Chapter 30

"Not only defective products, but also tile-made porcelain (burnt waste) can be found everywhere, and JDZ unearthed less? The management is not strict, the problem is that if you keep it, you can't sell it? So I went back: smashed all that can be smashed, and even if it is passed on, it is worthless..."

"Someone mentioned it before, saying that this pot is a bit like the late Ming Dynasty, but the style is wrong!"

"It's not just a problem with the style, but the painting method and pattern are wrong. Have any of you ever seen an object from the Ming Dynasty printed with the painting style and decorative pattern of the Tang Dynasty?"

"Don't say I've seen it, I've never heard of it. If it weren't for these two points, someone would have taken it from an ordinary folk kiln when it was Chongzhen even if it wasn't for these two points. Of course, it cost 1000 yuan..."

"It's true...experts look at things: no matter where they are, they can't see things as long as they don't look the same. Laymen look at things: they don't look like anything, as long as there is something close to it, it's true... Boss Li's style is a bit like the National Treasure Gang..."

"Haha, look how round he is..."

To these cynicisms, Li Ding'an just ignored them, and waited until the voice of discussion became quieter before continuing:

"Actually, everyone is right. This painting method is wrong, with obvious splashed ink and smudged style, and this pattern is also wrong, like a fan... And these kinds of characteristics have indeed not been seen in Ming Dynasty porcelain that has been unearthed or survived in China, but..."

He paused for a while, and said in an unhurried voice: "He didn't use these things for the people of the country. In short: this is the official custom-made porcelain by the RB merchants in the Apocalypse Period. It is an export thing, and it is rarely handed down in China...

That's why you guys think this painting style is strange, and this pattern is also strange, because this is RB style... No, this is the Tang Dynasty style, and RB people have been using it until now..."

"What, is this exported?"

"Why don't you have any impression?"

"The meaning is that it can be said, but this is too much, is it something exported?"

"Every time you have to divide it into periods and places. For example, in the 90s and [-]s and even the beginning of this century, we imported some things from foreign countries, not to mention, waste products and garbage are not uncommon..."

"That's what it means. Even though Apocalypse is at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it is still a kingdom of heaven in the eyes of neighboring countries. Even if it is a defective product, it is still a good thing in their eyes, and the price is still low.

However, it was chaotic at that time, and the production of official kilns basically stopped, and most foreign businessmen ordered directly from the private sector.So although things of this style are rare in China, there should be a lot of foreign countries, such as RB... In the final analysis, they are still worthless..."

The man looked at Li Ding'an with a smile: "Boss Li, could it be for this reason that you leaned so hard on the official kiln?"

"Who said I was hard-pressed?"

Li Ding'an smiled flawlessly, "You all should know painting, don't you think this painting looks familiar?"

"Of course it looks familiar. The landscapes smudged with splashed ink are in this style in Tang and Song Dynasties."

"It's not uncommon in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, but have you never seen it painted on porcelain?"

The boss who bought the calligraphy and painting laughed: "Boss Li means to let you infer the cause from the effect: since it is produced by the official kiln, at least this painting must be an official painting, so it will not be an unknown person, and it may even come from the hand of a famous artist...Huh?"

After talking for a while, his eyes "swish" round, and his head moved forward vigorously.

If Wu Weimin hadn't been grinding it with a piece of sandpaper, he would have put his eyes on the pot.

After staring at it for almost a minute, he straightened up, took out his mobile phone and took a photo of the pot.

Everyone didn't know why, but Li Ding'an could see it very clearly: he directly clicked on the search bar of the browser, copied the photo into it, searched a little, and there were numerous results below.

Without exception, they are all the same painting, but the mobile phone is ink landscape, while the pot is blue and white.

The boss stared blankly at Li Ding'an, and took a long time to let out a breath: "The painting of Yaofeng's splashing greenery, Dong Qichang's painting..."

"Damn... is it really from the official kiln?"

No matter whether you know porcelain or painting, anyone who has a little knowledge of antiques will know Dong Qichang: an official in the late Ming Dynasty, a famous calligrapher, a painter...

"Don't just rely on it, but tell me: Is the painting on the bottle painted by Dong Qichang?"

……

"It's not the painting on the bottle, but the base map was drawn by Dong Qichang: the official asked him to paint, and then the artist of the Yuqi Factory took his picture and painted it on the embryo!"

"Why can't it be imitated by folk kilns?"

"Dong Qichang's works were created for him by Kangxi and Qianlong, and he was not famous at all in the late Ming Dynasty. On the contrary, he was a well-known treacherous official, and he was inseparable from Wei Zhongxian. Both the court and the people were extremely contemptuous of him, and he was called a 'Qiaohuan'.

So even if the folk kiln is an imitation, it is also an imitation of the earlier and more famous Xu Wei and the like... So this is undoubtedly a product of the official kiln, but..."

The boss looked at Li Ding'an suspiciously: "Even if it is an artifact exported in the late Ming Dynasty, even if it is produced by an official kiln, it is worth at most one hundred and eighty thousand, so it is not a leak?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Wu will be well soon, everyone will know when the time comes!"

At this time, Wu Weimin had already used sandpaper and a file to thin the bottom of the bottle a lot, about one or two millimeters.Tianshun's style was worn out early, and a circle of thin cracks appeared on the inside of the foot.

"Hiss..." Someone suddenly took a breath...

"What happened, why did it break?"

"Crack a fart, it's because the bottoming method is too dry, it's not glued tightly, the glaze is gone, can't you see the seam?"

"What do you mean, added after this?"

"I'll go, no wonder the bottom is so thick, and this pot is so heavy?"

"Open your eyes..."

"By the way, is there still money in it?"

"It's probably true. Didn't you listen? Before, Teacher Wu asked Boss Li: Is it from Tianshun..."

"Tianshun...didn't know where Dong Qichang was at that time?"

"Don't be ridiculous if you don't understand. The painting of Yaofeng Pocui is a miniature copy of Song and Yuan people imitated by Dong Qichang. Xu Wei, Wen Zhengming, and Tang Yin have all imitated it before. Mr. Wu specializes in ceramics. Is it strange that you can't recognize this painting as Dong Qichang's work? If you don't look at it, even Manager Guan didn't recognize it..."

Guan Chengming's face turned red...

A group of people muttered, and Wu Youwei also came to the end: He put down the sandpaper and file, picked up a small chisel, and chiseled lightly along the crack.

Then he held the pot and tapped it lightly on the coffee table, and with a "clang", a piece of porcelain the size of a palm fell off.Wu Youwei wiped it again with his hand, revealing a blue and white seal at the bottom of the pot.

"What is this, monogram?"

"It's a bit like seal script...after the fire...after the fire?"

"Never heard of it?"

"I haven't heard of it either..."
