The thing was in front of his eyes, but Boss Jiang couldn't get it, and when he thought that millions of big business had flown off, he was so distressed that his face was tangled, and he sighed in the face of this big piece of wood.

I have to say that this is indeed a treasure in the field of wood carving technology, the Zhu family and his wife took a closer look and felt that it was lifelike, almost perfectly showing the image of Tokyo Bianliang in the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Different from the ink paintings of tiling, the wood carvings have a three-dimensional effect, whether it is houses, people, restaurant signs, trees, small bridges and flowing water, etc., a large number of human scenes are concentrated on the whole wood.

It's no wonder that people are willing to pay a high price to buy it, and when he really saw the real thing, Boss Jiang understood why Master Bao was reluctant to sell it, and the price people gave was still too little, so little that he would rather donate it to the National Art Museum to make a good name for himself, rather than sell it cheaply and spoil things.

The fame it gets in exchange for can bring more benefits in the future, and I have to say that the old man who looks honest is indeed very far-sighted.

Unlike others, the wood carving scene in front of him seemed strange to Li Junhao, but he couldn't tell what was strange, and he always felt a little different from the "Qingming Riverside Picture" he saw at the beginning, and asked at this moment: "Is this thing completely carved according to the scene in that painting?"

Boss Jiang was distressed and annoyed, annoyed that he had heard the news that someone had carved the "Qingming Riverside Map" two years ago, but he didn't care, and gave away a piece of big fat meat that could be used in his hands.

replied to Li Junhao: "Can this be fake?"

It is said that Master Bao visited the museum for four whole months, and because he could not bring a camera, he drew all the details of the painting in a notebook, and finally pondered for more than half a year before he dared to do anything on this piece of wood, even if the carved expressions of the characters were the same as the original painting. ”

"Oh, that's ......"

Li Junhao nodded, his eyes swept to the piece of wood again, and suddenly he saw something, and then looked back, and when he saw the name of a certain store, his eyes suddenly widened, and his eyes became extremely exciting.

Because...... On the corner of a street, he actually saw the words "Li's Salt Merchant"! This is the salt selling shops that his family has spread all over Dongcheng County after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty!

Before the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the Li family did not sell salt at all, and the image of the cloth signboard hanging outside the store was clearly his family's shop!

I suddenly understood why I thought it looked weird, because this was the fake that Li Junhao copied according to the original painting when he copied the original painting when he copied the original painting of "The Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival"!

The carving work is being built in the Hua Man Building, the shop on the corner of the street is really the Li family's shop, the owner of the Hua Man Lou is a fat round outside, he and the Li family are world friends, and Li Liuxian was also painted into this painting.

The style is still the style of "Qingming Riverside Picture", but many details have been changed by him without authorization, when he saw those familiar scenes, Li Junhao's mind was blank, and then all kinds of distant memories came flooding in, the wood carving works in front of him were no longer dead things, and many characters and scenes seemed to have become real......

*****************************

Li Junhao still remembers that day.

In February of the twenty-second year of Hongwu, there is always endless rain in the sky, not long after the king of Yan just waved his army to the north, the east city was shrouded in a shadow of imminent war, but everyone in the city seemed to have confidence, the Ming Dynasty was just established not long ago, and the vast majority of people believed that this time it would be a great victory.

The war has nothing to do with scholars, Li Liuxian, who is known as the first genius of Dongcheng County, has just visited Mr. and asked some questions about the next palace exam.

Before this, he had already connected two yuan, namely Xie Yuan and Hui Yuan, if he could get the champion again, it would mean that even the three yuan, after the establishment of the new dynasty, no one could get this honor, whether they knew or not, they all heard of Li Liuxian's name, and even the vegetable seller in the market was no exception.

After braving the light rain to go home, he happened to meet his father who came back with a painting, and learned that it was the original "Qingming Riverside Picture" that he had just bought, so he smiled and begged to come, saying that he would return it to him after appreciating it.

As his favorite son, his father agreed with a smile, but told not to get damp, Li Junhao was still an ordinary person at the time, and the scholar returned to the door of his courtyard with an umbrella, and happened to meet Steward Liu, who came out to look for a cat, and returned to his study after saying hello with a smile.

After appreciating this painting, I suddenly came to copy it, and happened to have a few pieces of exquisite silk paper from the Northern Song Dynasty, so I simply asked the scholar to help cut it according to the style of "Qingming Riverside Picture", and found a few ancient ink to study ink, because the color of the ink ingot was wrong, it took two days to prepare the pen.

Halfway through the painting, the county lord of Nanping, who happened to come out to play in the name of the interrogator, came to the Li Mansion again as a guest, she was a good girl with outstanding appearance and gentle personality, and saw Li Junhao copying, and asked with a smile why he didn't paint a Ming version of the "Qingming Riverside Map".

In order to win the smile of the beauty, he really began to mess around, while painting, he introduced the shopkeeper, the servant, the porter, the groom, etc., and integrated their images into his painting.

If you haven't seen the original painting, you can even use the radish to engrave it, imitate the seals of many famous people in the previous two hundred years, use different years of ink to cover it, and learn from their handwriting to leave inscriptions.

This is just a joke between the men and women who are about to get engaged after the palace test, in fact, it was very popular in the literati world to imitate the works of their predecessors, and then jump out to expose them after waiting for their eyes to be exposed.

All afternoon, the two of them were tired of preparing this copy work in the study, just thinking it was interesting, one of the seals was even carved out of radish by the lord of Nanping himself, Li Junhao even remembered that after she finished it, her smiling eyes looked very accomplished and cute.

All kinds of thoughts came like a tide, staring at a certain seal that was also engraved on the wood, unconsciously reaching out and gently stroking it, this action made everyone else around them dumbfounded, and even forgot to remind him, only Li Junhao himself was unaware.

A heart that seemed to have been dead for hundreds of years stabbed him fiercely at this time, and the hand that touched the seal was like touching the face of the county lord of Nanping who made him flee quickly before he died.

That feels...... It's really painful......

The sound and appearance seemed to be right in front of him, and just when Li Junhao felt that he was about to touch her face, Boss Jiang, who was afraid of breaking things, shouted: "What are you doing!"

His thoughts were interrupted instantly, and a pair of eyes without any emotion immediately glared at him, and when he saw Li Junhao's eyes, Boss Jiang felt a chill in his back, and he almost fell down without standing firm......
