    "Okay, let's take a look at these boxes first. n¡Ê" Jiang Jiachang said with a smile while opening a box not far away.  This box looks larger than other boxes, and there are a lot of things inside, including a pair of blue and white lotus-shaped lidded jars with folded branches and flowers that are nearly 30 centimeters high.  This pair of blue and white jars have lotus-seed button lids, arched surfaces, floral rims, and mouth; the jars have a high, straight neck, with slippery shoulders; a rounded belly, in the shape of a button, gradually tapering down; the tall, straight shank, and shank  The sides are turned out, the bottom is flat, and the feet are dug into the circle.  Chu Chen picked up one of the pieces and observed it carefully. He found that it was white and solid, with white glaze applied on it.  The inner edge of the lid and the inner edge of the jar reveal white fine sand.  The cover, neck and shins are decorated with hidden reliefs; blue and white patterns are painted, and the color is blue with gray in it.  The cover is decorated with two layers of lotus seed pattern; the cover is decorated with three layers of decoration, the upper and lower layers are painted with lotus seed pattern, and the middle layer is decorated with leaf-shaped consecrated branch stems and leaves pattern; the neck is decorated with two layers of pattern, with folded branch flower pattern and leaf-shaped consecrated folded branch lotus pattern border.  ; The belly of the vessel has three layers of decoration, with the upper and lower layers painted with leaf-shaped consecrated and folded branches and lotus patterns; the middle layer is thematic decoration with broken branches and flower patterns; the shin has four layers of decoration, with crossbar mesh patterns, leaf petal patterns, leaf tip patterns and concentric circles  Patterned edges.  Generally speaking, Hailao porcelain during the Ming and Qing Dynasties was fired from local kilns in the porcelain capital and coastal areas. Although it cannot be compared with the porcelain from the official kilns of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it has a more obvious historical background because it comes from shipwrecks.  The cultural and historical value reflected cannot be underestimated.  Just like the blue and white jar in Chu Chen's hand, judging from various characteristics, it should have been fired at a local kiln in the southeastern province during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. In terms of craftsmanship, it is definitely not as good as the official kiln that spared no effort.  Made of porcelain.  But as for the painter.  Not only is it not inferior to the official kiln, but it also looks a little more spiritual.     and.  Except for the traces of seawater erosion on the surface of this pair of blue and white jars, they are quite perfect in other aspects.  There are no bumps at all, and there are no remains of marine life. Coupled with the cultural and historical value of the artifacts, it can be said that they are a very good pair of blue and white porcelain obtained from the sea, and the collection value is not low.  Although based on the current market price, the market price of this pair of blue and white cans is only about 50,000, but Chu Chen and Zhao Qirui are still quite satisfied with it.  In this box, in addition to the pair of blue and white jars, there is also a pair of blue and white large plates.  Just like the pair of blue and white jars, except that the craftsmanship is not as good as the official kiln porcelain, the painting and appearance are perfect, and the potential for appreciation is also good.  After Chu Chen and Zhao Qirui had appreciated the box of porcelain from the sea, Jiang Jiachang opened three more boxes for them to check. The quality of the porcelain inside was similar to the first box, which made the two very satisfied.  Zhao Qirui put a blue and white bowl from the Kangxi period back into the box and asked, "I'm telling you, Fatty Jiang, the porcelain from the sea in your box. Aren't they all of this quality?" "This is definitely not the case.  It's possible." Jiang Jiachang shook his head quickly, pointed to the pile of boxes on the left, and said, "Only these are relatively good, and the others have more or less problems, but it's not a big problem here.  A small number of them are a little bit damaged, but if you want to sell them, it's still okay." Zhao Qirui was a little curious and said, "Well, let's take a look at the damaged ones first." "Okay.  He went to the side and opened the box and said: "These are mainly due to some punches. Or the glaze is a little serious, and there are too many attachments on the surface" As the old saying goes, 'Porcelain with rough edges is not worth half a penny.'  , if it was those rare porcelains, they would still be worth some money if they were damaged enough, but the porcelain in front of them was just porcelain from the sea. Zhao Qirui wanted to see what kind of porcelain they were, so that Jiang Jiachang would have the confidence to sell them.  "Eh!" When they saw the porcelain in the box, both of them were a little surprised, because just from the blue and white color of the porcelain, the two experienced people felt that these porcelain had the characteristics of Xuande blue and white.  Are these porcelains from the sea all Xuande blue and white porcelain?  If this is the case, it is no wonder that Jiang Jiachang has confidence in these residual weapons.  Afterwards, the two of them picked up a piece of porcelain and observed it.  What Chu Chen took was a chicken heart bowl. The mouth of the bowl was decorated with money and brocade inscriptions on the inside and a pattern on the outside.  The center of the bowl is decorated with floral patterns throughout.  The outer wall of the bowl near the foot is decorated with cattail leaves and lotus petals.  Encircle the feet and apply patterns.  There is a mark on the bottom of the bowl "Made in the Xuande Year of the Ming Dynasty".  The shape of the whole bowl is simple and elegant, the glaze color is pure and thick, and the blue and white blue and white are rich and green in color, which is a typical Subo mud-green material. The decoration is pure and elegant, and it has the beauty of Xuande blue and white.  However, in addition to shells and other attachments on the surface of this chicken heart bowl, there were also several openings of different sizes on the edge of the mouth, which made Chu Chen feel quite regretful.  After putting the chicken heart bowl back in its original place, Chu Chen took out the porcelains in the box one by one and identified them. He found that each piece showed the typical characteristics of Xuande blue and white, but the condition of each piece of porcelain was different from that of the chicken heart bowl.  Pretty much, superficial issues.??Somewhat serious.  "What a pity these porcelains are." Zhao Qirui sighed and asked, "Fat Jiang, aren't there any better-looking porcelains from this batch of sea-harvested porcelains?" Jiang Jiachang also shook his head regretfully: "No, these porcelains are all  It was found in a small and medium-sized ship. According to the salvage personnel, these porcelains were considered to be in good condition. However, it is also possible that the ones in good condition were sold directly on the market. After all, these porcelains were in good condition.  Porcelain is a hot commodity on the market. "Speaking of which, although the emergence of Hailuo porcelain aroused the interest of collectors, at first, they were just curious and just wanted to add new varieties.  When collectors discovered many unseen porcelains and many rare treasures among these haphazardly acquired porcelains from the sea, they were initially skeptical, then shocked, and finally disillusioned.  As a result, Hailao porcelain became popular.  Although they had expected it in advance, Zhao Qirui and Chu Chen still felt a little regretful when they heard this answer.  Next, the two of them continued the appraisal. Because there were more than 30,000 pieces of porcelain on site and they didn't have much time, they finally decided to conduct random inspections. Anyway, Jiang Jiachang still had property in the mainland, and Zhao Qirui was not worried that he had deceived people and escaped.  road.  Of course, even though he said that, it was a business involving hundreds of millions of dollars, so for Zhao Qirui, it was still too late to be careless.     but.  None of the three people present knew that Chu Chen was identifying these things.  All you need to do is sense it directly with your superpower.  Although this matter cannot be told, it also eliminates the possibility of Jiang Jiachang playing tricks.  When Chu Chen and Zhao Qirui were conducting appraisals there.  Jiang Jiachang was standing by to introduce some of the porcelain fished from the sea to the two of them.  "It is possible to clean the attachments on the surface of this part of the porcelain. As for whether to wash it or not, it depends on your opinion." Zhao Qirui said: "Isn't this nonsense? Why not clean it if it can be cleaned?" Jiang Family  Chang smiled: "Mr. Zhao, you may not know this well. Some buyers also like to leave some attachments on them, otherwise it will be difficult for them to believe that porcelain is fished out of the sea." Not to mention, there are indeed some on the market.  In this case, the fishermen who found these porcelains that had been sleeping on the seabed for a long time cleaned them thoroughly.  But some buyers just don't believe it.  Therefore, in order to convince buyers that they are selling genuine sea-caught porcelain, these fishermen often swear at first and even take out their ID cards to prove their identity as fishermen.  Later, as the business grew more and more, the fishermen found that those porcelain fished from the sea that were covered with sand stains or stained with marine life did not require much effort.  Some porcelain is simply not cleaned.  Of course, this is just for ordinary porcelain. If it is the exquisite blue and white porcelain from Xuande just now, it can be cleaned.  It's better to wash it off.  Time passed quickly, and most of the Haiilao porcelain in the warehouse was randomly inspected.  Jiang Jiachang's cell phone suddenly rang, and he walked over and answered the phone.  After saying a few words, he put away his phone and walked back to his original position. ???????????????? Later.  Jiang Jiachang smiled and said, "What a coincidence. A friend of mine happened to have recently salvaged some porcelain from the sea and wanted to send it over. It is said that some of them are special varieties." "What special porcelain?" Zhao Qirui  asked curiously.  "He didn't say much on the phone. Anyway, he is almost here" At this point, everyone heard the sound of parking outside the door. Jiang Jiachang continued: "It should be them. Let's go out and take a look together?"  " "Okay" The four of them walked to the door of the warehouse and saw a dark-skinned man approaching forty years old walking towards them.  Behind him were two men carrying boxes.  The big man walked up quickly, shook hands with Jiang Jiachang, and said in a rough voice: "Haha, Boss Jiang, I'm going to trouble you again this time!" "As long as you give me more discounts, I will still miss you.  You often come to 'trouble' me," Jiang Jiachang said with a smile.  "Hey, isn't this just a matter of words!" The big man chuckled, but he didn't express much in his words.  Jiang Jiachang knew the big man's character very well and sneered: "You just like to talk without practicing, it's really boring." The big man didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "I am also a small business, I hope Boss Jiang can  "Please be considerate." "Come on, you have various reasons every time." Jiang Jiachang snorted, and then introduced the two parties: "This is Mr. Zhao and Mr. Chu from the capital. They are both in the industry.  " With that said, he pointed at the big man and introduced to Chu Chen and Zhao Qirui: "This is Tao Chunhai. He is considered a veteran now. Maybe there will be opportunities for cooperation in the future. " Tao Chunhai met Jiang Jiachang and told Zhao Qirui and Chu Chen.  NoHe was always polite and immediately showed great enthusiasm. He quickly reached out his hand and said hello to the two of them.  Zhao Qirui and Chu Chen also stretched out their hands to shake each other's hands and exchanged a few words.  At this time, Jiang Jiachang said: "Okay, you just said you caught some special porcelain? Take it out and show it to us." "Okay, okay" Tao Chunhai nodded repeatedly, and then  He opened the box he had brought over, pointed to the blue and white teacups in front of him, and said, "That's it. The mark is called 'Wu Liang Dafu Wu Xiangrui'. This is the first time I've seen such porcelain.  How about it, is it special?¡± After hearing this, Jiang Jiachang said with a smile: ¡°Isn¡¯t this the blue and white porcelain exported to the island country in the Ming Dynasty? I think you are too ignorant, right?¡± This is signed ¡°Wuliangda¡±  The blue and white porcelain "Made by Wu Xiangrui" was exported to the island country during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. It was very well made and was not inferior to the fine products from the official kilns. It was called "Xiangrui" or "Xiangrui Hand" by the island country.  It is said that this Wuliang Dafu, whose original name was Ito Wuliangsuke, was a ceramic artist from the island country. In the sixth year of Masanori in the Ming Dynasty (AD 1511), he came to my country's porcelain capital to study with the Japanese Rinzai Zen monk Gui Wu (also known as Liao'an). Porcelain making technology.  In order to adapt to the life of porcelain making in my country, he took the name "Wu Xiangrui".  During the period of studying porcelain in my country.  The porcelain made by him is often signed with the words "Made by Wu Xiangrui, Wuliang Dafu" on the base.  The porcelain made by it generally includes bowls, basins, pots and jars, etc., because the porcelain has regular shape and fine white texture.  The shape of the vessel is regular, the glaze layer is bright, and the blue and white flowers are bright, so it is very popular in the market.  At that time, the blue and white porcelain imported by the island country from my country was divided into three categories: "Xiangrui", "Ranfu" and "Wuxu". Xiangrui was the top grade among them, and received extremely high evaluation and status.  Their works are generally inscribed or written with the inscription: "Wu Xiangrui" or "Wu Liang Dafu Xiangrui" or "Wu Liang Dafu Wu Xiangrui made", which is called the Xiangrui school.  The shapes, patterns, and glaze colors of the utensils are all obviously influenced by Chinese porcelain.  "Is that what happened?" Tao Chunhai looked surprised.  "Otherwise, what do you think?" Jiang Jiachang chuckled: "I told you a long time ago that since you are engaged in this industry, you should learn more relevant knowledge and see. Are you making a joke again?" "I'm just a rude person.  People get dizzy when they read books, so they don¡¯t want to learn.¡± Tao Chunhai smiled and thought to himself, he must find a few books to read when he goes back. Even if he can¡¯t learn well, he must have an idea.  Then, he quickly asked: "Is this kind of porcelain worth anything?" "What's the hurry? Let us see it first." Jiang Jiachang waved his hand.  Picked up a blue and white figure plate and started looking at it.  While the two were talking, Chu Chen had already looked at a set of blue and white teacups, and saw that the teacups were fine and white in texture and regular in shape.  The glaze layer is bright and the blue and white color is beautiful. It seems to be the color of the green material.  The bottom invoice is "Made by Wu Xiangrui, the great master of Wuliang".  Judging from the performance of this set of tea sets, it does conform to the characteristics of "auspicious" porcelain.  And from the perspective of production technology, it also conforms to the characteristics of the original "auspicious" porcelain.  It should not have been imitated in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.  However, although these porcelains are quite exquisitely made, their surfaces still have the characteristics of porcelain found in the sea, and the erosion can be seen with the naked eye, which undoubtedly affects the value of the porcelains.  After they had looked at a box of porcelain, Jiang Jiachang said with a click of his tongue: "I didn't expect that Wu Xiangrui's craftsmanship is very good. No wonder the islanders call him the 'Porcelain Saint'." Chu Chen shook his head: "That's not right.  Well, isn't the 'Porcelain Saint' of the island country Li Shenping? And it is controversial whether Wu Xiangrui exists. " "What?" Jiang Jiachang and Zhao Qirui were a little confused after hearing this.  Chu Chen explained: "Because, even if the birth of auspicious porcelain is advanced to the end of Wanli period according to historical data, which is around 1603, assuming that Wuliang Dafu was 20 years old when he came to our country in 1511, he would have lived to at least 112 years old in 1603  Only then can we see the emergence of Xiangrui porcelain in the island country. What do you think is the possibility of this? " When everyone thought about it, they felt that this possibility was really unlikely, and for a while they began to doubt whether Wu Xiangrui existed.  After a while, Jiang Jiachang asked curiously: "Then how did these auspicious porcelain come about?" "According to relevant records in the Qing Dynasty: 'Zhengde Zhong got foreign Qingqing, the price is twice that of gold, knowing that it can be  The kiln wares were ordered to be used, and their colors were ancient. Therefore, there were many fine blue and white products in the official kilns At that time, the factory workers were selling civilian pottery for profit.  '" Chu Chen said: "In other words, during the Zhengde period, the managers of the official kilns in the porcelain capital used money worth more than gold for their own selfish interests.The imported green materials from ?? were stolen and sold to private kilns.  Of course, this kind of high-end folk kiln porcelain made from high-priced and improperly sourced materials cannot be circulated in our country. To meet the needs of island country tea set merchants, detouring exports has become the only feasible sales channel.  " "Since the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, almost all materials exported to island countries have gone through the southeastern coastal ports.  Products from the porcelain capital can only be transported long distances to the south for customs clearance.  In order to prevent being intercepted halfway, every effort must be made to cover it up.  " "In this way, fabricating a false name of 'Made by the Five Liang Dafu Wu Xiangrui' out of thin air can cause people in our country to think that it is made by the island country, while people from the island country think that it is an illusion created by our country, so as to be foolproof and get away with it.  This is why it is rare to see the auspicious porcelain relics from that year in our country, and the inscription "Made by Wu Xiangrui, the Five Liang Dafu" is the best explanation that there is no evidence in either country.  " Speaking of this, Chu Chen chuckled and said: "Of course, all this is just my speculation. It is unknown what the true history is.  " After hearing Chu Chen's explanation, Zhao Qirui smiled and said: "It doesn't matter whether it exists or not, I'm unlikely to buy this kind of porcelain.  "    "Why?  "Tao Chunhai couldn't calm down after hearing this. These porcelains are related to their profits from this trip. If these porcelains are not worth much, won't he lose money this time? Zhao Qirui replied: "  This kind of porcelain is not mainstream in the market, and the quality is not good, so it has little potential for appreciation. Why should I buy it?  Tao Chunhai quickly looked at Jiang Jiachang and asked anxiously: "Boss Jiang, are these porcelains really worthless?"  Jiang Jiachang said: "Tell me this, the market value of your box of porcelain is only about 10,000 yuan. Do you think it is worth it?"  " Tao Chunhai opened his mouth wide after hearing this. He didn't come back to his senses for a long time. After a while, he clapped his hands and said depressedly: "Sure enough, meeting a dead person is bad luck!  " "What dead person?  "Jiang Jiachang asked curiously. Tao Chunhai said depressedly: "Yesterday when we were approaching the dock, we fished a person out of the sea, but he died within a short while.  Moreover, you should also know this person, Boss Jiang.  "    "who?  !  " "Su Changtou" (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
