I started to become more self-disciplined at the age of 30

Chapter 188 187. How much is the first cursive script in history + a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation worth?
Local products...

Everyone was speechless when they heard Jiang Chen’s words!
This would surely be a masterpiece that would be passed down through the ages, but Jiang Chen made it sound a bit rustic.

but.

They also knew that this might just be a joke from Jiang Chen.

The value of the work itself and the level of calligraphy are there, so its artistic heritage and value cannot depreciate.

After Jiang Chen finished talking about the lottery, he said to Liu Hongwei, Peng Lidong, Li Li and others apologetically: "Wei Ge, Dongzi, Xiao Lizi, I'm sorry, I have to leave first, you guys continue drinking."

Liu Hongwei, Peng Lidong and Li Li all hurriedly shook their heads to indicate that it was okay.

Liu Hongwei smiled and said, "Okay, Lao Jiang, I know you are determined to go to bed early and start your health regimen. We will definitely not hold you back. You can come and have a couple of drinks with us today, and let everyone know about me and Dongzi. We are already very satisfied."

Peng Lidong: "Old Jiang, go back and go to bed early. We are still waiting for your performance at the school celebration the day after tomorrow."

Li Li: "Old Jiang, when will you include me in your poems?"

Li Li was also extremely eager.

Who wouldn’t want such an opportunity to go down in history?

Squad leader Liao Xiaoguang smiled and said, "It's okay, we can get together again in a couple of days."

This time, each of them took at least a week's vacation to attend the class reunion and school anniversary. Their units and companies also approved it because they knew they were going to reunite with Jiang Chen. They all reminded them to bring back at least one photo with Jiang Chen.

So, after the school celebration is over in a few days, everyone in their class will definitely have a farewell dinner together.

Jiang Chen waved to all the classmates in the class and glanced around without lingering on anyone. Liu Yu, who was standing behind, looked at Jiang Chen with some disappointment.

Jiang Chen nodded to the principal, Yan Shouzhong, and Huang Bo, then glanced at Li Wenjun, Wang Fei, and Qin Xuerong, smiled and nodded as a greeting, then turned and left.

Yan Ruyu, Han Qing, Pu Yuexi, Chen Xiaojia and others also hurried to keep up with Jiang Chen's pace.

Yan Ruyu even had to drive Jiang Chen and the others personally.

Han Qing's live broadcast was still on, and there were still three million people online in the room. Every viewer was excitedly discussing what Jiang Chen had said about the live lottery tomorrow.

Everyone is eager to win the lottery, become rich overnight, and achieve financial freedom.

The people on the street were all eating in the surrounding shops, so the road was much easier to walk on now, and it was not so crowded that you couldn't even see the road.

The many people around who came to watch Jiang Chen waved to him.

Jiang Chen nodded and smiled.

Excited shouts were heard all around.

"I was born with talent and it will be useful. I can make it back even if I lose all my money. Awesome!"

"Lao Jiang, you are awesome!"

"Good night, Jiang Chen!"

"Jiang Chen, I love you..."

……

Amid shouts, Jiang Chen, under the protection of Yan Ruyu and Han Qing, left the street and got into Yan Ruyu's car.

Han Qing also turned off the live broadcast at this time. Although the number of viewers in the live broadcast room was still over 3 million and the number of viewers had not decreased at all, Han Qing still decisively turned it off and prepared to go back and rest.

As soon as they got in the car, Yan Ruyu said excitedly, "Old Jiang, you are amazing. Your cursive writing is the best I have ever seen. The cursive masters in history are not as good as you. I was born with talents that will be useful. Even if I spend all my money, I will get it back. You write so well."

Yan Ruyu is worthy of being a top student of Shuimu, and she has a better understanding of Jiang Chen's work.

First of all, masters of cursive calligraphy have been rare in history.

Because cursive script is used in relatively few situations and is a calligraphy font that reflects personal preferences. It was rarely used in daily life in ancient times because it is very informal.

Since ancient times, the most commonly used are naturally official script and regular script, followed by running script, and cursive script is a niche calligraphy font.

So, naturally, master calligraphers in the field of cursive script are extremely rare. In the entire two thousand years of history, there are only a few recorded examples. Compared with the dozens of calligraphy masters in the field of running script, they are almost negligible.

Therefore, most people know little about cursive script, and naturally do not know any great master-level works in the field of cursive script.

Yan Ruyu came from a literary family and was also an excellent student at Shuimu, so she naturally knew more about these things. She knew that the cursive calligraphy that Jiang Chen had just written was better than the original works left by two cursive calligraphy masters from a thousand years ago in the National Museum!

In terms of cursive calligraphy alone, Jiang Chen can now be said to be the best in history, with no one comparable to him.

Therefore, even if this work is just an ordinary piece, its value cannot be low because it is the first cursive calligraphy in history.

However, this work itself is a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation. Coupled with the fact that it is the first cursive calligraphy in history, its value is no less than that of Jiang Chen's Song of Everlasting Sorrow, which is most recognized by professionals.

That's why Yan Ruyu said these words so excitedly at this moment.

She really wanted the original painting of "Song of the Wine", and she planned to let her brother spend all his money to buy it for her.

After hearing Yan Ruyu's praise, Jiang Chen just smiled and said nothing. He looked towards the familiar Sichuan University in his memory and took a look at the surrounding scenery.

…………

At this time, President Gao, Yan Shouzhong, Huang Bo and others also left the food stall, leaving only most of the students in Liao Xiaoguang and Liu Hongwei's class still eating and drinking there. After all, it was only around nine o'clock, and for them it was just the beginning of the nightlife. If they disbanded now, they didn't know what to do, so they simply planned to eat here until late at night and chat and brag together.

As soon as the principal returned to school, he immediately said to Yan Shouzhong: "Jiang Chen will send this authentic painting of "Jiang Jin Jiu" tomorrow. Do we have a chance to get it?"

Yan Shouzhong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "It's very difficult! Unless one of our own wins the prize and then convinces him to sell it to the school at a low price. Otherwise it's impossible. But even at a low price, the price can't be lower than 300 million to 500 million. After all, if the outside world offers a price of 1 billion, if we can't even give half of 500 million, it's equivalent to robbery."

"Jiang Chen's authentic painting of "Shang Jin Jiu" is the best in cursive script in history. With the blessing of a masterpiece handed down from generation to generation, its value is amazing. It is very collectible and can be directly placed in the top calligraphy and painting exhibition hall of the National Museum now."

After hearing this, the principal nodded to show that he understood.

It is impossible for the school to spend more than one billion to purchase Jiang Chen's works.

Sichuan University is one of the few comprehensive top universities in the country, which means it has a huge business scope and many places where money needs to be spent. It is impossible to just spend billions of dollars casually.

At most, we can squeeze out three to five hundred million yuan of funds!

However, the president of the university also knew that it was basically impossible to buy Jiang Chen's painting "Jiang Jinjiu" for three or five hundred million yuan.

Even if someone from the school won the prize, he wouldn't be so bold as to ask others to sell it to the school at half price.

That’s not half the price of three or five hundred, but half the price of one billion!
The principal sighed and said, "What a pity."

Yan Shouzhong nodded: "It's a pity, but there is a long way to go, let's find another opportunity in the future. However, even if we can't buy the original painting of "Song of the Wine", we can print this poem and exhibit it in the school. Especially the line "I was born with talents that will be useful, and even if I spend all my money, I will get it back." This poem is very educational and can inspire all those who are at the bottom of their lives."

Principal Gao: "It's very good. I can't help but want to make a portrait of Jiang Chen and hang it in every classroom in the school. I will write his famous quotes on it. I guess it won't fit on a page."

Yan Shouzhong smiled. Indeed, Jiang Chen wrote so many poems and verses along the way from the Magic City that they couldn't even fit on a single page!

As if in a dream, I don't know I am a guest, and I enjoy myself for a moment! The flowing water and falling flowers are gone, and the spring is gone, and the home in heaven is gone!

If I could climb to the top of the mountain, I would look down on all the other mountains!

If you kill one person every ten steps, you will not leave any trace in a thousand miles!
If I see the mountains as charming, I believe the mountains see me as such!
If I was born with talents, I will be useful. Even if I lose all my money, I will get it back!

Etc., etc……

There is no way to finish it.

The words and phrases in each of Jiang Chen's works are worthy of being passed down through the ages and are enough to become representative works of many literati and poets in history.

They have such a genius in Sichuan University, and I don’t know what good things he has done.

…………

Li Wenjun returned to her apartment at Sichuan University and immediately sent a message to her brother Li Wenbin: "Have you watched Jiang Chen's live broadcast?"

Li Wenbin replied: "I saw it. He is going to send out the song he just wrote, "Song of the Wine". Do you want it?"

Li Wenjun: "Yes, I want it!"

Li Wenbin: "I want it too. I'm raising money and I can get 1.5 billion in cash flow in a short period of time. I'll use the money to buy it tomorrow. If I can buy it, I'll put it up in my office for two years and then give it to you!"

Li Wenjun: "Give you a month, then give it to me!"

Li Wenbin: “One and a half years!”

Li Wenjun: “One month!”

Li Wenbin: "I spent 1.5 billion, but I can only own it for one month?"

Li Wenjun: "I want to stay in Chengdu!"

Li Wenbin was silent for a while, then said, "Want to stay there and wait for Jiang Chen?"

Li Wenjun: “Yeah!”

Li Wenbin: "Okay, if I can buy it, I'll keep it for a month and then give it to you! Then I'll sell the company's shares, and your share will be given directly to you. This is considered a separation."

Li Wenjun fell silent, standing by the window of his apartment, looking at the night view of Sichuan University outside. He didn't know what to say, and didn't know whether what he was doing was right or wrong.

She knew that if she stayed in Chengdu, she would most likely work at Sichuan University, which meant she would be away from her family in Beijing.

Brother Li Wenbin gave her the shares directly, which was equivalent to dividing the family to avoid disputes in the future. She could handle this part of the shares by herself in the future, which was considered as her dowry.

She didn't know how much it was worth because she had no concept of money in these years and had no idea about her brother's business.

However, she believed that she would not have to worry about money for the rest of her life and could do whatever she wanted. Even if she stopped working and retired to the mountains with Jiang Chen, even if Jiang Chen did not earn a penny from then on, she would be able to support Jiang Chen and herself for the rest of their lives and live any life they wanted.

Similarly, if Li Wenbin bought Jiang Chen's "Jiang Jinjiu", he would only appreciate it for a month and then give it to Li Wenjun. This work could be considered a dowry to Jiang Chen, a dowry worth at least more than 10 billion.

Li Wenjun was silent for a while, then replied: "Thank you, brother!"

She knew that her brother had given a lot for her since she was a child and protected her very well, allowing her to be out of touch with the world and not know the sufferings of the world. That was why many people called her a fairy-like temperament, as if she was a fairy who had descended to the earth, with fairy air all over her body.

This is all developed from childhood.

Li Wenbin: "You're welcome! This is not ancient times, and transportation is inconvenient. If you marry far away, you will almost never have contact with each other for the rest of your life. Now there are airplanes and high-speed trains. It only takes half a day to get from Chengdu to Beijing. You can come back whenever you want. I will say hello to my acquaintances at Beijing University, and there will be a place for you whenever you come back."

"Or you can come to my company and I'll give you a senior management position just for fun."

"In short, you don't have to compromise yourself for anything. Just do whatever you want. When you need help from your brother, don't hesitate."

Li Wenjun: "Okay, thank you brother!"

Li Wenbin: "Tell my parents!"

Li Wenjun: “I know!”

Ended the chat.

Li Wenjun talked to her parents again, and they didn't object much.

After all, Li Wenjun is already this old and has been quite opinionated since childhood.

The most important thing is that they also hope that Li Wenjun can be with Jiang Chen. A super great writer like Jiang Chen who is famous in history will also have a huge blessing effect on their Li family.

…………

Yan Ruyu sent Han Qing, Pu Yuexi and others to the hotel, and then sent Jiang Chen to the gate of the community. Then she insisted on sending Jiang Chen to the door of the apartment building in person, and said to Jiang Chen with a smile: "Jiang Chen, good night!"

When the residents of the surrounding communities saw this scene, they all came to watch the fun. Many of them were envious, but they did not dare to say anything gossipy.

Everyone knew Jiang Chen's achievements, and they also knew that this fairy-like Yan Ruyu came from an extraordinary family and was not someone that ordinary people like them could offend.

Jiang Chen nodded to Yan Ruyu: "Thank you."

After saying that, Jiang Chen turned around and went upstairs into the apartment building.

Yan Ruyu watched Jiang Chen walk in and disappear before she put away the smile on her face. She turned around and left with a little disappointment. She returned to the car outside and immediately took out her cell phone to call her brother Yan Rufeng. As soon as the call was connected, she muttered, "Guo Guo, I want that deputy general to drink!"

Yan Rufeng surrendered immediately: "Okay, okay, I'll buy it for you, but I can't guarantee that I can buy it. I heard that almost all the top collectors in the country have gathered in Rongcheng now. There are more than a dozen with a net worth of hundreds of billions, and there are several who are even richer. They are all eyeing this authentic painting that Jiang Chen is going to give away. I may not be able to compete with them."

Yan Ruyu remained silent after hearing this, knowing that what her brother said was an objective fact.

The painting "He Xinlang" that Jiang Chen gave away yesterday was sold at a price of 1 billion yuan, but in the end it was left unsold because the young girl Wang Xiaohe refused to sell it.

If Wang Xiaohe is willing to sell, the final price may be more than 10 billion.

And now the painting of "Drinking Song" presented by Jiang Chen is no worse than that of "He Xinlang". If it is presented in public tomorrow, its influence will definitely be maximized.

By then, many top collectors will definitely bid desperately to buy it.

Yan Ruyu said with a hint of grievance: "Okay, then Guo Guo, just do your best."

Yan Rufeng: "I am already raising funds and have called on all employees of the group to watch the live broadcast and participate in the lucky draw. If I win, I can buy it first."

Yan Ruyu: "Okay, thank you Guoguo!"

After finishing the chat, Yan Ruyu drove off and headed for home. However, her mind was full of images of Jiang Chen walking around with her today, especially the scene where Jiang Chen was sitting there singing Chengdu and then writing the song "A General Entering the Wine". She was still amazed and couldn't help feeling dazed when she recalled it.

She had to find a place to stop the car and calm down before she could continue driving.
