Chapter 36 "Plum Blossom Roll"

Wang Shimin's calligraphy is a collection of masterpieces, regular scripts and small seals are summed up, and the words follow their own people, with a peaceful mentality, neither humble nor arrogant, so his words will look like people feel a sense of peace and indifference.

Wang Yao used this penmanship to thank such a seemingly rebellious poem, which really has a unique taste.

"Don't leave a mark?" Mr. Ma asked with a smile.

"I don't need to, nobody. Wang Yao grinned.

"The little brother is too modest. The manager recovered from the shock and swallowed his saliva, "Your words, I must put it on display under the original post, which is a model for future generations who love calligraphy, copying to your level." ”

Wang Yao touched his cheek shyly, "You are too flattering, I will write casually." ”

"Mr. Ma, didn't you bring someone to smash the field? Then another old chuckle sounded behind everyone.

"Curator. "The manager hurried to say hello.

Mr. Ma shook hands with the visitor, "Comrade Wu, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"Yes, Jinggangshan has been separated for a few years. "Director Wu, who has white temples and is wearing a tunic suit, is indeed an official.

"Go, are you still revolting?" Mr. Ma scolded with a smile.

Curator Wu smiled and looked at Wang Yao, "Who is this little talent?"

"One of my younger brothers, Wang Yao. Mr. Ma smiled and introduced, "This is Lao Wu." ”

"Hello Curator Wu. Wang Yao greeted respectfully.

"I don't dare to be, I am so honored to witness a rookie in the world of calligraphy and painting. Director Wu said with a smile: "Little brother, a local?"

"Grew up in Hangzhou. Wang Yao smiled.

"I didn't know it was my dereliction of duty to have such a young talent in my jurisdiction. Director Wu sighed.

"Alright, don't be official. Mr. Ma rolled his eyes, "This young talent was hand-picked by Mr. Qigong." ”

Curator Wu's expression suddenly changed, and he looked at Wang Yao in astonishment.

Wang Yao touched his nose in embarrassment, thinking to himself why do these people always like to set relationships?

"Brother. Curator Wu swallowed his saliva and enthusiastically hugged Wang Yao's shoulder, "Let's go, take you to see the treasure of the town hall." ”

"No wonder you crawl so fast, this face. Mr. Ma laughed and scolded behind him.

Curator Wu and Mr. Ma talk like children, which shows that the relationship is close, which makes Wang Yao feel that the two of them are a bit like talking cross talk, and they are very capable of nonsense.

The treasure of the town store that Director Wu said, in a room behind the museum, the room is well lit, the decoration is simple and there is no superfluous decoration, at first glance it is a place for professional inspection of cultural relics, because there are a lot of equipment, there are two old men who are over half a hundred years old, and there is an old man in a long coat who squatted on the hand and took something out of a wooden box.

The old man looked like he had passed his prime, and his spirit was average, but he didn't tremble at all when he held those scrolls, and he really attached great importance to the things in his hands.

The old man took out four painting scrolls from the box, counting which one on the table, there were five in total, all of them were at the level of heavy treasures, and they were well preserved, without much loss.

Hangcheng is located in the south of the Yangtze River, when the Ming Dynasty Jiangnan painting school rose and swept the Dragon Kingdom, with Shen Zhou, Wen Huiming, Tang Bohu, Qiu Ying as the main Wumen four, the Jiangnan retro culture and fashion swayed to the fullest, so that the late Ming Dynasty landscape, flowers and birds, figure painting and so on have a qualitative leap.

The five paintings that the old man took out included Wu Wei's figure scroll, Shen Zhou's flower and bird scroll, Xu Wei's flower and bird scroll, Chen Chun's flower scroll, and a picture of Tang Bohu's lady.

These four great painters are famous, so there are not a lot of paintings that have been handed down, although these paintings are not national treasures, but at least they are also heavy treasures.

Mr. Ma and Director Wu were admiring the paintings while chatting with the old gentleman.

The old gentleman's surname is Shen, after the decline of the famous family, the ancestors had been in the Qing court onlookers, and collected a lot of famous paintings that year, but unfortunately they were burned down a lot when they were broken four olds, and in recent years, they have been donated to museums all over the country.

The old gentleman is already seventy-six years old, and he is afraid that his children and grandchildren will spoil these national treasures, so he will donate them all in batches.

These paintings, each of which is priceless, but the old gentleman only needs a few pennants and a bonus of several hundred yuan, not that the old gentleman's family is rich, although the old gentleman's family can donate it, but the old gentleman wants to make these paintings in a more meaningful place for future generations to admire.

In this way, it is not in vain that his ancestors have survived these painters.

The old gentleman caressed each scroll with great caresse, and the paintings were framed and maintained by him as if they were his children.

When the old gentleman talks about these paintings, his tone is not wavering, it can be seen that his bearing is really extraordinary, at least this enlightenment is not comparable to ordinary people.

After Wang Yao looked around twice, his eyes were on the box, there was still a volume in it, Wang Yao looked at Mr. Shen and was a little curious about what this last one was.

"Old Shen, what is this painting?" asked Director Wu for Wang Yao.

"It's a remnant. Shen Lao looked at the painting scroll in the box, took it out, untied the ribbon and spread it on the table, "When I saw it, it was already like this, and it couldn't be repaired." ”

It was a scroll of paintings.

Both rolls and scrolls are a form of mounting.

The roll is a banner, generally not more than 50cm wide, the length is not limited, look from right to left when watching, and roll up again after watching, similar to the movement of a movie lens.

The shaft is the opposite, which is tiled vertically or hung up.

This scroll is about 40cm wide, and the length of Wang Yao should be more than two meters.

Shen Lao unfolded it gently, and the yellowed scrolls and the ink soaked in the heart of the paper all carried a precipitate of time, not because the painting was old, but because of a maintenance error.

Judging from the color of the ink, this painting should not be as old as the previous five paintings, that is, paintings less than 300 years old, but due to improper maintenance, the scroll surface is damaged in a large area, and there are traces of decay wormholes and the like.

The pattern is broken, but it is vaguely recognizable that it is a flower and a plum blossom.

"It's a pity. Mr. Ma looked at the damage of the scroll and his face was full of regret.

Curator Wu and the other two appraisers leaned over to take a closer look with a magnifying glass, and finally shook their heads.

"The painting has been cut, and the original size may be wider. One of the appraisers said.

"It's so damaged that it's hard to tell it's the handiwork of that person. Curator Wu sighed and said, "What is Elder Shen going to do?"

"Keep it as a thought, I'll study it slowly, and if I study it before I die, I'll give it again, or I'll put it at the bottom of the box if I leave it here with you. Shen Lao smiled.

Curator Wu's face was embarrassed, the damage has reached this level, almost seventy percent, and the paintings that have been cut, the restoration project is too large, and there is no slightest research, this kind of cultural relics for the current cultural relics of the Dragon Kingdom, can really only press the bottom of the box first, and when the future matures, there may be a chance to restore it.

Although there are hundreds of state-owned museums and hundreds of thousands of exhibits in the country, there are still seven-figure cultural relics immersed in various important warehouses, because there are too few talents in related industries.

Not to mention restoration, even the talents who have researched it can't finish these cultural relics without eating or drinking for a hundred years every day, so they can only pick the important cultural relics recorded in the official history to verify and restore them first, which is also a helpless thing.

After all, there are few talents in archaeology in China, and there are even fewer majors such as calligraphy and painting restoration, and the restoration of this work requires not only technology, but also patience.

Curator Wu smiled awkwardly, Shen Lao smiled open-mindedly, everyone understands people and knows that this thing is a treasure, but it is a chicken baby.

Although Mr. Ma was distressed, after all, this thing was not something he could touch, and he didn't want to cause this trouble, but Wang Yao was a little curious, and approached and asked, "Sir, can you show me?"

Shen Lao glanced at Wang Yao, his expression seemed to be a little displeased, Mr. Ma and Director Wu are both knowledgeable people, and they are in the same generation, Wang Yao, a junior, raised this question, which really made him feel a little inappropriate, but he still nodded After all, it was Mr. Ma who brought it.

"Do you know?" said Director Wu raised his eyebrows slightly.

Wang Yao shook his head and looked at the painting himself with a magnifying glass, and there was a rotten smell on the paper.

'Host discovers Plum Blossom Roll' Qing, Jin Nong, Trigger Mission: Repair (29/100)'

The system really gave a hint, after entering the museum, the system kept prompting every cultural relic, except for a few that were not of sufficient level or unknown origin, Wang Yao collected almost all the cultural relics in the museum.

This pair is no exception, as long as it reaches a certain quality, the system will automatically trigger it, but Wang Yao triggered the task this time.

Except for the corner of the seal in the lower left corner, there is not a single word in the whole scroll, and there is no way to verify it, but after the system prompted, Wang Yao woke up a little.

Painters of the past dynasties painted a lot of flowers, especially the painting of the four gentlemen and the three friends of the year, plum blossoms as the four gentlemen and three friends, the hands of the ten famous flowers of the Dragon Kingdom, naturally can not escape the brush of these coquettish literati.

Therefore, the scope of this author is too wide, and it does not exclude some folk masters Song Huizong Zhao Ji's plum branch, Zhongren's ink plum, Wang Mian's young bud plum, and Chen Laolian's old plum are all self-contained.

Literati painting calligraphy and painting are not separated, so many painters also carry calligraphy in their paintings, from this picture scroll, you can also see calligraphy, but it is a kind of calligraphy that Wang Yao does not know very well, after the calligraphy breaks through the intermediate, Wang Yao is basically proficient in several categories of fonts, but the font contained in this painting, Wang Yao did not understand.

Now he understands that this is Jin Nong's self-created 'lacquer book', which is extremely unpopular, and it is mixed with stone carvings and Zen, no wonder these plums look like four things. (To be continued.) )
