Chapter 307: Tiandu
"This tube is good, old thing. The stall owner was a middle-aged man, and when he saw Sun Zhongyuan looking at it for a while, he spoke.
"When?" Sun Zhongyuan asked as he thought to himself, this thing, the more you look at it, the more it looks like something from the early Qing Dynasty. At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, it was more chaotic, and it was really possible that someone tried to appear this kind of blue and white pen holder for the book.
"It's hard to say, maybe it's the private kiln of the Qing Dynasty, or the things of the eight friends of Zhushan in the Republic of China!" replied the stall owner.
He just said nonsense, can a private kiln be opened casually? There are also eight friends of Zhushan, how can they fall into this kind of money?
"Eight friends of Zhushan?" Chen Danyang looked at Sun Zhongyuan, "These eight people seem to be very famous." ”
Sun Zhongyuan took the opportunity to respond, "The eight friends of Zhushan are not eight people, there are more than a dozen representative figures alone, and the whole group is afraid that there must be dozens of people." This eight is an imaginary number. For example, the eight monsters in Yangzhou are not eight people. ”
The name of Zhushan Bayou is indeed very big, no wonder the stall owner will climb the side club. Of course, this also shows that he didn't understand the pen holder.
Moreover, the creation of Zhushan Bayou is mainly pastel and porcelain panel painting. This is also due to the popular elements from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China.
After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the imperial kiln factory in the porcelain capital was gone, but a group of folk masters who had made a living in the porcelain capital appeared in the past. Although the previous official kilns were exquisite, they were generally strictly limited, which was not conducive to artistic play. Zhushan Bayou began to innovate in porcelain, for example, the previous porcelain figures were all general, and there were no portraits, they did it;
"This should be an ordinary Qing Dynasty kiln, not like what you said. Sun Zhongyuan studied it carefully and could basically conclude it.
However, what he said is half-true, the Qing Dynasty folk kiln is right, but it is by no means an ordinary folk kiln.
This blue and white pen holder should be a folk kiln in the Shunzhi period, and it was made by a master craftsman.
The craftsmen of ancient China have few names, and most of the masters have been annihilated, and only the works have been handed down, but they have not been named. Like Lu Zigang in jade carving, Zhushan Bayou in porcelain, after all, they are very few.
Therefore, this blue and white pen holder, although it is a folk kiln in the Shunzhi period, can be called a fine product.
During the Shunzhi period, the Manchu Qing Dynasty had just entered the customs, and the official kiln had not yet successfully resumed production, so the output was very small and the quality was not high. At present, the main ones that have appeared are the "Shunzhi Year System of the Qing Dynasty" and the "Shunzhi Year System", which are generally blue and white models, and do not have too many characteristics, inheriting the legacy of the Ming Dynasty.
On the contrary, it is the folk kiln that is full of flowers, and even has produced high-quality products. Among them, there are a lot of paragraphs, hall numbers, auspicious words, can be used as the bottom paragraph.
It's just that the bottom of the book is still very rare. Sun Zhongyuan thought that this was mostly caused by the porcelain kiln craftsmen of "Xianyunzhai", which may have been caused by accident.
This kind of knowledge can be handed down and let him see the real thing, which is indeed extremely rare.
"Let's make the lowest price, no matter what period it is, it's beautiful. Sun Zhongyuan said to the stall owner.
This pen holder, like the green lion white elephant copper paperweight obtained before, is also an elegant thing to collect and put on the desk.
The stall owner quoted a price of 6,000. This price, if it is an ordinary Qing Dynasty kiln, is actually high, and the Qing Dynasty kiln has been passed down to the present. Of course, this "more" does not mean like turnip and cabbage, but only relatively.
But this piece is worth 60,000 yuan! Of course, Sun Zhongyuan still fought with the stall owner a few times, and finally won 3,000.
After taking this pen holder, the two of them did not continue shopping. I only took a few things, but I actually had been shopping for an afternoon. The fun of this stall is also reflected in the process, and now it is a little difficult to touch good things.
Back at the hotel, tidying up a little, the four of them went out to eat together in the evening.
Jinguancheng is naturally dominated by Sichuan cuisine, which is spicy. The four of them discussed it and didn't want to eat hot pot, but Chen Danyang liked to eat fish, so the four of them went to a restaurant famous for their watercress fish. The watercress fish is spicy and fragrant, and there are other husband and wife lung slices, back pot meat, mapo tofu, red oil rabbit dice, all spicy; only one dish is not spicy, Dongpo elbow.
After a night's rest, the next morning at eight o'clock, the four of them set off by car.
"What's the name of that village?" got on the highway, Chen Danyang asked the army of drivers.
"Tiandu. ”
Chen Danyang came back to his senses, "A village is actually called by this name! It seems that there is really a possibility of a royal tomb nearby!"
From Jinguancheng to Tiandu, the straight-line distance is nearly 500 kilometers, and most of the distance has high speed, but in the end it is necessary to take ordinary roads. Moreover, when they arrived in the mountains, the road was difficult, and they had a break to eat at noon, and the second half of the journey was not fast. When I arrived at Tiandu Village, it was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon. Almost a day's worth of time was consumed.
The village is not small, and there is more than one inn, as well as taverns and restaurants.
Several people stayed at a hotel with a large courtyard. Parking is available in the courtyard, and the main house inside is a two-story long row of buildings, with a total of about 30 rooms. It's winter, and the room is more than half empty in the off-season.
There are also bungalows on both sides of the main courtyard, one of which is a simple bar and the other is a restaurant.
There are very few dishes in the restaurant, most of them are beef and mutton. For dinner, the four of them asked for half a roast whole sheep, and the taste was acceptable.
After dinner, the four of them left the inn and came to the west side of the village. As the army and Kuroko said, there was an open plateau on the edge of the village, next to a large river. They didn't check which tributary of the river it was, but there was a suspension bridge over the big river that led to the snowy mountains on the west side.
According to what I heard during the previous meal, some people who come to travel will climb the snow-capped mountains. However, the other snow-capped mountains are steep and steep, and only the one closest to the big river can be climbed, because this snow-capped mountain is relatively isolated, there is a road under the mountain, and although the north side is steep, the south side is relatively gentle, which is suitable for climbing.
This snow-capped mountain, in the night, can only see the white snow and the general outline of the summit, like a giant that has been pushed down, with an anticline arm brace.
From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, the visual height is about seven or eight hundred meters, which is significantly shorter than other continuous snow-capped mountains. Of course, this is the visual altitude of the flatland, and the altitude should not be low, and the west side of the river as a whole is obviously higher than the east side.
The banks of this large river are very high, but the water level is very low, and the difference is more than ten meters, which is wider than the width of the river. The drawbridge looks sturdy, with thick chains and smooth planks.
"I look a little bit like flying over the Luding Bridge!" Chen Danyang said with a smile.
"The Luding Bridge is much steeper than this. Sun Zhongyuan lit a cigarette, and the fire was extinguished in the night wind, "I can't see anything at night, let's go over tomorrow to take a look!"
"Okay!" Chen Danyang, Dajun, and Heizi all nodded. On this day, they were indeed tired, so they went back and rested early.
