After Ji Yuan finished speaking, he smiled at Cui Shiyan and said, "Brother Cui, you can also give me a few words." ”

Cui Shiyan did not shirk either, and said: "The carcass of celadon in the north is relatively thick, larger than the southern celadon in shape, and there are more decoration methods, especially the lotus pattern that is greatly influenced by Buddhism, so this piece of porcelain is still relatively distinct from north to south." ”

Ji Xiaofan's face turned slightly red when he heard this, and at the same time he admired Zhao Zhuo even more, Zhao Zhuo's age was not much older than himself, but his eyesight was already able to reach the level of his grandfather and others, and the gap between them was not small.

Not only Ji Yuan and others were discussing, but people from all over the venue were discussing, and the appearance of this Northern Dynasty porcelain also opened the eyes of the judges.

In the end, this Northern Dynasty porcelain outperformed Tong Dongyang's Shuanglong beast ear celadon jar at a price of 6.8 million.

As a result, the dust settled, and Tong Dongyang's face also returned to calm, he was very aware of this uncle's ability, but compared to the total price, he was still the highest, so he was not in a hurry at all.

The second piece of porcelain with 6 million refreshed the highest price, and there was another impulse in the audience, and many viewers saw that the higher the price of porcelain, it can indeed give people more beauty in appearance.

The appearance of this blue glazed lotus petal pattern jar seems to have opened the competition of the contestants, and then several pieces of porcelain have appeared one after another, and the price has also been as high as five million, but this is still a significant gap with the two pieces of porcelain of six million.

During this period, the rest of the Ji family and the Tong family also came to power one after another, but although they are also members of the big family, they are obviously inferior to the Tong family in terms of strength and eyesight, and the collection taken out by the tallest one is also a full one million.

Mo Ling has a great interest in each of the original porcelains on display, after all, in the more than three hundred years she is in, the ancients have not carried out large-scale excavations of ancient tombs, so there are not many primitive celadon they have seen, and now that they have the opportunity to come into contact with so many, they naturally do not let go of one of them.

It didn't take long for Fang Youming to finally come to power.

As Fang Youming, who came up with the imperial pen holder of Emperor Guangxu in the first game, he also received a lot of attention when he appeared.

This time, the things that Fang Youming brought up were still not large items, although the things were not heavy, but the staff carefully moved them to the table.

This special wooden box for the exhibition is very sturdy and easy to disassemble, and the staff is very skilled in removing the box, revealing a black glaze jar inside.

This is a black glaze four-series bird button cover cylinder, but 10cm high, mouth, flat belly, circle foot outward, on the four sides of the shoulder each decorated with a bridge-shaped button to tie the rope, the outer wall is printed with a diamond-shaped brocade grid pattern, the top sculpture of a pair of birds, the mood is lively and lovely, the wings and tail stand opposite each other, lifelike.

The whole utensil is covered with black glaze, the glaze is rich and complete, moist and transparent, the color is black like lacquer, and it is even and flawless.

Before Fang Youming appeared, a bunch of people had already taken out primitive celadon ware such as black porcelain and white porcelain, so the appearance of black porcelain was not surprising.

It's just that as soon as this porcelain was taken out, it surprised everyone, not for anything else, just because this porcelain looks as if it has just been fired out of the kiln, the layer of black glaze is black and new, there is no trace of wear at all, not only that, the whole porcelain seems to be made with a very high precision ruler, the shape is not only upright, the left and right sides are evenly proportioned, and the various parts are also very coordinated, as if drawn by the computer.

The ancients needed to go through various processes to make a piece of porcelain, first of all, to collect porcelain stone and porcelain clay, that is, kaolin, and then to crush and grind the kaolin, and then pour these processed stone and clay porcelain materials into a square or round pottery washing pool for pottery washing, and make it into a clay block, that is, to make porcelain clay.

Then, it is to put the blank mud on the billet making tool, by the craftsmen who have been able to make a variety of utensils to dry, and then carve, scratch, print, paint, sculpture, etc., after the decoration is completed, and then glaze the blank tire, the glaze used in different periods is different, so the glazing methods are also various, there are glaze coating method, glaze blowing method, dipping glaze method, etc., and finally, the blank can be loaded into the sagger bowl can be fired in the kiln.

Looking at the whole process of porcelain firing, it is completely dependent on the experience of the craftsman, and will not be measured with a ruler, let alone a mold to apply.

Therefore, most of the original celadon in addition to the rough glaze, the shape of the vessel is also very irregular, the left point is large, the right side is small, the mouth is crooked, if the form is not beautiful, the picture is rough, the price is naturally not high.

However, this porcelain is different, and its regularity can be described as stunning.

Cui Shiyan couldn't help nodding again and again: "The tire color is brick red, the shape of the vessel is regular, the black glaze is black and no lacquer, what a black porcelain from Deqing kiln." ”

Zhao Zhuo also followed his head: "Don't say that this porcelain is so well preserved, even if it is an ordinary piece of porcelain from the Deqing kiln, the price will not be low." ”

The original celadon span is very long, from Shang Zhou to the period of the Three Kingdoms and the Northern and Southern Dynasties, during this period, there are many kilns used, there are Zhejiang Shangyu, Yuyao and Ningbo, Xiaoshan area of Yue kiln, as well as the Ou kiln in Wenzhou in southern Zhejiang, Wuzhou kiln in Jinhua in Zhejiang, Xiangyin kiln in Hunan Chengguan and so on.

These kilns are all fired celadon, and the original celadon origin of which kiln has always been the focus of debate among experts, generally believe that the Yue kiln or Hongzhou kiln is the birthplace, but the real excavation of the earliest record is the Deqing kiln in Deqing County, Zhejiang.

Deqing kiln is the kiln bed of firing black porcelain and celadon, especially black porcelain, its firing history is not long, from the beginning of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the end of the early Southern Dynasties, a total of more than 100 years, the heyday of the period is shorter, because of its excellent black porcelain is unique, the reputation at that time is not less than that of the Yue kiln, and its fired celadon products represent the highest level at that time.

Ji Xiaofan couldn't help but be surprised: "So, this black glaze jar may still surpass Tong Qizhou's in price?" ”

Zhao Zhuo thought for a moment and said with a smile: "If I were a judge, I should give this black glaze jar a higher price." However, the decision is not in my hands. ”

Ji Xiaofan thought about it and said, "I hope to lower the price of this piece, so that Brother Zhao, your chances of winning will be greater." ”

Zhao Zhuo saw him thinking so much about himself, and his heart couldn't help but be a little moved.

Jing Yao whispered in the back at this time: "I think this porcelain may really hit a new high, are you sure to win this game?" ”

Zhao Zhuo shook his head lightly and said, "I can't win this game, but I have a killer feature." ”

"Killer?" Jing Yao couldn't help but be surprised.

Zhao Zhuo actually didn't want to hide it from her, but if this matter was not something that could be explained clearly in a few words, he smiled lightly: "You will know when the time comes, and I guarantee that it will open your eyes." ”

Seeing Zhao Zhuo's mysterious appearance, Jing Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and subconsciously lowered her hand from her chest, only to realize that she didn't know when she was worried about him to this point.

In fact, as soon as this black glaze jar came out, the audience and the contestants were talking about it, and at first many people suspected that it was a fake, after all, it looked too new and too well preserved.

However, a person who can take the pen holder of Emperor Guangxu's imperial middle school, can he still look away at a black glaze jar?

The more it looks like a fake, the more likely it is that it is not.

In the midst of the discussion, the judges also began to identify this black glaze jar.

At present, there are two pieces of porcelain with a price of more than 6 million, one is worth 6.5 million, Tong Dongyang's Shuanglong beast ear celadon jar, and the other is worth 6.8 million, Tong Qizhou's blue glazed lotus petal pattern lid jar.

Compared with the two, this black glaze jar seems to be much simpler, and even the cylinder body does not have any embellishment, just depicting grid patterns, and the pair of birds on the lid cannot be compared with the arhat on the lotus seat.

However, the whole piece of porcelain is preserved as new, which is very rare, the shape is even more fine, and the glaze is quite beautiful. Moreover, the existence time of Deqing kiln is far lower than that of Yue kiln and other kilns, and the porcelain fired is naturally much less, among which there are fewer fine products, which have fallen to modern times, and can be preserved so perfectly, it is not an exaggeration to describe it with the word miracle.

For the first time, there was a controversy between several judges, and they discussed in a whisper, and it took a while to announce the conclusion that this porcelain was a genuine Deqing kiln in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, with an estimated value of 7.2 million.

As soon as the final word was settled, a smile appeared on the corner of Fang Youming's mouth, and he couldn't help but glance at Jing Yao's side, with a bit of smugness in his eyes, but he was looking at Jing Yao leaning forward slightly at this time, chatting with Zhao Zhuo.

Fang Youming's face couldn't help but be stained with a layer of frost, and he snorted secretly.

After valuing, Tong Dongyang and Tong Qizhou frowned at the same time, although the two felt a little bad when they saw the black glaze jar, but they didn't expect the judges' appraisal to be so much higher.

The price of 7.2 million yuan is already higher than the red square vase in the glaze of Zhang Zhidong in the first Tong Dongyang, which seems to confirm that the market price of primitive celadon ware in the market is higher than that in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China.

The atmosphere in the venue was suddenly more enthusiastic, although the price was a full 400,000 higher than the previous highest price, beyond the expectations of many people, but under the stimulation of this price, everyone felt an inexplicable sense of excitement, of course, there are many people shaking their heads and sighing, this porcelain festival, money is not money, just a number, so far the second exhibition of more than 100 pieces of collections, there are three pieces higher than six million, five million also have six or seven pieces, three or four million more double digits, The combined price is already tens of millions.
