After Xu Changzhi finished his opening speech in an official tone, he walked back and forth with several old painters, pretending to admire the paintings. Tong Wei and Xu Jia saw that these old antiques had serious faces, so they beat the drum in their hearts, if this painting was pointed at by these old-timers, wouldn't it be wronged.

Shanzi seemed to see their nervousness, so she whispered, "Don't be nervous, someone will buy your paintings in a while." ”

"Is this really?" Tong Wei didn't believe it.

"The people who came today are either rich or expensive, and this exhibition is side by side with the international art exhibition, and there will be people who will appreciate our paintings. Besides, we all got the money, so you have nothing to worry about, this exhibition is to fight for fame, and our paintings will have room for appreciation in the future, so I'm afraid that we won't be able to make money in the future? ”

Shanzi deliberately said this to Tong Wei and Xu Jia, also to encourage them, in fact, she usually knows a few collectors, and today it seems that these senior collectors are not present, so she feels a little sorry for Tong Wei and Xu Jia.

But she was glad that her paintings would not be sold for a while, so she thought that after these fifteen days, her paintings would be safely placed in Shutao's house, and safely in a place where no one knew.

At this time, Mr. Qu and his wife were present, followed by Fu Yuanshan's family and Qu Shulei. As soon as Qu's father arrived, he had to entertain left and right, greeting each other with the guests, and he didn't bother talking to his daughter for a while. Seeing Father Qu coming, Shutao stepped forward to say hello: "Dad, Mom, you are here." ”

"What? Can't handle it alone? Father Qu seemed to see Shu Tao's nervousness and panic.

Qu's mother took the Yuanshan family and Shulei into the gallery to watch the exhibition, and deliberately let a place to talk to the father and daughter.

"Dad, what did you do today, none of the senior collectors I invited arrived, only Hu Donghai came." Shu Tao leaned closer to Father Qu and whispered.

"Donghai has come to cheer you on? Yes, you can even invite such a big collector, do you know that this one Hu Donghai can be worth the seven or eight senior collectors you mentioned. ”

Shu Tao instantly frowned, and she asked, "Really?" ”

"Isn't that right? You must know that he is very wealthy, and his dedication and love for art are beyond the reach of even your father and me, so take me to meet him. As soon as Father Qu's words fell, Hu Donghai walked from a distance, smiling and welcoming people.

"Mr. Qu, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed."

Father Qu smiled and said, "I heard that you have been working on a project in full swing recently, has the approval come down?" ”

"It's already down." Hu Fatzi muttered in his heart, the approval of the construction of this factory was stamped by Director Ma, and now this approval is hidden in the painting of "Cabbage", and it can only be obtained tonight.

"Mr. Hu is really amazing, he was able to win such a project, but it is strange to say, some time ago, a building in Qutang Real Estate, because the sewage system was not too perfect before, was ordered to rectify not long ago, and your chemical plant got the approval so easily? Didn't it just say yesterday that most of the polluting factories have suspended approvals, and your project is not simple! ”

"I don't talk about business today, I just talk about art, and I only appreciate the wind and moon, okay?" Hu Fatzi showed an embarrassed smile and said, "I like the "Cabbage" on display today, I just want to know how much this painting is priced?" ”

Shu Tao saw that Hu Donghai had the idea of "Cabbage", and she was displeased, this painting was given to her by Ma Jun, no matter what she said, she would swear to defend it to the death. She smiled and said: "Mr. Hu, this is really unfortunate, this painting is priceless, it is just used as a façade, it is not on the sales list, and I ask Mr. Hu to find a new love." ”

When Hu Donghai heard this, he frowned, he thought that this painting would be won tonight, but how could this Miss Qu actually see such a strange thing that could be expensive in Luoyang paper, which made him puzzled for a while. He felt a little crazy in his heart, wondering if this girl knew something?

Father Qu saw that Shutao's stubborn temper had not been restrained, and he relieved the siege: "Everything is discussed, but the little girl cares about other rookie painters, and you lock "Cabbage" as soon as you come, so why don't my daughter be nervous." If you look at other paintings and collect two or three, then the painting you love in your heart will be negotiable. ”

When Mr. Hu heard Mr. Qu say this, he felt that the old fox was going around in circles with him, and for a while he felt that he had fallen behind, so he struck head-on: "Mr. Qu, you have also seen today that there are very few senior collectors, and the only person who has the right to speak on the future and future potential of the paintings is only me. ”

After hearing this, Father Qu looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahahaha, Mr. Hu's joke is too humorous. You see, there are not many senior collectors today, but there are not any media people, and this painting can't be sold, so who will report the news? Besides, all the people who came here were my old friends in the real estate industry, what happened to them to enjoy and buy a few paintings? This exhibition is not just tonight, those senior collectors are not here tonight, maybe they are selling someone's face, maybe they are being bought by someone, and they are only closed tonight, who can guarantee that the person I am talking about can always buy these people? Senior collectors don't look at the words 'Taolei Gallery', they should also take into account the words 'Qutang Real Estate', right? ”

Hu Fatzi looked frustrated: "In that case, I'll collect a few new works of newcomers first, and then we'll talk about "Cabbage" later?" ”

Mr. Qu closed his eyes and nodded, and said, "Mr. Hu is grateful." Come, this way, please. ”

Hu Fatzi was taken to the living room by Father Qu, who smiled and said, "There is a good YN Pu'er here, you have to try it." ”

Hu Fatzi smiled reluctantly, and ordered his subordinates to take down a few newcomer works first, and then hit the idea of "Cabbage".

Seeing that the situation was not good, Shutao politely said goodbye, so he picked up his mobile phone and dialed Ma Jun's phone, although the phone was dialed, but no one answered the phone for a long time.

How is this going on?

She sent another message to her dad: You come to me.

After a while, Mr. Qu came and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Dad, you know that Ma Jun's painting was given to me, you just said that, this is not a chance to give that fat man a chance."

Father Qu looked serious: "If I hadn't saved the scene with you, I would have seen that this art exhibition would be wasted!" Look at you, what the hell, you don't invite these important people in Gao Ya, none of the senior collectors appreciate it, if this is spread out, where will my old face go? Today is your birthday, I give you enough face, and after today, how can I teach you a lesson! You are young and vigorous, and you think too highly of yourself, I don't think you are doing things at the grassroots level, and you don't know the secret way of doing business and the way to behave in the world! ”

Shutao's face was red, as if he had been greatly wronged, and he felt uncomfortable, but at this time, he couldn't make trouble unreasonably, if he showed a little girl's coquettish appearance, he was even more flattened by his father, so he said: "But this painting is a gift from Ma Jun, and I don't change my money!" ”

"Since it's already your thing, why be so persistent, you have the right to deal with it yourself, you weigh it yourself, if you still want this gallery to run, you should sell Hu Donghai a face, don't you think he also gave us enough face and won the newcomer's works?"

Shutao was speechless.

Father Qu patted her on the shoulder and said, "The dress is good, how much did it cost me?" ”

"This is sent by Ma Jun!" Shutao was blunt.

Father Qu smiled, accompanied by Shu Tao to Hu Fatzi's side, Father Qu gave Shu Tao a look, Shu Tao sat down and said: "Mr. Hu, since you like the painting "Cabbage" so much, I will reluctantly cut my love, and give you 15 million, what do you think?" ”

When Hu Fatzi heard that this little girl was a lion with a big mouth, he laughed, and pretended to be calm and said: "Don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face, just rely on me to look at Qu's total share, and win ten newcomer works in one go, you also give a face, let me lower the price, what do you think?" ”

"And how much do you say?"

"Eight million, the number is auspicious, what do you think?"

Shutao wanted to fight again, but who knew that Father Qu nodded at her, but she knew in her heart that Father Qu thought the price was good, so she readily acquiesced: "Okay, deal." ”

"Hahahaha, refreshing people." Hu Fatzi smiled, "Then now that I have signed the contract, I will take the painting away immediately." Tomorrow the money will be transferred directly to the contract account, what do you think? ”

Shumo nodded.

After the contract was completed and all the formalities were completed, Hu Fatzi moved the painting away. Shu Tao sat there in disbelief, dialed Ma Jun's phone again, but still no one answered, just when he was lonely and helpless, Yue Ran called: "Shu Tao, your birthday party is ready, all kinds of important people have arrived one after another, when the gallery is over, you can call those people to your private farm, and we will celebrate your birthday." ”

"Huh? When did you get it. ”

"As soon as I got off the plane, I started to prepare intensively, but fortunately, Mr. Qu helped vigorously, otherwise it wouldn't be so fast."

Shu Tao hung up the phone, went to look for Erman and Li Wen, and saw Erman standing in front of a painting, alone, so she felt a little desolate, she walked over and said, "Why, there are no predators coming over today?" ”

"There are no predators, look at these people, either they are old enough to be my father, or they came with their wife, I don't think there are people at the top of the pyramid."

"Don't be discouraged, we still have an After Party, when this side is over, we'll go to the next scene, my super birthday party, a lot of important people are already waiting there."

"Really?" There seemed to be another glimmer of fire in Erman's heart.

Li Wen came over and said, "Shutao, Shanzi is gone." ”

"Huh? What's going on? Shutao asked.

"I don't know, I wanted to talk to her about the "Struggle", but I couldn't find it."

"Then I'll call her now, it's weird, we still have a party, why did she abandon me."

Shutao called Shanzi, and then she was relieved, it turned out that Shanzi went on a date with Zhang Qi, and went to Shutao's birthday party with Zhang Qi for a while.

At this time, Shulei and Fu Yuanshan came over, Shulei and Shutao hugged and said, "I heard Dad, do you still have a birthday party, but I'm a little uncomfortable now, or I won't go, Yuanshan will send me back first." ”

Shu Tao didn't pay attention to Fu Yuanshan, and only said to Shu Lei: "Then you go back and rest first." ”

"Sister, your necklace and skirt are really beautiful."

"Of course, you look at this chain, priceless, and then put on this sky-high dress, it is impeccable. By the way, Ma Jun helped me buy this dress, why didn't you talk to me in advance. ”

"Isn't that a surprise for you?"

"Don't laugh, surprises come with fright, Ma Jun is really creative!"

"Hey, I originally wanted to wear those pair of earrings to the art exhibition today, but some people thought the earrings looked too big and fake, so they didn't dare to wear them."

Fu Yuanshan listened to it from the side, and suddenly it was not a taste, but he didn't say anything.

Shu Tao said: "Who has eyes on the buttocks, and there are no beads." But you can't blame them, after all, these people haven't touched a few high-end gadgets since they were children, but the energy in their hearts to compare and show off is a hundred times more than ours, you don't remember villains, what are they called by these cunning charms, you say, yes, Yuanshan. ”

Yuanshan didn't know how to answer for a while, but smiled awkwardly: "Yes, yes." ”

"Sister, then let's go, you have fun, I'll make up your birthday gift for you another day."

"Shulei, you gave birth to the child peacefully, which is my best birthday gift. I'm going to have a nephew for my birthday this year. Shutao laughed.

Shulei hugged her sister and left with Yuanshan.

Hu Fatzi was anxious to transport the painting to the villa, and as soon as he entered the villa, he asked people to take a knife and open the painting without saying a word, and when they opened the painting, Hu Fatzi scolded: "Damn! Is this painting also a fake? There's nothing in there, hurry up and call Ma Dewen, what the hell is going on. ”

One of his subordinates came running: "Boss, it's not good. ”

"What's the matter?"

"Director Ma has fallen off the horse and is now suspended for investigation."

Hu Donghai was in a cold sweat at this time, who set them up inside and outside here? Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a police car honking outside the courtyard wall of the villa, and he asked, "What's going on outside?" ”

"Guys from law enforcement, they want to see you."

"What?" Hu Fatzi hurriedly wiped the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief and opened the door to greet him.
