Mu Yuyu saw that Li Yi didn't spit out, and he couldn't say anything more for a while, so he had to smile reluctantly and return the jade plate to him.

Wang Meng looked at He Chong, shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands, and was about to express his incomprehension of Li Yi's behavior, He Chong suddenly said:

"You have also seen it, in addition to the occasional few ancient books in this booth area, there is no painting and calligraphy, so it's better to be like this, let's separate, I and Brother Li are in a group, Brother Wang and Xiao Mu are in a group, and then make an appointment to gather in a certain store that Brother Xi said, I don't know what everyone thinks?"

Saying this actually overturned Wang Meng's initial arrangement, but He Chong looked at the performance of the two just now, especially Mu Yuyu, he really didn't want to go with her anymore, so he directly proposed to separate.

"Oh...... I'm nothing, look at the two of them. ”

Wang Meng was stunned for a moment, and then a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and Li Yi nodded directly,

"It's okay, it's not a delay, not to mention that we don't have much time."

Mu Yuyu saw that everyone's eyes fell on her, so she also nodded, and several people quickly discussed the time of reunion, and then He Chong and Li Yi went straight to the store area, and Wang Meng and the two walked towards the greenhouse not far away.

"Brother Li, what is the origin of your brand just now?"

Although He Chong didn't think about the real Zigang card at all, the performance of Li Yi and Mu Yuyu showed that the brand should be more precious.

"Okay, if I'm not mistaken, this should be a real Zigang card."

"The real Zigang card? Lu Zigang carved it by himself? ”

He Chong gasped, and then a sneer appeared on his face,

"Some people are really thick-skinned, the real Zigang brand, there are not many pieces handed down in total, right? I want to take it away for 5,000 yuan......"

Li Yi snorted twice and directly changed the topic,

"Brother He, let's go directly to the calligraphy and painting shop?"

"Well, let's go directly to the calligraphy and painting shop, I was worried that my study time was relatively short, and I would lose my master if I saw it, but I didn't expect that people's minds were not on this from the beginning, hehe, I'm still too tender."

"Oh, my fair lady, good gentleman, normal."

Li Yi also saw that Wang Meng had some thoughts about Mu Yuyu, but it was none of his business, and he didn't bother to pay attention to it, now that they were separated, it had nothing to do with him.

"If you have the heart, you can't step on us! Also expert ......"

While chatting, the two looked at the stalls in the middle of the street, and kept an eye on the doors of the shops on both sides. Suddenly, they stopped almost at the same time, but each was pointing at a very different goal.

"Brother Li, this main business should be calligraphy and painting...... Hey? What about people? ”

As soon as He Chong turned around, he saw that Li Yi had already squatted down in front of a stall, still holding a piece of porcelain in his hand, he couldn't help blinking his eyes, his heart was full of confusion, didn't he hear that Zhong Haoqing knew ancient porcelain? What is he trying to do?

What caught Li Yi's attention was a blue and white bird food jar. This bird food jar is a small round jar fired together, one large and one small, and the overall shape is like a gourd, and there is a button with holes on the side that looks like a gourd vine.

The bird food jar is glazed and decorated with blue and white entwined branches and leaves, and the blue and white hair color is deep and heavy, which is very similar to the effect of imported green material firing. Moreover, at the mouth of the smaller can, there is still a six-character regular script of "Xuande Year of the Ming Dynasty".

"Boss, how do you sell this?"

"This is a rare object, you look at this shape, this fetus, this glaze, let me tell you, the color of this blue and white is absolutely only Su Ma Liqing can burn this effect!"

"Okay, you said that we will see these ourselves, so don't brag about it, just talk about the price."

He Chong smiled, even if he didn't understand porcelain, he knew how rare a piece of blue and white porcelain from the Xuande period was, so he didn't believe that this would be a real object from the Xuande period.

"This one...... 350,000 bar. ”

The stall owner's eyes looked back and forth on Li Yi and the others a few times, and said a price in a deep voice.

"I'm rubbing! Let's go, let's not waste time here, at this price, people don't want to sell it at all! ”

He Chong laughed angrily, pulled Li Yi, got up and wanted to leave, Li Yi also cooperated with the bird food can to put down, making a posture of wanting to leave.

"Hey, don't worry, the price is negotiable, let's talk about the things first."

"It's like it, but at your price, I can't pay it back."

"You say a price, and if it's suitable, I'll wrap it for you, and it's not open for a day!"

Li Yi groaned and stretched out three fingers,

"This one looks like an imitation from the late Qing Dynasty, so I'll take 30,000, 30,000, and if it's more, we'll take a look at it again."

"It's only 30,000? I can't even get more than that......"

The two of them went back and forth for a while, and finally Li Yi took out five stacks of brand-new hundred-yuan bills from his backpack and bought the bird food jar in his hand.

"Brother, is this really an imitation of the late Qing Dynasty?"

"How can it, if it's really an imitation from the end of the Qing Dynasty, I won't buy it, this is definitely a real guy in the Xuande period."

"The real guy in the Xuande period?"

He Chong muttered and repeated, shaking his head, You said that the jade plate belongs to Lu Zigang, because of Mu Yuyu's reaction, I believe it, but this one, you actually said that it was from the Xuande period...... Are you really that lucky? But even if it's lucky, as soon as you learn calligraphy and painting, this is both ancient jade and ancient porcelain, where did you get this eyesight?

He wanted to persuade Li Yi, but thinking that the relationship between the two was still shallow, he hesitated and decided to give up, although 50,000 is not a small amount, but in case this is really an old imitation, it should not be able to lose anything.

Seeing Li Yi pack up his things, He Chong nodded and took the lead in walking into the shop called Moxiangge next to him.

The shop is quite large, almost 100 square meters in size. In the boxy storefront, there is a counter about 123 meters long on the left, which is full of stationery supplies such as pen and ink seals, and behind the counter, there is a row of containers with various papers.

The two walls on the right side of the store and the one facing the door of the store have no counters, and the walls are full of calligraphy and painting works of various sizes, the most eye-catching of which is a color on paper mirror heart about 3 meters long and 70 cm wide.

Xue Liang is a very influential painter in today's Chinese painting circle, is the representative of the "New Jinling School", his painting art leads the mainstream of contemporary green landscape painting, in the past 20 years, his fine brush landscape works can be said to be unique in the world!

And the most commendable thing is that, unlike those works that are high and low, his works are also very recognized by the market, not only the price is rising every year, but the auction turnover rate is as high as 90%!

This painting is one of his genuine works, and it is also a masterpiece, Li Yi estimates that if he wants to win it, he will have to sell at least more than 9 million.

"Master Xue's paintings, now the highest is 500,000 feet, right? If I can buy this painting, it's okay to increase the value by 10% a year, but unfortunately I don't have that much money, so I'd better honestly look at the others and see if there are any leaks to pick up. ”

He Chong's judgment was similar to Li Yi's, but this painting was too expensive, so even though he knew that he could make a lot of money by buying it and putting it for a few years, he still had to give up.

Li Yi is different, he now just has more than one billion in cash in his hands, and the remaining things such as rubies, gold, wood and other things waiting to be disposed of are worth dozens of billions! With this money, with his current ability, there is no good way to invest at all, but the lack of investment does not mean that he has not considered this aspect of things.

But thinking about it, he can only think that investing in artworks is still somewhat sure, but the specific selection of artworks is also a very deep knowledge, so he has not taken any action, but Xue Liang's works should be able to try.

"Boss, how do you sell this painting?"

"Oh...... Sir, I'm sorry, but this is the treasure of the small shop, and it is not sold. ”

"Why are you hanging out if you don't sell it?"

"Hehe, because the work of the shop is very famous, many people want to see it, so we will display it for a few days every month."

"Oh, and do you have any other good things here?"

"The things in the small shop are here, if you are interested, you can take a look at these pictures here, they are the works of some very influential young and middle-aged painters, the quality is good and the price is not expensive, the most important thing is that the appreciation potential is huge, which is very suitable for investment collection."

Li Yi nodded, the works of young and middle-aged painters can indeed be invested, and he also intends to invest, but before investing, there is still a lot of work to be done, so he will not make a move now.

"Brother, what do you think of this painting?"

"This one?"

Li Yi walked over to take a look and found that He Chong was pointing to a picture of Pan Tianshou's "Cold Fragrance Yellow Chrysanthemum", and couldn't help frowning. It's understandable that the treasures of the town store are occasionally displayed on display, but works like this shouldn't be kept secret?

"This painting should be Master Pan's, but I always feel that it looks a little weird, but I can't tell what's wrong."

Weird? Li Yi leaned in and looked at it carefully, but didn't find anything abnormal, so he smiled and opened the spirit card.

"There's nothing wrong with this painting, but it shouldn't be too cheap...... Damn, this hand is really clever! ”

"What's wrong?"

"If you look closely at this trellis, and these two chrysanthemums...... Well, I suspect that this inscription was also added later. ”

The main picture of this painting is a pot of blooming chrysanthemums placed on a flower stand, and above the picture, there is a large inscription.

Because the branches of the chrysanthemums are lodging, more than a dozen chrysanthemums are concentrated on the left side of the picture, and what Li Yi is talking about are the two chrysanthemums at the very edge.

"These two...... Seems a bit like it was added later? How is this possible? ”

He Chong stared at the chrysanthemum for a long time, and finally found a little different, but he still couldn't believe it.

"Well, this painting should have been accidentally destroyed, although the main part of the painting is still complete, but it is still missing a part, so these two flowers, as well as this flower stand, should have been repainted later."

He Chong let out a long breath of turbidity, and went up to study it for a long time before giving Li Yi a thumbs up,

"How do you tell?"

"I learned framing with my master, so as soon as you reminded me, I noticed that the paper was a little wrong in a few places. If the chrysanthemum and the trellis are not too obvious, then you look here, this crease should be the place of butting, and if you look closely at the paper on both sides, you should be able to see the subtle differences, so I suspect that this inscription is probably not the handwriting of Master Pan, but was added later. ”

"This is simple, check the authenticity of Master Pan on the Internet, and you should be able to see it by comparing the handwriting, but you kid is so powerful, you can see this, I really don't know what else can hide from your eyes."

Li Yi shook his head a little embarrassed, in fact, the judgment given by this painting spirit card is genuine, if it weren't for his habitual perspective and found some unusual problems from the mounting, he really couldn't find it.

"It should be right, you see, although this imitation is very similar, but compared with the real handwriting, it seems stiffer, especially this bright character, you see, Master Pan wrote a strong sense of antiquity, and the traces of this imitation are more obvious, and here, these words ......"

The two of them held their mobile phones, carefully studied the handwriting of the inscription, and shook their heads in unison.

At this time, most people will ignore some details, and the store has taken advantage of this misunderstanding to restore this mutilated painting into a complete work.

It was the first time they had encountered this kind of work, so they got together and studied it for a while, until the boss came to inquire about it, and then they shook their heads and turned to look at the other works.

Soon, Li Yi finished reading all the paintings, and saw that He Chong was still studying the potential works that the boss had just said, so he walked to the counter and began to look at the objects in the counter.

In the counter, all kinds of paints, brushes, and inks occupy about half of the space, in addition, various materials that can be used to make seals also occupy almost two counters, and the rest, one of which has more than a dozen antique inkstones and some ink ingots, and the other inside, there are some pen holders, pen washes, pen holders, etc., which do not seem to be new things.

"Boss, please take out this pen holder and I'll take a look."

Li Yi took a fancy to a bamboo carved pen holder, because he had a string of beads cut by hand by Pu Zhongqian, the founder of the Jinling School, and Zhu Sansong, the grandson of Zhu He, the founder of the Jiading School, and he had also seen the bamboo carving incense pot carved by Feng Xilu, a famous bamboo carver in the Qing Dynasty, during the year-end inspection of Tongruibao, so he was particularly sensitive to this kind of thing.

This pen holder, just looks like it was made by a famous artist of the Jiading faction, as soon as he got started, Li Yi even decided that this eighty percent is also a work of the Feng brothers, although I don't know which one it is, but it is definitely a rare treasure!

This pen holder, the carved picture is a common bangs play toad, its carving is round and exquisite, fine to the hair, it is definitely a masterpiece, but the payment is not the three Feng brothers he guessed, but the three more famous people in the history of the Jiading faction, known as Zhu Ying Zhu Xiaosong, one of the three Zhu of Jiading!

Zhu Ying is a famous calligrapher and painter and bamboo carver in the Ming Dynasty, his father Zhu He is the founder of the Jiading School, in history, people will he, Zhu He and his third son Zhu Zhizheng and called Jiading Sanzhu, they represent the highest level of bamboo carving.

Among the three Zhu in Jiading, Zhu Zhizheng's name is the loudest, Zhu He is slightly inferior, and as for Zhu Ying, it is even worse. But some people also analyzed that the reason why Zhu Ying's reputation is not as loud as his father and son is not because of his poor level, but because later people like to imitate the works of Zhu He and Zhu Zhizheng, so these two people will be more famous.

As for why later generations imitated the works of Zhu He and Zhu Zhizheng more, some people also gave an explanation, that is, Zhu Ying's achievements in calligraphy and painting are too high, so his works are easy to imitate but difficult to imitate, so there are few people who imitate them!

If this statement is true, then Zhu Ying is the most skilled one in Jiading Sanzhu!

Of course, these statements are all the words of a family that Li Yi saw when he visited the forum, and there is no definite evidence, in fact, whether it is Zhu Zhizheng or Zhu Ying, the level of bamboo carving has reached the height of the grandmaster, and because the heirlooms are extremely rare, its value cannot be defined at all, it can be called a priceless treasure!

At present, there are no more than five bamboo carvings of Zhu Ying, which can be confirmed as authentic, but these several pieces have a common feature, that is, they are known for their charm and brilliance like his calligraphy and painting works.

Li Yi carefully observed the picture on the pen holder and determined that this piece should not be imitated by later generations, but a real work by Zhu Ying!

When he opened the spirit identification card, the cool air flashed away, and Li Yi also got the answer he wanted.

"Boss, how do you sell this?"

"This is the work of Shi Qiji, the son of Shi Yu, a famous bamboo carver of the Jiading School in the Qing Dynasty, you see here, it is the traces of deliberate stripping by later generations, if you really want to, 120,000."

Hearing this, Li Yi rolled his eyes, this boss is also attentive, knowing that it is impossible for everyone to believe that this will be Zhu Ying's work, so he pretended to be the name of Shi Qiji, but how did they know that this rhetoric is a snake to add to it!

"Even if it's Shi Qiji's work, this price is a little expensive, so okay, will it be sold for 80,000 yuan?"

"Sir, you see that we are very real, if this piece has to be said to be Zhu Ying's work, it is not impossible to open your mouth to ask for millions of dollars, but we still tell the truth, so you don't have to bargain, in this way, 110,008, a discount of 2,000, what do you think?"

Li Yi thought about it, and directly took out his bank card and handed it over, 110,000 8 is 110,000 8, anyway, the cheap is enough, if something happens because of these two or thirty thousand, it will not be good.

"Brother, what's your eye on again?"

He Chong heard that Li Yi was bargaining with people here, so he hurriedly walked over, picked up the pen holder and looked at it twice, and when he heard that it actually cost 110,000 8, he couldn't help frowning, this pen holder should not exceed 50,000 in his opinion, and the asking price was 110,008, which is too empty!

"Brother, you better take a closer look at this thing, I think it's ......"

Before he finished speaking, he saw the store guy hand over the payment slip and bank card, and he was in a hurry, and couldn't help blurting out,

"Oh, you, how do you spend money in a mess?!" (To be continued.) )
