Lin Muyu turned around and asked, "Did you find anything?"

"Shhhh Tang Feng suppressed the surprise in his heart and motioned to her to speak softly, this shop specializes in ceramic antiques, and there are many onlookers, and it is very lively.

These people are all in front of a stall owner who calls himself Shang Dynasty celadon Dakouzun, although the Shang Dynasty celadon is called porcelain, but it is not porcelain in the real sense, but pottery. Although porcelain evolved from pottery, there are distinct differences between the two.

One of the differences is that the raw materials for firing are different. Clay is used for pottery, and porcelain is made of porcelain clay. Although porcelain clay was also used in pottery during the period of ceramic combination, such as this Shang Dynasty celadon Dakouzun was made of porcelain clay, this is only an early porcelain clay, containing a large number of impurities, and the finished product is closer to pottery.

The second difference is that the sintering temperature is different. The sintering temperature of porcelain is above 1200 degrees, while pottery is generally around 1100 degrees.

The third difference is that the light transmittance is different. Porcelain is more or less transparent, pottery is not transparent at all, this is the most intuitive way to distinguish ceramics.

The fourth difference is that the water absorption rate is different. Porcelain does not absorb water, and a bowl of water is still a bowl of water when placed there, but pottery is absorbent, so a ceramic flower pot is better than a porcelain flower pot because it is breathable and permeable.

There is a formula, from the shape of the value of ceramics to make a distinction, a statue of two bottles and three pots, four washes, five goblets and six cups of furnace, seven plates, eight dishes and nine miscellaneous pieces, ten look at the shape of the age. Zun is the highest value of all the ceramic shapes, there are many types of Zun, this big mouth according to the eyes of people now, and the hospital spittoon is no different.

Tang Feng pretended to wander here, he pointed to the clay pot he liked and asked the stall owner casually, "Boss, can you show me this?"

"Okay!" the stall owner asked without looking back, operating antiques is the same as buying vegetables, the stall owner will put the high-grade items aside, the low-grade items aside, and the processed items aside. Tang Feng's surprise lies in the fact that the stall owner treats this clay pot as a processed product.

Tang Feng reached out and took this clay pot in his hand, which was a narrow-mouthed, thin-necked, pointed-bottom clay pot, shaped like a rugby ball, which was used by ancient people to fetch water. The surface of this clay pot is dark brown, not only old, but also a little mottled, and the checkered patterns on the altar body are also somewhat faded, but the depiction is very clear. He reached out and touched the inside and outside of the pot, and it felt very smooth, and the carved area was even a little shiny.

Tang Feng looked at it for a long time before frowning and said, "Well, this clay pot is a bit bad." Lin Muyu is clear now, Tang Feng said that if he doesn't say well, he wants it, in order to be able to get a low price, then he has to find fault first.

The people over there are all talking about the Shang Dynasty celadon products, none of them have any hope of buying yu, and the stall owner is too lazy to spend it with them, he turned to Tang Feng and said: "I said brother, you get what you pay for, if it is a good thing, I will put it over there? Don't look at this clay pot with unclear decoration and unknown age, maybe it is a national treasure-level cultural relic." ”

The stall owner's selling point is here, the people who play the collection are not poor, and spending a small amount of money to gamble may bring unexpected surprises, especially this pottery that is not even known to be dated. However, some cultural relics dealers just find out what other people are trying to pick up, and specialize in making such half-nible things to deceive people.

Tang Feng shook his head and said, "If this earthen jar is to be regarded as a cultural relic, it is estimated that it will have to wait for a few hundred or even thousands of years." However, this soil has the benefits of soil, this thing should be placed at home, and the cultural atmosphere at home will immediately go up, right?" he also said this to Lin Muyu proudly.

As soon as he said this, everyone looked at him, and then at Lin Muyu, with a look of contempt in their eyes. People who play collection generally think that they are high, cultural people, cultivate a sentiment, and what they want is that leisurely and elegant. Now the national collection is hot, is not everyone has begun to play collecting, just like this dirt bun, I don't understand anything, but also cultural atmosphere, don't you just want to buy this thing to bluff people at home.

"Boss, what's the price of this thing?" Tang Feng won't bother with them, he is happy in his heart at this time, you slowly despise me, look at who doesn't understand anything.

The stall owner said: "If you want it sincerely, I will also offer a real price, 1,608." "This price is black enough, and it is generally stained with the price of six and eight, and it is not a big problem to erase the number behind it.

"Cheng, one thousand six hundred and eight is one thousand six hundred and eight, all the way!" Tang Feng happily accepted the price, and counted the money to pay the bill.

The stall owner's smile was like seeing his rival being hit by a car and dying, it was called a brilliant one, he took the money and took out a cardboard box, put the clay pot in both hands and held it to Tang Feng, and said politely: "You take it, you see that I still have something here, are you ...... again?"

"Hehe, no need. Tang Feng smiled innocently, turned back to Lin Muyu and said, "Let's go." ”

"Hmm. Lin Muyu nodded with a smile and walked with him, everyone was like a handful of salt was stuffed in their eyes, I'm a rich man, I'm top-notch, that is, a farmer entrepreneur, and TM is a tin foil.

After walking a long way, Lin Muyu asked, "Seeing that you are so happy, what kind of treasure is this?"

Tang Feng hugged the cardboard box and said with a smile: "This is hard pottery, which belongs to the category of semi-porcelain and semi-pottery in the ceramic transition period, this kind of pottery is not glazed, but because the temperature is close to 1200 degrees, the surface of the fetal is sintered, producing a luster similar to glaze, which is called natural glaze in academics." ”

Hard pottery is the earliest use of porcelain clay to make embryos of a kind of pottery, because the pottery process at that time was limited by productivity, the porcelain clay residue removal process is not mature enough, contains a large number of impurities, the iron content is high, so the tire color is darker. But it was the use of porcelain clay that led to the later porcelain, and then to China's splendid porcelain culture. The problem of iron content has always been a problem that generations of skilled craftsmen of porcelain have worked hard to overcome, so to speak, the development of porcelain is the process of removing iron from porcelain clay. The higher the iron content, the darker the color of the porcelain, and vice versa, the purer the color, which is why monochrome porcelain has been getting closer and closer to white from ancient times to the present. It was not until the beginning of the Ming Dynasty that the problem of iron content was basically solved, which led to the glory of China's porcelain industry in the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Lin Muyu didn't know much about these, she was more concerned about intuitive feelings, and she asked, "Then how much is this worth?"

Tang Feng said: "If it is well preserved, I am afraid that it will be a million." ”
