    Originally, Chu Chen planned to fly back to Beijing early tomorrow morning, but because of the "Zhang Huoni" incident, he probably had to wait for another day or two before leaving. It would be okay to go back, and the warm hospitality was difficult to refuse.  , Chu Chen and Uncle Wu could only agree.  Du Hou filled Chu Chen's cup with tea very politely, and then said gratefully: "Xiao Chu, I'm so grateful to you today. If it weren't for you, I probably wouldn't have known in my life that I  The blue and white bowl I bought at the stall out of curiosity will be a real Yuan blue and white one!" Chu Chen waved his hands repeatedly: "It's just luck, and if your bowl didn't have its own content, I would have discovered it too!  I can¡¯t understand the problem!¡± Du Hou didn¡¯t say anything more about this, and said with a slight smile: ¡°You guys sit here for a while, I¡¯ll be there soon!¡± Then he stood up from the sofa and walked into the house.  After a while, Du Hou came out holding a brocade box, and then carefully placed it on the coffee table. While opening the lid of the box, he smiled and said to Chu Chen: "Xiao Chu, please help me round it this time."  I can¡¯t repay Yuan Qinghua¡¯s dream, so I¡¯ll transfer this precious purple clay teapot I got in my early years to you!¡± When Chu Chen and Uncle Wu heard what Du Hou said, they immediately knew that this purple clay teapot should not be forgotten.  Simple, so they all looked into the box curiously, but when the two of them saw the unique shape of the purple clay pot, they couldn't help but be a little dazed.  After a while, Chu Chen came back to his senses and asked Du Hou with some disbelief: "Mr. Du, is this a spring offering pot?" Du Cha came out and spread his hands and said: "I think this should be a offering pot.  Spring pot, but the spring pot is really famous, and there are relatively few of its pots. Even the few pots that are now considered to be authentic are still controversial. Is my pot really a spring pot?  It¡¯s hard to say! Whether this pot is real or not, let¡¯s discuss it after you have seen it!¡± Chu Chen nodded in agreement, and then politely asked Uncle Wu to look at it first, and Uncle Wu did not refuse.  Putting on gloves, he carefully took out the purple clay pot from the box and looked at it carefully.  Speaking of purple clay pots, the name Gongchun is familiar to both the purple clay pot artists and the majority of purple clay pot enthusiasts.  Gong Chun was a native of the Hongzhi and Zhengde years of the Ming Dynasty, also known as Gong Chun. He was originally a family boy of Wu Yishan, who studied Xian.  Wu Yishan.  A famous official with the courtesy name Kexue, he was friendly with Tang Bohu and others in Suzhou.  He was a Jinshi in the Jiaxu year of Zhengde, and later promoted Sichuan to participate in politics as the Deputy Envoy for Education. This man was also a slightly famous person at that time.  According to records, Wu Yishan failed to pass the Jinshi.  It is advisable to study and enjoy Jinsha Temple.  The book boy offered spring to "give him some free time" and discovered that the monks of Jinsha Temple had refined the fine soil used to make pottery jars and pottery urns, kneaded them into a body, made them round and hollow, and made them into pot-like shapes.  He "imitated the craftsmanship of the old monk. He also sifted fine soil, rolled it into the hole of a teaspoon, and plucked the inside and outside with his fingers," and made a teapot with "maroon color as dark as ancient gold iron". This is the famous purple sand teapot later.  Later, his spring-making skills improved, and his owner Wu Yishan finally made him the first famous master in the history of purple clay pots, and he was confirmed as the founder.  It is precisely because of this that spring pots are particularly valuable.  For hundreds of years since the late Ming Dynasty, it has been a rare treasure that people have been pursuing.  Zhou Shu's "Hundred Odes of Taiyang": "The most important thing is the small spring-offering pot. If one is used for decades, it is worth a gold wat." However, spring-offering pots are rare and handed down from generation to generation. There are only three records, and the most famous one is  The old is suitable. The tree gall spring pot collected by Nan Qiang, the wise prince of Xingxiang, is now stored in the National History Museum in Beijing.  .  At this time, the purple clay pot in Uncle Wu's hand was also a gall pot.  As the name suggests, the pot body is shaped like a pine tree gall, and the handle is shaped like a branch. However, the lid is not melon-shaped like the tree gall pot in the museum.  It is an ordinary round cover, but the surface is as concave and gall-like as the body of the pot. It matches the body of the pot and looks like a whole.  In fact, the lid of the gall pot in the museum is not the original one.  The pot was purchased by Mr. Chu Nanqiang at a street stall in 1928.  After many investigations and research, he learned that this pot was once collected in the home of Wu Dacheng, a great collector in the late Qing Dynasty.  He believed that this pot was a genuine Gongchun pot, but the lid was made by Huang Yulin, a famous pot maker in the late Qing Dynasty.  When the painter Huang Binhong saw this and came to the pot, he thought that Huang Yulin's lid was "a crown and a crown", so he asked Mr. Pei Shimin, a famous pot maker in the Republic of China, to put a tree gall-shaped lid on it and made an inscription for it.  In other words, no one can tell what the original lid of the tree gall pot looked like, and the pots made in spring are relatively random, so it is unlikely that two real tree gall pots will be the same when compared.  Uncle Wu looked at the tree gall pot in his hand again and again, and after a long time he put the pot back to its original position. Seeing this, Du Hou quickly asked: "Xiao Wu, what do you think of this pot?" Uncle Wu Haha  He smiled and said: "I think the charm of this pot is very good. It is a good pot for spring."The sex is very high. As for what it will be like, let¡¯s wait until Xiao Chen reads it!  " Chu Chen nodded. After getting ready, he couldn't wait to take the pot out of the box and look at it carefully. " This pot has a simple and exquisite shape, and the whole body is natural and simple. Although it is the same as the one in the museum, it is a tree gall pot.  They look different on the surface. If you compare the two, they look like two completely different tree galls. Of course, because the spring pots are all handmade, if the two pots have the same appearance, they must be at least  One of the pots was a fake. At first glance, this pot seemed to have a heavy body, but when Chu Chen took the pot in his hand, it felt quite light. When he opened the lid and looked closely, he could see that the lid was indeed real.  It is very thin, which fully reflects the pure, thin and solid nature of the spring pot. In addition, there are two words "gongchun" engraved on the handle. Like Uncle Wu, Chu Chen took this spring pot after a long time.  After careful observation, he finally used the power, and the result was quite surprising to him. ¡°Xiao Chen (Xiao Chu), what do you think of this pot?  "Seeing that Chu Chen had finished reading, Uncle Wu and Du Hou asked in unison. Chu Chen said with a smile: "I think this should be an authentic spring pot!  "    "oh?  What do you think? Can you tell me?  "Du Hou asked quickly. "Then let me tell you some of my opinions.  ¡± Chu Chen talked eloquently: ¡°We know that at the time of Gongchun, the craftsmanship of purple clay teapots was still very primitive. The technologies of making barrels, inlaid barrels and mold blocks were not possible at this time, so it was impossible to make Gongchun pots.  The above-mentioned technical characteristics and originality are the main characteristics of the spring pot. I think the spring pots at that time were probably hand-kneaded and then trimmed with simple tools, and even finger marks can be seen on the pot.  " "And this pot reflects such characteristics.  In addition, because the technology at that time was very primitive, the soil should be very rough and the particles should be very coarse. At the same time, because it was fired in an open fire and in the same kiln as the vat, the color of the fired vessel was not uniform enough, and there should be tears of vat glaze splashing on the body.  And this pot also shows these two points.  " Uncle Wu and Du Hou nodded repeatedly after hearing this, agreeing with both points Chu Chen said. Chu Chen also continued to express his opinions: "Also, we know that the production of spring pots is very casual.  It doesn't matter if it accidentally gets damaged somewhere during the production process or scratches the surface, but even so, if it is a real spring pot, it can fully express the meaning it wants to express.  " "And this pot is like this. Although the surface looks bumpy and there are fingerprints on some places, the vigorous, ancient, natural and simple connotation of this pot can be seen at a glance. I don't know that except for the few in history,  Apart from the few masters of purple clay pots, who else can express these meanings easily and casually!  " Chu Chen finally concluded: "To sum up, I think this purple clay pot should be a real spring pot!  " " Bang bang!  " After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Uncle Wu and Du Hou couldn't help but applaud him. Chu Chen praised him humbly. After a while, he asked curiously: "Mr. Du, take the liberty  I have a question, how did you get this spring pot?  Du Hou laughed when he heard this and said, "I think it's funny now that I think about it!"  ¡­¡± Things went back to ten years ago. Du Hou went to the capital for business. Since he had to stay for a long time and he had no other hobbies in his spare time, he often went to the antique market to find some gadgets.  Happy. Once, Du Hou walked to a relatively secluded place and found an old man with a weathered face. His clothes were very shabby and very rustic. Du Hou immediately thought of the old man before liberation.  He was taking goods out of a very worn cloth bag, and the old patched stall on the ground in front of him was quickly filled. But what made Du Hou feel strange was that before the old man could do it,  After the things were put out for a long time, several people gathered around them. In the blink of an eye, everyone picked something. Some of them picked up a magnifying glass and took a quick look at it, some turned it over and over to find something wrong, and some even took a few glances at it.  , he happily paid and left. This made Du Hou very surprised and secretly wondered, could the things at that stall be so good and so popular?  As an antique, he felt that there was something sinister about it. But the next scene made Du Hou immediately understand what the lively scene was for. After a while, he saw those people picking and choosing.  , there was a middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears, dressed like a nouveau riche, hurried to the old man's stall, probably??Seeing that there were no good things on the stall, a look of disappointment immediately appeared on his face.  But just as the middle-aged man was about to leave, an old man with glasses, neatly combed hair, and simple but clean clothes who looked like a senior intellectual walked up to the stall
