After all, Zhongtai is a senior auction house, and cooperation is indispensable in the future. I helped her get through this level, and I'm good for her!
"Boy, are you Xu Zhiyuan?"
Just when Xu Zhiyuan was about to leave and go back to prepare, suddenly a voice came from behind him, and it turned out to be Hu Xiaotian?
"Boss Hu, do you have any advice?"
Hu Xiaotian flashed with a different color, but he didn't expect Xu Zhiyuan to know him, and said with a slight smile: "Since you know Hu, then let's open the skylight and say something bright, I heard that Boss Xu has just opened in Liuli Factory?" β
"That's right, it's just a small business, just a mixed meal."
"Mixed food?" Hu Xiaotian smiled, walked in and warned Xu Zhiyuan in a low voice: "Since you want to eat here, then put your eyes on the bright spots!" Not everyone can mess with them! β
Hu Xiaotian looked at Xu Zhiyuan, after his subordinates inquired about the news just now, no one knew what the origin of this kid was, and he suddenly popped out, but it is certain that he is not a boy with a deep background, what else is this Hu Xiaotian afraid of?
"Oh? Boss Hu is trying to blackmail me? β
"Haha, it's not a threat, it's just telling the truth!" Hu Xiaotian frowned, looked at Xu Zhiyuan who was breezy opposite, and felt a little empty in his heart, he said it so clearly, and the other party was still full of confidence, is there really any killer feature?
"Then don't worry about Boss Hu, remember your words, the mountains and rivers meet, and the future will be long!"
Hu Xiaotian looked at Xu Zhiyuan's back, and really couldn't figure out what confidence this kid had? Okay, since you want to play, Lao Tzu is still afraid of you?
Xu Zhiyuan returned to the store, closed the door, there was not much time, and he was going to visit Sun Zhengyi with the painting the day after tomorrow, so he hurriedly entered the system and contacted Zhang Daqian.
"Xu Gao is polite!"
Zhang Daqian appeared quickly, with a respectful face, last time Xu Zhiyuan quickly solved the heart disease that had plagued him for many years, which made him very grateful, and today the other party took the initiative to contact?
Xu Zhiyuan said politely: "Master Zhang, don't be polite, just call me Xu Zhiyuan, don't dare to call me a master." β
"Okay, Brother Xu, how old is Zhang, don't you mind how well our brothers are commensurate?" Zhang Daqian looked at Xu Zhiyuan and nodded, and said happily: "What is the matter with my brother looking for me today?" β
"Today, the little brother really has something to ask for, please ask the big brother for help!"
Xu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I want to buy a few pictures of your maids, I don't know if it's convenient or not?" β
"This ......"
When Zhang Daqian heard this, his face was embarrassed, and he hesitated a little and said: "Don't hide it from my brother, let alone buy Zhang's clumsy work, it is common to send you a few landscapes, flowers and birds, but this maid ......"
Xu Zhiyuan was stunned, he originally wanted to buy Zhang Daqian's paintings, he should be sure, is he still unwilling?
Zhang Daqian saw that Xu Zhiyuan was a little misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Brother, listen to me, landscapes, flowers and birds, and even characters are fine, but this maid picture? Hey, it's hard to put it into words......"
"When I was only 20 years old, because of the death of my childhood sweetheart's fiancΓ©e, I was disheartened, I went to Ningbo Tiantong Temple to become a monk, and 3 months later I went to Shanghai. At first, when he struggled in the Shanghai painting world, he relied on all imitation ancients, especially the head of the four monks in the early Qing Dynasty, the bitter gourd monk Shi Tao, who thought that even connoisseurs could not distinguish the authenticity. β
Zhang Daqian explained: "At that time, Li Maochang, a wealthy businessman in Ningbo, was also one of the rich people I deceived, and when Li Maochang showed his daughter Li Qiujun the authentic work of Shi Tao that he bought for 50 yuan, she saw at a glance that the painting was fake!" β
"Later, Li Maochang has been looking for it in the Shanghai painting world, and we finally met one day, and we became good friends at first sight."
"I will never forget the scene of the first meeting with Li Qiujun!"
Zhang Daqian said with a happy face: "It was an afternoon in early summer, I came to his house at the invitation of Li Maochang, and as soon as I entered the living room, I was attracted by a huge "Lotus Picture", a residual lotus, a bald stem, a pool of silt, elegant and refined. I can't help but sigh that the painting world is really out of the sky! Looking at this painting, the momentum of the technique is a man, but the font is magnificent, the artistic conception is refined and feminine, which really makes me understand. β
Li Maochang smiled and said: It seems that you are very fond of this painting, can you imagine meeting the owner of the painting?" I replied: It's too late to apprentice, but I don't know if this Ouxiang Hall Master is still in the world? Li Maochang said with a smile that the owner of the painting can meet at night. β
At the beginning of the dinner, the door of the living room was gently pushed open, and a beautiful young woman stood in the afterglow of the setting sun. Her hair was loose in a bun and her face was flushed with running. Li Maochang said with a smile: Qiu'er, this is Zhang Daqian, whom you have always admired. After speaking, he smiled and joked to me: Haven't you seen the master yet? β
After a few seconds, I reacted, pushed away the chair and fell to my knees, shouting: "The junior Shu man Zhang Zhan has seen the master!" β
Xu Zhiyuan listened to Zhang Daqian's story curiously, and he had long known that he had confidants all over the world in his life, and he was a lover of personality. But how can you be so emotional about a woman?
"After that meeting, under the mediation of Li Maochang, I set up a studio in the Ouxiang Hall in the back building where Li Qiujun lived, and the two of us were almost inseparable except for sleeping in separate rooms."
Zhang Daqian rarely showed shyness, and said in a low voice: At that time, I was in my youth, and I was suave, and I had done a lot of things about men and women, and even Li Maochang knew this. But only for this third sister, I never dared to cross the thunder pool by half a step! β
"In the past six months of getting along, I have been regretting all the time, why did we see each other late? Hey, a few years ago, after my cousin died, when I was disheartened, my mother took charge of the marriage and took a concubine the next year. And how can this third lady of the Li family deign to be my concubine? β
"I actually know that the third sister has affection for me, I remember one time, she saw that she was writing a letter to his wife and concubine in Sichuan, and said to me tentatively, if I can accept another eldest lady as a concubine, it should be a boundless blessing, right? But I ......"
Zhang Daqian sighed helplessly and said bitterly: "The next day, I closed the studio for the first time, and I didn't open the door until the evening. The third sister came in with tea, and before she could speak, I knelt down directly and said: "Third sister, although I am young and frivolous, I also know that this life will live for painting and die for painting." Putting aside the love affair between men and women, there is no one but you who have been confidantes in your life! But if I take you as a concubine, I will bring reproach to a generation of talented women, and I will be damned by heaven......
"The third sister immediately cried bitterly, and in the future, we can only be called brother and sister, and it has been many years!"
