Chapter 628: Selling Paintings or Buying Wine
Yu Yao waited for Pu Jie to clean up, put the brocade box into the safe at the back, and then stepped forward to open the door.
To Yu Yao's surprise, there was a girl standing outside the door, with a ponytail and a little big head, but with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, she could be regarded as a beauty.
"Are you?are you looking for someone?" asked Yu Yao, standing in the doorway.
"This is an antique shop, right?"
"Yes, but it's closed. Why don't you come back tomorrow?"
Although the self-warming cup has been put away, Yu Yao is still very careful, let alone a stranger.
"I'm not buying something, I'm having something to come out of. You should collect things here, right?" said the girl, raising the bag in her hand, which looked like a badminton racket bag, but it was obviously not a badminton racket inside, because the round end was not propped up.
Yu Yao looked at the girl, and saw that she was in her twenties, more like a college student, and there was no bad atmosphere.
However, it was already 9 o'clock in the evening, so how could she come here to sell antiques? Not to mention that the curtains and curtains were drawn in the store, and the door was locked, and she still knocked on the door?
"What's the matter, you Gegu Zhai have a lot of money, and you don't do business when you come to the door?" Seeing that Yu Yao didn't speak, the girl couldn't help but raise her voice and added.
"Who said not to do it, please come in!" Pu Jie stepped forward at this time.
At the same time, Pu Jie patted Yu Yao's shoulder, "If you don't do business, it's like we have ghosts." ”
Yu Yao thought for a moment, "Okay, please come in." ”
Unexpectedly, the girl laughed as she entered the store, "You two······ Won't it be?"
Yu Yao coughed, "Sit down and look at things." "But I thought to myself, I was joking like this when I met for the first time, it seems that I am really a student.
The girl sat down at the table of the Eight Immortals, but instead of immediately opening the racket bag, she took a deep breath, "You guys just drank?"
"It doesn't seem to have anything to do with what you're selling, right?" Yu Yao responded.
"Good wine!" I asked about the smell outside the door!"
Pu Jie was standing at the door and had just lit a cigarette, but when he heard this, he didn't light it and walked over, "You also like to drink?"
"Judging from the taste of wine, it looks like the base of rice wine, but it is by no means ordinary rice wine, or it is impossible to have such a good wine on the market, otherwise there would not be such a strong aroma, and according to this aroma, you have warmed the bar?"
Yu Yao and Pu Jie looked at each other. This nose is simply amazing!
"You didn't come in because you smelled wine, did you?" Pu Jie looked at the girl and then at the racket bag, "What antiques do you have to sell?"
"I didn't expect a small antique shop to have this kind of good wine. The girl replied vaguely, and lifted the racket bag to the table of the Eight Immortals, "Then let's take a look at things first!"
Yu Yao didn't speak, just nodded.
What the girl took out was a scroll.
"Hand on. The girl pinched the shaft and stood up.
Yu Yao also got up and stretched it back.
This is a picture of drinking alone under the white moon.
It is the image of Li Bai that is outlined. There was a full moon in the sky, a few flowers and plants around, Li Bai raised his glass to invite the moon, and his posture was extremely chic.
A pot of wine among the flowers, drinking alone without a blind date. Raise a glass to invite Mingyue, and the shadow becomes a trio.
The picture is large and blank, and the book on one side is signed: Shangguan Zhou of Xinhai Autumn Bamboo Village.
There are two sides of the seal, one side is "Shangguan Zhou Yin" and the other side is "Zhuzhuang".
"Shangguan Zhou?" Yu Yao let out a slight sigh.
"Kind of a good thing, right?" the girl smug slightly.
"I'll take another look. You put it on the counter!"
"Good. The girl answered, and after putting down the painting, Yu Yao continued to look, but she walked up to Pu Jie, "Mr. Big Man, what kind of wine are you drinking?"
Pu Jie stroked his curly hair, "My surname is Pu, not my surname." ”
"Okay, Boss Pu, what kind of wine are you drinking?"
"I'm not the boss either. I really can't see that a beauty like you also likes to drink?" Pu Jie tilted his head.
The girl suddenly stopped talking.
Pu Jie laughed twice and pointed to the rice wine and wine on the table, "That's all." ”
"No way! These two wines can't produce this aroma. ”
"What am I lying to you about?"
······
Yu Yao's energy was focused on painting, and he didn't care too much about what they were talking about.
This Shangguan Zhou was a famous painter in the early Qing Dynasty, especially the figure painting, which can be described as unique.
In the early Qing Dynasty, landscape painting and flower and bird painting were relatively prosperous, and there were also representative figures, but figure painting was somewhat in decline. This Shangguan Zhou is even the most eye-catching celebrity.
Shangguan Zhou, the word Wenzuo, the number Zhuzhuang, was born in a peasant family, and he was clothed all his life.
The biggest feature of Shangguan Zhou's figure paintings is that the brushwork is chic. Although he was a cloth cloth, his reputation was not small, and the Qing court also paid attention to his figure paintings. The famous "Kangxi Southern Tour Map" was ordered by the imperial court to let Shangguan Zhou cooperate with Wang Yuanqi and Wang Shigu.
At the same time, Shangguan Zhou also has certain attainments in landscape painting, and he has an apprentice who is also more famous, that is, Huang Shen, one of the "Eight Monsters of Yangzhou".
There are many hand-me-down works of Shangguan Zhou, but there are not many fine works, many of which are random paintings.
His most famous masterpiece is "Yao Island Immortal Residence", which depicts the image of the Eight Immortals, which was auctioned for more than two million yuan just a few years ago.
He also has a collection called "The Biography of the Evening Laughter", which depicts the embroidered portraits of 120 historical figures. In the eighth year of Qianlong, the famous craftsman engraved and published this collection, which was divided into two volumes, and became one of the important copies of many painters in the Qing Dynasty to learn figure painting.
The book is also available now. Because Shangguan Zhou arranged and painted it according to historical data, and each embroidered statue was accompanied by the text of Xiangzan, many people also bought it as a study book other than painting.
When Yu Yao finished reading it, Pu Jie and the girl were no longer talking. The girl didn't believe that it was the aroma of rice wine and red wine on the table, but Pu Jie naturally wouldn't say much, so in the end she simply didn't ask, and just waited for Yu Yao to finish reading.
Yu Yao gently rolled up the painting and handed it to the girl, and at the same time asked:
"What's the price?"
The girl took the scroll, "Sell the goods and know the family, you can look at it!"
Yu Yao smiled, slowly paced to the door, and lit a cigarette. Because it was a young girl who came in, but there were two big men in the store, the door of the store was not closed after she came in.
"It's better for you to come out and save time. Yu Yao said indifferently.
The girl flipped the scroll in her hand, "This painting, in fact, I originally wanted to go to the Seven Star Bridge tomorrow to shoot, tonight I was passing by here after dinner with my friends, and found that your plaque was written well, so I approached and took a look, but when I got to the door, I smelled the aroma of wine······"
Yu Yao frowned, but didn't interrupt.
"In this case, you sell me some of the wine you drank just now, and I can give you this painting cheaply!"
Pu Jie and Yu Yao glanced at each other, and Pu Jie blurted out, "Beauty, are you here to sell paintings or buy wine?"
