After listening to some of Tang Jinmo's narrations, Fang You felt a little emotional, more than a hundred times stronger than those who sold dog meat on sheep's heads, some people clearly said that they wanted to work hard for the loss of cultural relics, but in fact, they were just gaining a reputation, but Uncle Tang was really giving his all for these lost cultural relics.

During his absence, Tang Jinmo not only copied more than 20 paintings and calligraphy works in the Museum of Small Island Countries, but also gathered many like-minded people to work together.

Each of these paintings and calligraphy is more precious than the two traces of the small island country called the national treasure, the calligraphy work must reveal some of the author's breath, and the painting is more difficult than the calligraphy copying, this is not just according to the painting, the charm of the painting must be deeply understood, before copying.

Otherwise, just by painting a scoop according to the gourd, in the end, it can only become the four unlikes, without a little bit of the original author's breath, even if Fang You's gray airflow is too strong, it will not be able to turn the four unsimilar things into more real existences than the original.

It's like a calligraphy written by a primary school student, and it is impossible for him to use gray air currents to turn it into the work of a calligrapher.

Last time, after auctioning Fujiwara Saori and Ono Michifeng's calligraphy, Fang You wanted to pay some money to Tang Jinmo to express his gratitude, after all, Tang Jinmo spent a lot of effort in order to copy these two pairs of calligraphy, and when he saw Tang Jinmo several times, his face was exhausted.

However, Tang Jinmo refused very righteously and solemnly, he said at the time that he was very satisfied to be able to make such a great contribution to the loss of cultural relics in China, and at the end of his book, if it was for money, he would not have done these things.

At that time, Fang You was deeply moved by Tang Jinmo's feelings, but in the end, he still persuaded Tang Jinmo to accept some money, citing the funds for the loss of cultural relics in China.

Copying is not something that can be done at one time, sometimes it takes a lot of time and energy, including paper, and the same quality rice paper as the original work is very expensive, this is not the common low-grade rice paper, but very high-quality paper, and its price is not cheap.

It can be said that copying a pair of calligraphy and paintings, pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, all have a great deal of exquisiteness, the ink is different, the words written will be different, and in addition to these tools, Tang Jinmo's clothing, food, housing and transportation also need to spend money.

"Uncle Tang, there are people who work so hard for the cultural relics lost in China to return to the motherland, and I believe that in the near future, the cultural relics lost in China will definitely return to the motherland one by one." After listening to Tang Jinmo's narration, Fang You said with a smile.

Tang Jinmo smiled, "Fang Xiaoyou, we can't think about things so far away now, I just want to rely on our own strength to let some cultural relics return to Huaxia, even if it is only a very few, it is meaningful." ”

"Uncle Tang, what you said is very right, all we can do is rely on our own strength." Fang You nodded, very much in agreement.

"Fang Xiaoyou, those calligraphy and painting works that I copied are now at home, when Fang Xiaoyou wants them, just say hello to me." Tang Jinmo said with a smile that he copied these works in the past because he did not have the ability to return these works to the motherland, and he was ready to take the works he copied back to China, so that domestic people could take a look at these precious cultural relics without going abroad, although they were only copied.

However, after meeting Fang You, he was very eager to exchange these copied paintings for the cultural relics lost in China.

"Uncle Tang, tomorrow I will bring those works that are not museums, I will ask people to prepare them, and then they will be auctioned at auction." Hearing Tang Jinmo's words, Fang You thought for a moment, and then said.

Tang Jinmo nodded, he admired Fang You's real skills very much, although the two traces of calligraphy of the small island country he copied, although it can reveal some of the original author's breath, but compared to the original, it is still a little less charming, but it was only a few days after it was handed over to Fang You, and when he took it out again, it was even more real than the real thing, and the two small island national treasures that he copied were put up for auction, and then exchanged for many Chinese antiques, which was the most accomplished thing he felt.

"Uncle Tang, there is a saying, I want to tell you, it is very worthwhile to work hard for the loss of cultural relics in China, but don't forget to find your own world, what you are copying is the cultural embodiment of the ancient people, and if you make your own personality works, this is your own wealth, maybe in the near future, the paintings you make will also become a famous national treasure in China, these two things do not conflict, combined with each other, is the most valuable thing." Fang You said with a smile.

Tang Jinmo's calligraphy and painting skills are very strong, he does not want Tang Jinmo to just copy, but to leave his own spiritual wealth, such as Zhang Daqian and other modern calligraphy and painting writers, his calligraphy and painting works, some of the value even surpasses the works of ancient people.

"Fang Xiaoyou, what you said, I am also working hard, in addition to copying, I will occasionally paint some of my own works, I don't expect my works to become national treasures in the future, I just want to leave something of my own." Tang Jinmo said with a smile.

Fang You suddenly smiled, "Uncle Tang, this dare is good, when the time comes, you take out one or two of your own works, I will let Old Man Chu appreciate it, and then take it to auction, I believe that your own things will not be worse than the ancients." ”

"Fang Xiaoyou, take my painting to the auction, you're not kidding." Tang Jinmo was stunned for a moment, and then said.

"Haha, Uncle Tang, be a little confident, you must know that the price of the small island national treasure you copied is over 100 million." Looking at Tang Jinmo's appearance, Fang You laughed and said.

Tang Jinmo was still a little hesitant, "Fang Xiaoyou, this ......"

"Uncle Tang, don't do this, it's decided, you have to pick out the best work you made." Fang You said with a smile that he also has a very great understanding and perception of antiques such as calligraphy and painting, and with Tang Jinmo's current skills, he is no less than some famous domestic calligraphers and painters.

Coupled with the perception of these years in the small island country, I believe that Tang Jinmo will make unique paintings.

"Fang Xiaoyou, you are chasing ducks to the shelves." Seeing that Fang You didn't let himself refuse, and directly confirmed it, Tang Jinmo suddenly said with a wry smile.

"Uncle Tang, I'm chasing a swan, not a duck, so you can prepare well, take a break these days, don't copy, and choose or make the best work." Fang You said disapprerovingly, he didn't want to see people like Tang Jinmo paying for the cultural relics lost in Huaxia in obscurity, without anyone knowing.

Tang Jinmo smiled helplessly and nodded, "Since Fang Xiaoyou is so gracious, I will try my best to bring out my best level, but when the time comes, I will be embarrassed by Longyou Auction House, don't blame me." ”

"Ahem, ahem, don't worry, Uncle Tang, I've decided to take your work to a charity auction so that there won't be a problem." Fang You coughed twice, and then gloated.

Who knew that Tang Jinmo nodded in agreement, "Fang Xiaoyou, very good, just do this, take my works to the charity auction, and be able to use my works to make some contributions to charity, which is very meaningful, so it's decided." ”

Tang Jinmo's decision couldn't help but make Fang You a little stupid, if he were someone else, I was afraid that he would scold him directly, but Tang Jinmo didn't care.

This gave Fang You a deeper understanding of Tang Jinmo, and the works he worked hard to make could be put into the charity auction without hesitation.

"Fang Xiaoyou, said okay, before you leave the island country, I will prepare my best works, and when the time comes, I must take it to the charity auction, even if the auction price is very low, it doesn't matter, I am very satisfied to be able to contribute to charity with my own hands." Seeing the expression on Fang You's face, Tang Jinmo said with a smile.

Fang You nodded, "Uncle Tang, I remember, on behalf of me personally, I would like to express my gratitude for your contribution to charity." ”

"It's just a small thing, and there's no need to make such a fuss." Tang Jinmo said with a smile.

After talking with Tang Jinmo for a while, Fang You left separately from him, looked at the time, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and he returned to the Longhao Hotel to rest, preparing to take a look at the guqin again tomorrow.

Sleeping in his own big hotel, the feeling is different, Fang You sat in ** and circulated a few circles of gray airflow, and then slowly sank into sleep.

The next morning, after playing Tai Chi and washing, Fang ** went to the hotel restaurant, had breakfast, and then rushed to the base where the Dragon Shadow Tomb Robbery Group was located.

Matsumoto Mingdao and the others didn't seem to leave yesterday, and when Fang You entered the room, several of them were still holding the materials and watching them with relish.

Seeing Fang You, everyone stood up and respectfully shouted Mr. Li, Fang You nodded with a smile, and asked if they didn't understand some of the content on the information.

Suddenly, Matsumoto Mingdao and the others hurriedly nodded, and informed Fang You of some of their doubts, and their faces were full of curiosity.

Hearing their questions, Fang You smiled, from these questions, he could know that they had read the information very carefully, and answered their questions one by one, and suddenly several people showed a look of sudden realization on their faces full of doubt.

Taking advantage of this time, Fang You asked with some curiosity: "Matsumoto, where did you get that guqin in the treasure house in the basement?" ”

"Guqin, oh, Mr. Li, I remember, there is a guqin in the treasure house, that guqin is dug up from the tomb of a general in the former island country, the general is a Meiji person, at that time was very powerful, the tomb built was very prosperous, in one of the tombs, we found this guqin, but this qin was put together with some messy antiques at that time, it does not seem to be the main burial goods, but with our level, we can't know its specific age, so we put it in the treasure house first, I plan to send it to the Longyou Auction House in a few days for people to identify, Mr. Li, is that guqin a treasure? ”

Hearing Fang You's words, Matsumoto Mingdao thought for a while, and then thought about it, this guqin, in his mind, is not particularly precious, but antiques like the piano are very rare, and this piano is well preserved, so he put it into the treasure house first, and then let the Longyou auction house identify it, if it is just an ordinary antique, it will be directly put into the auction for auction.

Fang You nodded, from Matsumoto Mingdao's words, he found some problems, "Matsumoto, I don't know if that guqin is a treasure or not, but its age is very old, from your words, I also found some shortcomings, in addition to the information I gave you, I am going to let you enter the University of Small Island Countries, learn some cultural relics and archaeological knowledge, I don't know if you are willing." ”

These materials alone can only improve their ability a little, and what they lack is not only the tomb, but also the ability to identify antiques.

Some tomb robbers who do not have enough knowledge will often sell good treasures as rags, this kind of thing, which happens from time to time in the antique world, is not a rare thing, just digging pits, that is not a qualified tomb robber at all.

"Mr. Li, we, can we really go to college to learn this knowledge?" Matsumoto Mingdao and the others glanced at each other, and said in disbelief that their knowledge level was only up to Huaxia's high school, and after school, they couldn't find a way, so they followed Kujo Taro until they met Fang You.

In their hearts, they often envy those who are in college, but they know that they may not be able to enter college in their lifetime.

"Of course you can, it's very easy to go to college, don't forget, you are rich now, for rich people, those universities will not refuse, I will deal with these things, I hope you study hard in college." Fang You said with a smile, in the top universities in China, you can go to it with some money, not to mention this more snobbish island country.

Only by letting Matsumoto Akido and his classmates enter the university will they be able to have a stronger foundation and learn more, so that they can realize their dream of stealing all over the world.

"Thank you, Mr. Li, we will definitely study hard and live up to your expectations in the field." When Matsumoto Mingdao and the others heard these words, they immediately stood up and bowed deeply to Fang You.

Fang You smiled, "Okay, let's go and take a look at that guqin now." ”

"Mr. Li, you sit here first, I'll bring the guqin, the treasure house is not a good place to study cultural relics." Matsumoto Akido hurriedly said, there is not even a chair in the treasure house, it is okay to watch it for a while, if you study, it is more appropriate in the living room.

Fang You nodded, "Matsumoto, this guqin is very old, you must be careful to handle it." ”

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I'll be careful." Matsumoto called two more men, and the three of them went to the treasure house together, carefully carried the harp, and placed it on a long table covered with cloth.

In the living room with sunlight, this piano is more clearly displayed in front of everyone than in the treasure house, Fang You launched the escape technique, and in this piano, what is revealed is still the aura full of cyan.

Cyan aura, a color between green and blue, has the brightness of green and the clarity of blue, which can be said to be a very soft color.

This very soft color represents an era that is not peaceful, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, just from the name you can know, it is an era full of wars.

The degree of chaos far exceeded the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and there were as many as seven countries, and finally Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, which ended the dispute and made the land of China unified.

Similarly, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were also an era full of magic, with a splendid culture of a hundred schools of thought, and some magical things were made.

Many of the top ten famous swords were made by swordsmiths in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, among which Ou Yezi was the most famous.

The Warring States Dragon-shaped jade pendant worn by Fang You and Ye Yuqing is a significant proof of this, if it weren't for the aura of these two jade pendants that are always connected, Fang You would not have found Ye Yuqing in the vast sea.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, more than 2,000 years ago, most of the things made in that period have disappeared in the long river of history with the passage of time.

Cultural relics such as calligraphy and painting have been handed down to be said to be a handful, and most of them have been handed down from the Warring States period to the present, most of them are bronze and jade, and other types have completely disappeared due to materials and other reasons.

Especially the wooden guqin, it is extremely difficult to preserve, the guqin in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period can be preserved so well, which also made Fang You a little surprised at that time.

Although this guqin is intact, some of the wood on the guqin is a little broken, but it can be seen that it is a guqin with the style of the Warring States period.

Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, is the root of Chinese culture, among which the guqin occupies an important position in Chinese culture, in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, some literati, including the emperor, are fond of music, which is also from the ancient emperor's tomb, why will excavate a lot of bronze musical instruments, but the guqin and other antiques, but can not be as good as the bronze preservation.

From the famous songs handed down from the Warring States Period, we can know how brilliant the music development was at that time, such as the famous Gao Shui Liushui, Yangchun Baixue and other top ten famous Chinese songs, some of which were composed by musicians or literati in the Warring States Period.

For antiques such as guqin, Fang You has also learned that modern Chinese guqin is basically five-string or seven-string.

It's just that in the Warring States Period, the musical instrument was not fixed, and in some Warring States tombs, the ten-stringed piano was excavated, and according to historical records, in this era, there were also thirty-two strings.

However, according to legend, the guqin was originally five strings, representing the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and the five tones of the outer combination, the palace, Shang, the horn, the sign, and the feather, but in the Shang and Zhou dynasties, King Wen of Zhou was imprisoned, and missed his son Boyi Kao, so as to add a string, which is for the Wen string, and when the King of Wu was killed, add another string, which is for the Wu string, collectively known as the Wenwu lyre.
