Meng Zitao was lazy and Zong Yifeng, and said lightly: "You can go and inquire, is there any expert who has never opened his eyes in his life? Which one can guarantee that there is no problem at all about what he has identified alone?"

Jiang Haoyan said: "There is indeed no expert in this world who is not eye-catching, but you must also have evidence, and you can't talk without evidence." ”

"I have proof, but did you give me the time?"

Meng Zitao sneered, and then he pointed out the problem with the porcelain: "Of course, if you don't believe it, you can also ask another master, or believe in the judgment of this teacher Jiang, he is also a 'master and disciple'." ”

A cold light flashed in Jiang Haoyan's eyes, and he said lightly: "It's true that I was wrong, but I feel a little strange, I and several old-timers have seen this porcelain, and they haven't seen the problem, how can Mr. Meng see the flaws so easily?"

"This guy is really insidious. Meng Zitao was a little annoyed in his heart, he could hear what Jiang Haoyan meant, it was nothing more than saying that this high imitation might have something to do with him. Although even if it is spread out, there are few believers, but there will always be some people with big brains who will believe it, and may bring him some trouble.

Moreover, based on Zong Yifeng's hostility towards him, Meng Zitao also believed that Jiang Haoyan's words would definitely spread, and even Jiang Haoyan would secretly add fuel to the fire, which would definitely have an impact on his reputation at that time, and this matter must be taken seriously.

Thinking so, Meng Zitao said sarcastically: "No way, who told me to teach my master well." ”

Jiang Haoyan snorted coldly and stopped talking.

At this time, Ms. Zhu spoke: "Zong Yifeng, I remember that you wanted to buy this porcelain, and at that time I also advised you not to buy it if it was too expensive, you just have to buy it, what to say now." ”

Zong Yifeng sneered: "Then why don't you say it, these jade pieces are also what I have to buy, and now the price has risen, do you give me all the price that has increased! Oh, if you make it together, you will share it equally, and if you don't make it, it's my problem, how can there be such a reason!"

Ms. Zhu said angrily: "Phew, you still have the face to say, you don't count it, can you lose as much as you lose? Besides, I originally planned to use that money to speculate in stocks, just because I bought this porcelain, I made a wave of less market, and I made at least tens of thousands of dollars less! Now it's good, I didn't make money on stocks, and I lost a lot of money, you say it's not your responsibility?!"

"It's still what you say......"

Zong Yifeng was also short-tempered, he didn't speak politely at all, and after a few words, the two of them quarreled, and in the end, they stopped because their daughter was also mad.

The daughter said with a calm face: "Dad, you belong to the wrong party in the matter of divorce, it stands to reason that your share of property should be reduced, don't tell me, most of the money in the family is earned by you, if it weren't for my mother's face, would you have a chance to make money?"

Zong Yifeng waved his hand a little impatiently: "Okay, okay, who called me unlucky, married a woman like your mother, in this way, how much money I bought at the beginning, I count two-thirds, it's all right." ”

Ms. Zhu has no opinion on this, although Zong Yifeng is the party at fault, but now most of the family's money is in Zong Yifeng's hands, she belongs to the weak party, if she really wants to go to the court, maybe how to solve it, it is better to accept it when it is good.

After the dispute, I continued to look at the appraisal results, and there were no problems with the few things that came down from the porcelain, until the landscape painting of Lan Ying, the appraisal results were just the opposite of the blue and white jars, Meng Zitao thought it was genuine, and Jiang Haoyan thought it was an imitation.

Meng Zitao smiled: "This time, I want to ask Mr. Jiang to talk about his opinions, why do you think this is an imitation?"

"It seems that Mr. Meng is still a little lacking in calligraphy and painting. ”

Before Jiang Haoyan explained, he didn't forget to belittle Meng Zitao, and then came up with a reason, but this reason was not new to Meng Zitao.

Meng Zitao said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Jiang thinks that a person is born a national player, and he has never had a learning process, and the style of his early and later years is the same." ”

Jiang Haoyan said: "Yes, the style of the painter in the early and middle periods is indeed different, but there are always some shadows. ”

Meng Zitao said lightly: "Why is there no shadow, it's just that your eyesight is not good, and you don't see it." ”

Jiang Haoyan sneered: "Okay, I'm going to hear what Teacher Meng has to say." ”

Meng Zitao cleared his throat and talked eloquently without nonsense: "This volume was made in the year of Lan Ying's establishment, imitating the painting methods of Fan Kuan, Guo Xi, Zhao Boju, and Li Tang of the Song Dynasty. In particular, the use of axe splitting is quite stiff, and there is no aftermath of self-willingness. However, unlike the limited attainments of pen and ink, in the management of hills and ravines, it has been basically finalized. ”

"I don't know if you have seen Lan Ying's large-scale work "Spring Pavilion Listening to the Spring" made at the same time, which reflects Lan Ying's ability to control the picture and depict it in depth. The morphological texture of mountains, rocks and trees is deeply expressed, and the creation of hills and ravines reflects the influence from the Northern Song Dynasty, especially the style of Li and Tang. The management of hills and gullies matures before the maturity of pen and ink, and is known for its fine depictions and complex pictures. All of these characteristics can be seen in this painting, as well as in the early works. ”

In this painting, the entire process from the peak to the foot of the mountain is depicted, and the spring water that goes down and the path that winds upwards constitute the two threads of the painting. Because the mountain shape and mountain range must maintain a certain degree of integrity, the width of the vertical axis determines the steepness of the mountain. Thus, in the narrow vertical axis, the mountain uplift almost reaches the point of severe deformation. This is also in line with Lan Ying's characteristics in the creation of hills and ravines. ”

"Throughout the whole work, the pen is out of order, meticulous, and the vigorous and majestic atmosphere in his later years, although it is different from the consistent brushwork, is his early years of the semester of the work is extremely attentive. Lan Ying's early works have been handed down very little, but this work is gorgeous and colorful, and has been styled by everyone, and it is an important work for the study of Lan Ying's artistic growth process, and has a very high market value and collection value......"

During the explanation, Meng Zitao also took out his mobile phone and called up several of Lan Ying's early works for comparison.

After listening to Meng Zitao's explanation, Jiang Haoyan smiled disdainfully: "Teacher Meng, no matter how much you talk about it, you can't deny the fact that there is a problem with the seal, isn't it a joke that Lan Ying's works don't even have a seal? ”

"What you say does make sense, but is there no one who can imitate it to this extent? To tell you the truth, I have a work in my hand that is very similar to Lan Ying's early style, and that painting is an authentic imitation. Therefore, in my opinion, I do not agree that this is an authentic painting. Of course, if Mr. Zong, you believe Teacher Meng's judgment, I have nothing to say. Speaking of which, how many years has Mr. Meng studied Lan Ying's works?"

"This ......" the family looked a little hesitant.

This calligraphy and painting appraisal is a very difficult one of all antique appraisals, and even some domestic calligraphy and painting appraisals of Taishan Beidou still have arguments about a certain work, let alone others.

If a calligraphy and painting connoisseur wants to achieve something, he must repeatedly and deeply study the works of a certain historical period or a certain number of painters and artists for a long time, seriously, assiduously and attentively, so that he can be more fully familiar with and grasp the characteristics of the works of a certain historical period, or the brushwork habits, brushwork personality and charm of certain painters.

If a connoisseur of calligraphy and painting can read everything, whether it is ancient or modern, or contemporary authenticity, then he must be a "pseudo-expert", at least a so-called expert who is irresponsible or lacks a serious attitude.

And this is also what Meng Zitao is not very convincing, in the end, he is still too young, according to the normal situation, unless he has been studying calligraphy and painting appreciation since he was a child, how much can he achieve at this age?

Zong Yifeng thought for a while and asked, "Teacher Jiang, what if we take it for scientific appraisal?"

Jiang Haoyan said: "Scientific identification is also good, but you must also know that the high-tech counterfeiting that has appeared in recent years, such as the use of 400 million pixels of imaging plate making and printing technology to imitate counterfeiting, and the use of old paper, ancient ink, old ink and corresponding mineral pigments, scientific and technological identification methods are also difficult to identify the authenticity." ”

Therefore, scientific and technological testing can only be an auxiliary means for the identification of calligraphy and painting, while the traditional 'empirical' and 'ophthalmic science', that is, visual identification, is still the main means in the appraisal of calligraphy and painting. ”

At this time, Ms. Zhu said, "I ...... each other."

"Mom. The daughter tugged at Ms. Zhu's clothes and signaled her not to talk nonsense.

Jiang Haoyan laughed: "Do you believe that this painting is real?" That's good, turn this painting into cash, you take the painting and I will take the money, it's no problem, right?"

When Ms. Zhu heard this, she hesitated again, after all, even if she believed in Meng Zitao again, when it came to money, she still had to take into account her personal interests, and it was impossible to agree casually.

"I have a solution. ”

Meng Zitao smiled and said: "I think this is an authentic painting, and of course I will approve the estimated price, so I am quite willing to buy this work at the price I estimated, so that it is convenient for you to divide it, what do you think?"

Meng Zitao's method is very beneficial to herself, and of course Ms. Zhu is very willing: "Okay, just do it." ”

"No, I don't agree. Zong Yifeng made it clear that he objected.

Ms. Zhu was furious: "What do you mean, you obviously said it just now, take half of the money, and now you regret it, how can there be such a reason!"

Zong Yifeng pointed at Meng Zitao and said, "It's very simple, I don't believe him!"
