Shi Dabin has in-depth research on the mud preparation, molding techniques, modeling design and inscription of purple sand pottery. Make good use of all kinds of clay or doped with sand cylinder soil in the clay, and there is a praise of "sand coarse ancient stock evenly". The difficult jishu system that is still followed by the purple sand industry to this day was established, using clay chips and inlays to form out of thin air.

According to incomplete statistics, there are only a dozen pieces of purple clay pots in his writings, which are in museums or private individuals, so antique collectors and purple clay pot lovers all regard the "time pot" as the guideline.

Because of the huge reputation of "Shi Ke", not only after Shi Dabin's death, when he was still alive, there were many fakes, and there was a saying that "Shi Ju is sold in the market, and often fakes are not real", so it is not easy to get a genuine Shi Dabin.

This purple sand pot is a small pot, which is commonly known as "a pot", and its shape is basically the same as the purple sand pot made by Song Jun just used, and it is also a sand hat pot.

This pot is chestnut color, its surface has light-colored fine sand mixed mottled, the color is clear yellow, and the grains are faint. These clear yellow fine sand, commonly known as "osmanthus sand", this pot adopts the traditional sand decoration technique, the selected fine sand particles are mixed into the mud, so that the surface of the pot "osmanthus sand" looms, like the petals.

The processing ratio has reached a very high level of purple sand materials, and the coordination between the texture and the overall shape of the sand adjustment also shows the superb production skills.

The top is covered in the shape of a hat, the cover is high, and an oval button is placed on the lid, and the body of the pot is larger, making a ball, converging from the abdomen to the sole of the foot, and xiangshang converging to the shoulder.

The bottom section of Zuihou is carved with a bamboo knife in regular script "Shi Da Bin system", plus a dry branch, its knife and pen are deep and powerful, and the bone is more than the flesh.

Looking at the overall shape of this pot, it can not be called simple and majestic, rigid and soft, with four words to describe, that is, "rough but not charming", "simple and elegant", "sand coarse and ancient", "simple and elegant and firm". This pot has both "Dabin" style knowledge and dry branches, and the production is extremely fine and neat, it is a treasure to see, extremely rare, and it can really be described as precious.

The "time pot" is more precious due to its rarity, and it also makes it much more difficult for people to identify its authenticity. This time Chu Chen was able to observe so closely and carefully, which can be said to be a rare opportunity, so that he can have a standard in the antique market that is now full of a large number of fakes.

After carefully watching this "time pot", Chu Chen's heart breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he also had a feeling of attachment to this pot, such an atmospheric and exquisite purple clay pot, no wonder Uncle Fu would be reluctant to give up, and he must be the same.

Chu Chen put the pot into the brocade box and said with envy: "This pot is really exquisite, Master Song, you are really lucky." ”

Because he was about to get this "time pot", Song Jun was also overjoyed at this time, thanking Zhu Dafu again, and saying toefl to Chu Chen.

Zhu Dafu stroked the pot carefully, and said with emotion: "To be honest, I am really reluctant in my heart, but I think that I am also old, and there is no suitable successor among the younger generations, sooner or later I will have to find a home for my collection, this time I will follow Master Song's wishes." ”

Chu Chen hurriedly said: "Uncle Fu, you are only seventy-two, how can you say that you are old, and besides, don't you still have Sister Xin." ”

Zhu Dafu smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm just sighing for yesterday's trip, but you Sister Xin, don't expect it, although she likes antiques, but the most important thing is to fancy the economic value inside." To be honest, this is actually the sadness of our industry. ”

"Although there are more people who like to collect recently, but most of them are interested in the economic interests, let's not talk about it, after all, our collection can not go on without money, but many of them are ignorant of the collection, how can we pass on the culture of our ancestors?"

These words couldn't help but make the two fall into contemplation, although money is good, but too much money will become copper stinking, and the more benefits, the more bulls, ghosts, snakes and gods will be attracted, and the corresponding artistic and cultural value of antiques will be much lower in people's hearts.

Art and culture are often priceless, because this is our spiritual food, but also a kind of inheritance, but the amount of money always has a value, if money affects art and culture, it will not only destroy the inheritance of our ancestors, to put it seriously, it will also destroy the future of human civilization.

Therefore, the relationship between antiques and money is actually a bit like the relationship between life and money, your life is inseparable from money, but your life cannot be controlled by money. In the same way, antiques are inseparable from money, but if antiques are completely based on money, then the value of antiques should be lost.

"When people are old, there are more words, let's just do what we should do, like now, the time is not early, let's hurry up and sign the transfer agreement!" Zhu Dafu took out the four transfer agreements that had been prepared for a long time and said to the two with a smile.

Chu Chen took his agreement and looked at it briefly, after five years of antique career, he is also very familiar with this thing, the agreement is actually quite simple, it is generally a format, just write the names of both parties A and B, and then write down the amount and items, both parties have no objection, sign their names and dates.

The antique industry pays attention to buying and leaving, and signing such an agreement means that the buyer has confirmed the authenticity of the item, and there is no reason to settle accounts after the autumn. There is also a kind of appraisal certificate issued by the seller, if the buyer takes it back and finds that the thing is fake, then he can find the seller to settle the account.

However, now some appraisal certificates are also ambiguous, a simple analogy, for example, the buyer buys a piece of Hetian jade, the appraisal certificate proves that it is jade, and the buyer goes home and finds that it is not Hetian jade but Russian jade at all, even if he goes to the seller, he can't get any explanation.

Therefore, to buy antiques, you must keep your eyes open, as the saying goes, buy not sell fine, antique newcomers, or don't think about being able to have the autumn after the accounting, the same see antiques with appraisal certificates, you have to have one more mind.

Chu Chen took the pen, then filled in the name and amount of the item on the agreement, and then signed the name and date even if it was a transaction, and today is a coincidence, there is a certifier on the agreement to sign, it happens that Song Jun is there, so he can act as a witness, and he also happens to act as a certifier of Song Jun's agreement.

In fact, the certifier on the agreement does have a certain role, but it is not a decisive factor, and if there are no conditions, it doesn't matter if you don't write it.

After everyone signed the agreement, they walked to the bank, but fortunately, the bank was not far away, and it would take a few minutes to arrive.

On the way, Chu Chen said to Zhu Dafu as he walked: "Uncle Fu, why don't you go to get a check, so that the transaction will not be so troublesome, and you will have to make up time." ”

Zhu Dafu said with a smile: "I'm old, I'm not used to using this thing, and people are dazzled, and it's troublesome to accidentally read or write wrong, it's more convenient in the bank, and we won't always encounter such a large transaction today, and it's enough to use cash at ordinary times." ”

After the bank transfer, Chu Chen took out 50,000 yuan, don't look at 50,000 yuan, it seems to be a lot, but the rent broadband alone costs about 20,000 yuan, the computer needs more than 10,000 yuan, and the rest of the money has to be purchased, as well as the usual purchase of collections, 50,000 yuan can be easily spent, it is really easy to earn and spend.

However, Chu Chen looked at the 450,000 in the account, he was still very excited, just a few days ago he had lost 420,000, and today not only filled the deficit, but also increased by tens of thousands, which couldn't help but make him sigh.

At this time, Song Jun looked at his watch and said, "It's time for dinner, why don't I invite the two of you to dinner today?" ”

When Chu Chen heard this, he turned his senses and said to them: "How can you let Master Song invite you to dinner, I made a small fortune today, and besides, I am still the landlord, and I will definitely take care of this matter of treating." ”

Zhu Dafu saw that Song Jun was still polite, so he said with a smile: "Okay, Master Song, let's rob Xiaochen, the little rich man, today, and wait for the next time we go to Yixing, then we will have to trouble Master Song, the landlord." ”

Song Jun had no choice but to nod and agree to this arrangement, so Chu Chen took them to find a more high-grade private restaurant, now he has food in his hands, he is not panicked, and he really has the style of a small landlord.

During the period, the three of them had a heated discussion on the purple clay pot and the tea ceremony, of course, Chu Chen is still a newcomer in these two aspects, mainly Zhu Dafu and Song Jun said that in general, the meal is a happy meal, and at the same time, Chu Chen has learned a lot of knowledge, and he is also more interested in the tea ceremony.

Although a few dishes cost more than 1,000 yuan, Chu Chen felt that it was quite rewarding, not to mention that the quality of the dishes was really good, first of all, he was familiar with Song Jun a lot, and when it came to zuihou, Song Jun also promised to send him a set of tea sets made by his novice.

This couldn't help but make Chu Chen's eyebrows flutter, after all, Song Jun is also a famous pot maker in the local area, and if he wants to get his works, not to mention money, he often needs time to wait, which makes Chu Chen happy, and said again and again, "How embarrassing is this!" ”。

After eating, the three of them said goodbye to each other, and Song Jun directly booked the afternoon train because of something at home, and was ready to go back. It turned out that Chu Chen was going to invite him to play for two days and ask him about the tea ceremony, but now he can only wait for the next opportunity.

However, Song Jun was originally a busy man, and I don't know how long it will take for the two of them to zaijian, Chu Chen still has some regrets in his heart. Fortunately, communication is now developed, and if there is anything I don't understand about the tea ceremony, I can still communicate by phone, but in the end, it is still not as convenient as real person communication.
