Chapter 887: Hearts Whisper
Fang Hongda is a very principled leading cadre, if it is someone else to give gifts, he will never accept it, when he first took office, there were cadres who came to visit him and gave him some gifts such as cigarettes, wine and tea, but he sternly refused. http:///
But the meaning of what Fang Yang gave was different, it was a gift from the younger generation to respect the elders. Fang Hongda regarded Fang Yang as his nephew from the bottom of his heart, so he never refused what the other party gave him, and accepted it happily.
This time was no exception, he was not hypocritical, and directly took Fang Yang's envelope with a smile.
Before Fang Hongda opened the envelope, Fang Xu said with a smile:
"That's right! Little comrade, I know that giving a gift to the secretary means that you have grown up......"
Fang Xu's status at home has risen sharply now, he didn't even dare to make an air in front of Fang Hongda before, but now he dares to make this kind of joke in front of Fang Hongda, which shows that Fang Hongda is still very satisfied with Fang Xu's expression recently.
"Fang Xu, your kid is fat now! Even your boss dares to ridicule! Fang Yang said with a smile.
Everyone immediately laughed, Fang Qiao put a cup of brewed tea in front of Fang Yang, and said with a smile:
"I know my brother best, and if he gives him some color, he will dare to open a dyeing shop. Fang Yang, you are his boss now, you have to discipline him for me, you know? ”
"With Sister Qiao's Shang Fang Sword, I will be able to manage Fang Xu obediently!" Fang Yang said with a smile.
"Xiao Fang! You can lead Xiao Xu to the right path, Auntie is very grateful to you! Qu Jing also smiled and said, "In the future, you have to remind Xiao Xu that you must not let him take a detour!" ”
Fang Hongda did not participate in everyone's discussion, and now he has unfolded the Shen Zhou landscape painting that was not framed at all, put on reading glasses and admired it carefully.
And Fang Xu also felt a little unbearable in the face of Fang Yang's front and back attacks, his eyes rolled, and he changed the topic:
"Boss Fang, my dad is an expert in painting and calligraphy collections, don't fool people with some things that don't go into the stream! That's absolutely impossible to escape his eyes! ”
"Do you still need to say it?" Fang Yang said angrily, "The ones given to Uncle Fang must be high-quality products!" ”
"Really?" Fang Xu asked leisurely, "Then how much did you spend on this painting?" ”
"Vulgar! Vulgar! Fang Yang said, "Painting is priceless, art is priceless!" Everything is measured by money, you are too money worshipper! ”
"It's useless to talk about it." Fang Xu was unmoved, "The value of art is often reflected in money. Tell us how much this painting costed! ”
Fang Yang smiled faintly and said:
"Seven or eight thousand!"
What Fang Yang didn't say was that seven or eight thousand was just the price of those two books, and this painting was tantamount to picking it up for nothing.
"Seven or eight thousand?" Fang Xu's eyes widened exaggeratedly and said, "Fang Yang, you're really embarrassed to take out your hand!" Are you also the boss with a net worth of tens of millions? It didn't cost seventy or eighty thousand, are you embarrassed to tell people that you bought a painting? ”
Fang Qiao's beautiful eyes also glanced at Fang Yang, although she didn't care how much the things Fang Yang gave were worth, but she also knew that her father had a very high vision, and he was not a rare collector of ordinary paintings. Fang Yang took such a "stall sale" to his father, it really doesn't matter?
At this time, Fang Hongda took off his reading glasses, glanced at Fang Xu lightly, and said:
"Xiao Xu, then I'll give you 80,000, you go and buy me a true painting of Shen Zhou and come back!"
Fang Xu choked suddenly, looking at the old man like this, he seemed to have a very high evaluation of this painting!
"Hey, Dad, don't bully me for not knowing how to draw!" Fang Xu smiled awkwardly and said, "Fang Yang, what is this...... Shen Zhou's paintings, are they very expensive? ”
Fang Yang smiled on the side and did not speak, while a glimmer of brilliance flashed in Fang Qiaomei's eyes, and he said with a smile:
"Xiao Xu, it's not too expensive! It seems that a painting by Shen Zhou was auctioned in the capital last year, and if I remember correctly, the transaction price at that time was 1.5 billion! Now that you have money, go buy one for your father......"
Fang Qiao has been engaged in culture-related industries for many years, and he still has a good understanding of the art market, when Fang Hongda said the word "Shen Zhou", Fang Qiao immediately recalled the auction that shocked the world.
"How much?" Fang Xu's mouth opened wide, and he muttered after a while, "Sister...... Are you sure it's 1500 million, not 15000000? ”
"What do you think?" Fang Qiao looked at Fang Xu with a smile and asked rhetorically.
"Good ...... Even if you sell me, I can't afford it! Fang Xu said.
At this time, Fang Yang smiled and said:
"Fang Xu, don't be frightened by Sister Qiao, the painting I gave Uncle Fang, although it is also Shen Zhou's work, the market value is far from 150 million."
Fang Hongda immediately said:
"It won't be too cheap. Fang Yang, did you really buy this painting for seven or eight thousand yuan? ”
"Yes, Uncle Fang." Fang Yang nodded and said, "It's in the flower and bird market on the edge of the West Lake, and it's from a small stall." ”
Fang Hongda couldn't help but admire when he heard this, and said:
"It's amazing, it's terrible...... Such a masterpiece was actually found by you from the stall. Fang Yang, your eyes are quite vicious! In the future, you can try to engage in art collection, and it will definitely have a great future! ”
Fang Yang hurriedly said modestly:
"Uncle Fang, I'm all lucky, and this kind of thing can happen every day! Besides, whether this painting is Shen Zhou's authentic work or not, I don't know the bottom in my heart! Doesn't that give you the palm of your hand? ”
"It must be the real thing!" Fang Hongda said with certainty, "Shen Zhou's painting style is very distinct, ordinary people can't imitate, and his calligraphy is also very distinctive, according to my judgment, this should be a painting made by Shen Zhou in middle age, at this time his painting skills have become more and more mature, the style is more obvious, this is a rare treasure!" ”
Fang Xu was always concerned about the price, and when he saw that the two were chatting hotly, he couldn't help but interject and ask:
"Dad, now that you're sure it's genuine, how much is this painting worth? You're an expert, you should have a spectrum in mind, right? ”
Fang Hongda glanced at Fang Xu and said lightly:
"No wonder Fang Yang said that you are vulgar! The value of this art treasure cannot be measured by money! ”
The same words, Fang Yang said it, Fang Xu immediately retorted, but after Fang Hongda finished speaking, he didn't have the guts, he just shrunk his neck and smiled.
However, Fang Hongda then said:
"If you look at the art market, the price of this small painting will be at least between three million and four million Chinese coins, which is still a conservative estimate!"
After speaking, Fang Hongda said to Fang Yang again:
"So...... Fang Yang, although I like this painting very much, I really can't accept it, because it's too valuable......"
"Uncle Fang, this is just a little bit of filial piety for the elders, you shouldn't use the set of self-discipline guidelines for civil servants to ask for it, right?" Fang Yang said, "Besides, no matter how valuable this painting is, it is also a pearl in my place, only in the hands of someone like you who knows how to paint, will it exude its due light!" ”
"Dad, Fang Yang's words are reliable! You have to take it! Fang Xu also said with a hippie smile, "This kid is now a big tyrant, what are millions of paintings?" Besides, didn't he only spend seven or eight thousand on this painting? ”
"Nonsense!" Fang Hongda's face sank and said, "Seven or eight thousand bought, isn't it Shen Zhou's real work?" ”
After speaking, Fang Hongda said to Fang Yang:
"Fang Yang! Uncle You already know what you want, but I really can't accept famous paintings worth three or four million. ”
Fang Yang opened his mouth, but Fang Hongda didn't wait for Fang Yang to speak, he waved his hand and said:
"Otherwise, I can have this painting under my control, but I have also collected a lot of calligraphy and paintings over the years, although the value may not be as high as your Shen Zhou landscape map, but there is no shortage of fine products. I'll pick one or two to give back to you, just as an exchange between Tibetan friends, do you think it's okay? ”
can be called a "Tibetan friend" by Fang Hongda, this evaluation is not high.
Fang Yang glanced at Fang Qiao quickly, smiled at Fang Hongda and said:
"Uncle Fang, a gentleman doesn't take people's favor, you are a person who loves painting, those collections are your treasures, I don't dare to ask for them. If you really think that this landscape map is not suitable to accept now, then you should borrow it from me to enjoy it, and when you feel that the time is ripe, it is not too late to officially accept it. ”
Fang Hongda paused for a moment, and then said with a wry smile:
"You, you...... Isn't this a means used by those bribe-givers to curry favor with ** 'elegant officials'? You kid actually used it on me! ”
Fang Hongda was completely joking, he naturally wouldn't think that Fang Yang gave him a gift to bribe. If it weren't for the fact that the value of this painting was too high, even if it was something worth hundreds of thousands, he wouldn't have said so much, and just accepted it.
And when Fang Qiao heard Fang Yang's words, his heart trembled, his beautiful eyes flowed, and his spirit was bright.
These words sounded nothing special to Fang Hongda and the others, but Fang Qiao understood the meaning conveyed by Fang Yang: Compared with the precious calligraphy and paintings collected by Fang Hongda, Fang Qiao is obviously more precious.
As for Fang Yang's statement that he would lend the painting to Fang Hongda for appreciation, and when he felt that the time was ripe, he would officially accept it, it would be even more obvious, this "ripe time" naturally refers to the time when the relationship between him and Fang Qiao will be revealed to the world, and then Fang Hongda will become Fang Yang's father-in-law, so he can naturally accept this precious gift.
Not to mention millions of paintings, even if it is tens of millions, hundreds of millions, as long as the son-in-law is filial to the old man, it can be directly accepted.
This guy talks so many twists and turns, who can understand it! Fang Qiao thought with a hint of sweetness in his heart.
However, Fang Yang came to the door with such a valuable gift, which showed that Fang Yang attached great importance to her, and Fang Yang also expressed his love for her in such an obscure way in front of her parents and younger brother......
