Chen Yang really couldn't understand why Boss Song paid such a high price to buy a Qing Dynasty imitation Xuande stove. You must know that in this era, if you can find a Xuande stove made in the Xuande year, the price will be much lower than this.
"Boss Song, logically speaking, if you pay this price, it's me who takes advantage," Chen Yang looked at Boss Song and said, "I shouldn't say more, but you paid such a high price to buy a Qing Dynasty imitation Xuande stove. , this is not cost-effective.”
Hearing what Chen Yang said, Boss Song smiled slightly and said, "Brother Chen, since you asked, I won't hide it from you."
"The Xuande furnace is the first bronze ware made of brass in the history of our country. Now people say that when Xuande was in power, because foreign countries paid tribute to a large amount of brass, Emperor Xuande asked craftsmen to use brass to cast the Xuande furnace, and It is refined by adding a large amount of gold, silver and other precious metals into it.”
Chen Yang nodded after hearing this. This is the most official statement and it is also supported by historical research. "It is indeed true. This is also the primary reason why only more than 3,000 Xuande furnaces were cast that year."
"Brother Chen, this is just the official statement." Boss Song rarely lit a cigarette and handed one to Chen Yang.
"I have heard another story. When Xuande was in power, it was said that the Buddhist hall in the palace caught fire, and the gold, silver, and bronze statues were all mixed into liquid."
"At that time, Emperor Xuande asked his craftsmen how to use it. The craftsmen had no way to extract the gold and silver from the liquid. If they wanted to avoid wasting these materials, they could refine them into incense burners."
Having said this, Boss Song coughed and said, "Later, the minister reminded me that maybe this is God's will. Otherwise, how could the Buddhist temple be on such a big fire?"
"So Xuande came down to cast the Xuande furnace and supervised it himself. The copper was refined with twelve fires into copper bars, and then the copper bars were melted with red fire and placed on a sieve made of steel. The pure ones are used to make Xuande furnaces, and the rest are cast into other utensils."
Chen Yang blew out a smoke ring, "I've heard this statement too. I personally think it's a bit exaggerated. Boss Song, think about it, what kind of fire must be burned to melt all the brass, gold, silver, etc. Together? Obviously this statement is too false."
Chen Yang waved his hand, indicating that this statement was not credible.
Boss Song smiled slightly, "Brother Chen, actually I don't believe it either, but have you ever thought about it. The Xuande furnace has five colors: Buddhist scripture paper, chestnut shell, eggplant skin, Tangli and brown. Among them, the color of Buddhist scripture paper is the first-class. Why? Is the Buddhist scripture paper first-rate?"
"Also, the Xuande furnace only cast 3,000 pieces. Nowadays, there are more
