With a bottom in his heart, Jin Muchen quickly put away the painting, then came out of the toilet again, returned to the front of the coffee table, then sat on the sofa, picked up a magnifying glass, and pretended to look at it for a while.

Then he put down the magnifying glass in his hand, leaned back on the sofa, reached out and began to pinch the bridge of his nose, he stopped moving so suddenly, it really made Chris not know what to ask him.

And he looked so profound, Chris was really embarrassed to disturb him, and after a few minutes, this guy finally put down his hand, and then looked up at Chris and said.

"If I'm not mistaken, this painting should be the "Autumn Pond Picture" of Zhao Danian in the Northern Song Dynasty, right?"

And after hearing Jin Muchen's judgment, Chris immediately couldn't help but reach out and start slapping his face, he really underestimated the heroes of the world, I really didn't see that such a rude and strong man with five big and three rough was really a master of antique appraisal.

You must know the name Zhao Danian, even if it is an antique expert in China, not many people know it, because the era when he was born is too inch.

At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, and after him, he also had a cousin who became an emperor.

Although in terms of artistic achievements, he is actually much higher than his relatives who became emperors, but the point is that ordinary people don't know this.

When people mention the last years of the Northern Song Dynasty, those guys will definitely think of the tragic Emperor Wenqing, as well as his good Master Li, plus those legends such as Liangshan heroes, as for who this Zhao Danian is, I am afraid that people in the literary and artistic circles really don't know.

In addition, it is also because there are too few heirloom works of this Zhao Danian, so that even if he is recorded about him in the history books of the Song Dynasty, and his evaluation is also very high, but modern antique appraisers do not know much about him, the reason is very simple, because his heirloom works are too few.

No one has seen his works, so it is impossible to judge his works.

It can be said that this Zhao Danian is a painter who thinks he is very famous, but he is also relatively very obscure, and there are really not many people in the antique circle who know him and his works.

And the guy in front of him can actually see that this painting is Zhao Danian's work, which shows that he is not a pure gangster, but still has some level.

So Chris, I can't help but applaud him, but Jesse doesn't know who Zhao Danian is, and he doesn't know much about the value of his works.

Seeing such a situation at this time, she only had one concept, that is, this painting, after Jin Muchen's appraisal, must be true, but how much it is worth is still to be calculated.

"This Mr. Chen, really a master, I'm sorry, I was abrupt before, it was too rude, I would like to express my most sincere apologies to you."

This Chris has to say that he is much stronger than his younger brother Martin, whether it is true or not, years of gentlemanly education have allowed him to know how to write the word demeanor.

At this time, he actually apologized to Jin Muchen, which made Jin Muchen not expect that when he looked at this guy, he didn't seem to be so annoying, if it wasn't for the fact that he had such a period of Liangzi before, this guy would be a friend who could be worth dating, but unfortunately it was impossible.

"Who is Zhao Danian? Are his paintings valuable? ”

Jin Muchen didn't have time to praise each other with Chris, and at this time, Jesse also pulled him aside, and then asked him in a low voice.

"Zhao Danian was a famous painter in the Northern Song Dynasty of China, and this painting should be his authentic work. There are not many of his paintings in the world, and until now, the recognized treasures seem to be the original ones that were stolen from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. I had never seen this in public before, you wait, I remembered, I had seen the introduction of the Fourrier Art Gallery before, and I really wanted to see this work in their brochure a few years ago, but the painting shown in the brochure at that time was just a black and white photograph of an old man, and I saw that the picture was written, and the comment on this painting was an anonymous painting from the 17th century... ”

Jin Muchen said to Jesse, this Freel brother has offended him, some time ago, one of these two brothers teased Candace and was taught a lesson by him, and the other went to his store to buy and sell, and in the end he didn't succeed, and then he actually found that gangster Harry, and took a killer to his house to rob.

If it weren't for Capote's chance to come to his shop that day, something big would definitely happen that day, so Jin Muchen hated this Freel brother to the core.

As a man who has revenge, of course he pondered how to take revenge on the two brothers afterwards, but unfortunately at that time, the two brothers had fled New York and couldn't find a trace.

But Jin Muchen pondered the idea that these two brothers were from a famous family, and they could run away from the monk and not run away from the temple, so he specially investigated the old background of the two brothers.

Especially after knowing that the ancestor of these two brothers was actually a guy who specially relied on smuggling antique calligraphy and paintings from China and then donating them to the U.S. government to keep their family alive, Jin Muchen had the idea of going to the art museum left by their ancestors.

So he began to collect information about the museum's collection on a large scale through the Internet and the purchase of the museum's brochures.

After collecting those materials, Jin Muchen knew that this art museum really collected a lot of good things.

The more I looked at him, the more tempted I became, and I originally planned to follow the experience of visiting the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston last year and patronize this art museum.

But later, considering that this art museum is located in Washington, D.C., the geographical location is more sensitive, it is the capital of the United States, and this art museum has now been upgraded to the national museum of the United States, and the security measures are not comparable to those private museums, he did not act rashly.

I'm going to wait and see for a while, or wait until I find a good opportunity to do it.

Unexpectedly, today in San Francisco, he actually came across such a painting, which was once collected in the art store, and there was an introduction to this painting in the promotional album of that year, but the American appraisers were obviously unreliable, and they did not identify the authenticity of this painting at all, but only thought that this painting was a painting of the seventeenth century, thinking that it was a painting by an unknown Chinese painter.

And if it were someone else, after reading the brochure, they might have forgotten the photo of this painting a long time ago, but who is Jin Muchen, he has an unforgettable brain.

I really didn't think about it before, but after concluding that this painting was the work of Zhao Danian of the Northern Song Dynasty, after thinking of the identity of this Chris, many memories were like a tide, and all of them came to his mind.

"You're saying the painting is part of the collection of the Frill and Sackler Art Gallery?"

Jesse was very keen to grasp the key to the information revealed by Jin Muchen, and Jin Muchen was a little hesitant at this time.

"If I'm not mistaken, I've seen a five-year-old brochure for the Frell and Sackler Art Gallery, with a black-and-white photograph of the painting. And now that this painting actually appears here, you must know that the Furell and Sackler Art Museum is now the Asian Pavilion of the National Museum of the United States, and the rules were set by Frill himself, who donated it back then, that is, his art gallery is only allowed to enter and exit, and all the works in it are not allowed to be auctioned. And over the years, this art museum has probably followed this rule, so how did this painting come about, hehe, I think you should know better than me... ”

Jin Muchen had something to say, and then gave Jesse a look, Jesse immediately understood, feeling that you are such a sanctimonious virtue, but unfortunately it is a rabbit who likes to eat grass next to the nest, you are a guard and a thief!

"Okay, Chris, how much are you going to mortgage this painting, how much do you want to borrow."

After exchanging a few words with Jin Muchen, Jesse already had a bottom in his heart, and then came to Chris with a smile and asked him.

Chris was quite apprehensive when he saw the two of them discuss before, and he didn't know if they were willing to admit the authenticity of this painting, but now he was very happy to see that Jesse actually agreed to use this painting as a mortgage and gave himself a loan.

"The origin of this painting, I think Mr. Chen has told you before, is the work of the Chinese Song Dynasty painter Zhao Danian, he thought it was a very outstanding painter, but unfortunately there are not many works handed down, and there was one in the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. It's a pity that it was stolen last year, so this one in my hand has become his heirloom, so the value of this painting will definitely be very high. Well, I'm going to mortgage $30 million with this painting. ”

Chris actually calculated the number in his heart, and after boasting in front of Jesse, he finally reported a number, but when Jesse heard it, he laughed out loud, which made Chris very embarrassed, what do you mean.

"Come on, Chris, don't think I don't know. This painting is indeed a treasure of Zhao Danian, and it is indeed his unique heirloom, but so what? Can you tell me how you came to this painting? ”

Jesse's words made Chris dumb, which was what he was most worried about before, the reason why Martin didn't agree before, he took this painting as collateral because he was afraid that the painting would be recognized.

He had been worried about this before, but now they were so short of money that he had to bite the bullet and take out the painting, but he didn't expect it to be seen through. (To be continued.) For mobile phone users, please browse M. Reading for a better reading experience.
