**************
Thirty dollars in hand, the stall owner immediately pushed the gold-painted box in front of Jin Muchencai. ※%
Jin Muchen was still not satisfied, but looked at the oil painting placed in the corner of the table again, and then asked the stall owner to arrive.
"Dude, do you want to buy this painting, it just so happens that my restaurant still lacks a painting like this."
"Oh, you like it, that's fifty dollars."
This guy said with a smile, in fact, he just came to try his luck today, those plates were really brought back from China by his grandfather, and he really didn't know if they were true or not.
As for this box and the oil painting, they were bought when I went to someone else's house to participate in the garage sale, and they didn't cost much, and the painting only cost thirty yuan that year.
It has been hanging in his family's restaurant for five or six years, and this change of hands costs fifty yuan, and he earns twenty.
Jin Muchen didn't have time to talk to him at all, he knew that the guy in front of him didn't understand what an antique was at all, he was just a pure layman.
Fifty yuan was auctioned, and the oil painting was also in hand, and the stall owner didn't have the heart to waste time with Jin Muchen at all, so he packed up his things and left.
Because he was really a little weak-hearted, at this time, the Japanese over there had already entered a state of madness, especially Komatsu, who had already spewed the little white-faced translator all over his body, but he didn't mean to stop at all.
In case people are really annoyed at that time, they will come back with those plates and return them, and they will have to entangle with themselves for a while, and everyone will see it at that time, but it will damage their reputation, and they must know that there are still a lot of tatters at home, and they will come here to set up stalls to sell things in the future.
After all, it's much better to set up a stall to sell things here than to have a garage sale at home.
In case of bad reputation, who will come to buy his own things in the future, so this guy will pack up his things and withdraw directly.
Jin Muchen happily hugged the gold-painted box, asked Candace to help hold the oil painting, and walked to the door.
However, at this time, because there were so many people gathered around the Japanese, it was not so easy to go out.
"Please, you teach him a lesson, don't be good here, it's already caused an obstacle to everyone, and it has brought so much inconvenience, don't you know at all? Are you still planning to let someone else do business? ”
Finally squeezed into the crowd, Jin Muchen deliberately shouted loudly at those Japanese, and there was immediately a burst of coaxing around him.
He was followed by the stall owners who set up stalls here, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and there was still more than an hour to close the stalls.
I was expecting a good harvest today, but these Japanese people are making such a fuss, and customers are gathered around to see the excitement, so there are still people to buy things?
Those stall owners have long been dissatisfied, but no one took the lead in standing up, and at this time, Jin Muchen's voice can be regarded as helping them a lot.
At this time, Komatsu also happened to be a little tired, but he hadn't lost his breath yet, someone interrupted him like this, he felt a little unhappy, and turned his head to see that the guy who took the lead was the guy who brought the little white-faced translator to the pit before.
His heart was even more unhappy at that time, and Xiao Song, who had a gloomy face, originally wanted to scold a few more words, but when his eyes swept to the box in Jin Muchen's hand, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The style of the box, as well as the pattern on the box, he is too familiar with it, isn't this our Japanese specialty?
And looking at the style of the box, as well as the pattern on the box, isn't this box simple?
It's just that there are a lot of people at this time, and the guy looked at his side with obvious schadenfreude in his eyes, and Komatsu didn't feel good about putting down his face and going forward to talk to others.
Watanabe, who looked a little like Ken Takakura, had a gloomy face at this time, and came to Komatsu's side and whispered a few words to Komatsu, while Komatsu grabbed Watanabe's sleeve and whispered to him.
While listening, Watanabe turned his head to look at Jin Muchen's side, and his eyes were especially focused on the black lacquered gold wood box in Jin Muchen's hand.
Jin Muchen remained silent, looking at where the two were muttering, and the two of them finished muttering for a while.
Then the Japanese began to bow around like a crowd of onlookers, bowing and apologizing at the same time, speaking English with a thick accent, saying to everyone that they had lost their temper before, delayed everyone's business, and they were sorry.
Seeing that the Japanese were like this, it was obvious that there was no excitement and beauty, and the crowd around them quickly dispersed.
Jin Muchen took Candace and strode out of the greenhouse, and when he came back, he went straight to the hotel, put his things away when he arrived at the hotel, and then took Candace to the restaurant downstairs for a good meal.
After coming back, he went to Candace's room to play around for a while, and Jin Muchen was reluctantly kicked out by Candace and returned to his room.
When he entered the room, the first thing Jin Muchen did was to take out the oil painting, and then carefully inspected it.
This oil painting is not in very good condition, and the area is not large, only the size of A4 paper, the style of painting is realistic, the painting is a little blonde girl, frolicking on the grass, the painting is very good.
Just looking at the style, it should belong to the works of the Eastern European painting school, if it weren't for the recent knowledge about European oil painting, Jin Muchen would not be able to distinguish it.
However, the reason why he won this oil painting is mainly related to the light that flashes from time to time in this painting.
He took the painting to the light and looked at it carefully for a long time, but he couldn't find the place where the legendary signature was.
Generally, European painters, after completing their works, will leave their signatures on the corners of the paintings, or some people will, their signatures, obscure paintings, can be easily found by knowledgeable people.
He had paid attention to the corners of this oil painting before, and he didn't find a signature, but the light that loomed on this painting from time to time showed that this painting was not ordinary, but now he couldn't find the signature, and he couldn't find the source of this painting, which made Jin Muchen scratch his head a little.
Could it be that there is something wrong with your eyes? Impossible!
Or is the signature of this painting somewhere else? Thinking of this, Jin Muchen simply found a fruit knife and pried open the frame.
Sure enough, after removing the frame, I found clues on the back of the painting, and in the lower right corner of the back of the painting, there is a long list of distorted words, which look a little yellowed, it should be some years.
However, these words are not English, what kind of language is it, Jin Muchen didn't understand it, he took a picture of these words with his mobile phone, and then googled it on the computer, only to understand that these words were Hungarian.
Roughly it means: To my dearest daughter, Alice!
And finally, underneath, is the signature of the person who wrote this passage, Cass. Arnosh.
It seems that this person is not only the person who wrote this passage, but also the author of the painting.
Jin Muchen has also made up a lot of knowledge about oil painting recently, and if he wants to talk about European oil painting masters, he can also name a few.
As far as he knows, there are only a few famous Hungarian oil painters, such as the earlier Monkács, the modern Sandolfi, and the likes of Saray, these painters are also well-known in Europe and even the world, of course, compared with Monet, Van Gogh, and Picasso in Western Europe, they cannot be compared at all.
But their works are still very popular, after all, these Hungarian painters are still quite famous among the realists.
Cass. Although Jin Muchen didn't know who he was, Arnosh was fortunate to have Google to use, and this Google knew the origin of the painter.
It turns out this Cass. Arnos is still well-known in Hungary, he is one of the well-known Hungarian painters who inherited the essence of Monkacs's hyper-realistic painting style since Monkács.
After the end of World War II, Hungary became the sphere of influence of the former Soviet Union, because of his name, most of his paintings were collected by the dignitaries of the former Soviet Union, so few of them flowed into the Western European market.
The Hungarian government also attached great importance to the works of his national treasure painter, and even after his death, a museum was set up in his name to collect the paintings he left behind.
So this Cass. There are not many works on the market, but his paintings are quite sought-after.
You must know that since Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso and others became famous, most of the oil painters in Western Europe tend to abstract paintings, because such oil paintings are very popular in the market.
But after all, not everyone likes abstract paintings, there are still many people who like realist oil paintings, and there are really not many painters in Europe who can paint realist oil paintings well.
Because of the relationship between the painting style and faction, most of the painters who can paint the realism well now come from Eastern Europe, or a few small countries in Central Europe, which is also this Cass. The main reason why Arnoche's paintings are sought after.
First, his works have a strong realistic style, that is, after Monkács, another realist master, and secondly, because his paintings are very scarce in circulation on the market, so his paintings are very sought after in the current oil painting market.
And the painting in Jin Muchen's hand should have been given to his youngest daughter back then, and I don't know how it spread to the United States.
Don't look at this painting, it is only the size of A4 paper, but if it is taken out and sold, it will definitely not be less than 100,000 US dollars, and Jin Muchen only spent 50 yuan to buy it, this transaction is a big profit!.
