Not surprisingly, Master Zhu was really taken aback by the price offered by Yang Jing, of course, the old man also simply rejected the price offered by Yang Jing, although the old man knew that this was Yang Jing's kindness, but the old man still refused very simply."
No, the price you gave is too high, I can't sell it to you at such a price, my pot is not worth so much money Xiao Yang, you don't have to talk to me, if you insist on buying at this price, don't blame the old man, I broke my promise and didn't sell it to you."
It's just been a few years since this good day, my old man doesn't want to make a mistake because of this" As soon as the old man said this, Yang Jing realized that he didn't seem to be thinking enough about it, and he seemed to have forgotten how huge the impact of the chaotic ten years on these elderly masters was, and in 1982, people, especially the elderly, have not completely changed their thinking, and deep down they still have a huge fear of that "buzzing" era, for fear that the wind will change and be knocked down again.The price of a pot of 3,000 yuan prescribed by Yang Jing, let alone put it in 30 years, even if it is placed in ten years, it is very low, but in this era, the price of this 3,000 yuan pot is undoubtedly poison, and whoever eats it will die.Seeing Yang Jing's entangled look, the old man said happily: "Xiao Yang, old man, I thank you for looking up to my craftsmanship so much, but the price you gave is too high, my old man really doesn't dare to accept it."
In this way, since you want to buy my pot, I'm not hypocritical, don't I have ten pots here?
If you want, you can take all the 3,000 dollars!
”Subsequently, the old man seemed to feel that the price he opened seemed to be a bit high, and he hesitated for a moment and explained: "Xiao Yang, in fact, I don't feel at ease if I take the 3,000 yuan."
In this way, I will change two sets of pots for you, one is a five-head cover, and the other is a ten-head set, what do you think?
”Yang Jing shook his head slightly, knowing that he couldn't do it even if he wanted to be a good person today, but he was not a grinder, since the old man said so, he simply agreed.Seeing that Yang Jing agreed, a smile appeared on the old man's wrinkled face, "Come on, Xiao Yang, I'll find out the pot that can be sold for you."
Alas, most of these pots have been saved little by little by me over the years, and it is really a bit reluctant to sell them to you all at once.But my old man doesn't have a few years to live, if these things follow me, they will be buried in the soil with me in the end, you like these pots so much, these pots can also have a good owner with you" "Well, I remember this set of five-headed round three friends pot I remember or I made it in 1953, almost thirty years" "This cloud dragon pot is a pot I made in 67 years, I remember that there was an old friend who wanted a cloud dragon pot at that time, but I made it for him, but he was knocked down by a group of red imps Alas, everyone is gone, This pot was not given away, so it was stayed" "This golden bell pot was made by me in 66" "Well, this bowl of plum pot was made in the summer of my 70s, I remember very clearly, it rained here that summer, and the water of the Lihe River next door almost washed up the embankment" The old man muttered while slowly taking down eight purple clay pots, two teacups and two cup holders from the four wooden shelves, his expression was full of memories and reluctance.It can be seen that the old man is really very affectionate towards these pots, these pots are like his children, they are all made by him little by little, and now they belong to others, and the old man is naturally a little uncomfortable.Yang Jing didn't want to see it.For an old man, these pots he made when he was young or in his prime, the value or something is put aside first, and all the memories of the old man's life are entrusted, "Well, I felt a little dissatisfied with these two pots when I made them, forget it, I won't give it to you, I will use these two pots to exchange two sets of pots for you."
Well, this is good, this is a five-headed cloud dragon pot I made in 55, this is a set of ten squirrel grape pots I made in 63, Xiao Yang, these are all given to you, what do you think?
”Yang Jing sneered for a moment, the hesitation on his face flashed, and said, "Master Zhu, or I don't want this pot?"
I feel like if I bought these pots, it would be like ripping out the flesh of your heart, how could I feel a deep sense of guilt?
”"Hahahaha" the old man laughed, wiping his hands with a cloth and said, "You little guy is weird and interesting."
Xiao Yang, I know what you think, but you don't have to worry that this is ripping out my heart.I made these pots in my early years, and although they hold a lot of memories for me, I haven't gotten to that point yet.When this person is old, he loves to think about the past, and he loves to mumble a few words, don't be surprised.Xiao Yang, just these pots, all of them were sold to you.Let's talk about 3,000 yuan, you can't miss me" The old man said and squeezed his eyes naughtily, just like the old naughty boy, Yang Jing was also amused.Yang Jing leaned over and carefully looked at these exquisite purple clay pots.I have to say that the master is the master, even if the style is similar to the style of those purple clay pots seen in later generations, but the charm in it is far from being comparable to those purple clay pots in later generations.If these purple clay pots are compared to beauties, then those pots in later generations can be regarded as Internet celebrities at most, and these pots made by the old man himself are peerless beauties of the level of Xi Shi and Diao Chan.Although they are all two eyes, one nose, one mouth and two ears, the old man puts these pots here, so that people can feel the peerless demeanor of the city and the country that only peerless beauties can have!
What is Master?
This is the master!
The undisputed master!
To paraphrase a modern Internet phrase, the master's work is so hanging!
Yang Jing is also very satisfied with the pots given by the old man, not to mention the Yunlong pot, it is the old man's famous stunt.When everyone else was still playing with the fish dragon pot, the old man had already made the cloud dragon pot.As for the round Sanyou pot, that is, the round pine, bamboo and plum pot, it is also the first design that belongs to this master.The bamboo purple clay pot made by Master Zhu Kexin is second to none in the entire circle, and no one can compare with it.He comprehended the layout of painting from the ancient painting score "Gao Song Bamboo Spectrum", experienced the wonder of plastic bamboo from the discourse of calligraphers and painters, tasted the best structure from the production of purple sand pottery flowers, and applied the skill of mud sticking.The bamboo pot made by his old man comes in many forms and has endless variations.The round Sanyou pot in front of me has a bamboo knot in the middle of the body, which is stable and generous; The spout is in the shape of "zigzag" and three bends, and the forehead is flat and respectful, and this spout shape is the unique style of the first spout shape of the Republic of China.The spout is sprinkled with a branch of bamboo, which is refreshing and beautiful, bent into a handful from bottom to top, strong and powerful; The cover is embedded in the micro dome, plump and delicate, molded into a tender bamboo, and the bamboo leaves are pasted on both sides, which is symmetrical and charming.The whole pot is made of bamboo, with different angles, which is quite dynamic.Yang Jing knows very well that the original stamp of the famous pot of Wandao Zisha is based on this shape of the pot!
And the most important thing is that this pot is not a single pot yet, but a five-head cover!
It was not one of the two sets of pots that the old man said was exchanged for Yang Jing alone, but the old man promised to sell them to Yang Jing at the beginning.The so-called five-hood consists of a total of five pieces.That is, one pot, two cups, two supports, a total of five pieces.If this five-head cover is put up for auction in the future, five million is just the starting price!
Among the two sets of pots that the old man exchanged for Yang Jing, one of them is five-headed, which is a set of five-head Yunlong pots, and its workmanship and value are definitely not under this set of Yuansanyou pots.Counting the previous single pot of the Cloud Dragon Pot, Yang Jing can buy Master Zhu's two Cloud Dragon Pots at once!
As for the set of ten-headed squirrel grape pots that the old man replaced, the value was even higher.The purple clay pot works of the masters are naturally the higher the number of heads, the higher the value, just like the set of the most valuable pots auctioned at the purple sand pot auction in later generations, which is a set of ten squirrel grape pots made by Master Gu Jingzhou himself, which was directly auctioned for a high price of 92 million.In later generations, I have never heard of a ten-headed squirrel grape pot made by Master Zhu at auction, but this does not mean that Master Zhu's works are not valuable.It's like this set of squirrel grape pots in front of you, with such exquisite workmanship, its value may not be as good as Master Gu Jingzhou's works, but it definitely starts at eight figures!
This ten-headed squirrel grape pot is the "flower goods" in the purple clay pot.The so-called flower goods are teapots that are designed into bionic images by means of relief and semi-relief techniques that exist in nature, and this kind of teapot is called "flower goods" in the industry.This purple squirrel grape pot is based on the theme of grape branches, squirrels and tree stumps in nature, and integrates them into the art of purple sand.The body of the pot adopts the classic "stump" shape, and the thick body of the pot gives people a sense of solidity; On the side that resembles a stump, another slender branch is cut off and twisted into a spiral shape to serve as a handle; The shape of the spout and knob is also cut off from a small branch, or slowly bent into a spout, or naturally horizontal to support the knob.The grape leaves on the lid of the pot echo the grape leaves close to the body of the pot, and the cute squirrels look at it from a high place, thus highlighting the natural interest of the whole pot, which is lifelike and vibrant.Under the exquisite craftsmanship of Master Zhu, this pot is full of elegance and generosity, and is very natural and interesting, and it is definitely a rare masterpiece of Master Zhu!
There is also a teapot that is smaller than the teapot but larger than the teacup.The shape of the teapot is similar to that of the teapot, except that the teapot has two handles.This pot and the teapot, together with four quaint teacups and four saucers, make up this set of ten squirrel grape pots.
