The days flowed slowly, and after another three days, Lu's calligraphy and painting store sold two more calligraphy and paintings, each earning a few hundred dollars, although it is not much, but the passenger flow has a faint increase trend, which is many times stronger than the previous cold court.

Lu Wenduan was just concerned about this kind of news, and he didn't care too much. Lao Zhang felt that this Chu Langjun was really powerful, as long as it was a guest who entered the store to inquire, Chu Langjun could find the other party's favorite thing almost in a moment, which was so powerful that he was really shocked.

When he said this to Chu Feng, Chu Feng just smiled and said: "Brother Zhang is too exalted to me, I just know a little more about calligraphy and painting, so I can roughly distinguish the type that the guests want." ”

"The words of those guest officials, some of them are described quite clearly, and some of them are in the clouds, I guess he himself is not clear, but Chu Langjun can figure it out, this is amazing!" Lao Zhang exclaimed.

Chu Feng shook his head and smiled, he didn't accept this feat, and only quietly did what he could.

He has been asking Mr. Wenduan about carving seals for the past few days, and the old gentleman pointed him out a few points, and took out a set of tools and some clay seals for him to practice on his own, and said: "Seals inherit the way of calligraphy and painting, since you are good at calligraphy, you should know that these things can not be learned in a day and a night." Engraving with calligraphy as the foundation, aesthetics as the ruler, seals, seals and seals go their own way, but they are secretly integrated. However, the engraving of the seal is more similar to the category of carvers, and young people like you who are good at books should still focus on the handwriting itself. You know, carving on a seal is completely different from writing on silk paper, and it is a great science. ”

Mr. Wen Duan patiently explained to Chu Feng: "Chu Lang, you are a bit talented in calligraphy, it stands to reason that if you want to go further, you should study famous calligraphy." But you have also read the books in our store, and there are no good works, which are useless for your practice. It is really difficult to learn the way of calligraphy and painting without a teacher, but it is a feasible way to touch the class. Although the technique of engraving is not quite the same as calligraphy, in fact, it comes from the same source, and understanding the way of calligraphy through engraving is what I call 'touch bypass'. Moreover, you are still young, and I see that your handwriting is a little lacking. The best practice for engraving is finger strength and wrist strength, which is just right for you. ”

When Chu Feng heard this, he was naturally patient and taught, and he was overjoyed. In the past few days, in addition to visiting shops, selling calligraphy and paintings, and practicing Wufowl Opera in the morning and evening, I have followed Mr. Wen Duan to learn carving.

The old gentleman asked him to practice with the mud chapter first, saying that the mud chapter is the softest, easy to control, and most suitable for beginners. In the Song Dynasty, the most widely used seal material was wood, rhino horn, ivory, etc. were also common, but in fact, as an environmentalist, Chu Feng did not like to use this animal material. It's just that after all, in this era, he can do without it, but it is impossible to dissuade others, so he can only "clean himself".

After half a day of practice, Chu Feng only felt that his fingers were sore and unbearable, almost cramping, even if he just hung on the table without exerting any force, he couldn't help but tremble slightly, just like muscle cramps after exercise.

Mr. Wen Duan saw it in his eyes and said with a smile: "Don't worry, from my observation on the side, you are more focused, but your hand strength is insufficient, which requires slow practice." Look at the old man's hands," the old gentleman spread out his right hand and pointed to the calluses on it, "This is all decades of kung fu, and the younger generations will practice it slowly!" ”

Chu Feng carefully looked at the old gentleman's hand, and then realized that it was strange and good-looking, the muscles and bones were not prominent, but it implied full strength, quite a bit of dragon momentum, implying thunder, and couldn't help but admire. Looking at his hands again, although there are some calluses on it that are usually sharpened with a pen, but on the whole it is still slender and delicate, compared with the old man's hands, it looks like a daughter's home, which is really embarrassing.

Lu Wenduan saw Chu Feng's thoughts, and couldn't help laughing: "Chu Lang is a handsome young man, a beautiful wind god, and can be good at writing and ink, and has extraordinary talents, quite the style of Wei Shubao. If you are ashamed of yourself, no one else will have to go out and meet others. ”

Wei Shubao is Wei Jue, a person recognized as one of the four beautiful men in ancient China, who is said to be knowledgeable but physically weak, handsome and extraordinary. The reason why he couldn't afford to get sick in the end was that when he was in his twenties, he walked on the street and was surrounded by other girls who did not let him leave, and reported him to Qiong Yao and Qiong Ju, which was caused by exhaustion. It is also the so-called "watching and killing Wei Jue".

Mr. Wen Duan actually compared such a beautiful man with himself, how dare Chu Feng climb high, blushed slightly, and shook his head again and again.

It's no wonder that the Song Dynasty was more literal than military, and the atmosphere of the Wei and Jin dynasties was indeed somewhat similar to the atmosphere of extreme aesthetic admiration, and the aesthetics were naturally similar. The literati of the Song Dynasty wanted to be elegant and chic, chanting the wind and making the moon, cooking wine and tea, and talking about wonderful rewards.

The real rise of seals has to wait until the Ming and Qing dynasties, although there are literati to play, but it is only a small way, not comparable to calligraphy and painting articles, poems and songs.

Chu Feng learned this, firstly, because of his own interests, and secondly, because he had a famous teacher by his side, it was a pity not to learn. He has always been a casual person, and he is indeed idle now, although he has only lived here for a few days, but sometimes, in the dead of night, Chu Feng is also secretly thinking that if he can live here for a lifetime, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing.

But...... If I remember correctly, the Fangla Uprising should be in the late Northern Song Dynasty, in the land south of the Yangtze River, there will be wars here, even if I don't seek wealth and glory, at least I should use the little historical knowledge I have to keep myself and Mr. Wenduan's peace...... Just, what should be done? Chu Feng didn't have much planning in his heart.

In the early morning of this day, Chu Feng, as usual, got up early to wash, exercise, and eat, came to the front and opened the door panel, and just pushed open the door of the store, he saw a scholar in thin clothes and without a crown hat standing there with a small cloth bag in his arms, with a pale face.

"This guest ......"

Chu Feng was slightly startled, and just wanted to ask carefully, he heard the scholar say, "Do you accept Su Dongpo's handwriting?" ”

"What?"

Su Dongpo's name is unknown to everyone and no one knows, as soon as he heard such a name early in the morning, Chu Feng almost thought that there was something wrong with his ears, and looked at the down-and-out scholar in front of him and blinked.

The down-and-out scholar seemed to be extremely thoughtful, and at this time, seeing Chu Feng's reaction, he pursed his lips and turned around and wanted to leave. twisted his body slightly, and felt that it was inappropriate, so he gritted his teeth and spoke again: "I'm in a hurry to use money, aren't you a calligraphy and painting shop here, do you accept it or not!" ”

Seeing this, Chu Feng didn't dare to be abrupt anymore, and said kindly: "This brother is not in a hurry, let's talk inside." Brother Zhang, please prepare some tea and refreshments. ”

"Okay!" Lao Zhang answered inside.

Chu Feng stood in front of the door and smiled, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of "please" to the house.

The scholar thought about it again and again, but finally stomped his feet and walked in.

Chu Feng looked at the scholar's resolute appearance, thinking to himself that Su Dongpo's Mobao, if he was not forced into a desperate situation, I am afraid that no one would want to sell it. It would be nice if I could help him, but that's the other side of the story...... That's Su Shi's handwriting! I'd love to see it!

My heart felt like grass had grown, and it was itchy and uncomfortable. Chu Feng looked at the scholar tightly guarding the things in his arms, and thought that Su Shi's true work must be in that small cloth bag. Even in later generations, although Chu Feng had seen Su Shi's ink in the museum, it was all separated by a layer of cold glass, and it was always one layer off.

Nowadays, even if you can't buy or sell, you can really see the real works of thousands of years ago! If you can, you can even touch it!

Just thinking of this, Chu Feng's heart was already beating wildly, and it was difficult to settle down.

The down-and-out scholar walked into the room, looked around, showed a little dissatisfaction on his face, and sat down next to the tea table a little cramped.

Chu Feng knew in his heart that the other party must be in poor condition because of the poor quality of the calligraphy and paintings in the store, so he didn't have much confidence in this business.

Although he was inevitably anxious, Chu Feng still took a deep breath, forced himself to settle down, and warned himself: Don't be anxious, it is still unclear whether the other party has a genuine handiwork. Although Su Shi's characters have been handed down in later generations, most of them are copies. Although the facsimile can be vaguely seen, it is almost the same as hearsay, and there are no more layers in the middle. Even if the other party really took out the handbook, he would not dare to draw conclusions easily in terms of identification, and he would have to let Mr. Wen Duan help take a look.

Of course, that's not the most important thing these days. The scholar in front of him was obviously a little uneasy, maybe he would get up and leave when he didn't agree with him, and when the time came, let alone appreciation, he might not even be able to take a look at things. If you really pass by like this, won't you be resentful and regret your mistakes?

So, be sure to take your time and not be in a hurry.

"This calligraphy and painting store has just opened, and many of the books and paintings in stock are still on the way and have not yet been delivered. Therefore, it is inevitable that the furnishings outside will fall into the trap now, and I hope that this brother will not care. Chu Feng stepped forward and sat down opposite the scholar and smiled.

It's not a complete lie when he says this, he hasn't had time to buy good words and paintings, and now he doesn't know whose house they are, isn't that "on the road".

When the scholar heard this, his face really softened a little, but he said with a little impatience in his mouth: "I'm here to sell calligraphy, not to buy calligraphy and paintings, what kind of calligraphy and painting your store has nothing to do with me." ”

This was not very polite, Chu Feng was not annoyed, poured the tea brought by Lao Zhang for the scholar, pushed the tea to the opposite side, and said with a smile: "Brother Tai came early, I'm afraid I still have time to eat, right?" If you don't give up, you might as well eat a little, it's better than nothing. ”
