Chapter 622 Is it expensive?
What’s more sad than watching your beloved fall slowly but can’t do anything?
This unspeakable pain is like countless small insects biting Lu Zi'an's heart.
What exactly is wrong? Why does the glaze crack?
If it is due to temperature, why doesn’t the cracks occur at the beginning?
If it is not for the temperature, why does such a change occur after leaving the kiln?
...
Many questions circled back and forth in Lu Zi'an's mind.
Compared with what everyone is worried about, he will be sad, the reason for this result is more important.
Lu Zi calmed down and walked forward slowly.
"Actually..." A master glanced at the teapot that was still bursting constantly and said hesitantly: "There is a special variety of Jun porcelain, which is famous for its cracks."
"Ice crack?" Lu Zian had naturally heard of it. He looked down and looked carefully: "Well, there is also a feeling of ice cracks. The texture is so cracked that it is quite beautiful."
The ice cracks of Jun porcelain are generally more obvious in blue glaze (including moon white), yellow glaze, and monochrome glaze.
The teapot in front of you, the moon-white pot, the ice cracked patterns intertwined, full of charm.
Everyone couldn't help but feel a little hope: Could it be that this is really the legendary ice crack?
Unfortunately, Lu Zian's next sentence ruthlessly exposes all their expectations: "But although this is a bit similar, it is not an ice crack."
“How to say it?”
Regarding the opening of Jun porcelain, Lu Zian carefully checks the classics before resting these days, and knows very much about this.
"The opening of Jun porcelain is a completely different concept from cracks." Lu Zian reached out and stroked it gently. When he touched the originally smooth and flat pot, his fingertips would have a slight scratching feeling: "The biggest difference is that this crack."
It looks very similar to the one on the open, but this kind of crack is broken from the inside to the outside, layer by layer.
Although it is also beautiful, it hurts when touched. If you exert force, it will inevitably be cut.
"The opening of Jun porcelain is different." Lu Zian picked up the teapot that was still cracking and carefully observed the thin, interlaced patterns on it like fibrous roots: "It looks similar, but the real Jun porcelain crack looks like a crack, but it feels smooth when it touches."
The light shone on the body of the pot, and the hazy feeling that was uninterrupted instantly captured everyone's hearts.
How great would it be if this was really a film!
The cracks made Jun porcelain "live".
The real opening is the capillary of porcelain and the fresh life.
It is constantly extending and constantly opening, indicating that it is different every moment and changes quietly as time passes.
"In addition, it's this sound." Lu Zian held it in his ear and listened carefully to every cracking sound: "The real opening should be subtle. Only when the night is deep and the heart is as clear as water, can he hear this slight sound, like the wind chime on the eaves, like the sound of a zither, and more like a flower blooming."
Although he was unwilling to do so, he had to admit that he had let everyone down on his expectations.
It was easy to get from wood carving into jade carving. He also came into contact with cloisonne by lacquer art, but he never encountered too much setback.
The smooth journey brought him an illusion that he was invincible.
No one is omnipotent, and it is even more impossible to take shortcuts on the road of art.
After hearing what he said, everyone looked at each other and said in a tangled manner: "Then, Master Lu, do you mean this teapot is useless?"
Nine out of ten kilns failed to achieve success is indeed not a false reputation. This Jun porcelain is too difficult!
It’s harder than climbing to the sky, even Master Lu failed!
Unexpectedly, Lu Zi'an looked at the teapot carefully. Not only did he not feel sad, but a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips: "It's very good."
good?
"But then again, this moon white is really rare."
"The sky is green and white, and although... it's the first time I have seen this kiln transformation with my own eyes."
Everyone talked and tried hard to brew words of comfort.
One person calmly analyzed the pros and cons: "Although the teapot is cracked, it can also be regarded as a clear way for us. At least, it means that the general direction is still correct. There are both gradual kiln changes and ice cracks. If this bad influence can be eliminated, this is simply a perfect Jun porcelain!"
Lu Zian looked at him with appreciation and nodded: "Yes, so no guessing means anything. What we need is practice."
“What practice?”
Someone raised his hand: "Master Lu wants to continue the experiment? I have memorized the complete steps you have before to help you!"
Others also volunteered, and Lu Zian just smiled and shook his head: "First of all, it is necessary to find the reason why it cracks."
How to find it? Of course it is not a blind move.
Unlike what others thought they wanted to continue working immediately, Lu Zian did not take action rashly.
He carefully recorded all the changes in the teapot, and all the data of the kiln were recorded one by one.
He even recorded while recalling and recording all the time periods of the previous kiln burning.
He even put these data on the table for people to view.
It was obviously handwritten, but the lines were really like one stroke and one stroke to the bottom, and one stroke was drawn into a complete circle, without even any pause in the middle.
He seemed tireless, and only went to sleep for a while every day without any thoughts. He would immediately start working with inspiration.
During his busy time, things outside have gradually developed.
The biggest news recently is that Zou Kai released the engagement photos.
This news made Shen Mange feel very... terrible.
I was caught off guard, and there was no movement in advance.
When she contacted Qu Duoduo, she was also incredible: "Why are you? You just want to get engaged, and you don't give me any buffering time?"
Qu Duoduo was helpless when he talked about this: "This matter is a long story..."
"Then you just tell a long story."
"...Well, okay." Qu Duoduo said, slowly turning the ring in his hand, feeling a little distracted: "That day..."
After analyzing her inner feelings, Zou Kai "wanted to do something wrong to her (the original words of Mr. Qu)" and was later listed as the first person to be banned from the Qu family.
Zou Kai jumped up and down and did a lot of things one after another.
What stops Qu's mother, and works hard to accompany her to the supermarket to buy things, and what about talking about business with Qu Beibei, taking care of all the trivial matters.
Although he did not dare to confront Qu's father head-on, he had already secretly setbacks and all his allies were coaxed.
With the joining of these two allies, Zou Kai acted more conveniently. He always secretly took Qu Duoduo out for a date while his father was not at home.
As a result, once, Dad Qu met by chance and was so angry that he was so angry that he charged here, but the lair was taken away by someone!
When Dad Qu was angry, his mind quickly turned: Dodo is forbidden from going out!
Zou Kai thought again, this was not a solution. He thought about it and simply apologized for apologies.
First, he gave all kinds of communication tools, and then accompanied Qu's father to drink a Gu, and then repeatedly promised that he would be good to Dodo.
Finally, he coaxed Dad Qu to step back: "Then, if you can make Dodo agree, I will..."
"No problem!" Zou Kai jumped three feet high and said loudly on the spot: "I'll propose soon!"
Proposal?
Dad Qu and Mom Qu secretly exchanged a look: Impossible.
Dudo is very opposed to getting married too early. Even if he agrees to date Zou Kai now, it is impossible to agree to propose or something immediately. The engagement will definitely be a year or two later.
With this idea, they let Zou Kai call Dudo down.
Qu Duoduo looked at them and then Zou Kai, not understanding what happened: "What's wrong?"
"It's okay, uncles and aunts like me, they have forgiven me!" Zou Kai smiled happily: "By the way, Dudo, I want to ask you something."
Qu Duoduo looked at him vigilantly: "What's the matter?"
"Oh, why do you look at me like this? I won't harm you." Zou Kai pulled her little hand and said with a smile: "That's right, I'm a friend, I bought a ring, but he doesn't understand the market. He feels like he bought fakes. You are in this industry. I want to bring it to you."
Oh, that's what I said.
That's the reason, she is an expert! There may be problems with other things, but this is really OK!
Qu Duodou was also interested: "What's it like? Let's take a look."
Zou Kai lowered his head and touched it, and took out a jade ring with exquisite craftsmanship.
Judging from the quality and the carving, these are simply fine works!
This is amazing!
"Hey, is this expensive?" Zou Kai asked in a low voice.
What a joke!
This ring is definitely not cheap!
As soon as I touched this jade, I knew it was absolutely valuable, not to mention the carving work. Oh, this carving work feels like Master Lu’s style...
Qu Duoduo couldn't put down the ring and didn't raise his head: "It must be expensive!"
With a plop, Zou Kai knelt down on one knee: "Thank you, Dudo for giving me this opportunity, marry me, I will be nice to you for the rest of my life!"
Chapter completed!
