Volume 2 The Journey to the South Chapter 469 Each has its own gains

It's no secret that Tang Xin likes jade. / Ever since she came in, she has been wandering among the new jades and ancient jades, her eyes sweeping around. The boss knew that this time the business was not profitable.

He Lao is looking at a picture of Qiu Ying's ladies in ancient calligraphy and paintings, as we all know, Qiu Ying is good at ladies' pictures, from ancient times to the present, has reached the pinnacle of perfection.

Qiu Ying is one of the painters who represented xìng in the Ming Dynasty. Together with Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming and Tang Yin, they were called the "Four Masters of the Ming Dynasty" by later generations, also known as the "Four Masters of Tianmen".

This person was a lacquer worker in his early years, and he also painted Dongyu, and later learned to paint under Zhou Chen. Moreover, good painting is valued by Wen Zhengming and Tang Yin. He also saw a large number of ancient masterpieces in the famous connoisseur Xiang Yuanbian and Saturday Guanjia. He is good at figure painting, especially the ladies and gentlemen, and is especially good at copying.

Absorb the techniques of Ma Hezhi and Yuan people in the Southern Song Dynasty, the pen is strong, the powder is yellow paper, and the pen is messy. As for the hair cui hao jin, comprehensive dan wisp, jīng li is absolutely elegant, worthy of the ancients. Make good use of brushstrokes of different thicknesses to express different objects, or round and smooth, or frustrated and sharp, both long and sè, and good at white drawing.

He Lao is also an expert-level figure, he saw that this lady picture of the figure is accurate, has strong generalization, beautiful image, smooth lines, and Qiu Ying's brushwork is very similar, and has been paying attention to it for a long time.

"Tianbao, what do you think of this?" He asked, pointing to the picture of the lady. He already agreed with this painting in his heart, but he still asked Hong Tianbao to identify it.

"Hmmm! A masterpiece, but this ink is a bit new. Although the brushwork is very similar to Qiu Ying's masterpiece, if you look at its pen and the ink is thicker, you should know that this painter likes heavy brushwork when he puts down his brush, not Qiu Ying's painting. Hong Tianbao commented.

As soon as these words came out, He Lao frowned, and when he looked carefully, he found these very subtle things. At first, I only paid attention to the brushwork of the lines, and I almost got into the way.

"It's dangerous! But. In the end, the work of that master, since it is copied so likely. "He Lao can't see whose work it is this time.

"It should be the work of Wang Hui among the four kings of the Qing Dynasty, if the price is right, you can buy it." Hong Tianbao said. He found something very interesting, there was something wrong with the seal.

The four kings are: Wang Shimin, Wang Jian, Wang Hui, and Wang Yuanqi. They were supported by the royal family. It was an orthodox school of painting appreciated by both the government and the opposition in the early Qing Dynasty. The Four Kings emphasized that they should abide by the law of pen and ink in the past dynasties. The multi-note imitation of a certain penmanship. The rules and regulations are also basically conformist. Although there are occasional portraits of landscapes, the penmanship is also inscribed with a certain chapter or penmanship, in order to show the authenticity.

Among the four of them, Wang Hui has been fond of painting since childhood. Inheriting his family's education, he also learned painting from Zhang Ke, a fellow countryman who learned Huang Gongwang's painting method, and showed extraordinary painting talent very early. Wang Hui studied under Wang Shimin and Wang Jian. However, the landscapes he painted are not confined to one family, and they are widely drawn, and they are the culmination of all families since the Tang and Song dynasties. Melting the North and South schools of painting into one furnace.

On the basis of Wang Shimin and Wang Jian's development of the Southern School of Painting, Wang Hui borrowed some techniques from the Northern Sect to sort out the landscape painting tradition in a relatively comprehensive manner, forming a law with a comprehensive summary of the quality of the painting. Therefore, it is also known as the painting saint of the Qing Dynasty.

"Wang Hui?" He Lao looked at it for a while, and felt that it was not quite the same, these brushstrokes were not Wang Hui's style.

"I'll tell you when I get back, this painting is interesting." Hong Tianbao said with a smile.

He Lao nodded. Although he doesn't think it's Wang Hui's work, it's obvious that it's indeed a master's thing, and it's rare. So he bargained with the boss and finally got it for $100,000.

At this time. Tang Xin has also picked a few pieces of jade, with new jade and ancient jade in the middle. can enter her eyes, naturally it is not ordinary. Hong Tianbao took a few looks. There are two pieces of jadeite, which is not bad. A fine violet, a piece of ocean blue. In addition, Hong Tianbao also saw an ancient jade, which is quite interesting.

"The boss settles the score! Everyone understands people, so don't fool people with that. Tang Xin knocked down all the words that the boss had prepared earlier, which made people very depressed. However, this beauty picks all the good goods in the store, how can she make a lot of money in the middle.

"Good! I don't bother anymore. Charge you a total of four million dollars, which is a fair price? The boss calculated and said to Tang Xin.

Tang Xin originally wanted to bargain, but seeing that this guy was quite good at being a man and didn't cut people indiscriminately, he nodded. The boss doesn't want to suffer any losses! This is a very standard market price.

After transferring the account, the boss immediately smiled toothlessly, although he failed to cheat people today, he also made a lot of money, even if there was no business in the next few months, it would not be affected. He hurriedly took out the box and helped Tang Xin put it up.

At this time, Hong Tianbao set his eyes on a Western sculpture. These gringos are open-minded, and these sculptures are all **. For such a sculpture, Hong Tianbao is not interested in it at all, what he is really interested in is an ancient book hidden inside.

"What? Do you like these things? Seeing that Hong Tianbao's gaze had stayed on the sculpture for so long, He Lao picked it up and looked at it a few times, and immediately asked.

Hong Tianbao shook his head: "I don't like it very much." ”

The boss thought that this was Hong Tianbao's prevarication, and deliberately said this to make him not easy to open his mouth. However, these foreign antiques really have no way out, and they are relatively unpopular things, so if they have business, they must be thrown out as soon as possible, so as to save them from dusting every day.

"This brother, you have a good eye! This sculpture also belongs to jīng, if you want it, I will give it to you cheaper, after all, you have patronized so much today. The boss hurriedly pitched. For these hot things, he always tries his best to sell them.

Hong Tianbao put the things down and said with a smile: "Then how is it cheap?" If you make a price, I won't bargain, if it suits you, take it, if it's not suitable, forget it. ”

Hearing this, the boss was embarrassed, how much should he say? The most difficult thing to deal with is this kind of customer, the price is not negotiable, and the thing at a fixed price is the most terrible.

After a moment's hesitation, he held out a finger. This guy is not stupid, he didn't speak directly, and he deliberately explored the bottom line of Hong Tianbao's price.

"Ten thousand? That's it. Hong Tianbao waved his hand.

"There, there! One thousand, of course, is a dollar, if you don't want it, I can't help it, this is already a loss-making business, and I received two thousand at the beginning. The boss said hurriedly.

Hong Tianbao smiled and said secretly in his heart: I'm afraid it's two hundred? In this world, is there a businessman who will do a loss-making business? However, a thousand dollars, it is not good to say anything, and I paid the money happily.
