Chapter 07: Boss Li, who lost blood
"Mr. Xu?"
Lin Yang was slightly stunned, and his face looked a little surprised.
He suddenly realized that Xu Ziqing, the flower of this school, happened to have the same surname as the treasure expert, and Xu Ziqing's understanding of antiques also surpassed many peers. Such a coincidence, if you think about it, you can guess that these two people are father and daughter.
"Oh, do you know my father?"
Xu Ziqing originally had nothing to do during the summer vacation, so she followed her father to this antique street for a walk, but she went to the jewelry store to watch for a few minutes, and when she came out, she found that her father had disappeared.
"Just met. Your father should have been at Pawnshop Nine an hour ago, and now I don't know. ”
Lin Yang was about to go back to the pawn shop, and his watch had not yet been redeemed.
But at this time, there is not much money left in hand.
At the moment, the main task is to be able to sell the painting as soon as possible.
If you pick up something that has leaked, you can't keep it in your hands for too long, otherwise all kinds of troubles will occur. For example, the origin of things, the inspection of cultural relics by relevant departments, after a long time, many things are not clear.
"Whether this painting in your hand is real or not, my father will know when he sees it. I'll give him a call right away. ”
Xu Ziqing took out her mobile phone from her pocket.
Lin Yang stopped and began to admire Xu Ziqing's figure, before in Yuzhou No. 1 Middle School, in addition to the boys in the school, there were also many rich second generations outside the school to confess to Xu Ziqing.
But those people all rejected her, and no one knew what the school girl liked. But for this big beauty's hobby, few people can play it.
Antique appreciation, for the layman, is a very boring thing.
For example, a pair of chicken cups worth tens of millions of dollars, in the eyes of ordinary people, are just two small cups with two chickens painted on them.
But in the eyes of treasure connoisseurs, the chicken bowl cup is the cup used by Emperor Chenghua of the Ming Dynasty to drink, and the royal supplies are naturally extraordinary.
After Xu Ziqing finished calling, she immediately took Lin Yang to a shop at the end of the antique street.
The signboard at the door has three gilded characters, Cuiwei Pavilion.
Unlike other antique shops, this one is more like a large shopping mall, divided into a jewelry area, a porcelain area, a calligraphy and painting area, etc. Every antique is classified and placed so that people can see it at a glance.
Business here is also very hot, and there are many rich wives who come to buy jewelry in the jewelry district.
"What are you bringing me here for?"
Lin Yang swept around, feeling that he was wandering around with a painting scroll in his hand, which seemed a little weird. And if you want to find Old Man Xu, shouldn't you go to the No. 9 pawnshop opened by Zhong Mancang?
"Because my dad is right here. The owner of this Cuiwei Pavilion, called the third uncle, is a good friend of my father. ”
Xu Ziqing didn't reveal much information to Lin Yang on the phone just now, and after hanging up the phone, he dragged him to the store opened by the third uncle.
"Good Friends ......"
Lin Yang was stunned.
"It's been a good friend for many years. Why do you look like a nerd?"
Xu Ziqing originally had a good impression of Lin Yang's academic performance because of him. But his cold appearance suddenly reduced his favorability a little.
And the painting in Lin Yang's hand, Xu Ziqing didn't believe it would be true.
Is it so easy to find a crippled painting?
What's more, Lin Yang is not a rich man, let alone have the opportunity to buy this valuable "Rain Washing Mountain Root Map".
"Okay. It's good to let Xu Lao take a look, after all, he is the authority of the Yuzhou antique industry, and his vision will not be wrong. ”
In this antique market, there are some high-quality imitations, and it is difficult for ordinary experts to distinguish them.
Even the master of treasure connoisseurship has a time when he looks away, but authority is authority, even if he looks away, as long as Xu Guoliang says that a piece of high-imitation porcelain is true, others will follow the crowd and will not have any objections.
Of course, a treasure connoisseur will not deliberately spoil his reputation.
"Come with me. The third uncle and father were waiting for us in the cabinet inside. ”
This Cuiwei Pavilion only has one floor, but the venue inside is very large, and there will be a partitioned cabinet a few steps inside, similar to the tea room on the second floor of Zhong Mancang Pawn Shop, which is specially used to receive big people.
After passing through a door, the decoration style instantly rose to a high level, and the sides of the passage were filled with all kinds of bonsai, and the floor was also turned into marble.
Xu Ziqing pushed open the door, and around the table in front of him, there was a circle of people.
"Ziqing, you're here. What about the guy you said had the original Stony Brook collection?"
A slightly chubby middle-aged man asked impatiently.
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man with a painting scroll came in.
"Third uncle, ...... It's him, Lin Yang, who is from the same school as me. ”
Xu Ziqing pointed to Lin Yang, who entered the door, said hello to the elders he knew at the scene, and stood next to Xu Guoliang.
"I heard that Xiaoyou has collected Shixi's paintings, can you take them out for everyone to palm?"
The boss of Cuiwei Pavilion, a greedy look, was anxious to see the painting in Lin Yang's hand.
At this time, Xu Lao also echoed.
"Lin Yang, we're not any new people. I was fortunate enough to have seen one of them in the Palace Museum before, and it was very agile and the style of painting was vigorous and moist, which made me still remember it. Can you give me a glimpse today? ”
Xu Ziqing put on a cold face on the side.
"Dad, this painting in his hand is eighty percent fake, don't get your hopes up. ”
The other bosses at the scene also followed suit.
"I can't find any of the crippled paintings on the market at the moment, where did he get the real work?"
"There are countless paintings with high imitation residues, and it is not good for us to keep one in the Yuzhou Museum. ”
"Coincidentally, it just so happened that Boss Li also brought a painting to you today, so it's better to let the two paintings compare together. ”
In the cabinet, there is a table in which there is also a beautiful scroll.
This scroll is so exquisite, and the paintings inside must be extraordinary.
Lin Yang didn't have to worry at all, the painting in his hand now looked like it was still shining and shining.
"Then please appreciate it. Lin Yang directly put the scroll on the table.
The liar who sold the painting naturally didn't use any good painting scrolls, and when he fell directly, the patterns on the painting scrolls had become extremely blurry.
At this time, Boss Li hurriedly put his words up.
"This ...... Mr. Xu, please help me take a look. This painting of mine is also a masterpiece of a famous artist in the Qing Dynasty. ”
This is a painting that Boss Li bought for hundreds of thousands, so naturally he will not worry about the authenticity. And I came here today just to show off.
There are two paintings on the table, just looking at the painting scroll, Boss Li's painting has completely killed Lin Yang's in seconds.
Xu Guoliang looked at the two painting scrolls, looking a little hesitant.
The third uncle smiled and said, "Look at Boss Li first, this guy always says that he has a good vision, he can exchange small money for big money, and pick up leaks." This time, let's see if he has picked up any big leaks. ”
Xu Guoliang originally stopped his hand on Lin Yang's painting scroll, but when he heard the third uncle say this, he switched to Boss Li's side.
He put on white gloves and took out a magnifying glass from his pocket, and then slowly opened the scroll to take the painting, and then spread it out on the table.
This appreciation of paintings, first look at the whole, good paintings, bad paintings, often at a glance.
But if you want to distinguish between a painting and a fake, you have to look closely. In the fake paintings, there are also good paintings with high imitations, which cannot be seen at a glance.
Of course, a fake is a fake after all, and even if the quality is the same as the real thing, it can never be compared with the real thing.
It's like the company leader signing the contract, although you imitate the leader's signature, imitate the same thing, can you say that your signature can represent the power in the leader's hands?
"Boss Li's painting is the early work of the original monks in the early Qing Dynasty. The painting style looks a little immature, but there is no doubt that this should be the real thing. ”
Xu Lao nodded, but the expression on his face did not change.
Boss Li was overjoyed, as if he had heard some good news.
"That...... Since it's true, please give me an estimate. ”
Ordinary people are expensive and cheap for babies, all about the price. The higher the price, the greater the value of the treasure, and the priceless item can be described as a national treasure.
"I don't know what price you got this thing? At present, the price on the market is about one-tenth of the price of the early works of similar celebrities, and there are still fifty or sixty thousand. ”
Boss Li's heart trembled, and his scalp was numb.
The famous paintings of the early Qing Dynasty that he spent 200,000 yuan were only worth 50,000 or 60,000 yuan!
"It's okay, it's okay. ”
Boss Li is a good-looking person, and he will never say anything about his loss at this time.
At this moment, his smile was stiff and his heart was dripping blood.
After all, this time I lost more than 100,000 yuan.
