Golden Fishing Village

The two little monkeys were not very small, and they expanded the cave volume after digging into the watermelon. They had thrown out a lot of melon pulp. Ao Muyang guessed that they had dug into the middle of the watermelon based on the number of melon pulp.

This knife goes down...

The watermelon was split into two pieces, and there was a fist-sized hole on the exposed cross-section. A marmoset looked at the gleaming watermelon knife in horror - I just dug a hole, are you going to chop me?

Cheng Deming was confused: "Here, what is this? I have seen worms growing in watermelons, but this one has monkeys? Is this a monkey?"

Ao Muyang smiled bitterly and explained: "I blame me for not making it clear, Brother Cheng, these two monkeys are my pets."

He waved, and quickly crawled out of the watermelon hole and got into his pockets, regardless of the hot weather.

"This watermelon has indeed been chilled, but it is not prepared for you, brother. The one prepared for you is still in the refrigerator. This watermelon is the nest of the two marmosets I raised."

After hearing what he said, Cheng Deming didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Ah, brother Ao, you really don't raise anything. Where did these little monkeys come from? It's so dangerous, I almost chopped them up with a knife."

Ao Muyang went to the freezer and took out a new watermelon. At the same time, he briefly talked about the ins and outs of the two little monkeys. Finally, he asked: "Brother Cheng, are you sure about the identity of this jar?"

Cheng Deming perked up and said: "I'm sure, this is a Longquan kiln plum green large mouth and short neck sky-shaped jar. It is probably the Longquan kiln plum green large mouth and short neck sky-shaped jar from the Southern Song Dynasty!"

Ao Muyang was shocked: "Southern Song Dynasty? Is this an antique from the Song Dynasty?"

Cheng Deming nodded heavily: "That's right."

Ao Muyang gasped and said, "I'm not questioning you, brother Cheng, and I'm not doubting your ability, but is this jar from the Southern Song Dynasty?"

Cheng Deming didn't mind his doubts, but was very satisfied with his attitude. He laughed and said: "Are you shocked? I had this guess as soon as I saw this jar, and I was shocked at the time, so I rushed from Qinghai to Tibet in a hurry. The area flew back.”

After that, he further explained: "I was not in LS when I received your message, but in a small mountain town, which is still two days' drive from the airport."

Ao Muyang didn't care about this. What he cared about was: "Brother Cheng, is this jar indeed an old item from the Song Dynasty?"

Cheng Deming smiled confidently, then picked up the jar and showed it to him: "Today, I will teach you a lesson. Come on, look at the color. Look at the color of this jar. What color is it?"

"Green, turquoise."

"It's actually cyan, not turquoise. It was soaked in the sea for too long and soaked by sea salt, so it shows some light green." Cheng Deming explained.

"Cyan is the most representative glaze color of Song porcelain. Porcelain of every era in history has its own characteristics. The Qing Dynasty was gorgeous, the Ming Dynasty was majestic, and the Song porcelain was plain."

"What is it used to express? It is expressed in blue, because in the three schools of thought of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, green means simplicity, it is the color of nature. In addition, in the Song Dynasty, the color cyan also had other meanings. It was also an expression of freedom. Symbolizing spiritual return.”

Cheng Deming got excited when he said it, and he started talking like a teacher giving a lecture: "The celadon created by the Song Dynasty people has a kind of sentiment, and life is free and easy between the world and the world. This sentiment is placed on the porcelain, and also Just like being free and easy trapped by porcelain, celadon itself represents a contradiction, the contradiction of being free in the sky but still having its feet on the earth.”

"I want to ride the wind back home, but I'm afraid that the beautiful buildings and jade buildings will be too cold at high places." Lu Zhizi, who was reading, tilted his head and read a famous poem by Su Dongpo.

Cheng Deming slapped his thigh and made a 'pop' sound, and shouted: "Yes, this is it. While he wants to escape from the world and fly to the sky on the wind, he constantly reminds and restrains himself to make himself rational..."

Ao Muyang was confused when he heard this. What was he talking about? What does this have to do with this jar? Is it because my understanding is too poor? Why does he feel that the old man is crooked?

I don't know if it was influenced by Lu Zhizi's poem, but the old man became very elegant. Later he also talked about poems, such as "clear as the autumn sky, quiet as the deep sea", and "celadon snowflakes drifting with fragrance, how are they like the fairies" "When the clouds are clear after the rain, the plums turn sour and green".

Ao Muyang listened groggyly, but he roughly understood that the last line of the poem read by the old man was the key point. The words "the sky is blue after the rain" and "the plums are first green" in this poem are typical Song Dynasty celadon glaze colors, which respectively represent official officials. There are two major systems of aesthetic standards: kilns and folk kilns.

Among them, "the plum blossoms are young" refers to Longquan kiln.

The old man continued to popularize it, and during this period he once again added various poems, which was quite like the old man talking about being a teenager.

Obviously, this Southern Song Dynasty porcelain jar stimulated him, causing him to secrete adrenaline crazily for a moment, and he was energetic and enthusiastic. It was commonly known as crazy.

The old man Dududu talked about a lot of professional terms for identifying porcelain, explaining the glaze color, base, carcass, decoration and even the method of decoration and firing. He explained it in detail, but Ao Muyang couldn't understand it.

Cheng Deming didn't care whether he could understand or not. After a eloquent talk, he pinched his waist with his left hand and shook his right arm. He raised his head and chanted: "Green plums make wine in May, and gardenia flowers bloom in June. There are endless tears on the corridor over the years, and the fragrance under the eaves is unbearable." Keep it. When the awns are in season, listen to the rain and stare at the green window. I don’t want the green willows to turn into red pomegranates, and I smell the wine lightly. "

Ao Muyang stared at him in a daze, and finally didn't know what to say to cooperate, so he had to sing a line: "The sky is blue and waiting for the rain, and I am waiting for you..."

As a result, the old man was a shrewd man. When he heard him singing in an inappropriate way, he rolled his eyes and said, "I just said so much, didn't you understand?"

Ao Muyang smiled bitterly and said, "Old man, I have a high school education. After graduation, I became a chef, and later returned to the village to catch fish. You said these are a bit highbrow, otherwise we can do something low-brow. Just tell me if this jar is valuable?"

"Valuable?" The old man asked loudly with his eyes wide open, like thunder from the ground, like Pavarotti singing "The East is Red".

He said, "Do you know the Longquan Kiln Plum Green Tea Ou Leech Trip in the Fuso National Museum?"

Ao Muyang shook his head in inferiority. Today he was sure that he was illiterate. He thought that he would have the opportunity to go to adult college, TV university or night school in the future.

Cheng Deming said: "This porcelain is a Longquan celadon teacup. You must know about teacups, right?"

"I know this." Ao Muyang nodded. If he didn't know this, he would be either illiterate or stupid.

Cheng Deming told him: "Longquan Kiln Plum Green Tea Cup with Leech Triangle is a celadon tea cup produced by Longquan Kiln in the Southern Song Dynasty. After it was passed to Japan, it was collected as a national treasure by the family of Taira Shigemori, a military commander in the late Heian period. In the Muromachi period, it was obtained by the powerful shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa and has been regarded as a national treasure until today. Do you know what this Longquan Kiln Plum Green Tea Cup with Leech Triangle is?"

Ao Muyang said weakly: "It's a tea cup."

"It's not an ordinary tea cup, it's a cracked tea cup. This bowl had cracks hundreds of years ago, and then they asked a brazing craftsman to make a few brazes. Even such a thing is regarded as a national treasure. What is this large jar of yours, which is still a complete jar?"

Facing the old man's burning eyes, Ao Muyang wanted to cry: "Earth treasure?"
