Chapter 668 Could it be?

"This is quite messy." Yu Yao listened, and tapped his temple unconsciously.

He didn't ask Cai Chihuang why he didn't want to make the deal.Cai Chihuang may have many faults, but one thing is that he really doesn't want the good things from China to flow out, even though he has studied in Japan.

Of course, if this painting is seen by people who don't know the "insider information", it may not be a good thing.

Yu Yao didn't ask, but Cai Chihuang explained, "I introduced them to each other. Once I visited this jeweler's house with Fu Mancang, and this painting was hung in his study. I was very interested, and later asked me to ask the price. I thought that the things hanging in the study would not be sold, but I did not expect them to be sold."

"Bought from Japan?" Yu Yao's mind wandered, he got up suddenly, took out his mobile phone, and went to take a photo.

Cai Chihuang followed up, "What? What's so special about this painting?"

"The most important thing is that I am curious about who painted it." Yu Yao replied.Although it is faintly felt that it might be He Shangshan's work when he was young, Yu Yao is indeed not completely sure.

Cai Chi Huang pondered for a while, and didn't ask any more questions.

At noon that day, the three of them had a simple lunch. Yu Yao said that he was a little tired, and that there would be no celadon cups on display today, so he wanted to take a rest in the afternoon.Cai Chihuang looked at him and Shen Ge, and smiled meaningfully.

Back at the hotel, Shen Ge also said to take a good rest in the afternoon, and asked Yu Yao to accompany her to go shopping in the evening, and the two went back to their rooms.

Yu Yao sat down in the room, lit a cigarette, thought about it, and called Shangguan Yu.

"I was just about to call you!" Shangguan Yu was not surprised. The exhibition at the Langoni Art Center happened to be held today.

"Then you speak first."

"As expected, "Sihao Playing Chess Picture" won't reach Tang."

Yu Yao nodded, "According to what you mean, the imitation is not bad?"

"How should I put it..." Shangguan Yu pondered for a while, "I just rely on my feeling. I'm afraid that such a thing can also be listed in the Garde Spring Auction where you are."

"The old technology seems to be in place."

"Pretty good."

"Understood." Yu Yao turned and said, "I haven't seen any porcelain that is suspected of being a counterfeit group in the spring auction, and the celadon table cup is not on display today."

"Well. The counterfeiting group is not our focus." Shangguan Yu said again, "Oda Shichiro and I watched "Sihao Playing Chess Picture" together, and he praised a few words."

Yu Yao smiled, "It's not normal to have a bland reaction, it's too much to praise, a few simple words of praise are the most natural."

"Yes. By the way, what else do you need?"

"I found another painting at the preview of the spring auction. I'll send it to you and you can have a look first."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Yu Yao sent the picture of "Three Gorges" and waited for Shangguan Yu to call back.

Shangguan Yu replied quickly, only 5 minutes.

"This is the work of He Shangshan Zhangyan! But it seems to be an early work, not yet mature." Shangguan Yu said with certainty.

"So sure? Could it be that you have seen it?"

"No. But the old man also painted a picture of the Three Gorges, Chaoci Baidi Cai Yunjian, which is also the perspective from the east of Baidi City, but after the painting was completed, it was torn off." Shangguanyu introduced, "He said, he didn't go On the ground, no matter how good the brushwork is, it can't paint the feeling of my father back then."

Yu Yao nodded, "The old man should have seen this painting before."

"Sounds like it should be, but he didn't say much at the time. I was young and didn't take it seriously."

Yu Yao pondered, "He didn't say anything special about this painting either? Just one pen and ink on a piece of paper has different meanings, so he should pay attention to it."

"Well, I saw the picture you sent, and I think so too. You should see the real thing, it should be clearer. But, the old man really didn't say this at the time." Shangguan Yu paused, "However, I just saw your post Come to the picture, I have a little different idea about this special place."

"Oh? Say it."

"This was not drawn by one person!"

Yu Yao couldn't help being startled, "No, although the meaning of the painting is different, I still feel that it was written by one person."

Shangguan Yu cleared his throat, "Let me put it another way, when He Zhangyan was painting, he shouldn't be alone!"

Yu Yao interjected, "You mean, although one person wrote the pen, there was someone beside him giving pointers? This...combined with the fact that the technique of this painting is not yet mature, and the meaning of the painting is different but not abrupt. So, this guidance The person who is here may be both a teacher and a friend..."

"That's what it means." Shangguan Yu nodded, "The meaning of the painting is different. It may be that He Zhangyan's thoughts have changed between the brush and ink of a painting! This change is the effect of the person around him!"

"If this person can teach He Shangshan in painting, he could be called a master of Chinese painting during the Republic of China!"

"uncertain."

"uncertain?"

"Being able to give advice and drawing by yourself are two different things. For example, if I draw a picture, you can give me advice on its advantages and disadvantages, but if I want you to draw it, you must not be as good at it as I am!"

Yu Yao laughed, "That's right, I forgot about it, a gourmet is not necessarily a good cook."

"There is one more point worth exploring." Shangguan Yu continued, "If the old man has seen this painting, then He Zhangyan must have brought it to the United States. How could it have come to Japan again?"

Yu Yao thought for a while, "I remember you said, why is it because of a woman..."

"Yes!" Shangguan Yu said immediately, "I happened to be in the United States, so I immediately tried to find a way to check this woman, and I might find something from Oda Qiro."

"I didn't check it earlier, you're quite energetic now." Yu Yao joked casually.

"Isn't it all in inches? I always feel that there are a lot of things involved in this painting."

"Unfortunately, it is He Zhangyan's work when he was young, otherwise, maybe it can be related to the starry sky map." Yu Yao replied, "Okay, I will also investigate and see how this painting from the Wa country came about."

Shangguan Yu was silent for a few seconds before saying, "The map of the starry sky reflects the time, and the map of the Three Gorges reflects the location. Even if it is a work of youth, it may not be unrelated... The key is to check the results... "..."

After hearing this, a flash of light suddenly flashed in Yu Yao's mind, "The key? The most important thing is probably the person who taught He Zhangyan back then..."

Shangguan Yu was suddenly sparked by Yu Yao's words, "Could it be?"

"Could it be?" Yu Yao also had a spark, and repeated.

"Big Palm Eyes!" The two said in unison.

Each is silent.

"I'll take it easy and continue talking later." Yu Yao hung up the phone and lit a cigarette. Various situations he had grasped before came one after another, forming a vortex in his mind.

This vortex naturally has a center.
