"Are you here to buy another painting? This painting isn't mine. Even if I want to sell it, I have to ask for his opinion first."
After hanging up the phone call for the tenth person to buy a painting today, Professor Zhang called Xia Wanyuan and explained the situation to her, asking for her opinion.
"I'll give you that ink bamboo painting. Thank you for liking my painting. As for the rest, please help me sell them."
After hearing Professor Zhang's call, Xia Wanyuan roughly knew what was troubling Professor Zhang.
Some Chinese scholars had their own style and did not want their paintings to be associated with money, thinking that it was a stain on the purity of their works.
Professor Zhang was worried that Xia Wanyuan would have such a habit, so he appeared especially troubled when others came to buy paintings.
