    Moreover, Chu Chen also discovered that part of the nib of this writing brush was actually detachable. That is to say, the removed part can be easily installed with a new nib. In this way, this writing brush also has practical functions.  value.  Although this head needs to be customized, something like this that can be solved with a little money is not a trouble at all for Chu Chen.  Next, Chu Chen took another brief look around. During this period, he took a fancy to a pen holder and a pen holder. Unfortunately, both of these items were somewhat damaged and were not suitable as gifts.  Seeing that there was nothing he liked, Chu Chen said: "Shopkeeper Xu, please help me choose a good piece of ink and a brush, and also help me choose a few pieces of better rice paper." "What kind of ink do you want?"  I also have a set of Chinese pine smoke and Hui ink from the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty. Do you want it?" Xu Shengyan asked.  Hui ink is a treasure of the ink-making skills of the Han people in my country, and is also one of the "Four Treasures of the Study" known at home and abroad. The other three treasures generally refer to Xuancheng Zhuge pens, Chengxintang paper, and Wuyuan Longwei inkstones.  Hui ink is named after it was produced in ancient Huizhou Prefecture. Its production should have started no later than the Tang Dynasty. It is the most beloved token of calligraphers and painters.  The ancients once said: "Having good ink is like having a good horse for a famous general." Hui ink is known to be light when picked up, clear when polished, fragrant when smelled, hard as jade, silent when ground, a bit like lacquer, and true for thousands of years.  reputation.  Dong Qichang, the great calligrapher of the Ming Dynasty, once praised the "Xuanyuan Lingqi" and "Liao Tianyi" inks made by the Huizhou ink master Cheng Junfang at that time: "A hundred years later, there will be no Junfang but Junfang's ink; a thousand years later,  There is no ink of Junfang but it has the name of Junfang. This shows how much celebrities and scholars at that time loved Hui ink.  The longer the ink stick is, the better, and the oily pine smoke ink is an ink made from a mixture of oil smoke and pine smoke.  Suitable for writing.  Therefore, when Chu Chen heard that there was such a set of ink, he quickly agreed happily.  When Xu Shengyan brought the set of ink over, Chu Chen couldn't help but praise it after inspecting it.  There are six pieces of ink in this set.  After weighing it, it is very light. It looks smooth and delicate, with a purple light. And after so many years, it still smells like a pure fragrance. It can be said to be a very rare set of old Hui ink.  After checking this set of ink.  Chu Chen said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Xu, you have a lot of good things, don't you even have Chengxintang paper?" Xu Shengyan shook his head and laughed: "I want all Chengxintang paper, but I can't find it.  After more than ten years, I could only find three imitations made during the Qianlong period. "Chu Chen really didn't expect that Xu Shengyan actually had Chengxintang paper.  Chengxintang paper was made by Li Yu, the later master of the Southern Tang Dynasty.  Li Yu regarded this kind of paper as a treasure and praised it as the "King of Paper". He specially set up the "Chengxin Hall" where Li Jie, the martyr of the Southern Tang Dynasty, lived, read and read memorials in Jinling to store it.  The imperial eunuch made this kind of fine paper and named it "Chengxintang" paper for long-term use in the palace.  Chengxintang paper is of extremely high quality, but very few of it have been handed down from generation to generation.  Song Dynasty.  Liu Chang gave ten pieces of Chengxintang paper to Ouyang Xiu. Ouyang Xiu, a literary giant of his generation, wrote a poem saying, "Although the Jun family has Chengxintang paper, who dares to write it knows who!" This means that although there is Chengxintang paper, who knows?  It¡¯s a piece of paper, but who would be willing to write on it?  This shows how precious Chengxintang paper is.  With such precious paper, it is a pity that the craftsmanship has been lost. Later generations have repeatedly imitated Chengxintang paper.  Pan Gu, a calligrapher in the Song Dynasty, was also a famous papermaker.  He used to imitate the Chengxin paper of the Five Dynasties to make paper products, which is known as the Chengxintang paper of the Song Dynasty.  Although this kind of paper is not as good as original paper, it is still cherished by literati.  After that, Emperor Qianlong was very fond of calligraphy and painting.  They also began to copy this kind of paper, and some copies were made, but not many of them have been passed down.  Therefore, even if it is imitated during the Qianlong period, it is very rare and valuable. How can you miss this kind of good paper?  But before Chu Chen could speak, Xu Shengyan said first: "Mr. Chu, this paper is not for sale. I will never change hands in my lifetime. However, I still have some custom-made clean cotton six-foot rice paper made by Wang Liuji from the Republic of China. I can give it to you."  How about two knives? " Wang Liuji rice paper is an outstanding variety of rice paper. The origin of Wang Liuji paper has been passed down by word of mouth from generation to generation among rice paper workers.  It is said that a man named Wang and Liuji, in order to make better quality rice paper, searched for a more ideal paper-making place in the Jingchuan land of 300 miles, and finally found a flying whirlpool on the cliff of a deep mountain.  The jade-like mountain spring with snow splashing on it, soaked in it for twenty years, found the ideal washing water for papermaking.  The rice paper produced later was indeed extraordinary, surpassing ordinary rice paper and comparable to the best rice paper at that time.  Wang Liuji's rice paper became famous from then on, and Wang Liuji, the man with the same name as the paper, became famous throughout the ages.  Although not?You can get Chengxintang paper, but it is also very good to have rice paper from Wang Liuji Paper Factory in the Republic of China.  Wang Liuji's custom-made rice paper is packed in ten sheets. Two knives are two hundred sheets, and there are twenty rolls in total. These rice papers are of excellent workmanship and materials. The paper is pure, soft and delicate. It has become slightly yellowed due to age, but what is commendable is that,  These papers were produced under the supervision of Jiuhuatang, a famous literary and art shop at that time. They are original and intact, which is very rare.  And these rice papers are all pure cotton rice paper, which is just right for writing calligraphy.  Rice paper is generally divided into three types: pure paper, cotton material, and special paper. Pure paper is used for small freehand paintings such as flowers and birds, cotton paper is generally used for calligraphy, and special paper is mainly used for large freehand paintings.  Generally speaking, cotton material refers to paper whose raw material sandalwood content is about 40%, which is thinner and lighter.  This is because paper with a higher proportion of sandalwood can better reflect rich ink levels and better moistening effect. Therefore, 40% sandalwood content is enough for calligraphy writing.  Chu Chen was very satisfied with these Wang Liuji rice papers, but this kind of rice paper could only be used at critical times, and he would definitely be reluctant to use it when practicing calligraphy. So Chu Chen asked Xu Shengyan to get two more Red Star rice papers. This brand of rice paper is also good rice paper.  , of course, the price won¡¯t be that cheap.  In the end, the pen, ink, paper and the pen washer came to a total of 730,000 yuan. Chu Chen was very satisfied with the price. After calculating, Xu Shengyan got a discount of 40,000 yuan, which was already very good.  After the transaction was completed, Chu Chen immediately called Liu Sizhe and asked him if he had sent the "Chushan Autumn Evening Picture" to the capital. If not, it would be a good time to bring these with him.  If the items were not expensive, it would be no problem to check them in, but he was still a little worried about items worth more than 700,000 yuan.  The timing of Chu Chen¡¯s call was also coincidental. When he called, the person delivering the painting had just left, so Liu Sizhe quickly called and stopped the person.  When Chu Chen returned to the reception room, everyone enthusiastically admired the things Chu Chen had just bought.  Guan Guokang said with a smile: "Xiao Chu, you are quite good at picking things, but how are you going to get so many things? You seem to be going to Pingzhou. Are you going to check these things back?" Chu Chen shook his head.  Shaking his head: "I have asked someone to help me bring these things to the capital. They will be here soon." Guan Guokang nodded, but he immediately reacted and asked: "Xiao Chu, was that painting also brought with him?  "Go back?" "Yes." Chu Chen replied.  "Hey, what a pity! I still wanted to appreciate it, but I have no chance now." Guan Guokang sighed with regret on his face.  "What painting are you talking about?" Mr. Yue came up and asked.  Guan Guokang did not answer, but first gave Chu Chen a questioning look. He did this because the painting was too precious, and he was afraid that if he said it rashly, it would arouse other people's prying eyes, so he did not say it directly.  Instead, he asked Chu Chen for his opinion first.  "It's Jing Hao's "Chu Mountain Autumn Evening Picture"." Chu Chen replied. He was not afraid of other people's prying eyes, and he had already thought about setting up a personal museum in the future. Sooner or later, this Jing Hao's work would be made public to the world.  , there is nothing wrong with him saying it now.  "However, Chu Chen still thinks of human nature too simply when he thinks this way. You must know that human greed is endless, and not everyone will give up when faced with difficulties.  "What? Jing Hao's "Autumn Evening in the Chushan Mountains"?" "Real or fake?" "Didn't it say that this painting has been lost?" When they heard that it was actually this famous painting, everyone present was in an uproar, and everyone was exposed.  He looked in disbelief.  "It's true!" Guan Guokang said with certainty: "I saw it and found that the painting is indeed Jing Hao's style, and it also has inscriptions and seals from many famous artists, including Huang Gongwang." "No!"  Old Yue's face was full of shock. After a while, he angrily yelled at Guan Guokang: "Okay, you old guy, why did you drag me out of Xiao Chu's room this morning? So that's what happened?  "Guan Guokang said righteously: "That's because business is important. If I see that painting, I won't be able to finish today's business." "What, will it delay the business for a few minutes?"  "Hey! Can you promise to just watch for a few minutes?" "How can I" Seeing the two of them bickering again, everyone else shook their heads and laughed.  Xu Shengyan asked curiously: "Mr. Chu, could it be that Jing Hao's "Chu Mountain Autumn Evening Picture" was also picked up by you in the ghost market this morning?" Chu Chen touched his nose and said with a smile: "It's really true.  I picked up something this morning??Come.  " "Isn't it?  "Expert Zhang said in surprise: "What kind of talent does the boss have to be? He can even miss Jing Hao's works. I think he is not in the antique business, but specializes in giving gifts to others!  " "This" Chu Chen prodded them again: "I think the boss may not have seen that painting, because I brought it back as a partner.  " "Poof!  " After hearing Chu Chen's words, the person in charge of the treasure house spit out the sip of tea he just drank in his mouth, and then coughed violently. Expert Zhang was even more stunned and asked: "How about that?  to talk to you?  " "It's true that we met" At this point, Chu Chen simply told everyone the reason before. "This" Everyone present was speechless for a while. How good Chu Chen's luck was.  How unlucky must the Lord be to have such a thing happen to him!
