Chapter 13 Zhang Youzhi and the Fake "Beijing Wine Post"

The second floor of Li's calligraphy and painting shop is the style of a semi-attic, carved railing and jade, incense case incense, very ancient and elegant.

Probably because the time is still early, there is only one guest on the second floor of the entire calligraphy and painting shop. He was guided by the servant and sat down in front of an incense table, and someone brought him tea and refreshments. Chu Feng picked up a piece and tasted it, and found that the refreshments here were much more exquisite than his own, worthy of being a big store, and it was incomparable to the small calligraphy and painting shop in the corner of his house.

The young acquaintance asked Chu Feng in detail, and Chu Feng couldn't directly ask for "Beijing Wine Post", otherwise it would be easy to startle the snake. So I only said that I wanted to write books, and the best of the famous ones.

After a short time, the acquaintance in the green coat and the little hat took out three volumes of calligraphy, unfolded them one by one in front of Chu Feng, and explained: "These three are all local calligraphers' calligraphy, and they are not large, they are all about 100 characters, which is just suitable for copying. If Lang Jun wants to do books, it shouldn't be for the imperial examination, right? If it is just plain and elegant, this work of Mr. Guangyuan is the best to use. Please take a closer look, this succession is not impatient, and the elegance is extraordinary. ”

Chu Feng unfolded the book and took a closer look, and saw that the book style of this book seems to be Mi Fu's "Dechen Post", the text is light and smooth, hearty, left and right dumping, wandering the wreckage, but it is just right, and the meaning of the Tao and the law of harmony.

Of course, although the calligraphy in front of me is "Dechen Post", it is naturally impossible to reach this realm. can listen to what this little acquaintance said, after all, the other party is a local calligraphy and painting master, Chu Feng carefully tasted and played, it was really good, much better than his own calligraphy.

Chu Feng thought to himself, if this character is placed in a thousand years, I am afraid that it will slap the faces of many members of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, and I don't know how much more wonderful it is than their so-called famous artists.

Of course, it is difficult to really compare ancient and modern calligraphy. After all, calligraphy is something that the ancients had to do every day, even if they didn't practice calligraphy, they usually had to write. Not to mention that later generations switched to fountain pens and ballpoint pens to write, and there were very few people who practiced soft pen calligraphy, and with the development of science and technology, few people would pick up the pen to write anymore except for students. Therefore, the decline of calligraphy has become inevitable, and it is impossible to have the elegance of today's national appreciation of calligraphy and painting.

After a thousand years, people's vision is naturally high, but they lack practice and have low eye skills. Today's people may not have seen too many famous works, and their vision is insufficient, but they have more than enough practice. The so-called industry is good at diligence, and this is it.

Chu Feng looked at the bookpost in front of him and couldn't help but praise a few times.

Xiao Zhike also likes people who know goods, at this time, looking at Chu Feng's appreciative expression, he also felt honored, and said with a smile: "The other two, one is Xingcao, which is also written by Mr. Guangyuan." The other one is also written by a well-known local calligrapher, but the pen is more robust in charm, I am afraid that Lang Jun will not like it, so I did not take more of this book. ”

Chu Feng's appearance looks as gentle as jade, and he has the demeanor of a humble gentleman...... To put it bluntly, it is weak. Books are in harmony with people, it is indeed difficult for a person like Chu Feng to write such brave and majestic words, even if he puts in twelve points of effort to learn and imitate, the rewards will inevitably be limited.

This is just like having a heart, and the same is true of calligraphy, find a calligraphy that fits your personality and other factors as much as possible, and practice it to get twice the result with half the effort.

It's just that the ancients practiced calligraphy, and it was not easy to have a famous post in hand, so where would they force too much? Generally, when choosing a bookpost, it is based on the good or bad first, and then the fit.

Regarding Chu Feng's weakness, this is the implicit meaning of the little acquaintance's words, Chu Feng naturally understood, and couldn't help laughing at himself.

Although I have become a little familiar with the practice of Wufowl Opera in the past few days, the change of physical fitness is not so simple, just like calligraphy and painting, it needs to be accumulated over time.

After a careful examination, Chu Feng found that the other strong strokes were similar in appearance to these two Mr. Guangyuan's characters, both at the same level, not much better, but the style was very different.

casually asked the price, the three calligraphy pieces are all around the price of eight times, which is almost eight taels of silver, which is really not cheap!

Seeing Chu Feng's face with a deep groan, Xiao Zhike observed freely, guessing the other party's thoughts.

"To tell you the truth, I was going to buy it and give it to my father-in-law...... This kind of strong character is the most in his mind, but he has always liked the calligraphy of famous artists, after all, his face is ......" Chu Feng smiled slightly, "Little brother, is there a calligraphy that is not too expensive and has a font similar to this one?" As long as it is a famous one, the size of the book is secondary. ”

Xiao Zhike was stunned when he heard this, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be a gift for people, and it is indeed a good book for everyone!" It's just that the small ones don't have to ask, Lang Jun, what price do you probably want, after all, this kind of thing, it is possible to spend a lot of money for a book......"

"I can't afford that." Chu Feng hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's best to buy it for dozens of dollars." ”

Xiao Zhike groaned slightly, and said: "It's not that you can't buy it, but the size may be smaller, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

Chu Feng's heart moved slightly, knowing that the other party might be about to come up with the topic, but his face was still casual, and he thought about it: "If you can't have the best of both worlds, it's better to focus on the famous family!" ”

"Good! Lang Jun waited, we do have a few similar calligraphy in our store, I will take them out for Lang Jun to taste. ”

After Xiao Zhike finished speaking, he went, and Chu Feng played with the empty teacup in his hand, with some vague anticipation in his heart.

The person next to him, who was in charge of serving tea and pouring water, came over and asked Chu Feng if he needed to fill the tea again, Chu Feng nodded and thanked him with a smile.

The number of guests downstairs gradually increased, the sweeping has been completed, and the whole calligraphy and painting shop has become more and more lively. This calligraphy and painting shop not only sells calligraphy and painting, but also sells pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Looking down from the second floor, I only feel that the clothes are fluttering, the exchanges are elegant, and there is really a bit of the taste of "talking and laughing" written on the plaque.

After about half a pillar of incense, Xiao Zhike walked over with two things in his hand, and smiled at Chu Feng: "Lang Jun has been waiting for a long time, I went to the warehouse to look for it, and I was actually thinking about this fan in my heart, but I suddenly remembered that we had just obtained this codex in our store a few days ago, so I took it to Lang Jun to take a look." ”

Chu Feng smiled quietly, watching the little acquaintance slowly unfold the fan and the codex, the former Chu Feng just glanced by, the codex just opened a small corner, and his heart moved, knowing that there was a spectrum!

He had already traced the "Beijing Wine Post" hundreds of times, and he recognized the book at a glance.

But Chu Feng didn't go directly to see the calligraphy, but took the lead in picking up the folding fan to play with it, and exclaimed: "Zhike is really delicate, if the price of famous calligraphy and painting is too difficult, but the fan is different, the words are few but exquisite, it is indeed a good way." ”

When the little acquaintance heard Chu Feng's praise, he immediately smiled and said: "This fan is Zhang Boyi's handwriting, Zhang Boyi is good at seal calligraphy, and the four words 'poetry heirloom' were originally written by Master Zhang to his friends, or our boss asked for a lot of money last year." ”

Zhang Boyi is Zhang Youzhi, "Xuanhe Book Pedigree" records that his seal book is "since Li Si seal law forgets, and get a yang ice, after the yang ice gets a Xu Xuan, and Youzhi is in the gate of Xuanzhi, its Youyou, Xia Zhen", its ability to learn from the strengths of all families can be seen.

After a thousand years, there is no Zhang Boyi's book in circulation, but according to historical records, the seal script on Yan Liben's extremely famous "Bu Yuan Tu" was written by Zhang Boyi.

When Chu Feng heard that this was Zhang Boyi's method, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly picked up the fan and took a closer look. I saw that these four seal books are upright and full, tactful and smooth, no wonder they are called "jade chopsticks", and they are as smooth and soft as ivory chopsticks, which is extraordinary.

Chu Feng admired again and again, and couldn't put it down.

Seeing Chu Feng's performance like this, Xiao Zhike couldn't help but smile and said: "Lang Jun, this folding fan is definitely a good gift for people, although it is only a simple four words, but the meaning is good, and it is a famous handwriting, no one can find fault." You look at the seal in the lower left corner, which is also Zhang Boyi's personal seal, which is absolutely extraordinary. ”

Chu Feng followed what he said, and sure enough, he found that the red seal of the word "chapter" in the lower left corner of the fan was also the same seal script, an excellent good character.

It was inevitable that there was some itching in his heart, and Chu Feng had to warn himself in his heart: Chu Feng, Chu Feng, you are here to catch thieves, not to go shopping! Don't let these things get you in the way!

So he took a deep breath, calmed his mind slightly, and asked the little acquaintance: "This is indeed a masterpiece, I don't know how much it costs to buy it?" ”

Xiao Zhike smiled: "Although it is just a fan, but after all, it is Zhang Boyi's handwriting, and our owner's offer is sixty yuan, what do you think?" ”

Chu Feng groaned and smiled: "Sixty runs, not much, but definitely a lot." Fifteen words are really every word. The other one......"

Moving his gaze to the highlight of the "Beijing Wine Post", Chu Feng pretended to be careless.

"This one is a real master's work," Xiao Zhike pointed to the lower left corner of the "Beijing Wine Post" and said with a smile, "Although it is only a handwritten letter, it is Su Dongpo's handwriting, and the handwriting and penmanship quality are not picky!" However, if you want to give a gift to your family and friends, I recommend sending this fan. It's just that you said you like to read books, so I took this one for you to see. ”

Chu Feng seemed to have seen it for the first time, and enjoyed the "Beijing Wine Post" carefully. Take a closer look, this calligraphy is really inappropriate at the end of some skimming, it seems that it is undoubtedly recolored after the second layer is removed!

Of course, if you haven't seen the original post of "Beijing Wine Post", I'm afraid you won't be able to see the problem at all. The slight imperfections at the ends are not much different from the slight smudging of the paper, and even if the connoisseur takes a closer look, he may not be able to see the problem.

Chu Feng had to admit that the imitation methods in this store were really clever!
