Chapter 1375 Poor Scholar

Li Yujiao discovered that each painting had a personal seal the size of a fingernail.

Although she is also an intellectual, she can read traditional Chinese characters very well, but she can't understand the seal characters on this kind of seal.

But it is not difficult to distinguish, the seal on each painting is exactly the same.

"Shopkeeper, help me find out, what are these two words?" Li Yujiao asked.

The shopkeeper glanced at it: "Liu Fang."

"Who is he?"

The shopkeeper shook his head: "I don't know about that. He has never been to my place. Every time, Miss Fang brings over the paintings for consignment."

"This man..." Li Yujiao frowned and called Fang.In modern times, nine out of ten people named Fang were women, but in ancient times it was not certain, "Is it a man or a woman?"

"The man is a scholar, I don't know anything else."

Li Yujiao nodded, and then asked, "What kind of paintings does Miss Fang usually buy?"

"Well, well, it doesn't matter what kind it is, but it's all Linshan Layman's paintings."

"Linshan Layman? Who is it?"

"He is a very famous calligrapher and painter. Everyone in this circle knows it. It is normal for Mr. Wu Zuo not to know."

As soon as the shopkeeper mentioned this Linshan Layman, he had a look of joy and pride, "Linshan Layman's paintings are only sold in my shop, it is really thanks to him, because his business is much better than other colleagues. .”

"Can you take me to see the paintings of this Linshan layman?"

"It's a coincidence that you came here. I just sent a painting today. Layman Linshan's paintings are very popular. Usually they will be sold the next day after they come out. Come on, the painting is in front, and I will show you."

The shopkeeper said so, and took Li Yujiao to the front shop.

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I haven't had time to frame it yet."

After speaking, he took out the painting and spread it on the table.

The picture scroll slowly unfolded, and Li Yujiao saw that it was a portrait, although it was a freehand style, it was completely different from sketches and oil paintings.

But even a layman like her can see that the painting is very vivid, and the painting is really good.

Especially at this time, most of the portraits are roughly sketched in a few strokes, and it seems that there are not many people who have sketched the costumes of the characters in the painting like Lay Linshan.

Especially this red dress, which is as gorgeous as a raging fire, and even a small fold is handled very delicately.

"Sure enough, it's a good painting. I think I've seen a painting of Linshan Layman in Miss Fang's room. It seems to be a woman in red."

"The Linshan Layman is so red." The shopkeeper immediately explained when Li Yujiao mentioned the painting.

"I see." Li Yujiao had finished asking, and said goodbye to the shopkeeper, "I'm bothering the shopkeeper today, thank you for your cooperation, I will come over to buy some books someday."

"It's easy to talk, I'll see you off."

Li Yujiao came out of the bookstore and rushed to the Yamen without stopping.

When she went back, Lu Zhengren was already in the arrest room.

"Catcher Lu is so fast?" Li Yujiao stepped forward in two steps, and went straight in, "How is it? Did you ask the scholar?"

"Well, it's a scholar named Liu Fang."

"Liu Fang?" Li Yujiao smiled, "I see."

"What's the matter? Did you find anything?" Lu Zheng hurriedly asked Li Yujiao.

Li Yujiao nodded: "I found that Ms. Fang would often deposit Liu Fang's paintings in that bookstore to sell."

"There is only one widowed mother in Liu Fang's family, and he has to take medicine all year round. He is still preparing for the next scientific examination, and the family has no savings. It seems that it is not surprising that he makes a living by selling calligraphy and painting, but why does he sell it through a woman? ?”
