    Guan Shuqian was very happy to hear that Meng Zitao could restore it and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. My biggest wish is to restore this work. It doesn't matter if I wait a year or two."

    Meng Zitao smiled and said, "It won't happen in a year or two. I will definitely help you repair it as soon as possible."

    "Then I'll wait for the good news."

    Guan Shuqian laughed, and then said: "By the way, please tell me the cost of repairing it."

    The restoration of paintings and calligraphy is completely manual work, and the price depends on the value of the painting and calligraphy, the degree of damage, etc. There is no uniform price.  For example, a restoration master of the Forbidden City took on a job and took a year to complete it. The restoration cost alone was as high as millions.

    Like this calligraphy and painting by Guan Shuqian, because it is a calligraphy and painting by a famous artist, it is well-preserved and is worth several million. In addition, the degree of damage is very high, so the repair price is of course high, with hundreds of thousands is normal.

    Meng Zitao thought about it for a moment and said, "About 150,000."

    Guan Shuqian said quickly: "Teacher Meng, I have inquired with several experts before, and they said it will cost at least hundreds of thousands, and the result is not guaranteed, so don't lose money."

    Meng Zitao smiled and waved his hand: "Of course not, let's sign a contract."

    Guan Shuqian said generously: "That's not necessary. How can I still disbelieve you?"

    "This is different from whether you believe it or not. The place that should be formal should still be formal." Meng Zitao said with a smile. After all, it is not something worth hundreds or thousands of dollars, so you can't be too careless.

    Meng Zitao's statement made Guan Shuqian even more relieved. His long-cherished wish was about to be fulfilled, which made him feel very happy. After signing the contract, he strongly invited Meng Zitao and Shen Yi to stay for dinner.

    ¡° However, Meng Zitao¡¯s time is really limited now, so he declined in the end and said that he would definitely visit again when he has time in the future.

    Meng Zitao sent Shen Yi back and told him to be careful during this period, not to go far away if nothing happened, and to contact him if anything happened.

    After staying in Ling City for another day, Meng Zitao was about to leave for Sanqin Province. Originally, he didn't want to leave so soon. In order to thank him, Mr. Zou found out that a collector had a hibiscus flower cup in his collection. He happened to be in Sanqin Province.  Qin's Shangluo City, and Shangluo City is not far from the location of the treasure, so he planned to go to Shangluo first to meet the collector.

    Since Meng Zitao's current goal is very big, and it is now the critical moment for Zhu Zhongshi to take the bait, he went to Shangluo this time to change his appearance alone. For this reason, he also deliberately did not let Mr. Zou talk to the man in advance.  Collector says hello.

    However, according to Mr. Zou, this collector is a bit greedy for money. If he knew that Meng Zitao wanted this Flower God Cup, he would probably offer a high price, so Mr. Zou also confessed on the phone that he had contacted a friend, Meng Zitao.  Go to Mr. Zou¡¯s friend first, and then the collector.

    Therefore, when he arrived in Shangluo, Meng Zitao first went to find Mr. Zou¡¯s friend. Mr. Zou¡¯s friend opened an antique shop specializing in calligraphy and painting business.

    When Meng Zitao walked into the antique store, there were two people bargaining in the store. One of them was an old man in his fifties. He looked like Mr. Zou said, so he should be his friend.

    The other one is a middle-aged customer. What they are bargaining for is not a painting or calligraphy work, but a piece of blue and white porcelain.

    "Lao Jiang, we are all old friends, even if it's 500 yuan cheaper!"

    "It's really not possible." Jiang Mingbao greeted him with a smile: "Boss Wu, it's not that I don't want to give you some discounts. You also know that I am in the calligraphy and painting business. This bottle was actually put on consignment by my friend. He said it is necessary.  If I sell it for 5,000 yuan, it won¡¯t be a penny less. If I sell it cheaply, how can I explain it to my friends? You can¡¯t let me give you any extra money, right?¡±

    The middle-aged customer thought for a while: "Five thousand, just five thousand, but I don't have that much money on hand. Can you give me the things first, and I will give you five hundred later."

    When Jiang Mingbao saw what he said, he felt a little alarmed. He smiled and said: "Boss Wu, I just said that the things belong to my friend. He told me that I must pay for them with one hand and deliver them with the other. There is nothing I can do about it! I hope you can  I can forgive you."

    The middle-aged customer was a little unhappy: "Lao Jiang, it's meaningless for you to say that."

    Jiang Mingbao smiled bitterly and said: "It's really not that I don't want to. If the thing is mine, I can agree to whatever you say, but this blue and white plum vase is really not good. How about you find a friend to borrow five hundred? Anyway, I can't  You know how to run away, what do you think?"

    The two talked for a few more words. When the middle-aged customer saw that Jiang Mingbao refused to agree, he felt helpless and had to ask Jiang Mingbao to wait for him for a while, and he immediately went to borrow money.

    "Lao Jiang, you have to wait for me!"

    "Just let it goA hundred hearts.  "

    Jiang Mingbao saw off the middle-aged customer, turned around and shook his head. At this time, he saw Meng Zitao holding the plum vase, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "This guest, I'm really sorry.  Something has already been decided.¡±

    Meng Zitao did not put down the plum vase, but said with a smile: "Hello, shopkeeper Jiang, my name is Shi Baixing, I was introduced here by Mr. Zou."

    Jiang Mingbao immediately became more enthusiastic after hearing this. He invited Meng Zitao to take a seat, served tea and water, and asked about Mr. Zou's physical condition.

    Meng Zitao said with a smile: "Everything is fine with Mr. Zou, and his calligraphy level has also improved a lot."

    "That's really gratifying!" Jiang Mingbao said happily: "It's a pity that Mr. Zou has ruined his reputation now, otherwise it would be that young man's turn to be the contemporary Grass Saint!"

    Meng Zitao wanted to laugh a little after hearing this. If Jiang Mingbao knew that the real master was sitting in front of him, I wonder what his reaction would be.

    The two chatted for a while, and Meng Zitao turned the topic to the plum vase.

    "Shopkeeper Jiang, are you familiar with Kangxi porcelain?"

    ¡°I am not familiar with porcelain appraisal.¡±

    Speaking of this, Jiang Mingbao reacted: "You mean, this plum vase is authentic from the Kangxi period? But there is something wrong with this. My friend should not be mistaken."

    "Perhaps your friend made a mistake. Look at the decoration on the plum vase. It is obviously a characteristic of the Kangxi period"

    The porcelain of the Kangxi period inherited the legacy of the Ming Dynasty and formed a distinctive style of the era. In terms of landscape decoration, the Kangxi blue and white landscape decoration not only followed the styles of Ming and Qing masters such as Wang Shigu and Wu Mojing in painting techniques, but also followed the traditions of the Song and Yuan Dynasties.  Techniques, in painting, ax chopping and hemp chaffing techniques are often used to express mountains and rocks, and the water dividing method is used to render yin and yang in opposite directions and with appropriate shades.

    ????????????????????????????????????????  When appreciating a Kangxi blue and white landscape figure work, people often feel that they are not simply appreciating a piece of porcelain, but more of an exquisite ink landscape painting.

    Meng Zitao gave some explanations, and Jiang Mingbao¡¯s accomplishments in calligraphy and painting also approved Meng Zitao¡¯s judgment.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
