Zhuang Zhou, unemployed at home, unexpectedly obtained a time-space gate that could travel to the Tang Dynasty's Zhenguan era, and could also carry items with him. Thus, Zhuang Zhou embarked on...
According to Tang Youde, the original copy of this calligraphy and painting could buy a villa and still have some left over.
But if it is really sold as an authentic work, it will definitely cause a sensation in the industry.
Of course, Zhuang Zhou doesn't want to be too high-profile.
He just wants to make a fortune quietly!
Just like the Tang blue and white porcelain, it was clearly brought back from Chang'an City by myself.
But it can only be sold as a high-quality imitation.
Including the "Zhang Han Tie" in my hand now, it can only be sold as a copy by an anonymous person in later generations.
Zhuang Zhou searched for information online for a while before he found out.
It turns out that many people in history have copied Ouyang Xun's calligraphy.
Among them was the most tragic emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, Song Huizong Zhao Ji.
However, the works copied by Song Huizong are now collected in the Palace Museum in Kyoto.
Even Emperor Qianlong wrote a poem on it, commenting on it with eight words: "Excellent in capturing the momentum, and full of remaining beauty."
However, there is only a seal on Zhuang Zhou's calligraphy of Ouyang Xun.
Therefore, even if it comes out, it is hard for people to believe that it is the original work of Ouyang Xun.
Moreover, Zhuang Zhou also found information that "Zhang Han Tie" is currently collected in the National Palace Museum in Taiwan.
This is a bit embarrassing!
Therefore, calligraphy works like this are only valuable if they are appreciated by people who truly understand and appreciate them.
After checking the information, Zhuang Zhou prepared to take a shower first.
I didn't have time to take off my clothes.
Ding Dong, WeChat is here.
"Is this Tang blue and white porcelain?"
Huh?
This Old Liu is indeed an expert!
You can tell from just one picture.
Zhuang Zhou replied: "Yes, but it's a high-quality imitation!"
"Where is the stuff now?!"
"In a shop in the Qingshuihe Antique Market."
"How can you just leave such an important thing in an antique shop? What if it gets lost?"
"Huh? I told you they're all high-quality imitations. They wouldn't be worth much if they were lost. Besides, the store hasn't even opened yet, so no one should know about it."
The other party was silent for a while, then replied:
"Well, let's meet at the antique shop tomorrow morning. I want to see the goods in person."
"But I have to leave Qingdu early tomorrow morning for something."
“Is that so?”
Soon, Liu Yunhe sent another message:
"Then I'll have someone come pick up the key tonight, and I'll go check it myself tomorrow morning, okay?"
"Sure! You can take a look at it when the time comes. If you find it useful, you can take it to an exhibition. If you can sell it, we can split the profits according to the contract."
Zhuang Zhou replied, thinking that the two of them were partners in the business.
In the future, we will have to find Liu Yunhe to deal with the channel for this batch of high-quality imitations.
How about asking Lao Liu about the situation of this calligraphy?
There is not much point in keeping this kind of thing in your hands.
Thinking of this, Zhuang Zhou sent another message to Liu Yunhe:
"Old Liu, I found a calligraphy and painting here, and I'd like you to take a look at it."
"What calligraphy and painting?"
Zhuang Zhou: "It seems to be by Ouyang Xun."
“???”
Liu Yunhe was suspicious.
Soon back:
"Are you talking about Ouyang Xun, one of the Four Great Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty?"
"It seems to be this person."
"Oh? Which one?"
Zhuang Zhou sent a voice message this time:
"The first few words are 'Zhang Han, courtesy name Jiying, a native of Wu Commandery, Wu'. Then I looked it up online and it seems to be called 'Zhang Han Tie'."
"Oh, that must also be a copy."
Immediately afterwards, Liu Yunhe also sent a voice message:
"'Zhang Han Tie' is a famous calligraphy work by Ouyang Xun, a great calligrapher of the early Tang Dynasty. The original is housed in the National Palace Museum in Taiwan, but the quality of the copies that have come out varies. Where is your painting?"
"At my house."
Liu Yunhe said, "Take a photo and show it to me first. Some of the copies are quite valuable."
"Oh! Then I'll take a picture and send it to you."
Zhuang Zhou took out "Zhang Han Tie" and took a photo directly.
Then it was sent to Liu Yunhe.
And the text: "This is it."
Then.
10 seconds passed...
30 seconds passed...
One minute passed...
Just wait until two minutes.
Liu Yunhe just sent a voice message:
"Brother Zhuang, does your Zhang Han Tie only have one seal?"
"yes."
"Then take a separate photo of the seal and send it to me. Find a place with good lighting so that you can take a clearer picture."
There was some anxiety in Liu Yunhe's tone.
"Oh, then I'll take another picture for you."
Zhuang Zhou turned on the desk lamp again and took a close-up photo of the seal.
If you look carefully, you should be able to see it clearly.
Then he sent it to Liu Yunhe.
Same.
Another 10 seconds passed...
20 seconds passed...
But this time, I only waited for less than a minute.
Liu Yunhe actually called directly:
"Hey, Lao Liu, what's wrong?"
"Brother Zhuang, where do you live?"
Zhuang Zhou was stunned: "What are you doing?"
"Send me your home address. I need to come over now."
Zhuang Zhou: “???”
"For the Zhang Han Tie?"
"right."
…
Muma Mountain.
In a luxurious villa.
Liu Yunhe was putting on his shoes in a hurry.
"Dad, where are you going so late?"
At this time Liu Mengxuan couldn't help but ask.
"I have to go out urgently now, please call a car for me."
Seeing his father's anxious look, Liu Mengxuan was puzzled:
"Who are you going to see? What happened?"
Liu Yunhe also did not intend to hide it from his daughter:
