When Uncle Liu was appreciating Yuan Mei's manuscript, he was a little different from Chen Sanyan, stretching out his index finger to imitate the handwriting on the manuscript and sketching it one by one.

Zhou Xuan saw that Uncle Liu was immersed in calligraphy, and asked a little breathlessly: "Uncle Liu, do you think this manuscript is true or false?" ”

Uncle Liu frowned, glanced at Zhou Xuan, and there was more disdain and contempt in his eyes.

Chen Sanyan smiled and said, "Xiao Luo, don't worry, Uncle Liu is appraising the authenticity of the manuscript." ”

Zhou Xuanqi said: "Can you identify the authenticity by tracing the brush words? ”

Chen Sanyan suddenly embarrassed, could it be that he really looked away? Zhou Xuan didn't even understand the most basic common sense, how could he recognize Yuan Mei's manuscript?

After thinking about it, Chen Sanyan still explained: "Generally speaking, for the identification of manuscripts, the most common and common indication is to start with 'brushwork', which generally refers to the form and method of running points and lines in calligraphy and painting works. Chinese calligraphy has a long history of thousands of years, penmanship is the most important soul and core of calligraphy and painting, the quality of penmanship is the most important criterion to measure the level of calligraphy and painting art, therefore, the authenticity of calligraphy and painting must first be reflected in the penmanship. ”

"Oh." Zhou Xuan didn't expect that there would be these exquisiteness in calligraphy and painting, and his comparison with their majors would reveal their original form.

Chen Sanyan said again: "Uncle Liu, this is from the point of penmanship, line form to distinguish Yuan Mei's penmanship, calligraphy is related to a person's temperament and environmental habits, there is exquisite, 'pen end pestle, to force through the back of the paper', refers to the power of the pen end in the penmanship, this power should be restrained, can not be exposed outside, exposed on the outside is called green tendon exposure. The speed of calligraphy and painting is secondary, the main thing is the lightness, speed, turn, and frustration of the brush, and whether it is in line with the brushwork. Some people use the pen thirsty for ink to pretend to fly white to confuse the reader, in the terminology of the commentary, this is called 'saber rattling', in fact, there is nothing in the pen. To identify large paintings, such as mountains and trees and long lines of clothing, more attention should be paid to brushwork. Painting a large painting must put the pen, that is, 'please put the pen for the straight dry', but the pen is not arbitrary, do not be confused by the pretend posture of 'madness', 'guest wisdom', that is, 'know that its release is subtle, no more than mad Watson guest wisdom'. To identify the fine and short lines, we must also see whether the pen is strong and the pen is at home. The predecessors often used such as 'such as printing mud', 'such as cone painting sand', 'spring clouds in the sky', 'flowing water and land', 'living strong in graceful, writing strong in graceful', 'sword embroidered soil flowers, Tibetan solidity, Dingcang emerald green, outside the sharp edge' and so on to metaphor brushwork. ”

After saying this, Zhou Xuan didn't understand anything, and it seemed to be clear and unclear.

Chen Sanyan talked about his research experience in antique calligraphy and painting, and on a whim, he talked endlessly.

"In terms of calligraphy, since the Wei and Jin dynasties, people have only used calligraphy as an art form to express pen and ink skills, advocating metaphysics, intoxicated and light, and the calligraphy style at this time is chic and casual."

"By the time of the Tang Dynasty, the society was stable, the economy was prosperous, and the literati were heroic in their hearts, and the calligraphy style was unrestrained and rigorous."

"In the Song Dynasty, the city was economically developed, the civic culture was thriving, the social style was particularly prosperous, and the calligraphy style was stable and beautiful, gorgeous and colorful, novel and exquisite. Then the Mongol rule of the Yuan Dynasty was harsh, and the spirit of the literati and scholars was depressed. The Ming and Qing imperial examinations have increasingly become the only way for literati to enter the office, and the examination papers of the field, the official documents of the court are strict, coupled with the continuous persecution of **, therefore, the literati doctors are conservative, the calligraphy style of this period is dominated by the Taiwan Pavilion and the Pavilion Body, the line is neat, the font is symmetrical, graceful, the strokes are straight and round, the knot is sluggish and restrained, the style is dignified and neat, steady and strong. ”

Zhou Xuan was dumbfounded when he heard it, he didn't expect that a simple question would provoke so many ways, and it was penmanship, era and dynasty, no wonder he couldn't practice calligraphy well, but he still really admired Chen Sanyan's profound knowledge.

However, Zhou Xuan was more concerned about the authenticity of his manuscript, which was related to a huge sum of 175,000, and asked Chen Sanyan in a quiet whisper: "Boss Chen, your research on calligraphy and painting is so profound, could it be that Uncle Liu is more powerful than you?" ”

He asked this selfishly, if Chen Sanyan said that Uncle Liu was better than him, then the manuscript had to be said by Uncle Liu, and I don't know if it would be true or false, if Uncle Liu was not as powerful as Chen Sanyan, then it would be much more reassuring, at least Chen Sanyan had already said that it was true, but the real meaning of his words Chen Sanyan didn't expect this.

Chen Sanyan smiled and said: "Uncle Liu's specialty is antique devices, followed by calligraphy and painting. ”

Zhou Xuan still understands the meaning of these words, what he is good at is antiques, calligraphy and painting are secondary, that is, calligraphy and painting are weaker, Chen Sanyan did not explicitly say that Uncle Liu's calligraphy and painting are weaker than him, but the meaning of the expression is.

Zhou Xuan calmed down a little in his heart, and glanced at Uncle Liu, the old man had already closed the manuscript, closed his eyes and read the words, looking like the old landlords on TV.

After a while, Uncle Liu opened his eyes and raised his face, nodded and said, "It's the manuscript of the owner of Suiyuan!" ”

Zhou Xuan's heart was a stone that fell to the ground, and the secret way was yes, what else was the schoolbag dropped by the owner of the garden!

Uncle Liu pointed to the manuscript and said: "The owner of the garden is a family of Wen, and he is as famous as Ji Xiaolan, and is known as 'Southern Yuan and Northern Ji'. Advocating 'spirituality', is based on the creation of works are 'true, new, live', but his poems mostly describe the trivial things around him, the wind and the snow and the moon of the chant, some poems tend to be gaudy, especially in his later years, Jian Zhai addendum manuscript records are mostly ghost stories, but not the same as the previous work 'Zi Buyu', and later there are some addendes on the views of life, the value of his manuscript ...... It can be said that it is indeed precious, and how much did it cost to buy it back? ”

"A dollar!" Zhou Xuan stretched out a finger, he really didn't know Yuan Mei's name, but he was overjoyed to hear Uncle Liu say that he was as famous as Ji Xiaolan, Ji Xiaolan still knew that there were too many TV series now, so he almost didn't shoot Ji Xiaolan changing his underwear and going to the kiln.

Uncle Liu was surprised: "A dollar? Then he sighed, "That's really a leak, but I've been in the south for so long, and I've also visited a lot of stalls and shops, but they are all parallel fakes, and there are almost no valuable things to see, you can find this manuscript, it's indeed luck, according to the current assessment of the value of the other manuscript works of the owner of the garden, this addendum manuscript is worth between 25 and 300,000 yuan." ”

Hearing the old man say this, Zhou Xuan was completely relieved, he was not greedy for the manuscript to sell for tens of thousands of yuan, it was best to accept it when he saw it, and this was also a windfall that fell out of thin air, it was important to be able to exchange it for cash, and if you made it, why did others buy it?

Immediately, he smiled and held the manuscript in both hands and handed it to Chen Sanyan, and said, "Boss Chen, let's still agree as before." ”

Chen Sanyan also took it happily, and said: "Okay, Xiao Zhou is a cheerful person, I won't talk much nonsense, Uncle Liu, I negotiated with Brother Xiao Zhou, buy this manuscript at a price of 180,000, Xiao Zhou has to take out 5,000 to eat, hehe, it just so happens that I have two friends from Yangzhou who have come to the south, and I will get together next time to chat and see what strange things they have." ”

Uncle Liu was very disdainful of Zhou Xuan's ignorance at first, but after seeing that he later said the true value, Zhou Xuan was not greedy to raise the price again, and his perception of him was slightly better, and it seemed that Chen Sanyan looked at him a little differently, and his face softened.

In fact, this is not to say that Chen Sanyan deliberately lowered the price of Zhou Xuan, in fact, in the antique calligraphy and painting industry, private and public transactions are two concepts, public transactions and auctions are to do things according to the rules, and to pay taxes to the state, Yuan Mei's manuscript is about 1780,000 to 200,000 yuan, and it may be sold for 300,000 yuan or even higher when it is sold at the auction, but the commission, taxes and other expenses of the auction house are also a lot of expenses, so the price that Chen Sanyan opened for Zhou Xuan is not very low.

Chen Sanyan said again: "Uncle Liu, is there enough cash in the store?" Pay Xiao Zhou. ”

Originally, he wanted to write a check to Zhou Xuan, but firstly, Zhou Xuan was not familiar with him, and he had just met, so he was afraid that he would be worried, and secondly, Zhou Xuan didn't seem to know about checks, so he simply gave him cash.

Uncle Liu went to the inner room, opened the safe, took out 180,000 yuan, put it on the table, and took out a money detector, and said, "Go to the money detector and check whether the authenticity and number are enough." ”

Eighteen stacks of banknotes, one tied for ten thousand, and the bank seals are all on them.

Zhou Xuan is still embarrassed to check the money and count the money, looking at Chen Sanyan's style and bearing for a while, he doesn't look like a treacherous person, although he says that he knows people and knows his face, but he still doesn't feel like it in his heart, people are generous to you, why do you have to be so small? Besides, this wealth is indeed unimaginable, if he doesn't meet Chen Sanyan, even if he picks up this manuscript, what's the use? If you don't mess with him, you'll throw it in the garbage heap in a few days, and it's worthless if you leave him alone.

"I won't fail to check it, Boss Chen, can you send me a bag?" Zhou Xuan said with a smile, then picked up a bundle of banknotes, tore the seal, estimated that it was separated from the middle, took the side that looked slightly more and put it on the table, and said, "Boss Chen, this half is used as food money." ”

Chen Sanyan smiled and waved his hand, and Uncle Liu brought a black briefcase and handed it to Zhou Xuan.

I took out my phone and looked at it, it was almost ten o'clock, but Chen Sanyan was still embarrassed not to go to this meal, and besides, it was my own money, eating 5,000 yuan, but I wanted to see what to eat, and it was not painful to pay for this money, but I just wanted to see how they lived their lives.

Moreover, Chen Sanyan also said that his two friends had strange things to see, if before today, Zhou Xuan was not interested in these, but suddenly made a lot of money from this, and listened to Chen Sanyan and Uncle Liu say so much about the introduction of calligraphy and painting, and fell into the mysterious temptation of antique calligraphy and painting, although he didn't know anything about this aspect, but it seemed that on this road, there was a person waving a banknote waving to him vigorously on this road!

After closing the door of Jingshizhai's store, Chen Sanyan stopped a taxi, and after getting in the car, Zhou Xuan only felt like he was dreaming, but the black briefcase he was holding in his arms could really feel it, but his face was as hot as his heart, and his palms were full of sweat!
