    Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Let me ask you a question, if there are lazy grass and grass roots in front of a horse, which one will it choose to eat first?"

    Hardware said directly: "Of course it is to eat young grass."

    Meng Zitao said: "That's it, no matter how tall the grass is, the horse will start eating from the grass. Since it starts eating from the grass, what is it doing with its eyes closed? And the wild horse eats grass with its eyes closed, isn't it?  Aren't you afraid of being in danger? As for eating grass in the trough, that's even more okay, because it's all chopped grass, and it's not afraid of piercing its eyes at all."

    After listening to Meng Zitao¡¯s explanation, Hardware felt that it made sense.

    Meng Zitao then said: "It is impossible for the palace painter not to understand this truth. There must be something wrong with that painting."

    Wu Jin nodded repeatedly to express his approval. After all, as a palace painter, he should be very experienced and could not make such a mistake. Moreover, he also felt that this painting was a bit strange, because other animals had auspicious meanings, and this one  The painting shows a white horse eating grass. Compared with other paintings, the artistic conception is a bit strange.

    Thinking like this, Hardware also felt that the painting might be a post-paint. Then, he felt that Yang Ruifeng was very pitiful for spending a lot of money to buy a set of defective screens. Although this was not the case, the screens were still very precious, but they were not as valuable as the whole device.  Compared to that, the value difference is too small.

    At this time, Meng Zitao asked: "I wonder how much you know about this person named Yang?"

    Wu Jin shook his head: "I don't know much about him, but this person is quite mysterious. Few people in my circle of friends know about him, and as far as I know, he doesn't do other business, and he doesn't know what he usually does."  How to make money."

    In the antique business, the word "mysterious" more or less represents a problem, because the antique community attaches great importance to communication. If a person is famous and everyone knows you, they will give you good things and the more information they get.  many.

    Therefore, people like Yang Ruifeng are obviously not in line with common sense.  Thinking of Yun Dingsong and the others again, Meng Zitao had some vague guesses in his mind, so he decided to have someone investigate him. After all, this was one of his current jobs.

    After leaving the villa, Hardware made a phone call. When he hung up the phone, he smiled and said to Meng Zitao: "Shopkeeper Meng, I'm really embarrassed today. My friend here also has some good things on his hands. I don't know.  Are you interested?"

    Meng Zitao didn¡¯t want to leave empty-handed, so he asked: ¡°What is it?¡±

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????? ¡°Basically, it¡¯s all entertainment.¡±

    "Okay, where is your friend?"

    "My friend is not far from where we are now. How about we go to a teahouse not far ahead to wait for him? It only takes ten minutes by car."

    "OK¡­¡­"

    Under the guidance of the hardware, Meng Zitao's car stopped in front of a Chinese teahouse. The style of this Chinese teahouse was modeled after an ancient Chinese palace. It looked luxurious and complicated, as gorgeous as a palace.

    But when you walk into the teahouse, you can feel the cultural atmosphere everywhere, and some modern and fashionable colors and accessories are appropriately added. The grand and luxurious carpets make the whole space shine.

    In the selection of teahouse decoration materials, traditional wooden materials are used here, which makes people strongly feel the traces of tradition and rich cultural heritage. However, at the same time, the complex textures and decorations of past classicism are abandoned and the lines are simplified.

    Simply put, the decoration style here should be modern Chinese style, and it was designed by experts. The details are not perfunctory and it is very tasteful.

    Meng Zitao and Wu Jin followed the waiter into a private room. They saw that the tables and chairs inside were all made of mahogany tables and chairs imitating the Ming and Qing Dynasties. They were also decorated with elegant calligraphy banners, distant Chinese landscape paintings, and pleasant green potted plants.  , and antique purple sand ceramics, which immediately create a gentle and harmonious atmosphere.

    In addition, the tea menu here is also very special. It is made in the style of bamboo slips. It looks exquisite, cultural, interesting and clean, making guests unable to put down the scroll.

    All of these reflect the taste of the teahouse owner.

    After ordering tea and snacks, Meng Zitao praised: "The owner here is very elegant."

    Wu Jin said: "That's true. He is a member of the Suzhou Painting and Calligraphy Association and has done a lot of research on traditional Chinese painting."

    Meng Zitao smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood.

    After a while, a middle-aged man who was nearly fifty years old came in with something in his hand and followed the waiter.

    "Lao Luo, long time no see." Wu Jin stood up and said hello to the man.

    The man joked: "I can't help it, who told you that the hardware boss is a?

    Dai Guanglan was a kind-hearted person, but when they were chatting, looking at the box Meng Zitao was carrying from time to time still gave Meng Zitao a headache, because judging from the introduction of the hardware to Dai Guanglan and the decoration and furnishings of the teahouse,  I know that Dai Guanglan is probably also fond of literature and entertainment.

    Especially the seed material toy piece, Meng Zitao believed that Dai Guanglan would like it at first sight, and he would inevitably be in trouble.

    Sure enough, after a while, Dai Guanglan implicitly asked Meng Zitao if he could show him a few artifacts.  Meng Zitao wanted to refuse directly, but he had no choice. He was in the other party's territory now, and Dai Guanglan was not annoying. It would be too rude to refuse, so he had to agree.

    Dai Guanglan seemed very happy. He invited everyone to his office, invited everyone to take a seat, and asked the waiter to serve everyone tea.

    Maybe because he didn¡¯t want to appear too eager, at this time, Dai Guanglan did not rush to let Meng Zitao open the box, but took out a painting for everyone to appreciate.

    Before opening the scroll, Dai Guanglan smiled and introduced that this was the "Golden Pheasant" he recently obtained. Please take a look and see if it is right.

    Of course, everyone knows that this is Dai Guanglan¡¯s humble statement. It is impossible to make a copy based on his status.

    However, it is precisely because of this that everyone is somewhat moved.

    Because this Lu Ji was a famous court painter in the Ming Dynasty. He was good at flowers and birds, as well as trees and stones.  The painting style is rich and splendid, ancient and dazzling. It is capable of both meticulous sketching and ink freehand brushwork.

    He first learned Bian Jingzhao's fine brushwork, and was also influenced by Lin Liang's ink painting method. Later, he followed the famous works of other artists in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and integrated them into a whole that is unique in the contemporary era.  Contributed to the development of flower-and-bird painting.

    Lu Ji's works are also very popular in the auction market. For example, "Red Plum Turtle Dove" is one of Lu Ji's masterpieces.

    This work was featured in the autumn auction of a domestic auction company in 1997. At that time, the work was estimated at 500,000 to 800,000 yuan, but was finally sold for only 517,000 yuan.

    When it was re-launched on another auction company in 2002, the estimate was as high as 2.6 to 3.6 million yuan. Although the estimate was much higher than the original transaction price, given that the prices of ancient Chinese calligraphy and paintings have shown a sharp rise, and because of Lu Ji's  His works are very rare in private circulation, so "Red Plum Turtle Dove" was finally auctioned for a high price of 2.816 million.

    ¡°If what Dai Guanglan produced was an authentic work, the current market conditions and general conditions would probably be worth at least several million. How could anyone not be tempted by such a masterpiece by a famous artist?

    When Dai Guanglan carefully opened the scroll, everyone saw that the painting was a pair of golden pheasants with dark colors. The brushwork was meticulous, but the color was still mainly ink. Only the eyes and feet of the golden pheasants were bright red.

    Meng Zitao put on his gloves, held the tool, and began to appreciate it carefully.

    There are two styles of Lu Ji's painting style: in the early years, it was the delicate Bian Jingzhao style, and after being influenced by Lin Liang, it became bold and bold with ink and light colors. His meticulous brushwork and heavy colors, exquisite workmanship, and many paintings of phoenixes, cranes, peacocks, and mandarin ducks  and so on, supplemented by the background of trees, slopes, rocks, beaches and flowing springs, it is both legal and full of vitality.

    On the other hand, the painting should be freehand ink and wash as much as possible, with freehand brush strokes, concise and unrestrained, close to Lin Liang's style.  He is also good at figures and landscapes, following the painting methods of Ma Yuan and Xia Gui of the Southern Song Dynasty.  His flower-and-bird painting style had a great influence both inside and outside the court at that time.

    After observation, Meng Zitao found that this painting was also in line with the characteristics of Lu Ji in his later years. It was exquisitely crafted and rich, and very pleasing to the eye. The painting method of mountains, rocks and flowing water clearly showed traces of Ma Yuan and Xia Gui, the "courtyard painters" of the Southern Song Dynasty.

    However, what makes Meng Zitao feel strange is that there is nothing wrong with this painting, but he always feels that there is something unfinished about the charm (remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
