Because he had known that this painting was a copy, Li Yi had been identifying the handwriting on the inscriptions from the beginning, but the result of the identification made him doubt. ΩΩ

Wang Hui has many works of his generation, and he has seen several, so he ruled out the possibility that this was Wang Hui's copy from the beginning. Zou Zhilin has few works of his generation, and he has never seen them, so naturally he has no way to identify them. But strangely, the handwriting on this painting makes him feel a little familiar, and it seems that it should not be Zou Zhilin's handwriting.

Just when he was confused, Tan Moxuan's reminder made him realize that since this version was neither Wang Hui nor Zou Zhilin's, then this doubt about handwriting could be solved.

He confirmed the handwriting on the inscription again, looked at the picture carefully, nodded, and whispered:

"This should be copied by Dong Qichang."

"Dong Qichang?"

Tan Moxuan repeated in a low voice and nodded:

"When you say this, it looks a bit like Dong Qichang's handwriting. Moreover, judging from the inheritance of this original painting, Dong Qichang has indeed collected it."

"Well, after the original work of "Fuchun Mountain Residence" was lost from Shen Zhou, it was successively handed by Fan Shun, Tan Zhiyi, Dong Qichang, Wu Zhengzhi and others, and finally passed to Wu Hongyu..."

Li Yi spoke while opening the spiritual appraisal card. A cool air flashed by, and the spiritual appraisal card gave the identification conclusion. This painting was indeed Dong Qichang's work!

Compared with Zhang Hong, the backbone of the Wumen School of Painting in the late Ming Dynasty, he was about the same age as him. Dong Qichang, an outstanding representative of the "Huating School of Painting", was at least far more famous than him. Normally, the value of this copy should be above Zhang Hong's version. Li Yi knew that he had picked up a treasure again this time.

After putting away the painting, Li Yi took another thick scroll. If he guessed it correctly, this should be the "Yunlan Piaomiao Scroll" signed by Dong Qichang, which is 3 meters long.

This is interesting. If this is also an original work, then a genuine work imitating Huang Gongwang, an original work of his own, and the two paintings are all of the masterpieces. They will be hung together for exhibition at that time, and they should attract many people's attention.

Because I just saw an original work by Dong Qichang, Li Yi quickly confirmed the authenticity of the painting. This painting is also an original work, and in terms of collection value, it is obviously more than that imitation.

Li Yi remembered that there should be a work by Wang Hui in the remaining ancient paintings, and an anonymous but very similar to Li Tang's "The Lotus Pond and Summer Picture" (Picture of Escape from the Lotus Pond) (Picture of Sutra) (Pictures of Episode 2) (Pictures of Episode 2) (Pictures of Vimalakirti) (Pictures of Changes in the Tang Dynasty) (Pictures of Vimalakirti) (Pictures of Changes) (Pictures of the Dunhuang Sutra), which is also a cultural relic that can be called a national treasure...

One, two, three...authorized works, authentic works, imitation works...

Soon, Li Yi finished reading 38 of the total forty calligraphy and paintings, leaving only Wang Hui's work and the anonymous Song painting.

"This "Picture of Visiting Friends in the Mountains" imitating Xu Daoning should be the original work? You see, not only are there Wang Hui's seals, but also the seals of the two authors Shi Guzi themselves, as well as the collection and appreciation seals of Huaiyan Pavilion at 6 o'clock. They should also be included in the "Records of Calligraphy and Paintings Seen by Wu Yue"?"

Tan Moxuan also has a certain appreciation ability for calligraphy and painting, especially in recent years, the value of works by the Qing Dynasty painters, who were Wang Hui, has been rising steadily. Not only did his own "Tang Poetry Pictures" cost a sky-high price of 126.5 million, but even his works by Yun Shouping, Wang Shimin and others have repeatedly set new highs. Among them, Wang Shimin's "Imitation of Landscapes of Various Families" recently also cost 121 million yuan, which is no less expensive.

The popularity of the market will naturally attract the attention of appraisers. Although Tan Moxuan focuses on jade miscellaneous items, he has also put in some effort in ancient calligraphy and painting due to the nature of the work of the pawn shop.

"The pen is as powerful as Jingguan, and the white and green books are always free. Yang Tanqi Xishu has not been approved, and the paintings are divided into old streams and mountains. In the autumn of Bingchen, it is imitated by Xu Daoning. Haiyu Shiguzi Wang Hui."

Li Yi slowly read the title on the painting and nodded. Yes, this painting is indeed an authentic work. As for the 6-time "Records of Calligraphy and Paintings Seen by Wu Yue" in 6-time. However, since there is a 6-time appreciation seal, it should be possible to find out its inheritance.

"It's not easy. Although the calligraphy and painting market is a bit messy now, any ancient painting of famous artists who can be confirmed to be authentic works basically starts at tens of millions. This painting should be more than 50,000, right?"

"That's right, although most of the works on Wang Hui were sold at around 50,000 yuan, the time when those works were sold was still a while ago, and secondly, it was because they were indistinguishable from the authenticity. The same is true for Dong Qichang's works. Nowadays, ancient paintings can't be afforded!"

Li Yi sighed, but the value of what he saw so far was beyond his Monet's "Water Lily". But there is also a work suspected to be Li Tang, a Dunhuang Sutra of the Tang Dynasty, and many rare ancient books. Is it necessary to force him to come up with more precious oil paintings just by calligraphy and painting and ancient books?

While he sighed, he opened the Song painting. Although the author of this painting was not determined, it could be judged from the paper that it was definitely a Song painting. Even if it was identified by the time it was not a famous work, its value would definitely not be much inferior to this work of Wang Hui.

"Scrape Iron Cun? Is this the work of the secret door Liu?"

The secret door Liu is nicknamed Liu Songnian, one of the "Four Great Masters of the Southern Song Dynasty". Because he lives in Qingbo Gate in Qiantang, he has the name of Liu Qingbo. Another one of the Qingbo Gate is "disclosed door", so he is nicknamed "disclosed door Liu".

Liu Songnian, Li Tang, Ma Yuan and Xia Gui were collectively known as the "Four Great Masters of the Southern Song Dynasty". Because his paintings were learned from Li Tang, the two of them had similar styles.

However, in landscape painting, Liu Songnian's style is closer to Dong Yuan and Juran. The painting style is clear and rigorous, and the coloring is beautiful and elegant. Because of its many garden and small scenery, it is also called "small scenery landscape".

Li Yi stared at the work for a while and realized that the texture method used by the painter was not like the axe-splitting texture used by Li Tang, but more like Liu Songnian's iron scraping texture. He couldn't help but frown and opened the spiritual card.

Sure enough, this painting is a painting "The Lotus Pond in the West Lake" written by Liu Songnian imitated Li Tang's "The Picture of Eliminating Summer". The composition and brushwork are roughly similar, but the style of painting is softer and more beautiful.

After reading the ancient paintings, the two of them passed all the 32 ancient books brought by Luo Guofu. In addition to the remaining chapter of "Vimalakirti Sutra" from the Tang Dynasty, Li Yi unexpectedly revealed a set of "Yu Shimingyan" engraved by Ling Mengchu, a famous woodblocking calligrapher in the Ming Dynasty. This is another ancient book with great collection value.

In terms of market value, Ming and Song-engraved versions are incomparable, but there are exceptions. One is that it is an early age and has less circulated, and the other is an inner-domestic version, that is, a royal version, or a celebrity.

Although the value of this type of ancient books in Ming Dynasty is still somewhat different from that of Song Dynasty books, the value of the well-preserved fine products is comparable to that of ordinary Song Dynasty books.

In Li Yi's view, this set of Ming engravings of "Yu Shimingyan" is a set of such ancient books, because its engravings Ling Mengchu is not only a famous woodblocking calligrapher, but also a famous writer and scholar in the Ming Dynasty. His works "Chu Ke Paiwen Jing" and "Er Ke Paiwen Jing" and "Yu Shi Mingyan" written by Feng Menglong are collectively called "Sanyan and Erba", and are representative works in Chinese classical short stories.

With this origin in it, the value of this set of Ming-engraved books can be imagined.

"Luoguofu, you are all very good. I want to keep them all, you can offer a price."

“All are pretty good?”

Luo Guofu's eyes rolled twice, and a look of beating appeared on his face.

"Since the boss thinks they are all very good, then it should be okay for me to exchange them for your "Water Lily"?"

Li Yi was stunned. The value of these things was far beyond the value of the "Water Lily". With Luo Guofu's shrewdness, he should not be unaware of this. But even so, he still only asked to exchange a "Water Lily". Is this showing his loyalty to himself?

However, before he could figure it out, Luo Guofu continued:

"Boss, I know that it may be a bit insufficient to exchange your "Water Lily" with these things. But you see, although this "Vimalakirti Sutra" is just a broken article, according to the classification standards of your Chinese cultural relics, it should be at least a first-class cultural relics. There is also this Song painting. Although it is an anonymous work, it is a Song painting. After all, it is a work of nearly a thousand years ago. Its value should be not low, right? There are also these two paintings, one Dong Qichang and the other Wang Hui..."

Seeing Luo Guofu's eagerness to explain, Li Yi understood that this guy didn't really realize the value of these things. But this cannot be blamed for him. The periodicity and authenticity of calligraphy and painting works are difficult to distinguish between the authenticity of calligraphy and painting works. These are him. If he was replaced by other Chinese appraisers, he still didn't know how many of them would be included in the controversial works, let alone him being a complete wrongdoer.

"Okay, you need to say nothing. Since you have liked the Water Lily, then do it like that. But when you go to see François tomorrow, you have to work harder!"

"Boss, don't worry, since you have brought out "Sunset", I can definitely exchange everything you like for you!"

Seeing Luo Guofu slapped his chest, Li Yi shook his head with a smile. This guy didn't know that it was this transaction that not only spit out all the things he had earned from him before, but even returned the commission for tomorrow's transaction in advance.

But he is not a scam, because according to his own understanding, the value of these works is indeed not as valuable as a "Water Lily". So who is not cheaper? (To be continued.)8
