    The group of people walked into the reception room, and Ren Yifan invited everyone to take a seat one by one, and asked the clerk to serve tea.  When Boss Lu came in just now, he introduced his friend. This person is also a boss, and his surname is Kai. This surname is relatively rare. It is said that he is a descendant of Uncle Kang, the son of King Wen of Zhou Jichang.  Then, Ren Yifan also introduced Chu Chen.  Hearing that the young man in front of him was Chu Chen, Boss Lu said suddenly and excitedly: "It turns out to be the famous Director Chu. I wonder why he looks so familiar!" As he said that, he quickly shook hands with Chu Chen enthusiastically.  Chen also responded politely.  After the greetings, the boss took out the thing he wanted to appraise, a picture of a broken peach blossom signed by Yun Shouping.  In the picture scroll, two peach trunks extend from the outside inward from the right side of the painting, and their priority is clear. Many branches and leaves grow from the peach trunks, and the flowers are blooming like clouds. The flowers are clustered here and there, either in clusters or singly.  , sparse or dense, blooming or budding, and the crotch echoes.  Yun Shouping is known for his flower paintings.  His paintings are simple and exquisite, with bright colors, innocence and elegance. After washing away the habits of the times, he breathed a fresh wind into the painting world of the early Qing Dynasty and had a broad and profound influence on the painting world of the Qing Dynasty and beyond.  Just like this painting, the overall color charm is clear and cool. The beauty, brightness, cleanness and elegance contain a kind of desolation and sadness, which is somewhat in line with the "ease" that Yun Shouping pursues in painting.  However, this alone cannot of course mean that this painting is the authentic work of Yun Shouping, because such a master of painting as Yun Shouping, whether alive or after his death.  There are many imitators, and even among the counterfeiters are the students he taught so hard.  For example, Fan Tingzhen is said to have "a pen and ink very similar to that of Nan Tian (Yun Shouping), and many fake paintings by Yun Zhi were made by him".  It took a while.  After appreciating the painting carefully, Ren Yifan thought about it briefly in his mind before speaking to the boss and said: "This painting uses the 'boneless flower' technique. This kind of painting does not use ink to outline the bones.  Directly painted in color. In the Tang Dynasty, Yang Sheng used the "boneless method" to paint landscapes, which was called "boneless landscape". In the Northern Song Dynasty, Xu Chongsi used the "boneless method" to paint flowers. He was the founder of "boneless flower".  He developed Xu Chongsi's "boneless flower" painting method and created a new style of painting. "Generally speaking, Yun's method of painting flowers is to use white chalk with a little rouge.  Then it is rendered with rouge, while others dye it from the root of the petal. This painting method is obviously different from others, and the effect of this painting method is obviously better than that of ordinary painters. " "But this painting,  Although the "boneless flower" technique is used, I don't see much of Yun Shouping's originality. The brushwork is light and weak, lacking the connotation and charm of Yun's paintings" Having said that.  Ren Yifan's face immediately darkened when he saw his boss, and he decided to make a quick decision, so he sped up his speech and said: "The highest goal that Yun Shouping pursues in his life is the word 'yi'. 'Yi' means transcendence and leisure. In line with this.  'Yi''s paintings have a particularly high style and spirit. Although this painting also captures this point, the painting method is wrong and affects the overall feeling. On the other hand, it feels a bit rigid.  Just scratched the surface" Hearing this.  Boss Kai interrupted him, pointed to the inscription on the painting, and said, "You said this painting is fake, but there is also an inscription and seal written by the governor of Su Province. Is this still fake?" Ren Yifan  He smiled and said: "This is exactly what I want to say. There were quite a few collections like this from a certain governor on the market the year before last. If you don't believe me, ask Director Chu if this is the case." Chu Chen nodded.  Indeed.  Ren Yifan continued: "What's more funny is that the inscription is really good. It's actually better than the inscription on the painting, and it's much better. Isn't this a joke?"  You must know that Yun Shouping is a painter worthy of the name "Three Wonders of Poetry, Calligraphy, and Painting". His painting inscriptions and postscripts are very distinctive, and his calligraphy level is extremely high, which is beyond the reach of ordinary paintings.  If Yun Shouping was not a painter, he would still be famous for his calligraphy.  ¡°If this governor¡¯s calligraphy was better than Yun Shouping¡¯s, he would have been famous a long time ago. Why have neither Ren Yifan nor Chu Chen heard of him in the calligraphy and painting circles?  Speaking of this, Ren Yifan saw that the boss was still dubious, so he pointed to the signature of the painting and said: "Look what it says, 'Mao Ding'! How can there be any chronology that says this?" "Yes.  Ah!" At this time, Boss Lu also reacted: "The date is 'Ding Mao'." "Uh maybe there is such a way to write dates in ancient times?" In fact, Boss Kai already believed this.  There's something wrong with the painting, I just feel like I can't live with it in terms of face.?Hold on.  Chu Chen felt a little funny in his heart. He has grown so big, but he really hasn¡¯twell!  An idea flashed in his mind, and he thought that something in history might really use "Maoding" to mark dates. This thing was Maoding cloth.  Maoding cloth is one of the empty first cloths in the Spring and Autumn Period.  There is a text on the right side of the face that looks like the word "Maoding" in seal script, hence its name.  Because of the doubts in the interpretation, this kind of empty-headed cloth was also interpreted as "Maoliu", "Mao Niu", and "Liu" cloth.  "Maoliu, could it be related to that poem?" Chu Chen couldn't help but ponder.  "Okay!" Boss Lu patted him on the shoulder: "As for antiques, it's common to get blindsided. There's nothing to be ashamed of once or twice." Boss Kai said with a grimace: "The key is that I bought it.  The first painting is so unlucky!¡± Boss Lu said with a smile: ¡°You are just too superstitious. I came here the same way, wasn¡¯t it good? But I was surprised that it was your first time to buy something.  , why didn¡¯t you ask an expert to help check it?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, I didn¡¯t know why at first, so I listened to the seller¡¯s trick and bought the thing.¡± At this point, the boss sighed again.  With an annoyed look on his face, after a while, he asked again: "Mr. Ren, is this painting worthless at all?" Ren Yifan thought about it and said, "You can't say that, after all, although the author is not up to par,  Yun Shouping's skills are not good, but his painting skills are really good." Boss Kai could also tell that Ren Yifan didn't think highly of the painting.  He said: "Mr. Ren, I wonder if you will accept this painting?" Such works.  Of course Ren Yifan was not interested in accepting it, but just when he was about to refuse, Chu Chen, who was sitting next to him, suddenly said: "Boss Kai, can you give me this painting?" Chu Chen's words made everyone stunned, Ren Yifan  He asked in surprise: "Director Chu, what are you doing?" Chu Chen chuckled and said, "I mainly think the paper of this painting is good, and there are no traces of artificial aging on it, so I want to buy it back and study it."  "Paper?" Got this reminder.  Ren Yifan quickly looked at it again, and then said with some embarrassment: "I also made a preconception mistake. This painting is indeed made of paper from the Qing Dynasty, which should be more than a hundred years old." "But this 'Su'  How do you explain "Provincial Governor?" Boss Lu pointed at the inscription.  Ren Yifan explained: "It should be written deliberately by future generations in order to sell things. You can tell by looking at the ink color." "That means that this painting is indeed an antique?" Boss Kai asked in surprise.  road.  Boss Lu shook his head: "It is indeed an antique, but it is imitated by later generations, so it is not worth much, and this is superfluous. It further affects the value of the painting. Based on my experience, it is estimated to be worth a few hundred."  A thousand yuan.¡± Boss Kai originally thought that this painting was his first collection after all, and if it was worth tens of thousands.  Then he would collect it for himself. Unexpectedly, it was only worth such a small amount of money, so he immediately gave up the idea of ??collecting it.  "Director Chu, do you still want this painting?" Boss Kai asked again.  Chu Chen nodded and said: "Yes, I'll give you a thousand. I wonder what you think?" "Uh" Boss Kai hesitated again at this time. People are so strange sometimes.  Knowing that there was something wrong with the painting, he wanted to sell it and even thought of throwing it away. But now that Chu Chen was actually willing to buy the painting, he was worried that if the painting turned out to be a treasure  , didn¡¯t he lose?  However, he immediately realized that everything about this painting was so obvious, and Ren Yifan had just explained it in detail. Even he, who had no experience, knew that there was something wrong. How could there be a chance to come back to life?  Although a thousand dollars is nothing to Boss Kai, he is quite superstitious and always felt that it would be unlucky to keep this painting in his hands. After much thought, he agreed.  After completing the transaction, the two bosses sat for a while and then left.  After sending the two to the door, Ren Yifan walked back quickly and asked with a smile: "Director Chu, does this painting have something to say?" Chu Chen asked with a smile: "Why do you think so?"  Ren Yifan laughed and said: "I don't believe that you will fall in love with such a work based on your eyesight." "That's impossible to say." Chu Chen chuckled and said: "Besides, if this painting is indeed  "It's a treasure. If the owner knows about it, aren't you afraid that he will come to settle the score with you?" Ren Yifan said, "What's the matter? This is what the painting looks like. That means experts like you and Mr. Liu, otherwise we can use someone else."  , we??I believe it can also ¡®turn waste into treasure¡¯!  Moreover, he wanted to sell the items himself, and we did not force him to make a decision.  " Chu Chen smiled slightly. Even so, if it is indeed a treasure in the end, it will definitely have an impact on Ren Yifan's reputation. He said: "To tell you the truth, in fact, I just think the paper of this painting is a little thicker.  " "The paper is thick?  "Hearing what Chu Chen said, Ren Yifan quickly picked up the paper of the painting with his hands. With his rich experience, he immediately discovered that the paper of this painting was indeed thicker than ordinary paintings, and it was at least two layers thicker. With this discovery  , Ren Yifan asked in surprise: "So, it seems that the real painting is hidden underneath?  " "There is indeed such an idea.  "Chu Chen nodded. "The hidden painting is at least a fine piece. Come on, come to my house and let's uncover the painting" Being pulled out by the very excited Ren Yifan, Chu Chen secretly thought to himself  Smile, although there is indeed a painting hidden underneath, it is just a portrait of a piece of cloth, not a masterpiece. Otherwise, how could he buy it for only a thousand yuan? He had to think about it no matter what.  Regarding the impact on Ren Yifan afterwards, he is unlikely to be able to do things that benefit others at the expense of others.
