In the past dynasties, there were people from overseas, and the high ridge was rugged and smooth
Behind the exquisiteness is written hardship.
After a general turn in Jingdezhen, the driver took Lin Yue and He Changhe towards the hotel.
Jingdezhen arranged a five-star hotel for He Changhe and Lin Yue, this is the first time Lin Yue has lived in such a high-end hotel, when he and He Youzang lived in a small hotel, although it is also a hotel, but it is far worse than a five-star one.
Under the leadership of the reception staff, He Changhe and Lin Yue heard a "haha" laugh next to them as soon as they walked to the two opposite rooms.
"Lao He, haha...... I don't even dare to recognize you just by looking at your back. ”
Lin Yue turned around and looked over, and found that he was a strong, but somewhat short and fat old man in his sixties, dressed in Tang costume, looking at He Changhe with an excited face.
He Changhe's face also became very excited when he saw the other party, and he laughed and said, "Old Jia, haha...... We haven't seen each other in years. ”
He Changhe walked over quickly and hugged the old man tightly, and the friendship between the two old men touched everyone present.
"I haven't seen you in seven years. He Changhe slapped Jia Lao in the chest "fiercely".
"Seven years, three months and five days. Jia Lao smiled.
"You're still so good at calculating, and you won't be able to change this problem when you're old. ”
"Can't you change your fiery temper if you're different?"
After speaking, the two ronins looked at each other and smiled "haha".
"What about your apprentice Zhang Huiming's kid?" He Changhe asked after the laughter.
"He's staying in the room, we just came here yesterday, what about your apprentice? I heard that your apprentice is good. ”
Saying that, Jia Lao looked around, and finally fixed his gaze on Lin Yue's body.
"I found an apprentice who was okay, Lin Yue came over and met Jia Lao. ”
He Changhe greeted Lin Yue behind him.
Lin Yue stepped forward, bowed deeply to Jia Lao, and saluted, "Jia Lao is good." ”
Jia Lao looked Lin Yue up and down with a smile on his face, and praised: "Not bad, not bad, Lao He, your eyesight is good." ”
"It's okay, this kid is far worse than Zhang Huiming. He Changhe said.
"How old is Zhang Huiming, how old is he, shouldn't you be afraid of losing, deliberately saying good things to find a way out?"
Jia Laohu looked at He Changhe suspiciously.
"How is that possible! Am I that kind of person? I'm just telling the truth. ”
"Haha...... Let's go, let's go have a few drinks today, and we won't go home if we don't get drunk. ”
"Ten of you can't compare to me, am I still afraid of you?"
……
Just got off the plane and didn't have time to rest, He Changhe and Lin Yue were pulled by Jia Lao to eat, and during the meal, Lin Yue saw Jia Lao's apprentice Zhang Huiming, a middle-aged man in his thirties, very shrewd, and Jia Lao are all short and shrewd people, especially a pair of eyes give people a translucent feeling. It is said that he was only taken by Jia Lao in the past ten years.
During the meal, He Changhe and Jia Lao talked about their friendship back then, and Lin Yue learned that Jia Lao's original name was Jia Weigeng, and he met He Changhe sixty years ago. The two stayed together in Jingdezhen for three years and learned how to make porcelain, and these three years of hardship and suffering made the two form a long-term friendship.
Lin Yue thought deeply that he had to learn how to make porcelain before learning to identify porcelain, and if he even knew how to fire porcelain, what kind of identification would he talk about. This time, He Changhe brought Lin Yue to Jingdezhen for this, not necessarily to let Lin Yue learn how to make porcelain, but he must know the procedures and some related knowledge of porcelain-making, and at the same time learn how porcelain is counterfeited and where it is easy to fake.
The two old men chatted happily on the side, Lin Yue and Zhang Huiming also chatted, and he found that Zhang Huiming was a very talkative person, as if everyone who was engaged in antiques was very talkative if he was not engaged in academics, and this was all done by bargaining with the sellers.
It took three hours to finish the meal.
He Changhe and Jia Weigeng were drunk, and Lin Yue and Zhang Huiming could only helplessly send the two back to the room.
After helping his master to bed, Lin Yue decided to go out for a walk, and there would be no time to go around in the future, so he just took advantage of this time to go around.
