Chapter 19: Exactly the same picture
Following.
He Shen went out with the thirty "Flying Snow Pictures in Wangcheng" painted by Ye Yutian all night last night.
Yesterday, in fact, some customers regretted that they did not buy it, so they ordered a few.
I thought that these 30 paintings would be sold out in one morning, but by the time the sun went down, there were still four left.
Ye Yutian got up at this time, and after washing, he saw He Shen returning home.
"What's going on?" Ye Yutian asked.
According to yesterday's popularity, thirty pieces of "Flying Snow in Wangcheng" should not be sold until now.
"Master, there is a new painting in Mozhu Pavilion this morning, and the attention of many dignitaries has been diverted, and there are many fewer people who come to buy our paintings. He Shen said.
"What's new?"
"Fengqi Wutong Picture". He Shen said: "This painting is also painted by Liu Chuqing, a disciple of the painter's personal lineage. ”
The name of the painting is Huang Chen, and its name is very loud in Wangcheng, which can be said to be the first person in the painting of the Eastern Xuanguo, and his cultivation is unfathomable.
However, his paintings have long been no longer sold in this world, and only one is hung in the king's imperial study in the Eastern Xuan Kingdom.
In addition, there are many disciples of Mozhu Pavilion, but there is only one disciple, and that is Liu Chuqing.
Usually every three or two months, Liu Chuqing will create a painting, and then take it to the Qian Family Chamber of Commerce's auction hall for auction.
It's just that "Wangcheng Flying Snow" appeared in the first half of the month, but it didn't even take a month, and another "Fengqi Wutong Map" appeared, which surprised many people.
It is said that this painting is extraordinary, better than the "Flying Snow in the Royal City", and many people have begun to prepare silver taels, as if they are going to take it down.
Therefore, indirectly led to Ye Yutian's copy of the "Flying Snow Map of Wangcheng", which gradually became unpopular.
"Could it be that the disciple of the Painting Venerable Sect did this on purpose?" Ye Yutian doubted in his heart.
"Master, do you still want to paint?"
"Since it's not profitable, then don't paint. Ye Yutian shook his head.
Although "Wangcheng Flying Snow" can still sell for some money, he is more interested in the "Fengqi Wutong Picture".
"When will the auction of "Fengqi Wutong Picture" start?"
"It seems like tomorrow. He Shen replied.
The auction hall of the Qian Family Chamber of Commerce, after obtaining a good auction item, will generally build momentum one day in advance, in order to attract attention.
"Then let's also go to the auction hall of the Qian Family Chamber of Commerce. ”
There are many industries involved in the Qian Family Chamber of Commerce, and the most famous of them is naturally the auction house.
And a place like an auction house is not accessible to everyone.
Ye Yutian, as a colt today, is naturally qualified to enter.
......
The next day.
Before the auction, there will be an exhibition meeting, that is, the items to be auctioned will be brought to the exhibition hall for everyone to see.
If someone catches their eye, then they will naturally buy it, which is also equivalent to a publicity before the auction.
"May I ask where is the "Fengqi Wutong Map"?" Ye Yutian casually asked a staff member.
"Please follow me. "The reception staff led the way with a polite smile.
Then, a beautiful work was presented in front of the eyes.
A fiery red sacred bird, standing on the branches, that can be a towering tree, named Sycamore.
Ye Yutian looked at this painting, and suddenly had an illusion, as if the eyes of the divine bird and phoenix were looking at him, as if he was about to fly out of the painting.
"Awesome. Ye Yutian praised in his heart.
He stole the painting technique of "Flying Snow in the Royal City", and now he has a little understanding of the way of painting.
At this time, after seeing the "Fengqi Wutong Map", I was amazed.
I thought that this woman named Liu Chuqing really drew profoundly.
"Ding! found the "Fengqi Wutong Map", did you steal it?"
At this time, a voice sounded in Ye Yutian's mind.
"Steal!"
It cost a total of 20 XP.
This is all Ye Yutian's hard-earned earnings, and now there are 20 experience points left.
did not continue to stay in the auction hall, Ye Yutian hurried home.
In a short time, a "Picture of Phoenix Plane Tree" was completed, which is exactly the same as the original work of the auction house.
Immediately, He Shen was asked to take the painting to the market and sell it.
As a result, an interesting thing happened.
Liu Chuqing's "Fengqi Wutong Picture" that was auctioned by the Qian Family Chamber of Commerce has not yet been bought, but another "Fengqi Wutong Picture" has appeared on the market.
Ye Yu Tianming is priced at a price of only 1,000 taels.
The starting price of the Qian Family Chamber of Commerce is 1,500 taels, but the final transaction price must be far above this number.
......
The official of the court is a well-known lover of calligraphy and painting in Wangcheng, and the last time he missed the "Flying Snow in Wangcheng", he has regretted it, and this time, he will definitely not miss "Fengqi Wutong Picture" again.
At the auction site of the Qian Family Chamber of Commerce, in the end, the official department Shangshu obtained the "Fengqi Wutong Map" at a price of 2,700 taels.
Looking at this exquisite painting, the officials didn't want to take their eyes off.
Of course, good things are just for yourself, but they are not fun.
So, in the afternoon of the same day, I invited a group of friends who are also lovers of calligraphy and painting to visit and appreciate this masterpiece at home.
"What do you think, what do you think of this "Fengqi Wutong Picture"?" said the official Shangshu with a smug smile.
"Wonderful, wonderful!"
"It is worthy of being the masterpiece of the disciples of Mozhu Pavilion painting, and this painting skill is simply the pinnacle. ”
"Painting Taoist monks, painting as soldiers, it is said that the things they draw can come to life. ”
"I think this mythical bird phoenix is a little alive, lifelike, as if it is real. ”
Everyone looked at "Fengqi Wutong Picture" and praised it one after another.
In addition, he looked at the owner of the painting with envy.
The official was very proud, and the smile on his face was very thick.
At this time, someone said, "I think I've seen this painting somewhere?"
Hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to the man.
"Impossible, "Fengqi Wutong Picture" was painted by Liu Chuqing, a disciple of the painter, and today is the first time to put it up for auction, how can there be a second one?"
"Yes, not to mention this royal city, even in the entire Eastern Xuan Kingdom, there are no more than three people who can paint such works. ”
The man smiled awkwardly: "But I did see another one today, and it was exactly the same." If you don't believe it, you can inquire about it, there are at least ten of these "Fengqi Wutong Pictures" now, and they are only sold for 1,000 taels. ”
Naturally, the officials did not believe it at first.
But then I sent someone outside to inquire, and found out that what the friend said was true.
Of course, the "Fengqi Wutong Picture" in his hand must be Liu Chuqing's authentic work.
So, in order to confirm that the "Fengqi Wutong Picture" that only sold for 1,000 taels in the market was a fake painting, he bought another one back.
After repeated identification of the results, a result is obtained.
These two are exactly the same!!
Of course, a painting and calligraphy appraiser told him that the paper and the ink on it were slightly different.
But what is certain is that there is no difference in the quality of the two paintings, and they are both rare masterpieces.
"I spent an extra 1,700 taels, so why should I use pen, ink and paper?"
At this time, the official Shangshu really beeped the dog in his heart.
Isn't that a cheat?
So in the afternoon of the same day, I went to the auction house of the Qian Family Chamber of Commerce and asked for a refund.
But the auction house is just an intermediary, and the real seller of the paintings is Liu Chuqing of Mozhu Pavilion.
The official Shangshu wanted to cry without tears, but he didn't have the courage to go directly to the Mozhu Pavilion to find trouble.
You must know that the pavilion master of Mozhu Pavilion is an existence that even King Dongxuan has to salute when he sees it.
