After these days of training, Jiang Li has matured a lot, and naturally he will not be frightened by Su Guanliu, so he smiled and said unhurriedly: "Since we have come to ask the master for advice, we naturally have to tell the truth." Truth be told, this porcelain was handed down from my great-grandfather's generation. ”

Su Guanliu had a questioning expression: "Classmate Jiang really didn't deceive the old man when he said this?" According to my limited written records, I can verify that this 'Qingming Shanghe Tuqiu bottle' was given to a waiter by Zhu Zhanji of Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, and this waiter is not surnamed Jiang, since then, this bottle has never appeared in the world, how can it suddenly become the heirloom of your Jiang family? ”

Jiang Li looked ignorant and said, "I don't quite understand what Master Guanliu said. I just heard my grandfather say that this bottle was brought by my great-grandmother, whose maiden name was Wang, and she was a famous family in the capital in the last years of the Qing Dynasty. Later my great-grandmother passed it on to my grandmother, who in turn passed it on to my mother; My sister was diagnosed with a heart attack some time ago, and the family had no money for treatment, so my mother asked me to take out this bottle and ask the connoisseur how much it was worth. ”

Shen Miaoyan was ignorant of the origin of the bottle, and thought that what Jiang Li said was true, and frowned after hearing it, and blamed: "Jiang Li, you are really right, your sister needs to spend money when she is sick, why don't you squeak?" Anyway, I can help too! ”

Lin Yunuo almost laughed out loud, and said in his heart that you are a Jiang Li, you lie without revealing a drop of water, and it is very in line with the objective situation, it is really getting more and more powerful!

Su Guanliu nodded silently when he heard this, and fell into a short period of contemplation. He didn't say what the surname of this squire was just now, but Jiang Li pointed out his great-grandmother's surname Wang, and said that his great-grandmother's family was a famous family in the capital, so it was logical to think that it was probably the Wang family's daughter who married the daughter and married this bottle as a dowry to the Jiang family, so that now it has become an heirloom of the Jiang family.

As for why the Wang family is so big, Su Guanliu guessed that maybe the Wang family was very rich at that time and didn't care about a single porcelain, so they generously took it as a dowry. The second possibility is the late Qing Dynasty. In the early years of the country, the antiques at that time were not as popular as they are now, so they did not have much value, so the elders of the Wang family took it as a dowry; In addition, Su Guanliu could no longer find a reasonable explanation, but he didn't know that it was just a lie that Jiang Li had come up with.

Seeing that Su Guanliu had been deceived by himself, Jiang Li was a little proud, and asked reverently, "What?" Does the master think I'm lying? ”

"Oh, not really, I'm wondering how to tell you about the origin of this vase!" Su Guanliu collected his thoughts, coughed, and said with a straight face.

He didn't gain anything from this conversation just now, at least from Jiang Li's mouth, it was found that her sister had a heart attack and was anxiously waiting for the news of using money, which was undoubtedly very good for him. Su Guanliu believes that as long as things can be solved with money, it is not a problem, so he has greater confidence in being able to buy this bottle.

Su Guanliu took off her reading glasses and talked seriously: "The origin of this bottle is a long story, so I'll talk to you briefly." As you all know, the Qingming Shanghe Picture is a masterpiece of the Southern Song Dynasty painter Zhang Zeduan, which he dedicated to the emperor of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Ji. ”

"This Zhao Ji can't be the emperor, but he is very talented in calligraphy and painting, and some of his calligraphy and paintings are still very valuable. This Zhao Ji looked at Zhang Zeduan's tribute's 'Qingming Riverside Map' and liked it very much. But he was a little unconvinced, so he personally copied a picture of the Qingming River, although it was a copy, but it was not exactly the same. ”

"Zhao Ji painted a total of four 'Qingming Riverside Pictures', depicting the four seasons of Bianjing, summer, autumn and winter, of course, only a part of Zhang Zeduan's original picture. After the painting, Zhao Ji felt that it was still not as good as Zhang Zeduan's original drawing, and at this time a eunuch suggested to him, saying that it was better to burn it into a porcelain bottle, which could not only improve the value of the painting, but also pass it on from generation to generation. ”

So Zhao Ji found Jing Shi, the best ceramicist of the dynasty, and ordered him to burn his four paintings into four porcelain bottles. This Jingshi is one of the few famous craftsmen in the history of Chinese ceramics, at that time was the person in charge of the 'Ru kiln', under the joint efforts of him and Song Huizong, this group of 'Qingming Shanghe Tu porcelain vase group' officially came out, known as the spring bottle, summer bottle, autumn bottle, winter bottle. ”

Later, the Jin Wushu invaded the south, the shame of Jingkang occurred, the second emperor of Huiqin was captured, and the spring and summer bottles in this group of porcelain were also taken away by the Jin. And the autumn and winter bottles are nowhere to be found. After a few hundred years, the autumn bottle and the winter bottle appeared in the palace of the Ming Dynasty, and was rewarded by Zhu Zhanji of Xuanzong of the Ming Dynasty to Wang Boyong, the squire of the Ministry of Works, who had contributed to resisting the floods of the Yellow River, and after that, the world has never seen this group of porcelain. The bottle that Jiang is holding now is 100% the autumn bottle in this group of porcelain bottles. ”

After listening to Su Guanliu's explanation, Shen Miaoyan couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and couldn't imagine that a group of inanimate porcelain had such a tortuous encounter in the magnificent history, and said with emotion: "The emperor Lao'er painted it himself, and the famous craftsman personally fired it, and it came from the world-famous Ru kiln, presumably this bottle is priceless, right?" ”

Jiang Li didn't say anything, except that he didn't know the story of the origin of this porcelain vase during the Song Dynasty Huizong, and he knew it clearly when he was given to Wang Boyong by Ming Xuanzong, and he also knew the story that Su Guanliu didn't know.

Jiang Li lowered his head and carefully looked at the porcelain on the table, only to see that the picture was indeed a picture of the Qingming River, and the characters on the bottle were lifelike, but the whole theme was the autumn scenery, there were scattered fallen leaves in many places, the branches of the trees were depressed, and there were flocks of geese flying south in the sky.

After listening to Shen Miaoyan's words, Su Guanliu said ambiguously: "Well, what you said is indeed good, girl. Logically speaking, the emperor painted it himself and fired it by a famous craftsman, and this porcelain must be priceless. But because he's a group, if you open it and sell it individually, you'll have to discount it a lot......" he said, shaking his head constantly.

Jiang Li had long expected him to say this, and asked with a smile: "Even if it will be discounted, there must be a price, right?" Judging from Master Guanliu's many years of experience, how much is this set of 'Qingming Shanghe Picture Bottles' worth? How much is this autumn bottle worth? ”

Su Guanliu pondered for a moment and stretched out a finger.

"Ten million?"

Shen Miaoyan asked with infinite surprise, she writes a book for a year, and as the best-selling novel writer in China, she can only get tens of millions of royalties in a year, this small bottle is worth so much money, is there any reason!

Jiang Li didn't say anything, picked up the porcelain from the table in front of Su Guanliu, and said, "Ten million is really a lot, but I don't plan to sell it." Today, I am grateful for the guidance of Master Guanliu. It's not too early to bother anymore, so we'll take our leave. ”

Su Guanliu originally wanted to wait for Jiang Li to pay back the price, but he didn't expect this kid to pick him up and leave, and he was so careless that he almost snatched it from Jiang Li's hands in distress.

Hurriedly got up and stopped: "Didn't classmate Jiang just say that he was in a hurry to use the money to see your sister's doctor?" If you think that the price of decay is not suitable, let's discuss it again, the price is negotiable, easy to discuss...... Don't be so reckless, there is a lot of money in the world, but if this masterpiece is broken, there will be no more. I think you are heavy-handed, young man, and you are not suitable for keeping antiques, and this bottle is undoubtedly in your hands. The old man can't bear to see the heavenly things ruined, so you should sell it to the old man at a price! ”

Seeing that Su Guanliu was so distressed about the antiquities that he almost robbed them with him regardless of his identity, Jiang Li had more ideas in his heart. The surname Suo pinched the mouth of the bottle with one hand, and said with a look of indifference: "Hey, although it was painted by the emperor and burned by a famous craftsman, it is just a bottle, and it is still not as good as steamed buns to fill your stomach in the year of the great wilderness." If Mr. Guanliu really likes it, you can honestly make a price, and if it is appropriate, I will consider whether I should sell it to you! ”
