Chapter 133: There Is No Absolute Truth
"The sky is as high as Pangu, and the earth is as thick as your skin!" The master snorted, immediately put away the flashlight, looked at Yang Kangdao, "Eldest prince, Ou Mofeng identified this painting as a fake, did you say anything?" β
"Nope!" Yang Kang shook his head and said, "I asked my father, and he said - Mr. Ou said 'I can't see it'. β
The master carefully put away the painting, still put it in a leather case, and handed it to Yang Kangdao: "In my opinion, there is no doubt that this painting is genuine, but I am not an appraiser, and what I have seen does not count." β
"I don't see any flaws." Yang Kang said.
"Ling Zun, like Zhou Bomin, can't see a flaw!" As he spoke, the master sat down and said, "I have seen countless ancient paintings, and I have never looked at them, so as far as I can judge, this painting should be genuine." β
This time, Yang Kang didn't speak, and Taiyin Baojian also identified that the painting was real, and afterwards, he also looked at it repeatedly, and he really couldn't see anything.
Zhou Bomin may not be as good as Mr. Jia in Langyuan, who specializes in appraising calligraphy and painting, and even less as Ou Mofeng, but after all, he is also an authentic calligraphy and painting appraiser, not such a swagger.
"The eldest prince, there is no absolute truth in calligraphy and painting." The master sighed softly.
"Huh?" Yang Kang is a little confused, there is no absolute truth or falsehood?
"When I was your age, I also thought so, what is true is true, and what is false is false, how can you use falsehood to confuse truth and deceive the public? Later, I experienced something myself, and it dawned on me. At the mention of this, the master sighed softly.
"Master. What's the matter? Feng Xiucai and Guo Fatzi had never heard the master mention this, so they asked in surprise.
"At that time, my master was still alive. I'm only as old as you, and I'm just as young and vigorous -- and I think the eldest prince knows what we do? Master asked.
"Yes!" Yang Kang nodded. Guo Fatzi and Feng Xiucai didn't hide it from him, how could he not know?
Besides, where the antiques come from, who doesn't know? Except for a limited number of things that are inherited in an orderly manner, the rest are not all from the underground?
"At that time, my fat uncle and I found a Song tomb in the Yuzhou area, although the scale is not large, but it should also be the tomb of the official eunuch's family. The Song Dynasty was the era of the rise of gold and stone science, and it was also the peak age of poetry, calligraphy and painting. Master said.
"Master, don't you say that you're empty?" Feng Xiucai said unkindly.
"Hmph, you think I'm you?" The master took out a cigarette and shook it at Yang Kang.
Yang Kang carefully put the painting aside, and then smiled: "Master." I don't smoke. β
When the master heard him say this, he lit a cigarette, took a puff, and spit out the smoke before saying, "There are three of us." The Song tomb was dug up overnight, and in addition to a few kinds of porcelain and a few pieces of jade, there was a pair of words - you can't think of it. Whose word is that. β
"Who's?" Yang Kang suddenly came to his senses, he really didn't care. The tombs of the eunuchs of the Song Dynasty, how many years have passed. It may not be well preserved, and even if it is well preserved, things like calligraphy and paintings are really not good to preserve.
"Su Dongpo's "Red Cliff Fu"." The master took a puff of his cigarette and continued, "But we all know that once this thing is taken out, it can't be preserved, and it will melt when it sees the wind. Therefore, Chen Mo sealed it with tomb soil and raised it for a few years, and after a few years, we wanted to sell that ancient painting, but we encountered trouble. β
"Why?" Yang Kang asked puzzledly, if it is Su Dongpo's "Red Cliff Fu" unearthed from the Song Tomb, theoretically it is unlikely to be fake, even if someone copies it in the contemporary era, it will not sign Su Dongpo's name.
At that time, the readers regarded their face and reputation more than anything else, and as long as there was such a plagiarism of Shenma, from then on, their reputation and future were ruined.
"Because everybody thinks it can't be the real thing." The master sighed softly and said, "Lao Bai was still hot-tempered at that time, and when he was angry, he was not ready to make a move, and then burned it clean." In hindsight, I regret it. β
"The main reason is that you can't explain the origin of ancient calligraphy and painting to people." When Yang Kang heard this, he also secretly scolded Wu Bai in his heart - this person's temper is really bad, and his good masterpiece is ruined like this.
"Tokyo Fenghualu is also very famous, but it is not something that has been inherited in an orderly manner!" The master sighed softly.
Yang Kang understood in an instant that even if they all believed that the painting was genuine, if some great appraisers believed that the painting was a copy or imitation, then it would be very difficult for them to prove that the painting was genuine.
"Eldest son, I'll take the bad guys to the capital early tomorrow morning." The master said, "Check the origin of this painting, Lao Bai is doing things, I have always been worried." β
Yang Kang thought of the old Bai uncle who was very good at drinking, and immediately smiled bitterly, he learned from Guo Fatzi's mouth that Wu Bai and Guo Fatzi's uncle went to the capital to check the origin of this painting.
"Tokyo Fenghualu" has been missing for many years in the antique industry, and there is no news, so it will not come out for no reason.
"Master, I'm not leaving!" Feng Xiucai was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly shouted, "There are some breakthroughs on my side, I can't leave yet, tonight your old man wants to be punished, I admit it." β
The master sneered: "What breakthrough have you made, this time you made a mess of things for me, I haven't asked you yet?" Admit punishment and admit punishment? I'll give you a good meal later. "When he mentioned this, he was very angry, and he usually looked at his apprentice as a good person, why did he drop the chain at a critical moment?
"Master, I really have a clue." Feng Xiucai hurriedly said, "I asked for a phone number from Jiang Yanβ" As he spoke, he told Jiang Yan about it.
"Is there such a thing?" When the master heard this, he frowned slightly.
"Master, that's exactly what Jiang Yan said." Yang Kang also frowned, thought about it, and then said, "I feel that Jiang Yan may be lying." β
"Lying?" Feng Xiucai was stunned for a moment, and then shouted, "I'...... That's right, if there is a million, if you want to buy a murderer, it is easy to create a little accident, there is no need to entrust Jiang Yan at all? β
"I thought so too!" Regarding this question, Yang Kang smiled bitterly, "It's easy to have a million people who want my little life, but it's because some outlaws give him their lives, hehe...... My little life is still worth a lot, and besides, I already know who the owner of that phone is. β
Feng Xiucai swooped and got up from the ground, but because he had been kneeling for a long time, the blood was different, and then he fell to the ground again with a "poof", even so, he still didn't care about so much, and asked urgently: "Little prince, ...... Do you already know who the owner of the phone is? Is this impossible? I asked the monkey to find someone, but there was no news at all. β
The master was angry, raised his hand and slapped him on the head, scolded: "Why did I accept such a useless apprentice as you?" β
"Master, I can guarantee that Master Zu scolded you like this back then, and I was so unproductive, that's because like you, you didn't teach well!" Feng Xiucai touched his head and said with a sad face.
Yang Kang wanted not to laugh, but he couldn't help it......
Guo Fatzi tore a piece of cardboard, threw it on the ground, then sat on the ground, looked at Yang Kang and asked, "Little Wangye, no kidding, do you really know who the owner of that phone is?" β
Yang Kang nodded cautiously and said, "After you left that day, I was curious, so I took my mobile phone and called, but I didn't expect it to get through." β
"Who?" Guo Fatzi slammed his fist on the ground and scolded, "Lao Tzu is going to pick his skin, this person is simply too bad." β
"Tang Chen!" Yang Kang said.
"I'm going to peel him off...... Wait a minute...... Little prince, who do you say? Guo Fatzi had already "swished" and stood up from the ground, but at this time, he suddenly came back to his senses and looked at Yang Kang blankly.
"Eldest Prince, are you sure?" When the master heard this, his face also changed.
"Sure." Yang Kang nodded.
He ...... He's crazy? Guo Fatzi asked puzzledly, "He and you...... There was a feud in the first place? β
"No, I didn't know him." Yang Kang said, "At the beginning, I met him at the bus stop in Taoyuan Villa, and he mistook me for his son and recruited me to take his ride......"
When the master heard this, he frowned, and said for a long time: "Tang Chen was sad about the death of his beloved son, and suddenly saw a young man who looked somewhat similar at the same time and in the same place, he found some psychological comfort, I can express my understanding, but that mobile phone number ...... Why him? β
"Serial number?" Yang Kang said.
However, for this reason, it is impossible for him to deceive himself.
"Eldest prince, think about it, if Tang Chen didn't do this, then the person who wants to get his mobile phone must be someone he is very close to." The master asked, "Have you offended anyone, think about it?" β
"I can't really remember." Yang Kang shook his head, even if Yin Qing's matter back then, she took the initiative and broke up with her, the main reason was that on Valentine's Day, they made an appointment to eat, and then Yang Kang bought flowers and chocolates, waited for her for three hours, didn't answer the phone, and even turned off the phone.
made Yang Kang think that she had an accident and almost called the police.
In the end, Yin Qing came, and he asked for a moment, what happened to make her three hours late?
As a result, Yin Qing lost her temper at him and said: "If you don't want to wait, then break up, there are many men who are willing to wait for her!" β
Yang Kang was angry and broke up with her directly. (To be continued......)
