314 Black pottery

"Mr. Xu, you continue to look at the jade carvings. My cousin and I will go to look at the antiques." Murong said delicately.

She has business to do, unlike her hands-off shopkeeper, so she proposed to split up.

"Then what should I do?" Ning Xin'er was in a dilemma. She was alone, so she couldn't take care of it at the same time.

"Go with Mr. Xu and the others, and go back to the hotel to pay the bill." Murong Xianxian said.

"Then be careful." Shen Huixin and Xu Peijia didn't insist either, and after giving instructions, they followed Ning Xiner to continue shopping in Jade Street, while Murong Xianxian, Jiang Caijing and Tuxuan turned into the old street selling antiques.

Most of the shops in the old street still sell jade wares. There are also two real jade wares processing workshops. It's not really an antique, so it depends on the eyesight of the judges.

After passing through a few stalls that were not of any good quality, a rather large stall appeared in front of my eyes, with ceramics, ancient coins, ancient jade... It was quite complete, and there were even two strings of court beads worn by officials of the Qing Dynasty.

"Hey, three ladies, if you pass by, don't miss it. I have a few treasures here that you can't see in other places..."

The stall owner's saliva was obviously not convincing, Jiang Caijing dozed off, Murong Xianxian just thought he was a wild donkey farting, only Tu Xuan looked at the stall owner with a bit of admiration... It can be said that after spraying so much saliva, there is no expression of thirst at all. "

"Xianxian, look here first, I'll take a look around."

Jiang Caijing was really stupefied, she was a little dizzy looking at the 'antiques' like porcelain, in her opinion, according to what the stall owner said, all the goods on this stall were antiques, and they were expensive.Although she is not very good at it, she also knows that there is absolutely no such reason.Anyway, with Murong Xianxian watching here, she simply slipped away.

"Go ahead."

Murong Xianxian replied smoothly, she was squatting there holding a big vase and looking at it, she didn't hear clearly what Jiang Caijing said.

"Your eyesight is really good. This is the blue and white porcelain from Emperor Qianlong's reign. It's worth your money to keep it..." The street vendor said a lot.

"How much?" Murong Xianxian interrupted him, if he let him do his best, he might have to prepare dinner here.

"Buy it, [-]." The vendor had a bloody expression on his face.

"Aren't you afraid of chipping your teeth?"

Murong Xianxian rolled her eyes, turned over the bottom of the bottle, and pointed to the words on the bottom of the bottle: "This is a simplified character. Do you recognize it?"

"Yes." The stall owner nodded innocently.

"Then let me popularize some knowledge for you."

Murong Xianxian: "Simplified characters began to be called for in the 20s, but the final large-scale implementation was after the 50s. Is it possible that the master who fired porcelain for Qianlong was also a person who traveled through history?"

"Uh...haha, sometimes I got it wrong. It seems that I was fooled too. Later, I will find the guy who cheated me. Fortunately, I was discovered by you, otherwise I, the dumb, will suffer." The stall owner His face was a little embarrassing, but people like him still have a strong ability to adjust their mentality.A smile appeared on his face immediately, "You are looking at something else, let me introduce you..."

"no."

Murong Xianxian shook her head.Let him introduce it again, why not introduce her to the ditch?

"The Persian cat in my family broke the food bowl. Just find an old bowl... Hey, this one is quite suitable. It's not too dark, and it's not too big or too small. That's it." Murong Xianxian casually took it out from the stall. A large black porcelain bowl said.

"This one is black porcelain... You give 2000 yuan, and this bowl will be taken away." The stall owner said listlessly.

"Boss, are you looking for my pleasure?"

Murong Xianxian was not happy anymore: "I spent 2000 yuan to buy a cat food bowl. Whether I am sick or you are sick, the maximum is five yuan."

"Miss, what are you kidding, how can there be such a counter-offer? I have all antiques here. One thousand and eight hundred, no less." The stall owner put on an unaccommodating appearance.

"It's all antiques?"

Murong Xianxian squinted at him: "Just the simplified character Gu Gong?"

"Cough..." The stall owner coughed from choking, and his face turned red after a long time.A bit angrily said: "Are you going to threaten me?"

"wrong!"

Murong Xianxian corrected with a smile: "I'm just threatening you!"

"you……"

The stall owner was so angry that he said "you" for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth: "Take the ten yuan away."

"Ten yuan?"

Murong Xianxian frowned: "Just this one bowl? Forget it, ten yuan is ten yuan."

Reluctantly, she took out ten yuan and handed it to the stall owner.

"Ugh!"

The stall owner let out a long sigh... the ten yuan is not even enough to take a taxi. Fortunately, a rough porcelain bowl is not worth much, and no one cares about it after three or four months. Give up money and eliminate disasters.In fact, everyone knows that it is impossible for the products on every booth to be antiques, but the problem of "simplified characters for antiques" is too much of a joke.

Today is a good day... Murong Xianxian really wanted to play a song, but thinking that this thing is not her own, she might as well forget it after thinking about it.However, having this thing in hand can save Jiang Caijing from being verbose.

Someone said, what's so great about a large thick porcelain bowl?

Yes, black porcelain, white porcelain, blue and white porcelain are all nothing special, the key is that this porcelain is extraordinary, it is Longshan black pottery.

Porcelain in our country appeared in the Neolithic Age, and red pottery first appeared.Red pottery appeared first in China, and the firing temperature of red pottery was around 900 degrees. According to archaeological excavations, the Peiligang Culture in the Yellow River Basin 8000 years ago, and the Yangshao Culture and Dawenkou Culture 5000 years ago were all made of clay. Red pottery and red Chu pottery with sand are the main ones.

Black pottery appeared in the Longshan culture period.The firing temperature of black pottery is about 1000 degrees. There are three types of black pottery: fine mud, mud and sand. Among them, fine mud and thin-walled black pottery have the highest production level, which has the reputation of "black as paint, thin as paper".The clay of this kind of black pottery has been washed, wheeled, and the thickness of the tire wall is only 0.5-1 mm. After being polished, it is fired into a pitch black and bright. It is known as "eggshell pottery" and has shown amazing skills.The black pottery of this period is mostly polished on plain surface, and less decorated, such as string pattern, scratch pattern, hollow hole and so on.

Murong Xianxian is not good at archaeology, but she knows a lot about ceramics. This is mainly learned under Zhu Guoen's influence. If it is to test other ancient cultural relics knowledge, it will be much worse.

And she also knows one thing... There are thousands of museums in the world today, but there are less than seven museums that can store black pottery.I heard that two years ago, the famous Gartex Auction House auctioned a black pottery pot and sold it for 540 million Hong Kong dollars. The price of this pottery bowl will definitely not be lower than that one.

Modern collectors try their best to search for it, and regard collecting a piece of Longshan black pottery as an honor. Therefore, it is absolutely no problem for Jiang Caijing to use it as a gift.

After the transaction, when Murong Xianxian was about to find Jiang Caijing, Jiang Caijing came out from nowhere, and seemed to be holding an ancient jade in her hand.

"Cousin, today's trip is really worth it, let me show you." Murong Xianxian snickered alone for a while, and when she saw the master coming, she wanted to show off, so she grabbed her and held the dog Tao Wanqing showed her.

Jiang Caijing saw Murong Xianxian's mysterious words, so she looked at it carefully... After seeing it, she was very disappointed, and said with disdain: "Cut! What's so good about a black bulag clay bowl? Thought you were holding a cornucopia."

"Double word cut!"

Murong Xianxian showed even greater disdain for someone: "Cousin, this pottery bowl is still a cornucopia..."

You need to be tireless in teaching people, Murong Xianxian is not as knowledgeable as Jiang Caijing, and triumphantly explained the origin and value of Longshan black pottery. Seeing her eyes shining, she felt extremely satisfied... The sense of satisfaction is beyond the reach of ordinary people, and the beauty of it is not enough to speak to outsiders.

"Is it as mysterious as you said?" Jiang Caijing couldn't believe it, she couldn't see anything unusual about this pottery bowl.

"What do you know?"

Murong Xian gave her a white look, shook his head and said: "I have a treasure bowl, which has been imprisoned by the dust for a long time, and once the dust is gone, it is worth tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars!"

"What's the mess? You must have been punched in the eye, right?" Jiang Caijing asked.

"I'm still smashing my head!"

Murong Xianxian and the others were already far away from the 'Simplified Characters Antiques' stall, but in order to avoid trouble, she still took Jiang Caijing and walked a few steps quickly, and then said: "If you don't believe me, go back and have a look. Tuxuan, you go Look in the nearby shop to see if they sell tung oil and white gauze... Well, are you okay?"

"Yes." Tu Xuan agreed, turned and left.

"Hey, Xianxian, what do you think of this piece of ancient jade I bought?" Murong Xianxian asked.

Ancient jade?

Murong Xianxian took a look at the stone-like jade in her hand... She didn't quite understand the other parts of this jade, but there was a trace of yin energy wrapped around it, it was really an ancient jade.

"Cousin, how much did you pay for this piece of ancient jade?" Murong Xianxian asked.

"Not much, twenty thousand." Jiang Caijing said.

"It's not expensive. If you want to sell it, it's worth at least a dozen or 20. However,"

She paused slightly: "You suggest that you don't use this as a birthday present."

"Why?" Jiang Caijing couldn't understand.

"Do you know where this kind of ancient jade is usually kept?" Murong Xianxian asked.

"I don't know, is it worn on the body?" Jiang Caijing was not sure.

"It's on the body, but it's not worn, but stuffed into the body." Murong Xianxian said.

"Uh……"

Jiang Caijing suddenly felt like throwing up, and of course she knew where it was accidentally stuffed.Please search, the novel is better and updated faster!
