Meng Zitao shook his head with a smile: "The color of Ziding should be darker, this should be Hongding." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Hiss......" Lao Niu gasped, whether it was Ziding or Hongding, it was a priceless treasure to him, and in his eyes it was like a mountain of gold and silver.

After a long time, Lao Niu came back to his senses and asked the question in his heart: "How is this color divided, and how do I feel that there is some sauce flavor mixed in it." ”

"You don't think you'll be able to make a big red glaze back then. Meng Zitao laughed.

China's ceramic art has a long history, for thousands of years in many colorful porcelain, there is only no big red high temperature red glazed porcelain, this is because the red glaze is not resistant to high temperature, firing is very difficult, is known as a thousand kilns, one treasure, ten kilns and nine can not be said, so firing the big red glaze has become an eternal problem in the history of the world, but also the dream of the skilled craftsmen of the past dynasties.

The appearance of red glaze can be traced back to the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, but the real pure and stable red glaze is the bright red of the early Ming Dynasty, and by the time of Jiajing, it was the alum red with iron as the coloring agent.

Meng Zitao continued: "The color of the sauce glaze porcelain in the Ding kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty is very different, and most of the sauce glaze specimens unearthed at the kiln site are light sauce yellow, in addition to sauce red, sauce purple, black brown and other colors, and there are a large number of kiln changes. This wide variety of hues shows that the firing process of sauce glazed porcelain in the early stage of Dingyao is not yet mature. It can be inferred from this that the 'fixed red' mentioned in the literature should be a variety with a red color in the sauce glaze. ”

"If you go to the Forbidden City and see the 'Ziding Liukuikou Folding Plate', you should know that the main body of the glaze on its surface is neither 'purple', nor 'red', nor 'sesame sauce color', and the exact color is between red and sauce color. The sauce color is orange-red, and it is more gorgeous than the general sauce color, and the sauce red is slightly lighter than the ripe jujube color. ”

After hearing this explanation, Lao Niu was a little puzzled: "In this case, why did people call it Ziding at that time?"

Meng Zitao said eloquently: "As you think, some experts and scholars believe that 'Ziding' should be grape purple, 'Hongding' is red, and sauce glazed porcelain is not 'Ziding' and 'Hongding' in the literature. But in fact, I think this inference is a bit biased. ”

Just like the ancients called the underglaze cobalt blue color as blue and white, and the blue and white porcelain as shadow blue, etc., this is actually the convention of the ancients for the title of porcelain, and it cannot be identified by color alone. ”

"The ancients admired purple as a noble color, which is a well-known thing, so it is understandable that the ancients called the scarce sauce red and purple glazed porcelain that is close to 'purple' and 'red' in Dingyao 'purple ding' and 'red ding' to show its preciousness. ”

Lao Niu nodded and said, "I do understand when you say that." ”

Meng Zitao said with a smile: "Of course, this is my personal understanding, and it is difficult to say whether others agree with it or not." ”

Lao Niu smiled: "At least in terms of color, I think this backflow pot is indeed closer to red, and it should be no problem to say that it is red." Besides, I don't think there has been a porcelain of this color in my memory, right?"

Meng Zitao said: "My master has one piece, but it is missing, and the color is not so correct. ”

"Even Old Zheng only has a broken weapon in his hand?"

Lao Niu was stunned again, and then sighed and praised: "It seems that your red must be amazing." ”

Meng Zitao smiled: "I won't talk about the value, anyway, I didn't think about selling it." ”

Lao Niu said: "I won't sell it if I change it." ”

Such a treasure, unless there is no way, how can it be sold, do you think you can buy it back after selling it?

After a few laughs, Hu Yuanliang came, and hurriedly greeted Meng Zitao and Lao Niu, when he saw the red time on the table, his expression was similar to that of Lao Niu, and after confirmation, he was also envious, and hurriedly asked how he got it.

Lao Niu briefly said what happened just now, and said angrily: "Xiao Qian, that's a deflated three, I actually did this just now, if it were me, I would have to give him two slaps." ”

Hu Yuanliang said: "If you want me to say, it's not interesting for this kind of person to beat him, just hit the snake and hit seven inches, just let him have no place to stand." ”

Lao Niu patted his forehead and said, "By the way, this deflated three is leaving Ling City, no wonder he is so unscrupulous." ”

Meng Zitao smiled slightly: "Leave him alone, after he settles down, I will always have a way to let him taste something else." ”

For Meng Zitao's current ability, both of them have an understanding of what Xiaoqian's fate will be in the future, and they also have some expectations, of course, they look at it with the mentality of watching the excitement.

Lao Niu sat for a while and left, he just left with his front foot, and Zhu Xinyue also came with his back foot, although he was not late, he was still a little embarrassed and a little apprehensive when he saw Meng Zitao.

Meng Zitao is not a harsh boss, of course he doesn't care about this, and then he learned about the recent business situation, asked the two of them if they had any difficulties or anything like that, and then made some arrangements, and he took his things and left.

went out, Meng Zitao went to Zhengyixuan to visit Wang Zhixuan, and learned that Wang Zhixuan was far away and would not come back in a few days.

After that, Meng Zitao drove back to the community and took his things to visit the master.

"Master, this is the snuff I just got in my hand, how about the quality?" Meng Zitao took out the snuff first.

"Yo, it's a big golden flower, this thing is quite rare. ”

Zheng Anzhi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly took the snuff in his hand to appreciate it, and finally said with a smile: "Yes, it is indeed the best snuff." ”

Meng Zitao asked, "How much can it be worth?"

"For tobacco lovers, it is a priceless treasure, and the market price is about 100,000. ”

Speaking of this, Zheng Anzhi pointed to the brocade box next to him and asked, "What is this?"

Meng Zitao sold a pass: "What is it, you can open it and take a look." ”

Zheng Anzhi's spirits perked up, with his understanding of this apprentice, since he sold Guanzi, it showed that the contents of the box should be a treasure.

So, he wiped his hands, and then opened the box, and when he saw the contents of the box, his face showed a look of surprise. Then he carefully took out the things, and little by little he appreciated them, and he was a little obsessed.

Nearly half an hour later, Zheng Anzhi breathed a long sigh of relief: "Where did the thing come from?"

Listening to Meng Zitao repeat what happened just now, Zheng Anzhi laughed: "There is a benefit to accepting you as an apprentice, and you can often feast your eyes." ”

Meng Zitao laughed a few times: "It's really lucky." ”

"Then you're going to have to keep it up all the time. Zheng Anzhi said with a smile.

"I want to, too, but who knows about luck. Meng Zitao scratched his head.

The master and apprentice chatted happily for a while, and Meng Zitao asked a question: "Master, do you know what the situation of the army is now? He has been in the capital for so long, why is there no news at all?" ”

Speaking of which, it has been a long time since the day the army went to the capital, but no news has come at all.

Originally, Meng Zitao thought that the army was not going to carry out a confidential mission, but according to common sense, the army would contact him in advance, but now there is no news, which is really a bit abnormal.

However, Meng Zitao thought that with the relationship between himself and the army, even if the army had any accidents, he should be notified, so he was not too worried. But on the way here just now, he suddenly thought that the army might go to the capital because of the ancient tomb, what if the army went to explore the ancient tomb as a witness?

Thinking of the danger of the ancient tomb, Meng Zitao felt faintly uneasy in his heart, and now seeing the master's reaction after hearing this question, he was a little anxious: "Master, the army won't really have to go to that ancient tomb again, right?"

Zheng Anzhi knew that he couldn't hide it, and said solemnly: "Zitao, you should also know the value of that ancient tomb, even if it can't be excavated for the time being, you have to have a field investigation report." ”

Meng Zitao became anxious: "I can understand what you said, but the key is that now is not the time to enter the ancient tomb! If you want to investigate, there is time, can't you go in next year?"

"For many people, time is of the essence, and some people can't wait that long, and they want to see this miracle before they can walk," Zheng said. ”

Meng Zitao could understand the meaning of these words, and he wanted to say that these people would die when they died, so why should the army follow them to take risks?
