The man then asked, "Old man, how much do you sell this painting for?" ”

Grandpa Whitebeard is quite good at doing business, knowing the eyes, taking the opportunity to sit on the ground and raise the price, and the words are elegant, "The real work is priceless, and the imitation is not cheap, fifty taels-" Hehele, "The silver will do."

"Tongbao Yinhao's ticket, do you accept it?" Probably a foreigner, very refreshing, no bargaining.

"No." The old man waved his hand, "The little old man is dizzy, he doesn't know the tickets, he only knows the real money." ”

"Yes." The accent came from the north, "Give you gold." Who can carry fifty taels of silver ingots? ”

Xia Su squinted and saw a small ingot of barley.

The proprietor was so happy that he collected the gold, took off the painting, rolled it up, and presented it to the guest with both hands, and cooked the noodles with joy.

Xia Su was only separated from those people by a table, and listened to the customers who bought the paintings talking about the paintings on the ink sheets in the famous treasure shops of the Beijing Division, and if the imitation paintings were good, they would also get a high price, and fifty taels was not expensive.

At this time, the Hanhua Museum on the opposite bank distracted her. The guys in the hall began to open the door panels, and the guests came out one after another, until the night was completely shrouded, and the shop did not leak a single light.

Business is good.

After eating a bowl of noodles, four or five customers rolled out.

Nothing out of the ordinary.

Xia Su was indifferent, but his mind couldn't help but return to what Hu Shi said.

Hu's husband's family is rich, the heirs are withering, the husband is dead, and the relatives are constantly greedy, and they beat the idea of the mother and daughter. As a last resort, Hu exchanged all the fields and shops for cash and moved to Suzhou with his daughter.

Speaking of the relationship between the Hu family and Mrs. Zhao, in fact, it is not a distant relative at all, but the mother's family and Mrs. Zhao's maiden family are in the same county, and there are some contacts between the older generation. Mrs. Zhao helped Mrs. Zhao's mother's family carry letters, and Mrs. Zhao saw that the orphans and widows were helpless, and that the Hu family had good morals, so she left them to live in Zhao's mansion, nothing more.

Hu Shi was quite talented in business, and soon set about buying a shop and returning to the original business of buying treasures and antiques. On the one hand, she remained shrewd, but on the other hand, she pretended not to be shrewd, and she also saved the idea of finding a husband of the Zhao family for her daughter, so she revealed some valuable belongings and deposited them in the treasury of the Zhao Mansion through the eldest lady.

About a year and a half ago, when the new goods in the shop were delayed, Hu hurriedly took a batch of antiques from the warehouse and temporarily filled the façade, but unexpectedly let the experienced shopkeeper see that there were fake antiques among them. Before they were placed in the treasury, these antiques passed through the eyes of the big shopkeeper and were clearly genuine. At the very least, the shopkeeper was convinced that he could not see two results when he had seen the same antique with one pair of eyes.

Hu suspected that the treasurer's hands and feet were not clean, so he naturally told Mrs. Zhao the original story.

Mrs. Zhao was worried that there was a second room in the treasury, and before there was conclusive evidence, she didn't want to fall into the second room, so she decided to secretly verify it first. She also suggested that Hu find another antique connoisseur to take a look, and if she was sure that something had become fake, she would not tolerate it.

The next thing is strange.

The next day, Hu invited others to come to appraise, and those fake antiques turned out to be real antiques again, and even the big shopkeeper had nothing to say. The real becomes false, the false becomes true, which makes people scratch their heads, but the Hu family has no choice but to make amends with Mrs. Zhao, saying that she made a mistake.

Although the matter passed, Hu Shi felt uneasy, and he was not really relieved until he took out the stored things in batches and did not have the same situation happen again.

After a long time, when Hu began to believe that it was her family's big shopkeeper who looked away, the big shopkeeper who went to other places to buy goods brought back a few things.

Those things are the imitations of those antiques that have changed from the real to the fake earlier. They are well-made, seven points like the real thing, and even the small wear and tear are similar to the real thing, which is not a coincidence.

The shopkeeper said that it is very likely that someone will transfer the contract and make more sophisticated imitations from the real product to make huge profits.

Hu Shi thought that Zhao Mansion was short of money, and felt that Mrs. Zhao was slack in this matter, so he suspected that it was not that the steward's hands and feet were not clean, but that Mrs. Zhao was reckless and did something that could not be seen.

Not long after Hu had this suspicion, his daughter was implicated in the love poem incident, and the Zhao family hinted that the mother and daughter quietly left Suzhou. The Hu family stayed with his daughter for a while longer, but he was unwilling to fight for his daughter, but felt that this was an opportunity to stay away from the Zhao family, and no one doubted.

said that Zhao Mansion Shentan's words, the Hu family was really angry, and only vented a trace of doubt. She didn't know that Zhao Qinghe's eyes and ears were different from ordinary people, and she could best listen to these voiceovers.

Zhao Qinghe never forgot it, he just thought that he had no chance to ask clearly, but he entrusted his sister's good luck to arrest Zhao Zishuo, who was privately committed for life, so that he could follow the vine and touch the melon. Not only was he really not interested in Zhao Zishuo's marriage, but he also expected that the Hu family loved his daughter. This marriage is a certainty, if he can help her daughter win the nod of Master Zhao, the Hu family is naturally willing to talk to him.

Sure enough, as Zhao Qinghe expected, Hu said everything. This time, she also pointed out that Mrs. Zhao was the manipulator, not only based on speculation, but also said three related characters with names and surnames, Lu Qi and his wife and the shopkeeper of the Han Painting Museum.

Lu Qi Niangzi was working in Mrs. Zhao's courtyard at that time. When Hu and Mrs. Zhao sent the servants and maids in the hall to talk about the exchange of antiques, Hu's maid saw Lu Qiniang standing under the side wall window. This is one of them.

Second, the person who handled this batch of antiques was Lu Qi.

Although it is said that Lu Qi is the person arranged by the second master in the treasury, Hu Shi heard his daughter say that Lu Qi's lady came to join the poetry club, and once sang a minor tune in her hometown, which is very authentic. If Lu Qiniang is in the same township as her, she will also be in the same township as the eldest lady. The two knew each other, and it was very likely that before the second master used Lu Qi, there was a suspicion that Lu Qi deliberately approached the second master.

After the big shopkeeper of the Hu family bought the fake antiques, he checked them carefully, and actually found the workshop of the fake antiques, and peeked at the person in charge of the workshop. Hu lived in seclusion in Hangzhou for his daughter and did the antique business. The Han Painting Museum has been open for less than half a year, and the tricks to attract guests are endless. As a result, I was surprised that the head of the fake antique workshop turned out to be the shopkeeper of the Han Painting Museum, which was originally called Fangzheng.

Xia Su knew some of Zhao Qinghe's inferences, and what Hu said made his inferences more accurate. The relationship between the mastermind and the Zhao Mansion is bound to be close. Whether it is Mrs. Zhao or not, there must be factual evidence, not an intuitive feeling, or an accidental sentence of the country, which can be determined.

Xia Su put down his chopsticks, got up and poured a bowl of tea, still sitting back in his old seat, sipping and sighing.

She can't say that Mrs. Zhao is merciful and benevolent. As a wife and mother, Mrs. Zhao's selfishness is just more cleverly hidden than others. For her, for Zhao Qinghe, and Mrs. Zhao's gentleness and tolerance all have prerequisites and conditions, and she can see it very clearly.
