Chapter Seventy-Six: Song Dynasty Porcelain Pillows

The Jade Buddha Temple is not close to Ye Yu's house, and it takes about fifty minutes for a taxi to arrive, which is still without traffic jams.

There are many food stalls at the entrance of the Jade Buddha Temple, Ye Yu took Yaoyao to eat something there, the old stinky tofu shop is still there, their stinky tofu tastes really good, Ye Yu used to come every time he came like that.

Sure enough, Yaoyao also fell in love with his stinky tofu and ate it all over her mouth.

After eating, the lights are on, and the hutong next to the Jade Buddha Temple has just begun.

The street lights in this small alley are very bright, and they are all big white lights, which are said to have been specially changed by someone to facilitate night trading in this market.

When Ye Yu took Yaoyao's hand and walked into the alley, there were already two worlds inside and outside the alley, and the lights in the alley were as bright as day, and they were very lively.

The alley is very narrow, and there are only four people walking side by side after setting up the stall, so you don't have to think about the car, and it is difficult to pass the bicycle with many people, but the alley is very deep, and it takes at least ten minutes to walk from this end to that end.

This is normal walking, if you look at it while walking, it is normal to walk all night without reaching the end.

It was just dark, there were already a lot of people in this meeting, almost next to each other, Ye Yu held Yaoyao's hand tightly and asked her to follow him, there are not many people like Ye Yu who come to visit the antique stall with their children, and his appearance has attracted a lot of attention.

There are a lot of things on the stalls, all kinds of things, all kinds of things.

There are small terracotta figurines that look old, as well as all kinds of ancient coins and all kinds of jade, as well as some silver dollars, old banknotes, etc., but most of these things are fake and can only be treated as handicrafts.

There are a lot of things, Ye Yu simply opened the Polar Eye directly, which looks more intuitive.

Sure enough, under the extreme eye, it was miserable.

The vendor Ye Yu saw, except for some of the copper coins that were real, were all fake, and the worst thing was the jade, none of which were real, not even jade, plastic and glass.

This kind of thing can only bluff people who are new to the industry and don't understand it at all.

Fortunately, what they sell is not expensive, it is not a deception, you can take it for dozens of yuan, you can bargain for ten yuan, it is completely sold as a handicraft.

After walking a few vendors in a row, Ye Yu didn't have any desire to buy at all.

"Fake, how dare you sell it so expensive!"

"The poems are not right, but they are true!"

As I was walking, there was a noisy sound in front of me, and there was a clearing not far from the alley, and a dense bamboo was planted next to it, and there used to be personal transactions next to the bamboo forest.

It is agreed between the two parties, I have what you want, and then come here to trade.

Later, some people brought their own treasures to sell, most of them insisted that their treasures were real and good, but few people bought them, and I once heard that someone had picked up a leak there, but Ye Yu had never seen it, so he could only listen to it as a story.

Ye Yu took Yaoyao's hand and walked over, and when he got closer, he realized that someone was selling a porcelain pillow there.

The appearance of the porcelain pillow is very good, black and white, there is a piece of yellow on the pillow, this is a doll porcelain pillow, the whole porcelain pillow is a doll wearing a belly pocket lying there, very cute.

When he came, Ye Yu closed his eyes, this will not be opened yet, he will not see this porcelain pillow at first sight, Ye Yu feels very unusual.

This porcelain pillow does not look like a fake, no matter the workmanship or glaze color, there is no trace of modern imitation, it is natural.

Nature is the most important, and there will always be something unnatural about artificially old.

"This is true, it's not a fake, you don't buy it and leave!"

Holding the porcelain pillow was a little boy of eighteen or nineteen years old, frowning angrily, and there was a burst of laughter next to him.

"I've seen this young man, and I've been to the treasure appraisal site before, and the expert has already said that it's fake, and he hasn't even passed the audition, but he doesn't believe it, and he comes here to sell it again!"

One of them said suddenly, and Ye Yu looked at the boy again.

Nowadays, there are many kinds of treasure appreciation programs, and even some treasure appreciation activities are not on TV at all, purely to attract people under the guise of TV stations, just to collect information on folk treasures.

Their auction company is a loyal customer of this kind of guise, and a lot of the data is bought from them.

"That expert is a liar, he lied to me that it was fake, and then he found someone to buy my things cheaply, I was not fooled!"

The boy suddenly screamed again, and it was not unheard of that this situation had happened.

Some unscrupulous experts took a fancy to the treasure holder's treasure, deliberately saying that it was a fake, and then sent someone to buy it at a low price to seek huge profits, this kind of thing has also been on the news, but because no one was on the scene of the transaction between the two sides, and there was no evidence, in the end it was all over.

"I'll take a look!"

Ye Yu pulled Yaoyao and walked closer, and when he spoke, the extreme eye opened again, and under the extreme eye, everything about the porcelain pillow was clear at a glance.

The glaze of the porcelain pillow is natural, there is no trace of the old, although the glaze has a lot of shortcomings under the pole, but that is caused by the past technology, not fake.

The porcelain fetus is very real, the exposed fetus is natural, and the porcelain pillow is naturally written and painted when it is fired, whether it is the pattern or the poem.

This is a real porcelain pillow, and it is a porcelain pillow of the Song Dynasty, and it is really not a fake.

Ye Yu started the debate again, there are many kinds of smells on the porcelain pillow, but it is indeed a very ancient thing, the glaze and the taste of the porcelain fetus are the most ancient, this porcelain pillow has been slept on by many people, and there is a lot of human hair smell left on it.

The taste of being too far away is very light, but there are still people who have slept in the past ten years, which Ye Yu can confirm.

"Who sleeps on such a hard pillow?"

A person next to him suddenly said something, the person who spoke was not young, at least over forty years old, as soon as he finished speaking, many people looked at him, most of them with a little ridicule and disdain in their eyes.

One of them said with a smile: "Many pillows in ancient times were so hard, and some people used logs to make pillows directly, we are definitely not used to it now, but it was like this back then!"

The pillows of the ancient people were indeed very hard, but they were not without soft pillows, but most of them were used when it was very cold in winter.

"Brother, are they right?" Yaoyao suddenly raised her head and asked Ye Yu.

"That uncle is right, the ancient pillows are different from ours now, most of them are hard pillows in ancient times, originally stone pillows, and then there are wooden pillows, bamboo pillows, pottery pillows, porcelain pillows, princes and nobles and jade pillows, gold pillows and so on!"

Ye Yu whispered to Yaoyao to explain, and Yaoyao looked at the pillow in the boy's hand.

Ye Yu explained in detail, although his voice was small, but the people around him could hear it, and many people nodded silently, this young man also looked very young, but he really understood a lot.

Compared to the man who said just now that the pillow was hard and no one slept on, it was much stronger.

Just from simple words, you can let the people around you tell who is an old player and who is a chick, obviously, Ye Yu is an old player in everyone's eyes.

"Is this a porcelain pillow?" Yaoyao asked again, pointing to the boy.

After hesitating, Ye Yu still nodded and said, "That's right, this is a typical Song Dynasty porcelain pillow!"

Song Dynasty porcelain pillow?

Still typical?

There was an uproar around in an instant, this young man heard him just say that there were still two hits, but he didn't expect it to be a mallet, such a fake thing, and even said that it was a porcelain pillow in the Song Dynasty.

"Young man, you mean, this is the shape of a porcelain pillow in the Song Dynasty, right?"

The person who explained the ancient porcelain pillow before couldn't help but say something, and he could see that he was a person who liked to talk, and at the same time, he didn't have bad intentions, so he took the initiative to help Ye Yu explain.

"No, I think this is a Song Dynasty porcelain pillow!"

Ye Yu shook his head again, he didn't think about picking up something or something, what to say, the boy himself insisted that things were right, he couldn't deliberately say that it was fake just to buy other people's things.

This will make him believe the boy's words a little, he went to the treasure appraisal site, the expert may really be in order to deceive him, deliberately said that it was a fake, and then let people buy it at a low price.

After many people are identified as fakes by experts, they are not so confident in the treasure in their hands, and if someone gives a similar price, many people will sell it.

Those unscrupulous experts can do this, but he can't, and he still has the bottom line.

"Impossible, look at this poem, the poems are all wrong!"

The person who helped Ye Yu speak just now immediately took a step forward, pointed to the front of the porcelain pillow in the boy's hand, and said excitedly, and the spit spittled out, making Yaoyao quickly bow her head.

The poem he was referring to was two lines of poetry written on the front of the porcelain pillow.

Porcelain pillows have been popular since the Sui Dynasty, and the Tang and Song dynasties have carried forward, especially during the Song Dynasty, the economy has developed, and many people can use such pillows, so there are a lot of them.

However, the common people use the most ordinary porcelain pillows, this kind of porcelain pillows with shapes, colors and poems can only be used by the landlord's family, that is, the rich at that time.

On the front of the porcelain pillow, there are two lines of poetry, 'The leaves fall and the ape cries frost all over the sky, and the fisherman by the river sleeps!', and the man refers to these two sentences.

"This poem happens to know that it is Zhang Ji's "Fengqiao Night Park" in the Tang Dynasty, and the correct way to write it should be 'The moon falls and the sky is full of frost, and Jiang Feng fishes and fires are sad and sleepy' instead of Ye Luo and Jiangbian, if you don't believe it, go search and see if what I said is right!"

The man continued, a little proud.

"Fengqiao Night Park" is a poem written by a famous poet in the Tang Dynasty, and the poem is indeed the same as what he said, he is right.

Just now, he has been insisting that this porcelain pillow is fake, and the shape is good, but the poem is obviously wrong, so it is fake.

He also concluded that the counterfeiter was uneducated, and wanted to write more poems to highlight the porcelain pillow and make the porcelain pillow more valuable, but he wrote it incorrectly without thinking about it, which became the best ironclad evidence that this is a fake.

The boy was a little anxious, and before he could speak, Ye Yu suddenly smiled slightly and asked, "Uncle, who told you that the poems on the ancient porcelain pillow must be written in accordance with the original text?"

The man who spoke just now was stunned, and just wanted to distinguish it, Ye Yu said again: "Uncle, even now, we also have the habit of changing the lyrics and changing some words, this is not a document, let alone a history book, why can't we change it?"

Ye Yu smiled, and the man's eyes widened just now.
