Chapter 163 Underglaze Red Jade Pot and Spring Vase

The porcelain in hand is called a jade pot spring vase in terms of shape, with a diameter of about 9 cm, a bottom diameter of about 12 cm, a belly diameter of about 20 cm, and a height of about 32 cm.Skimming mouth, thin neck, round belly, ring feet, the whole vessel is glazed with red patterns, the color is bright and black.

The inside of the mouth is decorated with curly grass patterns, the neck is decorated with banana leaf patterns, and the belly is covered with twigs and peony patterns.

The bottom of the ring is sandy, with obvious flint red spots, and there is no standard base on the bottom of the bottle.

Under the perspective of Li Moyitong's eyes, the entire body of the bottle emits a dark blue halo, and the apertures are superimposed layer upon layer like ocean waves.

This is definitely a genuine Ming Hongwu underglaze red jade pot and spring vase.

The underglaze red porcelain fired during the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty was not yet skilled in craftsmanship, so the color of the fired underglaze red was not uniform enough, and the color was dark. At first glance, it looked like black spots in the red.

However, such authentic underglaze red porcelains are extremely rare because they are rare in the world. In the Jinling Museum, there is an authentic underglaze red porcelain from the Hongwu period of the Ming Dynasty, and there are also some fragments of underglaze red porcelain.

Li Mo really opened his eyes, unexpectedly met a Ming Hongwu underglaze red in the class of Beijing University.

He took a deep breath, calmed down and asked, "Teacher, where did you get this porcelain from?"

The teacher saw that his expression was different, so he couldn't help but smiled and said: "The first two are all right, but do you have any opinions on the third one?"

Li Mo's eyes were calm, he held the jade pot and spring bottle with both hands very carefully and gently put it on the long table, then took two steps back and looked at the teacher and said: "As expected of a century-old prestigious school with the first class, the last elective class of appreciation actually got a I bought a genuine Ming Hongwu underglaze red jade pot and spring vase, which is worth at least 1.5 million yuan, teacher, you must be careful when showing it to your classmates in class, and don't bump into it."

After a short period of silence in the lecture hall, louder laughter broke out. This student is too nonsense. Will the authentic Ming Dynasty porcelain worth 1.5 million be used as teaching materials in the classroom?If it is true, it is probably the most expensive item in the world.

But the teacher did not laugh, but looked at Li Mo very seriously, and observed the red jade pot and spring bottle under the glaze at a close distance. He frowned and said, "Student, don't talk nonsense in class. These porcelain props It was purchased uniformly by the school, and I have been using it for several years.”

"Teacher, don't you know this is the real thing?"

Li Mo was shocked, my good fellow, such an expensive genuine product has been used as a prop for several years.If those experts knew about it, his saliva would drown him.

"Teacher, don't move, I'll make a call first."

This is not a trivial matter. The Jinling Museum even collects the underglaze red porcelain fragments as treasures, which shows how precious the Ming Hongwu underglaze red porcelain is.

The only person he can contact is Professor Zhu Changping, who will contact the school leaders to arrange protection matters.

It's a pity that the teacher's phone can't be reached, and the mobile phone signal should not be received in the mountain belly.Li Mo called Professor Wu again, but no one answered the phone call, and he didn't know if he was at Beijing University.

I had no choice but to make the last call again. It was Professor Zhang from the Department of History who mainly studied ancient characters, and he was a relatively familiar person.This time it was connected quickly, and Professor Zhang's laughter came out.

"Li Mo, it's really a good job. It's a face to Beijing University. If you need any help at this time, just tell me. I've been very free recently."

"Professor Zhang, please listen to me first. I am now in a lecture theater in Building 3 of Peking University. In class, I discovered that one of the porcelains used as teaching props is a genuine Hongwu underglaze red jade pot and spring vase in the Ming Dynasty. , very rare."

"Because I couldn't get in touch with the teacher, I tried to call you, and asked Professor Zhang to contact the leader immediately to arrange protection matters, and at the same time notify relevant experts for further identification."

Hearing the sound of a chair hitting the table on the other end of the phone, Professor Zhang raised his voice a little: "Li Mo, you read that right? Oh, you must be right, give the phone to the teacher in class, and I'll talk to him. "

Li Mo handed the phone to the disbelieving teacher, "Professor Zhang from the History Department wants to talk to you."

"what."

"it is good."

"clear."

Professor Zhang didn't know what he said to him. After hanging up the phone, he showed a skeptical look, and looked at Li Mo with curiosity.

The students in the lecture hall began to whisper to each other. It seems that the classmate was not talking nonsense just now, just look at the teacher's expression.Unexpectedly, a teaching prop that has been used for several years is actually a real antique, worth more than 1.5 million.

For these students themselves, 1.5 million is an unattainable height. Even if they start a business and do business smoothly in the future, it is unknown how many years it will take to accumulate such wealth.

They want to know even more who is this classmate?Why does he say what he says?
The atmosphere in the classroom was a little abnormal. Standing here, Li Mo was under a lot of pressure. He smiled at the teacher and said, "I'm sorry for interrupting your class. Actually, I'm a freshman this year. I'm not familiar with the environment. I wanted to find a buddy to ask the direction of the classroom, but the buddy was too enthusiastic and brought me in directly."

The teacher held back for a few seconds and said leisurely, "Are you really that golden-eyed Li Mo?"

"The teacher knows me?"

"I haven't seen it, but I can hear calluses." The teacher turned to look at the remaining three unidentified porcelain, "Are there any more?"

"No."

The teacher was silent for half a minute and said, "There are still many similar teaching props in the warehouse. Over the years, there are at least 300 of them. Why don't you go over and have a look, maybe you can find something good?"

"Ok."

In front of so many seniors and sisters, Li Mo had an awkward chat with the teacher.

After ten minutes passed, Professor Zhang led a group of people into the classroom, and the classroom full of discussions suddenly fell silent.

"Li Mo, this is Dean Gao, and this is Director You." Professor Zhang immediately introduced two school leaders to Li Mo.

Li Mo hurriedly saluted respectfully.

"Li Mo, what about the genuine Hongwu underglaze red jade pot and spring vase you mentioned?"

After Dean Gao asked, he glanced at the long table. The bright underglaze red color was too conspicuous. He, Director You, and Professor Zhang immediately surrounded it.

Dean Gao looked at it for a long time before sighing: "It's a blessing that this rare and exquisite product has not been damaged."

"Careless, we are all careless, who would have thought that hundreds of pieces of porcelain could have such a big leak." Director You said with a little fear, "Dean Gao, there are still a lot of porcelain props in the warehouse of Beijing University. Don't let Li Mo go and screen it now?"

"It's very necessary, let's go now." Dean Gao looked at Li Mo, with a smile on his face, "Li Mo, you are a master in this field, first pack this Ming Hongwu glazed red jade pot spring bottle Protect."

It was his duty to do this, and the security guard who came with him delivered a safe.

"Principal Gao, if the school wants to keep this genuine underglaze red product, then this safe must be re-customized to a suitable size. I will use foam as a protective measure first."

"If you make a request, I will immediately ask the people in the logistics department to make an urgent order. I will take you to the warehouse later to see if there are any authentic porcelains purchased over the years for teaching props."

Today’s incident is a great blessing. The Hongwu underglaze red jade pot and spring vase in the Ming Dynasty have not been damaged after being used as props for several years.At the same time, it is a frightening thing, and it will cause embarrassment if it is spread out.
