Yang Xiuwen respected Zhang Li very much. He first bowed and saluted Zhang Li, and then said: "Uncle Zhang, you, Ankang, have indeed not been here for a few days. Don't blame me!"

Zhang Li touched the short beard on his chin and thought to himself, this guy seems to be a different person after not seeing him for a few days, acting calmly and speaking wisely.

He said, "You kid, you know how to cause trouble. Go up by yourself. Your Uncle Zhou is on the second floor."

Yang Xiuwen cupped his hands and thanked Uncle Zhang again, then walked up to the second floor.

Zhou Xingwen was sitting at a large desk with a frown on his face. When Yang Xiuwen came up, he calmed down and said, "Haha, Xiuwen is here. Come, sit down and have a cup of tea."

After saying that, he got up and went to the wooden sofa where guests were waiting, sat down and gave Yang Xiuwen a cup of tea.

Yang Xiuwen thanked him, took the tea and sat across from Zhou Xingwen. Then he said: "Uncle Zhou, I just saw you looking sad. What's the matter? Tell me, maybe I can help you."

Zhou Xingwen looked at the young boy in front of him and was amused.

He smiled and said, "Okay, let me tell you, this is not the birthday of the father-in-law, the director of the Cultural Affairs Bureau. Do you know what to give me? How about it? Is there any way? Hahaha."

Yang Xiuwen said: "Uncle Zhou, what did his father-in-law do before?"

"It seems that he was the former president of the Calligraphy Association of the Cultural Affairs Bureau. Does this have anything to do with it?" Zhou Xingwen said.

Yang Xiuwen thought for a while and said: "Uncle Zhou, you can give me a picture of a hundred years of longevity. It is a picture composed of a hundred different fonts. It suits your liking and has a good meaning."

When Zhou Xingwen heard this, his eyes lit up and he said: "Yes, why didn't I think of it? It's okay to revise the article, hahaha."

But he immediately said, "No, I don't have enough time. I need to do it tomorrow. Now go and find someone who is proficient in calligraphy."

Yang Xiuwen looked at his gloomy look, hesitated and said, "Uncle Zhou, how about I give it a try, and you can see if it works first?"

Yang Xiuwen's predecessor was the president of the Painting and Calligraphy Association in college, and he had profound attainments in calligraphy and painting.

Zhou Xingwen looked at him blankly for a while, then asked Zhang Li to prepare pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Zhang Li felt curious after hearing this, so he closed the store door and went up to the second floor.

Yang Xiuwen stood in front of his desk. He closed his eyes for a while and then opened his eyes.

Zhou Xingwen and Zhang Li felt a sense of everyone's momentum spreading from him, and they were extremely shocked.

I saw Yang Xiuwen flicking his wrist, waving his ink pen, and completed it in one go. In about ten minutes, a hundred words were completed.

He sighed, picked up Xiaohao again, and quickly drew a pine and cypress on the left side of the painting, lifelike.

On the right hand side, there is a running script: "The green mountains are evergreen and lush, and the sea of ​​blessings is endless." The inscription is "Floating Bird" in April of the Gengwu Year.

After finishing, Yang Xiuwen breathed a sigh of relief.

Looking up, he found Zhou Xingwen and Zhang Li looking intently at the finished calligraphy and painting with expressions of disbelief on their faces. He coughed and woke them up.

Zhang Li quickly walked to Yang Xiuwen's position and carefully looked at his finished calligraphy and painting.

He sighed: "It's amazing. With the grass as the center, Li, Kai, Xing and Zhuan are cleverly combined. Shi'er is majestic, Shi'er is a small bridge with flowing water, and the pines and cypresses are timely foils. The hand of a master! Who is this floating bird?

?"

Yang Xiuwen replied, "It's my pen name, Uncle Zhang, Uncle Zhou. Can I use these characters?"

Zhou Xingwen also patted Yang Xiuwen on the shoulder with emotion and said, "For such a long time, I didn't know you had this ability. The words are definitely usable, even a little heavy."

He turned to look at Zhang Li and said, "Teacher Zhang, please do your best to frame the calligraphy today." Zhang Li nodded, carefully rolled up the calligraphy and painting, and went down.

After the two sat down again, Yang Xiuwen said: "Uncle Zhou, I came to you today because I have something to ask for. Look at my small shop. I can't make much money every day. It's not a problem. I just want to learn from you.

, please pay attention."

Zhou Xingwen looked at him and said, "Your store is really not good. Why don't you follow me and rent out the store?"

Yang Xiuwen hesitated and said, "Uncle Zhou, I have an idea. I am very interested in antiques, calligraphy and painting, and I have read a lot of information. I want you to take me into this industry. Do you think it will work?"

Zhou Xingwen looked at Yang Xiuwen in surprise, thought for a while and said, "Well, you first take a look at the things in my room, and then tell me about them."

Yang Xiuwen knew that he was testing himself, so he stood up and carefully observed the furnishings in the room, tapping them with his hands from time to time.

After a cup of tea, he pointed to the chair behind the desk and said: "This chair is made of huanghuali. It is a typical official chair in his early fourties. It was made in the late Ming Dynasty. It has fine workmanship and a thick coating.

The desk dates from the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty and is also from Huanghuali. The desk that was cut from such a large piece must have had an owner who was at least a third-rank official.

The brush washer on the table is a blue and white porcelain brush washer from the Qianlong period. The blue and white colors are rich and gorgeous, the decoration and painting skills are exquisite, and it has the majesty of the early Qing Dynasty ceramics.

Overall, the carcass is bright white and moist, but unfortunately the Xianglong is a little stiff and the bottom of the plate is unmarked. It should be made by the private sector, but the collection value is still high.
