Chapter 286: Sharpening the Spear in Battle

The preliminary round of the national appraisal competition will be held in February, and the provinces and cities will decide on their own, and the final will be held in Sijiu City at the end of April.

Xinran and the four apprentices of the appraisal masters borrowed the light of the masters, and entered the re-examination directly without the exam, and the masters of several of them, that is, the four national treasure-level appraisal masters, waited for the finals at the end of April.

When they came back from Shencheng, it was already mid-April, and it was soon time for the appraiser finals.

Ai Lao has been a little anxious these days, and when he has time, he will happily open a small stove.

From the jade ceramic bells and tripods of the Xia, Shang and Western Zhou dynasties, to a large number of antique knowledge in the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, review it from beginning to end, afraid of missing something. From Wang Xizhi's calligraphy to Xu Beihong's galloping horse, as well as the calligraphy of the eight masters of the Tang and Song dynasties, the ear mentioned the face and ordered the respectful admonition.

Every day, a large amount of antique knowledge is poured into Xinran's mind, like a hundred rivers returning to the sea.

She frowned and shouted sadly: "Master, how many times have you said it, I remember it. ”

Ai Lao knocked on her little head: "You remember, you have to use it freely, what's the use of just remembering." ”

He remembered that the knowledge of fakes had not yet been systematically explained, so he took out the real thing and compared it, and started a new round of bombardment.

"Ru, official, brother, Jun, Ding five famous kilns should be Ru kiln porcelain for the most, later generations, the family has thousands of family wealth, not as good as Ru kiln, it can be seen that it is precious. It is precisely because of the preciousness that fake porcelain ...... emerge one after another. ”

"Zhilu Dao, master!" Gladly replied weakly.

"It's not that Master knows the Dao, it's you who knows." Ai Lao deliberately picked thorns, lest the girl not have to study. Sure enough, I saw the apprentice grinning. He continued.

"Judging that Ru kiln porcelain is as thin as the sky and clear as a mirror, that is to say, Ru kiln porcelain is as thin as paper. Transparent as a mirror, this is one of the characteristics of judging whether Ru kiln porcelain is not. Just because the Ru kiln porcelain is ultra-thin. Therefore, the number of surviving is very small, and its value is expensive. Ru kiln porcelain is generally a single tone, its color has a proper saying, 'rain over the sky and clouds break through', since you say that you know the way, talk about the color of Ru kiln. ”

"After the rain, the sky is clear and the white clouds are broken, which is the ultimate color in the sky after the rain." Happily rolled his eyes, needless to say, the master is now stupid.

She sighed in her heart: Master, hello inkblot! I just came back from going out and there are a lot of things to do, and you're still competing with me for time like this. Isn't it just an appraiser competition, if you can't pass the exam, there will be a next time, what are you anxious about?

Ai Lao didn't understand the apprentice's mind at all, and he got angry when he saw her learning to slip the number.

This appraiser competition is very important in his heart, to put it bluntly, it is a contest between several old brothers, in case someone else's apprentice is admitted, his apprentice is not admitted, and several old brothers talk about it, and their faces are shameless! If you can trample a few old fellows' apprentices under your feet. It's definitely a big deal.

Ai Lao seized all the time and began to explain again.

"Girl, remember, in addition to the five famous kilns, there are also firewood kilns and bone kilns. The image description of the firewood kiln: blue as the sky, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, sound like chime.

The true portrayal of bone china: white as jade, bright as a mirror, thin as paper, and sound like chime.

If you don't believe it. You can take a bone china cup or bowl and put it under the light, the delicacy and transparency of the porcelain will definitely amaze you; The glaze of bone china is smooth. Crystal clear, ordinary porcelain is simply not comparable to bone china. With that, he carefully took out a fragment of a bone kiln. Let the apprentice shine on the light.

Seeing that the apprentice really understood, Ai Lao began to talk about the official kiln porcelain again: "The official kiln started from the Song Dynasty. Emperor Gaozong of the Song Dynasty built the capital Lin'an in the south, repaired two official kilns, and then continued them over the years.

The porcelain of the official kiln is delicate and solid, the wall is thin, and the tire color is black or purple-brown; The glaze color is azure, pink blue, moon white, putty, green, etc., the glaze layer is fat and lush, the jade texture is very strong, and the glaze has a variety of open pieces; There are bowls, plates, plates, washers, etc. ”

"The official kiln of the Song Dynasty is different from other official kilns is characterized by the charm of the utensils, which is also the most difficult place for counterfeiters in later generations to imitate, counterfeiters can achieve or even surpass the official kiln of the Song Dynasty from the process of making and firing, but its difference in temperament from the charm can not escape the eyes of experts."

Xinran has a lot of things to do these days, and I can only do it during the day. The evenings must be devoted to studying, and everything makes way for the appraiser competition.

Ai Lao was afraid that she would be distracted, so he prepared a thin wicker stick in his hand that was similar to the shape of a teaching whip, and if he didn't pay attention to the lecture, he would hit her on the back.

Now Ai Lao doesn't let people accompany him, when is it, of course, one-on-one education is effective. Murong Ji, a stinky boy, always made trouble when he listened to the class, so he simply got out of the way.

Murong Ji saw the small whip prepared by Ai Lao, worried about his lover, and ran outside the door to eavesdrop.

Whenever there was the sound of wicker waving inside, his eyelids fluttered and his heart trembled. My wife has fine skin and tender meat, don't hurt it.

He scolded Ai Lao in his heart: The stinky old man has to be corporal punishment when he lectures, it's really not a thing! In vain, he eats and drinks well every day and treats him respectfully.

He hid at the door and listened for a while, but he couldn't stand the mental torture, so he left cautiously and returned to the backyard to ask for help: "Big brother, you quickly think of a way, Ai Lao is beating his wife......." ”

Long Tianba's deep eyes dimmed, and he didn't say a word, pacing slowly in the room with his hands behind his back, not knowing what Lu Dao was thinking.

Murong Ji gestured with both hands, jumped to his feet and continued to shout: "Big brother, the wicker is so thick and long, I have heard the sound of waving several times......." ”

Long Tianba still didn't say a word. Haoqi couldn't sit still: "Third brother, I'll go to the front with you to have a look." ”

Hearing that the two brothers were so breathless, Long Tianba raised his eyebrows and said to them dissatisfied.

"Ai Lao won't really fight, and it won't hurt if he does, look at your nervous appearance, sit down for me."

"Big brother, I heard it all, what if it hurts...... Murong Ji was frightened by the momentum of his eldest brother, stopped, and muttered unwillingly.

"No one is allowed to go!" Long Tianba said to them sharply.

Haoqi and Murong Ji looked at each other, so they had to honestly guard in the backyard. Murong Ji went to the door after a while, looked out through the night outside, listened to the sound of the front yard, and prayed in his heart, wife, if you are going to be beaten and hurt and shout loudly, I will go to save you.

In the living room of the front yard, after Ai Lao finished talking about Ru Yao, he carefully went to the bag and opened a rectangular box, which placed two silk wraps, and solemnly opened them, inside were two identical Ru kiln fine-mouth bottles, and the porcelain a few centimeters high was fluttering lightly.

Xinran hurriedly cleaned up the coffee table, if the porcelain was broken, it would not be distressed to death by the master.

Ai Lao continued to explain: "Fake porcelain has no sense of historical vicissitudes, and second, there is no flawless stain, the sense of historical vicissitudes cannot be forged, it is a kind of old traces, imitation porcelain must be old, and the old porcelain looks like it is old at first, but it is not. They can be distinguished in the feel, the fake tentacles are rough, the real ones are round and delicate, you can understand these two pieces of porcelain when you touch them, one true and one false, I will test your ....... ”

I am glad to know that the old appraisers often use touch identification of ancient porcelain, which looks the same porcelain, and the feel of the two pieces of porcelain is indeed different.

She touched it carefully, and a piece of porcelain felt like it was touching a smooth satin. Another piece of porcelain is not, giving people an astringent feeling, and it is quickly found that the real is fake. I closed my eyes and felt it again, and understood how touch distinguishes porcelain.

"Generally, fakes are imitated more than the real thing, which loses the original flavor of porcelain, and fakes all pursue perfection, but let people see the flaws, no matter how perfect an ancient porcelain is, there will be flawless stains, which were made by handicrafts in the past, even more so."

Ai Lao finished summing up, and talked about ancient porcelain to modern porcelain.

Xinran suddenly remembered one thing, modern porcelain has the most famous porcelain called 'Mao porcelain', the first time I met Mao porcelain in Panjiayuan, and later sold it to Ai Lao for two million, only to be accepted by Ai Lao as an apprentice.

Ai Lao found that the apprentice had slipped away, and the little wicker stick flicked and hit Xin and then on the back again: "Pay attention to the class, don't think that you have learned a little bit and stagnate, you must know that the learning of the Tao is endless, your master still has to study at a great age, you are about to take the exam, and you have to think about other things." ”

I was pleased to see Ai Lao's tense face and angry expression, and hurriedly said: "Master, I was wrong, don't be angry with your old man." ”

Ai Lao's face was still sinking like water: "What's the use of apologizing, don't take the first place in this appraiser competition, don't come home to see me." ”

I was glad to hear that the matter was serious, and it was necessary to sign the Treaty of Shimonoseki. There is no way, Master is so old that he can't make his old man angry, so he nodded hurriedly: "Master, I promise to take the exam well and strive to get the championship back, you can rest assured." ”

Ai Lao's heart was overjoyed when he heard this, this opportunity must be grasped well, listening to the tone of the apprentice, the champion of this competition is already in her bag, so it really works.

He often finds the magic of his apprentices, and he secretly keeps it in his heart. I hope that the apprentice will surprise him once this time, so he will adopt the strategy of pressing step by step......

After a few hours of teaching, he saw that the apprentice was impatient, and he was tired of speaking, so he said: "You review the part you just talked about first, and I'll go back today." "I walked back with a great mentality.

Murong Ji listened to the sound of the front yard in the backyard frequently, and finally heard the sound of the gate: It must be the dead old man who went back after the lecture, my God, it's been more than four hours, it's really terrible.

He ran out of the front yard and into the living room, and saw that his lover was still stupidly writing something in the notebook.

It's stupid! Hurriedly ran to his lover's side and looked up and down, left and right, and took a closer look.

Xinran wondered in her heart: "Murong Ji, what are you doing?" ”

"I think you've been beaten stupidly, or you've learned to be stupid!"

glared at the other party fiercely: "You're stupid!" ”

Long Tianba and Haoqi, who were following behind Murong Fuselage, let out a sigh.

At the end of April, the sun was shining, and the final of the Chinese young appraiser was held as scheduled. (To be continued......)
