    After Lu Zhengyuan left, Mr. Su shook his head: "This Lao Lu is really getting better and better as he gets older. He is so small-minded and not at all what an elder should be."

    Mr. Hou sneered: "When did he change? He hasn't always been like this. He's so petty. When Mr. Yan didn't retire, he was so stubborn! In the past few years, he doesn't look so arrogant.  ¡±

    "Okay, Lao Hou, please stop saying a few words and don't get in a bad mood because of him." Jiang Weiwen persuaded with a smile. After all, he is from a neighborhood. Although Lu Zhengyuan has such and such problems, for the sake of his teacher  On the other hand, it is not good to make things incompatible with each other.

    Since Jiang Weiwen said this, everyone stopped talking about this topic and turned to look at the Xuande furnace on the table.

    The more Mr. Su looked at it, the more he liked it. He couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Meng, do you have any ideas about taking action on this Xuande furnace?"

    After all, Meng Zitao is his favorite junior. Jiang Weiwen helped him speak: "I'm talking about Lao Su, it's useless for you to ask. For example, if you own such a Xuande furnace, would you want to change hands?"

    Mr. Su smiled bitterly: "Yeah, I wouldn't change hands if it were me. It seems that my wish to get a real Xuande furnace will never be realized in my lifetime."

    What Mr. Su said was pitiful, but Meng Zitao didn't dare to answer. He was very aware of the cunning of some seniors in this industry. Often they wanted to get something, and although they didn't do anything to get it, they couldn't do anything wrong.  How much, and since the price is fair, it¡¯s hard to say.  If you answer the call yourself, you may step into a trap, so at this time, it is better to speak less.

    Seeing that Meng Zitao was unmoved, Mr. Su had a look of pity in his eyes, and then said: "Xiao Meng, you'd better put your things away. If we continue to read, we won't have the intention to talk about other things."

    Meng Zitao smiled and said hello, and then, with everyone's reluctant expressions, he collected the Xuande furnace and handed it over to the army.

    "Okay." Jiang Weiwen clapped his hands: "Everyone is satisfied, let's talk about this pair of revolving bottles. Xiao Meng, what do you think of this pair of revolving bottles?"

    Meng Zitao bowed his hands to everyone and said politely, "I think one of these pairs of revolving vases from the Qianlong period is a replica."

    Everyone nodded, because this is a very normal view. The reason is that the process of the rotating bottle is too complicated. The size of each part must be carefully calculated, and special attention must be paid to the temperature and heat control during firing. Once it is  A slight deformation will cause all the efforts in manufacturing the entire device to be wasted.

    Although it cannot be said that it is impossible to make a pair of identical revolving bottles, the possibility is very slim, especially since the revolving bottle had just been invented during the Qianlong Dynasty and the craftsmanship was not yet very skilled.

    You should know that Tang Ying once said in the memorial because of the difficulty in craftsmanship: "The slave has made nine new designs, including exquisite laminated exquisite Jiaotai bottles, and I would like to send them to the capital in a respectful manner. The various new designs are due to the ignorance of the slave."  , I drew it up by myself, fearing that it would not be suitable, and the work and materials would be excessive, so I did not dare to make more. I pray that the emperor will teach me to correct it, so that I can burn it in pairs again."

    When Emperor Qianlong saw these ingenious works, he did not praise or criticize them. Instead, he commented on Tang Ying's memorial: "There is no need to burn as many porcelains as usual. From now on, more than ten pieces will be made by section."

    It can be seen that even Emperor Qianlong felt that the craftsmanship was too complex and labor-intensive, considering how difficult it was.

    "Then which one do you think is problematic?" Jiang Weiwen asked.

    Meng Zitao pointed to the revolving bottle on the right and said, "If I read it correctly, there should be something wrong with this one."

    Mr. Su was quite surprised by the answer given by Meng Zitao, because no matter from every aspect, the one on the right is better than the one on the left, and it seems to be more in line with the style of the imperial kiln factory at that time, but Meng Zitao said that there was something wrong with it,  I have to say that it was too unexpected, and at the same time I was extremely curious as to why Meng Zitao made this judgment.

    "Xiao Meng, why do you think this one is a fake, but this one is the real thing?"

    Meng Zitao smiled slightly, and seeing that at least half of the seniors present had puzzled expressions on their faces, he began to explain.

    "Maybe people think that this revolving bottle is more like the real thing, but I don't think so. As for the reason, let's start with the production process of the revolving bottle. Making such a revolving bottle is extremely complicated, and the production process can be  A simple summary is: first, make the inner bottle part first; second, make the outer bottle, which needs to be fired in two parts, one for the mouth and neck, and one for the shoulders and belly.¡±

    ¡°Finally, the inner bottle and the outer bottle are combined together and fired again, and the bottom of the outer bottle is made in advance.Connect the small column button at the center of the tenon, put the inner bottle in the center of the tenon, and finally glue the neck, shoulder and abdomen of the outer bottle together.  How to glue and fix is ??very critical.  Everyone should be able to notice that at the connection between the shoulder and belly of this bottle, the ridge line of the shoulder is very round. Although it is decorated with lacquer, the two should be bonded together with low-temperature glaze"

    Hearing this, Mr. Hou clapped his hands together: "I understand, the craftsmanship of the bottle on the right is wrong. It is not at the level it should have been during the Qianlong period. Although we have deduced the production process now, we still can't figure it out. After gluing the two pieces together,  When it is put into the kiln for the second time, how to control the temperature without damaging the pastel part of the inner bottle. And the production has not cracked this process, so we adopted a different method from the original process."

    After hearing what Mr. Hou said, Mr. Su and others also reacted. They stepped forward to observe carefully and found the difference in craftsmanship between the two. Based on their understanding of the revolving bottle, there was obviously something wrong with the one on the right.  .

    Jiang Weiwen said: "In fact, based on the craftsmanship of the revolving bottle, it can be inferred that the cost of imperfect appearance was a normal phenomenon at the time. It would be a bit idealistic to judge authenticity based on appearance."

    Mr. Su couldn't help but nodded and said with emotion: "As the old saying goes, the waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and each generation becomes stronger than the last. We old guys should really abdicate."

    Meng Zitao said quickly: "Mr. Su, what you said is wrong. As the old saying goes, a family with an elder is like a treasure. And I am where I am today because of my master's teachings. Without his careful teaching, I would not be able to reach my level today.  I don¡¯t have the ability I have now.¡±

    Mr. Su smiled and said: "Haha, Xiao Meng, don't be humble. I admire Mr. Zheng very much, but at such an age, you are able to achieve what you are now, not only because of Mr. Zheng's teachings, but also because of Mr. Zheng's teachings.  It sounds good, but your two senior brothers are far behind you."

    Meng Zitao waved his hand quickly: "Mr. Su, please don't say that. What if our senior brothers hear this and they want to spank me?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel  .com
