    Chu Chen chuckled and said: "It's not bad for you to do this. Maybe if your talent is good, you can achieve something in a few months!" "Am I still talented? If you are really talented, you won't be like this.  I'm sick." Zhenzhen said with a bitter smile.  "The bones have nothing to do with illness. Maybe you are really a genius in martial arts!" Duan Kun comforted him quickly. ??????????????? I really listened to what he said, and I felt somewhat hopeful in my heart. Moreover, even if you are not talented, exercising every day should be regarded as strengthening your body. In the end, there are only advantages and not many disadvantages.  Next, Chu Chen wrote a prescription for Zhenzhen, and then told her what she usually pays attention to.  After Chu Chen explained everything clearly, Zhenzhen said with a smile: "Brother Chu, because of me, you didn't have a good meal just now. We will come to my shop later and I will help you burn a few things from my private room."  Food?" Chu Chen waved his hand with a smile: "No, although we ate quickly just now, we were full, and we can't eat it now even if we want to!" Duan Kun quickly suggested: "Anyway, now we are full!  It's early, why don't we go to the nearby attractions and have a late-night snack, what do you think?" Chu Chen and Liu Sizhe certainly had no objections to this, and they also knew what Duan Kun was planning.  Fortunately, Zhenzhen was in a good mood today, and because his chronic illness was expected to be cured, and he had no objection to Duan Kun, Duan Kun was so happy that he hurriedly took everyone out the door.  Next, the group happily visited several attractions, and then went to Zhenzhen¡¯s store.  During this period, I had a late-night snack cooked by Zhenzhen himself.  Everyone drank together, and in the end, except for Chu Chen and Hu Yong, everyone else was drunk The next day, at around nine o'clock in the morning, Duan Kun got up, washed up, and then knocked on Chu Chen's room.  Door.  As soon as Chu Chen opened the door, Duan Kun said anxiously: "Brother Chen, did I lose my composure in front of Zhenzhen yesterday?" Seeing his appearance.  Chu Chen wanted to tease him, so he deliberately raised his voice and said, "Yesterday" "Brother Chen, you really have to say it!" At this time, Shi Kun's heart was so nervous that it almost jumped into his throat.  "No!" Chu Chen said with a smile.  Duan Kun breathed a sigh of relief and wiped away his sweat: "Brother Chen, please don't be so ups and downs next time. If I have a heart disease, I'm sure it will break out." "What happened?" Duan Kun  The words just fell.  The two of them saw Zhenzhen walking in from the door with something in hand.  "Nothing!" Duan Kun quickly laughed and asked, "Zhenzhen, why did you come here so early today?" "What, you're not welcome?" Zhenzhen said.  "Welcome, how can you not welcome? I welcome you with both hands!" As he said that, Duan Kun actually raised his hands.  I was really amused by him: "You don't call it welcome, you call it surrender!" Duan Kun said seriously: "Surrender means surrender, I will bow down under your pomegranate skirt!" Hearing what he said, Chu Chen just couldn't laugh or cry.  Zhenzhen was even more stunned and froze on the spot.  She didn't even know what to say. After a while, she raised her fist and said viciously: "Duan Kun, are you still shameless? Believe it or not, I will beat you up!" Duan Kun said with a smile: "Really  Really, I¡¯m just shameless in front of you, but in front of outsiders, I¡¯m quite a tough guy!¡± As he spoke, he patted his chest hard, making a loud ¡°bang bang¡± sound.  Zhenzhen said in a dumbfounded voice: "You are hopeless!" Even so, she really fell for Duan Kun's tricks, which can be seen from her blushing cheeks.  Seeing this, Chu Chen secretly gave Duan Kun a thumbs up, and Duan Kun also smiled proudly.  "Hmph!" Seeing Duan Kun's smile, Zhenzhen snorted coldly, and then said to Chu Chen: "Brother Chu, if you can help me cure the disease, it is a gift to me. Since you don't want to  If you want to charge for the treatment fee, I will give you a gift. You should accept it, right? " Yesterday when Zhenzhen was having a late night snack, Zhenzhen mentioned the treatment fee. Of course Chu Chen would not accept it.  , Firstly, this is because of Duan Kun's relationship, and secondly, to put it harshly, Zhenzhen is actually his test subject. In this case, Chu Chen will certainly not charge any treatment fee.  " Later, when Zhenzhen saw that he could not persuade Chu Chen, he did not say more about the matter. Chu Chen did not expect that she actually brought a gift today, which must be worth a lot of money.  Chu Chen quickly said: "It's okay to accept gifts, but they can't be too expensive. I will definitely not accept anything that is too expensive."He said with a smile: "Don't worry, this thing really doesn't have much value to me, so you have to accept it!" "If it's really not an expensive gift, then I will definitely accept it." Chu Chen  He nodded.  "As promised, don't cheat!" Zhenzhen said as he took out the things, but they were two embroidery works.  Chu Chen originally thought it was Shu embroidery, but after taking a closer look, he discovered that it was actually a tapestry work.  Kesi, also known as "cut silk", is the most traditional type of silk fabric in my country that picks out the warp and reveals the weft. It is a highly ornamental decorative silk fabric.  Since the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Kesi has been one of the royal fabrics. It is often used to weave the clothes of emperors and empresses, royal portraits (imperial portraits) and imitate famous people¡¯s calligraphy and paintings.  Because the weaving process is extremely meticulous, the imitation of the tapestry is often better than the original work, and the surviving fine works are extremely rare. They are often known as "one inch of silk tapestry, one inch of gold" and "the sage of weaving".  Chu Chen was speechless and said: "Zhenzhen, this is a tapestry work, and you actually said it doesn't have much value?" Zhenzhen said with an innocent face: "I originally picked up these two pieces for two thousand yuan. Two thousand yuan."  Isn't it cheap?" "Can you say that?" Chu Chen said in a confused voice.  "Hey! We just agreed not to cheat. Duan Kun can prove it, right?" After saying that, Zhenzhen stared at Duan Kun.  Seeing this situation, how could Duan Kun say no? Besides, he didn¡¯t think there was anything wrong, it was only a few million.  You know, Chu Chen's uncle did him a favor and let him earn five million. Even if these two things really cost several million, it would be enough to compensate him by himself.  Chu Chen shook his head: "This is not possible. If it costs tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, then it will be nothing if I accept it. However, the value of these two tapestry pieces may be nearly one million. How can I have the nerve to accept them?"  . Let¡¯s make a compromise. I¡¯ll buy these two tapestry pieces, and then you can give me a discount, just 95% off. What do you think?¡± Seeing Chu Chen¡¯s determined look,  Zhenzhen could only agree to this plan, but she definitely disagreed with the 15% discount. She refused directly: "This is not possible, it must be 30% off!"  Come on!" Chu Chen shook his head.  "Okay, okay!" Duan Kun smiled and smoothed things over: "You two are really fun. The ones you sell are not cheap enough, and the ones you buy are not expensive enough. With your behavior, you don't know how long you will have to bargain.  , let me give you a discount price, 66% off, 66% off, what do you think?¡± The two pondered for a while, and felt that what Duan Kun said was indeed reasonable, and the 66% off was also in line with their needs.  The idea came to mind and I agreed.  Seeing that Chu Chen agreed, Zhenzhen smiled and said: "Brother Chu, look at these two tapestry paintings. I think they should be works from the Qing Dynasty. I don't know whether they are true or false." Chu Chen said with a smile: "Zhenzhen.  , you should know that tapestry is a special hand-woven embroidery. Its craftsmanship is very complicated and difficult to imitate, so most people will not bother to imitate it. We generally do not need to consider it when appraising tapestry.  Regarding the authenticity and forgery of materials, the main issue in the identification of tapestry is to determine its age, place of origin and author, that is to say when, where and who made the tapestry. " "Oh, so that's it.  !" Zhenzhen said suddenly.  Next, Chu Chen unfolded both works and found that they were exactly a pair.  These two works should be a hanging screen, quite huge in size, with a height of nearly 80 centimeters and a width of more than 40 centimeters. The tapestry is woven with a dark eight-treasure pattern, with cloud patterns and bat-pattern angular teeth installed at the four corners of the frame.  It forms a pattern of flowing clouds and hundreds of bats, which means happiness and longevity.  On the two Kesi works, one has the inscription "One Year" and the other has the inscription "Kangtai". The style of calligraphy is graceful and rich.  The reason why the ancients expressed the preciousness of Kesi works as "an inch of Kesi silk is an inch of gold" is first of all because Kesi requires a huge amount of man-hours and requires thousands of strands of silk to achieve its craftsmanship, "like a woman's garment, which only takes her whole year to complete".  Secondly, Kesi technique is easy to learn but difficult to master. Although copying Kesi calligraphy and painting, it is not a simple matter of copying gourds and painting ladles. It requires proficient craftsmanship and considerable artistic accomplishment in calligraphy and painting. Many Kesi calligraphy and paintings have high artistic appreciation value.  In the Qing Dynasty, tapestry was gradually monopolized by the royal family because of its preciousness, and it also flourished because of the attention of the emperor and nobles.  During the Qianlong period, the tapestry craftsmanship reached its peak, and the "three-color gold" tapestry technique using red twisted gold threads, light twisted gold threads, and silver threads in dark or light colors appeared.  Later, new techniques such as embroidery, painting, and three-blue tape were also developed. They were used cross-fertilizer and achieved excellent artistic effects.  Although the pair of hanging screens in front of you looks simple, the exquisite technology and the dense use of silk make it look really graceful, luxurious and pleasing to the eye, which makes Chu ChenIt's breathtaking.  And this tapestry style was the top craftsmanship during the Qianlong period.  Chu Chen praised: "These two works are not only from the Qing Dynasty, but also fine products made from the palace tapestry during the Qianlong period. They are very rare. However, it is a pity that these two hanging screens were originally framed with red sandalwood frames.  Yes, it would be even more perfect if it were original." Zhenzhen said with a smile, "If it really had a rosewood frame, I wouldn't have found such a leak!" Chu Chen nodded with a smile.  That¡¯s right, there must be gain after loss, but are you really willing to give up such a good Kesi work to me?¡±
