Chapter 151: Prologue - Lao Huai is pleased
[Alas...... If you want to write funny, a little hot-blooded, why is it so difficult!!....... ask for a monthly pass! ask for a subscription! ask for a qiē ah !!]
"Who? do you say...... Whose post?" Wang Xian's body immediately straightened up again, and under the excitement, his hands trembled, and the tea cup he had just picked up was poured on the table, and the painting that had just been made was spent in an instant.
"Wang Youjun's words!" Xu Chen looked at Wang Xian with a smile and said a little narrowly.
Wang Xian didn't have time to care about his gaffe at the moment, he looked at Xu Chen in a daze, and asked stupidly: "Wang Youjun, who is Wang Youjun?"
When Xu Chen heard this, he blinked his eyes, looked at Wang Xian in surprise, and after thinking for a moment, he said cautiously: "Wang Xizhi!
"Oh...... It turned out to be this Wang Youjun!" Wang Xian nodded, with a look of sudden realization, and was just about to sit down again, but then as if he had just come back to his senses, he immediately bypassed the desk, rushed to Xu Chen, grabbed Xu Chen's hand and hurriedly asked, "Where is it?"
Xu Chen stared at the distance from the desk to himself, and then looked at Wang Xian's figure that was not obese but still fat, this speed ...... Does this guy teleport?
Xu Chen looked at Wang Xian in confusion, and only then did he come back to his senses until his arm was pinched.
"Where?"
Wang Xian's cry called Xu Chen back from his surprise, and then he realized that he had thought about it, but his heart was still palpitating: "Damn! I thought there was another bald donkey......
"Oh, here! Things are here!" Xu Chen, who came back to his senses, hurriedly took out the brocade box he was carrying in his arms and handed it to Wang Xian.
Wang Xian took it tremblingly, and walked back to the desk slowly.
This time, Xu Chen, who carefully observed Wang Xian's stumbling steps, relieved himself: "This damn old boy, what are you excited about? I almost scared Lao Tzu to death!"
Wang Xian didn't have time to pay attention to Xu Chen's slander at this moment, at this moment, in his eyes, there was only the brocade box in his hand!
Carefully opened the brocade box, took out a piece of paper that was well maintained, but still a little yellowed, Wang Xian was like a pilgrim, carefully checking every word on the book.
Wang Xizhi's name is naturally not covered! And Wang Xian, who likes calligraphy and painting since childhood, naturally admires his own family's calligraphy, but helplessly, Wang Youjun's calligraphy is very rare, and even if there is, most of them are collected by wealthy families or scholarly families to make heirlooms, and it is impossible to take them out and sell them if they are not in the middle of the family, so even if they want to get such a bookpost as the eldest son of Wang Xian Taiyuan Wang, they can only look at God's face!
"Not bad! Not bad! Haha, it's really Wang Youjun's words!" Wang Xian has studied Wang Xizhi's calligraphy very deeply, although he has no chance to own a calligraphy, but in his capacity, he has gone to those families who have treasured the calligraphy to watch it, and this kind of thing has been done many times.
After all, most of the appreciation of this profession depends on experience, and the old guys in those antique shops estimate that they will not be able to see a few authentic works in their lives, and most of them rely on some oral experience, which can compare to Wang Xian's practical experience?
"Huh, this poster...... Why does it look so familiar?" Wang Xian had just fallen into obsession, but now that he had eased up a little, he found that the calligraphy in his hand was a little familiar, so he asked out loud: "Isn't this the one from 'Gu Xuan Zhai'?"
"That's right! My lord really has good eyesight! I can't see his origin for a moment without seeing it, it's really high!" Xu Chen immediately sent a sycophant, but that expression was really a little underwhelming!
"Don't talk about calves here! What is written on this, Lao Tzu memorized it backwards when he was eight years old, Lao Gujia's post, the old man has read it not ten times but eight times! Can it not be familiar?" Sure enough, Wang Xian was a little angry by this naked sycophant, and he used swear words for a while, and then he noticed it, and then changed his words.
Xu Chen was not embarrassed to be scolded, but just stood there and smiled.
"Say!How did this post come about?Did you steal it or rob it?" Wang Xian immediately squinted at Xu Chen and said.
In the past two years, he didn't know how much thought he had put into this post, but the ancient boss refused to let go, and he didn't sell it for any amount of money!
These Wang Xian also understand that if he were replaced, he would not sell it! It's just that as a descendant of the family of etiquette, Wang Xian still has this kind of bearing, and he didn't rely on his power to do anything out of the ordinary, but he just went to the "Gu Xuan Zhai" every once in a while, and every time he saw it, he was just addicted! Of course, this is also because this Gu boss is not an ordinary person, and the relationship behind him is complicated.
So for this fragrant meat, Wang Xian can be said to have been thinking about it, but he is helpless!
"My lord, look at what you said! The kid is also a scholar, how can he steal and rob it?" Xu Chen immediately showed a posture of "June Flying Snow" and muttered.
Wang Xian also recovered from that excitement at this time, knowing that he was in a hurry just now and said the wrong thing, but it was not easy to admit his mistake, right?
"How much did you spend on this?" Wang Xian then asked.
Xu Chen smiled, stretched out his hand, and gestured a "eight"!
"Eighty thousand, you actually spent eighty thousand!" Wang Xian was naturally not stupid enough to think that Xu Chen's gesture meant "eight thousand guan", a joke! You take eight thousand guan to change me for a pair of Wang Xizhi's calligraphy, your head is caught by the door!
Wang Xian was stimulated all of a sudden, you must know that his annual income is only a few thousand, this is his more than ten years of income!
Of course, as a member of the Taiyuan Wang clan, it is naturally impossible for him to have only such a little income, and that can't support the face of his wealthy family, isn't it? It's just that he Wang Xian is the eldest son in the family, and the head of the family is his younger brother, so he is embarrassed to ask for money all the time! Therefore, in addition to the subsidies sent by his family every year, Wang Xian will not take the initiative to ask for money at home, and if he wants to get Wang Xizhi's book, he has no face to report such a large expense to his family, so he can only sigh with admiration!
"Big ...... My lord! It's not 80,000! It's 800,000! 800,000!" Xu Chen nodded slightly, stretched out his hand again, gestured, and emphasized seriously.
"What do you say?800,000 guan?" Wang Xian couldn't sit still anymore this time, and stood up suddenly.
Seeing that he was about to teleport again, Xu Chen hurriedly leaned down slightly, raised his hands, bent his arms to protect his face, and was ready to greet him, but he couldn't let him knock him over!
It's just as if Wang Xian's mana was exhausted just now, this time he just supported the desk with both hands, stared at Xu Chen with both eyes, and saw Xu Chen's somewhat funny appearance, and suddenly wanted to laugh, but he just held back and asked again: "You just said that you spent 800,000 yuan to buy this bookposter?"
When Xu Chen heard the question, his head moved to the right, and through the arms in front of him, he looked at Wang Xian, and saw that the other party was still standing in place, so he smiled, restored his original state, and said to Wang Xian: "Yes! It cost 800,000 yuan! Otherwise, the ancient boss would still refuse to sell it!"
The value of calligraphy, painting and antiques fluctuates greatly, whether it is worth it or not, and how much it is worth depends on the determination of the buyer and seller.
If you want to say that Wang Xizhi's book post, a little more famous, such as the "Lanting Collection Preface" post, it is really priceless, and the gold is not exchanged, not to mention 800,000 guan, even 8 million guan people will not be changed, because the one who can have this thing is either a hero or an emperor, and people don't care about this money!
However, like some ordinary books, as long as they are circulated, although they are also crowded, they also have a price!
Roughly ranging from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of thousands, after all, no matter how rich people are, they have to estimate the value, right? Besides, although this thing is expensive, the number of buyers and sellers is almost very small, those who have a heart have no money, and those who are rich are just for the sake of a book, thinking of keeping the heirloom, and those families don't need to use this to highlight the cultural heritage, so there are only some people who are rich and obsessed with Wang Xian, who are loyal customers of this kind of thing, but this kind of people, although they are rich, they also have a bottom limit, right?
And this one of "Gu Xuan Zhai", although it is also famous, but it is not impossible to measure it with money, in Wang Miao's opinion, about 100,000 guan is about the same market price, but Xu Chen actually said that it cost 800,000 guan, how can you not be surprised?
Of course, in fact, it was precisely because of Xu Chen's inevitable momentum that he deterred Boss Gu, otherwise it would be impossible for Boss Gu, who withstood the pressure of being too guarded, to sell things lightly, let alone sell them so quickly!
"Hehe, 800,000 guan! The virtuous nephew is really domineering!" Wang Xian calmed down again and said with a smile.
Xu Chen was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "My lord's words are serious!
Listening to Xu Chen's immodest words, Wang Xian shook his head, and then asked with a smile: "It seems that you have made a lot of money this time!"
"I used to hear Brother Xu say that this big disciple of his, who is very good at making money, but now that I look at it, it's really extraordinary!"
Xu Chen's auction made such a big commotion, how could Wang Xian, who was a Taishou, not know? This is also the reason why he deliberately hung Xu Chen just now, after all, whoever knows that he has been robbed by someone will always be unhappy in his heart.
It's just that although he knows that Xu Chen has made money, he doesn't know the specific amount, who let the merchants who participated in the auction seem to have lost their souls in the past few days, and they are all hiding at home and sad, so until now, how much Xu Chen has earned this time, outsiders still don't know.
"Tell me, how much did you earn this time?" Wang Xian asked with a slight smile.
Wang Xian was still a little relieved this time, after all, in his mind, this guy was willing to spend 800,000 yuan to bribe, and he still took a fancy to him as an old man!
Otherwise, how could he spend nearly half of the proceeds to give him gifts?
You say, isn't it?
