Text Chapter 184 A great favor

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Liu Yuqing drove back and didn't mention it. Liu Yuanshan was still wondering. In recent years, there have been only a handful of calligraphy and painting works with an auction price of over 100 million, but it is not impossible.  But if the price is four to five billion, it is really an extremely rare product.

    If Zhou Xia really used these two paintings and calligraphy works as collateral, the value should not be lower than the amount he offered.

    Liu Yuanshan then thought of another problem. In this case, it was not like the Liu family was helping Zhou Xia in times of need.  Instead, Zhou Xia gave the Liu family another huge favor.

    For a moment, Liu Yuanshan sighed softly, and his emotions were very complicated.

    The auction business is all about connections. Everyone wants high-quality goods, but if you don¡¯t have connections and don¡¯t have enough favors, it¡¯s really difficult to get good things from collectors to your own auction.  .

    If everyone could be as generous as Zhou Xia and put out good things like a big sale, then every auction company would be laughing.

    Liu Yuanshan looked at the beautiful porcelain pieces at hand again, and this feeling became more profound.

    After a while, Liu Yuqing returned home and rushed straight to Liu Yuanshan's study.

    Liu Yuanshan was not in a hurry to look at the paintings at this moment, but asked her first, "When Zhou Xia brought these two paintings out, did she make any requests?"

    Liu Yuqing explained with a smile, "He did have some requirements, because the origin of these two paintings and calligraphy was unclear to him, and they were probably unearthed recently. He hoped that we could keep it a secret and not make it known to everyone in the short term. It was going to be auctioned.  If so, we have to find another way to find out the source. And we can¡¯t reveal his information.¡±

    Liu Yuanshan smiled and said, "This is easy to handle. It is also necessary. Does he have any other requirements?"

    "That's not true. Grandpa, aren't you curious about what these two works are?" Liu Yuqing replied, and raised the box he just brought in.

    "You will know after you see it! If you want to say that Zhou Xia is really powerful this time, Yuqing, you are not young anymore, there are some things you should consider." Liu Yuanshan nodded.  His evaluation of Zhou Xia was even higher.  It's not because he thinks Zhou Xia doesn't ask for anything in return, but because he thinks Zhou Xia is smarter, unlike some people who get carried away once they achieve something, without knowing whether to live or die.

    "Grandpa, look what you said, I still want to spend more time at home with your old man!" Liu Yuqing's face rarely turned red.  "Let's take a look at these two paintings first!"

    Liu Yuanshan laughed, his family was worried about Liu Yuqing¡¯s lifelong events, but Liu Yuqing was a very independent person and had a picky eye.  Even Zhou Nanming, who was a close friend of the Liu family, was in pretty good condition in all aspects.  It's also difficult to catch her eye.  With the current situation of the Liu family, there is no need to wrong the daughter of the family to enter into a marriage for profit or something like that. It is left to Liu Yuqing to do it on her own. She may even strive for a higher position in the auction company.  They all agreed.  It's just that she is twenty-six years old.  Everyone still hopes that she can find the person she likes as soon as possible. Not only starting a family, but also talking about love can make them feel at ease. To say that she is not worried about her personal problems at all is definitely a lie.

    It¡¯s summer this week!  Although he was born in a grassroots way, his handling of people revealed a sense of greatness, and his talents were even more amazing.  Liu Yuanshan felt that if he could be accepted as his grandson-in-law, it would be a good choice.

    Of course, he also respects Liu Yuqing's own opinions. If she doesn't have feelings for him, she can't force it.

    At the moment, what Liu Yuanshan wants to know most is the quality of the two calligraphy and painting works that Zhou Xia found this time.  Zhou Xia's previous performance was remarkable. Even a sophisticated person like Liu Yuanshan, who was used to seeing scenes, could give him a thumbs up.

    The two boxes Liu Yuqing took home were one large and one small. You don¡¯t need to think about it to know that the calligraphy and painting works in them are also one large and one small.

    Liu Yuanshan chose to look at the small box first. The biggest surprise should always be left for the last.

    At this moment, he didn't pay much attention to Liu Yuqing's slightly shy expression, and focused all his energy on the brocade box.

    Liu Yuanshan is a master of appraisal, and he enters the state very quickly. He put on his gloves and carefully took out the silk inside.  The first impression this gave him was quite good. The reason was that the material of the silk was undoubtedly very old.

    Speaking of the secrets of identification, Liu Yuanshan could not finish talking about it for three days and three nights.  But some things must be accumulated with time and experience, especially in the antiques and cultural relics industry. Only by being well-informed can you become a true master.

    Take the silk in front of you as an example!

    It is not at the level that modern new products can achieve. It has extremely strong characteristics of the times, that is, it is monofilament silk.

    Liu Yuanshan is an expert in appraisal. Before he opened the painting, he deduced from the material of the silk that this painting was most likely a work from the Tang Dynasty or before the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

    From silkIn terms of material, it is a very important factor in identifying calligraphy and painting works. It can sometimes be used as a basis for dating, although it cannot be the only basis.

    Single silk silk like the one in front of you has appeared in calligraphy and painting works of the Sui and Tang Dynasties and before.  Before that, there had never been a work with double silk.  For example, the silk used in "Spring Outing" by Zhan Ziqian in the Sui Dynasty is made of single silk; in the "Ladies Waving Fan" volume by Zhou Hao in the Tang Dynasty, the warp and weft threads used are not one, but are all woven from several threads.  Yes, this weaving method is relatively rare on silk for calligraphy and painting.  It shows that the silk used for calligraphy and painting before the Jin and Tang Dynasties was woven from monofilament.  Until now, in calligraphy and painting before Jin and Tang Dynasties, double silk silk has never been seen.

    After the Five Dynasties and the Song Dynasty, with the advancement of silk paper production technology, some changes occurred. In addition to single silk silk, double silk silk also appeared.

    Every two threads of the warp threads of this kind of double silk silk are in one group, and there is a gap of one thread between each two groups. The weft threads are single threads. When the weft threads and warp threads are intertwined, one thread in each group of warp threads sinks underneath.  , another thread floats on top.  For example, Huang Quan's "Sketches of Rare Birds from Life" of the Five Dynasties has forty-eight double threads of warp and single threads of weft; the scroll of Zhao Ji's "Xianglong Stone Picture" of the Song Dynasty has forty-eight double threads of warp and single threads of weft.

    In the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and even in different periods, the characteristics of silk paper were also different. If you really talk about it, you can write a book.

    " Moreover, when Liu Yuanshan looked at the monofilament silk, it did not look like the monofilament silk from any era after the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, he subconsciously felt that this painting was very likely to be a work from the Tang Dynasty or before.

    If we are more specific, we need to conduct a more in-depth appraisal of the monofilament silk.  Of course, the most important thing is what is on the silk paper.  (To be continued.
