crazy smart

067: Strange Rocks The Irish Wolfhound originated in Ireland and originated in 100 BC, from the ancient royal dog.It is truly a giant dog, the tallest dog in the world.The appearance is generally similar to that of a greyhound, with a very messy coat; the body structure is strong, and the muscles are well developed, thus showing an elegant posture.Sturdy and stable in structure, showing strength, activity, courage and symmetry.

The Irish Wolfhound is the national dog of Ireland. Descriptions of the Irish Wolfhound can often be seen in legends, stories, and literary works.This dog is a tall, rough-haired dog breed that is often used to hunt wolves, elk, wild boars and other animals.Irish wolfhounds are often loved among nobles and given to each other as gifts, which led to Oliver Cromwell having to issue a British export ban.

At the beginning of the 18th century, the last wolf in Scotland was killed; in 1766, the Irish wolfhound was completely wiped out, and the number of Irish wolfhounds, which were famous for hunting wild wolves, dropped sharply and was on the verge of extinction.In the 19th century, George Graham, an officer of the British Army, worked hard to breed it, and mixed it with the Scottish Deerhound to improve it, so that the breed was redeveloped, and this breed attracted people's attention again.

With the development of society and economy, this kind of giant dog in the world, the shortest male is one meter, and the lightest is a hundred kilograms. Under the excavation of manpower, especially under the stimulation of the cruel underground dog fighting system, the Irish wolfhound The wildness has been fully recovered, and the attack power has been fully improved. The wolfhound can really hunt the jungle wolf alone, instead of relying on the advantages of groups and humans like its ancestors.

Lin Li didn't know how he got out.

He only knew that after the appearance of the Irish Wolfhound, his thinking became uncontrollable and he began to think in the most sinister direction.How to ambush the Irish wolfhound before the game for a while, and how to cancel the game because of the mutiny of the sea for a while, in short, my head is a mess.

Bi Han continued to check the information, and finally said: "If Yue Shao's Caucasian dog is the champion fighting dog here, then Haijia's Irish Wolfhound is the well-deserved number one fighting dog in the Tianfu Club. The king of dogs. But the strange thing is that the Irish wolfhound of the Hai family also had a defeat, but that defeat was only mentioned briefly, without any on-site records."

Lin Li is not in the mood to know this now, he is planning a feasible strategy.

Mr. Tu also began to display his professionalism.You must know that he is a frequent visitor here, and he still knows a little bit about dog fighting. He analyzed Haijia's Irish wolfhound from a professional perspective: "This Irish wolfhound is obviously professionally trained. Its thighs Muscular, with long, strong second thighs, low hocks, turning neither in nor out; and equally well muscled shoulder blades, about the same width as the chest, sloping, with the elbows well down, and equally well muscled. Neither turning in nor turning out. Such a good size proves that it is good at aggressive attacks, lunging and biting are its strengths, but it is a little weak in turning on the spot."

Lin Li was astonished.

Mr. Tu gave him the impression that he is a rich and loyal coal boss, so the so-called professional knowledge has nothing to do with him.But now it seems that he was wrong, very wrong, just based on what he said just now, it is enough to prove that Mr. Tu has unique attainments in dog fighting.

"Thank you, President Tu, for reminding me!"

After Lin Li got the reminder, he had a strategy to deal with it.

But Lin Li didn't have much time to prepare.He wanted to procrastinate for more time, but the 15 minutes from the Hai family was about to end, so he had to bring Dahei to the arena to face those crazy enemies and supporters in person.

"Wow! It really came out!"

"This kid is really bold! If he wins another round like this, he will tie the Hai family's winning streak and win the No. [-] Dog King here!"

"I think there is something wrong with this kid. The big black dog is so injured that he even let him play. This is obviously giving us money! Anyway, I don't care about this kid's courage. I will go to sea in this round The family wolfhound."

There was a lot of discussion on the scene, some made decisive bets after seeing Dahei's state, some analyzed slowly, and some called to inform someone, the scene became lively.It's just that compared with the previous atmosphere, it's a little restrained.

But none of these can interfere with Lin Li, because he saw the most hated enemy:

Sea rebellion.

Hai Ren came lightly, holding a brocade box in his hand.

Hai Ren's intention was very direct, he opened the brocade box in front of everyone, and said, "Boy, you are so lucky that you have won so much money in a row. But when you met my big wolf, your Luck stops here. This is my bet, a masterpiece handed down by the famous painter Gong Xian."

This is a landscape painting with profound attainments, and there are vigorous and powerful characters on it.

"Gong Xian!"

Bi Han exclaimed.

Gong Xian, a famous painter in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.Also known as Qixian, with the characters Banqian and Banmu, the name Yeyi, Chai Zhangren, Zhongshan Yelao, a native of Kunshan, Jiangsu, lived in Jinling (now Nanjing City), participated in the rehabilitation activities in the early years, and went out during the war in the late Ming Dynasty Wandering and wandering, living in seclusion in the Qing Dynasty, he and painters Fan Qi, Gao Cen, Zou Zhe, Wu Hong, Ye Xin, Hu Zhen, Xie Sun, etc. who were active in the Jinling area at the same time were called "Jinling Eight".Gong Shiwen, good at cursive, originated from Mi Fu, and does not stick to ancient methods, forming a self-contained body.He is the author of "The Collection of Fragrant Herbs".

"Half an acre! The signature is correct!"

Lin Li nodded when he saw that the signature was "half acre".

After several relocations, Gong Xian's family finally settled in Qingliang Mountain, Nanjing.He built a garden and planted it on the half-acre open space in front of the house, and named it "half-acre garden".After settling in the half-acre garden, Gong Xian still communicated with the calligraphy and painting circles. In addition to learning painting skills with Jinling painters Gao Cen, Fan Qi, Zou Zhe, Wu Hong, etc., his friends also included Qu Dajun, Cheng Zhengkui, Wang Shigu, Sun Zhiwei, Dai Benxiao, Hongren, etc. .It was also during this period that Gong Xian created a lot of high-quality poems, calligraphy and paintings, a small part of which was inscribed on the "half acre" in front of him.

After all, Bi Han is a talented student majoring in archaeology, so he immediately used his brain to identify it: "The rocks and trees are vigorous and thick, and they have been rubbed and dyed repeatedly with the method of accumulating ink. There are as many as ten layers. The ink color is extremely thick, but there are still depths and shades Subtle changes such as light and shade, mountains, rocks and trees are often blended together, leaving only a little highlight and solid outline on the sunny side or the edge of the outline. , Moisturizing, and deep features. Such an outstanding artistic attainment is definitely Gong Xian's ink style."

Lin Li nodded, and echoed, "Gong Xian is good at using ink layer by layer. Although he doesn't need to splash ink, it actually has the effect of splashing ink and moistening smoke, which is quite characteristic of people in Song Dynasty."

Lin Li has read a lot of books, most of which are Bi Han's textbooks and class notes.Among them is the artistic depiction of Gong Xian.

Lin Li still clearly remembered that Gong Xian was the best at using ink in painting, and advocated that the ink should be thick and moist. He developed the method of accumulating ink. Layers of chapped dyes are used to cover and moisten it, so that the mountains and trees present a fresh and thick ink rhyme, which makes the picture moist and heavy. His paintings have a deep and serene style.

Bi Han really deserves to be an expert on antiques, and immediately appraised: "Gong Xian's painting methods are very distinctive, known as 'Mo Gong' and 'Bai Gong' in the world. He is good at using black and white contrast techniques, the former is dense and vast, and the latter is simple and elegant. .Gong Xian’s painting technique vividly interprets black and white contrast techniques, impeccable, and he was definitely a top figure in this field at that time.”

Mr. Tu is a well-known collector in the coal province anyway, and he has heard a little about Gong Xian's works. He only heard him say: "If I remember correctly, I once participated in an auction, and Gong Xian was among them. It is a landscape painting, the auction reserve price is very exaggerated, a full 400 million, but it was sold at a price of 550 million, which shocked me a lot.”

"550 million!"

Lin Li swallowed his saliva.

Bi Han did not want to know something about this, and said: "I know, it is Gong Xian's "Axis of Towers and Towers in the Mid-Levels". At that time, the teacher used this painting as a textbook to give us a research topic."

Hearing this, Lin Li's mind was moved, and he lost an identification technique on the calligraphy and painting:

Gong Xian's "Strange Rocks".This picture is extremely precious, and it is a rare cynical work by Gong Xian. Players are strongly recommended to collect it.

Seeing Lin Lixiao's excited expression, Hai Ren asked triumphantly, "How is it? Someone once gave me an estimate of 450 million yuan for my painting "The Strange Rock", but I didn't sell it. But this time it's cheaper for you, here it is The price is 400 million, do you dare to bet?"

Because Lin Li won 3 rounds in a row, he was no longer restricted by the conditions of the ring master, and could refuse any additional bets from the challenger.In order to completely suppress the Lin family, Hai Ren had to resort to some more exciting tactics, and this "The Picture of Strange Rocks" was his trump card.

Lin Li replied casually: "400 million, are you dreaming? This painting hasn't passed the exact appraisal, and the price we mentioned is the auction price, and the result will be taxed. You just ask 400 million, is it right? Are we fools?"

Hai Ren blushed with anger.

However, in order to achieve his goal, he could only continue to seduce: "In this case, let's reduce it by 50."

"It's still expensive."

Lin Li said this was just to delay time.

In fact, the "Strange Rock" produced by Hai Ren is undoubtedly genuine, and it is also an extremely rare and cynical work, an absolute rarity.Not to mention 400 million, even if it is 500 million, there are probably many people rushing to ask for it.

Seeing Hai Ren's angry look, Lin Li knew he couldn't delay.

The sea traitor is cruel by nature, and it is absolutely possible to make crazy moves in anger.For Ma San's safety, for the safety of himself and his family, Lin Li could only nod and agreed to an additional bet of 350 million.

"Hey, why is Xiao Jin here?"

Lin Li was a little surprised when he suddenly sensed Xiao Jin's presence.

But when he saw Xiao Jin's position, a very terrifying thought suddenly popped up in his heart, a crazy thought that was enough to make the Hai family worse.
