Chapter 27 Three Precious Ancient Paintings
Dinner was simple, three dishes and one soup. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Chen Lao and Qiu Lin had dinner quietly! Chen Lao saw that Qiu Lin was absent-minded and thought for a while, then smiled and said, "What does the kid think?" Is it uncomfortable to live here with an old man? â
Qiu Lin hurriedly shook his head: "How can you, how can you treat me like a family member?" â
Chen Lao seemed to smile: "Oh, like family? My family moved out because they felt too uncomfortable living with me, so you mean I'm uncomfortable living here? â
This can frighten Qiu Lin: "No, no, no, I mean it's very comfortable to live, just like living in your own home!" â
Chen Lao laughed: "Okay, I won't tease you!" Don't have any burden, I usually don't have anyone here, I'm very happy to live here, you can live here as your own home! â
Qiu Lin let out a sigh of relief, Old Chen was so kind to him, if he made Old Chen unhappy for his own reasons, then he couldn't forgive himself!
Chen Lao said again: "Come to the capital in the future, unless you have your own house in the capital, you can live here with me, anyway, I am big enough here, if you dare not let me know that I can't bypass you!" â
Qiu Lin knew that Chen Lao's courtyard house was very big and had no idea how big it was, so he heard Chen Feixiong say that it was the mansion of a prince in the past, because Chen Lao was the only one who lived in it, and Chen Lao didn't want to be extravagant and wasteful, so he only opened a courtyard to live, and the other children all had their own houses outside!
Therefore, Qiu Lin also promised that as long as Chen Lao was in the capital in the future, he would definitely live here with Chen Lao!
Seeing that Qiu Lin agreed, Chen Lao was very happy. Qiu Lin remembered that the few paintings he brought back did not let him see the light of day, and hurriedly said to Chen Lao: "Chen Lao, I went to Panjiayuan today and brought back a few things, you can take a look!" â
Chen Lao said: "Okay, go and get it!" â
Qiu Lin took out the three paintings and spread them on the ground in the living room, let Chen Lao see, Chen Lao squatted down to look at the light in the hall, touched the mangosteen picture with his hands, did not speak and then went to look at the second landscape, after reading the third picture, after reading the first time, he glanced at Qiu Lin, and then looked at it again, Chen Lao's face was a little ugly! Qiu Lin watched happily on the side, and when he saw that Chen Lao's face was ugly, he quickly put away his smiling face and pretended to look at it seriously, Chen Lao didn't believe in evil and said, "What kind of medicine did you buy in your kid's gourd?" â
Qiu Lin touched his head: "Why don't I tell you?" â
Chen Lao raised his hand to stop: "I'm not old yet, take a look!" After speaking, Chen Lao took out a magnifying glass out of nowhere and studied it carefully, and this time within a few minutes, Chen Lao raised his head and said, "You kid actually used the truth of darkness under the lamp to test me!" â
Qiu Lin said: "Old Chen, how dare I test you!" â
Chen Lao said: "You haven't seen this kind of painting before, right?" How did you find out! â
Qiu Lin pointed to the breach and said, "Old Chen, have you seen this?" I just saw this and felt that the paper was thicker than average! â
Chen Lao said: "Yes, I just heard us discuss this picture-in-picture in the morning, and I met it in the afternoon, I really don't know if you are lucky or stupid!" â
Qiu Lin laughed twice and didn't talk! Chen Lao said: "Follow me to the study to uncover it and see what kind of painting it is, and it can be covered up by such clever means!" â
"Okay!" Qiu Lin immediately followed Chen Lao into Chen Lao's study with three paintings, of course, Qiu Lin did not forget to bring the wood carvings in the gift box! When he entered Chen Lao's study, Qiu Lin saw that the room was full of books, surrounded by four walls, from the root of the wall to the top of the wall, and the bookcase was full of books! There are also some books piled up in the open space in the middle, and there is a large desk by the window!
Qiu Lin was shocked by the sea of books, this is the real study, this kind of book can only be found in the library, and ordinary bookstores may not have so many books!
Chen Lao hurriedly cleaned up the desk and said, "Quickly put the things on this table, and then go and get the jar in the corner over there!" â
Qiu Lin opened the painting stall according to Chen Lao's instructions, and went to the corner to bring the jar Ling. Chen Lao opened the jar, picked up a brush from the table, dipped this thing from the jar, and evenly applied it to the three paintings, and explained to Qiu Lin: "This is a special potion made by me, which is dedicated to uncovering paintings. It's rare to encounter this life once in a few years, the potion in this jar was made several years ago, and the potion used by ordinary people to uncover the painting must be made fresh, and I also developed this potion that can be preserved for a long time a few years ago, and I use it less! â
Qiu Lin looked at Chen Lao's movements with curious eyes, while listening carefully to Chen Lao's explanation! Chen Lao continued: "It turns out that unveiling the painting is a very laborious and physical thing, and it is a meticulous work, and if you are not careful, you will destroy a national treasure, I am getting older and older, and I am more and more unable to do this work, so I have to think of reducing the steps, and now this potion is smeared, and you can directly uncover it with your hands in half an hour!" â
Qiu Lin felt very amazing, and couldn't help asking, "Old Chen, won't this art of revealing paintings be lost?" â
Chen Lao also sighed and said, "So I didn't pass on this potion, and no one in the outside world knows that I have such a potion, and I don't allow the craftsmanship of my ancestors to be destroyed in my hands!" â
Qiu Lin was impressed by the spirit of Chen Lao, how many ancestral crafts have been replaced by machines, how many excellent skills have been lost in the long river of history, Chen Lao in order to let the ancestral craftsmanship be passed on, Chen Lao has carefully studied himself to reduce many processes and earn countless glorious potions for Chen Lao, you are not a person, this spirit is worthy of admiration!
Chen Lao continued: "Xiao Lin, this is the wealth left to us by our ancestors, I am old, are you willing to learn this technique so that it can continue to be passed on to future generations?" â
Qiu Lin didn't expect Old Chen's topic to change so quickly, and when he heard Old Chen's inquiry, he stammered: "Of course, of course I am willing, Old Chen!" â
"Good! I read you right! Chen Lao laughed a few times with satisfaction: "From tomorrow onwards, you will learn to uncover paintings here!" â
Qiu Lin: "Okay! "Anyway, now that I've quit my job, I just have nothing to do!
Old Chen also nodded happily. In fact, as early as the first encounter in Hongcheng, Chen Lao paid attention to Qiu Lin, and later in the teahouse Qiu Lin's amazing performance to this morning Qiu Lin drew inferences, Chen Lao had already moved the heart of accepting apprentices, but Chen Lao was too old to take the initiative to speak, and Qiu Lin never thought about this, so Chen Lao had to take advantage of this incident to slowly guide Qiu Lin to take the initiative to apprentice!
Waiting for Chen Lao to apply the three paintings with potion, the two sat on the side and waited for the time to pass, and while waiting, Chen Lao kept telling Qiu Lin about some rules in the antique shop, and Qiu Lin asked Chen Lao about some things he didn't understand!
Soon half an hour passed in the conversation between the two. Chen Lao was about to start unveiling the paintings, first of all, Chen Lao was going to unveil the mangosteen diagram, and instructed Qiu Lin to put away the other two paintings first!
I saw that Chen Lao took a knife and gently scratched a hole from a corner, and then picked up a piece of tissue paper little by little with his hands, and Chen Lao carefully slowly lifted it from the corner.
As Chen Lao uncovered this layer of tissue paper, the true face under it was also revealed, Qiu Lin saw an ink-colored bamboo leaping on the paper, Qiu Lin was stunned for a moment, and then looked carefully, it turned out to be a bamboo painting, but the author painted the bamboo too expressively, causing Qiu Lin to see it wrong at first sight!
On the other hand, Chen Lao has been slowly uncovering the painting very steadily, not moved by the real painting unveiled, Qiu Lin secretly admired! After a while, Chen Lao finally peeled off the entire tissue paper on it, which happened to be the mangosteen picture he had seen at the beginning, and Chen Lao threw it aside to carefully appreciate the painting that had just revealed its true face!
Chen Lao looked at the payment and the whole person was shocked, and then Chen Lao took out a magnifying glass to study the whole painting carefully, Qiu Lin also stepped forward to watch, only to see that the payment was Wen and Ke. After looking at the whole painting combined with what Chen Lao had just handed over, Qiu Lin found that the layout of the whole painting was rigorous, and the shades of brush and ink were appropriate, and the overall painting of bamboo was expressive!
Qiu Lin was still immersed in appreciating the ancient paintings with the knowledge he had just learned, and Chen Lao instructed again: "Xiao Lin, bring the other two immediately, and I will uncover them first!" â
Seeing that Chen Lao was so serious, Qiu Lin didn't dare to slack off, and handed over the other two to Chen Lao together, and Chen Lao quickly unveiled the other two. Soon the true colors of the other two paintings were also revealed in front of the two!
Qiu Lin has been studying these three paintings since he saw Chen Lao's paintings, and Qiu Lin also stepped forward to use the ancient painting appreciation knowledge he learned from Chen to appreciate these three paintings, but Qiu Lin's level is really limited, and he only feels that the landscape painting is majestic and magnificent, and the picture of a lady is dignified and elegant, and he really can't see anything else!
Qiu Lin is no stranger to Wen and Ke Fan Zhongli and Qiu Ying's names, until Wen and Ke are the first person to paint bamboo in history, Su Shi's cousin. èäžç«äčæŻććźć±±æ°Žç»ćź¶ïŒć æè””ćé «èŻä»·ć ¶äžșćźæć±±æ°Žç»çŹŹäžäșșçïŒèłäșä»è±æŽæŻć€§ćéĄ¶éĄ¶äžæČćšăæćŸæććäŒŻèćč¶æäžșâæććź¶âăâćŽéšćæ°âă If all three paintings are real...... Qiu Lin didn't dare to think about it!
Even if Qiu Lin is not a person in the antique shop, he knows that any authentic work of these three people can be sold for tens of millions of dollars if it is taken to the auction house! And through the performance of Chen Lao and the hint of aura, it is very likely that these three paintings are authentic!
Thinking about Qiu Lin, he was excited, he spent 300,000 yuan and got a return of more than 100 times, and he became a veritable local tyrant by selling one of them!
While Qiu Lin was thinking nonsense, Chen Lao had already finished his research, and saw Qiu Lin's face flushed and with a smirk, a little dissatisfied, and said, "Xiao Lin! Kobayashi! â
"Ahh Ah......" Qiu Lin heard someone call him back to his senses: "Old Chen, you called me?" â
Chen Lao said: "What are you thinking?" His face was flushed and he was smirking! â
Qiu Lin was a little embarrassed, just thinking about it, he didn't expect to lose his temper in front of Old Chen!
Qiu Lin replied: "Nothing! By the way, Mr. Chen, how are you looking at it? â
Speaking of this, Elder Chen sighed and said, "Hmm! I remember when you went out empty-handed, where did you get these three paintings? â
Qiu Lin said: "That's the case, I ...... yesterday" Qiu Lin told Chen Lao about his experience yesterday, of course, he still didn't say anything about aura, only said that he accidentally found a loophole and bought it back!
