I Can Extract Abilities From Antiques

103. This friend is not free (3/5)

Liuli Factory.

Hu Muzhi squeezed the handbrake, and the car stopped steadily at the door of Boguju.

After pulling out the car key, Hu Muzhi got out of the car and walked into Boguju.

Boguju, a cultural relics shop specializing in the Four Treasures of the Study.

The decoration of the shop is quaint and antique, and there are all kinds of writing brushes, pen holders, inkstones and pen racks in the containers..

There was only one woman in the store.

This woman, Hu Muzhi, met at the disaster relief party. She was Wang Luotian's girlfriend, Chen Yan.

"Hello, Wang Luotian asked me to come over to help appreciate a painting and calligraphy of Tang Yin." Hu Muzhi expressed his intention.

"Hello." Chen Yan nodded towards Hu Muzhi: "My name is Chen Yan, I'm Luo Tian's girlfriend~friend."

"Nice to meet you. 55 Hu Muzhi guest - a sentence.

"You sit down and I'll fetch the painting for you." Chen Yan said, first poured a cup of tea for Hu Muzhi, and then went to the back room office.

When he came out, there was already a rectangular brocade box in his hand. After opening it, a pair of paintings and calligraphy were lying quietly inside.

Hu Muzhi carefully took out the painting and calligraphy from the brocade box, untied the red rope, spread it on the counter, and looked at it carefully.

This is a portrait of a lady.

Seal: Nanjing Jieyuan, Liuru lay Buddhist.

These two titles are Tang Yin's names for himself.

Tang Yin, courtesy name Bohu, number Liuru lay Buddhist, master of Taohua Temple, etc., was a painter, calligrapher and poet in the Ming Dynasty.

At the age of 30, he went to Beijing for an examination, and was dismissed because of his involvement in the examination. His wife remarried, and his life was bumpy.

Later, he traveled to famous mountains and rivers, and became famous all over the world for selling literature and paintings.

In the early years, he studied painting with Shen Zhou and Zhou Chen, the patriarchs of Li Tang and Liu Songnian.

The figure painter follows the tradition of the Tang Dynasty, with bright and elegant colors, graceful posture and accurate modeling; he also works on freehand figures, with concise and comprehensive brushwork, which is very interesting. His flower and bird paintings are more free and easy than freehand brushwork. The calligraphy is strange and handsome, and the style is Zhao Mengfu.

In poetry and prose, together with Zhu Yunming, Wen Zhengming, and Xu Zhenqing, they are called "Four Talents of Wuzhong"

In painting, together with Shen Zhou, Wen Zhengming and Qiu Ying, they are called "Four Schools of Ming Dynasty"

Beauty is what he loves, and the beauties in his writings are known for being elegant, beautiful, dignified and vivid.

His lady paintings are roughly divided into two types. One is derived from the Southern Song Dynasty style.

The other is the one in the hands of Hu Muzhi.

The lines are thin, the color is beautiful, and the artistic conception is high and far-reaching. The "three white methods" are used to dye the faces of the ladies.

That is, the forehead, the bridge of the nose and the chin are decorated with pink and white.

The texture of the clothes is depicted with thin and smooth iron lines, and the clothes are painted with bright colors, making them look gorgeous.

The court prostitutes compete to dress up, and the demeanor of competition is vividly portrayed.

After appreciating for a while, Hu Muzhi re-rolled the painting and gave his own judgment: "A very good painting, no problem."5

Chen Yan heard the words and continued: "Fortunately, I have your appreciation. If it is a fake, I don't know how to explain it to the shopkeeper in the store."5

"Sit down for a while, Luo Tian just called and said that on the way back, when he comes, let's have a meal together.

Hu Muzhi was not interested in Chen Yan's invitation.

Because now he has only one thought, that is to go back to sleep.

He waved his hand and said, "Next time, next time I will ask. 99

After he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the shop.

As soon as she got on the car, Chen Yan chased after her, holding a thick kraft paper bag in her hand.

"Hu Muzhi, thank you for doing me such a big favor, this is my little thought, you take it. With that, Chen Yan handed the kraft paper bag in her hand to Hu Muzhi.

"What?" Hu Muzhi took it, opened it and glanced at it, and found that it actually contained money.

Look at the thickness, at least 20,000.

"Is Luo Tian asking you to give it to me?" Hu Muzhi asked.

"No no no. Chen Yan waved her hands again and again: "It's a little bit of my heart.

"Can you get such a generous reward for helping to appreciate a painting?" Hu Muzhi asked with a smile, but his heart was like a mirror.

"Uh..." Chen Yan was stopped by Hu Muzhi's question, and she didn't know how to answer for a while.

"Don't lie to me." Hu Muzhi smiled and shook his head: "Actually, you are not an employee of Boguju at all."

・・・・Seeking flowers・

"How do you know?" Chen Yan asked subconsciously, and then realized that she had said the wrong thing, and immediately covered her mouth.

Hu Muzhi smiled and explained: "First, if there is no nod and consent from the appraiser and the shopkeeper like this Tang Yin's calligraphy and painting, it is impossible for the staff to take the initiative to accept it."

"Second, if you were an employee of Boguju, when Luo Tian picked out the 80th birthday gift for his grandfather, you wouldn't go to Guxuan Pavilion.

"Because there are a lot of boutique four treasures of the study on the container of Boguju, he has no reason not to take care of his girlfriend's performance.""

Chen Yan heard the words and smiled bitterly: "Luo Tian said before that your observation skills are amazing, so I acted like a little bit, but I didn't expect it to be hidden from you. 35

"Why do this play?" Hu Muzhi asked.

"Luo Tian said that you encountered some difficulties, and you were thin-skinned, so you were embarrassed to say it, so you came up with this method." Chen Yan replied.

"I'm in trouble? I'm still thin-skinned? Who did he listen to?" Hu Muzhi was dumbfounded.

"Why did you go to Panjiayao to set up a stall in the middle of the night if you didn't encounter difficulties?" Chen Yan asked back.

Going to Panjiayao to set up a stall is to encounter difficulties? What kind of logic is this?

Just as Hu Muzhi was about to give a good explanation, Chen Yan continued: "I have known Luo Tian since childhood, and there are not many people who can help him so sincerely, you count as one."5

"So this money, you must accept it.

When Hu Muzhi heard this, the expression on his face froze. He did not expect that Wang Luotian would value his friendship so much.

"Actually, Luo Tian misunderstood him. I didn't encounter any difficulties, and I'm not a thin-skinned person." After speaking, Hu Muzhi stuffed the kraft paper bag back to Chen Yan.

Seeing that Chen Yan had no intention of accepting it, she continued: "If I really encounter any difficulties, I will definitely take the money.

"But...."

"There's nothing wrong with it." Hu Muzhi smiled and said, "You help me tell Luo Tian that I didn't pay him as a friend in vain.

After finishing speaking, Hu Muzhi didn't give Chen Yan a chance to react, he stuffed the money, started the car, and left Boguju.

However, Hu Muzhi did not go back to the courtyard directly, but went to work at Guxuan Pavilion.
