Chapter 159: The Origin of the Little Bowl
Ten minutes later, Li Yang gently blew out the candles, and Liu Gang hurriedly ran to open the curtains.
He Lao was already sitting on the chair with emotion, Li Yang was able to pick up the leak and encounter this moon shadow lamp is Li Yang's luck, but also the luck of ancient Chinese culture, although the craft has been lost, but at least there is a complete moon shadow lamp survived, which can verify the wisdom level of ancient Chinese laborers.
"Li Yang, I have a request!" He Lao suddenly sat up straight and looked at Li Yang very seriously.
Li Yang hurriedly shook his head and said, "Old He, don't say that, if there is anything you need me to do, you just ask!" ”
"I want to borrow your three months of this moon shadow lantern to let professionals in this area observe and see if there is a way to restore the magical craftsmanship of the ancestors, but don't worry, I will only let them observe, and there will be absolutely no damage to this lamp!"
He Lao smiled with relief, looked at the moon shadow lamp erected on the side, and said with a sigh: "This is a national treasure, even if there is a little loss, we are all sinners, but fortunately, you found it in time and bought it back!" ”
"It's a trivial matter, He Lao, it doesn't matter if you like to give it to you the Moon Shadow Lantern, let alone three months!"
Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief, he still thought that what was the matter, He Lao was so cautious, it was just borrowing the lamp, and it was really a trivial matter for Li Yang.
Just like Li Yang himself said, if He Lao likes it, it doesn't matter if this lamp is given to He Lao, He Lao has helped him so much, Li Yang has long wanted to find a chance to repay him. Besides, as long as this lamp is not sold, there is no difference between He Lao's hands and his hands, and He Lao's collection has always been directly open to Li Yang.
"I won't ask for your things, I will definitely return you in three months, but I will feel the magic of the moon shadow lantern again when I have the opportunity in the future!" He Lao smiled and shook his head, Li Yang's attitude made him very moved.
"By the way, I have a good thing here that I want you to help you slap the eye!"
Li Yang remembered the pair of small red glazed bowls again, hurriedly walked over and took the bowls, and put them on the desk in front of He Lao.
When he said this, Li Yang suddenly felt a little touched, the first time he saw He Lao, it was Zhang Ying who took him there, and Zhang Ying's first sentence when he saw He Lao seemed to be like this. It's just that he didn't understand what this meant at the time, and now, Li Yang's personal ability in antiques is probably not weaker than Zhang Ying, and his reputation is much stronger than Zhang Ying.
He Lao put on his glasses, saw this pair of red glazed small bowls, was slightly stunned, and subconsciously picked up one of them and put it in front of his eyes to observe carefully.
He Lao picked up the magnifying glass and looked at it again, and after reading it, he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "This red glazed bowl is a bit interesting, but I seem to have seen it somewhere!" ”
"You've seen it, that's great, I thought there was no origin for this strange-shaped thing, it's good to have a history!"
Li Yang exclaimed in surprise, He Lao really didn't disappoint him, as long as He Lao had seen this thing, after finding the origin and being sure that it was porcelain from the Song Dynasty, the value of this pair of red glazed small bowls would be greatly improved.
"Origin?" He Lao frowned slightly, suddenly stood up and walked to the bookcase on the side, opened the locker under the bookcase, and took out a large stack of picture materials from it.
He Lao, who took out the information, did not sit back at the desk, but pulled Li Yang to the sofa together, Li Yang took a look at the stack of materials in He Lao's hand, and there was a big picture on the top, which was actually a dilapidated shipwreck.
After sitting down, He Lao searched intently among these pictures, and in less than two minutes, He Lao suddenly pulled out one of the colored papers the size of two notebook screens.
"Found it, that's it, these pictures were sent to me yesterday, I took a cursory look, I remember that there is this kind of red glazed bowl, and it is really here!"
He Lao's finger pointed vigorously at the colored paper, and Li Yang hurriedly leaned over.
There are supposed to be several photographs on this confetti, one of which has a black wooden box inside, but the box is rotten, and the focus is on the contents of the box.
Inside the box, there are stacks of small red glazed bowls, judging from the photos, these red glazed small bowls are exactly the same as the ones Li Yang bought today.
"Wait, I'll call and ask!"
Looking at this photo, He Lao got up and went to the desk to make a call, while Li Yang carefully observed the colored paper in front of him. Li Yang found that there were several photographs on each piece of colored paper, and each photo had different things, some were broken porcelain, some delicate gold and silver jewelry, and some articles from the ship, but they were all worn.
After a while, He Lao came back after the phone call, and brought the two small red glazed bowls on the desk.
"Li Yang, where did you get this pair of red-glazed bowls?" He Lao put down the small bowl and asked first.
"I went to Liulichang today, and after coming out of Rong Bao Zhai, I saw someone selling this bowl in the antique shop, the antique store did not accept it, I saw that this bowl looked like a red glazed bowl in the Song Dynasty, so I bought them for 10,000 yuan!" Li Yang raised his head and replied slowly, He Lao looked at Li Yang, suddenly shook his head, with a trace of envy on his face, and said: "Your luck, even I can't say, this pair of bowls is indeed a red glazed bowl of the Song Dynasty, and it is not sure which kiln it was fired in, but according to the current inference, it is very likely that it was fired by Jun kiln!" ”
Li Yang was slightly stunned, He Lao began to praise his luck, now looking at it, Li Yang's luck is indeed very good, whether it is the moon shadow lamp or this pair of red glazed small bowls, Li Yang got it one step earlier than others.
"Jun kiln, one of the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty?"
Li Yang couldn't help but pick up one of the red glaze bowls, he had a Ru kiln green glaze pen wash at home, if this pair of small bowls was really fired by Jun kiln, he had two of the five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty.
"That's right, but it's not completely certain yet, and we'll almost know after the technical appraisal!"
He Lao glanced at Li Yang strangely as he spoke.
He Lao has asked very clearly on the phone just now, this kind of red glazed small bowl has just been discovered by the world, and it has never appeared in history.
Moreover, this kind of red glazed small bowl was found in an ancient shipwreck that had just been salvaged from the South China Sea, and there were a total of eighteen identical red glazed small bowls in that shipwreck, but unfortunately seventeen of them were missing, and six of the red glazed small bowls had been completely broken, and only one was really intact.
The origin of the wreck has been partially investigated, it is a merchant ship of a seafarer in the Southern Song Dynasty, this merchant ship mainly runs to Southeast Asia, sometimes to India, and even to the West.
The small red-glazed bowl was a gift from the seafarer for his Western friends, but the merchant ship had an accident and sank in the South China Sea, only to be salvaged from the bottom of the sea two days earlier. In addition to the small red glazed bowls, there are many other fine porcelain, even several that have never been seen in modern times.
According to the current information, it is very likely that there are only twenty such red glazed small bowls in existence, and seventeen of them have been destroyed, and two of the remaining three have actually arrived in Li Yang's hands.
After a while, He Lao sighed again: "If there is no shipwreck, I'm afraid I can't believe that this pair of red glazed bowls must be from the Song Dynasty, but how your pair of red glazed bowls have been passed down needs to be verified slowly."
Li Yang nodded silently, Li Yang understood the meaning of He Lao's words. This pair of red glazed small bowls opened to the Song Dynasty, but in the porcelain left by the Song and Yuan dynasties, this high-tech red glaze has never appeared, so that everyone can't believe that no one dares to say that this is a porcelain bowl of the Song Dynasty without absolute evidence.
Li Yang knows that the red glaze technology originated in the Song Dynasty, according to the modern understanding, the red glaze technology of the Song Dynasty is extremely immature, and it is impossible to burn such a beautiful red glaze bowl.
Lang red glaze only appeared during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, and Lang red glaze represents a peak of ancient red glaze technology, also known as 'ox blood red' or 'chicken blood red', and there are not many Lang red glazes that exist at present.
It is conceivable that the level does not match, the style does not match, or the strange shape that has never appeared, even if such a thing can be seen, but who dares to believe it? Only a person like Li Yang who uses special abilities to accurately determine the dynasty would buy such a thing without hesitation.
"Elder He, or this pair of red glazed bowls will be placed here with you first, and I will come to get it after all its origins are clarified!"
Li Yang thought for a while, looked up and said to He Lao, at this time he already understood that Boss Tong must have seen such a color picture and hurriedly came to collect this pair of small bowls, after all, the wreck has been salvaged for two days, and some people who have methods and news can get the pictures of the wreck.
"It's okay, Lao Huang, that guy should jump on his feet again when he sees these things of yours, haha!"
He Lao thought for a while, then laughed and agreed, Lao Huang was a friend of He Lao, and Li Yang didn't know what Lao Huang's identity was until a long time.
After tossing for a while, it was already past He Lao's lunch break, but He Lao didn't care at all, and returned to the bedroom only after solving the problem of this pair of red glazed small bowls. Li Yang's small bowl and moon shadow lamp were taken to He Lao's collection room by Liu Gang, and the bored Li Yang was also carefully studying He Lao's collection in the collection room.
What Li Yang didn't expect was that his boring behavior of studying was clearly seen by He Lao, and He Lao was more satisfied with Li Yang.
Early the next morning, Li Yang got up, and today he was going to verify the ancient jade for several large auction companies in Yanjing, and after breakfast, He Lao explained to Li Yang alone. Today's ancient jade must be carefully verified, and the appraisal certificate can only be issued after confirming that it is the real ancient jade, this appraisal certificate can have the guarantee of He Lao, and Li Yang's misidentification will ruin more than his personal reputation.
The driver drove out, exactly the same route as yesterday, and after knowing the location of these ancient jades today, Li Yang kept having a wry smile on his face.
