    When Zhou Xia arrived at Zhu Xiufang's house, as expected, Fang Xue was also there, and when he knocked on the door.  It was Fang Xue who opened the door.  Zhou Xia greeted her, and Fang Xue also explained that she helped Professor Zhu Xiufang borrow the painting, and when the painting was returned, she had to be present as a witness.

    Zhou Xia smiled, he didn¡¯t particularly mind this.

    But Fang Xue is more cautious in doing things and insists that this is the best way.  Not only that, she also asked Zhou Xia to carefully check the painting later to see if it was his original one.

    Although she and Zhou Xia both felt that it was impossible for Zhu Xiufang and the others to do anything in this matter.  But there are some things that are uncertain, and it is best for Zhou Xia to clarify them in person. After all, they are worth tens of millions.

    Fang Xue didn¡¯t want Zhou Xia to resent her for the rest of her life if something went wrong.

    Her attitude moved Zhou Xia a little. The fact that she could not shy away from her relationship with Zhu Xiufang and say such words proved that she was quite simple and kind-hearted in her heart.

    Since she said this, Zhou Xia nodded and agreed. She also demanded to be responsible for her own behavior of borrowing paintings. If Zhou Xia remained indifferent, he would not have failed her.

    Zhu Xiufang and Fang Rujian were both at home. Before Zhou Xia came, they had prepared the paintings, but they had not packed them.

    After the meeting, they exchanged polite words for a while. Zhu Xiufang and Fang Rujian were relatively calm and asked Zhou Xia to check the painting carefully. They didn't have any bad intentions, but they didn't want to cause any awkwardness in it.  After all, Zhou Xia had given them great respect and lent them such a precious painting for such a long period of time to study.

    Zhou Xia said that he absolutely trusted them, but Zhu Xiufang still married like this, and said that it was worth tens of millions, and it would be better for him to confirm it in person.

    Fang Rujian also interjected, saying that in the antique collection shop, it was not uncommon for borrowed items to be returned with high imitations, and Zhou Xia should be more careful.  He could also see that Zhou Xia had a more generous temperament and would inevitably borrow some things. If someone lost the bag, he would be the one who would suffer.  They were setting an example and reminding him to pay attention to safety.

    Zhou Xia expressed that he had been taught a lesson, so he checked the "Cuckoo Crying with Blood" they returned and found that it was indeed his original painting.  In the hands of a master, it is not particularly difficult to copy such a painting in a few days.  But it would not be easy to hide it from Zhou Xia.  Zhou Xia only needs to use the system to identify it and confirm that it is Jie Nian's work.

    After Zhou Xia confirmed it, he put the painting away and installed it. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, he planned to take it directly to the company for safekeeping later, which would be more secure than keeping it himself.

    After the delivery was completed, Fang Xue, Zhu Xiufang and the others breathed a sigh of relief and asked him about the newly received porcelain tiles.

    Zhou Xia briefly talked about the experience of collecting them, and then took out the porcelain pieces packaged in a small box from her backpack and placed them on the table in front of her, asking them to make an appraisal.

    After Zhu Xiufang and Fang Rujian got the news, they never forgot about it. Anyone who loves traditional culture would have the same reaction as them.

    Now, with the thing right in front of them, they were naturally very excited.

    But at this time, they still asked Fang Xue to open it first.

    When this girl heard that the porcelain pieces Zhou Xia received might be Chai porcelain, her first reaction was doubt. After all, Chai porcelain is a rare product that can only be found in a thousand years. Is Zhou Xia's luck really so good that such good things can be obtained?  Found by him.  Then, she thought about how shocking it would be if it were genuine Chai porcelain.

    This is not a matter for Zhou Xia alone, it is a major event for the entire Chinese antique collecting community, and it is not an exaggeration to say it is even a major event for the world.

    You should know that in addition to China, Western countries also have considerable research on Chinese porcelain.  Many of the porcelains lost overseas, even the porcelains that can be considered important, are mostly in the hands of large private collectors in Western countries such as the United Kingdom and the United States, or in their museums.

    In addition, I have to mention Japan. Their love for porcelain is unparalleled, and the number of porcelain they have collected through various means is quite large.

    And the firewood kiln is what they are trying to find.  Previously, Japanese countermeasures Ruyun suggested that the blue lily vase in their hands was Chai Kiln porcelain that had been lost for thousands of years.

    According to them, about noon ago, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty of China gave this blue lily vase to the Japanese Muromachi Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the general in the cartoon Ikkyu Brother.  Later, the blue lily vase was passed down from generation to generation by the Japanese ancient pen family.

     The Japanese want to seize the reputation of this wood kiln, which also shows from one side that the status of wood kiln in the history of porcelain is indeed very important, and its influence and appeal abroad cannot be underestimated.

    It is precisely because of understanding these situations that everyone can understand Fang Xue¡¯s current excitement and feel deeply sorry for her.

    Only Zhou Xia, who had seen the porcelain tiles, appeared much calmer and more steady.

    Fang Xue carefully opened the box and took out the porcelain pieces inside.

    Zhu Xiufang and Fang Rujian's eyes also kept falling on the porcelain piece in Fang Xue's hand.

    For experienced connoisseurs like them, the first impression of porcelain is particularly important. Generally speaking, if it is eliminated at first glance, it is basically not worth looking at.  At the very least, it must be a high-quality imitation to be worthy of their attention.

    Of course, before this, Zhu Xiufang and Fang Rujian were still doubtful about whether Zhou Xia really received the Chai Kiln porcelain pieces.

    But after seeing this piece of porcelain, their thoughts immediately changed, and they immediately felt that it might really be a wood kiln.  They have never seen such beautiful porcelain with characteristics of Chai porcelain in other kiln entrances.

    Although they are not specialized in appraising porcelain, they have been in the industry for so many years and have seen quite a few porcelains. They can still distinguish between good and bad porcelain, true and false, quite clearly.

    Zhu Xiufang immediately sighed and said, "Yesterday I thought Professor Zhao Xiangbo and the others were joking! Now it seems that this matter is indeed promising. If they can research more concrete evidence, then the entire history of porcelain may be  It¡¯s time to rewrite it. Zhou Xia, you did a pretty good job. Such a good thing is worth spending no matter how much money you spend."

    "More compliments from Professor Zhu, but whether this piece of porcelain is Chai porcelain needs to be carefully identified by everyone. Only after multiple verifications can we draw a conclusion." Zhou Xia replied very modestly.

    Zhu Xiufang nodded, quite satisfied with his attitude. At least, Zhou Xia was not carried away, like those who got carried away and became arrogant.  To put it bluntly, even if Zhou Xia's attitude is just pretending, it is still a good thing worthy of recognition.

    After receiving the news from Zhu Xiufang last night, Fang Xue also did a surprise homework on the firewood kiln. When she got started, she went straight to the firewood kiln standards for appraisal.  She also discovered that the piece of porcelain brought by Zhou Xia was simply the standard piece of Chai porcelain!

    The various characteristics of Chai porcelain are quite consistent with this porcelain piece, especially it combines the advantages of the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty. But she can clearly see that this porcelain piece is not an imitation of the five famous kilns, but is unique.  , it is most correct to say that famous kilns of the Five Dynasties imitated it.  She had no doubt that it was a modern imitation, and that Zhou Xia deliberately made it to deceive the public.

    You must know that even if a fake is made to look like the real thing, the fake is just a fake and can never be real.  Even if no one can tell it is a fake within a short period of time, there is no way that fakes can deceive everyone forever. One day, the truth will come to light.

    Furthermore, as far as Fang Xue knows, the technology of modern imitations simply cannot meet such craftsmanship standards.

    Among the five famous kilns in the Song Dynasty, Ru Guange Junding can imitate the porcelain at the entrance of a kiln to its original level. That is quite rare. Even the best ones on the market can't do it.  What's more, it is a porcelain piece that combines the advantages of Ru kiln, Ge kiln and Jun kiln.  If it can be imitated, it would be something to be thankful for. After all, we cannot always live in the past. The new porcelain firing technology is worth celebrating.

    After a brief appraisal, Fang Xue put the porcelain pieces back and asked Zhu Xiufang and the others to start the appraisal.  She herself started an academic discussion with Zhou Xia next to her.

    She also knew that Zhou Xia's attainments in porcelain were far superior to hers. Even in the field of calligraphy, painting and calligraphy, which she was good at, Zhou Xia was no match for him.  Therefore, Fang Xue's attitude was relatively low. It was better to say that she wanted to hear more about Zhou Xia's opinions.

    Zhou Xia himself has done research on this, and yesterday, he gained a lot of knowledge from Zhao Xiangbo and Liu Yuanshan, so he is already confident.  Speaking of which, it's easy to do, and it doesn't take much effort at all.

    ¡°Moreover, Zhou Xia is more confident than several old men. This naturally stems from his magical archaeological identification system, which confirms that this porcelain piece was fired during the reign of Chai Rong of the Fifth Dynasty.

    Apart from the wood kiln, Zhou Xia could not imagine any other kiln at that time that could produce such beautiful porcelain.

    The main thing Fang Xue wants to ask is the age of this piece of porcelain.

    In fact, she is not the only oneAfter carefully appreciating it, Fang Rujian and Zhu Xiufang also had some ideas about the age of the porcelain pieces.

    In their opinion, since the Song Dynasty, there have been quite a lot of porcelain imitations of the five famous kilns fired in the past dynasties, but so far, they have not found any imitations that can surpass the level of this fast porcelain piece.

    This means that the firing date of this piece of porcelain should be before the Song Dynasty.

    Zhou Xia also expressed his own conclusion without hesitation. He believed that this porcelain piece was a work from the late Tang Dynasty and Five Dynasties period.
