Chapter 115 Wu Daozi and Tang Bohu

Young Master Tang opened the long box. Inside was a yellowed scroll tied with a red rope. When he saw the painting, he put on a pair of gloves with both hands and carefully picked up the scroll. The fastest update...

………

""The Picture of Zhong Kui with Ten Fingers" is a work by Wu Daozi, a painting saint from the Tang Dynasty. It is a treasure and has great collection value."

Authentic paintings from the Tang Dynasty, about 1,300 years old, priced at 35 million, really not expensive at all.

Young Master Tang opened the scroll, and Wang Jun took one each. The scroll slowly opened, and a ferocious Zhong Kui appeared in the painting. When Young Master Tang first saw the painting, he felt as if Zhong Kui was about to jump out.

Generally, the scroll is full of various seals, about twenty or so, which means that the owners of these seals once owned the painting.

"How's it going? Brother, is it an authentic work?" Wang Jun asked proudly. His father is a businessman. Although he likes collecting, he is still used to using price to express the preciousness of these precious works of art.

Therefore, on the rows of shelves, the first collection must be the most valuable, facing down in order.

"Well, I feel like it's an authentic work. I've recently learned a lot about the painting style of the Tang Dynasty in Tongji. This Zhong Kui character has a plump image, with layers of coloring and matching, and it's very textured. At first glance, it looks like

There is a real Zhong Kui in front of me, as if he is about to pounce on me. If it is an ordinary copy, it is impossible to reach this level. If it is a master copy, there should be records. And if you look at the many seals on this painting, it shows that it has at least been

It has changed more than 20 owners." Young Master Tang looked at it carefully, and made some comments based on his own abilities and his own opinions.

"Haha, brother, your comments just now are really like everyone else's. I think you can even be on a treasure appraisal show." Wang Jun said with a smile.

"Brother Wang, please don't bury me. What kind of treasure appraisal show is this at my level?" Young Master Tang shook his head and said with a bitter smile.

"Who says it can't work? I think it can."

"Okay, Brother Wang, let's continue looking. I am looking forward to Uncle Wang's collection more and more. The first painting I just saw is an authentic painting of the Painting Saint. I wonder if there are authentic works of the Grass Saint and the Calligraphy Saint here.

"Young Master Tang looked at the other boxes on the shelf with nonchalant eyes.

"Don't think about this. There is only "Ten Finger Zhongkui Picture" by the painting saint Wu Daozi."

Wang Jun looked at Mr. Tang speechlessly, "Do you think the works of canonized figures are big carrots? You can have them if you want them?"

Throughout the ages, only six people have been canonized in more than 5,000 years of history. Not to mention the historical sage Sima Qian, whose "Historical Records" has been famous for centuries; the medical sage Zhang Zhongjing wrote "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases" for his immeasurable merits and was canonized;

The poet Du Fu has many popular works, such as "Spring View", "Northern Expedition", "Three Officials", "Three Farewells", etc. These three people are civilized in the world because of the content of their works, and the original manuscripts of their works are not very large.

Collection value.

The other three saints are the painting sage Wu Daozi who wrote "Pictures of the King of Heaven Seeing His Son", "The Image of Confucius Teaching", etc., the cursive sage Zhang Xu wrote "Four Posts on Ancient Poems", "Cursive Script Heart Sutra", etc., and the calligraphy sage Wang Xizhi wrote

"Preface to the Lanting Collection", "Huang Ting Jing", etc., their works have benefited society and contributed to the country. Their works themselves have reached the pinnacle of skills and risen to the realm of Tao, so they have been spread throughout the world.

Strictly speaking, the first three saints were pragmatists who reached the pinnacle of their profession, while the last three saints were pragmatic artists. As a collection, it is obvious that only the works of artists will be appreciated by the public.

of eager pursuit.

The three Chinese painting sages Wu Daozi and the grass sage Zhang Xu are from the Tang Dynasty, more than 1,300 years ago, and the calligraphy sage Wang Xizhi is from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, more than 1,600 years ago, and their works have been handed down.

Not many. After more than a thousand years, they were destroyed by wars. More unexpectedly, very few have been handed down. His father also bought this painting by Wu Daozi from someone else at a very high price.

.

Young Master Tang smiled slightly and said, "If you don't have it, you won't have it. It would be nice to have other ones."

As he spoke, Young Master Tang came to the second box. The label read: "One Hundred Beautiful Pictures", written by Tang Yin, one of the four great talents of the Ming Dynasty. The estimated price is 18 million yuan.

Tang Yin? Young Master Tang couldn't help but be shocked again. This person's reputation is not much worse than the previous one. Everyone may not be familiar with Tang Yin, but everyone must have heard of his other name Tang Bohu. Together with Zhu Zhishan, Wen Zhengming,

Xu Zhenqing became one of the four great talents in the south of the Yangtze River. Especially in the Xiangjiang movie "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance", which became popular all over the country, Tang Bohu's reputation became even greater.

What Young Master Tang liked more was Tang Bohu's nickname - the Master of Peach Blossom Temple, and he also wrote the Song of Peach Blossom Temple.

There is a Peach Blossom Temple in Taohuawu, and a Peach Blossom Fairy under the Peach Blossom Temple. The Peach Blossom Fairy grows peach trees and picks peach flowers in exchange for wine money.

When you are sober, you just sit in front of flowers; when you are drunk, you come and sleep under flowers; when you are half awake and half drunk, day after day, the flowers fall and bloom year after year.

I hope that I will die in old age among flowers and wine, and do not want to bow in front of carriages and horses; the dust of carriages and horses are enough for the rich, and the wine-cup branches are for the poor.

If you compare the rich and the poor, one will be on the ground and the other will be in the sky; if you compare the poor to the chariots and horses, he will have to drive and I will have nothing to do.

Others laugh at me for being crazy, but I laugh at others because they can't see through it. There are no tombs of heroes in Wuling, and there are no flowers or wine to cultivate the fields.

However, is this really Tang Bohu's authentic work? Young Master Tang couldn't help but use his detection skills.

""Hundred Beautiful Pictures" is a work by Tang Yin, one of the four great talents in the south of the Yangtze River in the Ming Dynasty. It is a treasure and has great collection value."

Authentic work, see the real work again!

Tang Bohu's original work, my God, this place is truly a 'treasure'. If the teacher came here and saw these things, he would probably go crazy...

Wang Jun stepped forward and opened the box. Inside was also a yellowed scroll, but it looked much better than the previous "Ten Finger Zhongkui Picture". After all, Tang Bohu lived only four to five hundred years ago.

Year.

The two slowly opened "Pictures of Hundreds of Beauties". The name of this painting is "Pictures of Hundreds of Beauties" because it contains scenes of hundreds of beauties living leisurely lives, all of them graceful, charming, and stunningly beautiful. This painting

It is larger than the "Ten Finger Zhong Kui Picture", about one and a half meters long and sixty centimeters wide.

"What a good thing." Young Master Tang couldn't help but admired as he watched the beauties in the painting come to life one by one and jump on the paper.

"Haha, of course it's a good thing. This painting is passed down in our family. According to my father, my grandfather was once a school officer under Sun Dianying, the thief of Dongling. It is said that this painting exploded under Sun Dianying.

I got it after Cixi's tomb." Wang Jun laughed.

Young Master Tang was a little speechless. Digging someone's grave was a bad thing. Why did Wang Jun seem so proud? But if Wang Jun's grandfather was really a school officer under Sun Dianying, he might have left more than this collection.

Here's the picture.

Sun Dianying, nicknamed Sun Dazi, was a great warlord during the Republic of China. His most famous deed was that he blew up the tombs of Empress Dowager Cixi and Qianlong, and obtained countless jade, pearls, ivory, jade, calligraphy, painting, carvings, swords, etc.

He collected forty or fifty boxes and recruited more than thirty large carts to carry the treasures, so he was called the Dongling Bandit.

There are countless treasures in Dongling. It is said that after a deserter under Sun Dianying was caught, he actually carried thirty-six orbs. A deserter had so many treasures on his body. Wang Jun's grandfather was Sun Dianying's school officer.

The treasures obtained are probably even more exaggerated.

Young Master Tang admired "Hundred Beautiful Pictures" for a while, then reluctantly rolled it up again and put it back in the box.

Seeing Young Master Tang's reluctant expression, Wang Jun couldn't help but smile and said: "Brother, didn't my father let you choose anything here? If you really like this "Hundred Beautiful Pictures", wait until you finish reading the collection and take it away.

That’s it.”

"Haha, Brother Wang, let's take a look at the other ones first." Young Master Tang said with a smile. Although he really liked "Hundred Beautiful Pictures", how could he choose it casually without looking at other collections?

When he came to the third box, Young Master Tang couldn't help but smile. He saw on the note: "Nine Peaks of Snow", written by the great idiot Taoist Huang Gongwang of the Yuan Dynasty, estimated at 15 million yuan.

"Inside this is the "Nine Peaks of Snow" that you picked up by mistake. It was supposed to be in my collection, but my dad snatched it away..." Wang Jun felt as if he saw the "Nine Peaks of Snow"

There will be endless resentment.

"Haha, Brother Wang, didn't Uncle Wang give you money?" Young Master Tang said with a smile.

"Money? Who cares about this thing? "Nine Peaks of Snow" is Huang Gongwang's masterpiece. If you have money, there is no place to buy it. Some time ago, news came from the Forbidden City in the capital. After their appraisal, it is true that one of the Forbidden City's works is indeed

It is a high imitation, but the imitator himself is very skilled in painting, so researchers from the Forbidden City took a look at it. People there have always wanted to take this "Nine Peaks with Snow" back to study it."

Wang Jun said disdainfully.

Money? What is money? Money is like a bastard. He will make money after spending it. Besides, when has Mr. Wang ever been short of money? How long will it take for him to spend all his money?

"Haha, stop complaining. Who made Uncle Wang your father? Just based on this, he will defeat you." Young Master Tang couldn't help but let out a teasing laugh.

Wang Jun couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, what can you do with such an old man...

If Tang Xiaoxiao were here, she would definitely feel that she and Wang Jun were in the same boat. With such a 'shameless' brother, what could she do...

Young Master Tang came to the fourth box and took a look at it and asked curiously: "Brother Wang, why doesn't this have a label?"

Wang Jun took a look and said: "This box contains an ancient book. This book, like "Hundred Beautiful Pictures", is a family heirloom. My grandfather also got it back from Dongling. According to my father,

, this book was buried with Qianlong, and a shrine was enshrined in the main tomb, and this book was placed in that shrine.

My grandfather was the first person to open the tomb of Qianlong, and he secretly hid this book. But there is something strange about this book. There are no words except some pictures of characters, and the material of the book is not paper.

, I still haven’t figured out what material it is made of, so there is no label.”

[Author's digression]: Brothers, here comes the third update...

After finishing the first two pages of Daomen, I was ready to go to bed...but I couldn't sleep anyway...so I got up and finished coding the third chapter...

Something very important is about to appear next. Smart children must know what it is.
