Chapter 82: The Safe Is Stolen

After two more stalls, the stall owner turned out to be a young man, with a similar grade as Zhao Tianming, with a thief in his eyes, and a pair of iron galls in his hands, playing very slippery.

Iron gall is a popular name, and the more formal name is health ball.

This kind of thing is usually played by the elderly, and few young people pretend to be forced with two iron balls.

The health balls, also known as the king blacksmith iron balls, are two small round balls made of metal, different sizes and models, and different weights, and it is said that this pair of health balls originated in the north. About 500 years ago, that is, during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Baoding Mansion in HB Province already had a red furnace workshop for making fitness balls.

Nowadays, it is believed that the method of health ball is the most suitable for the health care of middle-aged and elderly people. Whenever you have free time, you can go for a walk, watch TV, or sit and talk. It can not only circulate the qi and blood of the whole body, move the muscles and bones, in order to achieve the health purpose of harmonizing yin and yang, but also have the effect of treating certain diseases.

In novels, TV movies, and even used as a weapon.

There are not many items on the stall, only a few pieces of porcelain, among which there is a pair of plum bottles, which are very attractive, and the exquisite bottle body makes Ye Qiushuang stop.

"Look at it! it's all pretty goods!" the young man said to Zhao Tianming and Ye Qiushuang.

The plum vase is the traditional porcelain of the Han nationality, which is a bottle type with a small mouth, short neck, plump shoulders, thin bottom and circle feet. Because the bottle body is slender, it is called "Jing Bottle" in the Song Dynasty, it is used as a container for holding wine, the shape is very beautiful, pretty, and it is called a plum bottle after the Ming Dynasty.

"It's an object from the Qing Dynasty, right?" Ye Qiushuang asked Zhao Tianming.

Zhao Tianming didn't touch it, and observed it a few times: "Judging from the appearance, it is indeed the blue and white plum vase of the Qing Dynasty." ”

Although the plum vase appeared during the Tang Dynasty, it became popular in the Song Dynasty, and the style of each dynasty changed.

The plum bottle of the Southern Song Dynasty became shorter, the bottle body was not as slender as the early plum bottle, and the shoulders were not as full and rich as those in the Northern Song Dynasty. This is closely related to the southern spread of the plum vase shape, which was accepted by the kilns in the south, abandoning the rugged and majestic style of the north, giving people a small and sophisticated feeling.

The shape of the plum vase in the Yuan Dynasty has developed quite maturely, especially the production of blue and white plum vases in Jingdezhen, which laid the foundation for the continuation of the shape of the plum vases in the Ming and Qing dynasties. At this time, the plum bottle was restored to the original style of the northern plum bottle, but the shoulders, abdomen, feet and other parts became thicker, and the mouth craftsmanship was delicate.

The plum bottle of the Ming and Qing dynasties is slightly different in shape, and the plum bottle of the Ming Dynasty has a plump shoulder and a fat shin. The plum bottle of the Qing Dynasty has a plump and broad shoulder, the shin is adducted, and it is slightly skimmed near the bottom.

"Moreover, it should be from the Qianlong period. Zhao Tianming added.

The shoulders of the plum bottle of Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty are particularly plump, almost a straight line, the waist is straightened down, the plum bottle pays attention to patterning, and the dragon pattern is more rigid.

The plum vase in the Jiaqing period has a variety of shapes, some develop to the wide and short type, some develop to the slender type, the carcass is not much different from the Qianlong period, the whiteness of the glaze is higher than that of the Qianlong period, and the texture of the glaze is lower than that of the Qianlong period. The patterns of the plum vase are more diverse, but the artistic taste is worse than that of the Qianlong period.

Zhao Tianming pointed out a few characteristics, making Ye Qiushuang nod frequently.

"And what do you think of these two?"

It can be seen that Ye Qiushuang really likes these two plum bottles, and it is almost love at first sight!

Zhao Tianming touched the porcelain vase with his hand, and the ancient mirror quickly transmitted the information of the porcelain vase to his mind, and after checking the information, Zhao Tianming was slightly startled and looked at the young man.

"It's hard to say!"

Uh!

Usually saying this means that it is not good-looking, and it is almost recognized as a fake.

After hearing this, the stall owner and young man were not calm on the spot. He stopped the movement of his palm and hurriedly spoke: "Impossible, how can it be a fake if it was stolen from someone else's safe?"

Zhao Tianming and Ye Qiushuang were dumbfounded, they stole it and said it so loudly, who taught such a superlative?

As soon as the guy finished speaking, he realized that he had slipped his mouth and quickly remedied: "Someone else stole it from the safe, and transferred it to me." ”

Don't explain, everyone's got it.

"Don't believe me?" he said urgently.

The things were really stolen by his brothers, they were all ancestral crafts, and the theft technology was quite powerful. However, there is also a way to steal, they are also principled thieves, the poor and the good do not steal, and they pursue the purpose of robbing the rich and helping the poor.

After stealing the things of those corrupt officials and being unkind to the rich, they generally do not all be chic themselves, and will take out some of the money to help others.

These things were scavenged from the home of a corrupt official. The corrupt official's study had a large safe, and they found not only these pieces of porcelain, but also a lot of cash, gold, silver, jewelry, etc.

He is the youngest in the gang, and this time the brothers specially want to train him and let him trade on the black market alone.

It was in this way that he was so sure that the two pieces of porcelain could never be fakes. That corrupt official is quite big, no one should give him a fake, right? He was still hidden in a safe, think about it.

His third brother knows a little about appreciation, and has already made it clear that if it is less than one million, don't sell that pair of porcelain vases.

Zhao Tianming sweated in his heart, and said secretly: How can you believe it like this?

"Did you find anything?" Ye Qiushuang asked at Zhao Tianming.

Zhao Tianming knew the meaning of her words, and asked how to tell that it was a fake.

"Judging from the style, as I said just now, the characteristics of the Qianlong period. However, this is blue and white porcelain, and the blue and white porcelain of the Qianlong period is a bit out of line with the pair in front of you. ”

Qianlong official kiln blue and white porcelain is not only different from the quiet Kangxi blue and white, but also different from the elegant Yongzheng blue and white, it is to win with dense ornamentation, neat dyeing and painting, and novel shape. The blue and white flowers of the folk kiln are rich in variety, the colors are bright, the pictures are diverse, and the shapes are novel.

There are many kinds of blue and white porcelain high-grade porcelain in this period, generally speaking, the plates and bowls still use the round loach back circle foot, but it is no longer as small as the Yongzheng Chao circle foot on the ground, but there is a slightly wider ground on the ground; the bottle and the object of the vessel has an obvious touch to the ground, and the two sides of the plane are polished to present an inverted trapezoidal shape without edges and corners; the circle foot of the jar and jar utensils is an inverted trapezoidal shape, and the polishing is rough.

Qianlong blue and white in the Qing Dynasty is known for its "stability, vigor and composure", and is painted using domestic green materials. The early hair color is not much different from the Yongzheng blue and white flowers, and it is slightly fainted, but it is more stable than that of the Yongzheng period; The color of the middle stage is stable and bright, and it is pure blue; In the later stage, the color is relatively thick and dull, and there is no sense of brightness, happiness and beauty.

However, the pair of blue and white plum vases in front of me can't be seen.

Ye Qiushuang cautiously put down the plum bottle, for the time being, she still listened to Zhao Tianming, after all, her eyesight was limited.

Zhao Tianming thought to himself: It must be that the owner of the safe can't see that this is a fake, obviously a layman.
