ps: In the last few hours, I am in a hurry to get support for a monthly pass, please.

"In other words, we are not sure whether the content of the travelogue described in the manuscript is from Xu Xiake."

Wei Ye sighed: "After all, there is no seal of Xu Xiake on the manuscript, nor is there his signature, it is just a simple travelogue. Even if the content form is indeed similar to Xu Xiake's travelogue, it cannot be used as direct evidence. ”

"That's ...... too"

Qi Xiang thought for a moment and nodded: "No wonder there is a controversy. ”

"Of course, you can't deny that it's fake." Wei Ye said helplessly: "After all, Xu Xiake traveled all over the country back then, but he was in distress several times on the way, and his luggage and diary were lost many times. ”

What we see today is only 400,000 words of Xu Xiake's travelogue, which is only a small part of his diary. Therefore, some people think that those few pages of the manuscript are the lost diary of that year. ”

Wei Ye smiled bitterly: "However, this is just speculation, it may be just a possibility after all, and it can't be sure that it is the truth." Therefore, everyone was entangled, and simply included things in the exhibits of the painting and calligraphy awards, hoping that through everyone's brainstorming, a clear result would be obtained. ”

"But I didn't expect that the thing was lost."

Wei Ye couldn't help but shake his head: "It's just a few pages of remnants, even if it's really the original manuscript of Xu Xiake's notes, but it's impossible to say how precious it is, it's worthless, and it has a certain research significance." If you can find it, of course, it is the best, but if you can't find it...... If you say something unpleasant, it really won't make a difference. ”

"That's right." Qi Xiang agreed.

Even if Xu Xiake is a celebrity, his fame is largely in terms of geographical exploration, and he is a famous geographer and traveler, not a literati in the traditional sense.

The original manuscript of his notes, although also valuable. But at best, it can sell tens of millions, and then it will come to an end. Compared with other precious calligraphy and paintings, which are often millions or tens of millions, they will definitely not affect the overall situation.

"So, even if you lose those things, it doesn't matter."

At this time, Wei Ye concluded: "As long as everyone works together, this calligraphy and painting award can still be held as planned, and you don't have to worry about it." Wait two more days, and there should be news. The dust settled. ”

"Master Wei, that's what you said."

The huge boss hurriedly agreed: "Such a grand event is only held once a year, and I must support it......"

"Just support."

Wei Ye smiled: "Boss Pang, come and drink tea!" ”

"Thank you, thank you!"

The huge boss hurriedly took the tea handed over by Wei Ye, and said, "Wei Ye, have you had breakfast, why don't I make the east and go to the restaurant next?" Listen to people. Huanghualou's fresh soup dumplings seem to be very good, let's try them together? ”

“…… You people, it's boring. ”

didn't wait for Wei Ye to respond. The young man next to him seemed to be a little impatient, his palms supporting his cheeks, and his elbows propping up the armrests of the chair. Pouted and said: "I came to visit early in the morning, and I talked a lot of nonsense, and I didn't touch on substantive issues at all. Isn't that interesting? ”

"Ahem......"

was broken by someone, and the huge boss suddenly became dumb, and subconsciously looked at Qi Xiang, with a look of help in his eyes.

"Haha."

Qi Xiang smiled and said calmly: "Master Wei, I can't hide it, the purpose of our visit today, in addition to the trivial matters just mentioned, there is another serious matter I want to discuss with you, but I feel very presumptuous and don't know how to speak." ”

"It's okay, just say it." Wei Ye vaguely understood, and said with a smile: "I'm not a tiger, what are you afraid of, just say it boldly if you have something, don't hesitate." ”

"Actually, it's not complicated to talk about it...... Qi Xiang groaned, and then said bluntly: "I heard that Wei Ye has a calligraphy and painting of Xu Qingteng in his hand?" ”

"Oh!"

As expected, Wei Ye smiled, and knew in his heart: "Yes, what, what do you like?" ”

"Wei Ye said with a smile, even if I like it, I can't take it down."

Qi Xiang waved his hand, pointed to the huge boss next to him, and said with a smile: "It's this big man, since he saw Xu Qingteng's true handwritings, he has been thinking about it." ”

"Yes, it's me."

The huge boss was not stupid, and immediately nodded, with a smile on his face: "Master Wei, I really like that painting, I hope you can give me things, I am grateful." ”

"This ......"

Wei Ye pondered for a moment, and looked embarrassed: "Two, it's not that I deliberately shirk, it's mainly the painting ......"

"The painting is mine."

At this moment, the young man next to him spoke: "If you want to buy it, I am willing to sell it." However, this price cannot be less, say, what price are you going to quote? ”

"Huh?"

For a moment, both Wei Ye and the huge boss were stunned.

"Little Leopard ......"

Wei Ye frowned, and was about to say something.

But the young man, who was faster, preemptively said, "Grandpa, I told you early in the morning. I brought something over and asked you to bring it to participate in that big prize, the purpose is very clear, it is to do publicity and sell it at a good price. ”

"Now that someone has come to the door, it's good to hear his offer."

The young man said indifferently: "As long as the price is right, who sells is not selling." ”

When the huge boss heard this, he was immediately pleasantly surprised. I didn't expect things to go so smoothly. If he had known, why would he be so troublesome and drag people to call Qi Xiang over.

As soon as this thought flashed, the huge boss smiled and asked, "What do you call this little brother?" ”

"Surname Ge!" The young man said casually: "Ge Bao!"

"Brother Leopard......" The huge boss called very kindly.

However, when the young man heard this, his expression was a little cold, and he didn't look very happy.

The huge boss looked at his face, and was suddenly stunned, and he couldn't figure out what he had done wrong.

Suddenly, Qi Xiang asked, "Hug Puzi?" ”

"Huh?"

The young man was stunned for a moment, and then nodded: "Yes......"

"What?"

The huge boss didn't understand, and he was confused, and he didn't know what dumb riddle the two were playing.

"I've changed my mind."

The young man suddenly said, "I won't sell my paintings to you." ”

"Ah......h

The huge boss was unexpected, dumbfounded, and the whole person was stunned. It's a good thing to say, why did you turn your face in a blink of an eye. It's faster than flipping through a book, it's too capricious.

Qi Xiang sighed silently, but he knew the reason. People call Ge Bao, not a leopard of a leopard, nor an abalone of abalone, but a hug of Puzi. The huge boss was ignorant, and actually asked someone to "hug" his brother and look for death.

"You can go......"

At this time, Ge Bao was too lazy to deal with the huge boss, but looked at Qi Xiang: "What about you." Want to buy my paintings? ”

"Uh......"

Qi Xiang was a little hesitant, although the huge boss on the side, although he didn't know why he was kicked out inexplicably, but he was not slow to react, and when he heard this, he hurriedly gave Qi Xiang a look.

Qi Xiang understood, hesitated, then nodded and smiled: "Brother Ge, whether to buy this painting or not." It's hard for me to make a decision right now, if you don't mind, can you let me see the painting first? ”

"Okay, you come with me." Ge Bao stood up. He tilted his head and said, "Grandpa, I took him up to see the paintings, you go to have breakfast first, anyway, someone has a treat." ”

Wei Ye wanted to speak and stopped. turned into a helpless smile: "Got it, you can go." ”

"Come ......"

Ge Bao beckoned to Qi Xiang and led him out of the living room. Go back into the house. After passing through a long corridor, in an attic next to the backyard, there is an elegant study.

Ge Bao pushed the door in, pulled out a bamboo chair and sat down, crossed Erlang's legs, looked at Qi Xiang with a scrutinizing gaze, and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" ”

"Me?" Qi Xiang's eyes blinked: "Didn't you say it just now?" ”

"I'm not asking about your name, it's about where you come from." Ge hugged his right hand into a fist and gently rubbed the palm of his left hand with the ring, and the movement was very regular.

"Threatened?"

Qi Xiang looked at it and was sure that this was a threat. He thought for a moment and asked, "What do you want to know about my origin?" ”

"Teacher, origin."

Ge Bao snorted: "You have figured out all the details of me, but I don't know anything about you, it's too unfair." ”

"I don't understand this......"

Qi Xiang shook his head and said: "I just know that you are the grandson of Wei Ye, surnamed Ge Mingbao, and I don't know much about the others, so I can't figure out the details." ”

"Load, keep loading garlic." Ge Bao said disdainfully: "Pretending not to be like some, half-concealed, like a joke." ”

"How?" Qi Xiang was a little curious.

"You've come in until now, and the focus of your attention is not painting at all." Ge Bao said calmly: "It's those things that have been lost and not recovered, especially the fragments of Xu Xiake's travels......"

"It's normal to pay attention to this." Qi Xiang had an innocent expression on his face: "I've always been more curious, and I like to inquire around, and it doesn't hinder you from doing anything." ”

"Hehe......" Ge Bao sneered: "Do you know what I hate the most in my life?" ”

Qi Xiang thought for a while and agreed: "I hate ...... too"

"......" Ge Bao looked a little depressed, he didn't say what he hated, Qi Xiang followed and yelled, this kind of behavior is really annoying.

Qi Xiang smiled and added: "I mean, I also hate people lying. ”

"Humph......"

Ge Bao suddenly felt as if he was being led by the nose, which made him very unhappy: "Don't be pretentious, I can't talk about you." But I also want to warn you that I prefer to use my fists rather than my tongue......"

"Bang!"

Ge hugged and slammed his fist on the table, and a teacup bounced into the air, and with a wave of his hand, the teacup broke in the middle and became in half.

In an instant, he picked up half of them, and only then did he want to throw them at Qi Xiang, only to find that there was no longer Qi Xiang in the direction of the door of the study.

After a while, Qi Xiang's voice came from afar in the corridor: "Brother Ge, your painting is very good, but the price is too high." I'm going to think about it and come back another day......"

“…… Depend on! ”

Ge Bao was speechless, but there was a little more thought in his eyes: "Timid as a mouse...... However, the strength should not be underestimated! (To be continued......)
