I Open a General Store in Early Tang

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...

Chapter 412: The Grass-Cursive Master Zhang Zhi (Happy Dragon Boat Festival)!!!

Zhuang Zhou was even more excited when he heard this.

Gu Kaizhi's paintings have always been famous for their vivid and lively style and perfect combination of form and spirit.

That is a priceless treasure!

"Brother Cheng, your painting is so precious!"

Zhuang Zhou quickly said:

"Can I have a closer look?"

Cheng Yaojin waved his hand generously and said:

"What's this? Just look at it."

Zhuang Zhou was delighted, but appeared calm as he approached the painting and examined it carefully.

As he looked at it, he was thinking about how to ask Cheng Yaojin for the painting.

After all, not just anyone can own such a treasure.

Just as Zhuang Zhou was lost in thought, Cheng Yaojin suddenly asked:

"Brother Zhuang, what do you think of my painting?

Can you see the beauty in that?"

Zhuang Zhou came back to his senses and nodded quickly:

"Brother Cheng's paintings are indeed well-deserved!

The woman in this painting seems alive, and her embroidery skills are lifelike.

It’s truly breathtaking!”

Cheng Yaojin was so delighted when he heard this that he laughed heartily and said:

"Brother Zhuang has really good eyesight!

I went to great lengths to get this painting.

Since you like it so much, I’ll give it to you!”

“???”

Give it to me?

Zhuang Zhou thought he had misheard.

"Brother Cheng, are you really giving it to me?"

Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said:

"Why? You look down on me?"

Zhuang Zhou quickly said:

"Of course not! I like it very much!

"Brother Cheng, are you really willing to give up such a valuable treasure?!"

"What's so precious about them? In my eyes, these calligraphy and paintings are not as important as your friendship, Brother Zhuang.

If you like it, take it!"

As he spoke, he led Zhuang Zhou to look at another calligraphy piece:

"Brother Zhuang, would you like to take another look at this calligraphy?"

First I took a glance.

This word is very familiar.

It seems like I've seen it somewhere.

While appreciating it, Zhuang Zhou couldn't help but comment:

"The strokes of this character are ups and downs, with a distinct sense of rhythm.

At first glance, it actually feels a bit like Wang Xizhi.

Although this calligraphy is not as good as the "Lanting Preface", in my opinion it is not far behind."

“Hahaha~~~”

Cheng Yaojin laughed out loud:

"Good job, Brother Zhuang, you really know what you are talking about!

This is the masterpiece of our palace, the calligraphy masterpiece "Seventeen Posts" by the calligrapher Wang Yizhi.

"What? Is this really Wang Xizhi's calligraphy?"

Zhuang Zhou took a breath of cold air when he heard this.

Wang Yizhi's calligraphy is so valuable that it is hard to come by.

Even if it is a copy, it is priceless.

"Why? You like it?"

"Of course! Brother Cheng, you don't know that my friends in the immortal world love these calligraphy and paintings in the human world."

Zhuang Zhou was just joking.

But who knows.

Then Cheng Yaojin said:

"That's fine! I'll give it all to you!"

this?

Zhuang Zhou was a little confused!

I originally thought that this was some kind of scam!

Who knew that Cheng Yaojin would be so generous to give it to him.

This friendship is really too heavy.

"Brother Zhuang, you're welcome!"

Then Cheng Yaojin laughed and said:

"These are just copies. The originals are still with Your Majesty!"

Zhuang Zhou: “???”
