The exquisite little monk of the school flower

chapter 242

The first auction item is a painting written by the old man Feng Mochi on his 79th birthday last year: peaches and plums don't say anything, and the world will form a path.

These eight dictionaries come from "Historical Records", which means that although peach trees and plum trees can't speak, they will naturally attract people to come to enjoy the flowers and pick fruits because they will bloom beautiful flowers and grow delicious fruits. Slowly step on a path under the tree.

Therefore, this picture can be regarded as a true portrayal of Mr. Feng's teaching and educating career in his life.

"20 million!"

"25 million!"

"35 million!"

"42 million!"

……

In the end, this painting was taken by a student who graduated from the 42th grade at a price of 95 yuan.

The second auction item is a gift from Bai Jisong, which is the manuscript of Yan Yangchu, a famous educator in the Republic of China, on education. Although from the perspective of today's people, there is nothing new about the views on education in the manuscript, but The value of this manuscript is more reflected in its symbolic meaning and cultural value.

In the end, the manuscript was bought by a student who worked as the editor-in-chief of a publishing house after graduation at a price of 36 yuan.And the editor-in-chief said that he would ask Professor Feng to write a preface for this manuscript, and then publish this manuscript in an authentic way.

Next, the full-page zodiac stamps, ancient landscape scrolls and other items were unveiled one after another.

Among them, the most thoughtful lot was brought by a female classmate who worked as a head nurse in the hospital after graduation. She painstakingly collected the negatives of Mr. Feng’s graduation photos every year for more than 40 years of teaching, and made Mr. Feng appear in the photos. The figure zoomed in and then washed out.

The image in a single graduation photo may not be obvious, but after comparing year after year, the photo is equivalent to witnessing the aging of Feng Lao in more than 40 years.As soon as these forty or so photos were displayed, many students were moved to tears.

In the end, this group of photos was taken by Feng Lao's daughter at a price of 60 yuan.

"I believe that many people, like me, should have heard before the auction that classmate Chen Qiushi brought back a national treasure-level porcelain from abroad to give to Mr. Feng. Next, let us invite this one by Ming Dynasty porcelain sage He The ivory-white statue of Avalokitesvara sitting on a lotus made by Chaozong himself..."

Whoa!
There was an uproar below, and most people were shocked.

Even though most of the people present were not from the collectors and porcelain circles, He Chaozong, known as the "Porcelain Sage", was really too famous.

He Chaozong was a native of Jiajing and Wanli in the Ming Dynasty. Most of his porcelain sculptures are based on Buddhism, and he is especially good at sculpting Guanyin.The Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva he made is solemn and vivid, showing the charm of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva who saves all living beings and is compassionate.He Chaozong's saber techniques are round, soft and deep, with appropriate depth and depth, and his skill is especially powerful in the slightest hair.Every time it can accurately depict the rhythmic clothing lines of the Bodhisattva and the multi-layered dresses that flutter in the wind, especially the facial features, hands and feet of the Buddha statues are even more detailed.

Because of this, He Chaozong's porcelain sculptures were regarded as "unique treasures in the world" in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, whether in the East or the West, and people "did not hesitate to compete for them with ten thousand gold".In Buddhist countries in Japan and Southeast Asia, He Chaozong's Avalokitesvara is often regarded as a sacred treasure.Even in the eyes of Western Europeans, it is regarded as "the fine work of oriental art".

Qin Shiyin said in Shi Xinxin's ear: "Five years ago, a statue of Avalokitesvara from the Ming Dynasty with the seal of 'He Chaozong Seal' was sold at Bonhams London for 5 pounds, or about 52.925 yuan. Three years ago, A Dehua white-glazed Bodhidharma statue by He Chaozong was sold at a price of 534.58 million Hong Kong dollars. The Avalokitesvara statue brought by Chen Qiushi to Mr. Feng is as high as 1444 centimeters. If it is genuine, the price will definitely not be lower than 50 million. Therefore, You must be sure to see it!"

When Shi Xin heard the words, he activated his yin and yang Buddha eyes, scanned the ivory white Guanyin statue that Chen Qiushi had brought up, and carefully observed the glaze color, texture and carving techniques on the surface of the porcelain statue, almost nothing could be seen Question, he finally turned his attention to the inside of the porcelain statue, and finally found a strange seal inside the palm of the Avalokitesvara statue.

At this moment, Chen Qiushi was sensational on the stage: "The reason why I chose such a national treasure porcelain as a gift to Mr. Feng is because in the hearts of us students, Mr. Feng is actually no different from the merciful Guanyin Bodhisattva. His old man has always treated all students equally, and regards all students as his own children. I think that most of you present here should have had a few meals at Mr. Feng's house or received Feng's Is it the learning progress prizes that the teacher bought for everyone out of his own pocket? Therefore, I brought this Guanyin statue back to express my deep gratitude to the teacher. I hope this kind of teacher-student friendship can continue According to legend, it will always be engraved in our hearts..."

I have to say that this Chen Qiushi's eloquence is really good, his tone of voice is well controlled, and his emotions are very sincere and full, very contagious.

Many people were moved by his words.

"Next, we will enter the auction session. The starting price of He Chaozong's ivory lotus seated Avalokitesvara is 1000 million..."

However, Shi Xinxin interrupted the host before he finished speaking.

"Please wait a moment!"

Everyone's eyes focused on Shi Xiaoxin, and the host asked, "What's the matter with you, kid?"

Shi Xiaoxin said: "I just want to ask, is this Avalokitesvara statue in He Chaozong's style real? If someone takes a picture of it and finds out that it is a fake Avalokitesvara, wouldn't it be a shame?"

Chen Qiushi's face changed slightly, and he looked at Shi Xinxin warily, as if he was guessing whether Shi Xinxin had already noticed something, or just said it casually.

Of course, no matter which one is, it is very unfavorable to Chen Qiushi, so he smiled: "Everyone can rest assured that since it can be auctioned on the spot, it must be true. Experts appraised it before they dared to give it to Teacher Feng. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be embarrassing to send a fake Guanyin statue to Teacher Feng? By the way, this little brother looks so young. Judging from his age, Teacher Feng probably didn’t teach you, did he?”

His last sentence already carried a hint of threat: What kind of onion are you?None of Mr. Feng's students have spoken. What are you doing here, an outsider, babbling?

Shi Xinxin smiled and said: "Teacher Feng did not teach me, no matter my sister Qin Shiyin is a student of Teacher Feng, I came with Sister Shiyin this time, and I was just here to join in the fun, but I didn't expect to see Someone is holding a fake Avalokitesvara statue of He Chaozong to auction here in a serious way, so naturally you have to ask clearly..."

Whoa!
As soon as this sentence was uttered, there was an uproar in the audience, because Shi Xiaoxin's words had been made very clear, he thought it was a fake He Chaozong Avalokitesvara statue.

Chen Qiushi's expression changed on the spot, and he said angrily: "Young man, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately. If you say such things, you will have to pay legal responsibility!"
