Chapter 209: Incredible

Huo Xin really didn't tell nonsense.

As far as the truth goes, her words were even too conservative.

Not to mention anything else, this afternoon, when she brought Ning Weimin to her destination.

Facing the majestic and vast building in the core area of the capital.

Ning Weimin was so surprised that he almost transformed into a strange man in disguise.

"Huh......? This is where you're bringing me?

His eyes bulged out, and his jaw was about to drop to the ground.

And Huo Xin looked at Ning Weimin, whose expression was exaggerated to such an extent, just like seeing Chaplin's comedy, and was amused to laugh.

"How is it impossible? You're right, and that's it. ”

"You're joking an international joke! How can you sell things from this place?"

"Why can't you sell it? Cut, you're so rare and weird......

Speaking of this, Huo Xin didn't say anything, but swayed his body very relaxed with his hands behind his back.

She seemed to enjoy the effect of making Ning Weimin so shocked, and wanted to let this happiness last a little longer.

So until Ning Weimin couldn't help but urge.

She smiled slightly, and pierced the layer of window paper.

"Alright, I'll tell you what's going on. In fact, as early as 1979, a foreign guest service department was set up here to sell some paintings by modern and modern painters, and the income was used to improve the problem of insufficient funds. ”

"If nothing else, the main reason is that we often have to receive foreign guests here, but I don't even have the money to invite people to dinner. Our national financial allocation is limited. The standard for receiving foreign guests is set at three yuan per person. But how do you eat for three dollars? The difference has to be settled here. ”

"However, the paintings here are not selling very well. Because foreigners don't recognize it, but like the people...... Just like you, you usually don't know that there are famous calligraphy and paintings for sale here. Even I, if it weren't for the fact that my parents often accompanied foreign guests on tours, I would not have known about them when I came here to look for them. ”

"Fortunately, the calligraphy and paintings here were originally donated by those calligraphers and painters, so they can be sold as much as they want. Otherwise, how can it be so cheap?

Not to mention, as soon as Huo Xin explained the reason, Ning Weimin roughly understood.

Co-authorship: This is the cognitive dislocation and value deviation caused by the characteristics of the times.

On the one hand, our state has limited funds.

Sometimes, in order to solve practical difficulties, we have to allow some flexible policies to be carried out underneath.

On the other hand, art was generally not valued at that time.

In particular, it is common for modern and contemporary artists to be accepted and acquiesced in.

Finally, these paintings are too easy to obtain, and the dissemination of information in contemporary society is relatively closed.

The combination of these reasons will cause this kind of leakage that seems to him to be extremely incredible.

Sure enough, his subsequent inquiries seemed to confirm this view.

"Hey, since those calligraphy and paintings don't sell well here, why don't you sell them in the cultural relics store? ”

"Hey, you don't understand this? It's not a system, and everyone is troublesome, and they don't like to toss. ”

Huo Xin's contemporary way of thinking is a natural answer.

"Do you think that everyone is like you, and they regard these paintings as treasures? You don't want to think about what kind of unit people have here? What are these modern calligraphy and paintings? People themselves don't care much. ”

"Well, then again. You are buying paintings, do you still think that you have taken advantage of yourself? Do you think you are funny? Do you want to buy them?"

Ning Weimin has nothing to wonder about anymore.

I also feel that this is redundant.

Isn't it, if there is a lot of Ganoderma lucidum grass, won't it become a green onion?

After all, they are all the works of modern and modern painters, after all, many of these painters are still alive in the world.

After so many years, I don't know how much such calligraphy and painting have accumulated here.

I don't know if someone is still taking the initiative to send it here, it's strange if people can take it seriously.

To put it bluntly, just like the porcelain of the late Qing Dynasty, what happened to the official kiln? What happened to the blue and white?

Things after Qianlong can be seen everywhere, and no one takes them seriously at all.

No one would have expected that if you ignore it today, you will not be able to climb high in the future.

And isn't this the reliance on him to make a fortune, the biggest crossing benefit?

Come on, let's not sell it if it's cheap, it's important to get down to business.

So Ning Weimin, like the echo worm, nodded again and again.

"I want to buy it! I definitely want to buy it! I just want to ask with confidence. ”

"Huo Xin, you are so interesting this time, you really gave me a big surprise. I don't even know how to thank you......"

It was the first time Huo Xin had been praised by Ning Weimin like this, and it was the first time he had seen him so happy.

couldn't help but smile, continued to give full play to the fine tradition of our nation's ancient road and warmth, and happily led Ning Weimin to the foreign guest service department.

What he saw and heard afterwards made Ning Weimin feel extremely happy and shocked

Because even though he was mentally prepared, he never thought about what he saw.

In the two rooms of more than 40 square meters on the second floor, even if he and Huo Xin were combined, there were only six or seven guests, not as many as the staff here.

But whether it is on the wall or on the counter, it is full of authentic works of famous artists!

According to Ning Weimin's own estimates, there can be hundreds of paintings and calligraphy here, which is enough to top two Rong Bao Zhai.

It can be said that there are famous works in Rong Bao Zhai, and there are all here.

But there are some famous works here, but Rong Bao Zhai may not be able to see it.

At this point, you can see the gap between the two.

Ask the price again, and sure enough, it is almost as cheap as giving it for nothing, exactly the same as what Huo Xin said.

He is like the man who went into the mountains with a sack and accidentally found a valley full of gold.

With great joy, I picked it up and began to pack the baby.

It didn't take long to choose three Huang Yongyu, two Huang Binhong, two Jiang Zhaohe, one Qi Baishi and one Huang Zhou.

But at this time, he hesitated again, and his expression seemed to be a little tangled and hesitant.

Huo Xin had been watching from the sidelines, and when he noticed the change in Ning Weimin's expression, he immediately came to ask.

"What's wrong? Why don't you pick? Have you picked enough?"

"Not yet. I just think, there's too much calligraphy here, and my favorite paintings are a little less. And it seems that there are not many things for Qi Baishi, Zhang Daqian, and Xu Beihong. Pan Tianshou, Chen Banding, Fu Baoshi, and Li Keran are also few. Don't worry, I'll have to choose ...... slowly."

Indeed, Ning Weimin came in a hurry today, but he brought a thousand dollars.

Finally came to this trip, of course, he hoped that the money could be used on the blade to buy the most worthwhile paintings to go back.

I'll talk about it later, if Ming'er is closed, who will he go to. Isn't it?

Unexpectedly, Huo Xin gave him a very unexpected solution.

"Hey, what should I do? Tell you, it's not nothing, in fact, there is a lot of Curry in the back. It's just that the previous painting has been sold, and no one has thought of putting a new one here. ”

"Don't pick here, in this case, I'll take you to find the person in charge here. I call her Aunt Liu. ”

"This man has a good relationship with my mother, and he knows my aunt well. If you can find her, how about she can take you to find whoever you want?"
