"What are you looking at so seriously?" Ouyang Xiaodan was also taken aback by Zhang Tianyuan, she didn't expect Zhang Tianyuan's reaction to be so big, and couldn't help asking.

"I'm looking at this plum bottle, what if it breaks?" Zhang Tianyuan sighed, lowered his voice and said, "What if it's falsely accused?"

Ouyang Xiaodan stuck out his tongue, but too, you have to be careful in the ceramic shop, if you break someone else's things, and people ask for the price, then it will be too late for you to cry.

"Little brother, come in and take a look, no one has cared about that plum bottle for a long time, and the things in it are better than that. The shopkeeper didn't seem to care about the plum bottle, because even if it was sold, it wouldn't be worth a few dollars, and he just wanted to recruit Zhang Tianyuan to see other more valuable things.

"Mu Ying, Xiao Dan, you two just walk around this store, greet me when you see something you like, I'll take a look at this bottle." Zhang Tianyuan thought that the shopkeeper was troublesome, so he wanted Mu Ying and Ouyang Xiaodan to drag the shopkeeper down, and then take his time to appreciate the plum bottle to see if it was real or fake.

Mu Ying nodded, and went into the store to see, the shopkeeper went over to greet him very enthusiastically, but Ouyang Xiaodan did not leave, but stood there curiously looking at the plum bottle in Zhang Tianyuan's hand.

Zhang Tianyuan didn't care about him, but squatted there and looked at it carefully.

The size of this plum vase is almost exactly the same as the one in the Stone Town Museum, no wonder most people will treat it as an imitation, and they don't care at all, after all, the plum vase in the Stone Town Museum has a very complicated experience, much more complicated than the experience of "Guiguzi Descending the Mountain Big Jar".

1950 year. Muying's tomb was stolen, and this blue and white plum vase is one of the stolen cultural relics. And was quickly sold. According to Mr. Wang Yin, a senior cultural relics expert at that time, at that time. Someone near Xinjiekou was peddling a large porcelain bottle. Coincidentally, this scene was seen by Chen Xinmin, a collector who opened an antique shop at the time and worked at the Stone Town Cultural Relics Company after liberation. As soon as Chen Xinmin saw it, he recognized that it was a plum bottle and knew that this thing was not simple.

Chen Xinmin was overjoyed.

At that time, he judged that this was porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty, so he asked the man where he got it from and how much it cost. When the man saw Chen Xinmin recognizing the goods, he began to bargain. Treasures are hard to come for. Fleeting. Chen Xinmin finally bought it for five gold bars, of course, there is also a saying that it cost ten gold bars, but in fact, it doesn't matter anymore, the important thing is that this thing is in his hands.

Later, after the identification of cultural relics experts, this plum bottle is a first-class national treasure and named "plum bottle". At present, it is collected in the Stone City Museum, which is the "treasure of the town hall" of the museum. One of the three unique porcelain in China.

The experts have identified it like this, and everyone will naturally think that the museum is real, and then when they see something else outside, they will be suspicious. Even when he saw the pattern, he directly decided that it was fake, and even Zhang Tianyuan thought so at the beginning. But he likes to go the other way around, and others think it's fake. He had to look at it to discover the subtlety of the composition.

"Brother Tianyuan. What does the picture on this mean?" asked Ouyang Xiaodan.

"Oh, this is called 'Xiao He Yuexia chasing Han Xin', which is a story that happened at the end of Qin. Zhang Tianyuan explained: "Han Xin was a famous general at the end of Qin, he first defected to Xiang Yu, but he was not reused, and turned to Liu Bang, and only became a petty official in charge of grain. Later, Prime Minister Xiao He happened to meet Han Xin, and found that Han Xin was very talented during the conversation, so he repeatedly recommended Han Xin to Liu Bang, but he was not adopted. Han Xin saw that Liu Bang refused to reuse him, so he decided to leave. After learning the news of Han Xin's departure, Xiao He was very anxious, and he didn't bother to report to Liu Bang, so he personally rode on a horse and led people to chase Han Xin overnight. Many people thought that Xiao He wanted to go to Xiang Yu, which made Liu Bang also very angry. Xiao He finally caught up with Han Xin and persuaded him back. After that, Xiao He officially recommended Han Xin to Liu Bang and said that if he wanted to seize the world, he had to use Han Xin. Under Xiao He's strong advice and persuasion, Liu Bang finally adopted Xiao He's Jianyi Feng Han Xin as the general. Han Xin really lived up to expectations, repeatedly rescued Liu Bang, and was later named the Marquis of Huaiyin. ”

"Is this thing worth anything? I think it's all broken, and I can't buy it back and raise flowers." Ouyang Xiaodan tilted his head and said.

Ouyang Xiaodan belongs to that kind of pure layman, so when she looks at porcelain, the first thing she looks at is whether it is bad or not, if it is broken, then she will not be of much interest.

"Little girl, you can't say that, although it is true that there is a little crack on it, and it has been repaired, but if this porcelain vase is bought cheaply, it is still possible to raise flowers. And this is a high-quality and high-quality imitation in the absolute sense, which can achieve the effect of being fake. "It looks like the owner has been brainwashed by the customers who come here and thinks it's a high-quality imitation.

"If it's broken, it's broken, and if it's broken, it's meaningless. "Although Ouyang Xiaodan is a layman, he doesn't know anything.

"Hehe, the little girl wants to buy the real thing, we have it in the store, you see this jar, that is the thing in the Qianlong period, but the lid is missing, and there is a sky-high rush on the back of the jar, and there are no other shortcomings, but it is genuine." The shopkeeper pointed to a jar on the shelf.

Zhang Tianyuan looked in the direction of the shopkeeper's finger, it was indeed a jar that looked a little broken, the so-called sky-high chong, that is, there was a crack from head to toe, plus it was not covered, if a jar was not covered, it was worth less than half.

If it is a jar in the Qianlong period, it should not be worth a few dollars.

"How much did you buy this jar?" Zhang Tianyuan asked, he began to use his own method of asking the price again, seemingly interested in the jar, but in fact he was just asking for a cover, and wanted to buy the plum bottle under his feet.

This is also a common method used by antique buyers, without revealing their true intentions, it is conducive to buying better things at a very cheap price.

"I bought it for five thousand yuan, if you want it, little brother, I can calculate it cheaper for you, how about seven thousand?" the shopkeeper smiled.

"Didn't I say it, boss, your jar isn't worth that much money, it looks like no one has been there for a long time. It's similar to the fate of this plum bottle, 7,000 yuan is too much. Zhang Tianyuan said casually.

That's what he said. But in my heart, I was thinking that the jar should not be something from the Qianlong period. Because the pigment used should be "Su Ma Liqing", which is a typical characteristic of the early Ming Dynasty.

The flowers and birds on the porcelain, the landscape, are all painted with paint, just like we use ballpoint pens, pens, brushes to write and paint, the effect is different, this Su Ma Liqing is such a pigment. With this kind of blue and white material, Zhang Tianyuanleng moved the age of this porcelain from the Qianlong period to the early Ming Dynasty, which is three hundred years in between.

Su Ma Liqing's pigment is too distinctive, and it can never be something from the Qianlong period.

Su Ma Liqing is imported from overseas, from the Yuan Dynasty to the early Ming Dynasty, Hongwu, Yongle, Xuande porcelain are all made of this kind of green material, this imported thing. At that time, not everyone could use it, there was a specific circle, the royal family. That is, the porcelain fired by the official family can be separated from the green with Su Ma, and when it comes to Ming Chenghua, this kind of green material is scarce and precious. It is rare to see it anymore, and they all switch to domestic green materials to fire porcelain. In order to achieve the effect of Su Ma Liqing's firing, he tried all kinds of ways to imitate it. Especially in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty.

But even so, it can't achieve the original effect, so Zhang Tianyuan is sure that if the Su Ma Liqing pigment is real, then this jar should definitely be porcelain from tomorrow morning.

And take 10,000 steps back and say, even if this is really an imitation, but the imitation of the official kiln during the Qianlong period, it is not cheap at all, the emperor Qianlong likes it, and it must be the court to pay for it, and the top masters in the country have been summoned to handle this matter, do you say that the things he imitated can be the same as the imitation of the small workshop?

Of course not! The imitation of the official kiln is very valuable.

He put down the plum bottle in his hand, seemingly casually put it in its original position, but in fact he was very careful, and then walked to the front of the jar and looked at it carefully for a while, in addition to the pigment of Su Ma Liqing, this jar was analyzed from the tire, and it was not a tire made of kaolin in the Qing Dynasty, it was a tire made of macang soil in the early Ming Dynasty.

Macang soil and kaolin are produced in the Jingdezhen area of Jiangxi, from the Yuan Dynasty to the Ming Wanli period, the porcelain fired by the government are made of Macang soil as raw materials, to the middle of Wanli, the literature has not found the record of Macang soil mining, Macang soil is used up, replaced by kaolin, Macang soil made of porcelain, the fetus is loose, there are many impurities, it does not look very white, and the porcelain fired out of kaolin, the fetal quality is pure white, clean, and there are few impurities, this jar because there are obvious cracks, so as long as you are a little more careful, it is easy to see clearly。

From the blue and white material, fetal quality, Zhang Tianyuan can basically judge that this jar is not the Qianlong period, but an official kiln Zhuang jar in the Ming Dynasty, in fact, only to see the difference between blue and white material and fetal quality, which is not easy for most antique players, but it is not an impossible thing, as long as you are careful, you can also see that this is only 40% of the judgment.

Zhang Tianyuan is now very familiar with ceramics, even if he doesn't know the trick of identifying words, with his eyesight and experience, he can make some more detailed judgments.

He gently picked up the jar, and then looked at the bottom of the jar in the sun, because of the light in the bottom, it is commonly known as the bottom of the moon in the antique shop. Zhang Tianyuan can be considered in several aspects, this is a jar of Ming Chenghua!

In the Qing Dynasty Wang Tang's "New Knowledge", the Ming Chenghua porcelain is determined to be the first of the official kilns of the past dynasties, one is the Chenghua porcelain is exquisite, the moon bottom is one of its characteristics, the most important thing is that you put the Chenghua porcelain in a place with a light source to see, its porcelain will appear in the flesh red, just like the flesh red of the baby's skin, this flesh red, to the future imitation of the Ming Chenghua porcelain masters left a historical problem, even now, with modern high-tech means are difficult to imitate.

In fact, the characteristics of Ming Chenghua porcelain are very obvious, if you are willing to learn, as long as you are serious, it is not difficult to judge, because modern high technology can not be imitated, so there is almost no need to worry about imitations, but it is a pity that many antique collectors are now high-eyed masters, want to make money, but are not willing to learn some of the most basic knowledge, which is difficult to do.

"Boss, give me a real price, how much can I buy it?" Zhang Tianyuan asked.

"At least it can't be less than five thousand, this is my cost price, I don't want to lose. The shopkeeper gritted his teeth and said.

In fact, don't say five thousand, even if it is two or three thousand, it is estimated that the owner of this shop will sell it, after all, even he regretted buying this thing there. (To be continued......)
