Chapter 614: Pu Jie, who eats deflated
"I'm so tired that I have to go back and rest. ”
Xu Jun still wanted to insist, but Yu Yao then refused even more simply, and he had to give up.
Yu Yao pondered for a while before going to bed at night, and always felt that something was wrong with the few people he met in Chang'an, from the old Tao Ye and the two to the fat and thin two, and even the old Xu. I don't know what's wrong, I just feel that something is wrong.
This Xu Jun feels relatively simple, just a walnut merchant and antique player.
But since he couldn't think clearly, Yu Yao didn't think much about it, in Chang'an, he was just a passerby, and he was over it.
After returning to Jiangzhou, Yu Yao first called Cai Pengxi, firstly, Cai Pengxi was the eldest among the heirs, and secondly, the communication between Yu Yao and Cai Pengxi had been relatively harmonious and smooth.
Yu Yao talked about the progress of Wuliang Mountain and Wang Mang's treasure, and after hearing it, Cai Pengxi felt that there was no need to let the heirs meet for the time being, so they could talk about it one by one and ponder it separately. Because the matter of Wang Mang's treasure is indeed more troublesome, a direct meeting may not have results.
Yu Yao didn't treat any of the heirs as outsiders, thinking that this was feasible. After hanging up the phone, he called Xiao Ying again, and Xiao Ying also felt that he could talk about it in advance. Yu Yao told them one by one.
Everyone's reaction to this matter is different, Cai Pengxi and Teng Kunwu's reactions are relatively stable, after all, they are already old people.
Lin Fengcao was surprised, but his interest was not very great, the difficulty of reality was one of the reasons, and the characteristics of his person were also one of the reasons.
Zhong Yu's reaction was not very intense, but he said that he would definitely go all out to figure it out, and as for the solution, you can think slowly.
Shangguan Yu was the one who reacted the most violently, which was very unexpected by Yu Yao. Shangguan Yu shouted directly, "There is really a treasure of Wang Mang!"
However, his reaction was mainly based on surprise and excitement, rather than wanting to dig out in the first place.
Yu Yao told everyone to think of their own way and meet again at the right time.
Yu Yao didn't go out that day, so he had a good rest at home.
The next day, Yu Yao got up very early and walked to Gegu Zhai. Originally, he thought it was early enough, but he saw that Pu Jie was already inside, smoking early in the morning.
"Why are you here so early?"
"Aren't you back? ”
"Are you letting people play a game? Or are you getting an eye-catcher?"
"It's all pretty much the same. Pu Jie did look depressed.
Yu Yao sat down and lit a cigarette, "Then you must be deflated!" ”
"I'll go, you're a big guy now!" Pu Jie pouted, "It's a matter of calligraphy and painting." ”
Yu Yao was stunned for a moment, "You dare to turn your calligraphy and painting upside down, you're a little bold!"
"Who's to say it isn't. Pu Jie then talked about the process.
Pu Jie often receives goods around Jiangzhou, so some of the errands and baggage are quite familiar with him, and he will call him if there is anything or news.
A while ago, a person with a burden told Pu Jie that there was a person in the suburban county who wanted to sell a painting, which was Zhong Kui Shenweitu, a painter Ren Bonian in the late Qing Dynasty.
Pu Jie came to his senses as soon as he heard this, what's the matter? Because there happened to be a hot pot city owner who asked him to buy a painting of Zhong Kui!
And this burden said that the reason why he confiscated it himself was because he had been short of money recently, and he could also earn a commission by notifying Pu Jie.
When Pu Jie arrived at this person's house, he was an old man, and the old man's hospitality was very thoughtful, and he also let Pu Jie see the painting, but when he was talking about the price, he grinded for a while, and said for a while that his wife had to spend money to see a doctor, and for a while he said that his son had to spend money to get married, and finally offered 200,000 yuan.
The size of this painting is not too large, one meter long and half a meter wide. To say that Ren Bonian is also a famous family, this price is not expensive.
But Pu Jie didn't know calligraphy and painting, and he couldn't make up his mind after reading it, so he agreed to come and see it the next day.
After going back, Pu Jie made an appointment with Huang Yongyi, the boss of Yimo Zhai, Lao Huang. Lao Huang has no problem looking at the painting, and he agreed to help him take a look.
Pu Jie and Lao Huang went together, Lao Huang looked at it, and first gave Pu Jie a positive look, which meant that there was a look.
Just as he was about to take a closer look, Lao Huang answered a phone call, saying that his son was fighting with someone at school and had a tooth knocked out.
Although Pu Jie doesn't know calligraphy and painting, he has been with Yu Yao for so long, and he can see the new and old in the frame, paper and ink.
In the end, Pu Jie pressed 20,000 yuan with great difficulty, and 180,000 yuan took the painting.
That night, Pu Jie asked the owner of the hot pot city to look at the paintings, and they also invited Pu Jie to have a hot pot meal in his own store.
After the owner of the hot pot restaurant saw this picture of Zhong Kui's divine power, he immediately liked it, especially Zhong Kui's posture of holding a sword in one hand and cocking one foot.
For this painting, Pu Jie earned 120,000 yuan, and 300,000 yuan was sold to the owner of the hot pot restaurant, and he felt happy. But within two days, people came to me and said that this was not Ren Bonian's real work, it was painted by a graduate student of Dongjiang Academy of Fine Arts!
This graduate student specializes in drawing characters, and Zhong Kui and Guan Gong are the best. Moreover, the Academy of Fine Arts has a small team of imitation paintings, with a division of labor and cooperation, some people paint figures, some people paint landscapes, some people paint flowers and birds, and so on.
This small team only imitates the works of famous artists from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, and does not imitate top masters such as Wu Changshuo and Qi Baishi, and they are quite good at playing.
It is said that you can't find a back account in this industry, but the owner of this hot pot restaurant is not from the industry, and people have moved out directly, and I don't know how to find out.
In the end, they also said, brother, I know you didn't mean it, maybe you also made a fool of yourself, so if you give me a few thousand less, it will be your hard work.
Pu Jie made a big red face, returned the original amount of 300,000 to others, took the painting and went to the Qixingqiao antique market Yimo Zhai.
Lao Huang took a closer look in the store, and then patted his thigh and said that some subtle places were not in place, and he just looked at them as a whole that day, and he didn't have time to take a closer look. However, this framed silk and paper and ink are all old materials in the late Qing Dynasty.
Lao Huang was quite embarrassed, but it was really a hurry that day, and Pu Jie didn't blame others. But Lao Huang has been carefully identified for the second time, which means that it should be a high imitation.
When Yu Yao heard this, he frowned, "I said, what is the name of that old man with baggage?"
"It's not his game. Pu Jie waved his hand, "He is also on the way." ”
"Are you sure?"
"Well, I checked that old household later. ”
"That's the bureau made by the old man of the shipper?"
"Probably so. Pu Jie lit another cigarette, "But there is no way to find a post-account for this matter, and they said at the time that they bought it by themselves in the antique market, and the price is that price, and the authenticity is not guaranteed." ”
"Emphasize this in advance, then it will definitely be a game. Yu Yao sneered, "Is it popular to play a new way to play now?"
"Why don't I know about this small team of imitation painting in the Academy of Fine Arts?" Pu Jie snorted twice.
"Is that there? I'll take a look at it first. Yu Yao raised his hand.
