Chapter 213: The pinnacle of work
Han Peacock nodded, didn't say anything, he really needed their help, after all, each of them was flourishing, mixed in this society, it didn't matter, and he couldn't do anything.
Just like his information company, no one has ever made trouble until now, Han Peacock absolutely believes that it was Jiang Lin who said hello, otherwise it would be very troublesome just a tax.
After all, Han Peacock's company has a lot of money, as long as there are financial transactions, you have to pay taxes, if no one says hello, someone will already come to check the tax.
"After eating, we will go back to rest, no one is allowed to go out to fool around, recuperate our spirits, let's go over there, let Xiao Han take us to make a fortune again, I have heard, Xiao Han is also a master in gambling stones." Chen Jiayi told everyone after the most reluctance.
"Let's go, let's go to the room and watch a little movie." Zhu Feiyu said slightly.
"You're not afraid of burning with lust." He Cheng Qiandao.
Zhu Feiyu made an eyebrow raising movement and said, "So you have to vent!" You know. ”
When he returned to the room, he saw that Han Xing and Zhang Xiangyue also followed, and Han Peacock said, "Go back to sleep!" ”
Han Xing said: "We also sleep in this room. ”
"Huh?" Han Peacock's head is full of black lines.
Zhang Xiangyue pointed to the side, and Han Peacock saw that there were two portals over there, which should be suites.
"A suite of 1,008 a day, with a maid's room and a bodyguard's room, is not bad, and the average is only 600 per person." Han Xing said.
Han Peacock couldn't cry or laugh, he didn't expect him to enjoy this kind of treatment one day.
It turned out that he followed those masters of the Phoenix Jewelry Company to gamble on stones, if he stayed in a high-end hotel. He also had such a small room, and he lived in the servant's room at that time.
"Xiang Yue, can you take out the notebook in the car? I just woke up and didn't feel sleepy at all, and I wanted to go online. Han Peacock said.
"Yes, I brought it out, in my room." Zhang Xiangyue said.
Han Peacock said: "If you want to surf the Internet, there should be a computer in the room, and I want to use that computer to play games, and there is a collection on it." Han Peacock said.
In the past few days, Han Peacock has called Han Rongrong, but he has not been able to get through. This made Han Peacock a little worried. There's nothing to do today, let's take a look at the game, maybe Han Rongrong's kid is crazy playing games, and he doesn't even know what to do when his phone is turned off.
Han Peacock didn't know what to say. Han Rongrong was in pain and happy at this time.
Han Rongrong, this kid is just lazy. Indolent. And the master with high eyes and low eyes, he will not be down-to-earth in doing things, and always want to climb to the sky in one step. So after Han Peacock handed over a broken small bowl to him to deal with, he had a dream and dreamed of selling this small bowl for a sky-high price.
In addition to this, he also had other ideas about the plates and bowls in Han Peacock's warehouse.
As for the ones in the cupboard, he had already given up, and after Han Peacock left, he immediately moved them all out, but he didn't find a single one with words, although he didn't have much knowledge of identification, but he also knew that those should not be worth anything.
That morning, as soon as Han Peacock went out, Han Rongrong immediately got up from the bed, and when he was sure that Han Peacock was gone, he immediately took a few broken newspapers that had been prepared a long time ago, wrapped the broken bowl, and a few ordinary blue and white plates, and went out.
The recent expenses have been relatively large, and the original savings have long been spent by him, so he is so honest during the time when Han Peacock is at home.
Except for going out to meet his girlfriend secretly, no one else dared to see him, he really had no money, if he hadn't followed his eldest brother to eat these days, Han Rongrong wouldn't even have the money to eat.
Originally, Han Rongrong thought that he could get some money from the project of renovating the house, but he didn't expect his eldest brother to be more cunning, and he actually sent a financial supervisor, and all the things that use money must be found by that finance, which makes Han Rongrong become a miscellaneous worker, not a supervisor.
Taking the broken small bowl, Han Rongrong regretted it very much, he had known that he would carefully collect these treasures, but now that they were broken, if they wanted to sell them for a good price, they could only repair them.
Han Rongrong walked on the antique street, at this time the ghost market had just dispersed, and there were not many stalls, he went to Chen Qing's steamed bun shop and bought two steamed buns and a cup of soy milk, and walked while eating.
If it weren't for the fact that there might be a big harvest today, Han Rongrong would definitely not be willing to be so extravagant, two buns and a cup of soy milk cost seven yuan, and the buns were still so small, if he wanted to eat enough, he would have to spend seventy yuan, right?
Looking at the bun in his hand, which was more than half smaller, Han Rongrong scolded the profiteer fiercely.
Red House Restaurant No. 1 Store, this is the name of the steamed bun shop in the antique street, in order to correspond to its own signboard, the steamed buns in the store have been greatly adjusted, from the original fist size, to the current egg size.
From the original thick skin and more filling, it has become the current thin skin and big filling, although the reputation is as good, but the size of the bun is small! No matter how big the filling is, it is not as big as the original, and now this kind of bun, Han Rongrong can stuff two in his mouth in one bite.
Swallowing this small bun worth three yuan in one bite, Han Rongrong couldn't bear to eat the remaining one, he began to chew slowly, carefully tasting the deliciousness of the bun.
The bun with leek meat filling, the rich leek flavor is harmonized by the same rich meat fragrance, the bite is very strong in the mouth, very chewy, looking at the meat filling that is a little dry, but you can easily bite out the gravy when you bite it, which is even more fragrant.
Although the price has been doubled in disguise, it is undeniable that this Chen family bun is more delicious and more famous, otherwise, the business would not be better.
Han Rongrong was a little jealous, but he quickly cleaned up his mood, and he made money selling steamed buns, could he make money by making antiques?
Maybe he can make a year's profit from this steamed bun shop by selling such a small bowl.
After glancing at it again, there was a long queue to buy steamed buns in front of the Red Mansion Restaurant, and Han Rongrong muttered and left: "Such expensive steamed buns, why are so many people going to buy them?"
It's time for breakfast, so there aren't many people on the street, but there are some old stall owners who came early and have already set up their stalls.
Han Rongrong saw a lot of porcelain on a stall, and he walked over directly: "Boss." There is no porcelain from the Republic of China period. ”
The boss is a young man, and his age is not necessarily older than Han Rongrong, but he is unusually calm: "From the Republic of China? What porcelain do you want in the Republic of China? Ordinary or boutique? If it is a famous kiln, it will be expensive. ”
"I want an official kiln." Han Rongrong said.
"Official kiln?" The young stall owner looked at Han Rongrong in surprise, this is a mallet?
"No problem, what do you think of this? The official kiln of the Republic of China, authentic Hongxian porcelain. The stall owner reacted quickly, and directly took out one from a pile of blue and white porcelain and placed it beside Han Rongrong.
Han Rongrong carefully picked it up and took a look. Blue and white are dull. It can't be compared with those blue and white flowers at home, although Han Rongrong can't say anything wrong, but he can still see that this blue and white bowl is small. It can't be compared to any small blue and white bowl at home.
"This is Hong Xian porcelain? Yuan Shikai let people burn? Han Rongrong asked in surprise.
The stall owner couldn't help but laugh and said, "Yes." This is Hong Xian porcelain. If you want to say that it is an official kiln, it can't be wrong, and the official kiln of the Republic of China is only Hongxian porcelain. ”
"Who are you fooling? This doesn't even have a payment? Could it be Hong Xian porcelain? Han Rongrong looked at the ordinary small bowl, such a small bowl. It's not as beautiful as the blue and white porcelain sold in the local product store, but this thing is still an official kiln?
"You don't understand this, Hongxian porcelain is known as an official kiln without money, so don't look at this blue and white bowl without money, this is authentic Hongxian porcelain." Knowing that Han Rongrong was following the mallet, the stall owner began to flicker at will.
"How much does this little bowl cost?" Han Rongrong didn't buy it anyway, he just wanted to inquire about the price, so he didn't mind the stall owner fooling around.
The stall owner is also very shrewd, looking at Han Rongrong's appearance, it doesn't look like he's here to buy something, he is carrying a backpack on his back, and he is probably here to sell things, so the stall owner said: "I do business as a child, although this small bowl is Hongxian porcelain, but there is no knowledge, the market price of this porcelain is not high, so as long as three thousand, as long as three thousand, you can take it away." ”
Originally, I wanted to say less, but the stall owner was afraid that Han Rongrong would really want to buy it, so he offered a price that was not slippery.
If you sell this small bowl at such a price, you can make a hundredfold profit, if you inquire about the price, if you really receive Hong Xian porcelain, the price of three thousand is not expensive.
"Three thousand? Three thousand for someone like you? Han Rongrong turned his head and left.
Seeing Han Rongrong drifting away, the stall owner was directly dumbfounded, Han Rongrong snickered, wanting to deceive himself, you are still a little tender.
At this time, most of the antique shops on both sides of the street were not open, so Han Rongrong would wander around the street and learn about the price of Hong Xian porcelain by the way.
Although his small bowl is broken, it is not seriously broken, as long as it is not repaired, the price will definitely not be low.
After wandering around the antique street for more than an hour, Han Rongrong also inquired about it, the price of the general Republic of China boutique is about 30,000, and a small bowl like him belongs to the boutique of the boutique, and the price should be high.
After waiting for more than eight o'clock, Han Rongrong walked directly into the ancient porcelain shop, which is the largest and oldest antique shop on the antique street, and the ancient porcelain is good at repairing porcelain.
When Han Rongrong walked into the ancient porcelain zhai, in fact, the old shopkeeper of the ancient porcelain zhai had been up for a long time, and he was repairing some porcelain on the top floor of the ancient porcelain zhai.
In fact, in recent days, everyone in the ancient porcelain house has been very busy, and most of the masters are taking their apprentices to repair a batch of porcelain.
Due to the large number of porcelain, up to now, they can only put together only two or three pieces of porcelain, which is still because the porcelain is very lightly damaged, plus the pattern is special, there is no similar kind of porcelain, so that they can easily put it together.
Most of these broken porcelain pieces are dishes and dishes, and the pieces are almost the same, so it is difficult to find a complete one.
Fortunately, this batch of porcelain is pastel in addition to blue and white, so the two categories are divided, plus the different patterns, so that their workload is much smaller.
Now they are mainly excluding some worthless life porcelain, such porcelain pieces are the most, and the pattern is mostly repeated with some fine porcelain, so it is more troublesome to choose.
Li Chenghe looked at the negative of the porcelain plate in front of him, this is a batch of Hailao porcelain, and it is Hailao porcelain that has been salvaged in advance.
After the relevant departments got the clues, in the wreck, only some complete vessels of little value were found, and these broken porcelain pieces of high value.
Some of these valuable porcelain pieces have been corroded by seawater, and many more have been contaminated by silt and marine organisms, which need to be cleaned and maintained.
Thankfully, it doesn't matter if it's a bowl. It's still a plate, and its bottom is the thickest, so the bottom is not broken much, which allows a lot of knowledge to be preserved intact.
Looking at the negatives sealed in the plastic bag, Li Chenghe felt a toothache and a distress, it was a pity that such a large number of fine porcelain was destroyed.
And he hated the treasure thieves even more, and actually ransacked all the remaining intact vessels.
This is an excellent opportunity to study the official kiln of Yuan Shikai, which is very controversial in modern times, if there is a large number of porcelain for people to study. There will be no controversy.
Good is good. Although the first batch of broken porcelain is only a batch now, through this batch of broken porcelain, Li Chenghe can see that the firing process at that time is no worse than the products of the Qing Imperial Kiln.
This also made Li Chenghe very happy. I'm glad I withstood the pressure. Get your hands on this batch of porcelain.
Although the restoration of porcelain magic city museum also gave a part of the cost. But that cost, at most, is only enough for labor expenses, other expenses. They have to take the ancient porcelain for nothing.
Even so, many research institutes and individual institutions want to grab this batch of broken porcelain, and they all want to improve their understanding of the porcelain of the Republic of China through this batch of broken porcelain.
Li Chenghe was able to grab a batch of broken porcelain, one aspect is that there are a lot of broken porcelain, and the other aspect is his craftsmanship, which can completely repair porcelain, but not everyone can do it.
At the very least, in addition to the Demon City Museum, which has this kind of technique, in the Demon City, it is his ancient porcelain Zhai's craftsmanship is the best.
Each piece of this batch of porcelain has been registered, and photographed and numbered, so as not to be lost, although there are many restrictions, but Li Chenghe really does not regret getting this trouble, through these days, many of his apprentices have learned a lot.
Not to mention anything else, now that I have met the Republic of China porcelain, all the people in his store can be completely independently identified, and after seeing so many genuine products, if you can't complete the appraisal independently, it will be too wasteful.
The varieties of this batch of porcelain are richer than Li Chenghe could imagine, but some of the bottom items he has found now are enough for him to forget all the price he paid for this batch of broken porcelain.
There are "Jurentang", "Jurentang System", "Jingyuantang System", "Yanqing Lou System", and even some porcelain fragments of "Jingzhai", "Jingzhai Master", "Guo Shiwu", "Pottery Superintendent Guo Baochang" and so on.
Needless to say, the two base sections of "Jurentang" and "Jurentang System" must have been fired for Yuan Shikai, and the other "Jingyuantang System" and "Yanqing Building System" were fired for Xu Shichang and Cao Kun.
And "Zhai Zhai", "Zhai Master", "Guo Shiwu", "Pottery Supervisor Guo Baochang Careful System" are Guo Baochang's own private porcelain.
It can be said that this batch of porcelain completely covers Guo Baochang's firing and there are many types of porcelain, which is rare.
But this discovery is even more distressing and annoying, and so many fine products have been found, all of which are broken porcelain.
Such a batch of imperial kilns without an annual model are actually broken so badly, although it is only a rough estimate, this batch of fine porcelain is at least a thousand pieces.
Some people say that Guo Baochang only fired less than 6,000 pieces of porcelain for Yuan Shikai, and if 1,000 pieces were destroyed here, this would be one-sixth gone, how could this not make Li Chenghe's heart ache.
Although there are many people who do not recognize Yuan Shikai's batch of pseudo-official kilns, the firing process of this batch of porcelain is definitely more exquisite than that of the imperial kilns in the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Although Yuan Shikai only served as a short-lived emperor for 83 days, he left behind a batch of antique porcelain of the highest quality in the history of porcelain of the Republic of China.
At the beginning of 1916, Yuan Shikai appointed Guo Baochang, the director of general affairs, to go to Jiangxi to supervise the burning of Hongxian imperial porcelain.
For this batch of porcelain, he spent 1.4 million oceans, which is equivalent to about one million taels of silver.
Some people say that there are about 40,000 pieces of porcelain, while others say that there are only 6,000 pieces, and whether it is 40,000 pieces or 6,000 pieces, the cost of apportioning each piece of porcelain is very high.
According to the records of Qing history, during the Qianlong period, the Jingdezhen imperial kiln had to hand over 40,000 to 50,000 pieces of porcelain every year, and the imperial court only paid 30,000 taels of silver a year.
Hongxian porcelain so regardless of the cost, of course, extremely exquisite, in this sense, it can also be regarded as the official kiln porcelain of the Republic of China, and even many people think that its craftsmanship is more exquisite than the Qiankang prosperous era, not to mention the late Qing Dynasty when the national strength is declining, it can be said that this batch of porcelain should be the culmination of the peak craftsmanship of porcelain since the past dynasties.
After Guo Baochang went to Jiangxi, he first burned porcelain for Yuan Shikai in the "Jurentang" style, and at the same time, he also fired a batch of porcelain for the Beiyang warlords Xu Shichang (signed the "Jingyuan Tang system") and Cao Kun (signed the "Yanqing Lou system").
There are mainly furnishing bottles, cups, plates, bowls and other daily porcelain and complete sets of tableware, this batch of porcelain is fine white and lightweight, the glaze is white and moist, the shape of the vessel is delicate and exquisite, and there are few large pieces.
These batches of porcelain were fired at the same time, but because of their different uses, although the styles are similar, they are not exactly the same.
"Jurentang" porcelain was used to give gifts to guests and Yuan Shikai at the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China, and they are all imitation enamel and pastel ware.
Although there is no enamel in this batch of fragments, the craftsmanship of the pastel is extremely amazing.
The porcelain is broken, and you can see the skill of the porcelain master, whether it is a porcelain fetus or a porcelain painting, the craftsmanship is very exquisite, especially the porcelain painting, the depiction is delicate and nuanced, and it is easy to see that this is not something that the general kiln can achieve.
"Grandpa, go down and take a look, there's a young man down there, and I'm going to repair a piece of porcelain, if I'm not mistaken, it's a small pastel bowl of the Jurentang style." Li Wei quickly ran up from below and shouted to her grandfather.
She knew that her grandfather had been hurting a batch of Republic of China porcelain recently, and he would definitely be interested in what she said.
"You can do it! After seeing so many fine porcelain pieces of the Republic of China, you should be able to easily distinguish the authenticity. Li Chenghe was not as happy as his granddaughter imagined. (To be continued......)
