Chapter 680: Uninvited Guest
Lu Menglin got up and walked to the door, and stretched out his hand to open the door.
Outside the door stood two men, one of whom was wearing an ill-fitting suit with cuffs covering the back of his hands, and a smile on his face that looked a little funny.
The other one is wearing a purple Tang costume, with white beard and white hair, and he looks quite fairy-like and extraordinary.
"Who are you looking for?" Lu Menglin glanced at it, the aura of these two people was weak, and they were ordinary people, so he didn't care too much and asked.
The middle-aged man in a suit one size bigger smiled and said, "May I ask Lu Youshan, is Mr. Lu at home?"
Hearing that the other party could call out his father's name, Lu Menglin nodded and shouted casually: "Dad, someone is looking for you!"
Lu Youshan stood up and strode to the door.
Lu Menglin turned sideways and stepped out of the passage, allowing his father to take a look at the two of them.
"It's Mr. Li! Have you two eaten? The family is eating, just add a pair of chopsticks. As soon as Lu Youshan saw that this person recognized him, he asked with a big grin.
The middle-aged man who was called Mr. Li by Lu Youshan hurriedly shook his head and smiled: "I've eaten, I've eaten, Mr. Lu doesn't have to be polite! ”
"Master of Hong Kong Island?" When Lu Menglin heard this, he suddenly became a little interested, and sat back at the dining table silently.
Lu Youshan was also slightly stunned, and said with a smile: "Who is this master?"
The old man in Tang costume standing behind Mr. Li didn't say a word, just glanced at Lu Youshan with his eyes, his face was still full of arrogance, and he looked like a very difficult kind of person to deal with.
Mr. Li, who was wearing a large suit, hurriedly introduced: "This is Mr. Fang Daqian from Hong Kong Island, he is the chief appraiser of Cushman & Wakefield, the largest auction house on Hong Kong Island. This time, I asked Mr. Fang Daqian to come to do an appraisal for you!"
Lu Youshan's eyes lit up when he heard this, he nodded again and again, and said loudly to his wife: "Chunqin, clean up the living room, I'll talk to the master." ”
When Lu's mother saw the guests, she hurriedly cleaned up the dining table, and Lu Menglin and Su Xuechen also helped, this picture looks quite harmonious, as if there are a pair of children in the family.
After a while, Lu Youshan sat down with Mr. Li and Master Fang Daqian he brought, and Lu Menglin and Su Xuechen also sat side by side with a small bench.
Lu Youshan is very satisfied with the posture of his son and prospective daughter-in-law, because this gives him enough face as a father.
Since Lu Menglin began to rise in his third year of high school, along the way, everything has gone smoothly, and he has completely replaced his position as the pillar of the family, although the family does not say it, but others think that he Lu Youshan is a father and a son are expensive, and envy him for giving birth to a good son.
Although Lu Youshan is not jealous of his son, the dignity of the old man still wants to be defended.
Now his son and girlfriend don't take the initiative to get involved in his affairs, and sit obediently and wait for him to make decisions, which makes Lu Youshan feel that he still has a lot of status in this family!
"Mr. Lu, without further ado, take out your treasured "Fuchun Mountain Residence Map" and ask Master Fang to give you a palm?" Mr. Li said with a smile.
Lu Youshan nodded, got up and walked into the bedroom with joy, leaving his son to accompany the two of them.
Obviously, neither this Mr. Li nor the Master Fang who claimed to be from Hong Kong Island recognized Lu Menglin's true identity.
Although it is rumored in the outside world that Lu Youshan, the director of the Liufang Factory, gave birth to a unicorn, and in just a few years, he broke into a huge family business and became one of the richest, but no one has been able to do so in the past two years
There is a son who has really seen him.
Moreover, Lu Youshan and his wife have been staying in Liufang and still live in a dilapidated house in the factory, which makes those so-called rumors less true.
Even if it is Liufang's current game theme park project, the leader is not Lu Youshan's son, and he is mainly responsible for communicating with local authorities, but he is not the first person to speak.
Based on these signs, both Mr. Li and Master Fang regarded Lu Menglin and Su Xuechen as juniors of the Lu family and didn't care.
Soon, Lu Youshan took out an ancient painting from the bedroom, about 600 centimeters long, spread it on the table, and slowly unfolded it.
Everyone in the living room stared intently at the picture.
The picture scroll takes the mountains and rivers as the scenery, the ink is light and elegant, the arrangement of the mountains and the water is dense and sparse, and the ink color is used both dry and wet, making every effort to change.
A long scroll of landscapes, including the changes from summer to autumn, the first section is the color of summer, and the latter section appears the autumn scenery, containing the meaning of distant mountains, clouds and mountains, and green mountains.
The painting is not a landscape, but it is not a landscape, and there is a faint meaning of the rise and fall of dynasties, and the passage of time is contained in it.
Lu Menglin, as a master in the world, entered the Tao with martial arts, although he did not deliberately learn the appreciation of calligraphy and painting, he could also touch the bypass, looking at its shape and being able to look at it, he couldn't help but nod his head again and again.
And that Master Fang Daqian took out a magnifying glass with a broad and elegant shape from his arms, grabbed his long beard in one hand and held the magnifying glass in the other, and put his head on the picture scroll.
"Not bad! Not bad! Very good!" This three times in a row was good, muttering from Master Fang's mouth, and hearing Lu Youshan's eyebrows dancing next to him, full of interest.
"There are images of fishing, wood, ploughing, and reading in the painting, which are wonderful and vivid, and it is difficult to achieve it without the master's handwriting. The white-bearded Master Fang raised his head after a long time and said solemnly.
That Mr. Li was suddenly overjoyed, and he arched his hand at Lu Youshan and said, "Mr. Lu, congratulations, congratulations!"
Lu Youshan was also very happy, and he couldn't keep his mouth shut.
"Wait a minute! The old man is not completely sure that this is the real thing. May I ask this Mr. Lu, where did you get this painting?" Master Fang asked with a blank face, staring at Lu Youshan's eyes.
Lu Youshan didn't feel embarrassed at all, and said with a big grin: "The origin of this painting is innocent, I bought it for six hundred yuan." ”
Speaking of this, Lu Youshan added: "Actually, that's what happened! I went to the township to participate in poverty alleviation activities, walked more than 30 miles of mountain roads, and went to the village on the mountainside to visit the old military dependents.
On the way back, I felt a little sick to my stomach, so I separated from the group, found a place for myself to make it easier, and then let me run into two young men with snakeskin bags on their backs. ”
"When I saw that the two young men were about the same age as my son, I chatted with them and went out into town together.
The two of them told me that they were high school classmates, one was admitted to university, the other was not, but the family had no money, one had no tuition for school, and the other had no travel expenses for part-time work. ”
When Lu Youshan said this, Mother Lu had already begun to sneer, what she meant was, you Lu Youshan is a fool, and this kind of thing can happen to you?
"However, the two children were so angry that they didn't ask me for money, so they asked me if I could treat them to a bowl of noodles. Lu Youshan said with a smile.
"And then?" Lu Menglin listened with relish, and couldn't help but say something.
Lu Youshan nodded and said with a smile: "Then I'll invite them."
Eating, those two boys seemed to be really hungry, each of them ate two large bowls of shredded meat noodles, and even drank the soup and water cleanly!"
"Lao Lu, don't go into too much detail, what is going on with this painting? Does it have anything to do with those two poor boys?" Mr. Li couldn't help but ask.
Lu Youshan nodded, and said with a smile: "After eating, those two boys said that they wanted to thank me and give me something." I took out this painting. ”
"Ah, is that okay?" Mr. Li was dumbfounded and surprised.
That Master Fang had a masterful demeanor, nodding slightly, and seemed to approve of Lu Youshan's character.
"Of course I won't take it! Asking them to take it back is just a few bowls of noodles, not a painting. Lu Youshan said with a smile.
"And then?" this time, even Lu's mother was not calm, and asked with a look of surprise.
Then they told me that the two of them had done a great job to make up for the tuition! They had dug up a grave in the mountains during a thunderstorm in the middle of the night! The painting, and the stuff in their sacks, had all been dug up from the tomb. Lu Youshan said with a leisurely face.
"Ancient tombs, so it is, so it is!" Mr. Li shook his head and said yes again and again.
If the painting had been dug up from an ancient tomb, the chances of it being authentic were much greater.
"What about the two of them?" Lu Menglin asked curiously.
Lu Youshan said with a smile: "I thought about it, it is better to be a good person to the end, so I went to the town bank and withdrew 600 yuan and bought this painting." ”
"At that time, when I bought paintings, I didn't think about whether it was real or fake, but I felt that it was not easy for these two children in the mountains, and it was nothing to do them a favor, just a few hundred yuan. So the painting was left in my hand. Lu Youshan said with a smile.
Lu Menglin thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Dad, when did you buy this painting?"
Lu Youshan smiled: "That's a few years, you were still in elementary school at that time!"
When everyone heard this, they were in awe.
When Lu Menglin went to elementary school, it should be in the late 80s and early 90s, and 600 yuan at that time was not a small amount.
You must know that even in the most glorious era of Liufang state-owned enterprises, dual-income families like Lu Youshan and Chunqin had an income of about 200 yuan a month.
Lu Youshan took out the deposit at the bottom of the box and helped two young people who had never known each other to buy this painting, which was really a righteous move.
Even Su Xuechen on the side could listen to it, and couldn't help but think, no wonder Lu Menglin has such a great ability, it turns out that he is a tiger father without a dog!
With such a chivalrous and righteous father, it is not surprising that he can give birth to a son like Lu Menglin.
In this way, Lu Youshan's collection of "Toyama Spring Residence" is really likely to be genuine.
At this time, the master of Fang Daqianfang finally nodded, probably very satisfied with the origin of this ancient painting, and said calmly: "Mr. Lu, do you know how valuable this painting is?"
Lu Youshan shook his head and said with a smile: "I really don't know this, and it's not a mixed calligraphy and painting circle." ”
Master Fang slowly stretched out a finger and stared at him intently.
"10,000? It should be more than 100,000, it won't be 100,000, right?" Lu Youshan said in surprise.
Master Fang shook his head expressionlessly.
"A million, won't it!" This time it was Lu Youshan's turn to be taken aback, and he sneered.
Master Fang still shook his head very firmly, and said lightly: "I have to add another zero!"
