Chapter 346: Underglaze Green Dragon
"What?" Sun Zhongyuan didn't react a little.
"I've been looking for Dai Jiutian. Chen Danyang continued, "He is the key to this matter, but unfortunately, he doesn't seem to believe me." But it's not completely out of the ordinary. ”
Only then did Sun Zhongyuan understand, "What do you mean, are you going undercover?"
"Yes, but he arranged for me to go undercover with you. Chen Danyang continued.
Sun Zhongyuan nodded, "He should be the only one who knows the power of the ban under Funiu Yongzhen, but he will definitely not tell you." You can only come to me first, and take one step at a time. ”
Chen Danyang smiled, "It's good if you understand." Dai Jiutian's side, I will keep an eye on it at any time, and I will also leak some of your information to him. On your side, in addition to what you have to do, the most important thing is to participate in the study of the Celestial Star Hunt and the Xuanyuan Star Chart. ”
"Good. Sun Zhongyuan said, "Since you have set it up, just do as you say, the two of us will work closely together in Funiuyong Town, and we will not interfere with each other if we are busy with our own things." ”
This sentence has a bit of a deep meaning. Because Chen Danyang has already said that this is what he will do next. But Sun Zhongyuan said that they had to be busy.
"You seem to have something to say. Chen Danyang didn't hold back.
"I just feel that there may be someone behind you, but there should be no malice. Sun Zhongyuan replied.
In fact, this feeling of his was suddenly generated when the two were communicating, and there was no evidence.
"Okay, since we don't interfere with each other, then we won't discuss it. Chen Danyang said with a smile.
Sun Zhongyuan patted Chen Danyang on the shoulder, "Let's go, since you're here, let's take a look in the scenic spot!"
The two walked to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda scenic spot together.
The Big Wild Goose Pagoda can be entered to visit, and after the two of them entered, they kept climbing the stairs and had nothing to say. Coming out of the tower, Sun Zhongyuan suddenly asked, "Has anyone told you that you have a backbone in the back of your head?"
Chen Danyang was stunned for a moment, then smiled instead, "Didn't Mr. Sui Dongchen say it?"
Sun Zhongyuan didn't say yes, and he didn't say no.
"My grandfather said that. I might as well tell you that it's not actually a reverse bone, but a strange bone, so I won't talk about the specifics. And, even if it is, you don't have to worry, the reason why I made it clear first is that I don't want to dwell on it too much. Our current cooperation is limited to the town of Funiu Yongzhen. ”
Sun Zhongyuan looked at Chen Danyang, and Chen Danyang also looked at Sun Zhongyuan.
Suddenly, the two looked at each other and laughed.
"Forget it, let's go to the antique market together. Chen Danyang stopped laughing, "Then eat a meal in the evening." ”
In fact, there was originally an antique city near the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and there were stalls on Saturdays, and there were still a lot of people. However, it was not Saturday, and the two entered the antique city.
This antique city is not big or small, but the popularity inside is not high, and there are many shops after walking through it.
The two of them were in a lack of interest, and Sun Zhongyuan simply said, "While it's still afternoon, let's go to Muslim Street, right? ”
Chen Danyang nodded in agreement.
Muslim Street is a collective name for a number of streets, during which a large number of specialty food shops are gathered. Among them, there is a small street called Huajue Lane, and there are many antique shops, which is regarded as an antique street.
Sun Zhongyuan was full of wine and food at noon, but Chen Danyang didn't eat because he was thinking about something, and when he arrived at Muslim Street, the smell of the street was full, and he was hungry. Before visiting Huajue Alley, he bought two baked buns, wrapped them in paper bags, and ate them while strolling, the mutton inside was very fat, and his mouth was full of oil.
Passing by a shop, a woman in her thirties was in front of the store. Chen Danyang had just taken the last bite of the bun in his mouth, his cheeks were bulging, and he looked a little funny. The woman couldn't help but smile.
"Yes. Chen Danyang also smiled at the woman, "The proprietress welcomes us, let's go to this store first." ”
The proprietress listened, "Welcome, welcome." ”
Sun Zhongyuan sighed, "Do you look at beautiful women, or do you go shopping?"
Chen Danyang didn't answer Sun Zhongyuan, entered the store, and asked, "Boss, you are a local, right?"
"No, I'm from Mizhi, and my husband and I rent a shop here to do business. The proprietress replied, "Which of the two is better?"
"Mizhi's mother-in-law Suide's Han is worthy of her name. Chen Danyang said, "Let's take a look first." ”
The things in this store are mainly jade, and there are a lot of real things, but there are no big pieces, most of them are small pieces, among which there are many agate rings and crystal rings.
Sun Zhongyuan looked at it in general and was not interested, but in the corner, he handed out a large bowl with a green dragon pattern.
This is a piece of underglaze porcelain, among the porcelain, the underglaze color is most common in glaze red and blue and white, this underglaze green color, it is really not easy to see.
This big bowl is very regular, the carcass is relatively white, the glaze is quite fat, there is no decoration outside, but the center of the bowl is a green dragon pattern.
The five-clawed dragon has a single green line on the periphery, and there is no extra ornamentation, but the dragon is very imposing. This momentum carries a kind of fierceness.
The bottom of the bowl is not settled. Moreover, this bowl looks quite new.
"Boss, this bowl is an old thing, right?" Sun Zhongyuan asked after reading it.
"My husband said it was from the Qing Dynasty. ”
Sun Zhongyuan said secretly, this is too vague, it sounds like this boss lady must not understand, and his husband doesn't seem to understand. There were many in the Qing Dynasty, and there were things with underglaze green color during the Kangxi period; after Kangxi, there were also things that fired white ground green color in successive dynasties, but it was not this kind of quite pure underglaze green color.
Sun Zhongyuan thought about it for a while, and simply asked, "Forget it, I won't get to the bottom of it, I just think it's beautiful, what is the minimum?"
"If you want sincerely, just give me five thousand!" the proprietress was very simple.
When Sun Zhongyuan heard this, he was so happy in his heart, the asking price was so low?
Chen Danyang stared at the green dragon pattern bowl, and wanted to interject, but after looking at Sun Zhongyuan's eyes, he couldn't help but speak. Sun Zhongyuan then talked to the proprietress about the price, but as a result, he didn't tell a penny!
It turned out that the proprietress was really thinking in her heart, and she was going to make a deal at a fixed price.
"Okay, take it!" Sun Zhongyuan responded.
After paying the money, the proprietress also took a brocade box and put it into a handmade coarse cloth craft bag. This craft bag is also sold in the store, thirty-one, which is considered a gift.
Chen Danyang asked to come in, but he didn't buy anything, and after looking at it for a while, the two said goodbye and left.
"What kind of good thing is this?" Walking out of the store and walking more than ten meters, Chen Danyang immediately asked. After all, he didn't understand.
"This is the Zhengde official kiln of the Ming Dynasty!" Sun Zhongyuan said, "The underglaze green color dragon pattern, there are plates, there are bowls, there are beginning to be in the Chenghua period, Zhengde craftsmanship is the best, after Jiajing, it is gone!"
"Huh? Such a good thing, she still said from the Qing Dynasty?"
