Chapter 336: Priceless Treasure

……

After driving all the way back to Taoyuanju in Panjiayuan, and taking Wang Sen to the backyard and entering the house, Wang Zheng couldn't wait to take out the purchased Li Keran's "Landscape Vertical Scroll", and said expectantly: "Wang Sen, now back to our own territory, what is the secret of this painting, can you say it?"

"Boss, I'm not sure if we can hit a big leak, but this painting must have a hidden mystery!" After organizing the language, Wang Sen said seriously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After nodding his head clearly, "How do you know?"

Although cyborgs are magical, they are all flesh-and-blood real people created by the system in the end, and there are no things like those spells and supernatural powers mentioned in fantasy novels, let alone any perspective eyes.

Wang Sen didn't rush to answer, but took the scroll in his hand and weighed it, and said with a smile: "The weight is wrong!"

"Portions?"

Wang Zheng took it and put it in his hand and checked it. Except that it felt a little overwhelming, I didn't notice anything at all.

Wang Sen smiled when he saw this, "Boss, this can be regarded as a little talent or experience that I brought from my innateness." ”

"Talent?experience?"

"Yes, I can estimate the approximate weight of any antique based on its size and material. If it is less or more than that, I can feel it even if it's a few grams. ”

"I see!" Wang Zheng nodded.

Wang Sen's statement is not very difficult to understand. Just like cooking, after doing one thing for a long time, practice makes perfect, and he will naturally be able to master some abilities that are unbelievable to outsiders. Just like an old carpenter, you can see the length, weight and material of wood at a glance. The old farmer in the field, grasping a handful of soil, can determine the fertility and moisture of the land, and what kind of farmer is suitable for planting. Old fur seals, who have been at sea all year round, can determine the weather at sea the next day, or even the week ahead, just by the direction of the wind and the currents.

These are the abilities that have accumulated experience, and Wang Sen is the same now. However, he is more of an industry talent given by the system. After all, Wang Zheng replaced it from the system, and it was only less than half a year.

Wang Zheng looked at the scroll in his hand and weighed it again, but after still not gaining anything, he simply gave up. He doesn't have Wang Sen's talent, let alone the experience he has accumulated after a lifetime of engaging in antique appraisal. Not to mention a few grams, even a few tens of grams, he may not necessarily notice anything unusual.

"Then the weight of this painting has become larger?" Wang Zheng said.

"Yes, at least nearly two-thirds of the weight is greater than normal!"

"Two-thirds?" Wang Zheng's tone was full of disappointment. The painting is not heavy in the first place, and two-thirds of it can hide something!

"Hehe, boss, two-thirds is already a lot. It must be known that half of the weight of a painting is on the pole of heaven and earth, and half of the remaining half must be taken up by the back, and the weight that really belongs to the heart of the painting is only a quarter of the weight in a painting!"

"So there's something amazing hidden in this painting?" Wang Zheng said in surprise.

"I have to take it apart!"

"Then what are you waiting for, take it apart!" Wang Zheng rubbed his hands. What could be more exciting than picking up a big leak!

It is that everyone wants to make a profit, and picking up a big leak and digging out a big baby is to make a big bargain, and this kind of unearned benefit can arouse people's excited nerves the most.

After nodding, Wang Sen took the scroll and walked into the study next to the hall, where there was a long mahogany table with a length of three meters and a width of eighty centimeters near the window. On the thick tabletop is a magnifying glass of various specifications, as well as some identification utensils made by Wang Sen. It's dazzling and dazzling.

watched Wang Sen spread Li Keran's "Landscape Vertical Scroll" on the table, and after a brief look, he began to spray the whole painting with a watering can.

Whether the calligraphy and painting are framed or disassembled, they are very exquisite. Many framing masters have their own unique skills. Of course, Wang Sen also has his own outstanding craftsmanship.

After letting the water soak the whole painting, Wang Sen took a cup of hot water from the water dispenser, mixed it with cold water, controlled the temperature at about 36 degrees, dipped it with a small brush, and carefully brushed it on the edge of the calligraphy and painting edge and back.

Wang Zheng stood silently beside him and watched him, dismantling the heaven and earth pole, the rice paper on his belly, and the inlaid silk little by little.

"Sure enough, there's something!"

Looking at Wang Sen's unveiling of the heart of the flower, a touch of 'Buddhist scripture paper'-like old yellow was revealed underneath, Wang Zheng's heart became excited.

"Boss, please go to the front shop and get a wooden board of more than two square meters. The painting we took off needs to be properly preserved!"

"Okay, I'll go get it right away, you wait a minute!"

Although he really wanted to see what that old yellow thing was, Li Keran's "Landscape Standing Scroll" worth more than 10 million yuan could not make the slightest mistake.

With Wang Qian, the two quickly took a wooden board from the shop in front that met Wang Sen's requirements.

In front of him, Wang Sen cleaned up the wooden board, and then sprayed some water to fully soak the surface before pasting the heart of the "Landscape Vertical Scroll" that was removed. In order to avoid the inevitable damage caused by uneven drying and wetting of the painting center, the painting should be reframed at this time. However, compared with framed paintings, Wang Sen at this time, like Wang Zheng, wanted to know what secrets this painting hid most.

Therefore, I first used a layer of plastic wrap to cover the center of the painting and put it aside for the time being.

Removed the original used to cover up the landscape vertical scroll painting heart and back, a length of 90 centimeters, about 50 centimeters wide, a small amount of gray mildew spots distributed on the surface, but generally old yellow, flat like paper-like things appeared in front of Wang Zheng and several people.

"It's a monofilament!!"

Looking at Wang Sen, who was calm just now, with a stunned and unbelievable expression, although Wang Zheng didn't understand what the monofilament silk represented, he also had a faint feeling of picking up a treasure in his heart.

"What is monofilament silk?" Wang Gan on the side asked the doubts in Wang Zheng's heart.

"Boss, silk is a kind of silk, and silk can be subdivided into 14 categories: yarn, Luo, silk, silk, spinning, silk, crepe, brocade, silk, kudzu, wool, velvet and silk. Some varieties of silk were used in ancient times to copy poems, paintings, record documents, and write scriptures. The earliest silk painting in China is currently the Eight Horses of King Mu of Zhou, which is the first silk painting to be recorded. ”

Silk is divided into single and double, raw and cooked, round and flat, and thick. The single warp and single weft are called "single silk silk", and the double warp and single weft are called "double silk silk"; raw silk is unbleached silk, strong water absorption, and cooked silk is processed by practice bleaching, and the water repellency is good. ”

In addition, the silk and paper used in calligraphy and painting play a certain role in the dating of calligraphy and painting. Generally speaking, before the Tang Dynasty, silk was mostly used for painting, and even murals were often painted on silk, and since the Tang Dynasty, paper has been mostly used. In the previous collection of calligraphy and painting in the Jin and Tang dynasties, all of them were monofilament silk, and so far there has never been a case of double silk. The silk from the Five Dynasties to the Southern Song Dynasty has further developed and changed compared with the previous generation, and in addition to the single silk silk, the structural form of double silk has also appeared. The warp threads of this double silk are in a group of two, and there is a gap of about one between each two groups, and the weft threads are monofilaments, and when the warp and weft warp are intertwined, one of the warp threads in each group sinks underneath and the other floats on top. The use of double silk was mostly seen in the Ming Dynasty, and in the Qing Dynasty, the warp and weft were monofilaments, and the double filaments of the previous dynasties almost ceased to exist. ”

"Conventionally, the change in silk color should be the darker the age, the farther away it is. But not necessarily, because the quality of the silk is high and low, the state of preservation is good or bad. Some of the silk books are as old as new, and some of them are as shallow and old as ....... ”

"Stop, stop, ......!" Seeing Wang Sen's excited expression and endless words, Wang Zheng interrupted him with a headache, "When it comes to popularizing knowledge, I'll go back and find a book to read for myself." Now, shall we take a look at what it is?"

"Okay!" Wang Sen nodded a little unsatisfactorily before focusing his gaze on the silk cloth in front of him.

"Is this a raw silk?"

"Silk?" Seeing that Wang Sen, who had just calmed down, was excited again, Wang Zheng hurriedly asked.

"Before the early Tang Dynasty, calligraphy and painting were all made of raw silk!"

Wang Sen's words made Wang Zheng stunned. But soon he reacted, and said in an excited tone: "What do you mean, this is a painting and calligraphy before the early Tang Dynasty?"

"Before the early Tang Dynasty, this is the early Tang Dynasty!" Wang Zheng's inner thoughts churned like boiling water.

It's no wonder that he is like this, let alone the early Tang Dynasty, even if it is the Middle Tang Dynasty, the Later Tang Dynasty, or the calligraphy and paintings of the five dynasties ranked further behind, he doesn't have a single one in his hand!

"Look, what is this calligraphy and painting?" After Wang Sen nodded, Wang Zheng hurriedly said.

In fact, Wang Sen's mood at this time was more urgent than Wang Zheng's, after all, he really liked the collection and appraisal of antiques.

However, professional limitations, the more times like this, the calmer Wang Sen's heart becomes. After taking a few breaths, Wang Sen stretched out his hands, first twisted the corner of the raw silk with tweezers, and then uncovered it little by little.

"It's not a layer!"

After looking at the uncovering, there was still an old yellow monofilament silk underneath, and Wang Zheng knew it in his heart. The weight of silk is very light and thin. If it was just a layer of silk, it would definitely not make Wang Sen feel such an obvious change in weight.

"What are these words?"

Pointing to the five pen walking dragons and snakes exposed on the edge of the freshly uncovered raw silk, with complex strokes and strange black fonts, Wang Zheng asked.

"This is Xiao Seal!"

"Xiao Seal, Xiao Seal of the Qin and Han dynasties, then this painting is ......!"

"No, it's not the Qin and Han dynasties, but the handwriting of famous masters in the Northern and Southern Dynasties!" Wang Sen said excitedly.

"The Northern and Southern Dynasties, the Northern and Southern Dynasties are long enough!" After dispelling the small regret in his heart, "These five words are the name of this painting?"

Wang Zheng didn't know Xiao Zhen.

"Hmm!" Wang Sen nodded vigorously, and then explained, "Manjushri Spirit Diagram, Southern Dynasty famous artist Lu Tanwei's Manjushri Spirit Diagram!"

"Lu Tanwei, who is known as the 'Three Masters of the Southern Dynasties' along with Zhang Seng and Gu Kaizhi, plus Wu Daozi of the Tang Dynasty, and is respected by later generations as the 'Four Groups of Painters'?"

"It's him!" Wang Sen nodded again with an excited expression.

"Oh my God!"

After half an exclamation, Wang Zheng 'snapped', clapped his hands with his hands, and his words were full of excitement, "Made, now you can pick up a super big leak and make a fortune!"

This is Lu Tanwei, a super cowman at the ancestral level of the painting world 1,500 years ago. Moreover, to this day, none of his works have been handed down to posterity, not even facsimiles.

What does this mean? Wang Zheng knew it all too well.

Immeasurable money, unimaginable accolades, and incredibly super attractive!

"It's truly priceless!"

Wang Zheng looked at the picture scroll that was gradually unveiled in Wang Sen's hands with bright eyes. He believes that as long as this painting is born, it will indisputably replace the Song Dynasty copy of Gu Kaizhi's "Luo Shen Futu" of the Eastern Jin Dynasty preserved in the Palace Museum, and become the top ten famous paintings in China!

"Boss, this painting is too long, this table can't fit!"

"Qianzi, you go outside and bring another table in!" Wang Zheng said without hesitation.

After Wang Qian went out, Wang Zheng and Wang Sen moved the long table to the main court of the hall, which was spacious enough.

After being busy, on the table that was spliced together for almost six meters, this huge work, which was 587 centimeters long and 49 centimeters wide, was measured by Wang Sen and presented in the eyes of Wang Zheng and several people.
