Chapter 289: The Bet

Zhou Quan has been friends with Qin Wenju for decades, so he naturally knows the character of his friend, maybe Qin Wenju is a very good talker in other things, but when it comes to antiques, Qin Wenju is definitely a little bit of a temper, let alone himself, even if he is a powerful character, he still doesn't give face.

Shaking his head gently, Zhou Quan pointed to the cover of the manuscript and said to Qin Wenju: "Look at this handwriting, and then look at the handwriting in the second half of the manuscript, don't you think it's a little strange?" ”

Qin Wenju was stunned: "What's strange?" ”

Zhou Quan smiled bitterly: "You, it's you who is talking about it, haven't you noticed that the handwriting on the front and back parts of this manuscript is different?" Although the handwriting on the back is indeed very similar to the handwriting of Emperor Taizu when he was young, have you noticed that the handwriting in the front part, although it is very similar, is not the handwriting of Emperor Taizu. ”

As he spoke, he pointed to one of the words and said, "Look at this word, it appears in both parts before and after, but the writing is obviously different, and it is clearly written by two people." ”

Hearing his words, Qin Wenju's face changed suddenly, and at that moment, Xiao Qiang could even feel that his body was trembling.

Ignoring it, Qin Wenju stepped to the front of the manuscript again, put on gloves, and began to read it carefully.

After a long while, Qin Wenju sighed and stood up, without saying a word, but his pale face had betrayed his mood.

"Old man, are you really eye-catching?"

Jiang Tianyang asked again in disbelief, he could just say that he had experienced the feeling of heaven to hell, and his mood could definitely be said to be like a roller coaster.

Qin Wenju smiled bitterly and nodded: "I'm afraid it's really eye-catching, but fortunately there is Lao Zhou, otherwise it will really be seen by others." The old man's face is embarrassed. ”

However, he hesitated, then shook his head and said, "I also think it's strange, the second half of this manuscript is clearly the handwriting of His Majesty Taizu." ”

Everyone was stunned, and they all looked at Qin Wenju and Jiang Tianyang with strange eyes, some of these people admired them. Some people sigh to themselves, some appreciate the old man's wrong and admit character, and some people feel quite surprised in their hearts, but the most interesting thing is Li Kun, a guy who has not spoken, just now Jiang Tianyang and Qin Wenju didn't give him any good faces, and now seeing the two of them deflated, he couldn't help but feel a sense of happiness in his heart, and he thought even more in his heart. When you comment on the things identified by Xiao Qiang, let's see how the two of you talk.

He gloated here, and others naturally wouldn't know what he was thinking, but Li Kun suddenly thought of an idea, maybe he could take this opportunity to break Xiao Qiang's face. If Xiao Qiang is also wrong, then when Xiao Qiang identifies three wrong things in a row, he will not be qualified to stay here at all.

Thinking of this, he laughed. said to everyone: "I think this thing may be real or fake, why don't you let Mr. Xiao take a look?" I think he is also very good at studying calligraphy and painting. ”

As soon as this sentence came out. The faces of several people changed, no one didn't know the meaning of his words, it was clearly Xiao Qiang's army, after all, whether it was Zhou Quan or Qin Wenju, they were not sure whether this thing was true or false, so he recommended Xiao Qiang to go up. It was clear that Xiao Qiang was roasted on the fire.

Jiang Tianyang frowned, and was about to speak to refuse his proposal, but Xiao Qiang smiled slightly: "Thank you Boss Li for your trust, I was about to make this request to Brother Jiang." ”

"Xiao Qiang!"

Li Yuan was startled, and hurriedly reminded him in the back. Xiao Qiang was brought by her, naturally she didn't want Xiao Qiang to make a fool of herself, even the two experienced old men couldn't tell the truth from the fake, how could he, a young man who had just entered the industry, see it, and when the time came, he couldn't see the reason, but instead humiliated himself and offended people.

Tong Xiaoxue also frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment and said to Xiao Qiang: "Since the two elders have been identified, then you still ......"

Obviously, she is not very confident in Xiao Qiang.

For a while, everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Qiang, although he didn't know the dirty thoughts in Li Kun's heart, Xiao Qiang smiled, walked to Jiang Tianyang's side and said, "Brother, can you let me give it a try?" ”

Jiang Tianyang shook his head, and unexpectedly rejected Xiao Qiang directly: "I think it's better to forget it, Brother Xiao, it's not that Brother Xiao looks down on you, since things have come to this point, you don't need to be involved." ”

He is very kind, after all, this matter has come to this point, and he didn't want Xiao Qiang to be embarrassed with him.

Xiao Qiang laughed: "Brother Jiang, how can you be sure that this thing is really not Taizu's handwriting?" ”

Everyone was stunned, and Zhou Quan said with an unhappy face: "Xiaoyou, it's not right for you to talk like this, I already told Lao Qin just now, I ......"

Before he finished his words, Xiao Qiang had already smiled and said, "Old man, do you want to make a bet?" ”

Bet?

Everyone was stunned, they didn't expect Xiao Qiang to have the confidence to say such a thing.

You must know that just now, both Qin Wenju and Zhou Quan have confirmed that this manuscript is not the handwriting of His Majesty Taizu, but imitated by later generations, so there are two completely different handwritings. But now that Xiao Qiang dared to bet with Zhou Quan, did he find anything else?

Qin Wenju looked at Xiao Qiang: "Xiaoyou, the old man can be sure that this handwriting is inconsistent, although the back is very similar to Taizu's handwriting when he was young, but the front is definitely not the handwriting left by his old man, you ...... like this"

He was really worried that Xiao Qiang would make some irreversible mistake because of his momentary anger.

Xiao Qiang smiled, gave Qin Wenju a reassuring look, and said to Zhou Quan: "Old Zhou, it's still the same sentence, are you willing to bet?" ”

Zhou Quan's brows furrowed, and his intuition told him that this matter might not be so simple, but he had just said that this thing was fake, and it seemed a little inappropriate to change his words now.

At this time, Li Kun smiled and opened his mouth: "Mr. Xiao, if you don't mind, how about I bet with you?" ”

What he thought in his heart was very simple, no matter what, with Qin Wenju and Zhou Quan's words in front of him, even if Xiao Qiang was hard-mouthed, I am afraid that he would not be able to come up with any evidence to prove that this was the real Taizu handwriting. You know, these two old-timers who have been immersed in antiques for decades, they can't see what Xiao Qiang, a young man, can see? So Li Kun felt that Xiao Qiang was just a hard mouth now.

Jiang Tianyang thought for a while and said to Xiao Qiang: "Little brother, if you like this thing, I can give it to you, when I received it, it cost 30,000 yuan, since it is proved that this is a fake, brother, I will give it to you, how about it?" ”

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Zhou Quan and Qin Wenju: "Today's matter, don't blame me for today's incident, the two old-timers are all clumsy ......."

Qin Wenju smiled bitterly and shook his head, but did not speak.

Xiao Qiang looked at Jiang Tianyang with a smile: "Brother Jiang, don't regret it, if you give me this thing, you will definitely regret it." ”

Jiang Tianyang laughed: "Brother, you are underestimating what you say, if you can prove it to be true, it is a big deal that I will spend money to buy it back." What do you think? When the time comes, you don't want to sell it to your brother. ”

Xiao Qiang shrugged, he also saw that Jiang Tianyang's character was like this, if he refused, it would be easy for people to think that he was a hypocritical person, so he simply nodded, took out the only bit of money in his pocket and said: "This is all the cash I have on me, and I use all my property to buy this manuscript." ”

As he spoke, Xiao Qiang said to Jiang Tianyang: "Brother Jiang, I don't take advantage of you, this thing is definitely a good thing, I will exchange all my net worth for it." Because I need money now, otherwise I wouldn't have picked up your leak, please bear with me. ”

As soon as he said this, Jiang Tianyang's heart warmed a little, although he gave the thing to Xiao Qiang, but not because he felt that this thing was fake, but because this thing had been proven to be a fake by the two old men, and Xiao Qiang made a bet with Li Kun again, so he didn't want things to be too stiff because of this manuscript. What's more, what Jiang Tianyang cares about is his reputation, you must know that in the antique shop, reputation is sometimes more important than life, you can make more money if you don't have money, you can buy it again if you don't have anything, but if you don't have a reputation, it is the root of breaking the mix in the antique shop.

Xiao Qiang spoke, turned his head to look at Li Kun: "Li Gongzi, how do you want to bet with me?" ”

At this time, Li Kun had no way out, he sneered, looked at Xiao Qiang and said disdainfully: "Whatever you want to bet, but Mr. Xiao, all the money you have on you has been taken out to buy this manuscript for Boss Jiang, what else do you have to bet with me?" ”

His meaning is very simple, since you Xiao Qiang said that you used all your wealth to exchange this manuscript with Jiang Tianyang, what else can you take out to bet with me?

Xiao Qiang laughed, he glanced at Li Kun deeply, since this guy is looking for death by himself, don't blame himself for being ruthless.

"Li Gongzi, do you think that a spiritual elixir passed down from a cultivator can be a bet with you?"

Xiao Qiang spoke calmly and looked at Li Kun. But what he said made everyone stunned.

An elixir handed down by a cultivator?

At that moment, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became quiet, and even the air seemed to have condensed. This world is a world where the strong are respected, and the legends of warriors and cultivators are not very far away for ordinary people, so everyone knows very well what the three words of cultivators mean.

And now, Xiao Qiang actually said that he used a cultivator's elixir to bet against Li Kun!

At that moment, everyone felt that the young man in front of him seemed to be becoming more and more mysterious. (To be continued......)
