After picking up the pen holder, what everyone saw was a folded piece of thick rice paper, which was wrapped in a plastic bag. Chu Chen probably did this to prevent moisture. Such a thick stack of rice paper fills the bottom of the entire pen holder, so the movable bottom of the pen holder is less likely to loosen. Based on Chu Chen¡¯s previous experience, he knew that the things inside should be extraordinary, and since it was rice paper, it was probably calligraphy and painting by famous artists. I carefully took the rice paper out of the plastic bag and as soon as I put it on the table, an accident happened. The rice paper bounced away with a pop, which shocked everyone. ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? did out did the previous owner carefully cover the folded area with something like sponge to avoid breaking the rice paper when he put it in, so the accident just happened. Fortunately, the table has been cleaned just now, and there are no teacups or other things on it. Otherwise, if you accidentally get water on it just now, you will be in trouble. Chu Chen carefully laid out the cleaned rice paper on the table and took a closer look. It turned out that it was a calligraphy work, and the inscription on it was "Walking among Flowers" by Zhang Jiuling, a poet from the Tang Dynasty. The orchid leaves are lush in spring, and the osmanthus flowers are bright and clear in autumn. Enjoy this business, it will be a festive season for you. Who knows that those who live in the forest will feel happy when they hear the wind and sit there. Plants and trees have their own hearts, so why ask for beauty? Xiangyang Mi Fu. The seal is the seal of Mi Fu. There are also several bell seals and collection seals, each of which represents a famous figure in history. "This this is actually a work by Mi Fu!" Based on those bell seals and Mr. Liu's professional level of immersed in calligraphy and painting for many years, he immediately concluded that this was an authentic calligraphy work by Mi Fu, and he couldn't help but be shocked. Startled. Mi Fu, character seal, was named Fu in his early years. After the age of forty-one, his writings were signed "Fu" and his names were Lumen Jushi, Xiangyang Manshi, and Haiyue Waishi. It is known as "Minangong" and "Mixiangyang" in the world. During the Xuanhe reign of Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, he was awarded a doctorate in calligraphy and painting. He successively served in Yongqiu County, Zhi Lianshui Army, Wuwei Army, Huaiyang Army, and later became a member of the Ministry of Rites, Wai Lang. Mi Fu is a calligrapher, painter, connoisseur and collector, with a wide range of interests. He has studied calligraphy the most throughout his life, and his greatest achievement is running script. Although the paintings have not been handed down to the world, many calligraphy works have survived. Most of the famous calligraphy since the Southern Song Dynasty are engraved with his calligraphy. Its spread is widespread and its influence is far-reaching. It can be said to be the leader among calligraphers in the Song Dynasty. . His calligraphy style is free and unrestrained, but also strict with the law. Su Dongpo praised his calligraphy as "true, cursive, official, and seal script, like the wind and the horses in the formation. He is calm and cheerful, and he should be on par with King Zhong. It is more than worthy of it." The so-called composure means being meticulous in writing, precise in stippling, and having deep thoughts; the so-called "happy" means using the pen quickly, dripping freely, vigorously, and majestic. Mi Fu¡¯s calligraphy ranks among the four calligraphers of the Song Dynasty, after Su Dongpo and Huang Tingjian, and before Cai Xiang. But as far as the art of calligraphy is concerned, Mi Fu has the most profound traditional skills, especially running script, which is actually the best of the two. Seeing that it was Mi Fu's work, Mr. Liu immediately took out his magnifying glass and almost pressed his face against it. After looking at the work carefully, he put down the magnifying glass and breathed a sigh of relief. He praised: "It is indeed a work of Mi Fu, full of charm, calm and joyful. No wonder Dong Qichang of the Ming Dynasty wrote in his "Essays on Painting a Zen Room", "I have tried to comment on the word Mi, and I think the Song Dynasty is the best. After all, it is because of On the east slope. That is to say, Mi Dian's book was self-satisfied, and it changed in his later years, with the strange feeling of being as cold as water. "It is indeed worthy of the name!" After Chu Chen read it carefully, he couldn't help but sigh: "No wonder when the emperor asked about his calligraphy, Mi Fu would claim to be a "brush calligrapher". The two words "brush calligraphy" reflect It reflects the characteristics of his writing that is fast and vigorous, full of joy, full of movement, vigorous and fresh. " "As for the words in front of me, I wrote it with all my heart and soul to the end. It is indeed worthy of being called "brush calligraphy". These two words completely point to the essence of Mi Fu's own calligraphy." Mr. Liu nodded and said, "You are right, Xiao Chu. Although there are few words in this work, the brushwork and skill in it are unparalleled. It's worse than the hand scroll he wrote. It can be regarded as a masterpiece by Mi Fu. Xiao Chu, you are very lucky!" Chu Chen scratched his head and said with a naive smile: "Luck, everything. It's just luck." Liu Qinshu said enviously: "Xiao Chu, you are so lucky. I think I should try it when I encounter a pen holder in the future. Maybe I can be like you, Xiao Chu. There is something inside." Mr. Liu shook his head and said with a smile: "Xiao Shu, if you want to find out, luck is the key. If you are not lucky, you can't catch a rabbit even if you stick to it all your life. Come on, you have been studying antiques with me for many years. Not to mention the big ones, I haven't met many small ones. I think you?Don't worry about picking up leaks all the time. " "snort! I don¡¯t, I don¡¯t believe it, I will never pick up a big leak in my life! " Mr. Liu laughed and said: "Look, you are acting like a child again. It's up to you. You have a lot of money anyway, so you don't feel bad about wasting a few. Xiao Chu, what are you going to do with this calligraphy work by Mi Fu? Don't worry, I won't ask you for it? " Chu Chen thought for a while and replied: "Mr. Liu, I will definitely not sell this piece of calligraphy. After all, fine calligraphy like Mi Fu's is rare. However, although this pen holder was given to me by the original owner, he did not know that there was a work hidden in it, so I always felt that getting it was a bit unfair, awkward and awkward. " Mr. Liu nodded and said with a smile: "Xiao Chu, if you think so, it shows that you have a kind heart, but you can rest assured that this thing is actually like us picking up antiques. Can you buy it with your eyesight? Pay it back, or make some extra money? Let me tell you, the treasure is for a virtuous person to live in. Since he has not discovered it, he will not be blessed to enjoy it. Liu Qinshu said: "That's right, my dad is right, Xiao Chu, you deserve this." My dad finally spoke up, but he actually asked for 30 million. He was really heartless. Xiao Chu, you don¡¯t know that their family only spent 300,000 yuan to buy that villa. Do you think he has a bad heart or not? " Mr. Liu waved his hand and said: "Okay, Xiao Shu, don't say anything. Xiao Zhang also has difficulties. It's not that you don't know. He wants to buy property in Jin Province. He is the only one of his brothers now. Yes, it's hard enough for him. Besides, isn¡¯t the price he offered also the market price? Liu Qinshu still said with some annoyance: "Dad, you know how to protect him. How much does it cost for a mayor to buy a house? He is not an upright official. You don't know how famous he was in the Ministry of Transportation before. How much money does it cost to buy a house for him as a mayor?" If it hadn't been for a different minister, how could he have gone down there? Besides, if you defend him like this, he still gives you a market price. " Mr. Liu smiled bitterly and shook his head. How could he not know what Liu Qinshu said, but after all, he is the only son of his old friend. He has to take care of him to some extent. As for Chu Chen, he can only temporarily wrong him. Fortunately Now, the unexpected work of Mi Fu has made up for some of the losses, making Mr. Liu feel a little better. However, if Chu Chen knew what Mr. Liu was thinking, he would definitely treat Mr. Liu even more. Grateful, in fact, he only bought this villa of nearly 1,500 square meters for 30 million. Chu Chen already felt that he got a bargain. After all, he was just an ordinary person. Without Mr. Liu's help, he could only think about it in his mind. , Now he is very contented. As the old saying goes, those who are content are always happy! So Chu Chen quickly smoothed things over and said, "Mr. Liu, Aunt Liu, I feel very good if I can buy it for 30 million." , and now I have this work by Mi Fu, isn¡¯t it equivalent to a 50% discount? If it had been anyone else, how could such a good thing have happened? "Liu Qinshu said: "If it were someone else, the pen holder would also be given as a gift. Chu Chen chuckled and said, "But others won't think of checking the pen holder like me. Unless I accidentally drop the pen holder, I don't know that this work will be born in the Year of the Monkey and the Moon of the Horse!" Liu Qinshu shook his head and said, "You, you obviously suffered a loss, but you seem to have taken advantage of it." " Chu Chen said with a smile: "I am contented. " Mr. Liu clapped his hands and said with a smile: "You are such a contented person, Xiao Shu, you should learn from Xiao Chu. Don't worry about everything. When the moon is full, it will lose money, when the water is full, it will overflow. When it is time to be confused, You should be confused, otherwise your life will be very tiring! Okay, let¡¯s not talk about this topic. Xiao Chu, just keep this work and I¡¯ll help you frame it. How about it? " Chu Chen nodded quickly and said: "Mr. Liu, of course I am willing, but it is too troublesome for you. " Mr. Liu waved his hand and said: "What's the trouble? I wish you would often frame works like this for me. By the way, you happened to be here today. You can take back the two previous works. . "Mr. Liu, didn't we agree to keep that bamboo and stone picture for you for a month?" Mr. Liu shook his head and said, "It's enough for you to have this intention. Besides, if you move here in the future, I won't be able to see it unless you don't want to show it to me." Chu Chen quickly said: "How is this possible? If you want to see it then, just say hello to me." " Next, after Mr. Liu gave him some antique information, he went to take a nap. Chu Chen was already ready to go home, but he didn't expect that the designer Liu Qinshu mentioned had already arrived. The designer's surname is Shi , looks about sixtyAfter talking with him, we found out that he was actually a professor of architecture at Beijing University, and he was accompanied by two of his students.
