Chapter 555: Black Pottery
"Bald?"
Chu Chen was a little puzzled by this name at first, but he immediately remembered that the bald head Biao in Pang Caihu's mouth was probably the bald head who was scared silly by him.
Then, Pang Laohu described the appearance of the bald head Biao he said, and Chu Chen immediately affirmed in his heart that it was the person he thought.
Chu Chen asked, "How do you know that the bald head Biao is here to trouble me?" Do you know the man who mastered the bald head? ”
Pang Laohu hurriedly explained: "This matter, when I went to look for Bald Biao this morning, his wife told me, she said that Bald Biao was beaten so badly by you, and asked me to help Bald Biao avenge it." I got along fairly well with the bald Biao, and when I heard about it, I brought these friends of mine with me. ”
"You're so bold that you didn't even know who I was beforehand!" Chu Chen shook his head when he heard this, but Pang Laohu also gave him a clue, the bald wife should know who the person instructed by Lu Dao, and turned around to call his uncle and asked him to investigate, and if he ended the matter, he could be regarded as pulling out a thorn in his heart.
"This ...... Hey! Pang Laohu smiled, he mainly felt that his brother-in-law was also a high-ranking official, in this part of the capital, the owner of an antique shop must have dealt with it, but he didn't expect something to happen as soon as he came, even if he survived safely this time, he estimated that he would be cleaned up by his brother-in-law.
"By the way, did the bald Biao's wife tell you that the bald Biao is crazy!" Chu Chen suddenly thought of a key question.
Pang Laohu was stunned, and then hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, if the bald head is crazy." Then his wife doesn't have a reason why she won't tell me! ”
"That's it!"
Chu Chen nodded, in this case, the bald wife deliberately did not tell Pang Laohu. In addition, the bald head pretends to be crazy and sells stupid.
Chu Chen leaned towards the latter, after all, the bald head Biao was also a small leader. How can it be so easy to be frightened crazy, he thinks that the reason why Bald Biao pretends to be crazy and stupid is to avoid beating him severely at that time, and secondly, to escape punishment.
Anyway, since he learned about such a situation from Pang Laohu, Chu Chen hurriedly took his mobile phone and called Zhao Qirui. Explain the situation, and I think this matter should be settled quickly.
Just as Chu Chen was calling, the police. Cha, ambulance, and Pang Laohu's brother-in-law all arrived.
Chu Chen was really in no mood to deal with this matter, so he had a few false grievances with Pang Laohu's brother-in-law, and after a few polite words with the police, he sent them all away.
"Let's go, let's go upstairs!" Chu Chen shook his head, then picked up the cardboard box and walked straight upstairs.
When Chu Chen and the others disappeared, those clerks began to talk about it. In the past, they knew that their young boss was both knowledgeable and very wealthy, but today's scene shocked them even more.
That Pang Laohu's brother-in-law was already a high-ranking official for them. In front of Chu Chen, he could only be submissive, very afraid that his boss would be angry, so it seems. This young, handsome and wealthy boss is likely to be a handsome and eye-catching character!
This made all the clerks stunned at the same time. Some of the female clerks also began to think crankily in their hearts.
When he arrived at the VIP room, Zhou Wenping hurriedly made tea for Chu Chen. Then he said: "Boss, although there is less excitement in this matter today, it can be regarded as a reputation for our store, at least no one will dare to come to our store to make trouble in the future." ”
"That's what I think too!" Chu Chen smiled slightly: "Okay, I don't want to spoil this matter, let's take a look at this black pottery!" ”
"Black pottery?" Zhou Wenping and Lao Wu were both attracted by Chu Chen's words.
Then, Chu Chen took out the utensil wrapped in newspaper, which turned out to be a black pottery goblet.
This high-handled cup is 223 centimeters high, with a diameter of nearly 10 centimeters, and the whole body is clay black pottery, and the surface of the vessel is black and shiny.
This cup has a wide oblique rim, a deep belly cup, a thin tubular high handle, and a circled base. The middle of the cup belly is decorated with six concave string patterns, and the bulging part of the middle part of the thin handle is hollow and decorated with fine perforations, which looks like a cage.
A pottery pill is placed in it, and when the cup is shaken in your hand, the pottery pill will make a light and crisp sound when it hits the cage wall. When the cup stands, the pottery pill can play a role in stabilizing the center of gravity, and the design is very ingenious.
When Zhou Wenping saw it, he exclaimed: "Boss, this won't be the eggshell black pottery of the famous Longshan culture, right?" ”
The Longshan culture, which is roughly equivalent to a type of cultural remains in the late Neolithic period, is mainly distributed in the Lu Province Peninsula, and a small number of sites have been found in other places. This culture is characterized by many thin, hard, light and black pottery, especially eggshell black pottery, so it is also called "black pottery culture".
Eggshell pottery is a kind of high-handled cup with exquisite production, small shape, dark and bright appearance, and thin pottery as thin as an eggshell, which is a representative utensil of Longshan culture and a kind of vessel specially used for ceremonial purposes, which is mostly seen in larger tombs.
Eggshell pottery is made from fine mud deposited in rivers and lakes in ancient times. It is even more delicate than the clay produced by modern techniques, and it contains no coarse sand or other impurities.
Pottery craftsmen use fast wheel blank forming or segmented manual molding, through the billet, grinding, calendering, ground removal, scratching, tapering, hollowing, pinching, plastering, bonding, high-temperature firing, carburizing and other processes to fire, the water absorption rate is low. The unearthed artifacts have been basically free from soil and water erosion for thousands of years, and the surface of the artifacts is as smooth as new.
Thin ceramic tire is an important feature of its production process, the thinnest part in the handicap part, the thin 0.3 mm, some as thin as 0.2 mm, generally about 0.5 mm.
The shank and base are slightly thickened to support the weight of the upper part, but they are not more than 1-2 mm common. The height of the body does not exceed 25 cm, and the weight is mostly 50-70 grams. Eggshell pottery has the reputation of "thin as paper, hard as porcelain, bright as a mirror, and black as lacquer". It is precisely because of this that it is called eggshell pottery.
However, according to the current pottery technology, it is almost impossible to smoothly pull out a thin tire clay with a thickness of about 0.2-0.5 mm. The thickness of the bottom of the thin porcelain of the Ming and Qing Dynasty official kilns in Jingdezhen is also about 1-2 mm, and the blank is less than 1 mm at the edge of the mouth. Unless the molding grouting process is used, the eggshell pottery is imitated as it is, and the technical difficulty is unimaginable today. This is also a difficult problem that plagues many modern experts and scholars.
Chu Chen carefully looked at the high-handled cup in his hand, and found that no matter in every aspect, it was the same as the real Longshan eggshell black pottery, and then nodded: "If I'm not mistaken, this should indeed be a Longshan eggshell black pottery." (To be continued......)
