Chapter 574 Good things
"Not really, but the orchid fragrance of Tieguanyin is still easy to identify."
"I just saw you wandering around, did you find anything good?" Lao Chai asked carelessly, then picked up the cup and smelled it: "I just said that the smell is familiar, not to mention that it really smells like orchids."
"It's alright for you to be a hindsight." Zhang Cheng smiled and poured a second cup for several people: "Don't mention it, I'm unlucky today. I originally saw a few pieces of blue and white, but I didn't think I had the money.
No one seemed to know the goods, so I was going to show them to the seller, but when I turned around and came back, hey, they were all bought!"
"And that man has a vicious eye. He picked out all the eight good things in one stall! Oh no, there were three bird food jars on that stall, from Qianlong! Even the bird food jars were not given to him.
I'll stay..."
Lao Chai and Lao Wang and Lao Li were both dumbfounded and couldn't help but look at each other: "Wait a moment... then it seems... the person you are talking about seems to be us?"
"You?!" This time it was Zhang Cheng's turn to be dumbfounded: "No way, let's talk about the bird food cans. How dare you take action on those blue and white pieces?"
"Let me ask you, are those blue and white pieces two large bottles, two small bottles, and four large bowls from the Three Kingdoms drama?" Lao Chai asked.
Zhang Cheng jumped up in shock: "It's really you?! Lao Chai, your eyesight has improved!"
"How many of them are they really?" Lao Chai was also a little surprised, and then he was a little annoyed: "Why are they rising? I haven't understood those objects until now, but... they were all taken down by my elbow, and he said
I saw someone who went up to the mountain to hunt birds, so the three of us were given a bird food can each."
Zhang Cheng sat back and said, "You...you...can you see your elbow?"
"Guess," Zhou Zhi held the cup and tasted the orchid fragrance of Tieguanyin: "Chongzhen blue and white, the cylinder bottle is custom-made by the Prince of Shu. I don't know if I am right?"
"Mingqinghua?!" Lao Chai and Lao Wang and Lao Li were both shocked. Lao Chai angrily yelled at Lao Wang: "How can you think of Mingqinghua as a folk kiln of the Republic of China!"
"Am I talking about the Republic of China? What Lao Li said about the Republic of China, I am talking about the late Qing Dynasty!" Lao Wang expressed his dissatisfaction, as if he had the ability to make the date closer to the accurate date.
"It's not just fifty steps but a hundred steps..."
"Wait a minute!" Zhang Cheng raised his hand to interrupt the dispute between several old people: "Elbows, right? How can you determine that the pair of tube bottles are custom-made by the Prince of Shu's Palace? The name of Shaoguitang is the name of Chongzhen in the past.
It didn’t appear on the blue and white, did it?”
"So I said it was just a guess. According to the seller, the pair of blue and white cylinder vases were obtained from Taozhaizi. Judging from the shape, glaze application and painting skills, they are top-notch craftsmanship in the Chongzhen period. Therefore, Shaoguitang, who customized the pair of cylinder vases,
It’s definitely not the title of an ordinary person.”
"The Chongzhen blue and white background with ink characters similar to the inscription has appeared in previous overseas auctions. The base is 'Made by the Prince Zhao's Palace in the Spring and Meng Dynasty'. It was a porcelain made by the palace at that time like Jingde and was restricted to the people."
, it’s actually an official kiln.”
"Since it is at the level of the royal palace, the word "young turtle" is easy to understand." Zhou Zhi took a sip of tea and said: "The word "turtle" was not considered an elegant character after the Tang and Song Dynasties. It was rarely used in ordinary hall study halls, so it is placed here.
, it can only mean one thing, Shao refers to Shaocheng, and Gui refers to Turtle City."
"The capital of Shu was composed of three parts in the Ming Dynasty. The core area of the part first built by Zhang Yi was called 'Shaocheng'; the land surrounded by the second ring of city walls that was later expanded was shaped like a big turtle, plus Zhang Yi's
According to the legend of "Chengdu" in three years, it was called Turtle City."
"And in the south of Turtle City, adjacent to Shaocheng, are the Maha Pond and Crystal Palace built by the earliest former Shu emperor Meng Chang. In the Ming Dynasty, the Shu Prince's Palace was built there, also known as the 'Imperial City'."
"The north and south borders of the royal city include Shaocheng and Turtle City, occupying the most important hub of the Shu capital. Therefore, I guess that the 'Shaogui Hall' is the name used by the Prince of Shu in the Ming Dynasty."
"I see, this inference is indeed reasonable." Zhang Cheng couldn't help but shook his head: "With this little accumulation, I lost my hand. This little brother is really awesome, I admire you."
"No, no." Zhou Zhi waved his hands repeatedly: "I was just guessing."
"Hey! You can't tell it at ordinary times, but you can think of it at critical moments. This is proof!" Zhang Cheng looked at Lao Chai: "This little brother is definitely not simple! Isn't he?"
"Jian Bujian doesn't know. Anyway, the first time I met him was at Gongmei, where I sat and talked with Mr. Zhang." Lao Chai said with a smile.
"Then don't hide it, take it out and let me take a look at it!" Zhang Cheng laughed and scolded: "Qianlong gold-painted bird food jar, you will make a lot of money!"
"By the way, do you know that those three jars are actually very particular?"
"What's the point?" Lao Chai looked confused.
"You tell me, elbow." Zhang Cheng couldn't help but feel a little annoyed: "I don't know anything, how come this good thing fell into the hands of the three of you!"
"Actually, it's a traditional theme of broken branches and flowers." Zhou Zhi smiled and said that he had given the things away by himself. He was afraid that his promise would leave the three of them with the suspicion of boasting, so now he had the opportunity to explain: "Magnolia, peach blossoms and tulips,
They are all spring flowers, so together they are called 'Yitangchun', and because they are gold, jade and pink respectively, they are also called 'Jinyujiao'."
"Look!" Zhang Cheng smiled and pointed at Lao Chai and the other three who looked suddenly enlightened, and said to Zhou Zhi: "Should the pretty eyes be for the blind?"
Seeing some tools placed in a corner of Zhang Cheng's display window, Zhou Zhi's heart moved: "The light in this store is good, and I just received a Beauty Drunken Pomegranate Zun. It's very dirty and needs to be taken care of. I'll take it over too.
.”
"Then Lao Chai is here to look after it for me, and my little brother and I will go get it." Zhang Cheng said.
"Let's go too." Lao Wang and Lao Li also said, "There are a lot of things. By the way, we can also take a look at ours."
After bringing the things back, Zhang Cheng couldn't wait to open the two largest boxes and took out the pile of bottles.
"It's beautiful..." As the saying goes, "You can't see jade under the lamp." Only under abundant natural light can blue and white porcelain show its most charming beauty.
"Actually, it's still a tight skin with thick glaze, not as good as Yongxuan at the top, and not as good as Sandai at the bottom." Zhou Zhi said with a smile: "It's just that in terms of painting skills and subject matter, it is the most lively and comfortable, and it has its own characteristics."
"Classes have started!" Lao Chai and others surrounded the counter.
"Let's take a look at this first." Zhang Cheng threw the key to Zhou Zhi and asked him to open the counter and take out the reagent: "Is this also what I bought in the market today? Why didn't I see it?"
"There are too many single-color kiln-varnished glaze stalls, and the good and the bad vary. Eighty or ninety percent of them are imitations. It's normal to miss out." Zhou Zhi explained.
