My identity as a collector was exposed by the village flower

358 The Treasure of the Town Store
"It seems that there are still some good things here." Xia Yu couldn't help but said.

Despite their bad reputation, they found real antiques one after another not long after they came in.

"Haha! There are more fake ones, and some of them are unqualified. Like this painting, the paper is all new. At least it is old. Have a look! Only the scroll is old."

Fang Xing pointed to a painting next to it, which turned out to be "Spring Dawn in the Han Palace" by Qiu Ying, a master painter of the Ming Dynasty.

Snack bar available!
The real "Han Palace Spring Dawn Picture" is now treasured in a museum on Taiwan Island!

"Spring Dawn of the Han Palace" is Qiu Yingping's proudest work. It is one of the top ten famous paintings handed down from generation to generation in China, and is also known as China's "the first long scroll of beautiful ladies".

"Indeed, it's too careless to be fake. There are a lot of things missing in this painting." One of the old people spoke substandard Mandarin.

You must know that "Spring Dawn of the Han Palace" takes the Han Dynasty court in the spring morning light as the theme, and depicts various beauties in the harem in the form of a long scroll.

In the painting, there are 110 five people including concubines, maids, princes, eunuchs, and painters. They are all dressed in bright clothes and have different postures. They are both idle and busy.

In addition to the group portraits of ladies, various literati-style leisure activities are also incorporated: including dressing up, watering, folding branches, arranging flowers, raising, singing and dancing, playing and singing, sitting around the stove, playing chess, reading, fighting grass, looking at mirrors, viewing paintings, Images, baby play, food delivery, fan waving, etc.

But the painting in front of him is obviously missing some content.

Is this the light version?
"The real "Spring Dawn of the Han Palace" should be hidden in Taiwan Island, right? This masterpiece handed down from generation to generation does not seem to have been lost." Xia Yu also said.

The number of Qiu Ying's surviving works is rare, and there are very few authentic works in the market.

Fang Xing touched it with his hand, and suddenly frowned. The scroll is light, is it empty?
He looked carefully and found that there were plugs at both ends of the painting scroll.Fang Xing couldn't help knocking twice with his hand. This time, everyone heard that the scroll was empty, and there seemed to be something inside.

Look at the price again, five thousand dollars.It seems that the store didn't expect to sell this thing for a high price.

At this time, the fat man from before came over again, and seemed to have recognized Xia Yu as a celebrity, and became more enthusiastic.

"Although this painting is not an authentic work, it is a copy, but the person who copied it is a famous artist..." Pi Li Pa La continued a long speech, frothing all over his mouth.

"Is it cheaper?" Fang Xing interrupted him.

The fat man was stunned for a moment, and thought to himself: Seeing that your identities are unusual, do you need to bargain?I didn't take the opportunity to raise the price, which is already very good!

"Five thousand dollars is already the lowest price. Our store is honest and fair, and the prices are always fair. All the compatriots from the motherland know..."

Tut tut!If someone hadn't reminded you, I would have believed your evil.

Fang Xing shrugged: "Then you keep it and sell it slowly. You guys know better than me what's going on with this painting."

After hearing this, the fat man gritted his teeth: "For actor Xia Yu's sake, three thousand dollars."

Anyway, he has a way to earn it back, so it is not impossible to lower the price.

This time, Fang Xing didn't hesitate and put away the painting.

The others were very understanding and did not tell the situation of the painting scroll.

Sandalwood was often used in ancient painting scrolls. Sandalwood can ward off moisture, and it has a fragrance when the gate is opened, and it can also ward off beetles.

Jade is also used as the shaft head, and ancient sandalwood is used as the shaft body. Because of the weight of the plant, two pieces can be hollowed out, and then combined with the handle as the shaft, so that it is light and does not damage the painting.

In addition, there are also those who use tung and fir as scrolls, and hematoxylin as the scroll, and use lime soup to change the color, which gets better with age and is light in nature.Horns are easy to attract insects, and there is a lot of moisture when uncoiling.It is even more inappropriate to use gold as the shaft head, which is both tacky and easy to attract robbers.There are also those that use crystal as the head of the axis. In short, the scroll should be light, and the heavy axis will damage the painting.

Another old man was negotiating with the fat man about the price of the painting, and he also managed to get him to cut it down, and it was sold for US$15.

Happy to everyone!

The old man felt that he had made money, and the store owner also felt that he had made money.

"Mr. Xia Yu, this way please." The fat man was extremely enthusiastic towards Xia Yu.

Xia Yu was very depressed, and said to herself: I'm afraid you don't know, who is the richest here?Why are you staring at me?
His little net worth is not as good as Fang Xing's fraction!

The audience in the live broadcast room laughed, feeling quite amusing.Xu Qing and the others also snickered, secretly thinking that a certain person really has no eyes, and he should be flattered but not flattered.

"Little brother, the road is narrow!"

"Xia Yu is almost disgusting, right?"

"Haha! The real boss is next to him, he didn't take him seriously, he was convinced."

……

Next, he introduced their town store treasure to Xia Yu.

It was a copybook with not many words, and there were many collection seals on it.

"The work of the little book saint?"

If this is true, it can indeed be called the treasure of the town store.

You must know that Wang Xianzhi's calligraphy achievements are only inferior to his father Wang Xizhi's.

The calligraphy art of Xian Zhi's life is not conservative, and different from his father, the body of the characters likes to have a long shape.The cursive script he wrote is proficient, smooth, and graceful, which is no less than that of his father Wang Xizhi. Father and son are called two kings.

However, because Tang Taizong did not appreciate his works very much, his works did not survive as much as his father's works.

His "Mid-Autumn Tie" has a total of 22 characters in cursive, with a new look and auspicious light, which is rare in the world and is known as the supreme god. It was once included in Sanxi Hall by Qianlong.

Wang Xianzhi's left inks are rarely preserved, and the number is far less abundant than that of Wang Xizhi.

Calligraphy in the early Song Dynasty, "two kings" were used together. Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi paid attention to calligraphy, bought ink marks of ancient emperors and famous ministers, and ordered the servant king to write and engrave ten volumes. This is the famous "Chunhua Pavilion Tie".

Song Huizong loved Wang Xianzhi's calligraphy, and the number of Wang Xianzhi's calligraphy collected in "Xuanhe Shupu" increased to more than [-] pieces.However, most of these ink-printed books have not been preserved. There are no more than seven ink-printed books, and all of them are copies.

It can be said that there are very few surviving works of Wang Xianzhi.

Xia Yu saw that it was still the famous "Duck Head Pill Post".

The original "Yatouwan Tie" in my impression has been lost. The "Yatouwantie" collected in the Shanghai Museum in China is a copy of the Tang Dynasty, with a total of 15 characters in two lines.

This copybook has two meanings, dip the ink twice, one sentence at a time, the ink color changes from wet to dry, from thick to light, and the ink color is distinct.Thus showing the rhythmic ups and downs and natural changes of the whole post.

Not to mention the treasure of the town store, if it is genuine, it will be the treasure of the town hall if it is taken to the museum.

Xia Yu didn't quite believe it. It didn't make sense that domestic experts didn't hear about such an important calligraphy.If it was true, it would have been taken back by domestic experts long ago, so can it still be sold in this shop openly?

This treasure has no price tag.

But the fat man gestured with his hand, 350 million US dollars.

hehe!Dare to think, more than 2000 million RMB!

Of course, if it is genuine, let alone more than 2000 million, [-] million is not too much.
