Because cultivators and ordinary people are originally two worlds, although there is a knife at the side door of the academy, Ning Que's current status in the hearts of the Tang people still mainly comes from the status of the great calligrapher, and in the hearts of practitioners such as the old shopkeeper, the status of the Ning family is even more prominent.

It is precisely because of his reverence and admiration for Ning Que that the little maid can get the blue cloth package, but the shopkeeper is very shameful to the little maid...... and the word "unprovoked" refers to conduct, in the eyes of the old shopkeeper, the little maid steals the owner's property, which is really tasteless.

The old shopkeeper thought for a moment, disdainful of the little maid's behavior, and a little difficult to suppress the temptation of money, and asked in a low voice: "Since the little maid stole it, we swallowed it, and she didn't dare to report to the official, nor did she dare to let everyone know about it, you see, otherwise we ......."

If you don't want to die, you stop thinking about it. ”

Listening to the words of the old shopkeeper, the boss of Yishiju frowned slightly, and warned sharply: "Don't make this discussion in the future, I heard that the identity of the little maid is not ordinary, and she has an excellent relationship with Her Royal Highness the princess, and the news from the red sleeve move, Ning everyone treats this maid differently." ”

"Even if she is finally admitted to the room by the Ning family, the little maid is just a greedy woman, how can she be worthy of a character like the Ning family. ”

The old shopkeeper suddenly thought of something and said: "The owner, you are not ordinary scholars, we sell it so secretly, will we have the same topic?"

The boss said: "That little maid is very favored, all the seals of the Ning family are kept by her, and the verification and sale documents have been obtained, so these are naturally not thieves, even if the Ning family finds out about this matter in the future, they can only be investigated to the little maid, but we don't have to be held accountable according to Tang Law." ”

The old cabinet praised: "The owner's actions are really reassuring. ”

The boss picked up the blue cloth package on the table and asked, "Are they all in the side courtyard?"

The old shopkeeper nodded.

A stone dwelling in the west side of the courtyard, hidden behind the main three-story building, under the nine-curved green trees, the lake breeze is so slow, the most quiet...... Several men walked out of the room and saluted.

Some of these men are from the Song Kingdom, some are from the Southern Jin Dynasty, and some are from Yangguan in the Tang Dynasty...... There is also a master craftsman in Chang'an Xiangmo Studio, who is the chief figure in the appraisal of calligraphy and painting in their respective countries, yes, whether they are gray-haired or indifferent, there is a look of pride and confidence between their eyebrows and eyes.

"Brother Moshi...... You're here too?"

"Brother Jiefu...... Who is the silent man under the Portuguese chrysanthemum, he looks a little familiar. ”

"Tao Nian seems to have seen it once in the Yue Imperial Palace. ”

With the exchange of identities, the proud and confident expressions in the eyes of these people gradually turned into consternation, because they found that the rest of the people in the courtyard were not weaker than themselves in the industry, and many of them had been famous for a long time, but they had never seen them, and they did not expect to meet in this small courtyard today.

The Mo Shi brother stroked his beard and said with emotion: "Yishiju has really been beautiful all these years, and he can invite so many of us here in such a short period of time. ”

The old man, who was called Brother Jiefu, shook his head and said with emotion: "If it weren't for the fact that the things sold this time are too rare and too precious, how would you and I gather here." ”

Referring to the details of this sale, several men, including the silent man under the Portuguese island, stood closer, lowered their voices and began to discuss, while also seeing how much the other party knew about the matter.

"How many volumes are there in existence today?"

"No one knows the exact number, only that there are the most in the imperial study of the palace, and I heard that His Majesty had looted more than half of it in the old pen room. ”

Brother Mo Shi said bitterly: "Hidden in the dim imperial study, you can't look at it, you can't appreciate it, you can't be realistic, and the people can't get close to it, it's really ......."

He wanted to criticize the Tang Emperor for his perverse behavior, but although Chang'an was in power, he still didn't dare to say it.

"There are a few copies of the Sacrificial Wine Lord and the Wang University Scholar's Mansion, and there should be about four volumes in other mansions, but these old adults have hidden things in their own mansions, which are even tighter than those hidden by His Majesty, and they don't take them out for others to see. ”

"There are a lot of chicken soup posts, but no one has seen the original, and it is rumored to be in the Wang University Scholar's Mansion. ”

"Everyone is not famous, but some lucky people bought some genuine works in Lin Forty-seven Lane, and in the year they were sold at extremely high prices, and most of them changed hands twice and then disappeared, totaling about twelve volumes. ”

"I don't know how many volumes Ichiju took this time, I don't know if there is a middle hall?"

"It's impossible to have a wide width in the middle hall. ”

"If it's a book, it must be at least more than three, otherwise the owner of this stone house won't take so much money to invite all of us here. ”

The calligraphy and painting appraisers were discussing enthusiastically, and at this moment, the courtyard door was pushed open with a creak, and the boss of Yishiju walked in with a blue cloth package.

Everyone followed the boss back to the flower hall, their eyes never left the blue cloth package he was carrying, a little confused, and full of ardent anticipation.

The boss gently rested the blue cloth wrap on the table, stretched out one hand, and motioned for please.

The old shopkeeper brought two cronies and carried a towel of water.

The calligraphy and painting appraisers immediately surrounded them, washed their hands with the fastest speed and the most careful attitude, dried them with towels, and then took the oil-absorbing tissue paper handed over by the shopkeeper, carefully sucked up the residual water and oil between their fingers, and then surrounded the blue cloth package.

The middle-aged man known as Brother Moshi...... Rolling sleeves raised his hands, looked at the rough blue cloth wrapping, and said unhappily: "When did Yishiju fall into this winning appearance? ”

For such a professional who appreciates books all his life, the boss of Yishiju can't afford to offend, but the professional habits developed in his bones, ps::, make them unable to tolerate the scene that Yantao saw.

The boss of Yishiju smiled bitterly, and without explaining, he reached out to unwrap the blue cloth package, revealing the slightly flat square box inside, which was also made of very poor straw cardboard.

Brother Mo Shi became more and more displeased, reached out and opened the box, and then froze beside the table.

The whole flower hall became silent.

The appraisers looked at the paper in the box and were speechless in shock, and felt that their eyes were a little flowery, and after a while, someone exclaimed in disbelief: "Seven!"

The boss walked over and sat down, picked up the teacup and drank it. , smiled and said, "You guys look first." ”

The appraisers gathered around the table and carefully removed the bookmarks from the boxes, all of which were among the best in the business, and it didn't take long to confirm that the seven bookmarks in the boxes were genuine.

Although there are still doubts about the time of the calligraphy, everyone thinks that it should be newly written, but this does not affect the value of the calligraphy itself, so the appraisers were shocked that they did not expect that Yishiju's handwriting this time was so large, and it can even be said that except in the imperial study of the Tang Imperial Palace, there is no place where so many authentic works can be seen.

What shocked them the most was the bookmark at the bottom of the box.

To prepare, it's a crumpled piece of note.

But in their eyes, that piece of note paper is more precious than the most expensive stream and mountain order in the legend.

Because this sticky note has the word chicken soup in it.

"Although it should be genuine, it's just ...... Everyone knows that the original chicken soup paste was bought by the scholar Wang for 4,000 taels of silver, and now it is hidden in the bachelor's mansion. ”

Brother Mo Shi frowned and said, "Could it be that this one is newly copied by everyone?"

Everyone at the table frowned and pondered, thinking that there was indeed something wrong with this.

Brother Mo Shi cautiously grabbed the two corners of the note paper with his fingertips, lifted it into the air, and looked at the clear sunlight outside the flower hall, trying to see what was wrong inside.

A Song State appraiser standing opposite him suddenly chuckled, pointed to the note paper and said, "There are words." ”

When everyone looked at it, there was indeed a line of beautiful small characters behind the note.

"This one is real. ”

"Who wrote this?"

The Song State appraiser was puzzled and even a little angry and shouted: "Even if this chicken soup post is newly copied, it is considered an extremely precious product, how can you write on the back at will!"

Brother Mo Shi shook his head, looked at the small line of words and said with emotion: "Except for everyone Ning, who can write such good words, if he writes it, not only will it not destroy its value, but it will add more color." ”

"Could it be that this chicken soup paste is the original?"

"Youning everyone signed as a guarantee, which is naturally the original. ”

"Then the one that Scholar Wang bought with a lot of money?"

"The ...... of the prince's house Nature is fake. ”

The house was full of silence.

Although none of them are cultivators, they have all heard the legendary story about the chicken soup post, especially with the widespread spread of the chicken soup post in the world, many people think that if the value theory alone, the chicken soup post is close to the flower blooming post treasured in the imperial study.

Someone was shocked and muttered, "How much does this have to be priced?"

"When the prince bought it, it was four thousand taels, which is said to be a friendship leave, and everyone's reputation was beginning to appear at that time. ”

The man who had been silent under the grape trellis in the courtyard before, and was still silent when he entered the flower hall, suddenly said: "Give some time to preach and preach, it can provoke the best ...... of the Wang University Scholar's Mansion."

The man raised his head, looked at the boss of Yishiju and the appraisers, and said, "Thirty thousand, this chicken soup post was sold by my hand, and if it is less than thirty thousand, I will have no face." ”

With these words, the silent man no longer looked like he had before, and he looked confident and proud to the extreme, as if he had drawn a cold knife from his rusty sheath.

The crowd finally recognized who the silent man was.

This man is the most famous seller in the painting and calligraphy shop.

"Good. ”

The boss of Yishiju stood up, and then suddenly remembered Shui Zhu'er's confession, and after thinking for a while, he looked at the seller and said, "It's just that there is a rule to be written, and everyone has the right to choose the buyer last." ”

The man frowned slightly, for he had rarely heard of such a request.

The owner didn't explain much.

The reason why he did this is because the origin of these seven bookposts is a little disgraceful, although from the Tang Law, Yishiju does not have to take responsibility, but when the time comes, if this matter is exposed, Yishiju must be prepared for the bookpostes to be taken back, Ti Tao wrote such a provision, first of all, to give face to the Ning family, and secondly, the sale is invalid, so as to appease those big people who are qualified to buy books.
