"Brother Sheng, when did you come back, don't tell your brother, it's too boring." Wang Chong's complaint immediately came from the phone.

Liu Sheng didn't plan to return home immediately, preparing to return to school after the end of the National Day, just about to take the fishing rod to fish, one of the iron buddies in Pingcheng No. 1 Middle School called, and couldn't help but evoke Liu Sheng's good memories of that time in Pingcheng No. 1 Middle School, although he often called, but he hadn't seen each other for two or three years.

"I just came back yesterday, how do you know that I'm back." Liu Sheng was in a better mood all of a sudden, as if he had returned to the good old days of high school.

"Brother Sheng, you have to have a treat, you showed such a big face to our buddy." Wang Chong said on the other end of the phone.

"What kind of face, you have to treat yourself, let's stay at home with you, you can be regarded as the host." Liu Sheng said half-jokingly that Wang Chong didn't catch up with the college entrance examination due to illness, and he didn't want to review, so he could only stay in Pingcheng to develop.

"I'm in for a treat, okay, come on, when you come to my house, I'll invite you, Li Wei, Chen Ping, they're all back, don't you come over." Wang Chong agreed with a grin.

"Well, well, I haven't been to your house yet, remember to pick me up at your house." Liu Sheng said.

"Okay, that's it, I'm waiting for you, I'm hanging." Wang Chong saw Liu Sheng's promise and hung up the phone satisfied.

······

Driving a Jetta borrowed from his eldest brother, Liu Sheng suddenly felt that he should buy a car, although the toss in the past few years is a small fight, but he still has hundreds of thousands in his hands, which can be regarded as a small capital, of course, compared with those big collectors, it can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket, but now he is also qualified to have a car. In the future, it is also convenient to travel to and from Pingcheng for a distance of more than 100 kilometers.

I haven't been to the villages and towns in the south of Pingcheng County, and after inquiring a lot of people, I arrived at the destination, and I saw Wang Chong, Li Wei, and Chen Ping waiting at the entrance of the village from a distance, looking at them from time to time.

"Brother Sheng, I was on TV yesterday, and I wanted to laugh when I saw the appearance of that expert." As soon as Liu Sheng got out of the car, Wang rushed up and punched him.

"Ahem. You're trying to kill me. Liu Sheng rubbed his chest and complained uncontrollably.

"Excited, excited, I was excited when I thought of Brother Sheng, you killed all sides on TV yesterday, that sunrise in the east, only I was undefeated, and the obscene appearance of that bullshit expert." Wang Chong said incoherently.

"You're undefeated in the East." Liu Sheng suddenly froze, he didn't expect this kid to be the same now, and he didn't have a good mouth.

"Brother Sheng, Chongzi is underdrawn, you smoke him, we won't stop him." Li Wei coaxed on the side.

"Don't make trouble, Brother Sheng finally came back once." Chen Ping is the most stable among the several people, and his speech is more weighty, and now he is studying in the provincial capital like Li Wei.

"By the way, Brother Sheng, you haven't even come back for the New Year in the past few years, what are you doing in the capital." Chen Ping saw that the two of them finally quieted down, and asked Liu Sheng.

"Hurry, now I am following the head of our department, and I am preparing to take his graduate school entrance examination and study history." Liu Sheng said lightly. "What about you?"

"Hey, I'm still worried about finding a job, Xiaowei may go to the capital to mingle, then the two of you will be close, this guy Chongzi is about to get married." Chen Ping couldn't help but show a trace of sadness, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is unemployed after graduation, millions of college students graduate every year, there are so many employment opportunities, there are more monks and less meat, and it is not easy to find a satisfactory job.

"Okay, Chongzi, start fast enough, you have this guest here today." Liu Sheng punched Wang Chong back and said, "Xiaowei, you have to find me when you come to the capital, I haven't been in vain in the past few years in the capital, and I have some connections." ”

"Don't worry, if you don't say it then, Brother Sheng, I will look for you." Xiao Wei said with a smile on the side, in Huaxia, human affection is the most important, in his mind, Liu Sheng's words will never be targeted, and the most apprehensive in his heart has also been put down.

"Don't say anything, my mother has cooked and is waiting for us." Wang Chong interrupted everyone and urged.

·····

"Auntie, it's my first time here, this is a little bit of my heart." A few people quickly arrived at his house under Wang Chong's guidance, a middle-aged woman was standing at the door waiting for someone, several people hurried down, and Liu Sheng took out the prepared gift from the trunk.

"You kid, come on, and bring some gifts." The middle-aged woman took the gift with a smile, "Go into the house, don't stand outside." ”

Wang Chong's house is a typical housing pattern in the northern countryside, but the land here is more than Liu Sheng's township, five large tile houses, the yard area is huge, it looks very bright, a big dog is tied behind Yingbei, and he doesn't bother to get up and bark when he sees someone, and he hangs his head on the ground and pretends to sleep

"Amazing, Chongzi, your family actually dares to hang the painting of the 'Four Kings' in the living room like this." Liu Sheng walked into the living room and suddenly his eyes lit up, and found that there was a masterpiece of Wang Shimin hanging on the wall of the living room facing the door, and he couldn't help but quip.

Wang Shimin was a painter in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. The first name is Zanyu, the word is inferior, the number is a smoker, the self-proclaimed even harmonic Taoist, the old man of Xilu in the evening, etc., a native of Taicang, Jiangsu, the grandson of the first assistant Wang Xijue, and the only son of Hanlin Wang Heng. At the beginning of Chongzhen, he was known as "Wang Fengchang". He is good at landscapes, expert Huang Gongwang, the brush and ink are subtle, smooth and pine, thick and elegant, but the composition is less varied. His paintings had a great influence in the Qing Dynasty, and Wang Hui, Wu Li and his grandson Wang Yuanqi were all taught by him. Wang Shimin created the "Loudong School" of landscape painting, and was known as the Four Kings together with Wang Jian, Wang Hui and Wang Yuanqi, plus Yun Shouping and Wu Li, who were collectively known as the "Six Qing Families".

"What four kings, my grandfather said that this was handed down from his ancestors, and I thought this painting was beautiful and hung it in the living room." Wang Chong scratched his head, not realizing the preciousness of the painting.

"To be exact, this is the first of the 'four kings' Wang Shimin's masterpiece, he and Wang Jian, Wang Hui, Wang Yuanqi and called the four kings, is the founder of the landscape painting school 'Loushan School', as a generation of painting leaders in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, his influence is very large, the painter Huang Gongwang, the movie "Fuchun Mountain Residence" is based on his legendary painting "Fuchun Mountain Residence" shooting, now it is divided into two, "Useless Master Volume" is preserved in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, and "Leftover Mountain" is preserved in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Museum, far away, Let's talk about Wang Shimin, calligraphy under Dong Qichang, very good at copying the ancients, his authentic works are very few, generally preserved in major museums. Liu Sheng couldn't help nodding, this painting does seem to be an old object that has been inherited in an orderly manner.

"Look at this picture of Lushan Immortal Pavilion, the peaks and peaks are stacked, the forests are lush, the flowing springs are winding, and the long pines are erect. The thrilling pavilion on the mountainside suddenly floats on the ups and downs of the smoke, and the clouds and mist surround the mountain, which increases the sense of loftiness and far-reaching sense of the picture, and at the same time produces a contrast between the virtual and the real, so that the whole picture is shrouded in a hazy and elegant atmosphere, like a fairyland, three or two characters, and the size is extremely expressive, which shows the author's profound skills, which is a rare masterpiece of Wang Shimin. Liu Sheng secretly observed it with his discerning eyes, Baoguang soared into the sky, according to the color of Baoguang, it was indeed a work of the early Qing Dynasty, of course, Liu Sheng also smiled at the Baoguang inside.

"It's worth a lot." Wang Chong was a little foggy by Liu Sheng's words, and couldn't help but ask in a daze.

"Now the paintings of the Four Kings are very popular, but Wang Shimin's works are not very common in the market, and they are in great demand, with about 4 million per square foot." Liu Sheng frowned and thought about it and said, valuation is still a weakness for him now.

"Wow, it's so valuable, fortunately I didn't sell it, damn those antiques are so fucking black, they want to buy my painting for three thousand." When Wang Chong heard this, his eyes turned red, and he carefully put it away under the guidance of Liu Sheng and under the envious gaze of everyone.

"Hehe, if you meet a price you like, it will be higher, and in the antique circle, there are often exchanges with each other with unequal prices." Liu Sheng has a very good understanding of Wang Chong's performance. "However, there is a lot of room for appreciation of the works of the Four Kings, if you are not very short of money, I suggest that you don't sell it first, of course, if you want to sell, I can help you contact buyers."

"What are you selling, everyone comes to eat fruit, and when you get to your aunt, you should be like yourself." Just now, Wang Chong's mother went to prepare the fruit, and now she only heard an ending.

"Mom. Brother Sheng said that the painting left by his grandfather was worth at least 4 million. Wang Chong said.

"That's so much for 4 million?" Wang Chong's mother's eyes lit up.

"The value should be higher, now the works of the Four Kings are very sought after, especially Wang Shimin's paintings, there are many people in demand but there is little market circulation, and it is normal for the price to be high." Liu Sheng added.

"And you can help you contact the buyer?" Wang Chong's mother asked tentatively, after all, Liu Sheng came for the first time, and there were some things that were not easy to mention.

"Mom, Brother Sheng said that he could help us contact the buyer. Prepare to serve. Wang Chong complained a little.

"Okay, okay, I'll go. You all eat fruit. Wang Chong's mother immediately burst into laughter.

"That Brother Sheng?" Wang Chong was a little embarrassed, and his cramped face turned red.

"Second child, aren't you looking for Wang Shimin's work during this time, I came across a pair now, it's a good boutique, do you want it." Liu Sheng looked at Wang Chong's appearance, knowing that the Dao brothers were a little unspeakable, after all, it was people's privacy, and he didn't want to ask too much, so he called Su Le directly.

"Liu Sheng, how many times have I told you, don't call me second, be careful to turn your face with you." Su Le's loud voice made Liu Sheng couldn't help but move the phone half a foot away. "By the way, you said that it is Wang Shimin's work, you can see it, although I don't care about millions of pocket money, I don't want those guys to laugh."

"Aren't you worried about my vision?" Liu Sheng quipped.

"Okay, I don't know my own brother, a famous teacher is a high apprentice, Master Kong has handed over everything to you, you can make us envious, jealous and hate." Su Le kept complaining on the other end of the phone, in fact, they were able to enter the history department of Beijing University to a large extent because of Professor Kong, who has a special influence in the upper echelons of China, and many rich and powerful children do not study MBAs, and this is the reason why they came to the history department.

"The owner of the painting is an iron buddy of mine, you can't treat it badly." Liu Sheng instructed. "Alright, discuss it for yourselves." Saying that, Liu Sheng handed over the phone to Wang Chong.

"Brother Sheng." After discussing for a long time, Wang Chong returned the phone to Liu Sheng with some excitement, his eyes were red, his hands trembled slightly, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it.

"The second child is still satisfied." Liu Sheng took the phone, nodded at Wang Chong, and shouted at the phone.

"It's okay, it's just a little smaller, 4.5 million is interesting enough, I'll send the money later, you bring me the painting back, that's it, I still have a date, wait for you to come back and take you to a good place, bye." Su Le was a little cheap over there, and hung up the phone after speaking.

"What's wrong with you, don't you know each other?" Liu Sheng put down the phone and found that Li Wei and Chen Ping were both looking at him blankly, as if they were watching a Martian visitor.

"Brother Sheng, you are developed, you have to treat yourself." Chen Ping was stunned for a long time and popped out such a sentence.

"Yes, a treat." Li Wei also echoed.

"Don't worry, you can choose any place." Liu Sheng said boldly, a hanging heart was also put down, he was afraid that a few brothers would be alienated from him.
