Zhou Ming didn't have any good feelings for Liu Xiaoya's boyfriend, and always felt that the other party had an aura that he hated very much. But for no reason, he couldn't speak ill of each other, so he smiled and asked, "Hello, is Boss Liu at home?" ”

"No, who are you?" The man looks very good, gentle and elegant, but his eyes are also full of vigilance, and standing at the security door does not mean to let Zhou Ming in.

Is this man jealous? Zhou Zhou Ming snorted secretly in his heart, if it weren't for Liu Ziling's little girl and those two paintings, he would have rushed to this man's attitude, he would definitely turn around and leave.

If you go, you will definitely not go, after all, you have made an appointment with Liu Xiaoya, but your attitude must always be expressed, especially the disgust that came out of the bottom of your heart made his face turn cold all of a sudden, and he said expressionlessly: "Since Boss Liu is not here, then I will come back another day, goodbye," and turned around and left.

"Hey, wait, I remembered, Xiaoya said that a teacher came back today, it should be you, sorry, sorry."

Hearing the man's voice, Zhou Ming said in his heart that it was true, and the other party knew his identity and purpose at all. It's just that this man is so wary, even Liu Xiaoya's guests have to play some tricks to test it, I really don't know that Liu Xiaoya can stand it so much. Or does Liu Xiaoya not understand this man's methods?

Thinking of this, Zhou Zhou Ming subconsciously thought of a possibility, but he didn't say anything, let alone express it, and smiled slightly as if nothing had happened, "It's me." ”

"Please come in, please come in," the man hurriedly opened the security door and motioned for Zhou Ming to go in.

Zhou Ming nodded and entered the room steadily.

Liu Xiaoya's home is also a villa, in the south of the city/district near the location of the city center square, although it is not a seaview villa, but if you want to go to the beach to play, that is, it is a matter of ten minutes, the surrounding environment is very good, in addition to the sea, it is also close to the Qingshi Botanical Garden and Badaguan Scenic Area.

The surrounding popularity is very strong, but it is not chaotic, because the location of the community is relatively deep, it is a good place to be quiet. The villa occupies a lot of ground, and the decoration is not said. This villa, you can't get it without 10 million, right? Zhou Ming walked into the living room and looked at it while secretly pondering.

"Where did Boss Liu go?" Zhou Ming didn't see Liu Xiaoya after entering the door, and he was a little puzzled. It is said that Liu Xiaoya's attitude was so enthusiastic yesterday, even if he didn't greet him in person at the gate today, he should be guarding in the living room, there is absolutely no reason why he can't hide it when he comes to the door.

"I'm going out to buy paper and brushes," the man smiled and made a cup of tea for Zhou Ming, "Dare to ask Mr. your surname?" Where is the high? ”

Listening to this man's crepe tone, Zhou Zhou Ming only felt a little tired in his heart, and even felt a little like vomiting, and at the same time he was secretly vigilant, because ordinary people would not ask such questions, and they asked so decently. But Zhou Zhou Ming still replied with a smile: "If you don't have the surname Zhou, you can't talk about Gao, and there is one unemployed vagrant." ”

Generally speaking, when someone asks you for your name, you should also ask back, whether you remember it or not, it is always polite to ask. However, in the face of this man, Zhou Ming was not interested in asking anything at all, and after saying a word, he sat on the sofa and drank tea with the old god there.

Fortunately, two minutes later, Liu Xiaoya came back with her daughter, as well as two notaries.

Seeing Zhou Ming, Liu Xiaoya hurriedly walked over with a smile on her face, "Xiao Zhou, you are here," said and took Liu Ziling's hand and said, "Call uncle." ”

Liu Ziling called out uncle expressionlessly, but it could be seen that the little girl really cared about Zhou Ming, because when facing other people, let alone saying hello to you, she didn't raise her head, and her eyes wouldn't have been on Zhou Ming's body like now.

How to say, the most typical characteristic of autistic people is that they are completely isolated from the world, the whole person only lives in their own world as if they have no feelings at all, and there is almost no response to the reactions and stimuli of the outside world, especially in the face of strangers.

But when she saw Zhou Ming, Liu Ziling looked more like a normal person, although she didn't have any expressions and eyes, but she would interact with her movements and say hello, and it was this kind of expression that was different from the past that made Liu Xiaoya, a mother, unable to control it.

"Ms. Liu, do you want to start now?" At this time, the notary on the side spoke.

Liu Xiaoya nodded hurriedly and said to Zhou Ming: "Xiao Zhou, I'll take out the painting, you go up first, confirm the authenticity, and then you can set up a file for notarization, wait a minute," After speaking, he turned around and entered a small room.

After a while, Liu Xiaoya walked out with two scrolls, put them on the coffee table and carefully spread them out, "Xiao Zhou, these are the two paintings I said." ”

As soon as the scroll was opened, Zhou Ming's eyes were attracted, and at the same time, the jade pen of creation also emitted bursts of burning sensation, as if anxiously reminding Zhou Ming to hurry up and take the painting into his pocket.

Obviously, the painting is genuine.

Qi Baishi's is a small freehand painting of flowers and birds, painted a wisteria picture, and the last paragraph sends a message "Mr. Jing Xi Qing genus, Xu Ziqiu, Baishi old man painting". Obviously, this is specially painted for a person with the font size Jingxi. Zhou Zhou Ming thought hard about it, and seemed to have found the information of Mr. Jing Xi from the huge information database in his head.

This Mr. Jing Xi should be a well-known journalist, once served as an important member of the government/government, keen on the collection of modern and modern paintings and calligraphy, and is also a well-known figure in the cultural circle, but it seems that he has passed away.

Of course, it doesn't matter who this Mr. Jingxi is, the important thing is that there is such a person, because if you can find this person, it shows that the inheritance of this painting is very clear. The market value of works that are inherited in an orderly manner is generally higher.

This wisteria picture is a vertical scroll, less than 40 centimeters long, about 120 centimeters high, that is, a little more than four square feet, not big or small, but it is more exquisite, and the painting is relatively very careful. It uses a small freehand technique, and the painting style is relatively rough, but the overall layout and color matching are really not said, typical Qi style.

In addition to the above paragraph, there is also a seal body white text seal, which is "Mu Jushi".

In fact, from an artistic point of view, Qi Baishi's seal is the foundation of Baishi's art, because Qi Baishi learned to paint when he was almost thirty years old, and engraving was a very early thing. Moreover, Qi Baishi worked as a carpenter and had a very strong wrist, so he was very accurate when he was engraving, the landing point was extremely accurate, and the lines were extremely smooth.

Take this "Mu Jushi" white text seal as an example, a few strokes look very simple, but the contrast between red and white is very clear, that is to say, the layout of these three words is very good, and it is a knife after careful consideration. Ordinary people engrave the letter, that is, to engrave the words in a decent manner, but for the masters of Qi Baishi, it is obviously not, their seal is more like a painting, and there is a big world between small square inches.

And the lines of the inscription are very powerful, and there is a feeling of exhilaration, which is obviously done in one go when the knife is made. And looking at the edge effect of the seal, it can be clearly seen that the material of the seal is Qi Baishi's favorite Qingtian stone, brittle and knife, not broken or cracked, and the seal comes out with a cold atmosphere.

This qiē is Qi Baishi's style, and it is also Qi Baishi's most proud style, although it is not a big boutique, but it is also among the boutiques. Zhou Ming secretly estimated the valuation, and felt that according to the current market, the market value of this painting was at least about 2 million.

With an honorarium of more than two million a year, his tutor is really worth it, Zhou Ming smiled secretly while watching. However, calligraphy and painting, strictly speaking, should not be measured by money, but now it is such a trend, and for laymen or collectors in general, they cannot find a more suitable measure other than money, after all, not everyone knows how to appreciate art.

After confirming that it was not a fake, Zhou Zhou Ming nodded, signaled to the notary on the side that this one could be photographed and filed, and then moved his gaze to another painting.

This is also genuine, it is Zhang Daqian's genuine product, but the size is not large, the length and width are about forty centimeters, that is, just one and a half square feet, less than two square feet.

The painting is a pattern of landscape fishing, the upper left side is a large area of mountain rocks, the side of the mountain is the river, and it gradually widens downward, and there is a small boat in the center of the wide river, and a long-robed literati is sitting on the boat, holding a rod and fishing.

The whole painting is also in Zhang Daqian's style, the ink color is lighter, there is no very strong contrast, and the simple black and white colors use shade changes to depict the layering and sense of space of the landscape, and the freehand technique is brought into full play.

The color palette looks fresh and elegant, but there is a finishing touch in the key places, which suddenly highlights the momentum and charm of the whole painting. The finishing touch of this painting is on the fishing boat in the center of the river, the fishing boat is very small, and the figures are so small that the silhouette of the characters can hardly be seen, but the long fishing rod is dyed with thick ink, and the theme is suddenly highlighted.

What is the theme, it is fishing, so it is called landscape fishing.

Painters generally do not write the name of the painting on the painting, but by other painters or connoisseurs according to the content of the painting, artistic conception and theme to name, generally senior painters or connoisseurs, such as this painting, you can name it "idle fishing map", or "landscape fishing map" and the like, anyway, can not deviate from the theme, if the name of the donkey lip is not the horse's mouth, it will make people laugh.

Of course, no matter what the name of the painting is, it is the real thing. However, when estimating the price, Zhang Daqian's painting made him embarrassed for a while.
