Chapter 39: Fasting, Commenting on Paintings
"Mr. walk slowly, call ...... if you have something"
Half an hour later, under the middle-aged man's respect, Qi Xiang left the sales center. He looks calm and breezy on the surface, but in fact, his heart is dripping blood.
"Impulsive, too impulsive, slap a swollen face and become fat." Qi Xiang sighed in his heart, but he didn't have much remorse. After all, this time is different from the past, and he has confidence......
Qi Xiang was calm, and walked two steps under the welcome of the middle-aged man, and suddenly his figure froze, and he said casually: "By the way, that person just now...... The next time I come over, I don't want to see him again. ”
"Huh?" The middle-aged man was taken aback, and then said with a smile: "Don't worry, I know how to do it, and I will definitely satisfy you......"
The middle-aged man did not feel strange at all about Qi Xiang's retribution, on the contrary, he was even more sure that Qi Xiang was a rich second generation. Narrow-mindedness, wanting face, and revenge will be avenged, these are all common diseases of the rich second generation, which is normal.
Besides, with that security guard, the middle-aged man didn't feel any guilt. After all, in the final analysis, this is also a disaster caused by the security guard.
Whoever is in trouble and who is responsible is fair and reasonable, isn't it?
The middle-aged man smiled and helped Qi Xiang recruit a car, took the first step to open the car door, and when Qi Xiang got into the car and sat down, he slowly closed the car door, and watched the car leave and disappear, before reluctantly returning to the sales center.
No one is able to do this now, no wonder they are managers......
In the car, the driver asked, "Sir, where are you going?" ”
Qi Xiang thought for a moment and instructed: "Antique market!" ”
He thought about it and felt that it was better to start with the bank to make money quickly. The most important thing is that the money comes from a clean source, can withstand investigation, and will not have any consequences. Otherwise, he really wanted to fly to Macau immediately.
The antique market in Huzhou is located near the Fumiao between Renmin Road and North Street.
The so-called temple actually refers to the temple of the city god.
The City God Temple in Huzhou has a very long history. According to historical data, it was built in the period of the Five Dynasties, after thousands of years of wind and rain, repeatedly destroyed and built, and has been inherited to this day.
The temple in Huzhou, similar to the Confucius Temple in Jinling, is also a place of entertainment in addition to religious sacrifices. In ancient times, the temple continued to have the drama, juggling, magic and other artists who walked the rivers and lakes all year round to perform here, and there were also astrological divination, fortune-telling and fortune-telling of the gods and lakes who were abducted and deceived.
In modern times, the renovated temple is a collection of tourism, shopping, entertainment and leisure, which is very lively and prosperous. Huzhou's antique market is borrowing the light of the temple to attract enough popularity before it slowly took shape.
Soon after, the car stopped near the temple.
After Qi Xiang got off the bus, he walked slowly to the antique market. It is also necessary to admit that this antique market is not large, but it is very lively, bustling with people, gathering and converging.
"What's the situation?" Qi Xiang felt a little surprised, because in his impression, the antique market has never been very lively, and sometimes it is even deserted.
What's going on today, one by one, as if they have been beaten with chicken blood, their faces are full of red light, and they are very excited.
Qi Xiang was surprised, but also carefully observed and paid attention.
Soon, he found out that the lively flow of people, it was heading towards the same place.
It was a very large and spacious shop. It's like a department store, with three or four stores connected together, and it looks very magnificent.
At this moment, the shop was full of people, gongs and drums, and firecrackers, as if it was holding an opening ceremony.
Qi Xiang followed the rolling flow of people, walked to the side of the store, and was stunned.
I saw a gold-lettered signboard hanging above the store.
The two gilded characters are vigorous and self-contained, which is very eye-catching.
"Fasting!"
At first glance, Qi Xiang was inevitably a little surprised. As an industry insider, he knows it very well. This signboard name should not be used indiscriminately, because as early as a hundred years ago, someone used this hall name.
Even those who have a heart can also find a book called Xuzhai Famous Painting Catalogue in some bookstores.
To put it bluntly, Xuzhai is a more famous hall name. Under normal circumstances, when you choose a signboard name, you will definitely pay attention to avoid this famous hall name, which is a kind of respect for the ancients.
Of course, if you are shallow and don't realize that the name you chose coincides with the ancient hall number, it is understandable.
The problem is that Qi Xiang knows very well that this is impossible.
Because of the famous Xuzhai, a hundred years ago, it stood in the territory of Huzhou. It was the number of the famous collector Pang Laichen during the Republic of China.
Pang Laichen, the name Yuanji, the word Laichen, the number Xuzhai.
In the late Qing Dynasty, there was a proverb circulating in Huzhou. Huzhou is a city, less than half a town in Nanxun. The Pang family is a huge rich man in Nanxun, Huzhou, and is known as the four elephants of Nanxun.
Nanxun is undoubtedly a legend in China's modern history, relying on the wealth of cultivation and mulberry to the lake silk all over the world, Xun merchants with silk industry almost accompanied by the rise of modern industry. A small town, a giant gentry, rich in the world, so that the folk have four elephants and eight cows, and the body of an animal is compared to the huge property of the merchants.
It's also a habit to be rich and easy to hide.
Pang Laichen has financial resources and is good at connoisseurship, and has a collection of bronze, porcelain, calligraphy and painting, jade and other cultural relics, especially calligraphy and painting. He carefully collected the paintings and treasures of the Tang Dynasty, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, and specially built an attic for storage, and named it Xuzhai.
In the heyday of Xuzhai, it has thousands of famous paintings and calligraphy, which is the highest private in the country.
Slightly more conservative, it is definitely a collection of A in the southeast.
However, during the Republic of China, due to the uncertain situation, some of the collections of Xuzhai were inevitably lost due to various reasons. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the descendants of the Pang family donated the Xuzhai collection to museums around the country.
From that time on, Xuzhai also existed in name only and withdrew from the stage of history.
Although Xuzhai no longer exists, as a famous local hall, there is no reason for the locals not to know, and this signboard is hanging out in a grand manner, is there no one to advise and stop it?
Qi Xiang couldn't help but shake his head, secretly sighing that the world is declining, and people's hearts are not ancient. He skimmed the signboard and looked inside, but saw rows of counters and shelves in the store.
The counters and shelves are orderly calligraphy and paintings.
"Huh?"
Qi Xiang was also surprised when he saw it. Unexpectedly, this virtual fast turned out to be a calligraphy and painting shop.
At this time, in the store, it seems that there is a lottery. It seems that as long as you buy something of a certain value, you will have the opportunity to draw a famous brand mobile phone worth five or six thousand yuan.
And since today is the first day of opening, all the products in the store are discounted by 7%.
It's a discount and a lottery, so it's naturally very lively.
For this kind of marketing campaign, Qi Xiang definitely has no interest. However, he also noticed that the store seemed to have a second floor, and the second floor was restricted to ordinary people.
Qi Xiang could see clearly, some people wanted to go up to the second floor, but they were stopped by a sweet-looking girl.
The sweet girl took out a painting and seemed to ask something, and several people shook their heads in confusion and naturally dispersed. But someone also answered, and in the sweet smile of the girl, she walked up proudly.
Qi Xiang was a little curious, and walked through the spacious shop to the staircase leading to the second floor.
"Sir, please stay." The girl smiled and explained: "Upstairs is an exhibition of calligraphy and painting, things are more precious, and the space is limited, so only professionals or guests with a certain level are allowed to go up to watch." ”
Qi Xiang raised his eyebrows: "How do you determine whether it is professional or non-professional?" ”
"Sir, I have a painting here." The corner of the girl's mouth smiled sweetly: "What do you think of this painting?" ”
Qi Xiang's eyes gathered and carefully looked at the painting in the girl's hand.
The size of the scroll is not large, and the subject matter is a common landscape map. A river flows eastward, with leafy trees on the shore and a single-plank bridge in the distance.
A shepherd boy who is holding a cow is raising his hand to play butterflies by the bridge, which is innocent and funny.
Qi Xiang glanced at it and concluded: "This is an imitation." ”
"How?" The girl's smile was a little rich.
"This is a scene imitating Qi Baishi's famous painting, a shepherd boy playing in spring." Qi Xiang commented: "Well, it's not imitation, it should be a copy." It seems that it should be the classwork of the students of the art academy, and the level is not bad. ”
"Of course, there are many problems. The lines of the landscape are not smooth enough. The branches and leaves of the trees are not properly handled with light and shade, and they are a little messy and blurry. The most important thing is the hand of the shepherd boy. ”
Qi Xiang shook his head and said: "As we all know, the most difficult thing to draw is the hand. The ancients described their hands, either like soft wattles or spring bamboo shoots, which are very neat and beautiful, with distinct knuckles. ”
"It's not a clever painter who generally doesn't dare to paint his hands, but hides his clumsiness, makes use of his strengths and avoids his weaknesses, hides his hands, or cages them in his sleeves, and doesn't dare to see people."
Qi Xiang talked eloquently: "Qi Baishi is a generation of painting masters, so naturally he has no concerns about this. Although I have not seen the real shepherd boy frolicking in spring, I have seen some high-definition photos, and I know that the hand of the shepherd boy is like a ball of lotus buds, very delicate, very natural, and very vivid. ”
"But you see, the hand on this painting is like a mess, too much difference."
Qi Xiang said lightly: "So I think this should be a painting by a student of the painting academy, the skill is too shallow, and it will take a few more years of practice." ”
"Papa, papa!"
At this moment, someone next to him couldn't help but applaud, walked over briskly and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Qi is really a good eye, thorough analysis, admirable." ”
"Xiao Ding ......" Qi Xiang looked back, also a little surprised, and then relieved. After all, Xiao Ding is obviously the head snake of Huzhou, so it is not surprising that he appears here.
"Shopkeeper Qi, I thought you had gone back." Xiao Ding smiled and said, very familiar.
"If there is something temporary, stay for a few more days." Qi Xiang explained casually, then turned his head and said, "I'm done, how is the level, can you go up?" ”
In the new month, I need everyone's support, ask for collections, and ask for recommendations.
