Chapter 43: De Xuan Zhai

As the birthplace of Xuanbi, Xuan paper and Hui ink, there are many shops with four treasures of study in Huizhou. Zhong Yue heard Zhang Laifu say before that Dexuanzhai is an old study in Huizhou, and the rice paper sold is of high quality. When using rough paper, it was purely a practice. Now the direction of Zhong Yue’s progress is in the layout and layout.

This is the charm of calligraphy. If you pick a character from a classic work, you will feel that the character is in a strange structure and a bit unstable. However, it is so comfortable to put it in the whole work, which involves the echo and connection between characters.

Some are related to brushwork, while others are structural support.

What involves these is no longer a practice of word by word, but is viewed as a complete work. The size of the rough paper is hard to accommodate such a size.

I took the bus and had only transferred to the stops for two times, and then I heard my phone vibrate again.

No need to think about it, it must be a text message sent by Gu Qin.

"Teacher Huang said that if you have time, you can go to the Youth Palace on weekends, and he will give you some advice on calligraphy."

After reading the text message, Zhong Yue thought about Huang Mingchuan, which was pretty good, so he replied to the message: "Give me Teacher Huang's number, thank you."

After a while, there was another ding-dong sound.

"I think beautifully, you want to go, just go to the Youth Palace on Saturdays and Sundays."

Zhong Yue smiled slightly. This guy is really willful. But he didn't care much about whether he could get Huang Mingchuan's guidance. The originators of lacquer books are all in the system, and they are not short of this or two instructions. After getting off the car, Zhong Yue clicked on the map on his phone. The current smart phone is really much more convenient, real-time navigation, and even saving on asking for directions.

Following the navigation around two bends, Zhong Yue saw a small shop near the river bank. The decoration was quite elegant, and it looked like the wind and sunny, and the sign had a little faded.

"Hello, what do you need?"

"Buy some rice paper."

"Oh, sorry, our rice paper is not only sold. If you want to buy it, you can only buy one knife."

Zhong Yue looked at the many mounting styles on the wall and asked, "How much does it cost to have a knife?"

"Two hundred and one knife, if you need a lot of quantity, you can get a discount on the price."

"Come on three knives."

The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise: "Do you want to be raw or familiar with Xuan?"

Although I have been practicing calligraphy for several months, Zhong Yue has not received systematic calligraphy education and has only a slight understanding of the choice of paper. "Is there any difference?"

The owner's eyelids twitched. Nowadays, young people are so generous in their actions. They can use three swords at every turn. That's three hundred four-foot big pens.

"Raw Xuan is easy to store for a long time and has strong water absorption, so if it is used by beginners, it is difficult to control the use of ink; Craft Xuan is made of dyed gel alum. The processed raw Xuan Xuan will not penetrate after water, but it is not easy to store for a long time. If you want to sprinkle gold, tiger skin or cicada feathers and other processing Craft Xuan Xuan, the price is slightly more expensive than Su Xuan."

Zhong Yue thought about it and found that what he needed to make progress now was the method of using ink. If you use Crazy Xuan, although it is easy to control ink, the disadvantages it brings are also obvious, and it is difficult to make progress in ink.

"Just let's take three swords to pronounce it."

The owner frowned, "I recommend you to use cooked rice dumplings. After all, beginners do not have good control over using ink. If you buy three-bit paper, you will find it bad to use it. The small shop will not return this product."

"We need to pronounce the world."

When the middle-aged store owner saw Zhong Yue's persistent look, he frowned, "In this way, there is a study on the side. Try this raw Xuanxuan. If you think it's good, it's not too late to buy it."

Zhong Yue's eyes lit up, and the conscientious businessman, "Okay, I'll give it a try."

Zhong Yue walked into the somewhat cramped study room with a lot of trial rice paper on his head.

"This thin and crispy one is single-slip, this thicker one is single-slip, this is clean leather, this is cotton material, this is clamping, and three-layer clip."

“…”

The middle-aged shop owner felt that he was talking too carefully, so he smiled, "The raw rice dumplings are all based on personal preferences. You can try these cut papers. I'll go out to greet the business first."

Zhong Yue picked up the pen beside him, took a piece of paper, pressed it with a ruler, and wrote a running script.

The ink absorption of Shanxuan is indeed excellent. After Zhong Yue put it into writing, he could clearly feel it, but it was not much different from the rough paper. However, when the pen fell on such Shanxuan, Zhong Yue clearly felt that it was a world of difference from the inferior rice paper that he used to make up for the numbers.

Even though the use of lacquer books requires a lot of pen strength on such rice paper, Zhong Yue still feels a long-lost sense of hardship.

In the field of calligraphy and painting creation, the use of raw Xuanxuan is precisely because of the difficulty of writing that makes the charm of calligraphy art shine. Because of the difficult characteristics of raw Xuanxuan writing, many people are discouraged by this, and it is difficult to achieve success.

The difficulty brought by raw radish is that the paper is like applying anti-slip agent, which increases the friction between the pen and the paper, making the writing less refreshing. However, if this difficulty is overcome, the calligraphy achieves a higher level.

After using a few more pieces of paper, Zhong Yue also tried to use the next one. He felt that the raw clipping was the most touching thing to use, so he walked out of the study and saw the owner discussing business with an old man, and said, "Three-knife raw clipping."

The owner had to persuade him a few more words, but when he came to business, he saw that Zhong Yue was so confident, so he pulled out three pieces of paper from behind and wrapped it in a piece of kraft paper. "There are a total of 420 yuan, a discount for 400 yuan, and I will come to visit more in the future."

"Ink, is there any better ink?"

The old man looked at Zhong Yue's outfit and enthusiastically recommended: "Beginners don't need a good ink ingot, it's pretty good ink."

The shop owner smiled and said, "How about the ink you used in the small study just now?" As he said that, he took out the ink from the big cabinet behind him.

Zhong Yue felt that the ink he used before was OK, so he nodded and said, "Get five bottles."

You have to prepare enough things at one time, one bottle or two, so it is troublesome to go to the city by yourself. After buying it, you can save you from running again and again.

"Young man, do you do wholesale if you buy so much paper and ink?"

"No, take it back and use it yourself."

The old man was stunned, "Use it yourself? You can use these three knife papers until the year of the Monkey and Horse Month. Although it is easier to use for a long time, my little grandson bought him a knife paper three years ago, and now, there are still most of the knife left. You are wasting it."

Zhong Yue smiled embarrassedly. He had to write it on for several hours every day. The ten stacks of rough paper were used repeatedly by him, and it was painted black.

The shop owner placed five bottles of ink on the table, "Twenty-one bottles, a total of five hundred."

Zhong Yue took out the money, picked up the plastic bag, carried three knife rice paper, and left happily.

The old man looked at Zhong Yue's departure back and asked blankly: "Now the school's special education has reached this level? No matter how much rice paper is bought, they will carry it to your house with one knife?"

"I don't know, Lao Cai, let's not talk about him anymore. A new batch of tiger skin cooked rice dumplings in the store. Do you want to try it?"

"Okay." The old man walked into the small study room familiarly and hurried out again.

The owner, who was still sorting out the paper cabinet, turned around and said, "What's wrong?"

"Who wrote this word?"

The work in the old man's hand is like a masterpiece of a famous artist.

"I don't know, there are too many customers coming to the store every day, I can't remember it."

The old man touched the moji with his hand, "It's not done yet."
