After Lu Zhengyuan left, Su Lao shook his head: "This old Lu is really going back more and more, his heart is so small, he doesn't have the appearance that an elder should have." ”

Hou Lao sneered: "When has he changed, hasn't he always been like this, he can't be small-minded, when Yan Lao hasn't retired yet, I don't know how much he dragged it! ”

"Okay, you don't have to say a few words, don't be in a bad mood because of him. Jiang Weiwen smiled and persuaded, in the end, it was a circle, although Lu Zhengyuan had such and such problems, but for the sake of his teacher's face, it was not good to make it incompatible.

Since Jiang Weiwen said so, everyone stopped talking about this topic and turned to look at the Xuande furnace on the table.

The more Su Lao looked at it, the more he liked it, and couldn't help asking, "Xiao Meng, I don't know if you have any ideas for this Xuande furnace?"

Meng Zitao is his favorite junior, Jiang Weiwen helped to speak: "I said Lao Su, you are asking in vain, for example, if you have such a Xuande furnace, will you want to change hands?"

Su Lao smiled bitterly: "Yes, I won't change hands if I change me, it seems that if I want to get a real Xuande furnace, it will be impossible to achieve it in my lifetime." ”

Su Lao said pitifully, but Meng Zitao didn't dare to answer, he knew too well the cunning of some old-timers in this industry, often they wanted to get a thing, although it wasn't everything, but it was not much worse, and because the price was fair, it was not easy to say anything. If you answer the call yourself, it is entirely possible to step into a trap, so at this time, it is better to speak less.

Seeing that Meng Zitao was unmoved, a trace of pity flashed in his eyes, and then he said: "Xiao Meng, you better put away the things, and if you look at it again, we don't have the heart to talk about other things." ”

Meng Zitao smiled and said good, and then in everyone's reluctant expression, he put away the Xuande furnace and handed it to the army.

"Alright. Jiang Weiwen clapped his hands: "Everyone is also feasting their eyes, let's talk about this pair of heart-turning bottles." Xiao Meng, what do you think of this pair of heart bottles?"

After Meng Zitao bowed his hand to everyone politely, he said: "I think one of the two heart-turning bottles of the Qianlong period is an imitation. ”

Everyone nodded, because this is a very normal view, the reason is that the process of the rotary bottle is too complicated, the size of each part must be carefully calculated, and special attention must be paid to the temperature control during firing, once there is a little deformation, the whole device will be wasted.

Although it cannot be said that it must not be made into a one-to-one identical rotary bottle, this possibility is very small, especially when the Qianlong Dynasty has just invented the rotary bottle, and the process is not very skilled.

You must know that Tang Ying said in the song because of the difficulty of craftsmanship: "The slave has newly proposed a total of nine kinds of sandwich exquisite Jiaotai bottles, etc., and I respectfully send them to Beijing to be submitted." Its new draft is a variety of ignorant views of slaves, and it is not suitable to make it by itself, and the materials are not without expense, so they dare not make more. Emperor Fu prayed for correction so that Qin Zun could burn in pairs again. ”

When Emperor Qianlong saw these strange works, he did not praise or criticize them, but approved Tang Ying's recital: "There is no need to burn as many porcelain as usual, and then more than a dozen pieces will be added according to the knots." ”

It can be seen that even Emperor Qianlong felt that the process was too complicated and labor-intensive, and it was difficult to think about it.

"Then which one do you think is problematic?" Jiang Weiwen asked.

Meng Zitao pointed to the heart-turning bottle on the right and said, "If I'm not mistaken, there should be something wrong with this one." ”

Su Lao was quite surprised by the answer given by Meng Zitao, because no matter from which point of view, the one on the right was better than the one on the left, and it looked more in line with the style of the imperial kiln factory at that time, but Meng Zitao said that there was a problem with it, and I had to say that it was too unexpected, and at the same time, I was extremely curious about why Meng Zitao had this judgment.

"Xiao Meng, why do you think this one is an imitation, but this one is the real thing?"

Meng Zitao smiled slightly, and when he saw that at least half of the seniors present had puzzled expressions on their faces, he explained.

"Maybe everyone thinks that this turnaround bottle is more like the real thing, but I don't think that's the case, as for the reason, let's start with the production process of the turnaround bottle. The production process can be simply summarized as: one is the inner bottle first, and the other is the outer bottle, which needs to be fired in two parts, one for the mouth and neck, and one for the shoulder and abdomen. ”

Finally, the inner bottle and the outer bottle are combined together and fired again, in advance in the bottom of the outer bottle, make a small column button that sets the tenon core, put the inner bottle in the tenon center, and finally glue the mouth and neck and shoulder and abdomen of the outer bottle. How to glue and fix is very important. You should be able to notice that at the junction of the shoulder and abdomen of this bottle, the ridge line on the shoulder is very round, and although it has been painted with clay gold, the two should be bonded together with a low-temperature glaze......"

Hearing this, Hou Lao clapped his hands: "I understand, the craftsmanship of the bottle on the right is wrong, and it is not the level that should be in the Qianlong period." Although we have now deduced the production process, we still don't know how to grasp the temperature without damaging the pastel part of the inner bottle when gluing the two sections into the kiln for the second time. And the production did not crack this process, so a different method from the original process was adopted. ”

After listening to Hou Lao's words, Su Lao and the others also reacted, and then carefully stepped forward to observe, and sure enough, they found the difference in craftsmanship between the two.

Jiang Weiwen said: "In fact, it can be inferred from the process of the rotating bottle that it was normal to have the cost of imperfect quality at that time, and it is a bit idealistic to judge the authenticity by the quality." ”

Su Lao couldn't help but nodded, and said with emotion: "As the old saying goes, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, and one generation is stronger than the next, we old guys should really abdicate." ”

Meng Zitao hurriedly said: "Old Su, what you said is wrong, the old saying also says that there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure." And I have today's level, which is also taught by my master, if it weren't for his careful teaching, how would I have the ability I have now. ”

Su Lao smiled: "Haha, Xiao Meng, don't be modest, I admire Zheng Lao very much, but how old are you to have this achievement, not just because of Zheng Lao's teachings, to put it mildly, your two senior brothers are far worse than you." ”

Meng Zitao hurriedly waved his hand: "Old Su, don't say that, if my two senior brothers listen to it, what should they do if they want to spank me?"
