Because Chen Yunhan turned on the hands-free button, Huang Jianli and Lao Li listened to Teacher Xia's words word for word.

As soon as Chen Yunhan hung up the phone, Huang Jianli's eyes lit up, and he couldn't wait to ask Shi Xiaolin: "Miss Shi, do you want to sell this painting?" If you want to sell it, the price is negotiable. ”

Shi Xiaolin glanced at Tang Xin with a grateful gaze, hesitated for a moment, and replied, "I'm in debt now, of course I want to sell." However, I can't set the price, and I want to consult a few more knowledgeable friends before making a move. ”

At this time, Huang Jianli was determined to acquire this ancient painting with extremely high collection value and great appreciation potential, so he said very generously: "Miss Shi, let me think so: according to the current market price of Wen Zhengming's genuine paintings, this painting can be sold for more than 15 million yuan under normal circumstances. But because the literary and historical value of this painting is very high, we will double the price of it according to the suggestion given by Mr. Xia, how about 30 million yuan?"

Shi Xiaolin thought about it for a while: if the painting is sold for 30 million yuan, plus the rest of the collection is sold for 3 or 4 million yuan, basically all the debts can be paid off, and the villa should not be sold.

So, she nodded and said, "Okay, but after the agreement is signed, I need to make a lump sum payment." ”

"Okay, you provide me with a bank account number, and I'll pay you the full price on the computer later." ”

After the two sides negotiated, Shi Xiaolin said to Chen Yunhan: "Hanhan, I will go upstairs with Mr. Huang and Mr. Li to sign an agreement to transfer money, and you accompany Mr. Tang to sit in the living room." After the transaction is completed, I invite you to a seafood dinner. ”

After Shi Xiaolin, Huang Jianjian, and Lao Li hurriedly went upstairs, Chen Yunhan made a cup of tea for Tang Xin familiarly, and said with a smile: "Mr. Tang, you earned 30 million yuan for Sister Lin today, so that she got out of the predicament all of a sudden." She is a grateful person, and if you come to her for anything in the future, she will definitely spare no effort to help. ”

Tang Xin smiled and waved his hand and said, "The effort of raising your hands is not enough to worry about." ”

Chen Yunhan asked a little curiously: "At the audition site in the morning, when Mr. Jin Yiming wanted to take you as an apprentice, you said that you only studied in the second grade of primary school and were not worthy of being his apprentice, is this true or a prevarication?

Tang Xin's face showed a hint of loneliness, and he pondered for a while before saying: "Miss Chen, I can't hide it: I am an outcast, abandoned by my parents since I was a child, and after being adopted, I was abused and tortured, I ran away from my adoptive family at the age of eleven and wandered on the street, and at the age of sixteen, I was taken in by my master and worked as an apprentice in Gu Xinzhai on the antique street.

"Because I feel that the cultural foundation is too poor, so after arriving at Gu Xinzhai, I began to use my spare time to study hard, in addition to learning junior high school and high school courses, but also hard to learn traditional culture and historical knowledge, and finally have a little cultural reserves, when talking about antique calligraphy and painting with others, it will not be ugly. As for you saying that I am very knowledgeable and have a good knowledge of literature and history, I don't dare to take this comment seriously. ”

Chen Yunhan didn't expect this sunny and handsome boy to have such a bumpy life experience, but he didn't become gloomy and depressed because of this experience, and his goodwill and admiration for him increased a little more, and he said sincerely: "Mr. Tang, I can see that you are a resolute and optimistic man who does not yield to fate, and you have magical skills, and you will definitely have a bright future in the future." ”

Tang Xin didn't want to continue to discuss this kind of topic with her, so he got up and said, "Miss Chen, let's go to the backyard of the villa to have a look." I'm not afraid of your jokes, I'm so big, it's the first time I've come to this kind of luxury villa!"

Chen Yunhan hurriedly led him through the back door of the living room and into the garden in the backyard.

This backyard is planted with many precious flowers and trees, and in the middle stands a rockery, from which a trickle of water flows into the pool below.

To Tang Xin's surprise, all the stones piled up on the rockery were some jade rough stones. Most of these rough stones have been cut, revealing a hint of red or green jadeite waterline, which looks beautiful and dazzling.

Seeing Tang Xin's face full of surprise, Chen Yunhan explained to him with a smile: "Sister Lin's husband Cai Haixing likes to gamble on stones, and these jade rough stones on the rockery are all worthless waste products after he cut them, and they are just used to decorate this rockery, which can be regarded as waste utilization!"

Tang Xin nodded, staring at a large rough stone in the center of the rockery, and asked a little strangely: "Why is there no trace of cutting in that largest jade rough stone?"

"I asked Sister Lin, and she said that the big rough stone was transported back by Cai Haixing from Yingjiang, Yunnan, and it was also a piece of mountain material from Lao Hpakant, Myanmar. However, there was no green color on the shell of this mountain material, and someone opened a deep opening to explore it, but no green was found, so it was discarded in the raw material yard.

At that time, Cai Haixing was renovating the villa, and the rockery in the garden needed a large stone as a pillar. The shape of this rough stone is relatively regular, which is suitable for making rockery pillars. So, when he bought the jadeite rough, he transported the worthless stone home piece by piece and piled it up on the rockery. ”

Tang Xin stared at the rough stone for a few moments, then stepped over a low railing, walked to the front of the rockery, stretched out his palm with a ring, and touched the rough stone.

At this moment, many images suddenly appeared in front of his eyes. At the same time, the shell of this rough stone was peeled back layer by layer, revealing the innermost layer of green jadeite as crystal clear as glass.

The most amazing thing is that there is a trace of blood-like color in this green mass, which looks extremely beautiful.

In an instant, Tang Xin judged that this rough stone, which was regarded as waste, was wrapped in a ball of fine glass green jadeite. Moreover, in this green jadeite, there is also a blood-like color, which increases the value of this jadeite......

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion in the living room. Then, a rough voice shouted: "Shi Xiaolin, where are you hiding? Come out for Lao Tzu! You must move out of the villa tonight, otherwise don't blame Lao Tzu for being rude!"

Tang Xin was a little familiar when he heard this voice, and he didn't care about studying the rough stone carefully, so he hurriedly ran into the living room with Chen Yunhan, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the person who was blushing and roaring was Li Tao, who was lending usury in the antique market.

On Li Tao's left, there stood Dai Xiaojun, the boss of Rongyuanzhai who Tang Xin hated bitterly, and there were several other big men who were like wolves and tigers, who were probably thugs raised by Li Tao.

Because the sound insulation effect of the upstairs study is better, Shi Xiaolin and the others did not hear Li Tao's roar for the first time.

Seeing that they were menacing, Chen Yunhan yelled as soon as he entered the house, and couldn't help but ask angrily: "Who are you? Why do you break into a private mansion and make a fuss?"
