Han Kongque nodded and didn't say anything else. He really needed their help. After all, each of their families was prosperous. If they had no connections in this society, they wouldn't be able to enjoy anything.
Just like his information company, no one has asked for trouble so far. Han Kongque definitely believes that it was Jiang Lin and the others who said hello, otherwise it would be very troublesome just for a tax payment.
After all, there was a lot of money in Han Kongque's company. As long as there were financial transactions, taxes had to be paid. If no one said hello, someone would have come to check the taxes.
"After we have eaten, we will go back to rest. No one is allowed to go out and fool around. After recuperating, we will go over there and let Xiao Han lead us to make a fortune again. I have heard that Xiao Han is also a master in the stone gambling industry.
"Chen Jiayi finally warned everyone.
"Let's go and watch a movie in the room." Zhu Feiyu said cheerfully.
"You're not afraid of being burned by lust," He Chengqian said.
Zhu Feiyu raised his eyebrows and said, "That's why you need to vent! You understand."
When he returned to the room, he saw Han Xing and Zhang Xiangyue following him. Han Peacock said: "You guys go back to sleep!"
Han Xing said: "We also sleep in this room."
"Huh?" Han Peacock's forehead was covered with black lines.
Zhang Xiangyue pointed to the side, and Han Kongque saw there were two doors there, which should be suites.
"The suite costs 1,800 yuan a day. It has a maid's room and a bodyguard room. It's pretty good. The average price per person is only 600 yuan." Han Xing said.
Han Peacock didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He didn't expect that he would one day enjoy such treatment.
It turned out that he followed the masters from the Phoenix Jewelry Company to gamble on stones and stayed in a high-end hotel. He also had such a small room, and he lived in the servants' room at that time.
"Xiang Yue, can you take out the notebook in the car? I just woke up and I don't feel sleepy at all. I want to surf the Internet." Han Kongque said.
"Okay, I'll take it out and put it in my room." Zhang Xiangyue said.
Han Kongque said: "If you want to surf the Internet, there should be a computer in the room. I want to use that computer to play games. There are some collections on it." Han Kongque said.
In the past few days since he was out, Han Peacock called Han Rongrong, but he couldn't get through. This made Han Peacock a little worried. I'm fine today. Let's go to the game and see. Maybe Han Rongrong went crazy playing games and even turned off his phone.
Do not know at all.
Han Kongque didn't know that Han Guangrong was in pain and happiness at the same time.
Han Guangrong is a lazy boy who likes to eat and work. He also has high ambitions but low power. He is not down-to-earth when doing things and always wants to reach the sky in one step. So after Han Peacock handed him a broken small bowl, he started working on it.
Sweet dream, dreaming of selling this small bowl for a sky-high price.
In addition to this, he also had other thoughts about the plates and bowls in Han Peacock's warehouse.
As for those in the cupboard, he had given up. After Han Kongque left, he immediately moved them all out, but did not find anything with words on them. Although he did not have much identification knowledge, he also knew that those should not be there.
valuable.
That morning, as soon as Han Kongque went out, Han Guangrong immediately got up from the bed. When he was sure that Han Kongque was gone, he immediately brought some torn newspapers that he had prepared long ago, wrapped them in the broken bowl, and a few ordinary
The blue and white plate went out the door.
The recent expenses have been relatively large, and he has spent all the savings he had long ago, so he was so honest during the period when Han Peacock was at home.
Except for going out to meet his girlfriend secretly, no one else dared to meet him. He really had no money. If he hadn't been eating with his elder brother these days, Han Rongrong wouldn't even have money to eat.
Originally, Han Rongrong thought that he could get some money from the house decoration project, but he didn't expect that his elder brother was more cunning and actually sent a financial supervisor. All matters involving money must go to that financial officer. This turned Han Rongrong into a
A handyman, not a supervisor.
Taking the broken small bowl, Han Guangrong regretted it extremely. If he had known that he would have carefully collected these treasures, now it was broken. If he wanted to sell it at a good price, he had to repair it.
Han Guangrong was walking on the antique street. The ghost market had just closed at this time and there were not many stalls. He went to Chen Qing's bun shop and bought two buns and a cup of soy milk, eating them while walking.
If it weren't for the big harvest he might get today, Han Guangrong would never be willing to spend such luxury. Two buns and a cup of soy milk cost seven yuan. The buns are still so small. If he wanted to be full, he would have to spend seventy yuan, right?
Looking at the bun that was more than half the size in his hand, Han Guangrong scolded the profiteer harshly.
Honglou Restaurant No. 1, this is the name of this steamed stuffed bun shop in Antique Street. In order to match its signature, the steamed stuffed buns in the store have been greatly adjusted, from the original size of a fist to the current size of an egg.
The original thick skin and large fillings have changed to the current thin skin and large fillings. Although the reputation is still good, the buns are smaller! No matter how big the fillings are, they are not as big as the original ones. Nowadays, Korean buns are
You can fit two pieces of Glory into your mouth in one bite.
After swallowing this small bun worth three yuan in one bite, Han Guangrong couldn't bear to eat the remaining one. He began to chew slowly and taste the deliciousness of the bun carefully.
The steamed stuffed buns stuffed with chives and meat, the rich flavor of chives is tempered by the same rich aroma of meat. They are very strong and chewy in the mouth. The meat filling looks a bit dry, but when you bite it, you can easily bite out the gravy. This is
It makes people’s mouth full of fragrance.
Although the price has doubled in disguise, it is undeniable that Chen's steamed buns are more delicious and more famous. Otherwise, the business will not be better.
Han Guangrong was a little jealous, but he quickly calmed down. If he could make money by selling steamed buns, could he make money by making antiques?
Maybe by selling such a small bowl, he could earn the bun shop's profit for a year.
Taking another look at the long queue to buy steamed buns in front of the Red Mansion Restaurant, Han Guangrong left muttering: How come so many people buy such expensive steamed buns?
It's breakfast time now, so there aren't many people on the street, but there are some old stall owners who came early and have already set up their stalls.
Han Guangrong saw a lot of porcelain on a stall, and he walked over directly: "Boss, do you have any porcelain from the Republic of China period?"
The boss is a young man. He may not necessarily be older than Han Guangrong, but he is extremely calm: "Republic of China? What porcelain do you want from the Republic of China? Ordinary or high-quality? If it comes from famous Ming kilns, it will be expensive."
"I want the official kiln." Han Guangrong said.
"Guan kiln?" The young stall owner looked at Han Guangrong in surprise. Is this a mallet?
"No problem, what do you think of this? Official kilns of the Republic of China, authentic Hongxian porcelain." The stall owner reacted quickly and took out one of the blue and white porcelains from a pile and placed it next to Han Guangrong.
Han Guangrong carefully picked it up and took a look. The blue and white flowers were dim and incomparable to the blue and white ones at home. Although Han Guangrong couldn't say what was wrong, he could still tell that this small blue and white bowl was incomparable to any of the blue and white ones at home.
Compared to a small blue and white bowl.
"Is this Hongxian porcelain? Did Yuan Shikai have it fired?" Han Guangrong asked in surprise.
The stall owner suppressed his laughter and said: "Yes. This is Hongxian porcelain. It cannot be wrong to say that it is an official kiln. The only official kiln in the Republic of China was Hongxian porcelain."
"Who are you lying to? This one doesn't even have the same price? Could it be Hong Xian porcelain?" Han Guangrong looked at the ordinary small bowl. Such a small bowl is not as beautiful as the blue and white porcelain sold in the local product store. This thing is still official.
kiln?
"You don't understand this. Hongxian porcelain is said to be an official kiln without styles, so don't look at this small blue and white bowl without styles. This is authentic Hongxian porcelain." Knowing that Han Guangrong was following Bangchui, the stall owner started casually
of deception.
"How much does this small bowl cost?" Han Rongrong didn't want to buy it anyway. He just wanted to inquire about the price, so he didn't mind the stall owner cheating.
The stall owner was also very shrewd. Han Guangrong looked like he was here to buy things. He was carrying a backpack, so he was probably here to sell things. So the stall owner said: "I do business like a child.
Although this small bowl is made of Hongxian porcelain, it has no mark. The market price of this kind of porcelain is not high, so for only three thousand, you can take it away."
I originally wanted to say less, but the stall owner was afraid that Han Guangrong would really buy it, so he offered a fair price.
If you sell this small bowl at this price, you can make a hundred times the profit. If you inquire about the price, if you really receive Hongxian porcelain, the price of three thousand is not expensive.
"Three thousand? Three thousand for someone like you?" Han Guangrong turned around and left.
Seeing Han Guangrong walking away, the stall owner was dumbfounded. Han Guangrong snickered, trying to deceive himself, you are still a bit immature.
At this time, most of the antique shops on both sides of the street were closed, so Han Rongrong would wander around the street to learn about the price of Hongxian porcelain.
Although his small bowl was broken, it was not seriously broken. As long as it couldn't be repaired, the price would definitely be high.
After wandering around the antique street for more than an hour, Han Guangrong also inquired about it. The average price of high-quality products from the Republic of China is around 30,000 yuan. A small bowl like his is a high-quality product among high-quality products, and the price should be higher.
When it was past eight o'clock, Han Rongrong walked directly into Guci Zhai, which is the largest and oldest antique store on Antique Street. Gu Ci Zhai specializes in repairing porcelain.
When Han Guangrong walked into the ancient porcelain restaurant, the old shopkeeper of the ancient porcelain restaurant had been up for a long time. He was repairing some porcelain on the top floor of the ancient porcelain restaurant.
In fact, everyone at Gu Ci Zhai has been very busy recently, and most of the masters are leading their apprentices to repair a batch of porcelain.
Due to the large number of porcelain, they have only been able to put together two or three pieces of porcelain until now. This is because the porcelain is lightly damaged, and the pattern is special and there are no similar pieces, so they can piece it together easily.
Most of this batch of broken porcelain is dishes. When such porcelain is broken, the pieces are almost the same, so it is difficult to find a complete piece of porcelain.
Fortunately, this batch of porcelain includes only blue and white and pastel. The two categories are divided into two categories. Coupled with the different patterns, their workload is reduced a lot.
Now they are mainly excluding some worthless household porcelain, which has the most pieces, and the patterns mostly overlap with some fine porcelain, so it is more troublesome to select.
Li Chenghe looked at the negative of the porcelain plate in front of him. This was a batch of porcelain salvaged from the sea, and it was salvaged porcelain from the sea in advance.
After the relevant departments got clues, they found only some complete vessels of little value and these high-value broken pieces of porcelain in the sunken ship.
Some of these valuable porcelain fragments have been severely corroded by seawater, and many more are contaminated by silt and marine organisms, all of which need to be cleaned and maintained.
Fortunately, whether it is a bowl or a plate, the bottom is the thickest, so the bottom is not broken much, which allows a lot of inscriptions to be completely preserved.
Looking at the negatives sealed in the plastic bag, Li Chenghe felt a toothache and heartache. It would be a pity to destroy such a large number of fine porcelain.
And he hated those treasure thieves even more for actually looting all the remaining intact devices.
This is an excellent opportunity to study Yuan Shikai's official kilns. Yuan Shikai's porcelains were very controversial in modern times. If there were a large number of porcelains for people to study, the controversy would disappear.
Good is good. Although the current batch of broken porcelain is only a batch of broken porcelain, Li Chenghe can see from this batch of broken porcelain that the firing process at that time was no worse than the products of the imperial kilns of the Qing Dynasty.
This also made Li Chenghe very happy. Fortunately, he withstood the pressure and won this batch of porcelain.
Although the Magic City Museum of Porcelain also provided part of the cost for the restoration of the porcelain, that amount of money was only enough to cover the labor costs at most, and other expenses were in vain for their ancient porcelain studio.
Even so, many research institutes and individual institutions want to grab this batch of broken porcelain. They all want to use this batch of broken porcelain to improve their understanding of the porcelain of the Republic of China. If they can learn something, they can improve their own porcelain making techniques.
, that would be better.
Li Chenghe was able to grab a batch of broken porcelain. On the one hand, there were a lot of broken porcelain. On the other hand, because of his skills, being able to completely repair the porcelain was not something everyone could do.
At the very least, except for the Magic City Museum, which has this kind of technology, his ancient porcelain studio has the best craftsmanship in Magic City.
Each piece of this batch of porcelain has been registered, photographed and numbered to avoid loss. Although there are many restrictions, Li Chenghe really does not regret getting into this trouble. Through these days, many of his apprentices have learned a lot
thing.
Not to mention anything else, now that I have met Republic of China porcelain, everyone in his store can completely independently authenticate it. After seeing so many genuine products, if you can't independently complete the appraisal, it would be a waste.
The variety of this batch of porcelain is richer than what Li Chenghe could have imagined. Just the deposits he has found now are enough to make him forget all the price he paid for this batch of broken porcelain.
There are "Jurentang", "Jurentang", "Jingyuantang", "Yanqinglou", and even some "Zhizhai", "Zhizhai master", "Guo Shiwu", "
Porcelain fragments of "Guo Baochang, the pottery supervisor" and other base models.
Needless to say, the two bases "Jurentang" and "Jurentang" were definitely fired for Yuan Shikai, while the other "Jingyuantang" and "Yanqinglou" were fired for Xu Shichang and Cao Kun
Made.
And "Zhi Zhai", "Zhi Zhai Master", "Guo Shiwu", and "Porcelain Supervisor Guo Baochang Jinmade" are the private porcelain fired by Guo Baochang himself.
It can be said that this batch of porcelain completely covers all types of porcelain produced by Guo Baochang. This is rare.
But this discovery made people even more heartbroken and angry. They found so many fine products, but they were all broken porcelain.
Such a batch of imperial kilns without year marks were actually so badly broken. Although it was only a rough estimate, this batch of fine porcelain must be at least in the thousands.
Some people say that Guo Baochang only fired less than 6,000 pieces of porcelain for Yuan Shikai. If a thousand pieces were destroyed here, one sixth would be gone. How could this not make Li Chenghe heartbroken?
Although many people now do not approve of Yuan Shikai's pseudo-official kilns, the firing technology of this batch of porcelain is definitely more exquisite than the imperial kilns of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties.
Although Yuan Shikai was a short-lived emperor for only eighty-three days, he left behind a batch of antique porcelain with the highest quality in the history of porcelain in the Republic of China.
In early 1916, Yuan Shikai appointed Guo Baochang (also known as Shi Wu), the director of the General Affairs Department, to go to Jiangxi to supervise the burning of Hongxian imperial porcelain.
For this batch of porcelain, he spent 1.4 million oceans, which is equivalent to about one million taels of silver.
Some people say that there are about 40,000 pieces of porcelain in this batch, and some records say that there are only 6,000 pieces. Regardless of 40,000 pieces or 6,000 pieces, the cost allocated to each piece of porcelain is very high.
According to Qing history archives, during the Qianlong period, the Jingdezhen imperial kiln had to hand over 40,000 to 50,000 pieces of porcelain every year, but the imperial court only allocated 30,000 taels of silver per year.
Hongxian porcelain was so careless about workmanship that it was of course extremely exquisite. In this sense, it can also be regarded as the official kiln porcelain of the Republic of China. Many people even think that its craftsmanship is more exquisite than that of the prosperous period of Qiankang and Kangxi, not to mention the later decline of national power.
It is the late Qing Dynasty. It can be said that this batch of porcelain should be the masterpiece of the pinnacle craftsmanship of porcelain throughout the ages.
After Guo Baochang went to Jiangxi, he was the first to supervise the burning of "Jurentang" style porcelain for Yuan Shikai. At the same time, he also served the Beiyang warlords Xu Shichang (signed as "Jingyuan Hall" style) and Cao Kun (signed as "Yanqinglou style").
Each fired a batch of porcelain.
They mainly include display bottles, cups, plates, bowls and other daily-use porcelain as well as complete sets of tableware. This batch of porcelain has a fine white and light body, a white and moist glaze, and exquisite and exquisite shapes, with few large pieces.
These batches of porcelain were fired at the same time, but due to different uses, although the styles are similar, they are not exactly the same.
"Jurentang" porcelain was used as a gift to guests at the founding ceremony and for Yuan Shikai's own use. They are all imitation enamel and pastel utensils.
Although there is no enamel in this batch of fragments, the pastel craftsmanship is extremely impressive.
When the porcelain is broken, you can better see the skill of the porcelain master. Whether it is the porcelain body or the porcelain painting, the craftsmanship is very exquisite. Especially the porcelain painting, the depiction is exquisite and subtle. It can be easily seen that this is not what ordinary folk kilns can do.
achieved.
"Grandpa, go down and take a look. A young man came down below to repair a piece of porcelain. If I'm not mistaken, it's a small pastel bowl of the Jurentang model." Li Wei quickly ran up from below.
Yes, she shouted to her grandfather.
She knew that her grandfather had recently been busy with a batch of Republic of China porcelain, and he would definitely be interested in what she had to say.
"It's up to you! After seeing so many high-quality porcelain pieces from the Republic of China, it should be easy to tell the authenticity." Li Chenghe was not as happy as his granddaughter imagined. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better and updated novels.
