Chapter 637: The country hates the family feud
At this time, not only did Li Laoliu's eyes light up when he heard it, but even Jin Muchen was a little dumbfounded at this time, he didn't expect that this Lu Laosi was still so specialized in this aspect.
"Boss Lu, I really didn't expect that you still know so much about this 'Yao Chang Tianmu Bowl', no wonder you are making such a beautiful Tianmu Bowl!"
Jin Muchen complimented casually, but he didn't expect this sentence, but in exchange for Lu Laosi's wordless wry smile.
"Boss Jim, how old do you think I am?"
When Lu Laosi suddenly asked like this, Jin Muchen was really stunned, and he didn't expect Lu Laosi to ask himself such a question.
Grandma, what do you mean by that? Do you think you're a big beauty? If you're a pretty woman, then I'm willing to guess your age, but you're a rough man, let me guess a fart?
However, he couldn't say this in front of others, so he had to cheer up himself and began to look at the appearance of this Lu Laosi.
On a closer look, this Lu Laosi has gray hair, his face is not very good, the corners of his eyes are wrinkled, and the two exposed hands are full of calluses.
Based on his judgment of the age of rural people, he estimated that this Lu Laosi must be more than fifty, but in front of others, he couldn't say that, just barely squeezed out a smile.
"Brother Lu is only forty-five or sixteen no matter how you look at it, and it is a good time to be in the prime of life."
When guessing a woman's age, men can talk nonsense with their eyes open, and old ladies in eighty can say eighteen. But in the face of such a rough old man with a wrinkled face. Jin Muchen is even if he has a conscience. I was embarrassed to talk nonsense in front of so many people, so I had to reduce my actual age by ten years.
But when Lu Laosi heard this, he just smiled bitterly and shook his head, and then looked up at Jin Muchen and said, "Mr. Jim, you are really a good person, to tell you the truth, I am only thirty-six this year!" ”
"What?"
Listening to Lu Laosi's actual age, Jin Muchen was so frightened that he almost didn't jump up. The difference between your actual age and your appearance is too big.
He has seen a lot of young and old people, but none of them are more powerful than this guy, could it be that this guy is the legendary pre-old and decrepit?
But just looking at the appearance, this guy is indeed very old, but when he turns, his eyes are shining from time to time, but it reminds people that this guy's age is indeed not as old as his appearance shows.
Jin Muchen wordlessly turned his head and glanced at Li Laoliu, who was a brother and brother to this Lu Laosi, this Li Laoliu's age can be done. Anyway, it has to be about fifty, but he said that he is this Lu Laosi who has been playing together since childhood, what the hell is going on?
Li Lao Liu also smiled wryly at this time and shook his head. Then he said to Jin Muchen: "This kid is actually a distant cousin of mine, and the family moved back to us when he was a child, I didn't study well at that time, and I went to elementary school with him......"
Speaking of this, Jin Muchen also understands that Li Laoliu was a repeater when he was a child, but he didn't care much about these, he was more concerned about this Lu Zhengguo, this guy seems to have a lot of stories, and it is a story related to this Yao Tianmu Bowl.
"Actually, my ancestral home is in southern Fujian, but our family was a branch of the Li family in southern Henan, but in the Song Dynasty, we moved to southern Fujian. Later, he put down roots in the local area. Before the separation, we have actually been engaged in the porcelain industry, and later our ancestors' branches to southern Fujian, still engaged in this industry. Later, I worked in Jianyang kiln, I am not bragging, and now the famous Yaobian Tianmu bowl is actually made by our ancestors back then. ”
When Lu Zhengguo said this, Jin Muchen listened very carefully, and he could see that Lu Zhengguo was not lying.
After all, in the history of ancient China, it is clear that this records the history of the development of the southern part of China several times.
In fact, before the Tang and Song dynasties, southern China was still a wild area, with dense forests, rainy seasons, and many rivers, making the south at that time a row of miasma, not suitable for human life and residence.
And the real development has to start from the Wuhu Chaohua era after the Han Dynasty, when a large number of Hu people invaded the Central Plains, resulting in a large number of deaths of the Han people, and many people had to migrate south in that era, which contributed to the first large-scale development of the southern region.
Later, after the fall of the Tang Dynasty, it was the same, the war of the five dynasties and ten kingdoms once again caused a large number of Han people to move south, including the later fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, the establishment of the Southern Song Dynasty regime, almost every change of dynasty, will be accompanied by a large number of people to the south.
The consequence of the migration of these people was not only the movement of population, but also the advanced technology of the north at that time, especially in porcelain making.
During the Song Dynasty, the center of China's porcelain industry was almost all in the north, especially concentrated in the southern Henan Province, when the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty were Ru kiln, Guan kiln, and Jun kiln, all of which were in the north, especially in the territory of southern Henan Province.
Later, after the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, a large number of workers fled to the south and brought with them the porcelain-making process of cash, which created the development and glory of the later porcelain capital, and by the way, several porcelain kilns were born in southern Fujian Province that had a great impact on later generations.
For example, the Quanzhou kiln, which is rich in white porcelain, and the Jianyang kiln, which is rich in black glazed porcelain, all flourished at that time.
The ancestors of Lu Zhengguo were obviously one of the porcelain workers who moved south to escape the war, and later participated in the research and development and manufacturing of this black glazed porcelain bowl in Jianyang kiln.
These past events are all displayed in front of Jin Muchen in Lu Zhengguo's eloquent story.
"In fact, the origin of this black glazed porcelain bowl should be the origin of the Jizhou kiln bucket hat bowl in western Jiangxi Province, when the burning of this kind of play was mainly for ordinary people and the kind of workers who worked hard. At that time, because the economy of the Southern Song Dynasty had developed into an export-led export-oriented economy, and the most important goods exported at that time were porcelain, there were many porcelain factories in the south at that time. As a result, there began to be a lot of supporting living areas around the factory, such as teahouses, restaurants, etc., and at that time, because these service industries were mainly facing those rough people who worked in the kiln factory, this kind of rough and hard bowl became popular. Later, the wind of tea fighting rose, and the Jianyang kiln in southern Fujian used the shape of this bell bowl to use black mud tires, that is, mud tires with very high iron content to fire, so there was the birth of this black glazed porcelain bowl. And this bell bowl because of the high amount of cold iron, and it is not easy to control the kiln temperature when firing, and the time cycle of each kiln to burn this porcelain bowl is also different, so after this kind of bowl is fired, there will be various mutagenesis inside the bowl. At that time, these mutagenesis, our domestic porcelain connoisseurs gave them a lot of different names, such as rabbit bowls, partridge bowls, oil drop bowls, etc., and later because of their growing fame, they were once used as tributes to the emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty at that time! ”
It seems that this Lu Zhengguo really doesn't brag, his understanding of this Yao Chang Tianmu bowl is really much deeper than Jin Muchen, Jin Muchen only knows that this bowl is very precious, but he doesn't know that there are so many origins about this bowl.
"My ancestors participated in the burning of this bell bowl, and then after the fall of the Song Dynasty, this bell bowl was not popular, and our family did not burn this bell bowl, and this situation continued until it was reopened. At the end of the 1970s, we established diplomatic relations with Japan, and soon after that, some Japanese people came to my hometown and began to ask if there was such a black glazed porcelain bowl, and not many people knew about this bell bowl at that time. But I don't know how these Japanese found my door. At that time, my grandfather was very happy because of the arrival of this group of Japanese friends, but he was fooled by these Japanese for a few words, so he took them to find the old kiln that burned this black glazed porcelain bowl, and after the Japanese found the old kiln, they also spent money for my grandfather to help dig it, and my grandfather didn't know what was going on, so he took my uncle and my dad to dig, and really dug out a lot of fragments of this black glazed porcelain bowl, and the Japanese didn't spend a few dollars to cheat those pieces away......"
Listening to Lu Zhengguo say this, Jin Muchen had basically guessed the end of this story.
The people of the old Lu family were quite happy to take the hundred and ten yuan given by the Japanese, after all, at that time, the hundred and ten yuan was already a huge amount of money for a family like them.
But how could I have imagined that a few years later, the Japanese announced in various media the number of Yaobian Tianmu bowls in their domestic collection, and several of them are newly restored Yaobian Tianmu bowls.
And the Japanese publicized this, and at this time we Chinese knew that there was actually a type of treasure in the porcelain left by our Chinese ancestors.
And Lu Zhengguo's grandfather also saw such a piece of news at the time, and when he was looking at the photos in the newspaper, he found that those restored Yao Chang Tianmu bowls were not dug out of the ground by himself and his sons back then?
Okay? When the Japanese deceived these broken porcelain pieces, they only spent about 100 yuan, but now the price of these restored Yaobian Tianmu bowls has reached millions of dollars, but they are still priceless.
How can the Lu family accept such a result? So since then, the Lu family and the Japanese have formed a national hatred and family feud! (To be continued.) )
