Xingcao is different from regular script and cursive script, it is a kind of calligraphy between Xingshu and cursive, which can be said to be the cursive of Xingshu, or the line of cursive script.

A person who can write well in cursive must have a foundation in regular script, calligraphy, including cursive script, so it is a kind of book that is not difficult to write, but it is difficult to write well.

Those so-called calligraphers who can only write in cursive, let alone cursive, I am afraid that they will not be able to write even in cursive.

Chen Yi's Xiaokai and Zhang Cao have now reached a state and are studying in terms of calligraphy, and Gu Lao's painting of Xingcao can give him some insights.

Through this piece of grass, it is enough to know that Gu Lao, the vice president of the calligraphy association, is very worthy of the name.

At the home of the two old men, Chen Yi also conducted some analysis and exchanges with them about what Wang Shijie had done.

Mo Lao and Gu Lao directly stated that if they needed any help, they would do their best.

Chen Yi smiled and told the two old men that Wang Shijie was such a clown who jumped off the beam, and it was not worth their shot.

Another day passed, and the day that Chen Yi was most looking forward to came, in the afternoon, it would be the time when the firewood kiln was fired, and he couldn't help but want to see what this firewood kiln looked like.

When he arrived at the racecourse, it took Chen Yi some time to calm down, and even his master and such a master-level figure as Wen Lao couldn't keep calm when they learned about the firewood kiln, let alone him.

Originally, the staff of the racecourse thought that Chen Yi was just painting and playing, and he should be annoyed in a day or two, but they didn't expect it. The young man lasted three days. Every day, I come to the horse farm to draw horses.

In the middle of these two or three days. In addition to these staff, Chen Yi also met some horse owners, even if they were not wealthy figures, they were much richer than ordinary people.

Otherwise, even if you can afford to buy a horse, you probably won't be able to afford the monthly maintenance costs, and if the horse is injured, it will need more. Of course, if you win the race, the prize money is also very generous, not to mention, it is an honor to become a horse owner in Hong Kong.

During these days, Chan Yat met different horses, as well as different owners, including wealthy people and some well-known people in Hong Kong.

It was three or four o'clock in the afternoon. Chen Yi did not continue to paint horses, but chose to return to the hotel. Waiting for news from Jingdezhen.

After a while, Zheng Lao called, Chen Yi immediately asked what the result was, and a cough couldn't help but come from the phone, "Cough, Xiaoyi, this burn is burned, but I can't take it out, when I called you the day before yesterday, I was too excited, but I didn't estimate the time, it still takes two days for the kiln to cool down, and it is still the day after tomorrow to enter the kiln to take out the porcelain." ”

Hearing his master's words, Chen Yi immediately patted his head, the master is too mastery, isn't he the same, he actually forgot the time of the kiln cooling, if he is in Jingdezhen now, naturally he doesn't need the kiln to cool, he can use the identification technique to know the situation of the firewood kiln inside, and now, he can only wait until it cools down.

Hung up the phone, Chen Yi was a little helpless, he was excited for a day in vain, or continue to study the painting horse, he took out some sketches he had drawn, and continued to study, now it is only three days of sketching, he is ready to wait a few more days to start painting.

The horses are painted on white paper, giving color and life, and allowing them to be reproduced on rice paper.

The next morning, when Chen Yi was about to go to the racecourse, Xiao Shenghua called, saying that he was going to the antique market in a while, and asked him if he would go.

Chen Yi thought about it, and naturally agreed, after coming to Hong Kong for so many days, he has not been to the antique market, and he doesn't know what kind of harvest will be in the antique market here.

Subsequently, Xiao Shenghua drove to pick up Chen Yi and headed towards the antique market.

There are three antique streets in Hong Kong, the most famous of which are two streets, one is the Hospice Road, which is the earliest street established in Hong Kong since the opening of the foreign trade port, and has been listed by a foreign magazine as one of the top ten most popular tourist attractions in the world.

The other street is Morro Street, these two streets are in the same area, just a distance apart, here because of the early years of the Indian orderly dormitory, and called Morro Street, about 200 meters long, opened many antique shops, and all kinds of antique relics, almost can be found here, even old pens, old telephones, Mickey Mouse, Barbie dolls and the like are also displayed on the shelves.

According to Xiao Shenghua, these two streets, Moro Street is the most lively, with all kinds of antiques and variety, and the probability of Taobao picking up leaks is also greater.

After parking the car in a parking lot, Chen Yi followed Xiao Shenghua to Morro Street and entered the market.

In the antique city in the mainland, there are only two forms of shops, pù and street stalls, but in this street, he actually saw that some stall owners built a simple small shed directly on the road to sell their antiques.

The quality of these small sheds is really not flattering, as if they will fall crooked when touched, which makes Chen Yi a little unbearable.

"Okay, don't laugh, maybe you can still find a treasure in this little shed, go." Seeing Chen Yi's appearance, Xiao Shenghua shook his head and smiled, even in a prosperous place like Hong Kong, there are dark corners that others don't know.

Along the way, Chen Yi saw many foreigners gathered around the stalls, holding antiques one by one, and dragging foreign texts with the stall owners.

In the small shed in the middle of the road, Chen Yi also saw many cultural relics from the old period, such as the early Chinese Ji special stamps, a stamp collection, with dozens of tickets, and at this time, the boss in the shed saw Chen Yi pick up this stamp album and said the price with a smile.

Stamp is the abbreviation of two kinds of stamps, respectively, commemorative stamps and special stamps, commemorative stamps are specially issued stamps for a certain event or occasion, mainly for collectors, so basically will not be used on the envelope.

This type of stamp pass guò has a large format, a delicate design and printing, rich patterns, and is not allowed to be reprinted, and has a specific sales period.

As for special stamps, they are stamps issued to promote specific things, and both stamps have now been abolished by the state, so the stamps that have been handed down in the past are very valuable.

This stamp collection has dozens of special stamps, this boss only needs 100 Hong Kong dollars, so Chen Yi suddenly shook his head, if these are true, then it is more than 100 times more than 100 Hong Kong dollars.

Subsequently, he also saw the second version of Huaxia's renminbi, about a dozen pieces, and the opening price was only 600 Hong Kong dollars.

Chen Yi smiled, no matter where it is, as long as it involves antiques, there will inevitably be fakes and imitations, and in Hong Kong, a prosperous city with great trade circulation, fake antiques will probably be countless.

Looking at the boss in the shed, he couldn't help but laugh, this old man was full of antiques, wearing a World War II-era steel helmet on his head, and two thick necklaces around his neck, one was a wooden bead and the other was a jade bead.

And on his body, it is also full of all kinds of jade and carvings, and even on his hands, he is wearing several different bracelets, and it is indeed worthy of opening an antique shop, it is estimated that it cannot be put in the small shed, and it is still unknown if it is put on it.

Subsequently, Chen Yi and Xiao Shenghua separated and began a shopping trip, here, I did see a lot of things that the mainland could not see, on the stall, there were all kinds of bronzes, and he saw a big bronze bell thrown directly on the ground like that, it was simply not a bronze treasure, although it was not copper.

The funniest thing is that at the entrance of a shop, there are two fake models, wearing British honor guard and royal police costumes, wearing big black caps, just to prevent them from being blown away by the wind, in the middle of their trousers, directly pull a rope out, one tied to a box, the other tied to a sack.

Gramophones and clocks from abroad are available here, and it is a place where Chinese and Western cultures blend.

After walking around for a while, Chen Yi accidentally found a Hong Kong trade silver dollar gold pattern, although he didn't know much about this kind of coin, but through the guò identification information, he already knew very detailed.

This is minted and issued in 1901, and as far as this kind of coin is concerned, there is only one kind in 1901, which was engraved by the British Royal Mint and minted by the Indian Mint, which is very rare in existence, and can be said to be an important numismatic cultural relic after Hong Kong's return to the motherland, but its value is not too high, that is, more than 500,000 yuan.

After getting this coin, Chen Yi walked around some antique stalls and small sheds, and did not gain much, so he opened the identification system and used an intermediate treasure search technique.

The Intermediate Treasure Searching Technique turned into a golden light, fell to the ground, turned into a golden treasure search mouse, winked at Chen Yi, sniffed around, and then headed in one direction.

Chen Yi naturally followed behind, every time he saw this treasure search mouse, he was very happy, the reason was just that this treasure search mouse was very clever and cute, and his whole body was golden, if outsiders could see it, he estimated that everyone would surround and want to catch it.

Following the treasure mouse, he came to a small shed, which seemed to be dealing in all kinds of antiques, including calligraphy and paintings, bronze ware, jade, and even some foreign foreign gadgets, which could also be found, and on a shelf, he also saw a bunch of unframed oil paintings.
