When the mixture is ready, you can just use garlic cloves to smear it. After wiping, tie it with a rope and fix it. It will be very firm in two or three days! However, the porcelain glued together in this way had obvious disadvantages, that is, it could not be stained with water. Because of this, Chu Chen did not intend to use it.
Chuchen said with a smile: "Uncle Wu, we'll go to Mr. Du's later. It's too late to do that for a while and a half. Moreover, I was going to ask Mr. Du to help repair this porcelain. Let's talk about it there!"
Uncle Wu nodded in agreement, and immediately said, "OK! Let's go now! I also want to see the style of Chenghua blue and white porcelain earlier! "
Next, Chu Chen put all the ancient books in the safe, picked up the porcelain pieces wrapped by Uncle Wu and the porcelain cups he got a few days ago. Then they went downstairs together, bought some fruits and other gifts, and set out to Du Hou's house in a car rental.
Because the security personnel of the kiln have not arrived yet, Hu Yong has been helping the kiln these two days, so he did not follow.
…………
Twenty minutes later, they took a taxi to the villa where Du Hou lived. As soon as they got out of the car, Du Hou, who was standing at the door, welcomed them with a smile on his face. After a while of greetings, Du Hou welcomed them into the house.
Du Hou has three children in all. His eldest son lives in Shanghai stock market. His second daughter is married out of town, and his youngest son has emigrated. Therefore, there are only two Du Hou and his wife and a nanny living in such a big villa. They feel a little lonely. In Du Hou's words, when chuchen and his family came, the people in his room became more and more popular.
Originally, Du Hou's eldest son wanted him to live in the Shanghai stock market, but Du Hou was used to the life of the porcelain capital, and he loved porcelain. No matter how good the Shanghai stock market was, he was not attracted by the porcelain culture of the Millennium porcelain capital.
Du Hou asked them to sit down. Seeing the present Chu Chen put on the table, he shook his head and said, "I told you before, don't buy gifts. I'm very happy when you come!"
"The first visit, it's all due!" Chuchen said with a smile, "I don't want to trouble you with something. You can feel soft with some gifts."
When the nanny poured the tea for the three, Du Hou made an invitation and said with a smile:
"OK, I'll be soft once. I don't know what you're going to do for me, Xiao Chu?"
Chuchen took out the tiles with a smile, and then spread them on the table.
When Du Hou saw the tiles on the table, he knew what Chu Chen had asked him to do for him. Knowing that what Chu Chen took out should not be so bad, he immediately took out a magnifying glass and looked at it. As a result, he was the same as Uncle Wu's expression before. The more he looked, the more surprised he was. At last, his face was even more loving.
"I said, Xiao Chu, the fracture of this porcelain piece is so new that you didn't break it accidentally, did you?"
"No! I bought these tiles in the morning market Chu Chen waved his hand and said, "if I fell, my master and Uncle Wu would have to beat me up."
"I said Xiao Chu, you shouldn't be so reckless!" Du Hou said with a smile: "well, let's spell it with garlic juice first. There is a number of approximate shapes. Let's talk about others."
Du Hou did this in order to avoid future disputes. If it's really a complete product, it's best. If it's a missing porcelain, it's better to mark it and write it in the contract, so that it's not clear when you get it.
To this, Chu Chen did not have any opinion, direct nod a way: "OK!..."
Next, everyone moved to Du Hou's study. After asking the nanny for relevant things, Chu Chen began to prepare the mixed liquid. Except for the trouble, it was not difficult. Chu Chen was quick, and soon he was successful.
All ready, in Chu Chen's operation, we began a piece by piece, according to the shape of the palace bowl, carefully those tiles are glued together.
The process of adhesion was very smooth. At lunch time, a total of 21 porcelain pieces were glued one by one. With the return of the last piece of porcelain, a Chenghua blue and white Lingzhi tuobao palace bowl with transparent glaze, moist jade, soft and elegant green materials and exquisite painting skills was displayed in front of you.
They enjoyed it for a long time, until they heard that Mrs. Du was going to prepare for dinner.
Du Hou solemnly said: "Xiao Chu, I will do my best to help you repair this palace bowl."
"Thank you! Thank you Chuchen quickly thanks: "how much does it cost? Just tell me!"
"What costs nothing!" Du Hou waved his hand and joked: "it's a great honor to be able to repair such a treasure. Besides, it can also amuse my loneliness. It's good that I didn't give you any money. All right! That's settled. If you raise the money, be careful I'm in a hurry with you! "
Seeing that Du Hou made such a statement, Chu Chen was only a little embarrassed to agree. Then Du Hou wrote a receipt to Chu Chen, which indicated that he would take it three months later.Over there, Mrs. Du came to urge us to have dinner again, and we could only reluctantly walk out of the study.
The lunch was very rich. Talking about the topic of the palace bowl just now, the atmosphere was also very happy. In the end, it could be said that both the guests and the host enjoyed themselves.
After dinner, the three had a rest for a while, and Du Hou invited them into the treasure room with heavy defense.
As soon as they enter the room, Chu Chen and Uncle Wu seem to have come to the sea of antiques and treasures. They are amazed at the variety and variety of collections.
After a long time, Chu Chen came back to himself and exclaimed, "Mr. Du, I didn't expect you to be a big collector. You have so many collections. It's more than enough to open a private museum!"
Du Hou waved his hand and said: "no! no way! I can't be called a big collector. Although I have a large collection, I'm sure that only porcelain is in my collection. I'm not sure whether the others are true or false. "
Chu Chen asked strangely, "you should know a lot of friends in the antique world. Since you can't tell the truth, why don't you let your friends know?"
Du Hou said with a smile: "I like dullele. Besides, as an old man, I often take some good things to ask others to help me. If someone with ulterior motives knows, it's not safe, is it? And I'm afraid of trouble, so I don't think of a name
After listening to Du Hou's explanation, both Chu Chen and Wu Shu deeply believe that it is true that people are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being strong. Once people are famous, there will be more troubles. Moreover, Du Hou and his wife are 70 or 80 years old, and there is only one nanny in their family. If they are really concerned about it, it's really dangerous.
"Well, let's get down to business."
Du Hou said with a smile: "Xiao Chu, I'll be frank. I'm very interested in your justice cup and the Sanskrit cup. If you agree to change it, you can choose from my collection later. If it's porcelain, it's OK to be a little higher. If it's anything else, how do you want to change it? Let's discuss it. I promise you'll be satisfied."
Chu Chen heard speech also very happy said: "OK, but Du Lao, we can say in advance, justice cup can only change the old man, the other civil justice cup, I want to collect."
"OK, you can see for yourself. If you like something, just tell me!..."
Next, Chu Chen and Wu Shu found their own interesting goals and enjoyed them.
If you want to say that Du Hou has a lot of collections, first of all, whether good or bad, there are nearly a thousand of these collections. Of course, these nearly a thousand collections can't be all good things. Most of them are ordinary goods, but there are many good things. Chu Chen has a rough look, and it is estimated that there are nearly a hundred of them.
Just like the porcelain body painting enamel snuff bottle in front of us, it is very good. This snuff bottle is full of shoulders, tube belly, elegant and simple. The body of the vessel is painted with a goldfish. The design of the goldfish is elegant and flexible. It seems that it wants to jump out, implying that the house is full of gold and jade. The lines are detailed, numerous but not complicated, with light blue enamel, elegant colors and gentle gradients.
Although this snuff bottle is a work of the late Qing Dynasty, and the enamel color is not as elegant as the three colors of the Qing Dynasty, it is also a rare masterpiece in terms of its workmanship and painting. Although its value can't even compare with a blue and white Sanskrit cup, chuchen still takes it down as an alternative.
Next, Chu Chen looked at several utensils. There were good things, but they were not what he liked. And as Du Hou said, he was not sure whether the utensils except porcelain were true or false. Chu Chen really met a high antique jade.
The texture of this ancient jade looks ok. It's used as Hetian jade. Generally speaking, Qinghai jade is translucent, which is better than Hetian jade in transparency. Its texture is slightly thicker than Hetian jade, and its proportion is slightly lower than Hetian jade. Its texture is not as delicate as Hetian jade. It lacks the dignified feeling of lanolin jade, and it often has transparent waterline.
But these characteristics need to know this knowledge of people can see, ordinary consumers, it is really not easy to identify, especially in Qinghai jade among the boutique, it is more difficult to judge.
The ancient jade in Chu Chen's hand is a piece of high quality Qinghai jade, which is pretended to be Hetian jade. If it wasn't for the black spots, Chu Chen would have hardly seen it at first sight.
Some ancient jade will be affected by minerals in the ground, resulting in black spots. The method of black spot fraud is to put the "jade" in boiling water and boil it thoroughly, then wrap the stone with soaked broken cotton, and then set it on fire for barbecue. When the cotton is burned to ashes, put wax on the stone, turn it over and wipe it at the same time, and the desired effect can be achieved.
This kind of fake jade with "black spots" is very deceptive. In addition, the quality of the jade is not bad. It's no surprise for people like Du Hou who are not proficient in jade.
