    Underglaze red was fired in the Yuan Dynasty. Due to its complex firing process and sophisticated materials, successfully fired works are very rare and very few have been handed down.  In addition, the firing time of this type of porcelain in the Yuan Dynasty was very short, which is also a reason why this type of porcelain is rare in the world.  Moreover, in the Yuan Dynasty, whether it was underglaze red porcelain or blue and white underglaze red porcelain, every successful work had extremely high aesthetic and artistic value, with beautiful colors that other porcelain products could not match. It is so rare and unique.  It is not difficult to imagine that the unique artistic value has become the object of pursuit by later generations of collectors.  These are the reasons why blue and white underglaze red porcelain is highly valued in the international auction market.  And Lao Hu actually said that this piece of porcelain was the very rare and valuable Yuan Dynasty underglaze red. How could this not surprise Chu Chen and Lao Yu?  Lao Yu asked with some disbelief: "Lao Hu, this is really the underglaze red from the Yuan Dynasty. Are you right?" "Nonsense, how could I be wrong about this? You can tell at the first glance if something is real or not.  Okay, look at this glazed red jar, does it look like the charm of the Yuan Dynasty?" At the end of the sentence, Lao Hu looked proud.  Not to mention, this jar with red dragon pattern in the glaze looks really interesting at first glance. This jar has a straight mouth, short neck, round shoulders, tight belly, and ringed feet.  The body of the jar is engraved with peony patterns, curly grass patterns and lotus petal patterns.  The abdomen is engraved with a pattern of clouds and dragons chasing pearls. At a glance, the lines are indeed smooth and the strokes are precise.  This jar uses the typical underglaze red and white technique, which is one of the underglaze decoration techniques of porcelain and is a type of underglaze red.  The method may be to leave the required pattern area on the white tire.  Or carve a pattern on this part, and then use copper red material to paint other empty areas.  Then a transparent glaze is applied and fired using the reduction method.  After firing, the pattern appears in the surrounding red color as the true color of the glaze.  And this method is also one of the techniques used in the firing process of underglaze red wares of the Yuan Dynasty.  At first glance, this vessel can be said to have uniform color and superb craftsmanship. Regardless of whether this jar is from the Yuan Dynasty, in terms of its craftsmanship, it is indeed a very good work. ?????????????????? Look left and right.  With his eyesight, he really couldn't tell that this thing was a fake. It must be known that there are only dozens of complete Yuan Dynasty underglaze red utensils discovered so far. The collection value and economic value are self-evident, which makes him wonder.  He was amazed.  ¡°But he also knew that his old friend¡¯s family background would make it impossible for him to spend a lot of money to buy such a thing. So how did he get this thing?  So I am always curious.  So he asked: "I'm talking about Lao Hu, how did you get this thing?" Lao Hu chuckled and said: "Actually, this matter is really weird when you talk about it." It turns out that Lao Hu's ancestral home is in Zhongzhou.  This week, an uncle from my hometown passed away.  So he rushed back.  After the funeral, the relatives over there persuaded Lao Hu to stay for a while. The relatives were very enthusiastic, and Lao Hu thought that he would finally return to his hometown, so he stayed here.  "Lao Hu is a restless person.  After living like this for three days, I got a little bored.  It just so happened that his hometown was also a famous historical and cultural city with a prosperous antique market, and he was a person who loved antiques. After finally returning to his hometown, it would be unreasonable not to go shopping.  It¡¯s not far from Lao Hu¡¯s hometown to the antique market, and it only takes twenty minutes to walk. It¡¯s leisure, and Lao Hu didn¡¯t take any transportation, so he walked to his destination.  The antique market is not big, but there are still quite a lot of things. Lao Hu spent the whole afternoon shopping and got a blue and white landscape dish from the Qing Dynasty.  With the harvest, Lao Hu happily walked back. After walking for about five or six minutes, he heard a "bang" sound. Following the sound, he saw that there happened to be a middle-aged man on the side of the road who was holding the bag.  He was working in the fields with a shovel. The sound just now was probably caused by the shovel hitting something.  "Hey, why is there a wooden box here!" Originally, there was nothing surprising about this kind of thing, but the middle-aged man's exclamation aroused Lao Hu's curiosity, and he stepped forward to take a look.  The middle-aged man smiled honestly at Old Hu, and then dug out a rectangular wooden box from the soil under Old Hu's gaze.  The box was very old. It looked like it had been buried for many years. I didn¡¯t know what was inside. Seeing this, the middle-aged man asked Old Hu hesitantly: "Brother, what do you think we should do with this thing?"  Hu was actually not stupid. From the very beginning, he felt that this was such a coincidence. The person in front of him was very much like a "landmine" planter. The best way to deal with this kind of thing was to walk away. However,  Lao Hu was really curious about the contents of the box, so he suggested to the middle-aged man to take the boxCome and take a look.  The box was opened. Although there were layers of protection inside, the contents were not beyond Lao Hu's expectation. It looked like a red-glazed jar. By now, he had basically determined that this was a middle-aged man.  It was a trap set for him, so he didn't even look at the jar carefully, and just planned to stay away from this place of right and wrong.  "Can you show me this jar?" But before Lao Hu took action, an old man came out from behind him, and before Lao Hu could react, he took it from the middle-aged man.  He passed the jar and looked at it.  The old man¡¯s movements were very skillful, and he finally took out a magnifying glass. Based on Lao Hu¡¯s knowledge, this man should be an expert.  The old man looked at it and let out a sound of admiration. Finally, after playing with it for a while, he naturally asked the middle-aged man if he had any intention of taking action. The old Hu on the side had already been forgotten in Java.  This situation immediately confused Lao Hu. Could it be that this was not a trap set for him?  This made him really want to see if this thing was right, but now that the jar was in the old man's hand, he could only stare. It was impossible to go up and snatch the jar from the old man's hand, right?  Fortunately, although Lao Hu couldn't use his hands to observe, the thing was right in front of him, and he could vaguely see the behavior of the jar.  At first glance, this thing was quite new, which made Lao Hu not very optimistic about it. But then, the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became. Why did this jar look more and more like the glaze from the Yuan Dynasty?  red.  "Isn't it really the underglaze red from the Yuan Dynasty?" Thinking of this, Lao Hu's heart felt as if it had been scratched by a cat, and he wanted to snatch the jar from the old man's hand.  Over there, the old man was setting a price for the middle-aged man. After a while, he offered 50,000 yuan, which made Lao Hu more and more convinced that this was really a red glazed jar from the Yuan Dynasty.  The middle-aged man's eyes were full of greed at this time, but after a while he said with some dejection: "Uncle, it's not that I don't want to sell, it's just that our village has publicized that anything dug out of the ground will be confiscated.  What if I sell something to you and the police arrest me and go to jail? " "Hey! You know this" At this point, the old man seemed to think of Lao Hu next to him.  So he smiled and said to Lao Hu: "Brother, what you see is what you see. Since you have seen it, how about I give you five hundred yuan later?" Lao Hu also understood what the old man meant. The five hundred yuan  The money is nothing more than hush money, but now he has become more and more suspicious that the thing is a good product. How can he give up a golden mountain for a small profit?  "Old gentleman, I say you are a little unkind!" Seeing that the old man was a little stunned by his words, Lao Hu went on to say: "This big brother and I discovered this thing together, and I haven't even looked at it yet.  , you just grabbed it, are you being unkind?" When the old man heard what Lao Hu said, he couldn't help but blush, and said apologetically: "Brother, I'm really sorry, my attention was attracted by this thing just now.  It's over, I did something wrong, please forgive me, brother!" Old Hu also accepted it and said, "Can you pass that thing on to me now?" "This" The old man was confused for a moment.  He seemed a little hesitant, as if he was worried about something.  At this time, the middle-aged man spoke: "I say, old man, this is your fault. This big brother and I obviously saw the thing together. We didn't blame you for interfering. Did you give the thing to this person?"  You guys can¡¯t even take a look?¡± ¡°Okay!¡± The old man thought for a while, gritted his teeth and agreed, and then carefully placed the jar on the ground.  When Lao Hu saw the old man¡¯s movements, he was even more sure that he was an expert, and he became even more convinced about this underglaze red jar.  When Lao Hu took the jar in his hand, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that it was really a red glaze jar from the Yuan Dynasty.  The shape of the vessel is right, the tire is right, the glaze color is right, and the craftsmanship is right. Apart from the fact that the jar feels new, there are no other problems at all.  However, there is a saying that you would rather buy the real thing than the fake one. No one stipulates that antiques must be old, and there are many reasons why they look new. For example, not long after they were unearthed, they were buried in the ground again, or  This used to be something that was passed down in an orderly manner, but it may become very new.  After confirming the authenticity of the item, Lao Hu felt a burning sensation in his heart. There was no way he could stop his luck. He unexpectedly came across a Yuan Dynasty item with red glaze. Could this be a sign that I was going to get rich?  "Brother, I wonder what you think of this thing?" Just as Lao Hu was imagining a life of luxury and luxury, a voice suddenly came from his ears, which brought him back to his senses.I can't help but feel a little angry, old guy!  If it weren't for you, the thing would be in my hands now.  Let¡¯s not talk about whether this is a game or not. When Old Hu thought this way, he didn¡¯t even think about it. He was clearly ready to leave just now. Now that he felt that something was right, he complained about this old man. This greedy man was a bit unreasonable.  .
