Chapter 460: The Immortal Masterpiece "The Wanderer"

…… There are two locks on the camphor wood box, but this is not an obstacle for Liu Dong at all, take out the frost tiger knife given to him by the cheap master, 'click' two knives, the lock fell in response, and when Liu Dong couldn't wait to open the box, the contents made him very excited.

"Sure enough, it's Jiang Zhaohe's immortal masterpiece "Wandering People"!" Liu Dong couldn't help but get excited after opening several rolls of paper wrapped in oiled paper in a row.

Jiang Zhaohe is one of the most transformative artists since the May Fourth Movement, a famous modern Chinese painter and art educator, a professor at the Central Academy of Fine Arts, and an important figure in Xu Beihong's realist painting system. He is known as the grandmaster of modern Chinese ink figure painting in the 20th century, and the only master of modern Chinese painting. It is known as the "Surikov of the East" and "Rembrandt of the East".

His masterpiece "Wandering People", with its unprecedented grandeur and tragedy, reveals the true and benign humanity of the master with its powerful brushstrokes, pours out his anger against war, expresses his call for justice and peace, and establishes a glorious position for modern Chinese ink figure painting in the world art scene.

Today, "Diagram of the Exile" is called a great picture scroll of patriotic realism, and it is called one of the three classics of anti-war and patriotic love during World War II, along with Picasso's "Gornica" and "Atomic Bomb" by Maruki and Maruki Jun!

"Sure enough, it's only half a roll!" took out sheets of rice paper nearly one meter long and 80 centimeters wide from the wooden box. After taking it out and swinging it. Liu Dong said secretly in his heart.

"Diagram of Displaced People" has been full of disasters and disasters since its exhibition. On October 29, 1943, "Wandering People" was renamed "Group Portrait" and exhibited at the Beijingtai Temple, but on the same day, it was censored and banned by the Japanese military police, and the work was torn off the easel.

In 1944, Jiang Zhaohe tried his best to bring "Wandering People" to Shanghai for exhibition, but after the exhibition, the work was forcibly "borrowed" and his whereabouts were unknown.

It wasn't until 1953 when people were tidying up an old warehouse that they found the first half of the "Wandering People's Map" that was already moldy and incomplete, and it was finally restored. In the "Cultural Revolution", it was criticized as anti-communist traitor literature and art.

It was not until 1998 that the first half of "Wandering People", which is 2 meters high and 12 meters long, and is known as "the historical picture scroll of realism in the history of modern Chinese painting", settled down at the National Art Museum of China.

But the whereabouts of the second half of the "Diagram of the Wanderers" have been unknown, and there has been no news for decades, so I didn't expect it to be hidden in the attic of this small villa. And by chance, it fell into the hands of Liu Dong.

"This is really a great luck!" Liu Dong said in infinite surprise.

Although, because of the time of creation, "Wandering People" is not among the top ten famous paintings in China. But its preciousness is no less than any of them, and it is also an indisputable national treasure. Even if Liu Dong only has the second half of the volume in his hand, it is the same as the 'Useless Master Scroll' and the 'Leftover Mountain Map' of "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map", even if it is only half of it, it is also a priceless treasure!

Moreover, the preservation of the second half of the scroll in Liu Dong's hand is much more complete than the first half of the volume in the National Art Museum of China, although like all ancient paintings, there are insect moths and sweat stains, but at least there is no obvious damage.

Because of the environment, Liu Dong did not open all the paper scrolls, but after admiring the three paintings, he cherished the "Wandering People" and put it away, planning to find the best framing master and re-frame it, but this must be a matter for the future!

As for the cardboard boxes full of sketches and color studies around, because there are too many, Liu Dong doesn't have the heart to pick out the works he likes one by one from them, so he directly received all the cardboard boxes to the mustard seed space, and planned to talk about it later.

After finishing this qiē, Liu Dong finally took a look at this not too narrow attic, and made a plan to transform it into a studio in the future, and the two windows on the south side of the attic can also provide enough lighting, and the area of more than 70 square meters is also large enough.

"It's just that it's a little inconvenient to go up and down!" Liu Dong said secretly in his heart after putting away the ladder.

"Forget it, let's talk about it later, go home now!"

……

Early the next morning, after Liu Dong finished practicing, he drove to the largest department store in Quancheng, and then pulled a cart of bed sheets and quilts, as well as pots and pans, and other household utensils, and moved into the villa!

Then, Liu Dong didn't bother to eat, and drove straight to Xizhai.

Fortunately, when he arrived, the door was open, otherwise Liu Dong would really not have been able to enter the door.

"Huh?" Liu Dong frowned, and as soon as he walked through the door, he clearly heard the quarrel upstairs.

"Qingqing, get out of the way, we are here to ask your mother for money, since she has been discharged from the hospital, she should also pay us back?"

"That is, I said that I would repay the money within a year, how long has it been delayed?"

"Qingqing, I know it's not easy for your mother and daughter, but we are not the rich family, and your second aunt's family is also old and young!"

……

As soon as Liu Dong walked up to the second floor, he saw eight or nine middle-aged men and women at a glance, who were talking nonsense in front of Yan Qingqing's house.

When Liu Dong approached, through the gap, he saw at a glance Yan Qingqing, who was pulling the doorknob with his small hand at the moment, with tears on his beautiful face, full of grievances, and stubborn stubbornness in his eyes, pushed around by the people around him, but firmly blocked the door and prevented people from entering.

Liu Dong knew very well why she blocked the door, because she knew that her mother's current physical condition couldn't stand such a big stimulus.

And seeing that his woman was wronged like this, Liu Dong was naturally very distressed!

"Shut up!"

Liu Dong suddenly shouted, like a muffled thunder rolling through the sky. Suppressed all the noise. It also shocked Yan Qingqing's relatives and friends of the philistines!

"Liu Dong!!" looked at the familiar figure and walked in separately from the crowd. Yan Qingqing 'whimpered', like a milk swallow throwing into the forest, threw herself into her lover's arms, and cried.

"Who are you, what are you doing here?" The one who spoke was a middle-aged man in his early thirties, looking at Yan Qingqing lying in Liu Dong's arms and crying bitterly, with a jealous look on his face, which could be seen by a blind person. Obviously, this is another suitor of Yan Qingqing. Although he is a little older.

"I'm her boyfriend. Naturally, I came here to pick her up and take her to my house!"

Liu Dong's words surprised the people around him, it was obvious that this answer was somewhat unexpected to them, and seeing Yan Qingqing's tacit look, it was obvious that this tall and imposing young man was not talking nonsense.

"Since you are Qingqing's boyfriend, then you will pay us back for her!" said a middle-aged woman in a crimson blouse.

She is Yan Qingqing's second aunt, and after hearing that her sister was discharged from the hospital this time, she was the first to run over to ask for an account, for fear that her sister would die. If you don't get your money back. It's just that what she didn't expect was that it wasn't just herself who got the news first.

"It's okay to pay you back. Bring me the IOU first!" Liu Dong said indifferently.

"Liu Dong......!"

Looking at Yan Qingqing's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Liu Dong patted her back with a smile, "It's okay, it's just tens of thousands of yuan left and right!"

"Tens of thousands of dollars? Can you take out tens of thousands of dollars?" At this time, the middle-aged man with a look of jealousy on his face just now said sarcastically.

Hearing his words, the faces of the people around him also showed suspicion, they are all struggling at the bottom of the society for three meals a day busy all day long, 20,000 yuan is basically the family's annual income!

Seeing them like this, Liu Dong didn't explain.

The left and right hands reached into his trouser pockets respectively, and when he pulled out his hand, three stacks in one hand, a total of 60,000 yuan, appeared in Liu Dong's hand! Of course, these money were all used by Liu Dong to store the mustard seed space.

"Sixty thousand is enough, if it's not enough, I still have it in my car below!"

Liu Dong's arrogant expression immediately calmed everyone present, most of them saw for the first time what it was like to put 60,000 yuan together, and the heart-pounding color and thickness immediately softened the attitude of everyone present.

At the beginning, the woman who claimed to be Yan Qingqing's second aunt was the first to take out her IOU, "This is an IOU, look at it!"

"Snort......!"

After taking it and taking a look, Liu Dong tore the IOU to shreds, then tore open a bundle of money, counted two thousand from it and handed it over, "Count!"

"Hey!" The middle-aged woman took the money from Liu Dong's hand with a smile on her face, then dipped some saliva in her mouth, and carefully counted them one by one.

"This is my IOU!"

"And mine!" ......

At this time, seeing that the middle-aged woman got the money, the others could not bear it, and took out the IOUs from their pockets and handed them over, even the middle-aged man who was still jealous just now was no exception.

However, Liu Dong obviously overestimated them, there were a total of nine people before and after, and all the IOUs in his hands added up to only 15,000 yuan!

"Qingqing, you have found a good man, don't forget to invite your second aunt to drink wedding wine when you get married in the future!" After getting the money, the middle-aged woman who claimed to be her second aunt immediately changed her attitude, and the flattering look on her face made Liu Dong sigh that the world was hot and cold!

"Okay, the money owed to you has been paid off, you can go!" Liu Dong did not have any good impression of Yan Qingqing's so-called relatives and friends who fell into the ground.

After listening to Liu Dong's words, the nine people who were suppressed by his wealthy momentum, although they wanted to say something and salvage the embarrassing atmosphere just now, but in the face of Liu Dong, who looked cold, and Yan Qingqing, who didn't look at them, they had to smile wryly, and left downstairs.
