Chapter 416: Clear map of the Haiyan River
………… However, Liu Dong's words made the old man surnamed Han happy in his heart, and he hurriedly scolded: "Liu Dong, is the appraisal level of so many of us not as good as you as a yellow?......-haired boy? Really, what young people are like now, they are far worse than when we were young!"
There is always a kind of person in the world who can't see others better than himself, and the old man surnamed Han is obviously one of them.
"Boss Han doesn't have to rush to pour dirty water on me......
"Splash dirty water, you said I poured dirty water on you? Liu Dong, you are just lucky, you just picked up a few famous paintings, and it is worth me to pour dirty water on you, don't think too highly of yourself!"
"Okay, Old Han, you extinguish the fire! Mr. Liu just made a slip of the tongue just now, don't you care!" Seeing that the two sides were arguing, Liang Yulin hurriedly persuaded. However, he was a little biased in this frame, and in a few words, he attributed the mistake to Liu Dong. Of course, he just acted according to inertia, but he didn't deliberately underestimate Liu Dong.
"Okay, since Manager Liang spoke, then I won't embarrass you. Liu Dong. Since you said that this is Shi Tao's authentic handiwork. Can you show the evidence?"
looked at the old man surnamed Han and regarded himself as an elder everywhere. Superior to others, Liu Dong sneered in his heart.
"Of course, I have the evidence, but what if I show the evidence?"
"Haha, if you can come up with evidence that this is Shi Tao's authentic handiwork, then I will give you this painting for free!" He didn't believe that Liu Dong could come up with evidence, even if his own appraisal results might be wrong, but the appraisal results taken out by the seven Rong Bao Zhai appraisal experts could not be wrong, right?
"Okay, that's what you said!!" Liu Dong followed and confirmed.
"yes. I said it!"
Hearing this, Liu Dong showed a faint smile on his face, and said randomly: "Everyone present is a senior in the antique shop, you all heard it just now, Han Lao promised, if I can come up with evidence to prove that this painting is Shi Tao's authentic work, not Mr. Daqian's imitation, then he will give me this painting for free!"
"Okay, we've all heard it, you can start!" Jiang Lao said. In fact, he also wanted to see if this young man who had offended him just now was really capable. It's just a façade.
And at this time, looking at Liu Dong's colorful announcement and the faint smile on his face, the old man surnamed Han suddenly flashed a trace of uneasiness in his heart. However, he had been blinded by jealousy, and soon threw this uneasiness out of the clouds.
"Manager Liang, please bring a brush and a bowl of water!"
"Okay!" After glancing at Liu Dong with a little surprise, Liang Yulin quickly called a waiter to give Liu Dong's request.
It didn't take long for Liu Dong to ask for a brush and a bowl of half-filled water, which was brought up by a beautiful waitress.
After the things were ready, Liu Dong was not polite, picked up the brush and soaked it in the water, and then carefully studied the unfolded calligraphy and painting for a few seconds, then chose a place in the upper left corner of the picture and gently brushed it with the brush.
At the beginning, everyone watched Liu Dong's movements, and they didn't know why, but after Liu Dong brushed for only a minute, some vague black marks were revealed on the wet rice paper, everyone's eyes widened in surprise, and the old man surnamed Han was even more 'groaning' in his heart, and said secretly: "It's broken!"
With the continuous brushing of the brush in Liu Dong's hand, after the surface of the rice paper was fully infiltrated, the inscription of the "Minister Monk Yuanji Dunshou" and the traces of four red seals of different sizes and shapes have been vaguely seen.
At this time, everyone around understood that although Liu Dong had not completely cleaned up the authentic handiwork of Shi Tao that was hidden by the 'Hidden Method', the old man surnamed Han was embarrassed this time. Moreover, it is very likely that this "Haiyan River Clear Map" worth tens of millions will be lost!
Thinking of this, when several old men around him who didn't have a good relationship with the old man surnamed Han looked at him, they couldn't help but have a bit of schadenfreude in their eyes.
For these mocking eyes, the old man surnamed Han saw it in his eyes, and his heart was about to explode, but at this time, he couldn't attack. And compared with the ridicule of others, the old man surnamed Han is more distressed by the real painting of Shi Tao on the table at this moment!
You must know that Shi Tao is one of the most representative painters in the history of Chinese painting, and his authentic works have always been the mainstream in the auction market, and they are sold for a lot of money. In 1995, Guardian auctioned a hand-scrolled ink paper copy of Shi Tao's "Bamboo and Stone Map", and the transaction price reached 4.73 million!
Although the length of this painting ((40×517cm) is much larger than that of "The Clear Picture of the Haiyan River", considering that this was the transaction price five years ago, even if the price is not doubled now, there are still six or seven million!
"Six or seven million, all my savings add up to not so much!" The old man surnamed Han thought of this, and his heart was distressed.
"Do you want to pull down this old face......" Compared with a real Shi Tao painting worth six or seven million, it seems that it is not impossible to let out this old face, and when I think of these old men surnamed Han, my mind is alive.
Just when the old man surnamed Han was entangled in his heart, Liu Dong had already put down the brush, and then gently rubbed it on the rice paper with his hand for a while, and slowly removed a piece of paper as thin as a cicada's wings from the picture scroll.
And the promotion and seal of Shi Tao at the bottom, as well as Luo Ping, one of the 'Eight Monsters of Yangzhou', Qu Shaoji, one of the four major bibliophiles of the Qing Dynasty, and the appreciation medal and promotion of the famous stone fan Zhang Daqian are also clearly presented in front of everyone.
"Sure enough, it's the real work of the bitter gourd monk, we really lost our eyes just now!" After Liu Dong removed the camouflage from the original picture scroll, Jiang Lao was the first to step forward, and after taking a closer look, he couldn't help but sigh.
And other Rong Bao Zhai's appraisers and contracted painters have also come up, and there are not many opportunities to see Shi Tao's real works with their own eyes, not to mention a large masterpiece like "Haiyan River Qingtu"!
"There is no vanity under the fame!Young man, we really underestimate you!" Jiang Lao looked at Liu Dong's young face, and there was a feeling in his heart that 'the back waves of the Qianjiang River push the front waves'.
"You are too old to win the award!" For this old man surnamed Jiang, Liu Dong still has a good impression in his heart, so he is a little polite in his words.
After listening to his words, Jiang Lao waved his hand, "No prize, no prize, just because you can identify the authentic work of this Shi Tao, it is much better than us old men!"
Hearing this, Liu Dong smiled modestly and did not speak. Sometimes too much to say about modesty can easily turn into hypocrisy. Moreover, these people were not polite to him just now, and Liu Dong didn't want to say too much soft words, and he was plainly inferior.
Plus, he has more important things to deal with.
Liu Dong is not a broad-minded person, he believes in 'villain revenge, from morning to night'!
"Old Han, according to the previous agreement, this authentic painting of Shi Tao's "Clear Map of the Haiyan River" now belongs to me!" Liu Dong smiled indifferently, and deliberately accentuated the words 'Shi Tao's true handwriting' in his words.
Hearing his words, everyone's expressions were different, but at this time, it could be seen that the popularity of the old man surnamed Han was really not very good, and no one stood up to speak for him.
"Hehe, it's ...... Actually, I just ...... It's all ...... It's funny!" After saying this, the old man surnamed Han suddenly found that the eyes of everyone looking at him were full of contempt, and this situation made his old face red, and his heart was full of anger, nervousness, anxiety and other complicated feelings.
However, even in the face of more contempt, he didn't want to give up this upcoming "Haiyan River Clear Map", which is five or six million Shi Tao's real works! Compared with five or six million, face is nothing!
"Hehe!" Liu Dong's disdainful laughter was extremely harsh in the heart of the old man surnamed Han, but he was still at fault, so he could only bear it, and he couldn't have a seizure.
After laughing a few times, Liu Dong took out a palm-sized tape recorder from his pocket, and then pressed the play button in the frightened eyes of the old man surnamed Han, and then everyone spoke before, and the bet between Liu Dong and the old man surnamed Han was replayed word for word!
"Old Han, according to my country's constitution, oral agreements are also legally valid!" Liu Dong said coldly.
"You, you are so despicable!" the old man surnamed Han had a tall forehead, and his fingers pointing at Liu Dong trembled. Breaking his head, he couldn't imagine that Liu Dong still had this hand.
With this recording, the opportunity to directly repay his plan and then pocket this priceless Shi Tao's true handiwork came to naught. The old man surnamed Han, who was already narrow-minded, was about to commit a heart attack.
"Despicable?hehe, Han Laogao looks at me! I just don't want what should belong to me to be relied on by boring people!" After finishing speaking, Liu Dong didn't care about everyone's reactions, Shi Shiran rolled up Shi Tao's authentic work "Haiyan River Qingtu" on the table, and then held it in his hand.
Although this time he had the resentment that had been repeatedly ridiculed before, and won this precious Shi Tao's true handiwork, Liu Dong did not dare to slack off in his heart, if the old man surnamed Han was angry and caused damage to this "Haiyan River Clear Map", then he would be distressed to death.
So just in case, Liu Dong decided to put away the contents of the bag first.
Noticing Liu Dong's movements, the old man surnamed Han looked blue and red for a while, which was even more exciting than the Sichuan opera changing face, and at the same time, the hands on his waist were sometimes clenched and sometimes released, showing his inner unpeace.
It wasn't until Liu Dong rolled up the whole picture that the old man surnamed Han gritted his teeth and said, "Liu Dong, you are ruthless this time, but this matter will not end like this!"
After finishing speaking, without waiting for the people around him to speak, he turned around and left angrily......!
