Chapter Forty-Eight: Unsure
Seeing this situation, Zhang Hanjiang took out his mobile phone from his pocket and made a call.
"Boss, just now a kid appeared with a painting of Li Keran, and we offered 1.3 million The kid didn't agree, muttering that it would be at least two million. ”
The person on the other end of the phone hummed and asked, "What about the people now?"
Zhang Hanjiang hesitated for a moment and replied, "I went to the Qunxian antique shop next to me." ”
"Well, the boss of Qunxian is up to one hundred and fifteen, and it won't be any higher, how is the quality of this painting?" The person on the other end of the phone seems to know a lot about the nearby shops.
Zhang Hanjiang said with great certainty: "It is considered a fine work, and the price will not be less than three million when it is put on the auction floor." ”
"Is it the right way?"
"I tried it just now, but this kid is full of confidence and doesn't eat us at all, but from that kid's words, the analysis is very correct, otherwise this kid wouldn't be able to swagger through the market with such fanfare. ”
"Okay, I see, I'll arrange it right away. ”
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Hanjiang, who was standing at the door, showed a smile on the corner of his mouth towards the high gate building of Tianrenju next to him, although their shop looks like a very ordinary store in an antique shop, in fact, the boss behind the scenes is Tianrenju. After Tianrenju opened such a big store, why did he want to build a small shop, of course, there are his own reasons.
On the surface, this small shop has nothing to do with Tianren Habitat, and even the employees working in the store don't know about this relationship.
The status of the Heavenly Habitat is outstanding, and some things in such a status are naturally difficult to do, such as there are some things of unknown origin, and the person who sells them will not find the Heavenly Habitat, and the Heavenly Habitat is not easy to take the initiative to find these things. Therefore, it is necessary to have a small shop like Tongjinzhai to get some things of unknown origin, and you can also get some people and news that appear on the street of this clothing market.
It's like the ancient emperor was high above, and he had to establish some secret service organizations that went deep into the people to obtain voices from the grassroots.
Today's everything is the most telling, Zhang Hanjiang saw Cao Mengde's painting and immediately notified the big man above the Heavenly Habitat, and the above had already prepared for Cao Mengde.
Zhang Hanjiang found a stool at the door, drank a cup of tea and waited, and after a short time, he saw Cao Mengde walking out of the Qunxian antique shop next to him, scolding and scolding, obviously not satisfied with the bid of Qunxian's boss. Then I saw Cao Mengde walking towards the distance, and when he passed by the gate of the Heavenly Habitat, he just glanced at it and didn't plan to go in, I don't know if he was worried that the store was too big and the price would not be high.
But Cao Mengde had just walked through the door, and suddenly a person walked out of the Heavenly Habitat and blocked his way.
"Hey, brother, wait a minute. ”
After hearing the voice, Cao Mengde turned to look at the person, a middle-aged man in his forties, who chased after him with a smile on his face.
"What are you doing?" Cao Mengde looked at the man, but didn't give him any good looks.
The man walked to Cao Mengde's side without any concern and said, "Brother, I'm the manager of the human settlement, my name is Shan Qun, do you have something to sell?"
Cao Mengde looked at the manager with a surprised look and said, "I have something to sell, how do you know that I am being watched?"
The middle-aged man named Shan Qun said with a smile: "Sir, don't get me wrong, our Yiyi Street is such a big place, if there are any good things, you will naturally know the news soon." ”
"Then what do you want to do?" Cao Mengde asked with a hint of caution.
Shan Qun laughed awkwardly and said, "Sir, look at what you said, you have something to sell, I intend to accept it, of course it's a cooperation." ”
Cao Mengde waved his hand after hearing this and said: "Hey, I don't need to think about it, I don't want to stay longer in your clothing market, you are all stingy ghosts, I only give so much money for such a good painting." ”
After speaking, Cao Mengde was about to leave, but he was directly stopped by the single group, and said: "Brother, what you said is so right, the people on this street are this problem, but our Tianrenju is different from them, you look at our door, is our Tianrenju like a stingy storefront." ”
"Your shop is still presentable. ”
Although Cao Mengde said this, he could still see in his eyes that he still didn't care.
The single group could naturally see it, and hurriedly said: "Brother, you are here, let's go in and talk, you can also take a rest, we can't buy and sell benevolence, right?" ”
Cao Mengde seemed to hesitate for a few times before he nodded and said, "Okay, I hope you can satisfy me." ”
Shan Qun was naturally happy, and then led the way very politely, and walked towards the Heavenly Habitat with Cao Mengde.
There was a smile on the corner of Shan Qun's mouth, but he didn't see that Cao Mengde, who was actually behind him, was also smiling, and even laughed even happier.
For three days, Sun Hancheng has been perfecting the calligraphy and painting of Li Keran that he painted, striving to be perfect, and Lao Cao has not been idle, he has been wandering around the clothing market, and he has already understood the clothing market.
This time, Lao Cao came out to sell paintings, and the two of them had already planned very carefully before they started to act.
The reason why Lao Cao entered the shop for the first time was Tongjin Pavilion was because he knew that this Tongjin Pavilion was the eyeliner of this heavenly residence.
Of course, this secret news is not known to everyone, and it still relies on the old farmer, and this kind of secret news is estimated to be known only to the old farmer.
The purpose of coming here is naturally to let the people of the Tongjin Pavilion spread the news to the ears of the upper echelons of the Heavenly Human Habitat.
Whether Lao Cao is in the Tongjin Pavilion or in the Qunxian Antique Shop, the posture he made is to let the people of Tianrenju know that there is a real fat sheep in the Yiyi Street, with real things in his hands.
So it is logical that the people of Tianrenju took the initiative to find him, although the transaction has not yet been concluded, but it is much better to let Tianrenju take the initiative to find him than to take the initiative to find the door, it can be said that the initiative is completely on Lao Cao's side.
The front is just a foreshadowing, and everything in the back is the point, maybe the vision of the appraiser at the small door on the street is not good, anyway, what they say is useless, only after the appraiser in the human curie has finished the appraisal on this day, can we know the success or failure of the matter.
Originally, this was supposed to be a very serious and nervous time, but Cao Mengde seemed to be relaxed, only the more relaxed he behaved, the more the group believed that the painting was real.
Tianrenju is worthy of being the number one big business in the country, the whole three-story building is their industry, it is really antique when you go inside, you can't even see what antique shop is, walk in as if you have traveled to ancient times, you are walking in a small building with a large family, it is completely the appearance of a rich and noble family, which is also the origin and characteristics of the name of Tianrenju.
It is said that as long as you walk into this heavenly habitat, all the furniture and furnishings you see, and everything placed in it, is an antique and can be sold as a commodity.
Shan Qun introduced Cao Mengde as he walked, and walked to a room on the second floor. There were already people in it who had already made tea, and there were a lot of various fruits on the table, and this hospitality was much better than in the Tongjin Pavilion just now.
"Sir, please take a seat, I'll go and ask our appraiser to come at once, and you can eat and drink as much as you like. ”
Cao Mengde was not polite, just sat on a chair like this, and did not seem to be nervous or uneasy at all.
Picked up the teacup on the table and drank it. Although it is also tea, but the tea of the human habitat on this day is too particular, Cao Mengde has also seen the world, and the tea in the cup turned out to be the best white silver needle.
He sniffed it with his nose, and there was a smell of osmanthus flowers, and he took a sip of it and was extremely refreshing, refreshing, and couldn't help but sigh that this day the human habitat is really strong, and it is not good to accept it.
After a while, Shan Qun led an old gentleman with gray hair to walk in, and first greeted Cao Mengde, who was naturally sensible, and directly handed his painting to Shan Qun and the old appraiser.
Although Shan Qun is a manager, it is obvious that the appreciation of antique calligraphy and painting is not ordinary, the two of them look carefully, and from time to time they will not snub Cao Mengde by saying a few words to Cao Mengde, obviously a sleek person, otherwise he would not be able to be the manager of this day of human settlement.
The old man looked carefully, Cao Mengde was drinking tea on the side and didn't even look at them, in fact, he was a little uneasy in his heart, and now he could only hope that Sun Hancheng's counterfeiting technology could still maintain the previous level.
But then again, no matter how good a person's psychological quality is, he can't help but make his heart beat faster when he knows it's fake and pretends to be identified.
The old man nodded and shook his head at Shan Qun after carefully looking at the painting, and then said, "It seems that it is indeed the work of Master Li Keran, but there are some doubts. ”
"What's the question?" asked Shan Qun, a little surprised.
This sentence also aroused Cao Mengde's idea, and he didn't know what the white-bearded old man had discovered.
The appraiser shook his head and said with a gloomy face, "I don't know, I don't know why I always feel that this painting is a little too good. ”
After listening to this, Shan Qun said with some displeasure on his face: "What are you talking about, why are you still too good, can we still be afraid of having good things in our antique shop?"
The appraiser was also a little embarrassed and said: "I'm a little unsure, or I'll go to Lao Li and them to have a look." ”
"Then go quickly. Shan Qun's face showed a hint of displeasure.
The appraiser turned around and left the room, and Shan Qun smiled at Cao Mengde and said, "Mr. Cao has been waiting for a long time, this old boy was shocked by your painting, and he didn't dare to draw conclusions." So you wait a minute. ”
Cao Mengde picked up an orange, stuffed the orange petal into his mouth, and said vaguely: "Whatever, I can wait for a while." ”
Shan Qun filled Cao Mengde's water cup with water again, and asked with a smile on his face; It looks like Mr. Cao is in a hurry to make a move?"
