Chapter 71 Yangshao Culture
When World Expo taught Song Yi, he did not forget to choose what he liked. As a celebrity in the East China Collection, World Expo often came to his door. Some wanted to donate to the museum, and some wanted to ask him to do an appraisal. However, not everyone in Song Shibao would receive everything. Things that they wanted to donate to the museum must be genuine before they could be collected.
At this time, Song Shibo took a fancy to a painted pottery double-eared jar. Song Yi also took a brief look and roughly judged it was something from the Neolithic era. It still needs to be carefully looked at which era it will take.
But he knew that this ceramic refers to pottery and porcelain. There were pottery first and then porcelain, and porcelain was derived from pottery. Its invention was gradually explored by ancient Chinese ancestors in the experience of firing white pottery and printed hard pottery. However, most modern people only collect porcelain, and there are very few people who are willing to understand pottery collections, so pottery has basically no economic value, but pottery is a great witness to Chinese civilization.
Song Yi was no exception. He didn't know much about pottery. But under the influence of Song Shibao, he still knew some famous cultural sites in history and typical pottery at that time. Such painted pottery was already very mature during the Yangshao culture period about 7,000 years ago.
When Song Shibo was still taking the exam, Song Yi replied, "I remember my grandfather said before that the identification of ancient pottery mainly starts from the origin, shape, pattern, and production process of ancient pottery."
Song Shibo nodded and signaled him to continue. Song Yi said, "Of course, it is a bit unrealistic to ask about the real source of things in this ghost market. But we can judge from other aspects. Such binaural jars have been made in several major Neolithic civilizations, but using such fine clay pottery fields is the most famous feature of the Yangshao culture. The pottery made of such clay has the surface like this pottery, with a beautiful red color. Secondly, from the production process of this pottery, the process is very mature. It should be made by first using the clay strip plate construction method, and then trimming the edge with slow wheels. This can be seen from the traces in the jar mouth."
Seeing Song Shibo's eyes with praise, Song Yi continued, "Picture pottery has always been famous for its exquisite picture patterns. For example, the human face patterns on the surface of this pottery jar are unique to Yangshao culture. The local face patterns in other civilizations are not like this style, and the Yangshao culture is more delicate and delicate."
Song Shibo chuckled and said to him, "Xiao Yi said it very well. If you want to identify the ceramics of a period, you must first be familiar with the process flow at that time. For example, the production of painted pottery during the Yangshao culture mainly goes through the following four procedures. The first is material selection. I won't say much about this. After they passed the selection, the washing and precipitation of the materials were all relatively delicate and pure raw materials. The second is ring making. As Xiao Yi said just now, the double-eared jars can be seen from the surface. If you look closely, you will find that the outer wall wheel pattern is the best proof."
Song Shibo slowed down and saw Song Yi listening to him carefully. Then he said, "Then there is painting. Xiao Yi just said it makes sense. Every era has a unique painting style, and it is also possible to identify it from this point. However, understanding their process flow will be more helpful for our identification. For example, Yangshao culture painted pottery. Before painting, they often put the pottery into extremely delicate mud to put it on a uniform layer of pottery clothes for coloring. The patterns of pottery during the Yangshao culture were mostly printed on wooden printed boards with patterns. If you look closely, you will find that this was not directly applied."
When Song Yi looked at it, he had indeed ignored this point as he said. Song Yi was also thinking in his heart that he wanted to identify cultural relics. As expected, he had to have a very detailed and in-depth study of the culture at that time, otherwise how could he see it.
"The last thing is to fire. At that time, the earthen pottery kiln had made great progress compared to the original ground bonfire or stove. Because of the kiln room, pottery was not directly grilled on the flames, and the ground flames burned in the fire chamber. Through the fire channel, the temperature inside was very high. This can be seen from the sintering of the pottery." Song Shibo did not deliberately show off. Many things were the results of his own research. Even if Song Yi reads books, he could not see any reputation.
Song Yi listened carefully and nodded from time to time to say yes. Although he didn't say anything, he really wanted to learn from him.
Song Shibo asked about the price. It was only thirty or forty yuan. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a bargain.
This is not unusual. Even the prices of genuine pottery land are generally not high. There are not many people interested in it. However, it has a great collection value for the museum of the Museum of the Heritage Civilization Witness History. Song Shibo decided to buy it without considering it much.
Song Shibo offered ten yuan. The stall owner actually agreed to sell it at once. This made Song Yi not know what to say.
Although Song Shibo and Song Yi both are optimistic about this pottery jar, they can't find any omissions in all aspects. But they are still
The test will be more reassuring.
Song Yi also understood this principle. Although the value of pottery is not high now, no one will fake it now. However, there have been many forgery in the past. This thing may have been unearthed after the counterfeiting of previous generations. It is best to have the most accurate inspection by instruments. At this time, the cost of appraisal is higher than the purchase price.
Song Yi quite understands the responsibilities of Song Shibo. Although the museum has serious management and system loopholes, this is because of the bad human nature and cannot deny the significance of the existence of the museum.
As for Donghai City, Donghai City Museum is the most popular place to spread history and culture to the masses. Although this double-eared colored jar does not have the exquisiteness and gorgeousness of the porcelain behind it, it can allow people to learn more about that history, which records the previous human culture.
Song Yi, who has no economic value, is very supportive of the entry into museums. Without a buyer's market, the custodians will not take the risk of taking it out and selling it.
After that, the two of them basically didn't see anything good. For Song Yi, it was worth it to come to the ghost market. His knowledge gained the recognition of Song Shibo, and he gained a lot of gains.
At around six o'clock, the ghost market was over and everyone went home one after another, and the grandparents and grandchildren returned home with great pleasure. After arriving at home, Song Shibo kindly asked Song Yi to look back and sleep for a while.
Song Yi was not pretentious, and after talking to him for a few words, he went upstairs and went back to his own room.
Song Yi was not worried about whether Lin Baoqing had taken down the secret lotus bowl. She always made him very worried when doing things. Song Yi was also thinking about going to her house in the morning to see the thing he bought.
After reading the book, Su Yalan came and asked him to go down for breakfast.
After breakfast, Song Shibo went to the museum. Song Mingjie had to be busy with things, and he had to handle all aspects of the relationship.
Originally, Su Yalan wanted Song Yi to stay at home during the day, but Song Yi said he would handle the storage of several trucks of jade wool materials. Su Yalan asked where he planned to put it. Song Yi said that his grandfather's house was spacious and Su Mei had already dealt with it first, and said that Song Mingjie would not have to worry about such small things.
Su Yalan thought something was wrong yesterday, but after thinking about it carefully at night, she felt something was even more strange. At this time, when she heard Song Yi mention Su Mei, her doubts became deeper. But she did not make a statement, but called him aside and asked about Su Mei, saying that she didn't work in the bank?
Song Yi admitted at this time, "I accidentally caused Sister Su Mei to lose her job before! But don't worry, mom, I will arrange her work properly."
"You!" Hearing that he admitted the fact, Su Yalan couldn't help but sigh. He didn't know how to say he was good. He said anything careless and so on. This kid was smart! He probably had planned Su Mei to use her as a talisman from the beginning. If Su Mei hadn't watched him, Su Yalan wouldn't have let him go to Yunnan.
Song Yi was quite proud, "Sister Su Mei is really too talented in the banking work, and the atmosphere in the bank is also very good. No matter how you look at it, it is better than staying in the bank."
"The same is true for my mom. What's the point of selling things in a cultural relics store? It will only waste my mom's talent in vain. Think about it, my dad is about to start busying, and will become more and more busy in the future. My mom can consider resigning to help him, and by the way, you can also keep a close eye on him. You can't say this to my dad, I'm just thinking about my mom." Song Yi said and showed a heart-wrenching expression. He didn't care about what Song Mingjie would feel when he heard it, and Su Yalan would be so stupid that she told him this.
"What are all the things you think about in your head? Your dad is not like you!" Su Yalan immediately reached out and knocked his head, and blamed him softly. But she was a little moved in her heart. Song Yi was right. Men become bad when they have money. She has heard many such things from others. Even acquaintances around her have several cases. After becoming rich, she became arrogant and even her private life became chaotic.
Song Yi didn't care at all, but said, "I believe in my dad, but I'm prepared for it! Once this person becomes famous, countless people will come to him automatically..."
Without Song Yi saying too much, Su Yalan also understood what he meant, but she still felt uncomfortable when she heard it. Seeing that Song Yi was young, she seemed very clear about these things, so she said to Song Yi, "You know very clearly! I don't know if your father hears this..."
Song Yi smiled and said, "Then I'm dead. I won't say that right! Mom should think about it carefully."
"I can do it!" Su Yalan naturally had to be cautious about such things, "You little guy, should you handle Su Mei's affairs first! Otherwise, I wouldn't let you go, let alone Su Mei's parents!"
Song Yi nodded and said, "There are too many people needed in the early stages of the company's development, and he is worried that he can't find a suitable candidate. How could he let someone like Su Mei go?"
