Chapter 685: Turning the Face

Figuring out what was going on, Li Yi frowned,

"Director Li, there are not many good things in your personal hands, you can borrow them from other museums that have not participated in the tour, and you will ...... when the time comes."

"Oh, Brother Li, if only it was as simple as you thought! Let's not talk about the difficulty of borrowing things from museums, as far as the tour itself is concerned, you would rather borrow my things than let me participate, why should I cooperate with you? However, there are many museums that actually participate, and the security and cost are all big problems......"

Li Yi nodded silently, it turned out that this was the case...... However, he still didn't want to borrow it, because as Director Li said, security is a big problem! Even if it's safe, what if it's damaged or damaged? They are all old objects from hundreds of years ago, all of them are delicate and expensive, and there is really an accident but there is no place to cry!

"Okay, okay, you're obviously making it difficult for a strong man, Xiao Li ignore him, let's talk about our business! That's right, I've been studying the artistic achievements of calligraphy and painting in the Sui and Tang dynasties recently, and I want to write a paper on this aspect, but as you know, there has been relatively little information in this area, so I want to use the two works of Zhan Ziqian and Wei Xian to study it......"

"Hey Guan Lao, you don't pay attention to this, why can't I borrow it if you can borrow it?"

"Don't worry, listen to me! One is that the time I need is relatively short, and the second is that if it is inconvenient, I can also go to your side to study with you, Xiao Li, I can give you a third author's signature when the time comes! ”

Li Yi nodded, compared to Director Li's borrowing, Guan Lao's proposal is indeed more operable, as for whether to sign or not, this is nothing, and he is not engaged in academics. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Okay, everything is over, let Xiao Li decide slowly, let's eat! Declare in advance that no one is allowed to mention this matter in the future, otherwise, Xiao Li can directly refuse! ”

Although both of them knew Zhong Haoqing and Hu Jinquan, it was the first time they had dealt with Li Yi, and they both knew that their requirements were a bit difficult for a strong man, so they didn't expect to make Li Yi nod their heads, but just talk to him first, and in private, there was still a lot of work to be done.

They are all in the same circle, especially Guan Lao and Director Li, who are at least the old people who have been working for more than ten or twenty years and finally climbed all the way to the top of the country, and a lot of the information they know is not something that Tan Moxuan, a person who has been working silently at the bottom, can grasp.

Therefore, Li Yi not only heard a lot of fresh gossip rumors, but also took the opportunity to ask a lot of things about the museum.

"Old Tan, I've been thinking about the museum lately, did you think about it too simply......

Li Yi talked about all the previous concerns, Tan Moxuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, he didn't know much about the museum, even if he gave advice, most of them were not professional, it was better to hide it.

However, if the museum is not established, the exchange cannot proceed, and this is ......

"Li Yi, why don't you ask Ma Dashen for advice?"

"That's right, I didn't think about the country before, so naturally I don't need to trouble his old man, but now that I have considered it, then I don't have to use it in vain, Cheng, I'll go to him when I go back to Beijing!"

The two of them rested in the hotel for a while, and then went to the exhibition hall to help Shi Chongxuan for a while, contributing some popularity, and rushed to Liu Mingxin and Liu Lao's date together.

Liu Mingxin is very famous in the appraisal of calligraphy and painting, and unlike other calligraphy and painting appraisals, everyone is generally familiar with calligraphy and painting, and his own calligraphy and painting level is difficult to reach the elegant hall. But what is very strange is that his sense of the artistic conception of calligraphers and painters in the past dynasties is very accurate, especially the ancient paintings of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and he has basically never heard of his eye-catching news.

The restaurant for dinner in the evening was booked by Liu Mingxin, and it was not far from Tianfanglou at noon, and when Li Yi and the others arrived, Liu Mingxin was already waiting in the private room.

"Come, let me introduce to you, this is President Fang Hongfang, and this is Tan Moxuan Xiao Tan, who is a very good appraiser. This is the Li Yi I told you before, Xiao Li not only has a high level of appraisal, but also has a high attainment in calligraphy and French painting, I heard that this young calligrapher competition won the second prize? ”

Liu Mingxin first smiled and introduced them to a middle-aged man with a Chinese character face with him, and after a few polite words to each other, they sat down separately, and then all kinds of dishes were served like water, and the Fang Zong took out 4 bottles of 20-year-old Moutai in one go.

"It's fate to be able to get together, let's have a good drink today, and strive to kill all 4 bottles!"

"Hehe, Xiao Li, Xiao Tan, come, you're welcome, Mr. Fang is also his own person, everyone has fun today!"

Seeing that Old Man Liu unceremoniously picked up the wine glass in front of him, Li Yi smiled helplessly, Fang is always your own person, but I'm not!

Anyway, with Liu Mingxin's status in this industry, he has a cup, not to mention Li Yi, even if Zhong Haoqing is present, he has to give face. Therefore, Li Yi and Tan Moxuan also stood up happily, and as soon as a few people clinked their glasses, three coins of white wine entered their stomachs.

When the wine was half-drunk, Liu Mingxin asked seemingly unintentionally, and first provoked the topic,

"Xiao Li, have you seen all those ancient paintings of your master?"

"I've seen it all."

"Oh......"

Li Yi couldn't guess the purpose of Liu Mingxin's invitation to him, and when he finally mentioned the painting, he couldn't help but prepare. Unexpectedly, he just said a simple "oh", and then stopped talking, and Li Yi was a little unclear for a while, but it was not easy to ask, so he had to eat with his head bored.

"Teacher Xiao Li, I don't know what you are going to do with those calligraphy and paintings?"

After a while, Mr. Fang asked this question again, and Li Yi's heart moved, and he probably guessed the purpose of Liu Mingxin's invitation to him.

"Mr. Fang, you are polite, just call me Xiao Li. This time, these calligraphy and paintings are rare treasures, and I plan to collect them myself. ”

Although Li Yi couldn't say anything about his purchase after thinking about it, the museum didn't say anything about it, and if something happened in the future, it was easier to offend people, so he had to retreat to the second.

"Oh, collect it yourself...... Teacher Li, there is a sentence I don't know whether to say or not......"

Li Yi smiled bitterly, I don't know if I should say it, don't say it! But it can't be helped, this is a sentence that Chinese people love to use very much, and it is often followed by something that should not be said.

"You see, these works are very precious, and anyone who likes them can't wait to hold them firmly in their hands, which is human nature. However, after all, collecting has to pay attention to a cost, which is too much, right? It's okay to collect one or two of these, but six at a time......"

Li Yi couldn't help but smile when he saw how difficult he said, and said directly:

"I understand what Mr. Fang means, but I'm sorry, I don't have this plan yet. In this way, today we also know each other, if I want to transfer in the future, I must be the first to notify you, what do you think? ”

Li Yi directly blocked the conversation, and very vaguely pointed out that this is the first time the two have met, so don't make it difficult for you to be strong.

"Hehe, Teacher Xiao Li is really refreshing! However, I don't want so much, you can just give me one, just one, Wei Xian's "Spring River Fishing Map" on the line! ”

Fang Hong didn't care about what Li Yi said later, and said what he wanted to say in one go. Seeing that Li Yi was still about to refuse, Liu Mingxin smiled and said slowly:

"Xiao Li, you might as well listen to Xiao Fang's offer, if you are not sincere, it will not be too late to refuse."

"Yes, yes, I will give 50 million for this painting!"

Li Yi was taken aback, and the first offer was 50 million? It seems that they are indeed quite sincere, but ......

He shook his head a little helplessly and said:

"Mr. Liu, Mr. Fang, I really didn't plan to shoot these works, so I ......"

"Hehe, Xiao Li, the price of 50 million is not low, don't look at the auction market, there are often sky-high prices, in fact, everyone understands what is going on. Besides, you are still so young, Yanjing consumption is high, with these 50 million, buy a suite, and then bring the old people in the family, how comfortable is it with Hemeimei? ”

Seeing that Liu Mingxin said that he didn't sell Li Yi to him because the price was low, Tan Moxuan couldn't help it,

"Liu Lao, Li Yi has already had a house, just on the edge of the South Third Ring Road, and he is not short of money."

"Hehe, if you have a house, you can buy another set, the house price in Yanjing is rising so fast, and it is also very good to use it for investment. Besides, with money, you can also improve your living environment, such as buying a villa or something......"

"Old Liu, what Li Yi bought is a villa!"

"Can you stop talking so much nonsense when you step on a horse!"

Inexplicably, Liu Mingxin became angry all of a sudden, and his voice was so loud that not only startled the other three, but even he himself.

"Humph!"

Li Yi glanced at Tan Moxuan, who was embarrassed, his face turned cold, and he stood up suddenly.

"Thank you two for your hospitality, let's get here first today, we still have something to do, let's go first."

"Oh, look at this......"

Fang Hong stretched out his hand to stop him, but was glared back by Liu Mingxin, who was flushed. Immediately afterwards, Liu Mingxin stared at Li Yi's back like a leopard that wanted to choose someone to devour, and asked loudly at the moment when he was about to walk out of the room:

"55 million, sell or not?"

"Don't sell much!"

Li Yi didn't even stop his footsteps, and walked away without looking back. In the private room, Fang Hong patted his forehead in annoyance, turned his head, and was suddenly stunned.

He saw that Liu Mingxin, who was still angry just now, was actually smiling as if nothing had happened, and he couldn't help but be confused:

"Liu Lao ......"

"Hehe, Xiao Fang, don't worry, I'm in a bit of a hurry about this, and I believe that those paintings are real based on a video."

Seeing Fang Hong's uncertain face, he smiled:

"I just remembered now, how could such a coincidence happen? How many years have others not found out, but he can tell through a crack that there is something hidden inside? Are they all such precious ancient paintings? ”

"Huh? What do you mean, Mr. Liu...... Are they cheating?! (To be continued.) )
