After hearing Qi Gong's words, Qin Feng scratched his head. The man in front of him was over eighty years old. If he called him "old man", Qin Feng would be afraid of losing his life.
Qi Gong nodded and said: "Okay, then you can call me by my name, and I will call you by your name."
Qi Gong is getting simpler as he gets older, but he doesn't want to think about it. If Qin Feng dares to call him by his first name outside, I'm afraid Li Ran will be the first to fall out with him.
"I'm afraid that won't work either."
Qin Feng knew that this was definitely inappropriate. He laughed bitterly after hearing this. After thinking for a while, he said: "How about this? Let's talk about age. You are older than me, so I'd better call you old man..."
"Oh well."
Qi Gong was not limited to these details, and immediately agreed, saying: "Actually, if you follow him, you don't need my teachings. What I have learned now is all thanks to him."
Qi Gong is also an old man in his eighties. Thinking about the past sixty or seventy years ago, he can't help but sigh.
Qi Gong also experienced many major changes in his life. Zai Shi's name was originally buried deep in his memory. Once it was brought out, the past flashed through his mind like a picture.
Seeing that the old man was deep in thought, Qin Feng was curious, but he did not disturb him. After about ten minutes, when the old man opened his eyes, he asked: "Old man, after Zhang Xun's restoration, my master So he went to Jintian. Logically speaking, he shouldn’t have much contact with you?”
Zhang Xun's restoration happened in 1917. Zai was already fifteen years old at that time, and Qi Gong was just a five-year-old kid still wearing crotchless pants. The possibility of the two of them intersecting was not very high. .
You must know that after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, there were more than tens of thousands of people left behind, including the old and the young. There were even countless Wangsunbeile. They were all looking after their own affairs, and no one had the time to worry about other people's affairs.
"It's really a coincidence that I know your master..."
Qi Gong recalled: "That must have happened in 1927. I was fifteen years old at that time. When I met him, I didn't know that he and I were both from the same clan..."
As Qi Gong told his story, what happened sixty years ago was revealed in front of Qin Feng.
It turns out that there was an elder in Qi Gong who ran a coffin shop. Of course, that elder was also a yellow belt from the former Qing Dynasty, which shows what kind of mess the old and young people were at that time.
Qi Gong's family background was very poor when he was young, but he was very diligent and discerning. He often helped in the coffin shop. One day in the summer of 27, he met Zai Shi.
Zai was acquainted with Qi Gong's elders, but this time he wanted to order a good coffin. He saw that Qi Gong was a very smart man, and at that time he had the intention of accepting a disciple.
However, Zai Shi seemed to have some things to deal with. After hearing that Qi Gong's elder knew Qi Baishi, he wrote a letter of recommendation and asked Zai Shi to take it to Qi Baishi to become his disciple.
In the 1920s and 1930s, Mr. Baishi was famous in the capital. Especially after he became seriously ill at the age of 63 and his father died at the age of 64, his calligraphy and painting creations became very rare. Many famous people are hard to find. .
Qi Gong, the elder who opened the coffin shop, only helped Qi Baishi build a coffin for his family, and did not have much friendship with Qi Baishi. Therefore, Qi Gonggong studied painting under the old man Baishi, all because of Zai Shi's letter of recommendation.
From that year onwards, things turned around for Qi Gong. Through Mr. Baishi, he got to know many famous calligraphers and painters in the capital. It can be said that from then on, he officially entered the palace of art.
Later, after the Japanese invaded China, Zai Shi once made a trip to the capital, but he came and went in a hurry. At that time, he left Qi Gong a large sum of money and taught Zai Shi some knowledge about the identification and appraisal of cultural relics, and then left again. .
Zai may have been an unintentional move, but Qi Gong, who had always lived a very poor life, used the money to overcome the difficulties at that time, and with the kindness of recommending his teacher, Qi Gong always kept Zai in his heart.
But after that meeting, Qi Gong never heard of Guozhao's name again. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, he also made many inquiries about Guozhao, but it was like he had disappeared from the world without any news.
After telling Qin Feng the past that had been pressing in his heart for fifty or sixty years, Qi Gong smiled and said: "Qin Feng, actually, you and I can be called brothers, but he and I are just brothers. After studying for a month, the time is really too short.
By the way, tell me the ins and outs of getting to know him. For so many years, I have always thought that he had passed away long ago..."
Although he is only ten years younger than Zaishi, Qi Gong always calls him an old man when he mentions him, which shows that his respect for him is definitely from the bottom of his heart.
"What Master has learned is indeed profound and profound..."
Qin Feng nodded, and immediately told the old man in front of him some of his own experiences and how he met Zaishi. Qin Feng believed that Qi Gong would not spread his past stories everywhere.
"Qin Feng, you...your fate turns out to be so bumpy?"
After listening to Qin Feng's story, Qi Gong looked at him in surprise. Qin Feng's fate was even more bumpy than his. Qi Gong could not imagine that Qin Feng, who was eight years old back then, was How do you survive with your sister?
"It'll be fine if you get used to it. Master's previous experiences were probably even more thrilling, but he just didn't talk about them."
When Qin Feng talked about his own sufferings, there was no special expression on his face, as if he was talking about other people's affairs, which made Qi Gong feel a little awe-inspiring.
After thinking for a while, Qi Gong hesitated and said: "Qin Feng, I...I know that he still has some skills, wouldn't he pass them all to you?"
"Oh? Old man, I only learned cultural relic appreciation and piano playing from my master. He didn't teach me anything else." Qin Feng looked at Qi Gong with a half-smile. There were some things that he knew in his mind, but he didn't say anything. from.
"It's best not to teach..." Qi Gong obviously didn't believe Qin Feng's words, and sighed and said: "Qin Feng, now is a legal society, you have to think twice before doing anything."
When Qi Gong first met Zai Shi, the fifty-year-old man he took to the elder's coffin shop died from stab wounds all over his body. His death was very miserable.
When Qi Gong saw Zai Shi for the second time, Zai Shi himself was covered in scars, and there was even a bullet hole in his arm. Even if Zai Shi was proficient in pharmacology, he spent more than a month at Qi Gong's home to treat his injuries. Just left.
In addition, the words uploaded were usually revealed, and Qi Gong understood in his heart that this clan elder should be a strange man in the world, and the gold and silverware that was later handed to him probably did not come from a serious origin.
Looking at Qin Feng at this moment, Qi Gong seemed to be facing Zai Shi when he was in his prime.
In the temperament shown by Qin Feng and Zai Shi, there seems to be a rough atmosphere that is incompatible with this society, but it is well hidden and cannot be seen by ordinary people.
Qin Feng knew what the old man was worried about, so he smiled and said: "Old man, I know, aren't you going to college safely now?"
Qi Gong thought for a moment and said, "By the way, are you short of money? I still have one hundred thousand left, I'll give it to you later!"
The old man had never had any idea about money, and he never charged any writing fees for writing. Some time ago, when he was sorting out his books, he found a bankbook worth 100,000 yuan, so he thought of giving it to Qin Feng.
"Hey, old man, keep this money for yourself, I'm not short of money to spend."
Qin Feng shook his head repeatedly. He didn't tell Qi Gong what happened after he was released from prison, just because he was afraid that the old man would be angry. You know, in the past few years, he had faked jade in the stone market, and this year he made some fake jade. These things are terrible in the antique industry. They are all taboos.
"Yes, how could you be short of money?"
Qi Gong's eyes narrowed, and he smiled intentionally or unintentionally and said: "That piece of ancient jade should be your handiwork, right? I remember that his old man's Northern School carving skills are unparalleled in the world. To the right!"
"Which piece of ancient jade? I don't know what you are always talking about?" Qin Feng also had a smile on his face, but he refused to admit it.
"It's incredible. I'm afraid he didn't have the accomplishments you have now." Seeing Qin Feng's appearance, how could Qi Gong not guess it?
But thinking about Qin Feng's miserable life experience, the old man couldn't bear to accuse him. Moreover, counterfeiting of antiques has been around for thousands of years. If it is poorly made, it is called a fake. If the fake is fake, it can also be called a work of art. of.
"The old man has given me a reward..."
Qin Feng chuckled and said: "I still lack some physical training in the restoration of ancient cultural relics. Can we go through the back door and let me participate in the restoration of cultural relics in the Forbidden City?"
Qin Feng's head is full of various theories, but in practice he is far behind.
His purpose for going to college was, firstly, to classify and sort out the knowledge in his mind, and secondly, to get in touch with more antiques and cultural relics, so as to enrich his hands-on skills.
"Even if you don't tell me, I won't let you go."
Qi Gong also laughed when he heard this, pointed at Qin Feng, and said: "Your master laid the foundation for my study of cultural relic restoration. With you here, more objects in the Forbidden City can be salvaged."
"Okay, old man, let's make an agreement then." Qin Feng looked at his watch and said, "We have been chatting for an hour, so it's time to say hello to them."
Qin Feng could imagine that the guys who were locked out would have been overflowing with curiosity, but these things related to a lot of his privacy, so he still couldn't let them know.
"Hey, Qin Feng, what are you talking to the teacher about? It's been taking so long?"
Sure enough, as soon as the door opened, Li Ran, who was guarding outside, started yelling because he couldn't figure out how Qin Feng, a freshman, could have any connection with Qi Gong?
"Why are you asking so many questions? It would be great if your academic attainments are half as good as Qin Feng's..."
Qi Gong glared at Li Ran and came to Qin Feng's rescue: "Xiao Qin has some connections with one of my elders. He will come to work in my project team in a few days. Li Ran, please make arrangements for him!"
"is teacher."
Hearing the old man talking about work, Li Ran suddenly became serious, while Feng Yongkang and Zhu Kai looked at Qin Feng with envy. What a rare opportunity it was to be able to study with the master?
Seeing Qi Gong's face looking a little tired, Wei Hua came over and said, "Mr. Qi, you've been wasted for too long today. I think it's better to send you back to rest, and help me look at those objects when you're free..."
"Well, with Qin Feng here, it doesn't matter whether I look or not."
Qi Gong nodded, pointed at Qin Feng and said: "Xiao Wei, let Qin Feng show you those things of yours. If he says it is true, then it is true!"
"What?"
As soon as Qi Gong said these words, everyone in the venue was immediately petrified. Even if Mr. Qi wanted to praise Qin Feng, what he said was a bit too shocking, right? (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature for better and more updated novels. quick!)
