Pick up treasure

Yue Xiaoguan knew that the relationship between Wang Ding and Jin Long was unusual.If it were someone else, Yue Xiaoguan would definitely call out a high price.

But now everyone knows that this is just a landscape painting painted by an unknown painter in the Qing Dynasty. It is not good for anyone to say that the price is too high.

"Brother Wang Ding, heck, this painting is just like this. If it doesn't work, just look at it. In my brother's village, it took a lot of effort to make such a thing."

Yue Xiaoguan wanted to say that this thing was obtained by shoveling land. As the name suggests, shoveling land took a lot of trouble and also took a small risk.After all, things that are underground, if the country knows about them, they all belong to the country.The country doesn't know, only Yue Xiaoguan and his elder brother can get it.

Wang Ding looked at Yue Xiaoguan with a smile on his face, and he weighed the value of this painting in his heart.

Master Yu Ji's landscape paintings are rarely handed down to the world, and there are probably tens of thousands of them like the current one.Now Jin Long brother can't see the mystery in this painting, so naturally he can share half with Yue Xiaoguan regardless of the price of tens of thousands.

"Yue Xiaoguan, the money I carry with me now totals 2000 yuan, and I gave it all to you."

"what?"

Yue Xiaoguan was surprised, but Wang Ding didn't know whether Yue Xiaoguan felt that he gave too little or too much.But Wang Ding didn't finish telling the truth.

"Brother Jinlong, I'll lend you another 3000 yuan. I bought Xiaoguan's landscape painting for a total of 5000 yuan. I think you can make a small profit of 2000 yuan in addition to the cost of getting this painting."

What Wang Ding said, Jin Long thought he was crazy.On the sidelines, he winked at Wang Ding vigorously, but there were some things that Jin Long couldn't say in front of Yue Xiaoguan.

Yue Xiaoguan naturally understood that it was Jin Long's hint to Wang Ding.It's embarrassing to be Yue Xiaoguan now.Gritting his teeth, Yue Xiaoguan wanted to say something, but Wang Ding stopped him directly.

"Brother, if 5000 yuan is still not enough for you, can I add more to you?"

"No, no, enough is enough, 5000 yuan is definitely enough."

Yue Xiaoguan nodded repeatedly, but Wang Ding didn't say anything.In fact, Wang Ding doesn't know how good the relationship between Yue Xiaoguan and Jinlong is, or what kind of people Yue Xiaoguan is like. When dealing with him for the first time, he always has to be a little cautious.

5000 yuan, since Yue Xiaoguan is satisfied with the purchase, there is no other way to say it.If he thinks it is less, he can add more money by himself.

Yue Xiaoguan originally wanted to sleep at Jinlong's house, but after Wang Ding bought the landscape painting for 5000 yuan, the three of them felt awkward.

In order not to embarrass everyone, Yue Xiaoguan sold the calligraphy and painting and left with 5000 yuan. When only Wang Ding and Jin Long were left in the room, Jin Long glared at Wang Ding viciously, his cheeks flushed with anger.

"Wang Ding, are you stupid? Obviously this landscape painting is not worth so much money, you are just throwing money away."

"Hey." Jin Long reprimanded Wang Ding, who was just giggling.

Jin Long shook his head speechlessly, "Okay, this is the end of the matter, there is no other way, you don't want to pay back the three thousand that you borrowed from me. Although this painting is worthless, if you ask someone to sell it for one or two thousand, it's still worth it." If someone wants it, you don’t lose anything, so just leave it to me.”

Jin Long thought of himself as being taken advantage of, and wanted to push himself down to redeem Wang Ding, but Wang Ding didn't care about Jin Long's words at all, and instead laughed even more violently.

"I said, are you really stupid? I'm talking about you here, can you still laugh? And that Yue Xiaoguan, 5000 yuan is so hot, he really dares to take it. This person is really not good."

"Huh." Wang Ding opened his mouth and pushed his hand to stop it. Wang Ding seemed dissatisfied with Jin Long's words. "Brother Jin, to be honest, if Yue Xiaoguan didn't want the 5000 yuan just now, maybe he would have earned more. However, if he wants it, he may lose more."

"What, what are you talking about?"

"Brother Jin, you don't understand what I'm saying, right? Then I'll tell you slowly." Wang Ding got up from the sofa, and followed the calligraphy and painting twice.

"Brother Jin, I heard a word when I was in school. It is called Jiehua. It seems to mean a picture-in-picture. I wonder if Brother Jin has heard of it?"

"Exposing the painting?"

Jin Long nodded, "I've heard of it, but why are you asking this?"

"Of course I'm asking you because it's useful. This painting..." Wang Ding smiled and pointed to the landscape painting on the table, and Jin Long frowned in disbelief for a moment.

"You mean, this painting is a painting?"

Jin Long knew that exposing the painting was actually to mount another layer of drawing paper on top of the painting. Through this method, the painting on top was used to cover up the calligraphy and painting below.At the beginning, Jiehua only explained an action, but over time, people called this kind of calligraphy and painting that needs to be uncovered as Jiehua.

Wang Ding mentioned Jinlong's interest, but he himself was vague. "I guessed it might be, so I was willing to spend 5000 yuan to buy this painting. In fact, I was gambling again. But if I win the bet, maybe the next one is a priceless masterpiece. You know, revealing the painting Generally, another painting is added to cover up the authenticity. The purpose is to prevent others from easily seeing the authenticity.”

"Are you betting?"

Hearing that Wang Ding bet 5000 yuan on this painting, Jin Long's back was sweating again, wondering why this young man was so stupid.Jin Long couldn't change the situation for a while, so he had to wait and see the landscape painting.

There can be several layers of Jiehua, and the most popular Jiehua in folklore has been revealed with seven layers, and each layer is a different painting.Of course, it is quite difficult to do the painting on the seventh floor.Because every painting has to be mounted without showing any traces, the difficulty will naturally increase with each additional layer.

When Jinlong took a serious look at the calligraphy and painting, he took out a magnifying glass and pushed it towards the layer of the calligraphy and painting. As expected, there was a layer of rice paper under the scroll on the first layer. Deliberation, certainly can not be found.

"It's Jiehua, you bet on it. Come on, bring some water."

Jinlong knew that to uncover the painting, one needs to spray some water on the surface, spray the picture evenly, wait for the water to soak into the surface of the painting, use tweezers and other tools to remove the outer drawing paper, and then the painting below will appear.Instructing Wang Ding to fetch water, Wang Ding hurried to the kitchen to scoop up a ladle of clean water.

I saw that Jinlong sprayed the water finely and evenly on the painting, and then waited for a minute to see that the water soaked into the surface of the painting. Jinlong then used the tweezers he had prepared earlier to remove the outer layer of drawing paper.

"This is Yu Ji's work."

Jin Long was dumbfounded. Seeing the painting below, the name of master Yu Ji was written on the inscription, Jin Long repeatedly gave Wang Ding a thumbs up.

"Good job, you've made a fortune this time! Yu Ji's landscape paintings are rarely handed down from generation to generation. I remember his works sold for a high price of 40 yuan, which is enough for your down payment to buy a house in Gancheng."

"Really? Brother Jinlong, are you sure it's Master Yu Ji's work?" Wang Ding was actually not sure just now, and no one can dare to judge the authenticity just because of a signature.

"Well...let me take a good look."

Jin Long restrained his agitation, and at this moment carefully appraised the calligraphy and painting again.

Yu Ji was a painter in the Qing Dynasty. He was good at painting landscapes.Therefore, it is difficult for ordinary people to imitate the authentic works of Master Yu Ji, but you can actually see the general idea when the golden dragon enters the eyes.

Of course, Jin Long still needs to study if he wants to see if it is genuine.
