Chapter 751 Another world
Two large pots of Yuan blue and white characters, one of the Ming Hongwu official kilns, and the blue and white flowers and flower patterns bowls, plus this set of four Chenghua Doucai chicken jar cups, Yang Jing was almost happy to die.
Just now I was thinking about saying that I had a little less porcelain collection, but so much came at once.
Four boxes were opened in a row, all of which were national treasures. A box of golden Buddha statues. Although they were Khmer gold Buddha statues, they were all the best. A box of hand-copied Buddhist scriptures in the Ming Dynasty plus an imperial edict from Emperor Hongwu. Such a neat hand-copied Buddhist scriptures is definitely extremely rare in modern times. As for the last two boxes, they were all made of Ming Dynasty porcelain, and there were three sets of extremely precious treasures.
If calculated according to the classification of antiques by the holy ring, the imperial edict and these three sets of porcelain alone would at least be second-grade treasures. Take them out and iron-type national treasure-level cultural relics!
The four-piece box that had been opened alone made Yang Jing extremely excited. So what about the three-piece box left next? Are there any unexpected treasures inside?
Yang Jing did not doubt this. According to the treasures in the first four boxes, even if there is a gap between the treasures in the back three boxes, it is probably not much different.
These treasures were obviously carefully selected by the Japanese royal family. It can be seen from the outer packaging alone that these treasures were probably intended to be given to the Japanese Emperor. Unexpectedly, their emperor allowed the American two mushroom bullets to be settled directly. The surrender was so fast that the batch of treasures could not be transported to Japan and had to stay here.
Moreover, Yang Jing could also see that from the classification of the treasures in these four boxes, the person who handled these treasures at that time must have been done by a Japanese man who was very proficient in Chinese antique culture, otherwise the treasures in these boxes would not have been sorted out so carefully.
Yang Jing guessed that if he had replaced himself with the Japanese who had dealt with these treasures back then, he might have sorted out these treasures in this way.
However, no matter how Japan deals with this batch of treasures back then, it’s all cheaper for me now!
Yang Jing thought happily, and was about to open the fifth box to see what good things were inside, but the princess and the others walked in with a smile, and Yang Jing had to pause the activity at hand.
"Are you back?"
"Yeah, I'm back!" The princess rushed over happily, lay down on the big bed, kicked her shoes, and happily swayed around with her calves.
"It seems like I'm having fun."
"It's better! This city doesn't look good during the day, but there are quite a lot of things to play at night, and it's much cooler at night and more tourists. As there are so many people, it's lively, and all kinds of delicious snacks appear in the streets and alleys. Oh my God, my stomach is full, and I have to start dieting tomorrow..." When it comes to eating, beauty is always happy and painful, and as a man, there is nothing wrong with this.
"Oh, Yang Jing, it's a pity that you didn't go out with you. The nights in this city are really good. No wonder this city is a famous tourist city in the Philippines. Why don't we stay for another day tomorrow and we go out for a walk tomorrow night?"
"Still walking around?" Yang Jing looked at the girl's belly with a smile, "If you go back, you will probably have to go on a diet for half a month after you go back."
"Stinky Yang Jing, who can pick up any pot without opening..."
Yang Jing smiled and endured his wife's two "Tianma Meteor Pink Fist", "I said, "My wife, we can't stay tomorrow. We have to go back to San Fernando. I guess Morris and the others have prepared almost now. Let's dig out the treasures buried underground in the Catholic Church as soon as possible."
Hearing Yang Jing's words, the princess nodded and said, "When I dig the tunnel, I have to dig two shovels!"
"Okay, okay, let alone digging two shovels, I have no objection to digging all the tunnels, which saves me even more..."
"I dug through the tunnel, but the treasure inside will not belong to you!" Gege said excitedly, "Isn't it just an authentic tunnel? Now that technology is so advanced, it's OK to dig with a machine." As he said that, Gege sat up excitedly, lay on Yang Jing's back and continued, "Does my classmate Wu Xiaoli of Changmei know?"
Yang Jing nodded. This was a good sister that the princess made during her doctoral degree at the Central American Academy of Sciences. Yang Jing had met her several times and had a good impression of her.
"Xiaoli's family is a mechanical worker. She told me that his company has a small horizontal hole digger, which is not big and motor-driven, and has very little noise. If it is in a pure soil environment, the hole digging speed is very fast and can be dug dozens of meters a day. If you agree to let me dig, I will call the country tonight and ask them to airlift a set of equipment tomorrow. Hehe, how about it?"
Yang Jing was speechless.
Does my mother-in-law know this wife is so smart?
The two of them were chatting and chatting, and the princess got sleepy. She went to the bathroom to take a shower, tied her head on the bed and fell asleep. It seemed that shopping was quite exhausting.
Seeing his wife fall asleep, Yang Jing also lay on the bed, and then continued to sink his consciousness into the space.
There were three large iron boxes in the space that were not opened. Yang Jing picked one casually, but it was still a big surprise after opening it.
There are still porcelain in this box, but there are all great things in this box. Yang Jing found a total of eight great things in it.
These eight large instruments have different shapes, but they are all excellent Ming Dynasty porcelain preserved.
The porcelain in this box is also placed in two layers. There are four extremely exquisite bottles on the top layer, one of which is the Yongle blue and white double-eared gourd-style flat bottle.
This bottle is a gourd-shaped, with a closed mouth, a tied neck, a round flat belly, and a shallow ring foot. There are two ears in the middle part of the gourd. The upper part of the bottle is decorated with tangled branches and flowers on both sides of the lower abdomen, and a round flower is surrounded by flowers and leaves. The bottom pattern is the four-character seal script style "Made in Yongle Nian".
Yang Jing knew that this blue and white double-eared gourd-style flat bottle with less than a different style was also fired during the Yongle period, but that bottle did not have a base model.
But this bottle has a base model, and its value immediately increased by more than ten times!
You should know that the official kiln porcelain with the base style in the Yongle period was extremely rare in modern times, and each piece was a national treasure-level porcelain. This blue and white double-eared gourd-style flat bottle with the base style also filled the gap in collections of modern utensils.
The second bottle is a blue and white celestial ball bottle from the Xuande period, with the base model of "made in the Daming Xuande period" six-character two-line regular script model. This bottle is also a rare masterpiece.
As for the third and fourth bottles, it was a bit beyond Yang Jing's expectations. These two bottles are both celestial ball bottles, and they are almost the same at first glance. When Yang Jing saw this pair of celestial ball bottles, he wondered when the Langyao Red Tian Ball Bottle was released in the Yongxuan era?
Langyao red is a type of copper-red glaze. This copper-red glaze was founded during the Yongxuan period of the Ming Dynasty. However, the copper-red glaze in the Ming Dynasty was called "Gem Red Glaze". The color was very different from that in later generations. And this pair of Langyao red celestial ball bottles were so good that it was almost impossible in the Ming Dynasty.
As a result, when Yang Jing saw the basics, he realized that he had fallen into a misunderstanding of thinking.
All the porcelains in front came from the Ming Dynasty, so Yang Jing also thought that the porcelain in this box was also from the Ming Dynasty porcelain, but after looking at the basics, he found that this pair of Langyao Red Sky Ball bottles were actually produced in the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty.
Obviously, the porcelain in this batch of treasures is not only limited to the Ming Dynasty, but also from the Qing Dynasty.
This pair of Langyao Red Sky Ball Bottles is the Langyao Red Sky Ball Bottles from the Yongzheng period.
Another pair of bottles is paired with this set of porcelain. This set of porcelain is of great value. Once it is complete, the price will definitely be rolling upwards!
Another good pair!
There were four large instruments on the upper layer of this box, all of which were bottles. When Yang Jing opened the thatch used for intervals in the middle, the four large instruments below appeared in front of Yang Jing again.
The following four porcelains are all big guys, three of which are also bottles, one is the Qianlong Light Yellow Colored Long-Need Gourd Bottle. This bottle is smaller than the bottle collected by Ms. Zhang Yongzhen, a collector of Hong Kong Island, but it is also of great value. You should know that when Ms. Zhang Yongzhen took the Qianlong Light Yellow Colored Long-Need Gourd Bottle in 2010, it cost a sky-high price of HK$252 million!
Although this bottle is not as big as the one collected by Ms. Zhang Yongzhen, it is not small in size. It is definitely a national treasure-level bottle when taken out.
The other two bottles are also a pair, which are Kangxi enamel colored bottles.
Enamel colored cylinder bottles are a rare type of instrument. Enamel color began during the Kangxi period and flourished during the Yongqian period. However, enamel type rarely used cylinder bottles because cylinder bottles were popular in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties.
The cylinder bottle is also called the elephant leg bottle. The mouth of the instrument is relatively wide and slightly outward; the neck is straight, the shoulders are long abdomen; the bottom foot is an unglazed sand bottom.
This type of bottle was founded in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, but because the name of the bottle meant "the unification of the Qing Dynasty", it continued from Shunzhi until the Kangxi period and became one of the most popular objects at that time.
However, most of the barrel bottles in Shunkang were blue and white porcelain, and there were very few enamel bottles. There was a pair of enamel bottles here, which was simply too rare!
As for the fourth big pot, it is not a bottle, but a blue and white dragon jar produced in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty! The bottom diameter of this blue and white dragon jar is close to forty centimeters and the height is close to fifty centimeters. As for the upper diameter, it is about the same as the height, and it looks nearly half a meter.
This Jiaqing blue and white dragon jar alone occupies almost a quarter of the space in this box.
Just this big dragon jar is an extremely rare piece of national treasure blue and white porcelain, but it is not only this big dragon jar that surprises Yang Jing, because there is a different world in the belly of this big dragon jar...
Chapter completed!
