Chapter 92: Happy New Year

Xu Yang has Xu Yang's thoughts, if the other party finds a step for himself now, even if he says that he insults the other party and lifts his ass and leaves, then he will not embarrass the other party, and leave a line for doing things, so that they can meet in the future! Xu Yang understands this truth very well.

It's just that there are so many people in this world who don't have long eyes, their eyes are fixed on money, where are they willing to give up the money that will come soon, so Xu Yang has already given the other party a chance, the other party doesn't know how to cherish it, and he doesn't have to say anything!

"What do you mean by that, boy, what do you little kid know!" said Jia Liar.

"The kid just doesn't know how to ask, if he does, he won't ask!Uncle, don't be angry!" Xu Yang immediately said with a "sincere" apology, and the other party had no way to do it.

"That's okay! I'll tell you the origin of this Xuande furnace! Xuande furnace is a thing cast during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, you don't understand, first of all, you look at how atmospheric this furnace is, and you look at the printed money on it, plus the appraisal of Mr. Lao Jia Na Dongfang Rui, this thing is now sold at a big discount, and it can definitely be auctioned at a sky-high price!"

Xu Yang pursed his lips, he was embarrassed to take out this bit of knowledge to fool people, and then look at Daddy Xiong, he can deceive this kind of person, it can be said that Daddy Xiong is really like his surname.

"Gone?" Xu Yang looked at each other with those curious eyes. There was a thirst for knowledge in those eyes!

"You don't understand too much, those are too professional, I don't know when to talk about it, now it's better to get down to business first, uncle will give you a postcard, if you are really interested, you can call me whenever you want!

"Ah, this is a good thing, thank you Uncle Wang!" said Daddy Xiong excitedly when he heard this.

"Oh! Thank you Uncle Wang! But I know a little bit about the Xuande furnace, I don't know if I can give the kid a chance to 'get the axe' in front of the two uncles, and of course I won't delay too much time!"

Wang Liar and Jia Liar two of them gave each other another look, to be honest, neither of them took Xu Yang too seriously, what can a little broken child who is less than twenty understand, now it seems that this kid is not settled, and this deal really can't be made today, so Jia Liar said: "Then listen to the young man to introduce us, it just so happens that I also have a lot of knowledge!"

"Since that's the case, I'll be ugly!" Xu Yang took a sip of tea and said: "Xuande furnace is a copper incense burner designed and manufactured during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty, referred to as "Xuanlu". It is the first bronze ware made of brass in Chinese history. In order to make the copper furnace of the "fine" product, under the personal supervision of the Emperor Xuande, the entire production process, including copper smelting, modeling must be from the "Xuanhe Bogutu", "Archaeological Map" and other classics and hundreds of pieces of Song and Yuan Dynasty kilns hidden in the Inner Palace, "fine" selected in line with the applicable object, the shape of the elegant system, the drawing into a pattern, presented to the emperor to see, and explain the source of the drawing and the source of the allusion, after screening and determination, and then cast into a physical sample for Xuanzong to see, satisfied with the rear of the casting!

Let me first tell you about the reason and background of the manufacture of this Xuande furnace!

During the reign of Emperor Xuande of the Ming Dynasty, in order to satisfy the hobby of playing with the incense burner, he ordered the import of a batch of red copper from Siam, and instructed the imperial craftsman Lu Zhen and the Ministry of Works' 'waiter' Lang Wu Bangzuo to design and supervise the production of incense burners with reference to the styles of firewood kilns, Ru kilns, official kilns, Ge kilns, Jun kilns, and Dingyao famous porcelain in the imperial palace, as well as historical books such as "Xuanhe Bogu Catalogue" and "Archaeological Map"!

In order to ensure the quality of the incense burner, Lu Zhen trembled and told the emperor that if he wanted to make a good incense burner, the copper had to be refined six times. After refining once, less, after six times, only half of the raw materials will be left. Emperor Xuande was rich and wealthy, and he immediately ordered that the number of 'refining' refining should not only not be reduced, but also doubled (refining twelve times), and adding precious metals such as gold and silver. So the craftsman selected dozens of precious metals such as gold and silver, and together with the red copper, they went through more than ten "fine" casting. After great efforts, after three years of Xuande, the best copper incense burner was finally successfully produced!

This batch of red copper cast a total of 3,000 incense burners, never produced again, Emperor Xuande saw this batch of incense burners that he personally asked, each one was abnormal in atmosphere, Baoguang four 'shot', very sense of achievement. Most of these incense burners were displayed in various parts of the court, and a small part was also rewarded and distributed to the emperor's relatives, prominent ministers and temples with large scale and flourishing incense. These Xuande furnaces are only known by ordinary people, but not by their shape. After hundreds of years of ups and downs, the copper incense burner cast in three years of real Xuande is extremely rare!

That is to say, there are only 3,000 pieces of Xuande furnace handed down from generation to generation, and due to historical reasons, there are only a few dozen pieces in the world today, and in addition to the two Xuande furnaces collected by the Forbidden City, as far as I know, there are no more than two private collections!

When Xu Yang said this, the Wang liar and the Jia liar were already surprised, Xu Yang said that they also knew, and it was not as detailed as Xu Yang knew, which showed that the kid in front of him knew more than himself and the others, looking at the things that were talked about there, they suddenly didn't know why they had a bad premonition in their hearts! But money is moving, and these liars will not give up easily in terms of greed!

Xu Yang is actually giving the other party a chance now, as long as the other party doesn't care about the reason, even if he says that he is unhappy, and his wife at home gives birth to a child and leaves, Xu Yang is not difficult for them, but now seeing the other party sitting there and not moving, Xu Yang decided to make a big move.

After taking a sip of tea, Xu Yang continued: "Next, I'm talking about the 'color' and characteristics of this Xuande furnace!" Xu Yang took on his gloves and picked up the "Xuande furnace" and began to say: "The basic shape of the Xuande furnace of the Ming Dynasty is open, square 'lip' or round 'lip', the neck is short and thin, the abdomen is flat, the abdomen is flat, the three obtuse conical solid feet or the crotch empty feet, the mouth edge is placed on the bridge ear or the shaped ear or the beast-shaped ear, the inscription is more than the outer bottom of the furnace, and the Xuande porcelain model is similar.

In addition to copper, precious materials such as gold and silver are added, so the furnace quality is particularly delicate, with a dark purple 'color' or a dark brown 'color'. Generally, the furnace material has to go through four refining, while the Xuande furnace has to go through twelve refining, so the furnace quality will be more pure, such as baby skin. The gilt or gold-inlaid Xuande furnace is shining, which can give people a feeling of being extraordinary!

The most wonderful thing about Xuande furnace is the "color", and its "color" melts inside, and it glows from the gloom. There are more than 40 kinds of "color" in historical records, which are loved by the world, and there are many names for "color". For example, the purple with blue and black like the eggplant skin is called the "color" of the eggplant; the black and yellow like the Tibetan scripture paper is called the "color" of the Tibetan scriptures; the black and white with the red and light yellow "color" is called the brown "color"; the soil of the old "jade" is called the "color" of the ancient soil; the white and yellow with the red like the "color" of the tang pear is called the "color" of the tang pear, and the yellow and red "color" of the ground, covered with colorful spots, is called the imitation of the Song Dynasty burning spot, the spot that is more bright red than the pearl sand is called the vermilion spot, and the light as the "color" of pork liver, the "color" of jujube red, the "color" of amber, the powder of tea, the green of crab shells, and so on...... Xiang Yuanbian (Zijing), a great connoisseur, collector and painter during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, said: "The wonder of the Xuan furnace is pearlescent in the connotation of treasure 'color', and it is surging on the outside. ””

Put down this "Xuande furnace", Xu Yang doesn't want to talk about it anymore, the so-called Xuande furnace in Xu Yang's hand is basically not close to what Xu Yang said above, but it can't be said to be different at all. At the very least, the other party still knows that the imitation is a 'very' like, but the patina Xu Yang on it is doubting whether it is soaked in the dung pit!

"Hehe!" Wang Liar laughed a few times and said, "I didn't expect that the young man knows a lot about 'quite a lot', and he is also an insider, right?"

This is "Roots!" Xu Yang also smiled and said: "It's not counting, it's barely a career!"

"Old Xiong, you're not right, your nephew is also an insider, don't tell me a word, it's obvious that he looks down on us!"

"Hehe Uncle Wang, you don't have to be angry, my Uncle Xiong really doesn't know that I understand this, I learned that little bit of skin 'hair' when I was in college in the capital, I was a buddy in an antique shop, and I just showed off, so I want to ask the two seniors to comment in person!"

The two liars said in their hearts, you say so much, more professional than both of us, and comment! But the two of them still have the last killer feature, Jia Liar pointed to the appraisal certificate and said: "Listening to the words of the young man just now, it seems that my thing is fake, fortunately, I have the appraisal certificate signed by the old man Dongfang Rui, otherwise I will suspect that it is fake!"

"Oh yes! I really didn't expect us to be so fateful, you wait a minute!" said Xu Yang and took out his out-of-print mobile phone with blue light. A phone call came, and the first sentence almost didn't make these people sit on the ground:

"Old man Rui, have a good New Year!" A few people thought that it wouldn't be so evil, this kid wouldn't really know Dongfang Rui! At this time, the two liars already wanted to leave!
