Chapter 181: Hanging Robe and Strong Jar
"Huh?" Tang Yi and Hu Feng looked at each other, both a little surprised. Before Hu Feng could speak, Hu Wencheng said: "You know all the elders here, say hello and take a seat..."
When Hufeng said hello, Tang Yi suddenly noticed that Hu Wencheng and Hufeng's eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar, and thought, could it be ······
After Hu Feng sat down, Hu Wencheng asked the waiter to start serving the hot dishes. After a few main dishes were served, the waiter poured a glass of white wine for each person, and poured red wine for Ouyang Yunyan.
Tang Yi had no intention of going to see any wine and food at this time, thinking that if Hu Feng and Hu Wencheng had a special relationship, wouldn't it be a show-stealing show if he came here by himself?
And Hu Feng was also thoughtful, the key is that he has already seen Tang Yi's strength, if the Tibetan Association only absorbs one person this time, wouldn't it be very dangerous? Even if you can absorb two more people and appraise treasures with Tang Yi, the pressure is too great.
"Since I have been the main escort, then I will say a few words first. As the saying goes, the back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, we old people are fortunate to meet two young talents today, today's first glass of wine, then do it for the old and new parties..."Hu Wencheng raised his glass and drank it all.
The sentence is vague and there is no promise. But Tang Yi and Hu Feng both understood very well that this was not an official gathering of the Tibetan Association, to put it bluntly, it was a dinner, although it was a dinner attended by the leaders of the Tibetan Association. Since it's a dinner, there's no need to promise anything.
Although there is no promise, if you don't pass the exam at today's dinner, there is no way to join. Before the school exam, I won't say it too clearly. The results of the school examination are the basis of commitment.
Everyone toasted. Ouyang Yunyan only took a sip of red wine, and everyone didn't say much, ma'am.
"President Hu is virtuous and does not shy away from relatives, I have seen the level of Xiao Hu, and he is definitely the best among young people. Tang Yi's reputation has also been very big in the past two days... Listening to Qin Lao, his skills are quite profound. Wu Xianmin put down his wine glass, praised each of them, and made this matter a little more clear by the way.
Tang Yi didn't make a sound, just glanced at Qin Lao.
Elder Qin then said, "Let me introduce it again, the main thing is to let the two young people have a number of each other. Tang Yi is a student of Fang Chengke and Fang Lao, and now he has opened an antique shop by himself. Hu Feng is the nephew of President Hu, a top student of Yenching University, who used to work in Baorong Zhai, and now returns to Shanzhou and is preparing to build an art brokerage company. ”
Qin Lao gave Tang Yi the hat of an old Fang student, although it was a bit far-fetched, but it was not a lie after all.
No wonder Hu Wencheng and Hu Feng are somewhat similar, it turns out that the two are uncles and nephews.
Hu Wencheng smiled, "No unit or organization can avoid spitting out the old and accepting the new." This year, there are a few fewer people in the Tibetan Association, especially Mr. Wang, the director of the association, who died of illness at a young age, which makes me very sad. I don't dare to be a virtuous person, if Hufeng is not my nephew, how can I know him and introduce him? From this point, he has an advantage over the others. However, it's not up to me to decide what I'm capable of..."
"Please advise the seniors..."Hufeng stood up and bowed. The reason why he didn't toast was because the public drink of the main escort and the deputy escort had not yet been finished.
Then, everyone began to eat and talk. It's all anecdotes in the collecting world, but Tang Yi listens to them with relish. During the banquet, Hu Feng and Tang Yi also glanced at each other a few times, but neither spoke to each other. It wasn't until the three glasses of wine of the main escort were finished and the deputy escort toasted two more glasses of wine that Hu Wencheng spoke to everyone again.
"After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food, we are a Tibetan Association, we have to have a few things to help the fun..."After Hu Wencheng finished speaking, he beckoned to the waiter.
In the middle of this old mahogany round table, a round piece of white turquoise was inlaid with a blank roof, and there was no wine or food. After a while, two waiters, one on the left and one on the right, one holding a jar more than a foot high, and the other guarding the side, carefully placed it in the turquoise area in the center of the round table.
"Porcelain mouth..."At this time, Gu Zhizai, who had not spoken much, glanced at Hu Wencheng intentionally or unintentionally.
Tang Yi observed the words and looks, and combined with the situation of Hufeng going to Doukou, he understood that porcelain mouth is the specialty of Hu's uncle and nephew.
In fact, for this dinner, a total of three things were prepared, except for Qin Lao and Hu Wencheng, the other three prepared one thing each, and they didn't know each other. This porcelain jar was prepared by Wu Xianmin. Qin Lao and Hu Wencheng didn't prepare anything, because one of them recommended a person, so they had to avoid suspicion appropriately.
This jar is special because it is covered in red paint.
In special eras, in order not to be "broken", it is very common to use this method to protect antiques. The antique industry has a special term for this, called "hanging robe".
Although it is "hung in a robe", the shape of the jar can still be seen, this jar is relatively thick, in the shape of a high cylinder, with a slightly larger abdomen, and a large lid similar to a teacup lid on it. This type of vessel is called a strong pot, but it is appropriate, the shape is indeed very strong, and the whole is like a strong man.
Zhuang jar was first seen in the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, which was originally used to hold bamboo chips, and later gradually assumed more ornamental functions. The style of antiquity prevailed in the three dynasties of the Qing Dynasty, so there were many imitations, especially during the Qianlong period, and a large number of imitations appeared.
The jar was covered in red paint, so it was impossible to tell whether it was blue or pastel, but it showed a white foot. Looking through it, sure enough, there is a six-character blue and white seal book of the Qianlong year of the Qing Dynasty. This kind of antique is a "Ming imitation", imitating the type of the previous dynasty, but it falls into the style of the current dynasty.
"Hanging robes and strong jars." Breathe the wind blurted out. Because it's not a very formal competition, there is no specific order, and there is no design for the other person to avoid when someone says it.
In this case, it is said that it is a loss first, because what is said first is also a basis for identification, and what is said later can be used for reference. Hufeng dared to say it first, which shows that he is indeed very confident in porcelain.
This thing, a relatively normal thing, is difficult to identify, first of all, the glaze and color of the red lacquer part cannot be judged.
"This is a blue and white jar from the Qianlong official kiln..."After Hufeng got started, he gently put the lid on the table, then held the mouth of the can with one hand, and the bottom of the can with the other hand and said: "There is no problem with the bottom foot." Judging from the part of the glaze exposed on the side, it is the characteristic of blue and white glaze. In terms of weight, there will be no problem with the quality of the tire. ”
Everyone sitting here was a little moved.
I can't see the ornamentation, but from the little glaze that is exposed, I am sure that it is blue and white, and this hand is not something that ordinary experts can do...
Hu Wencheng showed a slight smug look, nodded slightly, and then looked at Wu Xianmin again. It is said that Tang Yi didn't say anything at this time, so Wu Xianmin shouldn't have spoken, Hu Wencheng looked at Wu Xianmin, and it was not the meaning of communication, but more of a kind of show, showing off the ability to identify the wind.
Unexpectedly, Wu Xianmin suddenly opened his mouth.
