in the hall.

All the invited guests gathered together, and it was very lively, mostly foreigners, mixed with a small number of Chinese.

James stood on the podium and looked around with an excited expression on his face.

"Good evening, everyone, I invite you to come here tonight, mainly to auction two masterpieces, one by Van Gogh and the other by the Twelve Heavenly Women. ”

James paused for a moment and continued: "These two paintings were commissioned by a certain gentleman, and I also asked a professional to see them. ”

When the words fell, the audience shook violently.

According to James's meaning, the Twelve Days Girl doesn't know whether it's true or not, but it will still be auctioned, and if you buy a fake at a high price, it will definitely be a blood loss.

"No, it's auctioned if you can't tell the real from the fake. ”

"Wouldn't it be too unreliable, this is a priceless famous painting. ”

"If Mr. James dares to vouch, maybe someone will buy it. ”

Everyone whispered, and they all thought James was too hasty.

James smiled and looked at the crowd.

"Don't worry, don't worry, today I specially invited the old man of the Ma family in the north to come over to help us identify, he is an expert in ancient paintings, the leading authority in China, only under Professor Lu of Yanjing, I believe he can give us a satisfactory answer. ”

Ma Lao smiled and took the initiative to walk on the rostrum.

"Rest assured, in my experience, as long as you see the picture, you can immediately distinguish the real from the fake, and the certificate issued by me will be compensated by our Ma family in full if it is fake. ”

After a while, two bodyguards came over with famous paintings.

James took the initiative to lift the black curtain, and the twelve celestial maidens stood in a row with different musical instruments in their hands.

Juan stood aside, excited.

"Song Li, that's it, you must help me buy it, if the money is not enough, even if I ask you to borrow it, I will definitely pay it back to you in the future." ”

Song Li smiled and looked at Juan.

"Young Master Hu, don't worry, I don't know if it's true or not, let Ma Lao identify it first. ”

Ma Lao rolled up his sleeves, and began to identify ancient paintings in full view.

He looked left and right, and even pulled out a magnifying glass, looking quite professional.

Ah Xiang stood aside and asked in a low voice: "Song Li, according to you, this painting is real, I can't tell whether it's true or not, I just think it's beautiful." ”

There are twelve heavenly girls in the picture, all of them have different postures, some are charming, some are delicate, the author has not missed any details, and the painting is quite good.

"Ah Xiang, do you know, the author of this painting is not famous, and he has not even left any traces in history, but this painting, the artistic conception is quite high, it was hung in the garden of Yanjing back then, and then the foreign devils came in, snatched it back, and once fell into Europe. ”

Ah Xiang seemed to understand whether she understood or not, and looked at Song Li.

"So what is so good about this painting, why does it have such a high value, even more valuable than Van Gogh's works. ”

Song Li smiled and pointed to his chest.

"Artistic conception, you can only understand it, soon, look at Ma Lao's expression, this painting should be genuine, you can buy it with confidence. ”

The two were talking, and Ma Lao really had a ruddy face.

"Mr. James, that's right, this is indeed a twelve-day female picture, if it's fake!"

James was overjoyed and nodded repeatedly.

As soon as he was about to speak, a person suddenly stood up in the crowd in the east, his expression was quite arrogant, and he looked like he was underbeaten.

This man is in his thirties, with a mustache and a pair of sneaky eyes.

He took a step forward and walked to the painting.

"Ma Lao, you are confused, you can't even see such an obvious fake painting, in vain you are still a generation of ancient masters, be careful that you are not guaranteed in the evening. ”

Before the man could finish speaking, Prince Halfa laughed and walked over to the man as well.

"Ma Lao, you are old, you can't even tell the truth from the fake, and what qualifications do you have to issue an appraisal certificate, it will only make people laugh and be generous. ”

Ma Ming was quite unhappy and looked at the two.

"What are you, what qualifications do you have to question my grandfather, he said that the truth is true, believe it or not. ”

Prince Hata shook his head and looked at the two of them.

"I don't think so, this is Mr. Aesop, an outstanding graduate of the Academy of Famous Paintings of the United States, who has studied famous paintings from all over the world, and even Professor Lu of your country has taken a fancy to him and plans to accept him as a closed disciple. ”

When the words fell, many people praised them.

Professor Lu is very imposing, not only at home but also abroad, and his willingness to accept Aesop as an apprentice is enough to prove his strength.

Aesop picked up the famous painting and looked at it twice, his eyes full of pride.

"Ma Lao, can I ask you, what are the Twelve Heavenly Female Figures, and what do they represent, if you can't even answer this, you won't be qualified at all. ”

The authentic work of the Twelve Heavens Girl has been missing for many years, and it can only be seen in old photographs outside, and there are very few people who study it naturally.

It's normal for Ma Lao to be confused.

Aesop is quite strong, and Ma Lao is red-faced, and he really can't answer this question.

"This, that......"

Ma Lao was hesitant and embarrassed.

Prince Hata was proud and looked at Song Li and the others.

"Hehe, fortunately I brought Aesop here, otherwise I would have been fooled by this old man and bought a fake to go back, and it would be too late to regret it. ”

Ma Lao's liver hurts, but he is helpless.

Seeing this, Aesop shook her head.

"Everyone, don't be deceived by this old man, this is an ordinary pirated lady's picture, there are flaws everywhere, it is not worth hundreds of millions at all, but the advantage is that the skill is very good, and it is also a good choice to buy it and hang it at home as a decoration. ”

Everyone sighed, they really didn't pay attention.

Song Li saw it in his eyes, sneered again and again, and took the initiative to attack.

"Wait a minute, I want to ask a question, if even Ma Lao is not qualified, then why is he qualified for identification, just by one mouth!"

Prince Hata didn't expect Song Li to come out, and hurriedly glanced at Aesop.

His purpose is very simple, he wants to take away the Twelve Heavenly Female Figures at a low price.

Aesop sneered and looked at Song Li.

"Who are you, and what qualifications do you have to question me, but I was born in a regular class in the United States, and I have complete qualifications, so when you are, what can you come up with. ”

Song Li spread his hands and looked at Aesop.

"Although I can't come up with anything, I can do two things, such as the first one, the Twelve Heavenly Maiden Diagram is an illusion diagram, which is to personify the twelve names of the Great Auspicious Heavenly Maiden, these twelve names are auspicious, auspicious, lotus flower strict ornament, Gu Cai, white, big name, lotus flower eye, great light, giver, drinker, treasure light, great auspicious, I don't know if what I said is right. ”

As the words fell, Isolt was stunned.

He couldn't believe his ears, Song Li, a layman, was right, and it was exactly the same as what Professor Lu told him.

"Song Li, you cheat, you can't possibly know!"

Aesop was annoyed, and her old face flushed.
