"This situation like Ma Daoxing's is one of the types mentioned by Meng Zitao before. If the painting is authentic, then everyone is fine. If it is a fake, what will Ma Daoxing do?" Return it, the other party will definitely not agree to it, but if you don't return it, Ma Daoxing will definitely feel uncomfortable if he's not big-hearted.
Of course, if Ma Daoxing is open-minded, he may only blame himself for being blind. After all, buying antiques depends on your own eyesight, and being blind is only your own problem.
Back to the topic, since the things would be picked up for a while, we all chatted casually for a while.
Meng Zitao looked at the layout of the reception room and asked, "Shopkeeper Ma, do you mainly deal in bamboo, teeth and wooden horns?"
"That's right." Ma Daoxing nodded and said, "But it's mainly bamboo and wood utensils. There are fewer and fewer tooth horn utensils now. I think as our country's national strength increases, the sale of tooth horn utensils will definitely be completely banned."
The tooth horns Ma Daoxing mentioned refers to precious animal tusks and horns, such as ivory and rhinoceros horns. Nowadays, regulations in this area are becoming more and more strict, and it will be a matter of time before they are banned from the market.
Ma Daoxing said with a smile: "Actually, I mainly collect porcelain. I used to be in the porcelain business, but I have a problem. When I get good porcelain, I am reluctant to sell it. If this continues, my store will There is no need to open it, so I replaced it with the current utensils."
Meng Zitao smiled and said: "Then I won't take what you want."
Ma Daoxing waved his hand: "That won't happen. I will also keep it in my possession. It's been two years since I got that lotus cup. I was originally thinking about whether it could be matched. But later I found out that unless it was a leak, I wouldn't be able to keep it." With my financial strength, it is impossible to assemble one set. I have long wanted to sell it, but there has never been a good opportunity.¡±
Meng Zitao smiled. What he said was probably half true and half false. Not to mention that it was such a coincidence. Pastel Flower God Cups are rare to begin with. Even if there is only one lotus cup, it would be good to keep it at home for appreciation.
Of course, everyone knows Ma Daoxing¡¯s thoughts even if he doesn¡¯t tell them, so there is no need to reveal them.
Ma Daoxing said: "Teacher Meng, are you interested in bamboo, teeth and wooden horns?"
Meng Zitao laughed and said, "I like a lot of things, and I'm interested in anything high-quality. If Shopkeeper Ma has something good, I won't hesitate to take a look."
"Then please wait here for a while."
Ma Daoxing stood up and went out. After a while, he came in with a statue in his arms, and then asked Meng Zitao to appreciate it.
This statue uses various techniques such as high relief, hollow carving, round carving, etc. to carve a golden dragon and auspicious cloud niche. It has clear layers and precise proportions. It is combined with the Buddha statue after being carved separately. The Buddha statue has a long beard on the face. The Buddha is sitting in lotus position with his hands in the seal. The waist is cinched and the chest is open, and the shoulder-length celestial robe is worn. The edges of the clothes are smooth and the image is stable and upright. It has the characteristics of Beijing-made statues in the mid-Ming Dynasty. The whole body is gilded and the golden color is brilliant.
Chai Chengxuan looked at the statue with a strange expression: "What kind of statue is this?"
"This is the Guanyin statue." Meng Zitao looked at the statue and replied casually.
"Ah!" Chai Chengxuan said in surprise: "Is there a male Guanyin?"
"So, you are uneducated."
Shu Ze said with a smile: "Before the Tang Dynasty in our country, all statues or paintings of Guanyin Bodhisattva had the appearance of men. Many of the Guanyin works painted by Wu Daozi, the great painter of the Tang Dynasty, had a mustache. The appearance of Guanyin Bodhisattva in Tibetan Buddhism There is also a beard. "The Avatamsaka Sutra Volume 40" says: 'All living beings become the roots of the tree, and the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas become the flowers and fruits. By using the water of great compassion to benefit all living beings, the flowers and fruits of the wisdom of the Buddhas and Bodhisattvas can be achieved.'"
"In Buddhism, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva 'succeeds according to their kind' and saves all people, regardless of gender, old and young, rich and poor, and even all living beings in the three evil realms (hell, evil ghosts, and animals). As long as they are sincere and uphold the If you look for the name of the Bodhisattva, you can find it."
"So there is no so-called male and female gender for Bodhisattvas. The female image is just an appearance, a 'appearance' that appears for the convenience of saving all living beings. The ultimate goal is to facilitate all living beings, love them, and save all living beings. However, for ordinary people, For example, in real life, only mothers can do this to their children. Therefore, the female image of Guanyin Bodhisattva gradually became deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which led to the fact that Guanyin is now dominated by female images. This time I know Alright?"
Chai Chengxuan said with emotion: "I didn't expect that there is such a special emphasis. Do other Buddha statues also have teachings?"
"Of course."
Next, Shu Ze gave Chai Chengxuan some common sense about Buddhism.
After Shu Ze finished speaking, Meng Zitao said with a smile: "You know a lot about Buddhism now."
ShuZe shrugged: "Aren't I just trying to flatter my mother-in-law?"
Meng Zitao smiled and shook his head, and then said to Ma Daoxing: "Shopkeeper Ma, let me tell the truth. This male Guanyin statue is very good in all aspects, but I have some questions. Look at these two patterns. You would not have encountered it in the Ming Dynasty, and it was only used in palace works of the Qing Dynasty."
Ma Daoxing looked at where Meng Zitao was pointing, his expression a little frozen. The ornaments of the Qing Dynasty must have been transferred to the Ming Dynasty. There is no need to say more about the result.
Ma Daoxing wanted to come up with some reasons to prove that there was nothing wrong with the statue, but after thinking for a long time, he could only sigh.
¡°Teacher Meng, I¡¯m really sorry!¡±
Ma Daoxing solemnly apologized to Meng Zitao, and then went to get a pair of pen holders.
This time there was no problem. Meng Zitao also expressed his affirmation of the pen holder, and the two parties quickly negotiated the price.
This transaction made Ma Daoxing feel a little more comfortable. At this time, his wife arrived.
Meng Zitao first looked at the paintings. The peonies, magnolias, orchid bamboos, chrysanthemums, narcissus, camellias, ganoderma lucidum, plums and other seasonal flowers painted in the paintings either represent wealth and prosperity, or represent high moral integrity, and are all favored by literati. , the flowers in the volume are either outlined with fine brushstrokes, dried with old brushwork, or dyed with light ink. They have a faint and calm atmosphere, and the brushwork is free and peaceful. It can be seen that the brushwork is influenced by the predecessors of the Wu family, Shen Zhou and Chen Chun. Impact.
"Teacher Meng, what do you think of my painting?"
Meng Zitao took a sip of tea and calmed down: "Shopkeeper Ma, I'm going to pour cold water on you again."
"Are you saying there is something wrong with the painting?" Although Ma Daoxing was prepared, he still found it difficult to accept it.
Meng Zitao nodded: "Sun Kehong was a famous calligrapher and painter in the late Ming Dynasty. Because his handed down works are relatively rare, modern painting history has not written much about it, so the world does not know much about it. But during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, whether it was Both his calligraphy and painting were famous at that time, and he was admired by many famous artists."
"If this is a flower work he made, his brushwork must be a combination of fine writing and calligraphy. Look at this work. Chrysanthemums and narcissus are first outlined with thin strokes and then filled with light ink. Magnolias and wintersweets are painted sideways with thick strokes. Then add a little fine brushwork to modify it. The different effects produced by different brushwork are vividly displayed. Moreover, the broken branches and flowers are either lying down or upward, in a well-proportioned manner"
Meng Zitao called up the authentic works from his mobile phone, combined with his talk, and pointed out several issues in the paintings, which made both his uncle and nephew Ma Daoxing fascinated.
When Meng Zitao stopped commenting, the two of them suddenly felt admiration in their hearts, and they were basically convinced that Meng Zitao's judgment was not wrong.
Meng Zitao said: "Although this painting has shortcomings, it is only judged by the original work. In itself, the level of this work is also remarkable, and it should be an old imitation of the Qing Dynasty, so it is still quite valuable. of."
After listening to Meng Zitao's explanation, Ma Daoxing couldn't help but applaud and praised: "Teacher Meng has such a good eye. I didn't expect that you could see so many problems in such a short time. It's amazing. I admire you!"
"Thank you for the award." Meng Zitao smiled and was modest.
From the chat just now to the current appraisal, Ma Daoxing felt more and more that Meng Zitao was not simple. Although he didn't talk much, he was concise and concise, and he was also relatively experienced in dealing with people. Coupled with his superb eyesight, he had a vague sense of It feels like a mountain is standing tall.
Next, Meng Zitao looked at the lotus cup again, and there was nothing wrong with it. Ma Daoxing also gave a discount out of gratitude. In the end, everyone was happy with the transaction.
Including this lotus cup, Meng Zitao has a total of eight Flower God Cups in his hand. The remaining four are peony, lotus, osmanthus and peony. Among them, the most difficult to find is the osmanthus cup. He has already found it. I believe There are three Flower God Cups left and should be found soon.
Speaking of which, Pony King¡¯s sweet-scented osmanthus cup actually only costs him two million. Isn¡¯t it obvious that he would pick it up? There is neither hatred nor love without reason in this world. Pony King is not related to him, but he would take advantage of him so much. He must be the weasel paying New Year greetings to the chicken, and he must have bad intentions.
¡°Some people may say that since you know you have no good intentions, you can¡¯t go without it. That being said, there are a few people who can hold back their greed. For example, if there is an opportunity to make hundreds or tens of millions in front of you, how many people can resist this temptation?
Especially those who have some background and feel that they are very capable and will not be in any danger, they will definitely have the idea of ????competing.
"In the final analysis, this is a conspiracy. If you don't go, Pony King will have no loss. If you go, Pony King will probably be used by him, and his life will be in danger. The decision-making power lies in Meng Zitao's hands.
However, one thing is different from what Pony King thought. No matter how much he thought, he would never know that the variable he was provoking was Meng Zitao.
After the transaction was completed, Meng Zitao was about to stand up and leave when he saw someone running in shouting.
"Old Ma, I got a good thing this time"
The visitor saw that there were many people in the living room, and none of them he knew, so when the words came to his lips, he took them back.
When Ma Daoxing saw the person coming, his expression changed and sparks almost burst out of his eyes. He said hello to Meng Zitao and pulled the person out.
After a while, Meng Zitao and others heard a shout: "Impossible!" (Remember this website's website address: www.hlnovel.com)However, one thing was different from what Pony King thought. No matter how much he thought about it, he would never know that it was Meng Zitao who he provoked.
