Chapter 13 The Colorful Moon Flows West
Just as Shi Xiaolin was about to enter the house to sign a contract with Huang Jianjian, Tang Xin suddenly said, "Miss Shi, I know you don't trust me. However, I still want to persuade you: don't sign this cheap contract for the time being, let me see your collection first. According to Miss Chen, there are some genuine items in your collection, and the expert estimate is more than 3 million. In this case, why are you in such a hurry to make a move? There are antique dealers in Hengjiang City who know the goods, are you still afraid that no one will come to buy your goods?"
Huang Jianli glanced at Tang Xin a few times in surprise, and saw that he was wearing a pair of jeans with holes, a white shirt that was a little wrinkled, and his hair was very thick and dense, but it was slightly messy, and he looked a bit like a migrant worker moving bricks on a construction site.
"Miss Shi, what kind of immortal is this little brother? I don't think he's very old, but his tone is not small!" Huang Jianli asked in a contemptuous tone.
Shi Xiaolin pointed at Chen Yunhan with her hand and said stupidly: "This is a friend brought by Miss Chen, it is said that he has magical treasure appreciation skills, and he wants to help me re-identify those collections." ”
Huang Jianli looked up to the sky and said to Chen Yunhan: "Miss Chen, I must watch almost every episode of the "Treasure Jian" program you host, I have always felt that you are a smart girl with both wisdom and beauty, how can you be fooled like this? If this little brother has any magical treasure appreciation skills, you will pick out my eyeballs!"
Tang Xin has been wandering on the street since he was ten years old, and later worked in an antique shop for many years, and he has seen too much of the arrogant faces of those who are suddenly rich, and he has long developed a stoic character that is not shocked, so in the face of Huang Jianjian's contempt, although he was angry, he did not show it, and asked lightly: "Mr. Huang, is this true? Picking out your eyeballs is not a joke, not only is it very painful, but it will also fall into the notoriety of 'having eyes but no beads', and become the laughing stock of others, so I advise you not to say it too absolutely!"
Although his words were plain and soft, they were full of ridicule and sarcasm, which made Huang Jianjian so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time.
Shi Xiaolin didn't expect Tang Xin, who looked like a migrant worker, to be so calm and sharp, so she couldn't help but stare at him a few times with curious eyes, and suddenly found that although he spoke and behaved very calmly and calmly, his eyes were extremely sharp, as if he could penetrate other people's minds at a glance, and he couldn't help but secretly wonder in his heart.
So, she said to Huang Jianli calmly: "Mr. Huang, don't worry about juniors. Since Mr. Tang is very confident, let's give him a try: There are four genuine items in my collection, which have been identified by several experts and teachers, and you and Mr. Li have also recognized them.
"We're going to ask Mr. Tang to come in and have an appraisal of those collections. If he can find those four genuine pieces from that collection, it will prove that he is truly extraordinary, and you and I will have to apologize to him. On the other hand, if he can't find any of them, or if he makes a mistake, ask him to apologize to you. As for picking out the eyeballs, this is all about gassing, so don't worry about it, okay?"
Then, she turned her eyes to look at Tang Xin and asked, "Mr. Tang, do you think what I said is fair?"
Tang Xin said indifferently: "Okay! I didn't bring it up in the first place, it was Mr. Huang's own flatulence words, I won't take it seriously." ”
Afterwards, the group walked into the villa and entered the storage room on the first floor.
This large storage room is divided into various types of collectibles.
Tang Xin walked to the front of the first storage shelf first, picked up all the porcelain placed on it and looked at it, and through the picture printed in his mind, he judged that one of the porcelain was the genuine Qinglong Tianqiu bottle in the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, and the rest were modern handicrafts.
After noting down the location of the Tianqiu bottle, Tang Xin continued to walk forward quietly, stopping in front of the bronze rack and miscellaneous rack respectively, observing and touching each collection one by one, and found three more genuine pieces.
In the process, when Huang Jianli and Mr. Li saw that when he identified the collection, they neither used a magnifying glass nor carefully observed the subtle features of the objects, but held each collection up, glanced at it like a glimpse of the light, and then put it down after contemplating for a moment, and then went to look at the next collection, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but skim a sneer.
Shi Xiaolin originally had a trace of expectation for him, but at this moment, seeing his way of appreciating treasures, that glimmer of expectation disappeared completely, thinking that where is this treasure appreciation?
So, she turned her head to look at Chen Yunhan with a reproachful gaze, and the expression of disappointment and impatience on her face became thicker and thicker......
At this time, Tang Xin had already come to the shelf where he collected paintings and calligraphy.
Most of these paintings and calligraphy are the "works" of famous painters or calligraphers in modern and modern times, such as Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, Liu Haisu, Pan Tianshou, Qi Gong, Cao Baolin, Ouyang Zhongshi, and so on.
However, the works of these modern and contemporary calligraphers and painters are all fakes without exception.
At the bottom of the storage shelf, Tang Xin picked up a painting, and as soon as he opened the scroll, frames of pictures immediately appeared in front of him. And in these pictures, he saw the familiar figure of the old man again.
This ancient, who was splashing ink to write poems with inscriptions, was Wen Zhengming, one of the four great talents of the Ming Dynasty.
Tang Xin was overjoyed and hurriedly looked at the content of the painting.
On the right side of this painting are four relatively large small block letters: "Colorful Moon Flowing West", which should be the title of this painting.
In the picture, a bright moon hangs in the sky, and there is a small attic nest near the mountains and rivers below. A young man dressed in a Ming Dynasty Confucian costume is leaning on the railing of the attic, with a bamboo flute lying across his mouth, playing intently. And to the north of the attic, there are several peaks. The peaks were hazy and looming under the light veil of the moonlight.
In the blank space at the top of the scroll, there is a small poem: "The wind and dew in the song column wake up at night, and the colorful moon flows west and thousands of trees and smoke." The human language is gradually fainting, where does Yulang support Chanjuan?"
This poem is also in small block letters.
On the lower right side of the poem, there is a line of small block letters, which reads: "On the night of August 16 in the year of Gengchen, the guest lived in Yingfeng Pavilion in Liushan Mountain, saw the moon and the white wind was clear, the peaks were suffocating, and the guests heard the sound of the flute. Textual wall drunken question. ”
When he saw the words "Wenbi drunken question", Tang Xin was overjoyed: it turned out that Wen Zhengming often wrote poems and paintings in a drunken state, so there were "mistakes and omissions" in his later years with the title "Wenbi" and the small block font deformed and out of shape.
In this way, it can be further proved that Mr. Liu's painting "Qingquan Stone Downstream" is genuine......
After reading all the collections, Tang Xin walked up to Shi Xiaolin and said with a smile: "Miss Shi, I have finished the appraisal, now please follow my instructions and take out the real treasure inside." ”
