Chapter 109: Coming in one after another
PS: Thank you for the tips of "Gamer 171819" and "2. Forcing Xiao Youth"!
"It seems that this group of people will not stop until they achieve their goal!"
Seeing the third child's aggressive posture, Meng Zitao knew that he couldn't avoid this matter today, because even if he found a reason not to value, the other party would spread the matter.
At that time, it will be okay to say to those who know him, and he will definitely not take the words of these people seriously. But there is a way that three people become tigers, if you don't know him, you will really think that his level is limited, and that will definitely have a great impact on his reputation. And this, it is very likely that this is the purpose of the three brothers.
Recognizing the current situation, Meng Zitao was no longer polite, and said lightly: "If it is Yun Shouping's other works, there is no problem for me to help you estimate it, but what about your ......?"
Hearing this, the brothers were stunned, and then, a hint of joy quickly flashed in the eldest eye, and the second brother glared angrily at Meng Zitao: "Boy, you mean to say that there is a problem with our family's ancestral painting!"
Meng Zitao shrugged his shoulders: "You said this yourself!"
The third child pointed at Meng Zitao and said, "Boy, we are not stupid, we can hear the meaning of your words." I'm telling you, if you don't make it clear today, it's not over!"
The second child took over and said: "That's it, if you don't give us an explanation, don't blame me for being rude!"
Meng Zitao sneered: "What kind of unkind method are you going to say, let's hear it?"
"Yo, little rabbit, you're going to toast and don't eat, eat and drink!"
As he spoke, the third child stepped forward and pushed Meng Zitao with his hand, but he felt a huge rebound force coming, and under the influence, the whole person actually took a few steps back, which shocked the old three, and the eyes of the two brothers next to him also flashed with surprise.
Meng Zitao sneered: "It seems that you are planning to do it?"
Judging from the performance of the third child just now, Meng Zitao is not very easy to get along with, and besides, they have no intention of doing it.
So, the boss hurriedly became a peacemaker, glared at the brothers, turned around and said with a smile: "Boss, harmony makes money! There is no grudge between us, so why embarrass everyone?"
Meng Zitao pouted and smiled: "It seems that it wasn't my hand that moved first just now, right?"
The boss laughed and said, "My brother is indeed a little anxious, and I hope you can take care of the previous matter." However, I hope you can understand that this painting has been passed down in my family for many years after all, and even if there is a problem with the thing, please explain it clearly. Otherwise, if someone asks about this painting, we can only 'tell the truth'. ”
When he said 'tell the truth', he also deliberately accentuated his tone, and the meaning of the warning was self-evident.
The second child took over the words, and said in a weird manner: "These days, business is not easy to do!"
Meng Zitao sneered in his heart, and said lightly: "For me, it's nothing to explain, but if someone doesn't believe it, isn't it in vain?"
The boss laughed and said: "We are all reasonable people, if it is reasonable, how can we not believe it, but if it is nonsense......"
As soon as his words fell, Mencius saw two people walking into the store, one was a middle-aged man, dressed like a boss, this person Meng Zitao had never seen before, and the other, who looked to be in his fifties and was short and fat, this person was the owner of Baoguzhai not far from Mencius Tao's shop, named Wei Xingyun.
Although they are all peers on the same street, Meng Zitao and Wei Xingyun are not familiar with each other, and Wei Xingyun's shop is closed for almost half of the year, and I don't know what Wei Xingyun is doing in the past half a year.
Because he didn't have any friendship, Meng Zitao didn't understand how Wei Xingyun could come to him, and the time was so coincidental, it was difficult for him not to think about the situation in front of him.
Seeing that Meng Zitao and his brothers were a little tense, Wei Xingyun looked a little strange, but he didn't ask much, said hello to Meng Zitao, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Meng, are you convenient now?"
Meng Zitao thought for a moment, then replied with a smile: "Shopkeeper Wei, what do you say?" ”
Wei Xingyun said: "That's the case, my friend wants to find an inkstone from the Republic of China, I don't know if you have it." ”
Meng Zitao said: "There is an inkstone, but I don't know if this gentleman wants to ......."
"Wait. ”
The third child interrupted and said, "This business also has a first-come-first-come, first-come, let's not settle our matter first." And these two are just witnesses, aren't they?"
When Wei Xingyun heard this, he said with some displeasure: "Why are you involved in our affairs?"
The boss hurriedly said: "This boss, my brother can't speak, I hope you can forgive me." Mainly, there is no trust between the two of us, so I want to ask you to be a witness, I don't know if it is convenient for you?"
Seeing that the boss said this, Wei Xingyun looked at Meng Zitao with some hesitation.
Meng Zitao smiled and said, "Shopkeeper Wei, if it is convenient for you, please do me a favor, it should not delay you for too long." ”
Wei Xingyun, the boss who came with him, whispered a few words, and then asked, "Shopkeeper Meng, take the liberty of asking, I don't know what problems exist between you?"
The second child couldn't wait to say: "He said that there is a problem with our family's ancestral Yun Shouping's "Jiuzhi Map". ”
"Yun Shouping's painting?" The boss who followed Wei Xingyun over, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The third said indignantly: "Yes, we don't know how many years this painting has been transmitted, but our father said that since he can remember, this painting has been in our house, and now he actually says it is fake, you say we are not angry!"
Meng Zitao laughed: "Can you guarantee that what you say is true?"
"Of course, if I'm lying, I'm this ......"
The third child gestured to the turtle, and then Sen Ran smiled and said, "However, if you are wrong, then ...... Hey, hey!"
Wei Xingyun frowned lightly and glanced at the third child, and said, "Shopkeeper Meng, then let's take a look first." ”
"Please ......"
The boss looked at it first, and after he saw it, his eyes couldn't help but show admiration, but when he saw Meng Zitao, who was there, his eyes flashed with doubt.
After nearly twenty minutes, Wei Xingyun also raised his head, and the third child hurriedly asked, "This boss, what do you think of this painting?"
Wei Xingyun frowned and said, "Didn't you notice the smell on this painting?"
"Taste?" the boss was stunned, and then suddenly said: "You are talking about the smell of vinegar, right? Hey, this thing is a little embarrassing, a few days ago we opened this painting to see the situation, my granddaughter suddenly ran over, with her hands to fool around, at that time she did not know where to get some white vinegar on her hands, so she got on the painting. ”
Meng Zitao can debunk him at a glance, and there is basically a vinegar smell in the first place on this painting, which is not something that a child can make by fooling around casually. However, at this time, he also knew the reason why the other party did this, it was just to make him make a mistake in judgment.
Sure enough, just as Meng Zitao thought, the second child pointed at Meng Zitao and laughed: "I said that you, don't you think there is something wrong with this painting because of this vinegar smell?
The third child also gloated and said: "That is, won't you ask us first and then make a judgment?" Actually, because of this, he said that this painting is fake, and if you don't have eyesight, don't open a shop, so as not to mislead others and yourself." ”
Meng Zitao said lightly: "Don't think of yourself, my store is not open if it is opened, you go and inquire, since it opened, have I ever recognized that I missed something, or has a fake gone out from me? As for this vinegar smell, I do think there is a problem, but which ear have you heard about it, just because of the vinegar smell, I think it has a problem?"
The second child sneered: "The dead duck has a hard mouth, what's the problem, you can tell it!"
Meng Zitao was about to explain, when he saw Wang Zhixuan walk in with a person, that person Meng Zitao had also met a few times, it was a friend of Wang Zhixuan, named Zhang Honghe, this person was also a famous collector in Ling City, mainly collecting porcelain.
Unlike most people who like to collect porcelain from the Ming and Qing dynasties, he likes to collect porcelain before the Ming Dynasty, and he also likes porcelain from the folk kiln very much.
Seeing so many people standing in the store, and the atmosphere was still a little tense, Wang Zhixuan and their eyes were all a little surprised.
Wang Zhixuan took Zhang Honghe forward, said hello, and asked Meng Zitao, "Xiao Meng, who are you?"
Meng Zitao laughed secretly in his heart, today's incident is really a coincidence, if Wang Zhixuan didn't come before, he didn't have a complete grasp of this matter in his heart, as for now, he can easily deal with it.
So, without waiting for the brother to speak, he said a few words about the situation.
Wang Zhixuan was not stupid, a thought immediately flashed in his heart, and then he smiled and said to the brothers: "Everyone, I have admired Yun Shouping for a long time, can you also let me appreciate this painting?"
Meng Zitao took over and said: "This is the famous shopkeeper of our antique street. ”
Wang Zhixuan hurriedly waved his hand and was modest.
"Absolutely. The boss smiled heartily, but no matter how Meng Zitao listened, he felt a trace of panic in this laughter.
When Wang Zhixuan saw the original appearance of this painting, he paused slightly, and then took out gloves and related tools and began to appreciate them.
However, he only looked at half the time of Wei Xingyun, so he raised his head and said, "Xiao Meng, it's better for you to come first." ”
Meng Zitao smiled slightly, unfolded only half of the scroll, revealing the part with the inscription and seal, held it up to the light, and said: "Everyone, please look at the contrast between the scenery and the inscription, the ink color." Presumably, you should be able to find that the scenery part is really oxidized, unlike the one with a strip, right?"
"As for the payment part, I think it should be something that was used to dilute the color of the new ink, so it has a completely different performance. ”
