56, Famous Painting Doubts (II)
Originally, Li Yi saw that Ning Zhongyuan had a painting stuffed in his briefcase, thinking that it was the painting that Yu Meiting had lost, in his opinion, Yu Meiting might have the authentic work of Zheng Banqiao, but the painting sold to Lu Mingyuan and the three people was probably painted by the beautiful girl herself.

The few paintings hanging around Yu Meiting's small tea stall belong to the kind of paintings that copy the ancients, and they are all very good paintings, and they are signed by Yu Meiting herself.
However, when Yu Meiting said that the painting in Ning Zhongyuan's hand was not in a hurry to lose the painting, Li Yi realized that he had made everything wrong. Before, he thought that Boss Fang and Yu Meiting were also acting, because Zheng Banqiao was one of the eight monsters in Yangzhou, with three unique poems, calligraphy and paintings, and his hand-me-down works ranged from 10 million to 20 million or tens of millions, and it was impossible to offer a price of 800,000 yuan.
Recently, a pair of Zheng Banqiao's works that are thought to have been lost have reached more than 80 million, and some connoisseurs believe that Zheng Banqiao's paintings still have a lot of room for appreciation, and some people even rumor that some foreign collectors are willing to bid hundreds of millions of yuan to buy Zheng Banqiao's paintings.
Because Zheng Banqiao's paintings belong to the national treasure level of cultural relics, the state only allows personal collections, and is not allowed to sell to foreigners, so in recent years, some people have begun to move the crooked idea of Zheng Banqiao's authentic works.
Zheng Banqiao's paintings have been handed down too little, and there were not many criminals who faked his paintings, but in recent years, with the increasing antique fever, the paintings of modern masters have been counterfeited in an endless stream, not to mention Zheng Banqiao, one of the eight monsters in Yangzhou.
At present, Li Yi is a beginner to ancient bronzes and carvings, but for calligraphy and painting, which are still in the stage of appreciating Chinese paintings in college, he can't distinguish the authenticity of ancient famous paintings and paintings, so he can only rely on perspective ability.
At this time, Chen Xin saw that the police had taken away three ill-intentioned guys, as well as Ning Zhongyuan, Tiger Master, and Boss Fang, walked up to Li Yi's side, and whispered:
"Ayi, I checked the surveillance here just now, these three boys drove a car, from the moment they entered the antique street, the car has been at the gate of the antique association in the antique street, and the police station is also there!"
"Oh, I see, let's go along!"
Li Yi, Xuanle, Ke'er, and Chen Xin followed, Boss Fang inadvertently turned around, and happened to see Xuanle, so he stopped, waited until Xuanle walked in, stretched out his hand enthusiastically, and said:
"Xuan Shao, you are here today!"
Boss Fang said, approached Xuanle, and asked in a low voice, "What, Xuan Shao, do you see what's coming?"
Xuanle shook hands with the boss of Fang, looked at Li Yi, and said:
"I came to the antique street with my friends to pick up leaks, and I just saw these three kids, we saw one of them cheating before, so I guess there's a problem here!"
"Oh, that's the case, then Xuan Shao, let's go over and have a look, originally I planned to give this painting of Zheng Banqiao to your father to celebrate his birthday!"
"Boss Fang, are you really sure that this Mei Ting girl has Zheng Banqiao's true works?"
"I promise!" Boss Fang said very confidently.
"But 800,000 yuan is too outrageous! Zheng Banqiao's authentic works are at least tens of millions, and the painting that was recently discovered was auctioned off by Sotheby's in Hong Kong for more than 80 million, and the price you gave is too outrageous!"
Li Yi heard the conversation between Xuanle and Boss Fang, so he listened quietly to what was going on, and only listened to Boss Fang explain:
"This painting is a little strange, I feel that in addition to Zheng Banqiao's handwriting, there seems to be another person's handwriting, I can't figure it out, so I opened a low price!"
In fact, this boss Fang didn't tell the truth, he looked at Zheng Banqiao's painting in Yu Meiting's hand, and found that the secret was not what he said to Yu Meiting was Zheng Banqiao's study at all, but Zheng Banqiao's rare cooperation with his friend Jin Nong.
The paintings of the ancients and famous artists rarely cooperate with others to complete a painting, but this painting by Yu Meiting's ancestors is precisely a rare work completed by the frustrated Zheng Banqiao and Jin Nong when they made friends with Yangzhou.
Although Jin Nong's fame is not as loud as Zheng Banqiao's name in modern times, it is not far behind, this master is the head of the Eight Monsters of Yangzhou after all, (one says Zheng Banqiao) The price of his works is only slightly lower than Zheng Banqiao's works; if the painting is confirmed to be a masterpiece completed by Zheng Banqiao and Jin Nong, its estimate is less than hundreds of millions, and if it is on the domestic auction, it is likely to be higher.
Among the wealthy men known to Boss Fang, Xuanle's father was kind to him, and in recent years, he has been very obsessed with Chinese antiques, especially calligraphy and paintings. For this reason, the brother's plan was to resell this amazing work to Xuanle's father, and get a large amount of money to move his antique Zhai to Haicheng Antique City.
Soon everyone arrived at the antique street, in front of the two-story office building where the antique association and the police station were located, Li Yizheng didn't know how to open the car of Lu Mingyuan and the three of them to see it clearly, but saw Chen Xin saying in a decent voice:
"******, those three boys are so lacking in morality, they drove Lao Tzu's car here, and it made it easy for me to find it!"
Lu Mingyuan and the three of them saw a strange tall man take out the car keys, open their car door, and then sit in, and then Li Yi also sat in.
The two accomplices beside Lu Mingyuan hadn't figured out what was going on, but this kid immediately understood, and it was obvious that Li Yi and his partner didn't know how to discover their secret.
The three guys themselves have bad intentions, and now someone has entered their car, but they don't dare to make a noise, because in addition to the painting of Zheng Banqiao who deceived Yu Meiting, there are some things in their car that can't see the light.
After Li Yi got into the car, he and Chen Xin wore gloves and worked together to lift the cushion on the back seat, and the contents were really eye-opening for the two of them.
Several women's erotic bras were placed on top, and then there were a large number of unassembled condoms, and there were several small bags of white things underneath, and after the two men took these things away, they found a bottle of perfume oozing liquid, and the oozing perfume had already wet a scroll.
Because the behavior of the two people was very strange, Director Ma was in the professional habits of the police, and immediately found that Li Yi and the two were not car owners at all, so he stepped forward and asked:
"Are you the owner of the car?
When Li Yi got out of the car with the painting scroll wet with perfume, Yu Meiting recognized this painting at a glance as her own painting, so she stepped forward and said:
"Sir, can you open this painting and show it to me?"
Li Yi looked at Chen Xin, at this time Chen Xin had already shown his documents to Director Ma, Director Ma immediately understood, so he didn't say anything, but immediately ordered three police officers to handcuff Lu Mingyuan and the others.
"It's really my family's ancestral painting!"
Li Yi and Chen Xin opened the scroll, and Yu Meiting recognized at a glance that the painting was indeed her ancestral painting, but when she saw that the painting was soaked with liquid, she immediately fainted.
Li Yi had already seen Zheng Banqiao's painting clearly at this time, giving him a strange feeling, although he didn't understand ancient paintings, but he also had a certain ability to appreciate calligraphy and painting, the bamboo in the painting was obviously two styles, and plum blossoms and orchids were not like a person's handwriting.
But it's a pity that the liquid in Lu Mingyuan's three-person car is not an ordinary perfume, but a chemical agent similar to the word eliminator, in order to eliminate the evidence of these guys' theft of famous paintings in a hurry.
Originally, Lu Mingyuan and the three of them planned to disguise Yu Meiting's ancestral paintings, and then swagger away, but they didn't expect that Ning Zhongyuan would also have a crooked head when they found Ning Zhongyuan for identification.
At this time, Li Yi looked at the scroll in Ke'er's hand that had been confirmed by Yu Meiting to be a fake painting, and he was very conflicted and puzzled. After he exerted his perspective ability, it was obvious that the painting in Ke'er's hand was also genuine, and the tainted painting that Yu Meiting had seen was also a genuine painting.
What the hell is going on?
