Chapter 004: Wang Xi's Peace Post

Xuan Bao antique shop is located in the boutique of the antique street, three classical style facades, neatly placed all kinds of antique treasures, compared with the groceries on the stalls outside, each piece of the collection in the antique store can be called a boutique, worthy of the name of the century-old store.

Shen Qiu got the money and was about to go to the hospital, when he saw an elderly lady hurrying to Xuanbaozhai with a complexion.

"Sorry to bother!"

The old woman had gray hair, a simple floral robe, wrinkled cheeks, red and bloodshot eyes, and looked slightly tired.

"Excuse me, does Xuan Bao Zhai accept the notebook?" said the old woman softly when she came to the counter.

Xie Jingwen nodded politely, and poured tea for the old woman to make way for a seat, the old woman took out a black hard book from her leather bag, spread out the book, and mixed a lot of old calligraphy, the calligraphy is large and small, most of the paper is yellowed, and the surface is old.

In general, the preservation of these calligraphy is very good, each calligraphy is sealed with a plastic vacuum seal, and the calligraphy contains cursive, regular script, line calligraphy, and various types of calligraphy.

Add up to about thirty or forty copybooks, each copybook is basically marked with a letter, the earliest has the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty, most of them are modern copybooks.

The old woman said that these calligraphy calligraphy was collected by her husband, and her husband began to collect it when he was young, and now he has spent a lot of savings to collect this batch of calligraphy calligraphy, and now her husband is seriously ill and hospitalized, and has spent all the savings of the family.

"I heard that Xuan Bao Zhai is a century-old shop, so I came here to hand over this brochure to you inexplicably. ”

The old woman looked kind, not like she was lying, but there has never been a shortage of good storytellers in the antique industry, Xie Jingwen politely listened to the old woman's statement, and then carefully looked through the calligraphy in the old woman's hand.

Shen Qiu also glanced at the side, these calligraphy are old goods, but most of them are copying calligraphy, but a few genuine handwritings are also some general unknowns, the pen is quite sharp, but it is far from reaching the level of famous masters.

Xie Jingwen asked the old woman while flipping through the booklet: "Madam, may I ask how much your booklet is going to sell?"

The old woman breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I don't know much about this aspect, the old man used to collect these calligraphy books and spent seventy or eighty thousand, the old man said that the market for the collection of calligraphy is bullish, and this booklet can be sold for at least 150,000 yuan!"

"Ma'am, you may be disappointed. Xie Jingwen stopped the gesture of flipping through the hand in his hand: "I have seen almost all of your calligraphy, most of them are copying calligraphy, there are two late Ming Dynasty and three Qing Dynasty copybooks, although the calligraphy handwriting is quite neat, but they are not masterpieces, and the collection value is not high and cannot be sold at a high price." ”

The old woman heard the suspicion, and her expression was a little panicked: "If 150,000 doesn't work, 120,000 is okay, 100,000 is okay...... Boss Xie also asked you to help me, my family really needs this money, and the old man is still lying on the hospital bed!"

Xie Jingwen shook his head slightly, and his tone was firm: "Madam, I also want to help you, but this booklet is really not worth so much money, and I can give you up to 20,000 yuan if I say it." ”

Xie Jingwen finished reading the last copybook, confirmed that there were indeed no celebrity copybooks in it, and rationally quoted his price.

The old woman frowned, her face was disappointed, before this she also walked through a lot of antique shops, several bosses said that these calligraphy booklets are not worth much, basically all of them are three or five thousand prices, but the price of Xuan Bao Zhai is the highest.

But 20,000 yuan is a drop in the bucket for the old man's condition, and this booklet is the lifeblood of the old man, and it really makes her feel very difficult to sell it or not.

"Wait!"

However, at this time, Shen Qiu, who had not spoken, suddenly shouted, originally he didn't have much hope, but when Xie Jingwen flipped through the last post, he saw the bright spot in it.

"Ma'am, don't you mind selling me this copybook?"

Xie Jingwen was not angry, she knew very well the value of this copybook, and the reason why she opened 20,000 yuan also contained many sympathetic factors: "Shen Dashao, I also fell in love with this booklet?"

Shen Qiu took the booklet, flipped to the last copybook, and carefully observed the side, this is the copy of the Qing Dynasty, cursive, copying is Wang Xizhi's forty-one words of "Peace Post", the paper is also the most ordinary hard yellow paper.

The calligraphy is also the end of the paragraph, a word "great man" in the Qianlong period copied out, Qianlong 31 years out of this calligraphy, in addition to the middle of the calligraphy also fell a few square red stamps.

That's right!

Shen Qiu's mind came up with the details of this red seal, and his eyes immediately lit up: "I want this booklet......

"Huh?" The old woman was quite surprised, seeing that Shen Qiu was young and dressed like a joke, she hurriedly covered the notebook: "How much do you want?"

Shen Qiu took out the bank card that was not yet hot: "Madam, my card is only 100,000 yuan now, if you believe me, I will make up all 150,000 yuan for you tomorrow at most!"

"I'm relieved, I'm relieved......" The old woman nodded busily, surprised and happy in her heart, not to mention 100,000 yuan, even the 20,000 yuan opened by Xie Jingwen She is ready to make a deal.

"Shen Qiu, what kind of play are you singing? Are you sure you want to?" Xie Jingwen's fair cheeks were full of doubts, I don't know what details Shen Qiu likes in this booklet, she has personally palmed the booklet here, there is no valuable booklet at all, why is Shen Qiu's mouth 150,000?

"If you are sure that you want it, I will help you cushion the 50,000 yuan first, and Madame will take the money to treat the uncle first......" Xie Jingwen looked at Shen Qiu's face again to confirm that this kid was not talking nonsense.

"I want 150,000!"

It took less than ten minutes to complete the transaction, and the old woman took 150,000 thanks, and when she left, she didn't forget to bow Shen Qiu to express her gratitude.

Xie Jingwen's face was full of confusion when she saw this operation, if she didn't know something about Shen Qiu, she would even suspect that the two of them were colluding to cheat money.

"Boss Xie, I owe you 50,000 yuan, and I'll send it to you in the afternoon!"

Xie Jingwen blocked Shen Qiu: "Put aside 50,000 yuan first, you tell me first, what do you fancy about the booklet? Don't say 20,000 yuan for this booklet." 10,000 yuan is not a big sight for many people! If you can explain it, I don't want 50,000 yuan!"

Shen Qiu sat down again with the notebook: "Then I'll tell you, Boss Xie trouble to pour me a glass of water first, I'm thirsty......"

"Shen Qiu, you really don't treat yourself as an outsider!" Xie Jingwen glanced at Shen Qiu, and still picked up the purple clay pot and cut a cup of tea for Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu let go of the notebook and lifted it to the last notebook: "It's this notebook, I found it missing!"

Xie Jingwen came up and took a look, and immediately smiled: "Shen Qiu? You don't think this is Wang Xizhi's authentic handwriting? The authentic handwriting of Wang Xizhi's peace post is 24.2 long and 13.8 wide, and it is by no means an ordinary yellow hard paper!"

"And this "Peace Post" is obviously a copy of the work, and the signature is the ancients of Zhang Weiren! There are so many of these Qing Dynasty calligraphy on the market, and the quality is only 2,000 yuan, and you actually bid 150,000 yuan? Shen Dashao, Shen Dashao! I shouldn't believe you!"

The reason why Xie Jingwen cushioned 50,000 yuan was because the tourmaline hairpin noticed the difference in Shen Qiu, but this would inevitably make her a little discouraged, not because of the 50,000 yuan, but because she was annoyed that she had misseen Shen Qiu.

Shen Qiu took a sip of tea unhurriedly: "Come on, come on, Boss Xie, popularize a few knowledge points for you." First of all, let's talk about the level of copying of this "Peace Post", its penmanship is sharp and chic, and the words are light and elegant, although it is a copy of Wang Xizhi, but it has its own handwriting style!"

"Besides, this great man, "great man" is just one of his names, this person is actually a champion in the Qianlong period, his name is Zhang Jie, the word great man, this is exactly a champion work of the Qing Dynasty!"

Xie Jingwen snorted, she really didn't notice this detail, there are too many people copying Wang Xizhi's works in history, especially in the Tang Dynasty and Qing Dynasty.

"That's not right!" Xie Jingwen immediately retorted: "Shen Qiu! Even if it is the work of the champion of the Qing Dynasty, this calligraphy is not worth 150,000 yuan, let alone a copy of the work." Xuan Bao Zhai has sold a lot of top works, unless it is a celebrity, the price is far from reaching the price of 150,000 yuan! Zhang Jie, who is not famous, is at most 30,000 yuan!"

Where did the 150,000 come from?
