Chapter 125 On-site Teaching

What made Yang Jing and Wang Jiazan a little stunned was that there were so many people who came with Cai Yi. There were about 30 people in the old and young, and they filled the house that was not big, so there were still people who didn't squeeze in.

"I'm so sorry. When Lao Lu saw that I wanted to install that special solvent, he asked me to get a clear idea of ​​everything. As a result, when I told him about your bottle, he said everything about it. As a result, everyone in the yard was fine..." Cai Yi whispered to Yang Jing while fiddling with the bottles and jars.

Of course Yang Jing would not say anything, Wang Jiazan asked in a low voice with a smile: "Uncle Cai, are your staff here idle all day long?"

"Nonsense!" Cai Yi glared at him, then put his voice to the smallest and said: "You can understand it yourself. Don't make noise when you go out!"

Wang Jiazan and Yang Jing looked at each other and smiled silently.

The Palace Museum is very large and has many functional departments. After all, it is the largest museum in the country, a serious deputy ministerial-level unit, and the directors of the museum usually serve as the deputy minister of the department. The level is quite high.

Just like Cai Yi, although he is the director of the Ancient Porcelain Research Institute, he is a serious senior official at the department level. However, most of the staff in the museum are staffed by public servants rather than civil servants.

There are many employees in the museum. There are hundreds of people who can contact tourists alone, not to mention more insiders like Cai Yi who specializes in researching and restoring cultural relics. There are more than 100 experts in the museum who are in charge of warehouse keys, business departments responsible for curating, and people from credit, education, journals, service centers and other departments, plus those students led by experts, there are more people.

It seems that those who come to Cai Yi’s office now are all experts from the Institute and graduate or doctoral students they teach. When these people heard that there were specialized in forgery, Qianlong blue and white porcelain, they all came over to see how the porcelain was forged, and wanted to see how Director Cai removed the disguise of the porcelain.

This situation is extremely rare even in the Palace Museum, and it is enough to let Director Cai do it himself, which is enough to show that this porcelain is of very high grade.

Even if Cai Yi looks at the entire Palace Museum, he is one of the best in ancient porcelain. There are not many porcelains that can allow him to take action personally.

After fiddling with her for a while, Cai Yi said to Yang Jing: "Yang Zi, this situation is very rare even in our museum today. I want to take this opportunity to explain it to those students. The things passed down by our ancestors need them to continue to pass on. The more they know this knowledge, the better."

Yang Jing nodded with a smile and said, "Uncle Cai, just look at making a decision. In fact, I also hope that your students can learn more from you."

Hearing Yang Jing's agreement, Cai Yi smiled, stood up, clapped his hands and said loudly: "Everyone, yesterday I had the honor to see a fake Qianlong blue and white porcelain in the hands of a junior. This porcelain itself is indeed a genuine product with a wide open door, but it was faked in a certain turbulent era, with the purpose of protecting this precious blue and white porcelain. I saw such porcelain more than 20 years ago..."

Cai Yi immediately explained the story of the Qianlong tea powder glaze Ruyi ears olive bottle he encountered when he went to Jinling to attend the ancient porcelain exchange meeting in 1994 to these people in the house. Even if it was placed in the circle of experts, it was a grand event. Although several ancient porcelain experts in the house had heard of this, they had never experienced it personally. As for those students, they had never even heard of it.

"Now, this Qianlong blue and white five-bat holding longevity ear bottle is almost the same as the Qianlong tea powder glaze Ruyi ear olive bottle that was back then. You can take this opportunity to observe and learn. Xiao Liu, come and take a look at this bottle first. Xiao Zhao, Xiao Wu, Xiao Li, and you guys, all look at this bottle together. But you have to tell the characteristics of this bottle."

Hearing Cai Yi's words, a young man about twenty-seven or eight years old wearing black frameless glasses stood up, put on his gloves, picked up the bottle and looked carefully, and several other young men also came up.

In fact, Cai Yi's on-site teaching method is a bit bad. After all, he has already told the authenticity of the bottle, so the students will naturally have a bias.

But there is nothing we can do about this. Who made Cai Yi’s colleague talk about this in advance?

However, with this bottle, these students can witness with their own eyes how the authentic blue and white porcelain with a wide open door was forged and how it was undisguised. This is also a rare learning experience for these students.

These students are also people with good food. After all, if you can learn from these experts, their own antique identification and repair level will definitely be high, otherwise these experts will not take them.

This kind of on-site learning lasted almost two hours, and more than 20 students read and talked about the bottle one by one, and the time it took was naturally not short.

The big gathering at the Institute of Ancient Porcelain in the Middle even attracted the attention of the dean. The largest boss of the Palace Museum happened to be in the museum today. After hearing about the on-site teaching activities here, he rushed over to observe it.

However, the big boss came and left quietly, and before leaving, he left with a smile on his face.

When the boss left, the atmosphere on the scene became more active. In this case, Cai Yi began to teach everyone on the scene how to mix that solvent. Such counterfeiting techniques are actually a skill that these ancient porcelain experts and future ancient porcelain experts should master. As the saying goes, more skills do not suppress one's body, learn more things, and it is beneficial to anyone.

To prepare that solvent, a total of seven or eight different raw materials were needed. After the solvent was prepared, Cai Yi put the Qianlong Blue and White Five Bats in front of everyone and put the longevity ear bottle into the basin containing the solvent, so that the solvent soaked the entire bottle.

After soaking for about twenty minutes, Cai Yi took out the bottle with gloves. Before he could wipe it with a dry cloth, he could see with his naked eyes that there were many oily things on the surface of the bottle slowly dripping down the surface of the bottle.

When Cai Yi wiped the inside and outside of the bottle with a clean cloth, a radiant Qianlong blue and white porcelain immediately appeared in front of everyone.
