Jianbao life

Chapter 288

After that, under the leadership of Professor Shi, everyone walked around every corner of the villa. The antique and natural decoration style, combined with the carved lacquer furniture bought from Qinzhou, looks comfortable and full of Everyone's demeanor embodies a kind of elegant, reserved, dignified and rich oriental spiritual realm.

This kind of decoration style made Chu Chen and his parents very satisfied. After checking the security facilities, Chu Chen immediately signed his name on the contract.

After that, the group drove to the bank to transfer money, and then they said goodbye to each other and left.

Seeing Chu Chen's car go away, the female student of Professor Shi asked curiously, "Teacher, who is that Secretary Chu?"

Professor Shi shook his head and said, "I told you to pay attention to current affairs, but you don't listen. You don't even know Chu Yongning?"

The person in charge of the construction immediately came to his senses and asked in surprise, "Chu Yongning? Professor Shi, you are talking about the second son of Mr. Chu, the one who works in the discipline inspection department?"

"Yes, it's him. If there are no accidents, he will become an executive in the next world, and then he will be the leader of the country." Professor Shi said with emotion.

After hearing Professor Shi's words, all the other people present looked at each other in blank dismay. They didn't expect that the seemingly gentle family just now had such a prominent background, which made them a little hard to believe.

"Hmph! It's still from the Disciplinary Inspection Department. It's probably not a good person to be able to afford such a big villa." The female student murmured.

"Xiao Yang, don't talk nonsense!" Professor Shi said with a stern expression: "The money for this villa is all earned by Xiao Chu, and it has nothing to do with his family!"

"Impossible? How old is he? How could he make so much money by himself!" the female student said with disbelief.

"It's hard to be fooled by appearances!" At this point, Professor Shi briefly told everyone about Chu Chen's stone betting experience that he heard from Liu Qinshu, and everyone who heard it was dumbfounded.In fact, let alone them, when Professor Shi heard Liu Qinshu talk about it, he was not much better than them.

....................................

Not long after Chu Chen returned to Jinxiu Garden, he received a call from Director Niu. It turned out that his son came back yesterday, so he wanted to invite Chu Chen to dinner today to express his gratitude.

On the phone, Director Niu was very enthusiastic, and Chu Chen had no choice but to agree.

After that, Chu Chen read the book for a while, and when the time was almost up, he greeted his mother and drove to the agreed place.

The restaurant Director Niu ordered was actually the "Eight Treasures Jade Food" opened by Zhao Qirui. When Chu Chen arrived there, Director Niu and a man in his thirties were already waiting for him at the door.

Director Niu saw Chu Chen get out of the car, and quickly led the man up to meet him.

"Young Master Chu, you are here. Let me introduce you. This is my useless son, Niu Junfeng." Director Niu Chu Chen greeted him, and quickly introduced his son to Chu Chen.

"Hello, Young Master Chu!" Niu Junfeng hurriedly greeted Chu Chen respectfully.

Chu Chen shook hands with him, and said with a smile, "Don't be so polite. Speaking of which, your name is quite similar to my second brother. His name is Chu Junfeng, but he is the "Feng" of "Great Wind."

While speaking, he took the opportunity to size up Niu Junfeng.

To say that the image of Niu Junfeng fits his name quite well, not only is he handsome, but he is also very tall. He is estimated to be more than 1.9 meters tall. There is also a kind of fearless temperament that soldiers often have, and the whole person looks quite extraordinary.

Chu Chen heard from his uncle that Niu Junfeng's performance in the army has always been excellent, and his first impression of Niu Junfeng was very good, which gradually made him look at Niu Junfeng with a sense of appreciation.

Director Niu knew that his son was a bit rigid. If his son hadn't been too rigid, based on his merits, he would not have been able to get a spot like he is now if he pleaded with the leader.

It was precisely because his son was too rigid that Director Niu was also worried that he would lose his image in front of Chu Chen. Now seeing that Chu Chen had a good impression of his son, he was immediately overjoyed.

After the two parties exchanged a few words, Director Niu led Chu Chen to the private room he reserved, and asked the waiter to start serving the dishes.

Needless to say, the serving speed of the Bazhen Jade Food was very fast. After a short while, the table was filled with delicious dishes. After Mr. Niu and Niu Junfeng paid respects to Chu Chen, everyone began to drink and drink.

Although Niu Junfeng was a bit rigid, he was very eloquent when he talked about the affairs in the army. It just so happened that Chu Chen was also very interested in this aspect. One asked and the other said. Director Niu, who was worried that the banquet would be boring before, couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Director Niu took out two brocade boxes.

Seeing this, Chu Chen immediately said, "Director Niu, what do you mean?"

Director Niu said with a smile, "Young Master Chu, a small gift is not a respect. Don't worry, it's not something expensive. It's just an old thing passed down from my ancestors."

Chu Chen didn't take the things, and said with a frown, "That's not okay. I helped you this time because you helped me before. If you don't get rewarded for nothing, you should take the things back!"

Director Niu said with a smile on his face: "Young Master Chu, my family is all rough people. It would be wasteful to keep things like this at home. I think keeping them in your hands will make the best use of them."

"No!" Chu Chen firmly refused: "Director Niu, if you don't take it back, I will leave!"

Director Niu saw that Chu Chen was resolutely unwilling to accept it, so he could only switch to a backup plan. He pretended to hesitate for a while, and said, "Young Master Chu, there is really no one in our family who likes antiques. Staying at home will undoubtedly bury them. , how about this, I will transfer them to you, do you think it will work?"

Chu Chen thought about it for a while, and felt that it would be unreasonable not to agree to this, so he said: "Director Niu, it is possible to transfer it, but there is one point that we must make clear in advance, and the things must be collected at the market price. "

"Young Master Chu, after all, you have helped Junfeng so much. If you charge at the market price, then if you say it, others will not poke my old cow's back! Why don't you give me a discount, okay?"

"Then how much discount do you want?"

"five……"

"Ok?"

"Eight...then let's get [-]% off. Now the clothes in the store don't offer [-]% off or something, and [-]% off is already high. Young Master Chu, don't refuse."

Seeing Director Niu's frowning look, Chu Chen couldn't help laughing. Thinking about the future, the two sides will be regarded as a line, and there is no need for such a relationship, so he said: "Okay, I agree."

Director Niu was very happy after hearing the words, and quickly handed the brocade box to Chu Chen and said, "Young Master Chu, let's take a look first."

"We can't watch it like this now, let's talk about it after dinner." Chu Chen pointed to the dishes on the table and said.

"Yes, yes, yes! Look at me, I forgot about this..."

Satisfied with wine and food, Director Niu asked the waiter to clean up the table, and asked the waiter to make a cup of tea for everyone, and then put the two brocade boxes on the table.

Director Niu opened one of the brocade boxes and said, "Young Master Chu, take a look at these two small bowls first. I heard from the appraiser earlier, what kind of bowls are these?"

Chu Chen looked into the brocade box and said with a smile, "This is called a rabbit hair lamp."

"That's right! It's called Tuhaozhan. You can take a look first and see if you're satisfied." Director Niu nodded.

"Okay, let me take a look first."

With that said, Chu Chen picked up a rabbit hair lamp and looked it over carefully.

Tuhaozhan is actually a kind of black-glazed porcelain fired by Jianyang Kiln in Jianyang, Southeast Province.

Jianyang kiln is one of the famous kilns in Song Dynasty, also known as "Jian'an kiln" and "Wuni kiln". It began in the late Tang Dynasty, flourished in Song Dynasty, and declined in Yuan Dynasty.Mainly firing celadon, black glazed porcelain, blue and white porcelain and so on.

Jian kiln fired the most small bowls, with black mud-colored fetal bones and many strips of crystal grains on the glaze, as thin as rabbit fur, called "rabbit bowls".There are also "partridge spots" and "silver star spots" fired, which are unique and beautiful.

Underglaze fine lines are the acidification traces formed by the acidic glaze for decoration. Because the kiln porcelain is fired upwards, the glaze water droops, and the glaze color on the edge of the finished product is light.Due to the different inclinations of the vessel walls, the flow velocity is fast, forming slender hairlines, while the flow velocity is slightly slower and thicker, forming the shape of rabbit hairs.Some of the bottoms are engraved with the words "Gongyu" and "Jin", which are tribute porcelain.

In fact, black-glazed porcelain such as rabbit hair lamps was not valued by people in the past, and its rise also has historical origins at that time.

In the early Song Dynasty, with the change of the way of tea tasting from "decocted drinking" to "ordered drinking", the custom of fighting tea began to prevail among the folks in southeastern provinces. "Dou Cha" is also called "Ming Zhan", that is, the outcome is determined by fighting posture.Tea fighting is not only about judging the quality of tea, it is essentially an artistic tea event in pursuit of spiritual pleasure.

With the rise of fighting tea, in order to set off the white tea soup and distinguish water marks, the "Jian Kiln Black Glazed Rabbit Hair Tea Cup" with thick tires and heat preservation became the favorite of literati and literati at that time. Teaware mentioned.So far, Jianyao Rabbit Haozhan has become famous all over the world.

The rabbit in Chu Chen's hand is covered with black glaze on the inside and outside. The glaze on the outer wall is not as thick as the bottom. mark.

Even and dense tendons are arranged in the inner and outer black glaze layers, shaped like hare hairs, slender and crowded, and like thousands of small insects crawling downward in the black soil.

This spectacle is due to the fact that the iron content of the black glaze of the Jian kiln is as high as 9%. During high-temperature firing, the bubbles under the glaze bring the iron to the surface, and then flow into strips of needles, forming yellow, white, brown, Blue-based kiln discoloration.

Among them, yellow, white, and blue are the majority, and the folks are commonly known as "golden rabbit hair", "silver rabbit hair", "blue rabbit hair", and some call it "gold and silver rabbit hair".
