1 yuan, a foreigner, found a porcelain jar from a stall and sold it for 23 million yuan. What kind of porcelain jar is this?

A scholar in Chuqiu accidentally found something shaped like a horse with a hole in the back. He didn't know what it was, so he asked everywhere, but no one knew. At this time, a man who claimed to be man of great talent said that he knew. He said that the ancients had wine glasses in the shape of cows and elephants. This must be a horse-shaped wine glass. When people from Chu and Qiu heard this, they thought it was very reasonable. They took this cultural relic for wine and showed it to their friends when they were entertaining relatives and friends.

Once, people from Qiushan came to visit his house, and Chu Qiu literati took out his horse to drink. I didn't expect Qiushan people to be surprised. Chu Qiu literati didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so he asked Qiushan people why they made such a fuss. But Qiushan people said it was chamber pot!

You see, this is "catch a donkey as a horse to ride-you don't know the goods". People in China don't know anything about China, especially foreigners. During the war, many cultural relics in our country were lost overseas and bought by foreign buyers. Some cultural relics were bought without knowing their uses, such as the Dutch buyer Van Hemert who is going to talk about today.

In the 181s, Van Hemert was originally a Dutch navy, but later he was transferred to Beijing but still guarded the commander. He is very happy about this international business trip, because he has long fallen in love with Chinese porcelain. Since he came to Beijing, he has gone to the antique market to find porcelain when he has nothing to do.

as early as the Tang dynasty, porcelain was exported to overseas, from Asian neighbors such as Japan and India to European countries such as Spain and France. In the 18th century alone, more than 6 million pieces of China porcelain were exported to Europe. After a hard trip to Beijing, of course, Van Hemert will buy some porcelain to go home.

In p>1913, Van Hemert saw a porcelain in an ordinary stall. He thought it was very special and bought it back for 1 yuan. In fact, this porcelain bought by Van Hemert is called "Yuan Qinghua Guiguzi goes down the mountain to draw a pot". The pattern on the jar is "Guiguzi Mountain View".

Guiguzi, a native of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, was the originator of strategists. He was proficient in mathematics, astrology, art of war, etc., and he was a wizard. He also trained many students, such as Sun Bin, a military strategist, Su Qin, a diplomat, Zhang Yi, a strategist, and so on, which became famous figures in history. The design on the jar is that he was invited by Su Qin's younger brother, Su Dai, who is also a strategist, to come out of the mountain to rescue Sun Bin and Duguchen who were trapped by the State of Yan.

Although Van Hemert couldn't see the contents of the painting, he really liked it. After returning to Holland, he also took China with him. However, Van Hemert's daughter didn't know the goods, so she used this porcelain as a piggy bank. She once inspected the goods. Unexpectedly, the Dutch taster was even more ignorant and said, "This is worthless." Remember this sentence, you will be hit in the face later.

Van Hemert's family kept the porcelain they bought in the corner as a sundries jar for 92 years! Until 25, an auction house learned that Van Hemert had a blue-and-white porcelain and asked the descendants of Van Hemert to auction it. It doesn't matter if it's not auctioned. After an auction, Van Hemert's descendants learned that this porcelain was worth 15.688 million pounds, about 23 million RMB!

Although we don't know who will end up with the pot of Guiguzi, a blue-and-white flower, this is our cultural relic, which should be preserved by us in China. We hope that all the cultural relics lost overseas will have a day when the leaves fall to the roots and the iron ox will be the road.
