"Lao Yu, you help me greet guests, Mr. Zhuang, you are an expert, let's go inside to talk ......"

Hearing Yu Zhengjun nodding in agreement, Xu Guoqing grabbed Zhuang Rui, completely ignoring the fact that he still had paint on his hands, which made Zhuang Rui's snow-white shirt have five more finger prints. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"This ...... Mr. Zhuang, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I imagine you asking for advice, what are the flaws in my works, and you can see them?"

Xu Guoqing no longer understands the world, and he also knows that his movements are a little inappropriate, so he let go of his hand at the moment, but he still looked eager, and his bright eyes stared at Zhuang Rui through the lenses.

Zhuang Rui looked at the mark on his sleeve and couldn't help but smile bitterly, he could also see that Xu Guoqing didn't have any problems with his brain, but he just put all his attention on studying ancient ceramic technology, so from the outsider's point of view, he felt that this person was a little weird.

However, anyone who has made outstanding achievements in certain fields has a strange temper of one kind or another, like Picasso, who just can't live without women, and when he is in his nineties, there is still no shortage of beautiful women around him.

And more scientists also have many strange habits that are not known to outsiders, but when they become famous, these quirks have become advantages.

"Call me by my name, Zhuang Rui......" Zhuang Rui said with a smile.

"Ah, I thought your name was Mr. Zhuang, come, let's go inside and talk ......"

Xu Guoqing scratched his head embarrassedly, which added another color to his head, but in Zhuang Rui's eyes, this forty-year-old man looked very simple.

Zhuang Rui was also a little curious about what Xu Guoqing's studio looked like, so he followed him and walked in from one side.

Peng Fei felt that Xu Guoqing had a mental problem, and he was afraid that he would hurt Zhuang Rui, so he also followed, and Li Dali specially accompanied Zhuang Rui this time, so naturally there was no reason to wait outside, and several people all walked into Xu Guoqing's laboratory at the moment.

"Well, this ...... Is that your studio?"

As soon as Zhuang Rui walked into the side, he was taken aback, this room was four or five hundred square in size, but the thing in the middle made Zhuang Rui dumbfounded.

The big chimney that Zhuang Rui saw from the outside was inside the house, and the brick chimney with a diameter of almost ten meters appeared in a room, which was still quite shocking.

In the next place, there are shelves of different heights, and on each shelf, there are almost hundreds of pieces of porcelain that have been prepared in the embryo shape, but have not yet been colored and fired in the furnace.

That's not all, in the corner of the room, there are also crushers, Raymond mills, and extremely professional jet mills, which are very professional crushing tools, which can grind mines and some sun-dried hard soil into very fine powder.

Zhuang Rui knows that the real sense of the best imitation porcelain, that requires a lot of effort, not only to build a kiln in the ancient way, but also to use the original porcelain clay of the porcelain.

Even the glaze pigments used for coloring also need to grind some colored ore powder by themselves, and then heat them at high temperatures to mix them by themselves, and the chemical raw materials on the market are absolutely not usable.

Even after these processes are completed, there are often scraps at the time of firing, and the value of modern imitations fired like this is no cheaper than some old antiques, or even surpasses.

Zhuang Rui can see that all the embryo-making, painting, glazing and firing processes of all objects here are completed by Xu Guoqing alone, and this alone requires mastering several disciplines, if Xu Guoqing does not have that kind of fanatical attitude, it is really not good.

"Zhuang Rui, you haven't said it yet, how did you see the flaws in my works......"

To be honest, Xu Guoqing is still extremely confident in the three-color ceramic figurines he imitates, because whether it is from the clay or the firing process, he strictly follows the ancient secret recipes.

In Xu Guoqing's mind, unless it is a carbon 14 test, Xu Guoqing does not believe that with the naked eye and other instruments, those objects can be detected as fake?

"Hehe, I'll call you XCMG......"

The other party is older than him, and the name is inappropriate, so Zhuang Rui thought of a name.

"It's okay to call it, you can talk about it quickly......" Xu Guoqing didn't have any interest in what Zhuang Rui called him, he wanted to know now that he had fired Tang Sancai, what were the shortcomings and things that needed to be improved.

Zhuang Rui shook his head with a smile and said, "Xu Gong, let me ask, which dynasty did you say that the official kiln started from?"

"From the Song Dynasty, although the Han and Tang dynasties also had kiln sites for royal use, the supervision was not so strong, and it was not distinguished from the people......

It was from the Song Dynasty that the royal ceramic utensils were distinguished from the folk, but Zhuang Rui, what does this have to do with my Tang Sancai?"

Xu Guoqing fired Tang Sancai, it was a few years ago, he felt that Tang Sancai's process had been completely deciphered by him, there was no challenge, so in recent years, he has been studying the Song Dynasty Cizhou kiln, so Zhuang Rui's question can be answered casually.

"Yes, it is indeed an official kiln set up from the Song Dynasty, the ceramics of the Han and Tang dynasties, in addition to Tang Sancai is a fine product, there are not many good things handed down, which also verifies that things are not necessarily the more ancient the better, otherwise this mountain of stones has the longest history, why is it the least valuable?"

Zhuang Rui's words not only confused Xu Guoqing, but also Li Dali and Yu Zhengjun were also confused, and I don't know what Zhuang Rui said about this and Xu Guoqing's problem.

"Perfect, Xu Gong, the only flaw in your three-color pottery figurines is in perfection!" Without waiting for Xu Guoqing to ask, Zhuang Rui gave the answer himself.

Xu Guoqing still didn't understand, and muttered to himself: "Perfect, is there anything wrong with being perfect? It should be imitated and exactly the same as the real thing......

"Of course, perfection is right, but it has to be divided into eras, if it is the official kiln porcelain after the Song Dynasty, then it is necessary to pursue perfection, the thickness of the texture of a petal species, the distance between the two petals, there can be no mistake in the slightest, but for the three-color porcelain, you are too perfect......"

After the Han and Tang dynasties, the official kiln porcelain, as long as there is a little flaw, must be broken, the palace can not be used, can not be passed on to the people, this is also since the Song Dynasty in the past dynasties handed down fine porcelain, extremely rare and precious main reason.

Zhuang Rui's words made Xu Guoqing's eyes gradually brighten, and he began to play with the porcelain pieces that his father dug up from the Cizhou kiln site when he was wearing open crotch pants, and his research on porcelain can be described as extremely profound.

However, for the analysis of human nature, he is too far behind, and now listening to Zhuang Rui say this, Xu Guoqing slowly understood.

"Zhuang Rui, are you saying that when the three-color porcelain was fired in the Tang Dynasty, due to the lack of unified supervision, many flawed three-color pottery figurines were preserved, and my porcelain was perfect, so you saw the flaws, isn't that so?"

Xu Guoqing is also a very smart person, after hearing Zhuang Rui's prompt, after thinking about it a little, he understood the joint in between, it turned out that the perfection he was pursuing had just become a flaw in the eyes of others.

"Yes, that's it, Mr. Li, when you take these three colors to others for identification, are there many people who say that they can't see it accurately?" Zhuang Rui nodded and turned his face towards Li Dali.

"Yes, there are several experts who say that these objects are too perfect......"

What Mr. Li said was true, and several experts couldn't find anything wrong, but they always felt wrong in their hearts, and in the end, they didn't issue an appraisal certificate, only saying that they couldn't see it accurately.

"I understand, this is a loss when the moon is full, and overflow when the water is full......"

Xu Guoqing was a little disappointed, but his face showed an excited look, and he said to Zhuang Rui: "This Han and Tang Dynasty porcelain does not pursue perfection, but I am now studying the Cizhou kiln, Zhuang Rui, you can take a look, can you find out the flaws?"

"What? You've started firing Cizhou kilns now?"

Zhuang Rui was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and dared to love this guy not to play Sancai, but to play the Cizhou kiln of the Song Dynasty, you know, although the Cizhou kiln is a folk kiln, it is the largest folk kiln system in ancient northern China.

Not only the Song Dynasty, but also the Liao, Jinyuan, Ming and Qing dynasties still continue to fire, the firing has a long history, has a strong vitality, and the fine porcelain that has been handed down is also the most.

And by the time of the Southern Song Dynasty, there was also a small part of the Cizhou kiln, which was specially fired for the Southern Song Dynasty court, so the price of the Cizhou kiln porcelain circulating on the market is not lower than the market price of the remaining Song official kiln porcelain.

"Yes, it's a pity that my embryos are ready, but I don't have the money to burn them......"

Xu Guoqing's originally excited face suddenly collapsed, you must know that the firing process of antique porcelain is the most important link, and the firing time may be as long as half a month, and the charcoal consumed is a big expense.

Unlike the ceramic plates we use now, the embryos are thrown into the furnace and fired directly with coal, and the whole computer is automatically fired.

And Xu Guoqing's modern antique kiln, although it can also use a computer to control the temperature, but this guy is now exhausted, let alone buying charcoal, even the electricity is almost unaffordable.

"Open the door, open the door quickly......"

Just when Zhuang Rui wanted to take a look at the porcelain embryo made by Xu Guoqing first, there was a faint sound of calling from the door, and the wolf dog also barked.

"Mr. Zhuang, you talk, I'll go out and have a look......"

In Xu Guoqing's place, Yu Zhengjun can be regarded as half a master, he knows that Xu Guoqing will have a headache with funds, and he will definitely not take the initiative to open the door.
