The years when I was reborn as a giant in the antique world

The bursts of cool air from his wrists kept Yunzhou from feeling hot in the summer, and he didn't even sweat a single drop on his forehead, which looked extraordinarily clean and refreshing, in stark contrast to the sweaty appearance of others.

The white fingertips are similar in color to the white body inside the porcelain tiles, and they are equally smooth and delicate, which can be called exquisite works of art.

Yun Zhou rummaged through the tiles carefully, picked out the tiles that met the requirements, and placed them on the right hand side.

When he picked out the fourth tile, he paused, and suddenly found that the tile in his hand was complementary to the edges of the three tiles he picked out before, and he might be able to put them together to achieve a perfect fit.

The young man held his breath for an instant, and glanced at the stall owner who was playing with his mobile phone without any trace. Seeing that the other party's eyes were not on him at all, he quickly put the four tiles together with his fingers.

really!

The broken part just made up half of the blue-and-white bowl, and the bottom was made of two pieces of broken porcelain spliced ​​together. When combined, it became the bottom line of the six-character two-line blue-and-white regular script of "Xuande Year System of the Ming Dynasty".

It is a blue and white lotus seed bowl from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty!

Depending on the size of the gap, there are still about 3-4 pieces of broken porcelain that can be pieced together to form a complete piece of porcelain.

Yun Zhou's spirit was shaken, and he quickly disrupted the four pieces of broken porcelain, and added two pieces of porcelain with similar textures to confuse the audience.

Next, he observed each of the remaining porcelain pieces extremely carefully, looking for the pieces of porcelain that coincided with the curvature of the remnants just put together, and finally let him find the remaining four pieces!

Yun Zhou restrained his inner excitement, and took a little comparison with the tiles. No matter the enamel, decoration or interface parts, they could be spliced ​​perfectly without any flaws.

There were people coming and going on the road. He didn't assemble all the broken porcelain pieces into a whole blue and white lotus seed bowl, but reconstructed it several times in his mind based on the memory just now. After confirming that it was correct, he messed up the order of the porcelain pieces. By the way, I took a few other blue and white porcelain pieces and put them inside.

At this time, more than half an hour had passed. The stall owner wiped the sweat from his neck, put down his phone and glanced at him, "Have you chosen yet?"

"Okay." Yun Zhou replied as calmly as possible, "A total of eighteen pieces."

Among them, eight pieces can form the whole porcelain, and the other ten pieces are used to make up the number.

"Okay. Let me see, is it this pile?" The middle-aged man came out from behind the booth fanning his fan, stood beside him and started counting.

Yun Zhou's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, lest the stall owner would notice it.

Especially when the other party put the two pieces together to show the base of the "Ming Dynasty Xuande Annual System", his heart was raised in his throat, and his face turned pale because of this.

Fortunately, the boy's complexion was extremely fair, even so it was not easy to see.

"I'm pretty good at choosing, they're all blue and white porcelain pieces." The middle-aged man casually glanced at the number and sat back, "Eighteen pieces of broken porcelain pieces are five hundred and four in total.

Do you want to look at something else?Here is a small red-glazed bowl from the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty. The glaze color is very positive, and you can get it for 8000 yuan. "

"No, it's getting late, I have to go back first."

Yun Zhou quickly took out his mobile phone and transferred 540 yuan to the stall owner. A little sweat oozed from his palm because of the excitement, and he wiped it on his pants.

"...Okay, then welcome to come again next time." The middle-aged man didn't want to talk too much, otherwise it would damage his honest and honest image.

He took out a cardboard box, laid a few sheets of plastic film on the bottom, threw the broken porcelain pieces in, and handed the box to him.

When he completely took the paper box into his hand, Yun Zhou finally heaved a sigh of relief, and a bright smile unconsciously appeared on his lips, which made the other party startled.

Hey, it's just a few broken porcelain pieces, so happy to use them?

The stall owner was still thinking, but the boy had disappeared.

**

Yun Zhou held the cardboard box and couldn't wait to go home, with smiles on his eyes and brows, his face was slightly red, and he wanted to run upstairs when he went upstairs.

Yu Xinlan gave him a strange look, she rarely saw her son so happy, what happened?

Yun Zhou returned to the room, spread a thick blanket on the table, and poured all the broken porcelain in the carton on it.

He picked out eight fragments of blue and white porcelain from the Xuande period. Each of these eight pieces of porcelain was well preserved. They should have been smashed and buried directly in the ground, and they were not dug out until recently.

No dirt other than a bit of dirt, almost no wear.

Yun Zhou cleaned them carefully with water, dried them with a flannel cloth, and began to piece them together. In less than 2 minutes, he assembled the complete 'Ming Xuande Blue and White Lotus Seed Bowl with Wrapping Branches and Flower Patterns'!

The young man held it gently with his hands and carefully observed the surroundings of the porcelain bowl. Except for the cracks, there were no gaps or bumps, and there was no need to repair the missing parts at all.

The little jade dragon immediately emerged from the wrist, flicked its tail, the two small dragon horns were sticking out, and the smooth scales brought a little coolness.

It has completely returned to normal, not as shy as it was yesterday. It opened its mouth wide and inhaled all the spiritual energy in the tiles. Two rows of dragon scales lit up, and more than 40 scales the size of rice grains turned into shiny ones. silver.

Then, in Yunzhou's expectation, it spit out several spirit energy as expected, and gathered them at the cracks for repair. Under the action of spirit energy, the cracks gradually became smaller until they disappeared, and finally became a complete piece of porcelain, completely Can't see any blemishes.

"You are really amazing."

Yun Zhou raised his wrist, touched its slender and lovely dragon body bit by bit with his fingertips, and praised it without hesitation.

Little Yulong raised his head proudly, strutted his body desperately to meet his line of sight, those obsidian eyes were full of longing and shyness, staring straight at the boy's pink lips, the tip of his tail was also Sweeping on the wrist, it seems to be urging something.

Yun Zhou suddenly understood what it meant, and smiled so much that his eyes curled up, it turned out he wanted to kiss.

The soft lips fell on the top of Xiao Yulong's head, and he was not surprised to find that the whole dragon turned red again, curled up shyly and disappeared from his wrist.

Well, still so shy.

You are so shy but still want to kiss, why are you so cute?

Yun Zhou's heart was almost melted by the cuteness of the little Yulong, and it took a long time to calm down and start to observe the restored 'Ming Xuande Blue and White Lotus Seed Bowl with Wrapping Branches and Flower Patterns'.

The Yongxuan period of the Ming Dynasty was a glorious period when China's porcelain industry was in its heyday, especially the high-quality cobalt material brought back by Zheng He's voyage - "Su Ma Li Qing" was directly used in the firing of blue and white porcelain, which improved the quality of blue and white porcelain and directly Promoted the development of the porcelain industry.

The blue and white porcelain fired by the imperial kiln during the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty is famous all over the world for its simple and elegant shape, crystal clear glaze color and colorful decoration.

Compared with the blue and white porcelain of other dynasties, the firing technology reached the highest peak during the Xuande period, and there is a saying in the ceramic circle that "blue and white porcelain is the first to promote Xuande".

There are also relevant records in ancient books praising the "absolute" blue and white of Xuande in Ming Dynasty.

Shen Defu of the Ming Dynasty once recorded in "The Yutan of My Broom Zhai": "The kiln wares of this dynasty are decorated with five colors of white ground blue and white, which is the crown of ancient and modern times. For example, Xuan kiln products are the most expensive."

And Zhang Dai's "Night Sailing Boat" "Baowan Department" also said: "Xuan kiln, made in the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty. The blue and white are pure white, and they are all tops."①

The words "the crown of ancient and modern times" and "all the top" are enough to show that Xuande blue and white flowers were highly respected in the Ming Dynasty and were praised by the world.

This blue and white lotus seed bowl with entangled branches and flower patterns is one of the most characteristic varieties of Yongxuan blue and white.

Yun Zhou took the whole bowl in his hand and watched it carefully, only to see that its rim was slightly open, the wall of the bowl was light and thin, the glaze was bright and moist, the lines of the decoration were smooth, and the inner and outer walls were decorated with blue and white flowers.

Several lotus petals are painted in blue and white on the outer wall, each of which spreads from the bottom of the bowl to the fretline near the mouth.

The inner wall is also painted with blue and white typical twining flowers. In the middle of the twining flowers, three chrysanthemums and three camellias bloom alternately. The six petals are scattered on the inner wall in parallel, forming a symmetrical effect.

The heart of the bowl is a loquat plant, which is finely drawn and is a typical Xuande style.

Because Emperor Xuande believed in Tibetan Buddhism, he built Buddhist temples all over the country, and had close contacts with Tibetan lamas, and often rewarded him with imperial kiln porcelain, so Buddhist elements such as lotus petals are often found in Xuande imperial kiln porcelain. ②

This blue and white lotus seed bowl with intertwining branches and flower patterns has a rich blue and white color on the outer wall, while the blue and white flowers on the inner wall are relatively light, rich and colorful, suitable for beauty.

There are iron black spots in the depth of the blue and white color, which is a typical blue and white porcelain fired with Sumaliqing as the cobalt material; there is a standard six-character blue and white regular script official style of "Daming Xuande Year System" in the ring foot of the bottom of the bowl. Fluent, regular script has the charm of Jin and Tang Xiaokai, which is obviously the work of official kilns.

Through the quality of the tire, the blue and white flowers, the decorations, the base style and the abundant aura contained in the porcelain, Yunzhou can almost confirm that this bowl is a genuine product fired by the official kiln in the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty!

He was even more convinced of this when he thought of the foreign accent of the stall owner, which was partial to Jiangxi Province.

It's really thanks to Xiao Yulong, otherwise he would have to find a master who specializes in restoring porcelain to restore it.

One is that such a highly respected master might not easily make a move, just like Mr. Du, he would ignore others asking him for an appraisal, even if it is useless to ask for a lot of money, he would only conduct appraisals for acquaintances;

The second is that even the best masters cannot restore porcelain without flaws.Even if it's not obvious from the outside, you can still tell the difference between restored and complete porcelain with strong lights or listening to the sound.

And the blue and white bowl in front of me has fine and light texture, suitable shades of blue and white, beautiful and fine decoration, and a flawless appearance. No trace of cracking can be detected with any tool. No matter how you look at it, it is a perfect piece of porcelain.

No one would believe that not so long ago it was scattered pieces of porcelain, it's incredible!

Yun Zhou carefully put the blue and white bowl in the box, and padded plastic foam around the bowl wall and inside the bowl to prevent wear and tear.

Then I cleaned the pieces of porcelain bought at other stalls one by one and put them on the blanket, trying to sort them.

Four of the eleven pieces of broken porcelain belonged to the same piece of porcelain in pairs, and the rest could not be pieced together.

But it doesn't matter, Yunzhou put the pieces of porcelain that belonged to the same piece of porcelain into two boxes respectively, and the others were classified according to the decoration and location: mouth edge, neck, abdomen, bottom foot and so on.

In the future, he will focus on collecting these broken pieces of porcelain, and try to piece them together while studying, maybe one day he will be able to piece together a fine piece of porcelain.

Thinking like this, the young man never imagined that in a few years, he would become the most famous porcelain collector and restorer in the entire Hua Kingdom, and he would increase the price of broken porcelain on the market by himself, some even as high as a thousand yuan s price.

Yun Zhou went downstairs with the box containing the porcelain bowl, greeted his mother happily when he met his mother, and then went straight to Zhenbao Pavilion.

As long as this blue and white bowl from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty is sold, the matter of the house should be settled, right?

The author has something to say:

Babies, guess how much the price of this bowl is?Don't check it online.
