Shen Qiu's voice was as calm as water, but as soon as he spoke, everyone couldn't help but hold their breath and stared, and even Cao Donglai, who was very arrogant, and the master and apprentice subconsciously closed their mouths.

Shen Qiu re-unfolded "Autumn Landscape" in the field of view of everyone, and the narrow format of the painting almost covered the desk in the hotel room.

It is worth mentioning that everyone had seen the painting in their seats before, and had not looked at it up close, but now that they looked further, it was even worse than what they had seen before.

The dark yellow surface of the paper on the four sides is shaving, and because there is no plastic mounting, the aging of this painting is also relatively serious, and you can even smell a faint smell of mold when you stand on the edge of the frame.

"Everyone knows the specific situation of this painting, Wu Li's works in the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty, barely a hundred years of history from now, Wu Li is not a famous person, in the early years, he accumulated some fame by imitating and copying Tang Bohu's paintings, and the value of this painting alone may not be as valuable as his copying of Tang Bohu's works, as far as I know, four years ago, a copy of Wu Li's paintings in Guangzhou was sold for more than four million!"

"Yes! Shen Qiu! Look at your painting again, the paper of the scroll is moldy, and the surface of the paper is crumbling! This kind of painting is placed in the antique street, let alone 4 million! Even 40,000 yuan may not be able to be seen! Who wants to spend money to buy the quality of this kind of garbage!" Kang Kai was the first to express his opinion.

However, Director Feng has a different opinion on this: "Yes, the quality of this painting is indeed a little unbearable, but this is nothing for us antique researchers, with our current technology can be repaired and reframed, now Wu Li's work may not be famous, but in a few decades I believe that some people will appreciate Wu Li's style! Especially this "Autumn Landscape Painting" integrates the painting style of Chinese and foreign schools, which is simply unprecedented and unprecedented!"

"Among the ancient Chinese painters, Wu Li is definitely a unique existence!"

Shen Qiu came to the painting alone and said: "Have you noticed a detail, that is, the deeds of his grandfather mentioned by Count Aihua, his grandfather spent 1,300 yuan to buy this painting from a friend at a high price, and 1,300 yuan of ocean is almost the current amount of 800w if converted to now!"

Kang Kai immediately stood up and retorted: "Shen Qiu! This is just a story made up by the gringo to cheat money, and you also believe this? You must know that the antique industry has never been a good storyteller! Isn't he making up a story just to fool you into taking this painting at a high price?"

"Kang Kai!" Xie Jingwen stopped in one gulp: "Kang Kai, can you stop talking and let Shen Qiu finish speaking!"

Cao Donglai also signaled to the apprentice not to speak, he wanted to see what new tricks Shen Qiu could use to turn this cheap painting into a new trick.

Shen Qiu pointed to the painting and continued: "Everyone, what if Daogos's friend didn't deceive him back then, but gave him a good thing of equal value? What if this painting was really worth 1,300 yuan?"

"This ...... It's almost unlikely......"

Director Feng pondered for a while and shook his head and said: "I basically know about the painters in the Daoguang period, Wu Li is undoubtedly the most bottom-of-the-line existence among the painters at that time, he is because of the factor of copying and imitation, so he has always been looked down upon by his peers, not to mention what fame he has accumulated, no one will be stupid to pay 1300 yuan to buy Wu Li's paintings, just look at the simple framing of this painting, no one can look at it, unless Dao Gesi is a foreigner who knows nothing about Chinese historical calligraphy and painting,"

Shen Qiu nodded indifferently, revealing his signature smile, he instructed Xie Jingwen a few words, and saw Xie Jingwen turn around and take out a pair of scissors from the drawer.

Shen Qiu took the scissors and said, "Director Feng, don't you think there's anything wrong with this painting when it comes to framing? and the content of this painting, are you sure it's okay?"

"Master Shen, what do you mean by this, do you think this painting is a fake?" Together with Director Feng, they couldn't understand Shen Qiu, if there was really something wrong with this painting, why did Shen Qiu have to pay 400w to buy it.

Shen Qiu first pointed to the mounting of the painting and said, "Director Feng, you also said that this painting is a simple mounting, but if you look at the edge of the painting, do you see that it has uneven parts? Looking at the substance of this painting, do you have any signs of serious overlapping and ghosting in the middle part of the landscape content?"

Reminded by Shen Qiu, Director Feng came up and took a closer look: "That's right! Master Shen! It's really a problem for you to say this! Could it be that Wu Li's incarnation is also copied by someone? This is also unrealistic! This was completely unnecessary at that time! It was thankless!"

"Shen Qiu, just say what you want to say!" Cao Donglai urged impatiently: "Don't be so mysterious, if this painting is fake, it will be even less worth 400w, and in my opinion, it will be even more embarrassing!"

"Director Feng, what if I want to say that this painting is mounted on the second floor?"

Mounted on the second floor?

Several people present didn't react for a while, only Director Feng and Cao Donglai instantly understood what the second layer of mounting, which means that this painting was framed in two layers, the outside is a simple mounting, and the inside is another layer of mounting.

This is a special way of preservation in the era of war, some people use the way of framing two layers to mount two paintings, from the appearance of a worthless painting, in fact, the inside is the most important thing.

"Impossible! This is definitely not the second layer of mounting! Shen Qiu, why do you say that!"

Cao Donglai was a little excited, and tried his best to deny this possibility, because he was engaged in the business of antique appraisal, but he only heard about the method of mounting the second layer, and he had never seen the real one, in his opinion, this was a way that people made up.

There is no such thing in the real world!

"Master Shen...... You...... Based on this, you can assume that this painting is framed on the second floor? Isn't this a bit one-sided?" Director Feng also felt incredible, and asked in disbelief.

Shen Qiu raised the scissors in his hand: "Whether it's a second layer or not, you will know if I cut it!"

Shen Qiu picked up the scissors, raised and dropped the knife in his hand, and quickly cut open a circle of mounting on the periphery, and tore open a layer of painting paper on the outside with a pop, and another antique painting was presented in everyone's sight.

A painting about the same length as "Autumn Landscape Landscape" miraculously appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Two majestic mountains, a clear stream crossed, shrubs, weeds, rows of columns, simple brushstrokes outline a magnificent landscape, the painting is solid and heavy, the painting is written simply and clearly with the name of "bitter gourd monk".

Director Feng reacted immediately: "Bitter gourd monk? Shi Tao! This is Shi Tao's work! The first of the four great monks in the early Qing Dynasty, the work of the bitter gourd monk! "The Stream Passes Through the Mountain"!"

"Oh! This is really Shi Tao's work!" Director Feng's whole person was completely in a state of excitement: "Look at you! Shi Tao's brushstrokes are sharp and vigorous, and he is famous in the Qing Dynasty! Known as the first of the four great monks of the Qing Dynasty, his works have a strong personal style! Ordinary people have no ability to copy at all! Eyes are gone! This time it is really an eyes-wandering!"

"It turns out that Daogos was not deceived back then, this painting was indeed very famous at that time, and it was definitely worth 1,300 yuan, but I didn't expect Daogos to see it back then, and it was seen by our Master Shen after more than 100 years!

As soon as the divine painting appeared, the atmosphere of the whole room exploded instantly, and several experts led by Professor Feng had completely integrated into the appreciation of "Streams Through the Mountains", Cao Donglai and Kang Kai were stunned and speechless for a while.

Even if they are not as knowledgeable as Director Feng, they have also heard of the name of the bitter gourd monk, this kind of work of a famous Qing Dynasty artist, in the antique market, it is a starting price of tens of millions.

So Shen Qiu's gamble this time is definitely a win! The price of 400w is definitely missing!
