Chapter 293: See Acquaintances Again
These collections, of course, let Zhao Tianming feast his eyes, but what he gained more was Zhou Lao's insights and points, which gave him a deeper understanding of the vertical and horizontal lines of antique cultural relics, ancient and modern development.
Just as they were talking, Mrs. Zhou came in and told him that a guest had come to visit.
"Then let's go out first, and when we are free, I'll take you to have a good visit, why don't we have a good exchange." ”
Being interrupted, Zhou Lao felt a little unfinished. The young people who usually come to visit are either afraid of his name and trembling, or some juniors, respectful and respectful, not very interesting, and it is rare to meet someone who can talk.
When he got out of the hall, Zhao Tianming found that there were several people sitting inside, and someone had already served hot tea. The people I saw in the morning were gone, and only some calligraphy works hung on the wall.
One of the guests was an old man in his seventies and eighties, with a snow-white beard and long beard on his chest. Next to it, there is also a reddish-purple wooden crutch, and the head of the crutch is also carved with a birthday star, which is not ordinary at first glance.
And the other young people, Zhao Tianming found that they were very familiar, it was Li Xiushan's theft gang, how could they be with that old man?
It seems that the old man with the purpose of philanthropy is not a simple character!
A few people next to the old man were also a little stunned when they saw Zhao Tianming, and whispered, isn't this guy mixed up in the Yangcheng antique world? Why did he come here?
"That kid, look, is it a little familiar?" The boss is good at watching and grasping the overall situation, and soon noticed Zhao Tianming.
"That's right, I've seen it in Yangcheng, the last time we beat that Korean, he was outside the alley. ”
The second child is the "master" in the gang, not only has fast hands, but also brighter eyes, and is almost unforgettable. This guy often shows off in private, and the fat sheep he has stolen can be recognized when he sees it, and he will never make an oolong.
"Looks like we're quite lucky! Li Xiushan muttered.
"Then should we 'take care' of him a little more?"
The little three thieves in the gang have eyebrows and evil eyes, and they have bad eyes, and the last time they beat the Koreans, he was the first to propose it, and the idea was also his idea.
"Okay, do you want to wait and say hello?" As soon as he said this, the second child suddenly became interested, and his hands began to itch, forgetting where this was.
"I'm afraid he doesn't have any good goods on him! The boss said, who was getting taller and taller.
"There should be a lot, right? Last time I helped pit Koreans, he was the main force, and he had a very good vision. Boss, how can we say that we used to be in the same trench, isn't that right? It's immoral, why don't you change your goal?" Li Xiushan looked at the boss.
"What do you think I'm doing? It's not my idea, you go to the third child!" the boss glared back.
"Boss, you cheat me, it's obviously you who make the decision!"
A few people muttered, and the white-bearded old man glared at him angrily, and suddenly fell silent and shut up.
Zhou Lao was also a little surprised when he saw the old man, this fifth master, older than him, he naturally knew him, and his reputation was not small, when he was still a hairy boy, people had already made a name for themselves, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was a generation higher.
But this master, who has been entrenched in the ancient town of Jiangnan outside the city all the year round, has rarely come out and walked around in recent years, how did he visit today?
Besides, they are not people on the same road, one lives in the temple and the other is far away from the rivers and lakes, although there are some intersections, but there is no contact.
The visitor was a guest, and Zhou Lao walked over and said hello.
"Fifth master, I didn't expect you to come to visit, it's really a rare guest, what kind of wind blew you here?"
"My old man doesn't come out to walk around anymore, his bones are about to fall apart, and he still has a few years to live, and he comes out to see some of the new world of flowers outside. Speaking of which, Lao Zhou and I, although we have always been neighbors, it seems that we have never been to you! Every time we come and go, we are outside. ”
The old man looked around and said with great interest: "These are the works left by your disciples and grandchildren? Not bad!
I don't know if he is talking about the owner of those works, or Zhou Lao himself.
"It's all the bad work of some young people, I can't get into the eyes of the fifth master, I don't know, the fifth master came to visit, what advice do you have?" Zhou Lao said politely, but there was a joy on his face that could not be hidden.
"If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, you will come to the door today, and there is indeed something to disturb you. This is a painting by Tang Yin, and I would like to ask you to palm your eyes. The fifth master pointed to a painting that was placed aside and said.
"Tang Yin's paintings, the old man is well-versed in the past and the present, this should not be difficult for you, right?"
Zhou Lao glanced at the painting and said a little strangely, if the fifth master can't see something accurately, then it doesn't seem too necessary to let him make a move.
"Alas, people are old, useless, and dizzy. This is a new thing, brought out of the tomb, probably too well preserved, too new, so that I can't see it accurately, and it has not been passed down to the world, and there are traces to be found, so I can only borrow your keen eyes to distinguish the authenticity. ”
The fifth master sighed and said, however, no one took his previous words seriously, and his brain was dizzy to believe what he said.
In fact, he chose to come to Zhou's hometown, in addition to Zhou's fame, his level is profound, and the fifth master also has the intention of transferring things to him, otherwise, he would not have brought Li Xiushan and a few little guys over together.
In addition, this thing has just come out of the tomb, and the rapid changes in the environment can easily damage the painting, and it needs professionals to maintain and preserve it.
At this point, the fifth master believes that the other party can also understand what he means.
"Brought out of the tomb?"
Zhou Lao suddenly felt a little solemn, although he had no resistance to this aspect, and there was no taboo, but he was still a little touched.
When Zhao Tianming heard what the fifth master said, he immediately looked at Li Xiushan and the others. He knew that the painting must have been acquired by those guys, otherwise it wouldn't be here.
It's just that they're obviously a gang of thieves, right? How can they touch this kind of thing? Did they change careers? Or did they get it by hand?
Zhou Lao walked over, carefully spread out the scroll, and looked at it with a serious expression.
Zhao Tianming and Gu Jiahua also walked over, if it was really Tang Yin's work, they naturally wanted to open their eyes.
Li Xiushan and several people also came around, although they didn't know how to appreciate it, it didn't prevent them from joining in the fun. And if it's true, they get rich.
