Happy Tycoon

Liu Minghan, who had been carrying the video camera, said, This seems to be a silk copy.

Poor Tangtang, the boss of a large real estate development company, can only work as a cameraman here today.

As soon as he said that he wanted to take the scroll, Mr. Liu asked his son to take out the camera. This kind of thing is best to be photographed all the way so that the files can be preserved. In case any rare treasure is found in the painting scroll, the video materials taken can also prove the source of this rare treasure.

Mr. Liu turned his head and glared at his son, and said angrily: You don't need to talk, just take a good camera. If there are any missing shots, the family will take care of you!

Liu Minghan shrank his neck and didn't dare to say a word.

At this time, none of the old men cared about Liu Minghan's embarrassment, and all their attention was on this scroll.

Is it a word? Still painting?

No one knows at this time.

But what is certain is that Zhao Lingrang made such a low-level painting to cover up this scroll, which is enough to prove that this scroll is definitely not an ordinary thing.

I opened it? Even Guo Lao's voice was a little nervous.

Several old men nodded, and then Mr. Guo carefully began to open the scroll.

As a result, as soon as a small part of the scroll was exposed, several old men gasped in unison, and then turned into sculptures. Even Mr. Guo couldn't help standing up straight, staring blankly at the small part that was exposed, motionless.

As for Liu Minghan who has been taking pictures at the side, he also seems to be stupid.

It's no wonder these old men behaved like this, it's really because the five characters on the small part of the silk script that were just exposed are too shocking.

Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival, there are five inscriptions and postscripts in thin gold, and there is a small seal of Shuanglong under this inscription.

After a long time, Old Xiao rushed forward as if he had gone crazy. If it wasn't for Yang Jing's sharp eyesight and hands to hug the old man, maybe the old man would have knocked his head on the table.

Several other old men also started to go crazy, shaking their heads or rubbing their eyes, Mr. Huang was wandering around the room like a headless fly

Everyone in the room belonged to Yang Jing, who was calm, after all, he already knew what this silk book was.

Yang Jing held Elder Xiao who was still a bit crazy in one hand, and patted senior brother Liu Minghan with the other. After waking the senior brother out of his daze, he said loudly: Four masters, can we calm down a little? Not sure if it's true!

Yang Jing said this in a loud voice, and the whole hall was buzzing.

All the old men slowly calmed down, with embarrassing expressions on their faces, but Old Xiao turned his head to stare at Yang Jing and said, Why don't you let me go quickly, boy? This is the Qingming Riverside Scene How did you calm me down?

Well, this old man seems really anxious. It's no wonder that the master, who has been immersed in calligraphy and painting for a lifetime, suddenly saw the inscription and postscript of Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival in a thin gold body, and the small seal of the double dragon below, of course he couldn't calm down.

Old Liu and Cai Yi came over, and they hugged Old Xiao, which made Old Xiao gradually quiet down.

After the emotions of several old men calmed down, Mr. Guo licked his lips and asked: Old fellows, do you say that this inscription and this small seal of Shuanglong are true? My God, if it is true , we can all be famous in history!

Xiao Lao angrily pulled Guo Laopa aside, put on white gloves and reading glasses, picked up the magnifying glass, and said: If the name goes down forever, it's not you, but Xiaojing, okay? No matter where you come from In other words, this painting was bought by Xiao Jing.

As he said that, Mr. Xiao moved up with a magnifying glass, and several other old men also surrounded him, so that Liu Minghan had to remind him aloud: Uncles, please leave me a space, I have to take pictures ah.

The old men ignored Liu Minghan's words at all, and Yang Jing pulled a chair from the side in desperation, took the camera in Liu Minghan's hand, and stood on the chair with the camera in hand, condescendingly filming the appraisal of Mr. Xiao. The process of the five-character inscription and the Ssangyong seal.

The room was quiet, and no one dared to disturb Mr. Xiao at this time.

After all, there is a scroll of paintings that is very likely to be the authentic work of Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival. At this time, even big names like Mr. Liu are like a child nervously waiting for the results.

Although I haven't seen the whole picture of this painting yet, after all, this painting is taken from the scroll of Jiangning Dajiang Map drawn by Zhao Lingrong himself, and when Mr. Guo took the scroll just now, he was very sure of it. I said that the Jiangning Dajiang Picture has never been mounted twice or three times since it was mounted, and it is completely original. In other words, this aspect of time alone is enough to prove that this volume of silk was hidden in the scroll during the Northern Song Dynasty.

Coupled with the five-character inscription of Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival in thin gold and the seal of the small seal of Shuanglong below, this is enough to prove that the newly discovered silk copy has a probability of more than 90% that it is A Picture of Shanghe during the Qingming Festival authentic.

Although the incomplete scroll Along the River During the Qingming Festival in the Palace Museum is now recognized as the authentic work of Zhang Zeduan, in fact, all these old experts understand that even the incomplete silk scroll, no one can 100% prove that it is The authentic work of Zhang Zeduan.

After all, in the 900 years of history from the Northern Song Dynasty to modern times, there have been as many as 30 to 40 versions of Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival. Although some versions have been confirmed who copied them, more versions have not yet been determined Who imitated it. That being the case, who can be 100% sure that the fragmented scroll in the Palace Museum is the authentic work of Zhang Zeduan?

The incomplete volume of the collection in the Palace Museum is also incomplete. According to many historical books, there should be a section of the painting of the remote suburbs in front of the original Along the River During the Qingming Festival, and there is a signature inscribed in the thin gold script of Song Huizong and his collection. The imprint of the small seal of the Ssangyong, but on the fragmented volume collected by the Palace Museum, these are gone.

Moreover, many experts have inferred from various historical books and materials that there should be a part behind the authenticity of Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival, because the painting should not stop abruptly as soon as it enters Kaifeng City, but should end at Jinming Lake. Many experts believe that since this painting is named Surfing the River During the Qingming Festival, its meaning is to go to the riverside during the Qingming Festival. However, in the fragmented copy collected by the Palace Museum, the master and servants are traveling together by the willow tree at the end of the picture. It can be regarded as the protagonist of reverie, so the meaning of the name of Along the River During the Qingming Festival can be completely interpreted.

But in any case, the remnants of the volume collected by the Palace Museum are very incomplete, and there is also a saying of five feet in the back in historical materials, and the most important five-character inscription and postscript of Song Huizong Zhao Ji and the small seal of Shuanglong are missing, which is even more important. It is impossible to prove that the fragmented volume is the authentic work of Zhang Zeduan.

It's just that although many people know this matter well, no one dares to bring it up.

Suddenly, such a silk copy appeared in the eye circle, and it was taken from the scroll of the painting by the famous Northern Song Dynasty painter Zhao Lingrang. It is no longer proving the true identity of this volume of silk.

Dangdangdang The grandfather clock suddenly rang in the silent hall, and the time had already reached ten o'clock in the evening without knowing it.

Accompanied by the ten sudden bells, the solemn atmosphere that was about to drip suddenly relaxed a bit.

Mr. Xiao raised his head, wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve, and said with a wry smile, I'm so nervous, I'm afraid I've never been so nervous in my life. He made it up, and when he's getting old, he feels a little numb. gone.

Several old men laughed, and the tense atmosphere in the room became lighter.

Senior brother Liu Minghan asked: Uncle Xiao, how is your appraisal? Are the inscriptions and seals real?

Mr. Xiao glared at Liu Minghan angrily, and then said with a wry smile: I'm not sure. Although I am 100% sure in my heart that the five-character inscription and the small seal of Shuanglong are the authentic works of Zhao Ji, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, but I can't help myself. It’s not enough to be sure by yourself, this involves a lot of things, Lao Huang, why don’t you come over and have a look?”

Huang Lao didn't refuse, put on gloves and reading glasses, took the magnifying glass from Xiao Lao's hand, and leaned over it.

After a long while, Mr. Huang also stood up straight with sweat on his face and said, My opinion is the same as that of Mr. Xiao. The five-character inscription and the small seal of Shuanglong should be authentic.

After a pause, Mr. Huang continued: What Lao Xiao said just now is very correct. If it is another painting, it is enough to have Lao Xiao's appraisal, but this painting, even if we put it together, we dare not make a decision. Ah! It's better to organize other colleagues in the courtyard to take a look, if you can invite Mu Lao to come over and palm the eye, it will be safer.

The Mu Lao that Huang Lao said in his mouth is an older master who specializes in ancient calligraphy and painting in the Palace Museum. Although she is a woman, she is the top master in ancient calligraphy and painting.

At the teacher apprenticeship ceremony this morning, Elder Mu also came, but she went back without even attending the luncheon.

Hearing what Huang Lao said, the old men nodded. In the face of such a major event, it is very necessary to organize a considerable number of experts to appraise together. After all, this involves the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival, so it cannot be overemphasized.

Yang Jing said: Four masters, Mr. Huang, why don't we talk about the appraisal? Let's take a look at the whole painting first.

Yang Jing's words were immediately agreed by everyone, and Mr. Guo continued to carefully open the silk scroll.

Not to mention, perhaps it is because this silk scroll has been hidden in the scroll, so it is very well preserved, except that the color of the silk scroll has faded due to time, other aspects of this painting are very good.

The beginning of this painting is indeed a section of remote suburban landscape, which is similar to the situation inferred by many experts. Then, after opening it down, it is the content of the Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival that everyone is familiar with. However, at the end of the scroll, there is an extra length of about 1.5 meters, and the painting on it is the scene of the traveling master and servant finally arriving at the river.

After all the scrolls were opened, the length reached seven and a half meters, more than two meters longer than the incomplete scroll collected by the Palace Museum, and it also proved the saying of five feet lost in the back as mentioned in historical materials. The most important thing is that the scroll in front of me is extremely complete, and the overall style, layout and painting techniques are obviously better than the fragmented scroll in the Palace Museum.

In fact, at this time, the five old men present had already confirmed in their hearts that this volume of silk was the authentic work of Along the River During the Qingming Festival.
