Chapter 54: Killing
None of you here are stupid people, and after a little thought of Cai Yongguang's words, you can probably guess something. Unexpectedly, Ma Yuan's authentic handiwork, which was unanimously favored by everyone, actually had a kid who didn't have any hair and said that it was a fake, isn't this a big joke in the world?
No one noticed that after the man in the tunic sitting in the corner heard Cai Yongguang's words, his gaze at Wei Xiu suddenly flashed with a gleam.
The name of this man in the tunic is Zhou Pojun, but his master picked him up when he watched the stars at night, pinched his fingers and calculated that he belonged to one of the dozens of four main stars of Ziwei Dou.
Speaking of this week's breaking army, there is naturally another story. However, after this person suffered an accident, he washed his hands and relied on the money earned by the inverted bucket to start a legitimate business. It's probably because his life is too good, he broke the army, didn't want this business to get bigger and bigger, and became a generation of wealthy businessmen.
It's just that this inverted fighting technique is deeply rooted in his bones, so he still can't help but get in touch with the antique industry. Don't look at his lack of knowledge of the antique system, but he has a lot of experience in this inverted fight, but he has developed his amazing sense of smell. Newly unearthed antiques always have a stench of human corpses, which is like a wisp of stench that ordinary people can't smell, but Zhou Pojun must be able to detect it within a zhang.
What does this mean? This shows that this landscape painting is not the harvest of this gang of shoveling the ground, but obtained from other sources, so the authenticity of this painting is naturally questionable?
Maybe someone is deliberately taking advantage of this inverted incident to take advantage of the fact of stealing a large tomb to give people an illusion, launder this fake, and then enter the regular auction house in a grand manner!!
At this time, Wei Xiu was stunned, he really didn't expect that his kind persuasion of Boss Sang would cause Cai Yongguang's hatred!
Boss Sang was obviously very surprised that Mr. Cai actually said this, glanced at Wei Xiu, and saw that Wei Xiu's expression was as usual, and he was slightly relieved in his heart and hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, Mr. Cai, I don't blame Brother Wei for this, it's because I didn't prepare well and didn't bring enough cash, so I didn't have to ride a tiger." ”
Seeing Boss Sang taking things on himself, Cai Yongguang sighed with hatred, and that sigh made Boss Sang, who had always been good-tempered, feel a trace of displeasure in his heart.
In the final analysis, he is the invitee in this auction, and you Cai Yongguang are just the treasure connoisseurs I invited, just do your own job of appreciating treasures, whether to buy or not is my business, you have such an attitude, this is to be anti-customer-oriented?
No, Cai Yongguang suddenly gritted his teeth and said: "Boss Sang, if you don't want to take the risk, can you lend me half of the cash, I want to take a picture of this Ma Yuan's real handiwork!!"
Boss Sang was stunned, and after thinking about it, it was difficult to refuse, so he nodded and agreed.
Unexpectedly, this Cai Yongguang is really a talent, and he actually left his seat to find an acquaintance to raise cash.
In other words, most of the people present are people from Qinghe City or wealthy businessmen whose business is rooted in Qinghe City, and most of them are people who love antiques, so they naturally know the appraiser of the auction house more or less. After considering that they couldn't auction this antique at all because of their own amount of cash, many people chose to lend half of their cash to Cai Yongguang for auction!
It's just that this kind of lending, after a short discussion by several businessmen, has developed into a kind of shareholding. That is, if you take this Ma Yuan landscape painting, this painting is jointly owned by all investors, and whether it is sold or collected is also discussed by many shareholders!
Because of Cai Yongguang's small actions, everyone present knew that Boss Sang suddenly withdrew from the auction, and it was because the young people around him said that this ancient painting was a fake, which prompted Cai Yongguang's fundraising bid.
So many people inquired about the names of the young people around Boss Sang, and after learning that it was called "Wei Xiu", they secretly wrote down in their hearts that they were waiting to see the jokes, or waiting to see the jokes that Boss Sang listened to the bullshit and didn't understand the words of young people, and missed good things!!
The auction below suddenly became fierce, perhaps because Cai Yongguang, a well-known treasure connoisseur, participated in the bidding, and the extremely wealthy people were also beaten out of the real fire.
The price is getting higher and higher, and it is climbing higher and higher like spring bamboo shoots.
Helplessly, the ants bit the elephant to death, and everyone gathered firewood and the flame was high, this Ma Yuan's authentic work was finally auctioned by Cai Yongguang at a sky-high price of 1.68 million!!
For a while, the people who invested in the shares were in high spirits, and they had reason to believe that after the commercial operation of this Ma Yuan's authentic work was whitewashed, it would definitely be able to fetch a higher price than this!!
Many people looked at Boss Sang and Wei Xiu's eyes, which already revealed a trace of sarcasm and playfulness.
Boss Sang saw this scene in addition to a bitter smile or a bitter smile, hoping that the identity of this Wei Xiu was enough to surprise him, otherwise this time the old face would be a big loss.
In the following lots, there is no one that exceeds the authentic work of Ma Yuan, but a red silk stone inkstone of the four treasures of the study was auctioned for a high price of 360,000 yuan! The red silk stone inkstone, known for its dense stone quality and red, yellow and purple colors, has been discovered since the Tang Dynasty, and it is said that it was mined out at the end of the Song Dynasty.
The price of this red silk stone inkstone at 560,000 is absolutely unyielding, if it is not a gray transaction here, it may be really difficult for 360,000 yuan to win this red silk stone inkstone.
However, Wei Xiu then shot six times, only twice, one is a funeral square bronze mirror, the edge of the mirror is carved with a rather delicate pattern, but the preservation is a little improper, the patina is extremely heavy, half of the copper mirror can no longer see the original appearance, and the other is a carved tomb brick.
The former spent 30,000 yuan on Wei Xiu, and the latter only spent 10,000 yuan. It is a lot that is almost uncontested.
Boss Sang also asked Wei Xiu's opinion and won a set of Song porcelain printed folk kiln tea sets, which was worth the trip.
As the sun set, the gray trade finally ended in a distorted boom, and after the money and goods were delivered, everyone was ready to leave one by one.
Because they left in batches, it was inevitable that some people would gather in front of the board room to boast to each other about the treasures they had photographed, especially Cai Yongguang and his group, who won the bid king, were even more excited and smiling, and were complimented by a group of businessmen.
Cai Yongguang was rarely praised by a group of wealthy businessmen, and his arrogant face couldn't help but blush with pride, and he said with great interest: "Don't worry, I will contact my friends in Yanjing as soon as I go back to this Ma Yuan landscape painting, do the most authoritative appraisal, and guarantee to give you a satisfactory answer!"
"Okay, good, Mr. Cai is worthy of being the treasure master of our Qinghe antique circle, this Yan Kyoto has friends, we are waiting for Mr. Cai's good news!!" a businessman laughed excitedly.
"Yanjing is good, aren't the most authoritative institutions in the world all in Yanjing? It's reassuring to go to that appraisal, Mr. Cai, you can go to the appraisal with peace of mind, and we will set up a banquet and wait for you to celebrate!"
A group of people seemed to have affirmed that Ma Yuan's landscape painting was genuine, and they were already very sure when they opened and closed their mouths, and even said words of celebration.
Cai Yongguang seemed to be also stunned by this group of unlearned businessmen, and when he caught a glimpse of Boss Sang standing not far away, he said with a smug face: "Speaking of which, I can win this treasure, and I really thank Boss Sang for quitting the competition." Otherwise, how can Boss Sang have a chance for us to make a move? However, Boss Sang allows me to say more, this antique appreciation is about experience and eyesight, and it is a good thing for young people to be timid and cautious, but if you don't make a move when you should shoot, you will miss the baby in vain. ”
Cai Yongguang's words are not crazy, and Boss Sang was angry when he heard it, and his face was blue. This simply refers to Sang scolding Huai that he listened to the words of the timid young man and missed the treasure.
What kind of appraiser are you at a small auction house? How dare you teach me a lesson? The wealth of Lao Tzu's little finger is enough for your poor scholar to eat for a lifetime! But when you buy an antique and become so rampant, do you really think that those merchants really compliment you?
They compliment you only because you can bring them benefits and honors, and it would be strange if they didn't skin you alive when they found out that the landscape painting was fake!!
Just when Boss Sang's heart was agitated, Wei Xiu suddenly said: "I'm just suggesting a few words, whether Boss Sang buys it or not, it's his freedom, the treasure connoisseur you hired by one family relies on the old and sells the old, and the mouth chatters non-stop, are you really sure that what you buy is the real handiwork of Ma Yijiao?"
Speaking of this, Wei Xiu took a deep breath and said: "It's better to be like this, let's make a bet, if this landscape painting is really Ma Yuan's authentic work, I will lose you a million, if you lose ......"
Cai Yongguang was simply annoyed by Wei Xiu's sentence "relying on the old and selling the old, nagging and talking non-stop", and immediately scolded: "Okay, you stinky boy, you are really arrogant and ignorant." Okay, bet, bet, if I lose, I will lose you a million!!"
"Okay, I wonder if any of you present would like to come forward to testify?" Wei Xiu looked up and said to the surroundings.
This kind of bet is simply popular with everyone, and naturally they have vouched to testify.
Boss Sang even came over and asked in a low voice, "Brother Wei, how sure are you about this matter?"
Wei Xiu smiled slightly and said: "Seventy percent, that landscape painting should be an antique, but it is definitely not Ma Yuan's work!"
"Seventy percent, that's enough! I'm also a witness!!" Boss Sang's voice suddenly raised in the second half of the sentence and announced to everyone.
Immediately, this verbal gambling contract was agreed in this way, and it was not just a verbal gambling contract, but the fact that so many wealthy businessmen present testified was to a certain extent more effective than the law! Businessmen valued profits and credibility. In order to maintain their reputation, this group of wealthy businessmen will definitely spare no effort to implement the gambling contract.
If anyone dares to break the contract, Qinghe City may not want to set foot in this life.
Gambling agreement, Wei Xiu's eyes immediately left Cai Yongguang, as if he was just an insignificant little person.
As Wei Xiu experienced more and more things, and saw more and more big people, the bearing on this body was naturally slowly cultivated. This kind of thing, he didn't care.
But looking at this Cai Yongguang is like a nerd, he doesn't understand the world at all, and he shoots the baby and shoots the baby! I don't know how to dare to lose the face of the boss of Sang, isn't this also losing his face? If you don't kill your prestige, I really think that the antique world is the world of a group of old things! !
At this time, a van started slowly, staggering towards the steel forest in the distance, and suddenly from the car window came an ethereal Kunqu opera singing: "I only let you say a few words, then you can rely on the old and sell the old, and you can't talk about it." Then you will grow some beards, and I will ignore you......"
The voice babbling sounded a little laughable, but the tone seemed to reveal an unclear meaning, which was meaningful, and many businessmen looked at Cai Yongguang with meaningful eyes.
"Who's singing this?" someone asked.
"Listen to the voice, it should be Zhou Pojun and Boss Zhou?"
"Xie Jinwu deceitfully demolished Qingfeng Mansion, this is Xie Jinwu's tune......" An old businessman who was dressed quite elegantly said, and hummed with his eyes slightly closed as he spoke: "I am here on the order of the saint, and if you scold me, you will scold the holy decree." What sin do you deserve to scold the Holy Decree?"
Cai Yongguang's face was pale, everyone was dumbfounded, and Wei Xiu smiled.
