Chapter 20 Zixu Shanglintu
What girl doesn't like others to praise her for being beautiful, especially a beautiful girl likes others to praise her for being beautiful. Zhen Wen is no exception.
Li Rujia took Zhen Wen's hand and said, "You can go with me to see the sect master." ”
The reason why Li Rujia came to Zhen Wen was also a little selfish. Last time Yun redistributed the pills, because Zhen Wen didn't work in Qingyun Building, and she was performing in other places at the time, she didn't get it. This time, she wanted to take this opportunity to ask Yun Zhong to give Zhen Wen another pill.
Now that the show is over, it's time for the charity auction. Yun Chonggang wanted to leave, but saw Li Rujia walking towards this side from a distance, so he waited for her here. Li Rujia approached, and Yun Zhong smiled: "Secretary Li, why didn't I see you when I watched the show just now?"
Li Rujia glanced at him and said, "The sect master was sleeping on the sofa during the performance, so naturally he wouldn't see me." It turned out that Yun Zhong felt that the performance was really boring, so he began to sit on the sofa and practice. Doesn't it look like you're sleeping? Li Rujia said again: "Let me introduce you." This is my good sister Zhen Wen. You didn't hear that song she sang just now. ”
Yun Zhong smiled wryly, and then said, "It turned out to be Miss Zhen Wen, it's really rude." Yun Zhong suddenly saw that the martial arts that Zhen Wen practiced turned out to be the martial arts he left back then. So he said, "It turns out that you are also a disciple of my Qingyun Sect. ”
Zhen Wen saw that the god-like character in his mind was so young, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a while. It wasn't until Yun Chong spoke to her that he came to his senses, and he knelt down and said, "Meet the sect master." ”
Yun Zhong stretched out his hand to hold her up, and said, "You don't need so many courtesies. How many times have I told them, but they don't listen. You'll have to listen to me this time. "Yun Zhong is very distressed. The etiquette of cultivating people is still the ancient kneeling ceremony, which seems a little strange today. So Yun Zhong asked them to change to bowing, but they still shouldn't be able to come for a while.
Yun Zhong saw that Li Rujia wanted to speak and stopped, so he asked, "Secretary Li, is there anything you want me to help with?"
Li Rujia saw him asking, and said: "Last time, the sect master gave Dan, and Sister Zhen Wen happened to perform in other places, and she didn't get it. So I want to ask the sect master for another pill, but I don't know if the sect master will agree?"
Yun Zhong smiled: "I thought it was a big deal, it turned out that it was just a tonifying and nourishing qi pill. I've got a lot of them here. By the way, didn't I distribute it according to the number of people last time, how can there be people who haven't received it. Could it be that An Tianshi swallowed it alone? ”
Yun Zhong said this purely as a joke. It's just a pill of tonifying and benefiting qi, even if An Tianshi really swallows it all, Yun Zhong probably won't say anything. But these words are different in Li Rujia's ears. Li Rujia hurriedly said: "No, no, no." Manager An did distribute all the pills. But that's just the people who work in the Qingyun Building. There are still many people in our Qingyun Sect in Hunan who don't work in the Qingyun Building, so they don't get any of them. ”
I didn't think about this, "It's my negligence." How many outer disciples of the Qingyun Sect are working in Hunan Province?"
Li Rujia said: "I don't know the specific number, but there are at least 100,000." ”
Yun Zhong exclaimed: "So much. Then my elixir is not enough, it seems that I will have to refine some after a while. After speaking, he took out two Tonifying Qi Pills and gave one to Zhen Wen and Li Rujia each, and said, "This is even better than the one hundred and eight you got last time." One for each of you. ”
Li Rujia didn't expect that she also had a share, and said, "Thank you, sect master." ”
Zhen Wen also took the pill and said, "Thank you for the gift of the sect master." ”
Yun remembers that there will be an auction later, maybe there will be some treasures on it. So he said, "Let's go see the auction together." ”
Li Rujia hurriedly said: "I still have something to do, you and Sister Zhen Wen can go." Then he smiled strangely at Zhen Wen and left in a hurry.
Looking at Li Rujia's fast figure, Yun Zhong said: "Secretary Li's cultivation has really improved a lot, and he even runs so fast. ”
Zhen Wen smiled after hearing this, she naturally knew that Li Rujia was creating an opportunity for herself to be alone with the sect master. Unexpectedly, the sect master only saw that her cultivation had improved a lot. It seems that the cultivators are very pure.
The charity auction is held at the Integrity Auction House. After An Tianshi made some necessary opening remarks, the auction officially began. Yun Zhong and Zhen Wen arrived just in time for the auction of the first exhibits.
The first exhibit is a scroll painting, entitled "Zixu Shanglin Tu". The fame of this painting is extremely loud, and it can be regarded as one of the famous paintings.
There are two most famous paintings in ancient China, one is "Qingming Riverside Map", and the other is this volume "Zixu Shanglin Map". The two paintings also have one thing in common, that is, the original work has not been found so far. However, the few fakes copied by later generations are also very expensive. All of them have been auctioned for millions of dollars. I really don't know what price the original will fetch for the original.
Yan Song, a powerful minister of the Ming Dynasty, was also a person who loved painting. Yan Song leaned towards the government and the opposition back then, and many people gave him gifts. One of them did what he liked and gave him two paintings. Those two paintings are "Qingming Riverside Picture" and "Zixu Shanglin Picture". Later, the war continued, and the two original paintings did not know where they were. Two copies of the forgery of "Zixu Shanglintu" are in the National Palace Museum in Taipei, and the remaining six well-painted paintings are in the collection of private collectors. I didn't expect to see the real work of "Zixu Shanglintu" here.
This volume of "Zixu Shanglin Tu" is 12 meters long, 50 centimeters wide, large blue and green color, and there are as many as 13 collection seals on it, one of which is Yan Song's seal. The frontispiece has Xie Hongxuan's inscription "Shanglin Shengjing", and there is an obvious scratch at the end of the volume, which must be the artist's signature. But it is not known who scraped it off for what purpose.
"Zixu Shanglin Tu" is also known as "Hunting Picture of the Son of Heaven", the picture is colorful and the brush and ink are fine. The whole map is divided into the emperor and queen sitting in the palace, the emperor dragon boat, the emperor riding the chariot, the emperor riding a horse to watch the hunting, the emperor taking the stage to watch the sea, etc., which fully restores the whole process of the Son of Heaven hunting. The picture is all drawn with natural mineral material lapis lazuli, and the characters are vividly portrayed, and the scene is immense. It seems that this painting is genuine. I just don't know who took it out.
The people who watched the performance were all figures from Hunan, but almost all of the people who participated in the auction were wealthy businessmen from other provinces. Because most of the wealthy merchants in Hunan are cultivators, they are not interested in these things. Would rather use the money to buy some elixir. Most of the wealthy businessmen from other places are serious businessmen. Some of them are knowledgeable people, and some of them are for the sake of vassal elegance.
"Zixu Shanglin Tu" is worthy of being one of the two great strange paintings in ancient times, and the low price has reached 8 million. But Rao is such a high price, there are still people shouting higher, and they have been shouting more than 10 million, and then there are fewer and fewer people who increase the price.
One of these auctioneers stands out. Everyone else is in a suit and leather shoes, and their shoes are shiny. And he was wearing a green army coat, the skin on his face was a little loose, obviously not young, and a pair of glasses with thick lenses hanging from the bridge of his nose, which looked like a scholar.
