Chapter 225: Treasure Appreciation
Hearing Wu Lao's words, Ye Chen couldn't help but scold his mother in his heart, this Wu Lao is really shrewd, he has moved out of his master, if he doesn't identify well or is wrong, then the master's reputation will be bad in his own hands, does this Wu Lao have a grudge against the master? Fortunately, I had the foresight and just made preparations in advance, otherwise it would be a big shame.
In fact, this is Ye Chen's mistake, Wu Lao is trying to force Ye Chen to make a good identification, don't embarrass his master, of course, he will do the final check to ensure that there will be no accidents.
Wu Lao's words gradually calmed down the commotion, and the people in the back of the line were muttering quietly.
"This is Old Li's apprentice?"
"I'm too young."
"Maybe people have the ability, or can Elder Li accept him as an apprentice?"
"Also, let's take a look at the previous appraisal first, if the level is not good, we will call Wu Lao to see."
Ye Chen listened to the discussion and smiled noncommittally, I can't identify it?
The first person to come to Ye Chen was a little girl, who was accompanied by a middle-aged man, who seemed to be a father and daughter.
"Hello, what do you want to identify, can you show it to me?" While speaking, Ye Chen picked up a pair of white gloves next to the table and brought them up.
The little girl smiled: "Big brother, you can identify things at your age, it's really amazing, and you're so handsome, can you take a photo with me?" ”
Ye Chen's head was full of black lines, this is to appreciate the treasure or to see the handsome guy, although the brother is very handsome, you don't have to say it.
The middle-aged man on the side coughed and said, "Xiaoyu, what are you talking about, quickly show the things to this little brother." ”
Xiaoyu pouted and said, "Isn't it just a broken painting left by grandpa, it can be worth a few dollars." ”
Xiao Yu took out a pair of tight painting scrolls from the package behind him and handed it to Ye Chen.
The middle-aged man on the side looked at the painting in Ye Chen's hand nervously, for fear that Ye Chen's mistake would damage the painting.
It's no wonder that the middle-aged man is nervous, the quality of this painting is really not good, Ye Chen carefully opened the painting scroll, his brows furrowed, this painting doesn't seem to be very well preserved, and there are gray mold spots in many places.
This painting is a painting of flowers and birds, and the overall painting method is very delicate, not pretentious, and very natural.
Ye Chen recalled the knowledge he had just learned, combined with the information in the master's notebook, and looked at it carefully.
However, looking at these is not sure of the authenticity of this painting, Ye Chen picked up a magnifying glass and looked at the seal on the side, hey, this is...
For the first time, Ye Chen wanted to rely on his own knowledge to see the authenticity of this painting, and he didn't want to rely on those hands, he should have heard it if he went down with four million points.
But the painting in front of Ye Chen was a little incomprehensible, this seal was a little blurry, and he looked at it carefully, so it was, it's a pity, it's a pity, such a good painting is not well maintained, it's really a cruel thing.
In order to determine whether his first identification was correct, Ye Chen took off his gloves and put his hand on the edge of the scroll, and soon Ye Chen determined whether what he had identified was correct.
Retracting his hand, Ye Chen couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, this was the first time he relied on the knowledge he had learned to determine the authenticity of a painting, which made him happier than seeing the authenticity of the painting with his hands, even if the ability of his hands disappeared, Ye Chen would not live on the streets, and he would not starve to death at any time. I want them to help me see things.
Looking at the ignorant girl in front of him, Ye Chen felt a little funny in his heart, this girl is probably spoiled at home, and she will play the temper of the eldest lady as soon as she comes, don't you know what the value of this painting will be.
"Little sister, congratulations, this painting is real." Ye Chen smiled.
Xiaoyu was stunned, he didn't expect Ye Chen to say that this painting was real, looking at the broken painting in his hand, Xiaoyu looked unbelievable.
The middle-aged man standing behind Xiaoyu was a little excited: "Little brother, what you said is true?" Is this painting real? "The middle-aged man is a little incoherent.
Ye Chen nodded and affirmed: "It's true." ”
Wu Lao was not far from Ye Chen, and when he heard Ye Chen make up his mind without even asking, he couldn't help frowning slightly, thinking in his heart, is there really anything powerful about this kid? It can't be nonsense, right? I have heard that he is very good at identification, but he doesn't know whether it is true or false, and he has to check it.
Thinking of this, Wu Lao stood up and came to Ye Chen's side, took reading glasses and took a closer look.
When the middle-aged man saw Wu Lao coming, he swallowed back what he was about to say, waiting for Wu Lao's identification.
After the identification of his hands, Ye Chen was very confident in his statement, and he was not afraid of Wu Lao's appraisal again.
The people around also gathered around, wanting to see how Ye Chen's identification was, and they also had a bottom in their hearts.
Putting down the magnifying glass, Wu Lao glanced at Ye Chen deeply and said, "Tell me how this painting is." ”
Ye Chen smiled and said: "This painting depicts that under the banana leaves after the rain, several cormorants looking around are perched on the thick and simple boulders, with different expressions, enjoying the fresh air after the rain. The head and neck of the cormorant are painted in vermilion without bones, and the round eyes make the waterfowl look energetic. The surrounding scenery is depicted around the theme, which points out the living environment of cormorants. The brush and ink are natural, no pretentiousness, the color is simple, and the shape is simple. ”
Wu Lao nodded affirmatively at Ye Chen's statement and said, "Then can you identify whose painting it is?" ”
Ye Chen replied: "This is a painting of Mr. Li Kuchan in his later years, everyone knows that Mr. Li Kuchan once studied under Master Qi Baishi and learned its essence, and the paintings of his later years are the best of his fine works."
Let's talk about Li Kuchan's paintings, everyone knows that "big" is a significant feature of Li Kuchan's paintings.
For example, the huge "Midsummer Picture" is painted with four pieces of rice paper, with an area of 22.04 square meters. Flowers like pots, leaves like covers, stems like arms, blooming lotuses, rocks, and water birds form a huge picture. Another example is "Ink Bamboo Drawing": it is a huge piece spliced together with three zhang and two horses of rice paper. Li Kuchan likes to use heavy ink in his paintings, making good use of splashed ink, scorched ink, ink halos, and small works with large brushstrokes. When Li Kuchan talked about pen and ink, he said: "The ink must be thick to be durable."
This painting is a small three-foot-long scroll, which is rare in his paintings, but unfortunately, this painting has not been well preserved, which affects its overall integrity, which greatly reduces the value of the painting. It's a pity, it's a pity. ”
Wu Lao stroked his palms and laughed: "Okay, that's right, you are worthy of Li Guang's apprentice, Li Guang can get your apprentice is really envious, let's identify it well, you can already stand alone, I'll go to the side to rest and rest." After saying that, Wu Lao turned around and left.
Leaving a group of people face to face, looking at the painting is envious, jealous and hateful, wishing that this painting is their own.
Hearing Wu Lao's affirmative answer, the middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, and then thought of the value of this painting, and hurriedly asked: "Little brother, how much do you think this painting will be worth if it is auctioned?" ”
Ye Chen lowered his head and thought for a moment and said: "If this painting "Green Rain and Clear Bamboo Township" is in complete condition, the auction price can reach 1.5 million, and the final transaction price may exceed 2.8 million, and now, it can also be sold for 1.3 or 400 million." ”
The middle-aged man's eyes widened: "So many, then my painting can be auctioned, I want to shoot." ”
The girl named Xiaoyu was also frightened by Ye Chen's words, and sat on the side covering her mouth and couldn't speak.
"Of course you can shoot up, you wait, I'll open a list for you, you can register here, just hand over the painting to me." Ye Chen said as he wrote the receipt of the picture scroll.
Holding the receipt written by Ye Chen to prove that the picture scroll had been received, the middle-aged man couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, and thanked Ye Chen again and again.
Seeing that Ye Chen was so powerful, the people around him no longer doubted the appraisal level of this old Li Lao's apprentice, and they all rushed forward to ask Ye Chen to appraise calligraphy and paintings, for fear that they would not accept their own things if it was too late.
Ye Chen stood up with a smile and said, "Don't worry, come one by one and line up, otherwise it's not good if it's messy, and I won't help you identify it then." ”
Hearing Ye Chen's words, everyone hurriedly lined up and waited for Ye Chen's identification. To find this site, please search for "6 Mao" or enter the URL:.
