Chapter 324: The Wisher Takes the Bait

Meng Zitao took a sip of the tea that the shopkeeper had just poured for him, moistened his throat, and asked, "Mr. Wang, I don't know if you still have any questions?"

"Bang Bang ......" Wang Qianli applauded: "Shopkeeper Meng said it so clearly, how can I have any doubts!"

While the others also said yes, they were also surprised by Mencius's attainments in porcelain identification. Think about yourself at the age of Meng Zitao, it seems that he is just raw melons and eggs in terms of antiques.

At this time, Zhang Jingqiang called Meng Zitao, learned about the situation of the jade pendant, and did not give up, and asked Meng Zitao to bring the jade pendant back.

Meng Zitao told the shopkeeper Zeng about this, and the shopkeeper Zeng apologized and gave Meng Zitao five pieces of flowers.

wrote a receipt to the shopkeeper Zeng, and Meng Zitao was about to say goodbye, at this time, Wang Qianli said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Meng, I heard that this is the leak you just picked up, can you let us open our eyes?"

Meng Zitao was a little puzzled, but when he saw Meng Hongchang's embarrassed look, he immediately understood that it should have been revealed by Meng Hongchang.

Meng Zitao didn't care much about this, antiques pay attention to communication, and everyone diǎn commented on the works, maybe they could have some unique opinions.

"Absolutely. ”

Meng Zitao agreed, stepped forward and put the scroll on the table to unfold it, and when everyone saw the content of the painting, they suddenly exclaimed: "Shen Zhou's (Qi Nan)'s work?! There is actually a Jiaqing Tibetan seal!"

Who was Shen Zhouna? In the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the "Wumen School" was a huge one! Together with Wen Zhengming, Tang Yin, and Qiu Ying, he was called the "Four Ming Schools."

In particular, Shen Zhou's paintings had a profound impact on the development of landscape painting in later generations, one was to integrate the south into the north, carrying forward the tradition of literati painting, and the other was to further combine poetry, calligraphy and painting, so that the concept of literati painting was clearer and stronger, making his paintings more poetic and picturesque.

It can be said that Shen Zhou's paintings are the coveted collection of every collector of calligraphy and painting, and in the auction market, once his paintings appear, they are everyone's Jiao diǎn, such as Shen Zhou's "Hanjiang Solo Fishing" handscroll in 06, after some competition, it was auctioned for a high price of more than 24 million.

Now, a painting of Shen Zhou appeared in front of everyone, and it was also picked up, so that everyone was not shocked, how not to be hot" dǐng "diǎn" small "said, .$.⊥os_();?

For a while, after everyone obtained Mencius's consent, they all concentrated on observing the paintings, and the whole shop was silent, only the sound of everyone's breathing could be heard.

After appreciating the paintings, Li Shijiang's eyes were quite hot, and he was even more envious and jealous of Meng Zitao, why is this kind of treasure not himself, but the leak picked up by this kid, it is really unfair!

"No, I have to ask, can I take this painting!"

Li Shijiang was unwilling, so he immediately took action, and asked with a smile: "Shopkeeper Meng, I don't know if you have any ideas for transferring this painting?"

Li Shijiang's words made everyone's eyes move from the painting to Meng Zitao, waiting for Meng Zitao's answer.

Although Meng Zitao was not surprised that everyone wanted this painting, he still felt a little strange in his heart, could it be that none of the five people saw that this painting was an imitation of Wang Lai?

Seeing everyone's expression, if Meng Zitao hadn't had the conclusion given by the ability, he would have wondered if his judgment was wrong.

"I really have no intention of collecting this painting......"

Meng Zitao's words made everyone happy, but the next words made everyone wonder: "However, I still have some questions about this painting. ”

Meng Zitao's intention is to cooperate for a long time, unless the other party is a person who makes him feel disliked, otherwise he will not dig a pit for others to jump with his own knowledge. Of course, he is not a pedantic person, it is impossible to say, if he tells everything in his mind, he has already woken up, and you still have to jump down, then it is not his problem.

"You don't mean that this painting is not genuine, right?" said Li Shijiang in surprise.

Meng Zitao said: "I think there are some doubts, I can't understand whether it is genuine." ”

"I don't even think it's right for Jiaqing to appreciate the works, this guy is stupid, right? That's right, how old is this kid, he not only understands jade but also porcelain, and he will definitely not be so proficient in calligraphy and painting appraisal." Since you're so stupid, don't blame me for picking up the spills from you. ”

Li Shijiang laughed in his heart, feeling that Meng Zitao's judgment was very ridiculous, and his heart became more and more hot.

The shopkeeper Zeng next to him wanted to ask, but after thinking about it again, he felt that it was too bad to ask this question, and it might ruin Meng Zitao's business. Besides, when he saw Li Shijiang's fiery eyes, how could he not know Li Shijiang's thoughts, if there was indeed a problem with this painting, he would still wish that Li Shijiang would be unlucky.

However, Wang Qianli didn't think of this, and asked with some confusion: "Shopkeeper Meng, I don't know if you can tell me, where do you think there is a problem?"

"These two places ......" Mencius pointed out two problems in the painting, of course, these two places can also be said to be correct, and they seem a little paradoxical.

The shopkeeper Zeng glanced at the place pointed by Meng Zitao, looked at it, and sighed lightly: "Hey, it seems that there is indeed a diǎn wrong." ”

"It's not right!"

Li Shijiang looked at it fixedly, and despised the shopkeeper Zeng in his heart, he thought that this was not a problem at all, but compared with Shen Zhou's previous works, there were some differences, besides, this difference did not deviate from Shen Zhou's special diǎn of the pen, it was just an accidental factor, besides, if the problem was really obvious, would there be Jiaqing's appreciation seal?

Li Shijiang's idea can't be said to be problematic, it's just that he believes in the emperor's level of appreciation too much, just like some people believe in experts now.

In fact, the emperor is also a human being, and he will also make mistakes, let's not talk about Jiaqing, let's just say that in the famous Qianlong Emperor, as we all know, he collected many fakes.

Back then, Huang Gongwang's "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map" volume, which was praised by Zou Zhilin in the Ming Dynasty as "the Orchid Pavilion of the Right Army, God and Saint", as well as more than 10 copies of famous artists in the Ming and Qing dynasties, were repeatedly inscribed by Qianlong as genuine products, and also compiled into the "Shiqu Baoji".

Once, in order to please Qianlong, He Shen used a lot of money to buy the authentic work of "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map" in the private sector and sent it to Qianlong.

So, Qianlong summoned Liang Shizheng, a minister, and pointed to these authentic works and said: "Liang Aiqing, you can identify them, is this an authentic handiwork?"

"Back to the emperor, this ...... This ......" Liang Shizheng looked at the authentic handiwork, and then looked back at the fake, not knowing how to answer, thinking in his heart, if he told the truth, this time the emperor's face would be lost, if he told a lie, then he would offend He Shen, offend a villain like He Shen, and trouble would naturally be indispensable in the future.

The ancients said that the king of Hades was good, and the little ghost was difficult, so he would rather offend the gentleman than the villain. Yes, for your own safety, you can also keep the real thing from being lost, so let's be honest.

"Your Majesty, this ...... This is the real thing......"

Before Qianlong could finish speaking, Qianlong pointed to the "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map" that had already been inscribed and said: "You can show me carefully, where is this scroll painting fake?

Liang Shizheng was restrained, looked up and saw Qianlong's face, that demeanor was to let Liang Shizheng follow his wishes, identify the fake as genuine, and say that the authenticity was a fake.

In that case, Liang Shizheng was thinking about his own life and black yarn hat, and had no choice but to title Huang Gongwang's authentic work as a fake and catalog it in "Shiqu Baoji: Three Editions".

In the final analysis, he is actually just a collector, Jiaqing and many emperors throughout the ages are similar, they can only be called enthusiasts at most, not experts, but because they are emperors, they also have the ability to "refer to the deer as a horse".

Like Li Shijiang, it is obviously not advisable to determine the basis for the Jiaqing Jianzang seal to be genuine.

To get back to the point, Li Shijiang believes that the shopkeeper Zeng also echoed that there was a problem with the painting and that he wanted to fish in troubled waters, which of course could not let the other party succeed, of course, what the shopkeeper Zeng said was also good for him.

So, Li Shijiang said with great regret on the surface: "Ah, the shopkeeper also thinks there is a problem? Then this painting should be an old imitation, but it's a pity, if it is genuine, now Shen Zhou's painting is very hot, if it is auctioned, it is the target of everyone's competition!"

"Yes, if it is genuine, this work will definitely be able to fetch a high price when it is auctioned, and it will be able to make Shopkeeper Meng worry about food and clothing for the rest of his life, what a pity!"

The man standing next to Wang Qianli shook his head and said: "However, even if this painting is an imitation, the artistic level is not low, plus Jiaqing's collection seal, it is also quite artistic, if you can verify who the author is and is a famous artist, the value of this painting is not low." To be honest, I really envy Shopkeeper Meng for being able to pick up such a leak. ”

Meng Zitao waved his hand modestly: "Luck, it's just luck." ”

Wang Qianli said with a smile: "This leakage, one depends on eyesight, the other depends on luck, and the two complement each other." ”

"Yes, yes, shopkeeper Meng, don't be modest......"

After a few compliments, Li Shijiang asked, "Shopkeeper Meng, you just said that you don't have the idea of collecting this painting, right?"

"That's right. Meng Zitao asked, "Do you still have ideas?"

Li Shijiang said sincerely: "I know there are some problems with this painting, but I really like this painting, I will never forget it at first sight, if I miss it today, I will not be able to sleep well during this time......" (To be continued.) )
