Chapter 347 Opening up a new career! ! !

"Huh? National treasure?"

This time, Zhuang Zhou was also shocked.

I originally thought this was just Yan Liben's inferior painting.

Therefore, it was not passed down to future generations.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yunhe's evaluation was so high.

"Do you know the picture Along the River During the Qingming Festival?"

Zhuang Zhou nodded in response, of course he knew it!

Liu Yunhe smiled and said:

"This is equivalent to the Song Dynasty's version of Along the River During the Qingming Festival. It will play a huge role in studying the architecture, humanities, etc. of the early Tang Dynasty."

Zhuang Zhou doesn't know much about research.

These are matters for experts and scholars.

Zhuang Zhou is more concerned if this thing is designated as a national treasure.

Can you still sell it yourself?

When Zhuang Zhou asked, Liu Yunhe said with a righteous face:

"This is something that benefits the study of human culture. How can you just think about making money?"

"???"

Zhuang Zhou was speechless!

Got it!

It's me who's vulgar!

Zhuang Zhou was speechless by Liu Yunhe's words.

Ultimately, he just wanted to know the value of the painting.

After all, this is his hard-earned treasure.

"Old Liu, let's not talk about cultural research. Based on your many years of experience, how much do you think this painting is worth?"

Zhuang Zhou asked tentatively.

Liu Yunhe pondered for a moment and said:

“It’s hard to say!

After all, this is a national treasure-level cultural relic.

If we really want to estimate it, I'm afraid it would be in hundreds of millions. "

"100 million?"

Nima!

Zhuang Zhou was shocked by this number.

He naturally knew the origin of this painting.

But it won’t be so valuable!

"Yes, billion."

Liu Yunhe nodded affirmatively:

"And this is just a conservative estimate. If it really goes to an auction like Christie's, the price may be even higher."

After hearing this, Zhuang Zhou couldn't help but feel a little excited.

If he could really sell this painting, his net worth would probably skyrocket.

Seemingly reading Zhuang Zhou's thoughts, Liu Yunhe added:

"But Xiaozhuang, such a national treasure-level cultural relic cannot be taken care of casually. It might cause trouble."

Zhuang Zhou pretended to calmly hum and asked again:

"Then Lao Liu, what do you think I should do with this painting?"

Liu Yunhe thought for a moment and then said:

"I think you should first find a professional cultural relic appraisal agency for appraisal to determine the authenticity and value of this painting."

Zhuang Zhou nodded, feeling that Liu Yunhe's suggestion made sense.

"Okay! Do you know any professional appraisal agency here?"

"Yes, I have!"

Liu Yunhe affirmed:

"I know an expert in this field at the Kyoto Museum who can help with an appraisal, but I have to go to Kyoto once."

"Yes, I also know someone in the Kyoto Museum."

"Oh, who?"

"Pan Zhensong!"

"What? Do you know Pan Zhensong?"

"Ah, he is my uncle."

This is obviously Meng Xuan's uncle.

Zhuang Zhou said it smoothly.

"Pan Zhensong is your uncle?"

Liu Yunhe looked shocked, then laughed loudly:

"I didn't expect it! This circle is too small!"

"What? Do you know Pan Zhensong too?"

"Of course! He is my college classmate."

Ok!

This circle is really small enough.

After some small talk, Zhuang Zhou decided to fly to Kyoto again a year ago to determine the value of the painting as soon as possible.

However, because of the previous painting by Yuchi Yiseng, Zhuang Zhou was confident that the value of this painting would definitely be high.

If the Kyoto Museum needs to acquire it, it may consider selling it, which can be considered a contribution to cultural research.

"By the way, Lao Liu, I have another piece of calligraphy here, what do you think of it?"

After Zhuang Zhou finished speaking, Liu Yunhe looked excited again.

"Bring it to me quickly!"

Zhuang Zhou opened the bag and took out the calligraphy inscribed by Mr. Ouyang Xun.

These are two poems Ouyang Xun wrote for Zhuang Zhou after he drank three glasses of white wine in a row:

"I was born to be useful, and I will come back after the money is gone."

Liu Yunhe looked at it carefully, and his expression became solemn again.

The whole person's eyes were fixed on him, as if he was in a trance.

One hand was holding his glasses from time to time.

He really looks like an old scholar.

Zhuang Zhou sat aside and said nothing.

Liu Yunhe's expression gradually changed.

After a long time, I heard him exhale heavily:

"This word is quite interesting!"

Zhuang Zhou smiled slightly and asked:

"Tell me, why is it so interesting?"

Liu Yunhe put down the banner and thought for a moment.

Then he slowly spoke:

“Although this character looks new, it is really well written.

Come and see!

This streamline can be said to be like a pen moving like a dragon and a snake, and flowing clouds and flowing water.

Such superb calligraphy art is really rare.

I dare say that there are no more than five fingers of masters in China who can achieve this kind of calligraphy skills. "

Zhuang Zhou wanted to laugh in his heart, and all five of them were probably overestimating it.

The calligraphy skills of modern people are definitely not comparable to that of Ouyang Xun!

But naturally he couldn't say this, so he thought about it and asked again:

"Then how much is this calligraphy worth?"

Liu Yunhe finally couldn't help but roll his eyes:

"Xiao Zhuang, don't always think about money when you're doing this for fun!

This calligraphy is the unique cultural confidence of our nation, and no amount of money can measure it. "

Zhuang Zhou hurriedly shouted, looking very pious:

"Yes, yes, look at me, it's vulgar, isn't it... But I still want to know, how much is this calligraphy worth?"

"..."

Got it!

You are so persistent!

Liu Yunhe pondered for a moment, and then gave an answer:

"At this level of cursive writing, an expert can tell at a glance that it is copying Ouyang Xun's strokes.

If you ask me, one word is worth at least 8,000 yuan, and it is estimated that it can be sold for about 120,000 yuan. "

Eight thousand yuan per word?

After hearing this, Zhuang Zhou secretly rejoiced.

Although this number is much less than that of the painting.

But for him, the price is not low either.

After all, Ouyang Xun wrote this in a flash.

Earning 120,000 yuan in a minute is a lot.

It seems that Ouyang Xun's character still has two brushes.

Actually, that's true when you think about it. Nowadays, many celebrities are selling words in live broadcast rooms.

One word is even close to 10,000.

If compared with a big shot like Ouyang Xun, it really pales in comparison.

Liu Yunhe looked at Zhuang Zhou's expression and couldn't help but smile:

"What? Not satisfied with the price?"

Zhuang Zhou shook his head and said with a smile:

"No, I'm satisfied.

Liu Yunhe responded and couldn't help but asked curiously:

"Xiao Zhuang, tell me, where did you get this word?!"

Zhuang Zhou smiled slightly:

"This is my channel!"

After saying that, he picked up the tea cup and drank water without saying anything more.

Liu Yunhe nodded and did not continue to ask any more questions.

Instead, the conversation changed and he said:

"Xiao Zhuang, look at the many calligraphy and paintings on my wall.

As for me, I just like these, and I also like to collect them on weekdays.

To be honest, I really like your copy of Ouyang Xun's calligraphy.

If you have any plans to sell, I can give you a price of 20,000 yuan.

Or can you give me a floating price? "

Zhuang Zhou thought for a moment and said:

"Old Liu, actually I want to keep this word for myself and don't plan to sell it."

"Oh, that's it. That's such a shame."

Liu Yunhe showed a disappointed expression.

"However, Lao Liu, I can leave it here for you to enjoy for a few more days."

Zhuang Zhou thought that Wang Xian's ruler slips were still in Liu Yunhe's place, so he simply showed them to him.

For calligraphy experts like Liu Yunhe.

It is far more stable than putting it in your own hands.

When Liu Yunhe heard this, he immediately became happy:

"That's great!

Xiaozhuang, don't worry, I will take good care of it. "

The two chatted for a while, and then Zhuang Zhou stood up and left.

After leaving Liu Yunhe's office, Zhuang Zhou had another idea in his mind.

It seems that I can also start a calligraphy and painting company.

From then on, he specialized in calligraphy and painting business.

This can be regarded as opening up a new career!

In the early Tang Dynasty, there were many masters of calligraphy, and they brought back whatever they had written and painted.

That can also have a big market.

Not to mention the originals, just the copies can be worth a lot of money.

Especially the copybook of "Lanting Preface".

During the early Tang Dynasty, there was a craze in copying Wang characters.

Yu Shinan, Chu Suiliang, Ouyang Xun and other people copied a large number of Wang's works.

Among them, the one closest to the calligraphy style of the original "Lanting Preface" is Feng Chengsu's Shenlong version.

If I could bring back the copybooks of "Lanting Preface" copied by the big guys, it would probably cause a sensation in the calligraphy world!
