Almost all these calligraphy and paintings are from modern celebrities, and the most expensive one is Chen Shizeng's flower and bird pictures.

Although it is not a work from Chen Shizeng's peak, the current starting price is still hundreds of thousands.

Monk Yuantong unexpectedly glanced at Zhao Yushi. He occasionally wanted to see Chen Shizeng's flower and bird pictures. Zhao Yushi was very precious and was willing to take them out on weekdays. He took them out and gave them to Mu Zhengyang. It was said to be full of sincerity, but he didn't say anything, quietly wanted to see how Mu Zhengyang would deal with it.

A gentleman is not a gentleman to repay kindness, but a villain is a villain to repay kindness without gratitude.

"The King of Jingshi" compiled by Feng Menglong in the late Ming Dynasty, telling the story of Zhao Kuangyin sending his mother to Jing from thousands of miles away.

Jingniang was willing to trust her for life, but Zhao said, "The virtuous sister is not my wise man. She was originally sent to you for all my loyalty. Now, what is the difference between a private relationship and that horse? What's more, it's not a gentleman to repay her kindness." Jingniang said, "My brother is very good, I can't repay my great virtue in this life, and I should hold a carrot to tie a grass when I die." So Jingniang committed suicide by jumping into the lake and was later posthumously named Mrs. Zhenyi, and Jingniang Lake was also named after this.

When Mu Zhengyang was saving people in Tiekou Lane, he did not care about the identity of the rescued person, nor did he think about seeking rewards in the future. He just did something he thought he should do, and later refused Zhao Kangping's invitation. However, in his opinion, Zhao Kuangyin's approach was a bit too much, which led to Jing Niang's suicide. He smiled and said to Zhao Yushi: "I saved people by doing it casually. The old man came here from afar. I have already received the thanks from the old man, but there are too many calligraphy and paintings, so let me pick out a look of what I like!"

Zhao Yushi knew very well that among his calligraphy and paintings, except for Chen Shizeng's flower and bird pictures, the other collection value was very average. Since Mr. Mu planned to choose a pair of his favorites from them, he should choose Chen Shizeng's flower and bird pictures. Moreover, the other paintings at the level of Mr. Mu may not have seen them before they even took a look at them, and he said, "Okay, I will spread them all for you to see, Mr. Mu will choose them at will!"

Monk Yuantong helped and spread several calligraphy and paintings brought by Zhao Yushi on the long table.

Mu Zhengyang glanced at it. From an artistic perspective, Chen Shizeng's flower and bird pictures were like cranes standing out. Moreover, from the eyes of Zhao Yushi and the bald monk, they should all love Chen Shizeng's flower and bird pictures very much, so he picked a yellowed scroll.

The yellowed scroll is the only historical flavor among these calligraphy and paintings, and only the small black characters "Mountain and River Map" in the middle of the top are particularly clear, but the content in the painting is blurry, but the outlines of the mountains, rivers and rivers can be seen faintly, and there is no other special place.

Mu Zhengyang pointed to the yellowed scroll and said, "Then I will choose this painting!"

Zhao Yushi didn't expect Mu Zhengyang to choose this painting, and explained to Mu Zhengyang: "This painting was exchanged for someone with a cigarette from Beidakuen at a street stall decades ago. At first I thought I had found a treasure, but later I specifically asked someone to identify it, saying that the painting only has the material and some characteristics, and the content on the painting is worthless. You can choose this painting of flowers and birds, which is the work of a famous modern master Chen Shizeng, and it is more valuable for collection!"

Mu Zhengyang shook his head, put away the yellowed "mountain and river map" on the table, and smiled and said, "Old sir, you just said you asked me to choose whatever you want. I like this painting. You can't regret it!"

Monk Yuantong saw it clearly. Since ancient times, calligraphy and painting have not been distinguished. People who can write the words "Bamboo and Stone" and "Drinking" I saw yesterday must also have a certain level of appreciation for Chinese paintings. Naturally, they can see the value of Chen Shizeng's flower and bird pictures. Moreover, Chen Shizeng's name alone is enough to make people excited. However, Mr. Mu chose an ordinary old painting scroll, which not only shows that he accepted Mr. Zhao's gratitude, but also did not win the love of others, and acted very well, and he couldn't help but nodded slightly.

Zhao Yushi was speechless for a moment, but he didn't find any idea to refute Mu Zhengyang's words and said, "Mr. Mu, this..."

Monk Yuantong smiled and said, "Old Zhao, your purpose of this trip has been half completed, but I still want to beg for alms from Mr. Mu!"

Zhao Yushi also thought through the context and was in awe of Mu Zhengyang in his heart, but he said everything, and it was too late to regret it now. He did not continue to be obsessed with thanking him. He smiled and introduced to Mu Zhengyang: "This great monk's Dharma name is Yuantong, and he is the host of Jinyu Lake Damen Temple in Tieshan, our county town! He is also proficient in calligraphy and claims to be the number one in running script in Ze'an City!"

"Yuantong?" Mu Zhengyang heard this and thought in his heart that this monk Yuantong might have a senior brother or junior brother named 'Shentong'. He looked at the monk Yuantong interestingly and said, "If this master wants to beg for alms, he must have gone to the wrong place. My place is a college."

Monk Yuantong laughed and said, "There are thousands of roads, the first calligraphy. I saw Mr. Mu's word yesterday. Today I came to see me. The air was filled with the fragrance of osmanthus wine. I would like to drink it with a glass of wine to the layman!"

Mu Zhengyang said as if you were late, "The two words you saw yesterday were originally discarded in the wastebasket. When I got home last night, I lacked the instructor for ignition, so I took them to ignite the fire, and now they have turned into ashes!"

Zhao Yushi said in a lost voice: "Ah? Yesterday's "Bamboo and Stone" wrote the willow style to the extreme, and that "Drinking" was deeply rooted in Yan Zhenqing's "Draft for Nephew". Not to mention that in our Ze'an City, it is a rare masterpiece of calligraphy even in Hanjiang Province. You just burn it like this?"

Mu Zhengyang said calmly: "Those are my two immature works. Just burn them. It's nothing to regret!"

Zhao Yushi's face turned red with anxiety, and he felt very regretful, as if he had lost two treasures, and said, "It's such a waste of resources. If I had known it was today's scene, I would have stolen them yesterday!"

Monk Yuantong seemed to see a monster, and the calligraphy photos could not reflect the original charm, but the painting "Drinking" he saw yesterday had already lit up his eyes. In just such a pair of words, the young man in front of him was actually used to ignite the fire, and it was said that it was his immature work. It was not a pity. It was really crazy, and he said, "Mr. Mu, those two words are works that you have not matured. I think I am a little diligent now. When I came, I received Mr. Mu's flying pen from the sky outside the door. It seems that Mr. Mu was practicing calligraphy just now. I wonder if I can borrow the words that Mr. Mu just wrote?"

Mu Zhengyang pointed to the wastebasket and said, "I have made some progress, but it has not yet reached the point of being fully integrated. Just use it as a brick to attract jade. Let's communicate with each other!"

"Waste Trash?"
