The shopkeeper sighed lightly and said: "Girl, this is not a question of whether to accompany or not, but this "Lanting Collection Preface" is written by the right army of the sage of calligraphy, it is the treasure of calligraphy in the world, it is a literati and ink writer, and the emperor will meet something that cannot be found. ”

"Two thousand taels!"

The maiden girl exclaimed, glanced at her own young lady, and showed a frightened look in her eyes, obviously the price of this "Lanting Collection Preface" was higher than she imagined.

The woman at the head seemed calm, but Yang Zheng still saw the horror in her eyes, her face became a little ugly, and a lot of sweat beads overflowed on her forehead and the tip of her nose.

"This may not be the real thing, right?" the woman at the head muttered for a moment, then exhaled and spoke.

The shopkeeper sighed slightly, and said: "Girl, you are insulting the character of the old man, and you are also insulting the credibility of my Lan Tingge, the old Lan Tingge has been on this street for decades, and it depends on trust, and the girl said this to make the old man angry." ”

The woman at the head also seemed to feel that she was a little arbitrary when she said this, and hurriedly said: "The little girl in the store didn't mean that, I mean that this "Lanting Collection Preface" was only torn a little, and it does not affect the whole calligraphy and painting-?"

The shopkeeper is a fine person, how can he not hear the meaning of the woman's words, pretending to sigh, and said: "The girl's words are bad, this calligraphy and painting is not comparable to the side, what you want is the authentic handiwork, once it is damaged, even if Wang Youjun comes to sell it, I am afraid that no one will ask?"

The woman at the head is none other than Shen Qiuyan, and behind her is her maid named Shen Xiaoyue, the two of them came out today just to see the scenery of the West Lake, and they didn't bring much silver taels, and they entered the Lanting Pavilion just because they were curious to come in and take a look, who knew that when they were looking at this calligraphy and painting, when Xiaoyue turned around, the corner of her clothes was accidentally moved, and it was torn open a small opening.

It is said that it is torn and torn, but it is just a painting, although there are not many silver taels in the hand, it should not be difficult to buy a pair of calligraphy and paintings, so Shen Yanqiu didn't take it seriously at first, but when he saw the store come in, he knew that this thing was not so simple , Deng Shi sighed secretly, Wang Youjun's book is famous all over the world, up to the emperor, down to the general, don't you want to have this calligraphy and painting to be proud, such a treasure of two thousand taels is not expensive, but it is a pity that she does not have so much silver, it should not be so much silver taels.

When Xiao Yue heard that she wanted two thousand taels of silver, in addition to being surprised, she was more of a self-blame, her terrible face was already flushed, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Shen Yanqiu.

"Miss, I broke this calligraphy and painting, and it has nothing to do with you, either or not, you go first, right?"

Shen Qiuyan frowned and shouted: "What nonsense, we are sisters, something like this happened, how can I leave you alone?

A trace of emotion welled up in Xiao Yue's eyes, and tears almost fell from her watery eyes, and she whimpered: "But, Miss, we ...... We don't have so much money to lose, so how can that be?"

Shen Qiuyan only had less than one hundred taels of silver tickets on her body, and she couldn't afford to pay two thousand taels at all, but at this point, she had to hold on, glanced at the "Lanting Collection Preface" and said in a deep voice: "The character of the little girl in the store is trustworthy, but she has never bought goods and inspected the goods, this "Lanting Collection Preface" may not be true or false, I don't know anything-?"

The shopkeeper seemed to have already seen what Shen Yanqiu was thinking, and sighed lightly: "The girl doesn't believe in the old decay, and the old decay is helpless, so let's do it, there is a pawn shop opposite, you just need to send this calligraphy and painting to the pawn shopkeeper to take a look, and then ask the price, the girl can rest assured, these pawn shopkeepers have been working in this industry for decades, and their eyesight is extraordinary, whether it is true or false at a glance?"

"Of course you want to take a look at this?" Shen Yanqiu said and carefully took the calligraphy and painting, and said to Xiao Yue: "Yue'er, you go and take a look!

Xiao Yue has been blaming herself, and when she heard this, she made a "hmm" sound, took the calligraphy and painting tremblingly, turned around and walked out of the store.

The store fell silent.

"Hua'an, do you think it's true?" The eldest lady walked over and asked in a low voice, she had already seen that the two women had no money to pay at all, so she thought of such a way to delay.

Yang Zheng smiled indifferently and said, "This calligraphy and painting has a designated place for the store to appreciate, can it be fake?"

"Is that true?" The eldest lady was very sympathetic to Shen Qiuyan's master and servant, and sighed softly when she heard this.

Yang Zheng glanced at the store, smiled, and said, "Who wants to see this?"

The eldest lady gave him a strange look, and said in her heart: "Could it be that you think it's fake?"

The pawn was just opposite Lan Ting Pavilion, standing on that counter, you could even see the outer store of Lan Ting Pavilion, and Xiao Yue ran back with tears in her eyes not long after she went.

"How's that? is it true?" Shen Yanqiu asked eagerly, this was her last hope, if it was true, she really didn't know how to deal with the crisis in front of her.
