Chapter 1101: Visiting the Museum
Meng Zitao hated this kind of deceptive behavior very much, so although helping Song Xiuwen would offend people, he also felt that he should do it, besides, he was not afraid of Song Xi, and he would come to him for trouble if he had the ability.
So, Meng Zitao introduced Xiao Likai to Song Xiuwen, and he could go to Xiao Likai for help.
After ending the call, Meng Zitao called Xiao Likai again to tell him about it, and Xiao Likai also felt that Song Xi's character was too bad and it was okay to play tricks, but it was not the case if he treated his words as a fart.
After saying this, Xiao Likai told Meng Zitao a good news, a recent kiln Tianmu Zhan, has basically achieved his goal, but the completion rate is too low, a kiln product, the final success of the ten is not one, and the quality of the fired product is not guaranteed, now he is working hard to improve the quality.
Hearing this news, Meng Zitao was quite surprised, and hurriedly said that he would go to the porcelain capital in the next two days, and in addition, he had one more thing to ask Xiao Likai to help with.
I still remember that Hanyu Zhenrong opened two boxes of gold and silver from the box, among which the gilt box opened the Yin and Yang Bagua Mirror, and the thing disappeared with Shen Yi, and later, the gilt silver box was also opened by Meng Zitao with the jade pendant in his hand, and there was a porcelain recipe inside.
However, the formula does not indicate which kind of porcelain it is, but judging from the composition of the formula, it should be azure glazed porcelain. And there is also the problem that the formula is most likely mutilated.
So, Zheng Anzhi sent someone to study, a few days ago, the results came out, this formula is indeed incomplete original, according to the recipe fired porcelain, the quality is problematic, however, from the characteristics of the defective products out of the kiln, similar to Ru kiln and official kiln.
Therefore, although there is a problem with the formula, it is reasonable to be taken seriously, and it is likely that through the restoration of the formula, the style of the original Guanru kiln will be reproduced.
In fact, the reason is very simple, he has obtained a lot of information on firing porcelain from Xiao Likai, so he can see that the formula is problematic at that time, and with Xiao Likai's ability, even if he can restore the formula, it will take a long time.
So, Zheng Anzhi asked his opinion at that time, if the formula could be shared, he could make the decision to get some key information, so as to reduce the difficulty of restoring the formula, and Meng Zitao was certainly willing.
This time he went to the porcelain capital, Meng Zitao was going to hand over the formula to Xiao Likai, so that after the successful research of Tianmu Zhan, he would turn to study the formula, strive to restore it as soon as possible, and make a finished product.
But because this recipe is so important, if Xiao Likai conducts research, the corresponding personal freedom will be somewhat restricted, lest Xiao Likai cannot withstand the temptation of money, or unexpected situations will occur, such as being kidnapped.
Therefore, Meng Zitao had to ask Xiao Likai if he agreed, and if he didn't agree, he would find someone else to deal with it.
After talking to Xiao Likai on the phone, Meng Zitao got out of the car and walked towards the gate of the museum.
The museum that Meng Zitao visited is also a private museum, and it has only been open for a few days.
The director of this private museum is named Qian Xingye, because of his love for antiques, coupled with overseas relations, in the early eighties, he went abroad to buy antiques, at that time he did not have much money, so he could only hide and raise, for which he also sold a lot of beloved collections, so many years, finally persevered, opened a private museum.
Qian Xingye's museum collections are all purchased from overseas, and his concept of opening the museum is to awaken the attention of the domestic people to the protection of cultural relics, not to resell cultural relics abroad for the sake of profit, and then it is not so easy for cultural relics to return to China.
For Qian Xingye's concept, Meng Zitao still agrees very much, and he also wants to know it very much, but Qian Xingye is very low-key, and his scope of activities is mainly abroad, and he generally has no opportunity to know. This time, it was through the relationship of the security company that Meng Zitao was contacted.
Meng Zitao walked directly to the door, but was stopped by the slightly nervous security guard: "Sir, if you want to go in and visit, please go to the side to buy a ticket." ”
Meng Zitao smiled and said, "My name is Meng Zitao, and I made an appointment with your Curator Qian in advance." ”
The security guard relaxed, and a sudden look appeared on his face: "Ah, you are Teacher Meng, I said how you are familiar." ”
Meng Zitao smiled: "Is Curator Qian here now?"
The security guard said a little embarrassedly: "Curator Qian has a guest now, let you wait in the reception room for a while, and I will ask the staff to take you over." ”
"Okay, I'm sorry for you. Meng Zitao said politely.
"You're welcome. ”
The security guard hurriedly found the staff, and Meng Zitao walked into the museum under her leadership.
"Teacher Meng, please come here. ”
Meng Zitao looked around, very interested in the exhibits inside the museum, so he said, "Can I visit the museum?"
The staff hesitated, then agreed, took Meng Zitao to observe, and explained to him from time to time.
As mentioned above, the exhibits in the museum are all bought by Qian Xingye from abroad, so in addition to some introductions, each exhibit will also add an explanation of where it was purchased to increase the awareness of tourists.
The exhibits here are very distinctive, and the varieties are also varied, such as popular porcelain, unpopular New Year's paintings, etc., and what makes Mencius admire is that when you look at the past, there is not a single fake, which can also be seen Qian Xingye's efforts.
Meng Zitao admired the exhibits, and at this time, a family of three came to his side, and the little boy pointed to a statue in the glass counter and asked, "Mom and Dad, what is this?"
The child's father explained: "This is a statue, you see there is an introduction on it, it is made of turquoise. ”
The little boy asked, "Who is this?"
"Silkworm God. ”
"What is the silkworm god?"
"You kid, why are there so many problems!" the child's father was a little impatient, and his tone was a little angry.
Seeing his father's anger, the little boy immediately burst into tears.
The child's mother was also angry: "What's the matter with you, if you don't understand, you can't say you don't understand, what kind of anger are you lying to the child!"
The child's father was also a little embarrassed by what he said, scratched his head, squatted down and said to the little boy: "It's Dad who is not good, Dad shouldn't murder you, but Dad really doesn't know who the silkworm god is." ”
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but complain: "This museum is really, there is not even a docent." ”
The staff next to Meng Zitao immediately said: "Sir, I'm sorry, our staff went to participate in the emergency training, please forgive me for the inconvenience caused." In fact, you can go to the service desk to get a smart explanation machine, as long as you use the explanation machine to scan the barcode on the introduction, there will be a detailed explanation. ”
"Then you should have a notice. The child's father muttered.
"I'm sorry, because it's a soft opening, so many aspects are not well considered, and I will take note of your suggestions. The staff said politely.
The staff's explanation can be regarded as dissipating the child's father.
At this time, Meng Zitao smiled and said to the little boy: "Little friend, let me tell you the origin of the silkworm god, okay?"
When he met a stranger, the little boy was a little scared, but he couldn't help the curiosity in his heart, so he looked at his parents.
The child's father said politely, "That's really a trouble for you." ”
"You're welcome. ”
Meng Zitao smiled and began to explain: "Because there were many sericulture people in the countryside in ancient times, silk occupied an important position in the economy at that time. Therefore, since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the people who first invented silkworm breeding have been regarded as silkworm gods, but there are different opinions. It was not until after the Jin and Sui dynasties a thousand or hundreds of years ago that most of the people took Matouniang as the silkworm god, but there were also worshippers of the Tsing Yi God in Xishu. ”
This statue is carved is the god of Tsing Yi, this person is called "Silkworm Cong", wearing Tsing Yi, teaching the people to plant mulberry and raise silkworms, so that the economy of Shu is booming, and the Shu country is created. After the death, the Shu people felt their virtue and worshiped the silkworm cong as the god of Tsing Yi, which is the origin of the god of Tsing Yi. Do you understand?"
After all, the little boy was still young, and when he heard this, he nodded a little ignorantly.
"Sir, you know a lot. The child's father thanked Meng Zitao.
The staff smiled and said, "This is Mr. Meng, the champion of the treasure appreciation competition." ”
"Ahh
The child's parents were slightly stunned, because there were too many followers in the treasure appreciation competition some time ago, and it was widely reported on newspapers and television, and Meng Zitao's experience of picking up leaks has always been talked about. It can be said that it was because of the influence of the event that the family came to visit the museum.
As for why he didn't recognize Meng Zitao, it's actually normal, if a star happens to be around, how many people will realize that this person is a star, maybe the first thought should be that this person is very similar to a certain star.
After being reminded by the staff, the child's parents were quite surprised, and shook hands with Meng Zitao excitedly, saying that they were fans of Meng Zitao.
Meng Zitao also responded politely.
After some greetings, the little boy's mother took out a piece of jade pendant and handed it to Meng Zitao and said, "Teacher Meng, can you help me take a look at this jade pendant?"
The boy's father frowned: "Are you polite!"
The wife scolded: "How can I speak, why am I not polite, it is rare to meet Mr. Meng, please ask him to see what is wrong with the jade pendant? Or do you have a ghost in your heart, and you bought a fake jade pendant and gave it to me?"
The husband was also a little angry: "You are really unreasonable, haven't you read the invoice, and you are still suspicious, are you interesting?"
The wife said: "Then you should take a look, there are so many profiteers now, in case he sells fake goods, or shoddy, we can also settle accounts with him, Mr. Meng, don't you say?"
Meng Zitao smiled, this is not easy to accept, if you are not careful, it is a matter of offending people.
