Live appraising treasures, I became a national treasure expert?

Chapter 131

Who is Yu Youren?
Famous politicians, educators, members of the Tongmenghui in modern times, revolutionary pioneers of the same period as Mr. Sun Yat-sen, early Central Executive Committee members of the Kuomintang, members of the Standing Committee of the Supreme National Defense Committee during the United Anti-Japanese War...etc.

And he is most famous for his calligraphy, especially wild cursive. There are many works that have been handed down, but the price is very high.

In comparison, the paintings that have been handed down from generation to generation can be described as limpid, probably no more than a slap in the face.Therefore, it is quite miraculous that his paintings appear in a novel.

Almost without blinking, Li Ding'an looked at it carefully again.

I still remember that, just after the system was established, the stone scripture he encountered when he entered Panjiayuan for the first time was bought by Yu Youren from a Shanghai businessman with a lot of money, hired someone to send it to Xi'an, and finally donated it to Xi'an Forest of Steles.

After that, I also watched a very passionate short story, and because of this, Li Ding'an deliberately studied Tai Youren's works.

The key point is that his painting style is highly recognizable, which can be summed up in two words: wild and scribbled, and vivid.

Just like the first illustration in this book: it is full of line drawings (no coloring), each character has a few strokes, but is lifelike, and the fierce light in his eyes seems to come out through the paper... It is exactly the same as his only handed down figure painting "Zhong Kui Picture".

Therefore, there is no need for a system appraisal at all, and Li Ding'an can break it [-]% to [-]% at a glance.

Looking at the opening poem in the painting again, if this is not Yu Youren's handwriting, who else could it be?
I missed it...

Sighing softly, he flipped through it again, and there were quite a few illustrations: this is the first volume of the book, with a total of 36 chapters, each chapter has an illustration, and the book is full of narrative pictures of characters, and each picture has a chapter poem.

Without exception, all are in Yu Youren's handwriting.

Haha... Who said there is no real thing in the fake market?

Li Ding'an straightened up contentedly, and found Shu Jinghao's eyes sparkling again.

Look, when it's time to be smart, she is smarter than anyone else: she only needs to watch for a little longer, and she knows that something good is coming across again...

Smiling, Li Dingan raised the book in his hand again: "Boss, how much is it?"

The stall owner thought for a while: "The boss looks at it."

What are you talking about?

I want to say five hundred, you dare to pay back fifty thousand on the spot.

It's an old routine in the antique market, it's just a psychological tactic...

Li Ding'an nodded: "Well, this book is good, it should be quite valuable..."

The stall owner was overjoyed: Did you hit the mallet?
But in the blink of an eye, he was stunned again: Li Dingan actually put the book back?

Hey, isn't it very valuable, you are paying a price?

Seeing that he was about to leave, the stall owner stretched out his hand to stop him, and he knew in his heart: what kind of stick, this person is clearly an expert.

He thought for a while: "One thousand!"

Li Ding'an smiled: "It's high, five hundred!"

"At least 24... Did you see this line of small characters: Ye Jing copied it in Shangzhou in the [-]th year of Guangxu... something from the late Qing Dynasty!"

"Who is Ye Jing?"

The stall owner wanted to talk nonsense, but when he saw Li Dingan looking at him with a half-smile, he felt guilty: "I don't know!"

"Then you dare to ask for one thousand...just six hundred...will you sell it?"

The stall owner has a toothache.

He could earn two or three hundred, but he just felt a little aggrieved: being taught a lesson by a young man?
"Okay... scan the code, take it away..."

Li Ding'an took the book, paid the bill neatly, then turned and left.

After walking seven or eight steps, Shu Jinghao tugged at the corner of his clothes: "Did you miss it?"

"Correct!"

"A rare book?" Shu Jing tilted her head, "But Ye Jing...don't remember it?"

"It's not Ye Jing, it's the illustrations in the book..." Li Ding'an turned the pages of the book, "Did you see it, it's all drawn by Yu Youren..."

"Who, Yu Youren? Those in the book... are all of them?"

"Correct!"

Li Ding'an nodded, and felt a tightness in his waist, and when he turned his head, Shu Jinghao stood still.

His mouth was open enough to stuff a walnut, and his hand was still tightly clutching the corner of his clothes.

"what happened?"

"Yu Youren...his calligraphy was only photographed last year, and it took more than 3000 million photos..."

Li Dingan thought about it.

Really?

It is the "Spring Pond Smile" that is often ridiculed by netizens as "fuck it", four words, two square feet, and the transaction price is 800 million, plus commission, it is almost 300 million.

But it was a mature work in his later years.

Although there are words on these illustrations, they are all in italics.Looking at the time on the title page, you can tell that this is a work of his youth, so the price must be much lower.

"It's not that valuable, probably only a few million..."

"Is it a few million, a million, or nine million?"

Li Dingan thought for a while, and gave a relatively conservative figure: "At least two to three million!"

Shu Jing really didn't know what to say.

300 million is enough for her to buy a small apartment in the third ring road.

And Li Ding'an only spent [-]...

The live broadcast room was even more blown up.

"Yu Youren ever painted? I've never heard of it..."

"If you haven't heard of it, it doesn't mean you don't have it. The Shaanxi Museum of Culture and History has two paintings by him, one "National Fragrance" and one "Old Scholars"... Shanghai University also has a "Zhong Kui Picture"..."

"Is it very valuable?"

"I don't know, because there has never been a transaction record of his paintings, but compared with the price of his banners, it is definitely more than two or three million..."

"It's only a few million. To Li Anzhi, it's just a trivial matter... Regardless of how much money he makes now, it's all in 'hundred million'?"

"It's trivial for the anchor, but what about ordinary people? I earn 300 a month, and 30 million can work for [-] years without eating or drinking... What about you, brother?"

This one doesn't speak anymore...

At this moment, someone next to him called his name, and Li Ding'an turned his head subconsciously.

There are more than a dozen people in Wuwu Yangyang, both men and women, all of them are glamorous and beautiful.

Take a closer look, hey, isn't this a coincidence?
Guan Dehai, Wu Youwei, and Fang Wenwen are all there.And this time, the three of them stared fixedly at him as if they were watching a western scene.

Li Ding'an was just about to say hello, instinctively felt that the eyes of these three people were wrong, and turned his head subconsciously.

I'll go... are you still dragging?
Shu Jing also reacted well, blushed a little, and let go like flying.

"Three teachers, are you here today?"

"A friend in the circle has opened a new store here, and they came to join us..."

Wu Youwei smiled meaningfully, then looked at Shu Jinghao behind him, "Where are you going shopping with your girlfriend?"

"Ah... Teacher Wu, don't get me wrong, I'm a classmate!"

"Oh..." Guan Dehai raised his voice, and exchanged glances with Fang Wenwen and Wu Weimin.

Others don't know, so they shouldn't be too clear: when in Shanghai, which day didn't Li Ding'an and Chen Jingshu come to the venue together?
No!

At that time, I felt that she really was a man of talent and beauty... It was extremely seductive, the key was getting it right.

As the saying goes, these three are the best among them, so gradually, they saw something: Mr. Chen should have some meaning to Li Ding'an.

This is good, only a few days, but Li Ding'an took a beautiful little girl who looked like she walked out of a painting to go shopping?

Classmates...what are you talking about.

I've never seen two students of the opposite sex go shopping alone, and it's nothing more than shopping, and you still hold the corner of your clothes?
The expressions of these three became more and more strange, Li Ding'an knew it well, but couldn't explain it clearly.

You can't swear to God, can you?

He rolled his eyes, took the painting from Shu Jinghao's hand, and handed it to Guan Dehai: "It's just right, can Teacher Guan take a look?"

Knowing that he was changing the subject, Guan Dehai didn't point it out, and took the scroll: "Okay... find a place first!"

It's also a coincidence that my friend's shop is not far away, and Li Ding'an and Shu Jinghao also followed.

The store is not big, the decoration is very unique, it can be described as antique.

There are wooden shelves and counters, all of which are the Four Treasures of the Study, but they are not antiques.

After taking a look, Li Ding'an nodded secretly: Cuihuaju, a time-honored brand in the capital...

After a chatter, when introducing Li Ding'an, Guan Dehai said that he is a very famous rising star in the circle, but everyone didn't take it seriously.

Only a girl behind the boss was staring at Li Ding'an, her eyes sparkling with excitement...

Most of the people went to the counter to look at things. Guan Dehai took the painting and sat down at the coffee table. Apart from Wu Weimin and Fang Wenwen, a few people followed.

The boss beckoned the clerk to pour tea, and Shu Jing sat down next to Li Dingan, and poked him again.

"what happened?"

"She's looking at you!"

Li Dingan raised his head and took a look.

Fair and pretty girl, about the same age as him, is introducing Tao Yan to a guest at the moment.

"Oh……"

Li Dingan nodded, "It's normal!"

The voice is not loud, but you can hear what you should hear. The girl paused subconsciously, and suddenly forgot the words, not knowing how to introduce it to the guests.

So you are Li Anzhi like this?

Shu Jinghao was also a little speechless: I never realized that Li Dingan was so narcissistic?

As soon as she interrupted, she forgot that the girl looked at her more than Li Ding'an.Seeing Guan Dehai spread out the painting, she pricked up her ears again.

"Picture of evening sun on the river... an imitation of Qianlong's imperial brush?"

After only one glance, Guan Dehai raised his head, "But the painter is just average!"

"Yes, Teacher Guan, please take a look again."

Still watching?

Looks like there's still something...

Guan Dehai thought for a while, took out the magnifying glass from his pocket, looked at it again, and became interested: "Hi... Yan Shanzhi's words are rare?"

Yan Shanzhi?
Wu Weimin thought about it carefully: "I have no impression?"

"The painters of the Republic of China are not particularly famous, but Qianlong's calligraphy is very similar, and the level of authenticating calligraphy and painting is also very high, so they are very famous in the capital..."

"That's right, it's Yan Fu's words..."

Guan Dehai nodded, looked at Li Dingan again, and finally set his eyes on Shu Jinghao's face, "If the little girl comes out, um... 20!"

Shu Jing was a little confused: Li Ding'an just said that it was only worth about [-] yuan?
After thinking about it for a while, she understood: If Li Ding'an wasn't there, she probably wouldn't be able to sell it for [-] yuan...

Shu Jing could think of it, so naturally Li Ding'an could think of it too.

What should I do, don't tell me I won't sell it?
He thought for a while: "Sell it!"

"Thank you..." Shu Jinghao took out her phone and smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Teacher Guan!"

This little girl is quite interesting: Thank you Li Ding'an first?
Guan Dehai scanned the QR code and put the painting aside: "Is there another one? Don't hide it, take it out and have a look."

Are these sharp eyes?
Li Ding'an smiled and put the book on the coffee table.

What... a script?
Still in traditional Chinese characters.

Guan Dehai picked it up and opened it, and the onlookers knew that it was "Three Heroes and Five Righteousness" handwritten during the Republic of China.

Regular lowercase letters with hairpin flowers, let's look at the reservation: Ye Jing?
It seems that I have never heard of...

It must be a good thing that Li Ding'an can hide so tightly, so Guan Dehai read it very seriously, almost flipping through it page by page, including the illustrations.

But after flipping through the entire book, more than 100 pages, he didn't see anything worthy of Li Ding'an's attention.

The writing is okay, and the painting... is also okay, but the painting is a bit sloppy.

He thought about it after reading it, and he really didn't have any impression of this "Ye Jing", so he was going to ask Li Ding'an.

Just as he was about to speak, the person next to him stretched out his hand: "Teacher Guan, can you let me have a look?"

"Oh... I'm sorry, Mr. Liu..." Guan Dehai smiled apologetically, passed the book over, and introduced it to Li Ding'an, "This is Researcher Liu from the Academy of Cultural Heritage, and also an expert in calligraphy and painting..."

Cultural relics hospital?
The full name should be "China Cultural Heritage Research Institute", formerly known as "Relic Research Institute", which is directly under the Bureau of Cultural Heritage.

The last project that was rated as "Annual New Archaeological Discovery" was developed by them, so they often listened to teachers from the National Expo and the Forbidden City these two days.

The two said hello again without saying a word, Liu Jingcheng just nodded and concentrated on reading the book... oh no, the illustrations.

After taking a glance, Li Ding'an understood that a professional is indeed a professional. To be honest, this person's appreciation level may be slightly higher than Guan Dehai's.

Don't look at Guan Dehai is still thinking hard, but his eyes are full of confusion...

After reading it for almost 10 minutes, he raised his head as if nothing had happened, and smiled: "Xiao Li, you can't get out of this book!"

Li Dingan nodded affirmatively: "Go!"

"how much is it?"

Li Dingan thought for a while: "20!"

20?
The onlookers were very puzzled.

Although it is a handwritten copy of the late Qing Dynasty, it is not handwritten by a famous artist, and it is worth a lot of money.

But this guy opened his mouth for 20?

Liu Jingcheng was ecstatic: only 20?

Too cheap……

He thought about making another bargain, but before he could say anything, Li Dingan spit out a few more words with a smile: "20 per page!"

20, are you crazy?

This book has 3000 to [-] pages at least, is it worth more than [-] million?
Shu Jinghao's eyes also widened: He just said before that it was worth two or three million yuan, but in the blink of an eye, it has more than doubled?
Liu Jingcheng's heart skipped a beat: How dare you ask for 20 for one page?
So, he's not talking about the pages, but about the illustrations.In short, this young man knows the mystery...

He thought for a while, adjusted his glasses: "You know?"

"Know!"

"where?"

"here……"

Li Dingan opened the cover and pointed to the first illustration, "Although it is in italics, it is clearly an imitation of the Wei stele. According to historical records, he was indeed practicing Wei stele hard during this period. And this painting...is it very simple, or very scribbled... His later writing is all in this style..."

"Haha... have you lost your eye?"

Liu Jingcheng laughed suddenly, stood up again, and solemnly extended his right hand, "Ashamed, Liu Jingcheng!"

Li Ding'an smiled and stood up too: "Mr. Liu, you are welcome, Li Ding'an!"

But I couldn't help feeling in my heart: educated people are really different!
Seeing that the big leak was not found, this one was not disappointed at all.Still call it wrong, ashamed?
Changing to Ren Zhirong and Hong Kong's Fatty Qu, I'm already impatient...

The people around were a little confused: What kind of riddle are these two playing?
And why is Teacher Liu so formal, and suddenly respects this young man so much?

No matter how slow the reaction is, people have thought about it: Is it really... a page worth 20?

Guan Dehai lifted his spirits, picked up the magnifying glass, and covered his head to read again.

When I was young, I imitated Wei Bei... Looking at the time again, it was the 24th year of Guangxu.

The later writing is very simple and scribbled, which means... the main cursive script?
Look at the location again: Shangzhou...

At that time, the calligraphy masters in Shangzhou were young again, and it seemed that there was only... Yu Youren?

A flash of inspiration flashed, and Guan Dehai suddenly realized: "Yu Youren?"

"What, Yu Youren's manuscript?"

"It's not words... no, it's words, but it refers to the words on the illustrations..."

"Yu Youren also paints?"

"Paintings, but very few, there are only three or four that have been handed down."

"I'll go... But in this book, there seem to be thirty or forty pictures, all of which were drawn by him?"

"Eighty percent... otherwise, why would you say: 20 per page?"

Everyone turned their heads in unison, first looked at Li Ding'an, then at Liu Jingcheng.

The movements of the two were surprisingly consistent: nodding.

"Hiss..." There was a sound of gasping all around.

Surprised that Yu Youren, who has so few paintings handed down to the world, still has dozens of works left in the world?

There are more than 30 pictures, which can be repackaged into a picture album. If it is put up for auction, it will be 800 million easily.

What's even more surprising is that this young man is only in his early twenties, and his eyesight is so poisonous?

At least, a little higher than Guan Dehai, right?

You must know that Guan Dehai is not some unknown person, but someone who has been on the treasure appraisal column of Beijing TV...

Thinking about it the other way around, the phrase "rising star" that Guan Dehai said earlier was not a flattery?
"Young and promising!" Liu Jingcheng sighed, "Haven't asked for advice yet?"

"Ms. Liu, you're welcome!" Li Ding'an smiled shyly, "I'm still studying at Peking University, my teacher is Professor Wu Xiangwu, and I'm studying 'Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Archeology'...Of course, there are also courses on antique appreciation!"

After a short pause, he continued: "However, I studied modern history in college, so it's luck to recognize this thing: it all depends on my good history..."

The crowd fell.

According to this statement, with so many double-first-class colleges and universities in Beijing, are the professors of the School of History all masters of appraising treasures?
Not so nonsense...

Netizens are also shocked: I believe your ghost...

"So it's Professor Wu's senior student? But this is the first time I've heard you say this..." Liu Jingcheng smiled and said, "Of course, I don't have that much money, so I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, Mr. Liu, I'll ask again..."

Before he finished speaking, Guan Dehai pressed the book: "Don't... 800 million, I'll take it..."

Is this Yu Youren's painting?

It is definitely not as valuable as his words, but the problem is...it is so little!

What the antique industry pays attention to is "rare things are more expensive", no matter whether it is his youth, middle age, or old age, as long as it is a famous master, as long as there are few works handed down from generation to generation, the price will never be low.

So, 800 million absolute value...

Li Ding'an didn't hesitate, and nodded with a smile: "Yes!"

600 yuan... 800 million, how many times the profit is this?

Shu Jing felt that her brain was about to crash.

Not far away, the girl's eyes were shining, she kept clicking the mouse, and then looked at the computer screen: good guy, there are seven or eight surveillance cameras, all of which are taking pictures of Li Ding'an.

Front, side, top, back of the head...every angle, every direction...
