Chapter 37: Picking Up the Leak

In general, the calligraphy and painting are not as strong as the real handwriting, but this painting has some opposite feelings, which makes Lin Qiufeng a little entangled and puzzled.

To be able to make a painting of this level, even if it is not famous in the first place, it is enough to be famous for a while. If it is a fake, is it necessary to sign Chen Ruzhang's name?

Chen Ruzhang's fame is not big, when he is mentioned, they all say that he is a disciple of Zheng Banqiao, and it is completely because of Zheng Banqiao that he is remembered by future generations. His paintings are also not valuable...... What's going on?

There must be something wrong.

The principle of antiques, as long as you see that there is a problem, even if you can't think of where the problem is, it means that the thing is wrong and not worth buying.

Lin Qiufeng was a little ready to give up, but when he looked at this painting again, he always felt that the painting style was somewhat familiar, and he couldn't help but pick it up and look at it carefully.

"What, is it fake again?" Shui Yingying asked next to her.

Lin Qiufeng had already immersed himself and did not answer.

"Huh!" Shui Yingying smiled, without the slightest displeasure. This boy is really ...... when he gets serious. I love it!

Serious boys have the most power on girls, and sure enough.

Chaser standard?

In Lin Qiufeng's mind, the name suddenly flashed.

His treasure appreciation level has reached the peak of C-level, and he just got a fan with a Chashi standard two days ago...... Although it is fake, it is difficult to distinguish the vividness of the imitation of the painting style and other aspects. Looking closely at this painting now, I find that the style of this painting is very close to that of Zhai Shibiao.

Could it be that this painting is also fake, made by the same master of counterfeiting?

As soon as this thought came to Lin Qiufeng's heart, he was denied by himself.

No way!

With the style of the master of construction in the production of Cha Shi Biao, if you want to make Chen Ruzhang's works, it is impossible to deviate from his style so much.

So what's the problem?

After going around in a circle, it seems to be back to square one.

Since he came to see the antiques, Lin Qiufeng was of course prepared, and brought a magnifying glass with him, and now he picked it up and looked at it carefully.

"Hehe, it can't be fake! Look at how atmospheric this painting is! This is simply not something that ordinary people can imitate. This is Chen Ruzhang's model, replaced by the name of Yangzhou Eight Monsters, and the price of this painting immediately doubled and rose! "The boss was beating the side drum.

Lin Qiufeng's eyes lit up, a thought flashed in his mind, he carefully checked the payment, his hand trembled slightly, as if he had found something wrong, and the corners of his eyes were also trembling.

On the side, Shui Yingying kept looking at Lin Qiufeng, taking every expression of Lin Qiufeng in her eyes, with a smile on her face, revealing a thoughtful expression.

However, Lin Qiufeng did not show it, but continued to review the whole painting step by step.

"Yes, the pen power of this painting is very deep, and it is not something that can be created by fraud. It should be Chen Ruzhang's undoubtedly. Lin Qiufeng put away the magnifying glass, breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded and said.

"I'll just say it! Brother, you're definitely an expert! This vision is unique, I don't say it! The owner was immediately happy.

He took this painting as a real thing, but there was a problem when it was sold out, because at an exchange meeting, he showed it to an old gentleman.

As a result, the old gentleman's evaluation was "inaccurate", and in this industry, what it means to be inaccurate, of course, everyone knows it. As for the reason for the inaccuracy, the old gentleman also said that it was because he felt that the painting style of this painting deviated from Chen Ruzhang, and his pen power was not low......

It is precisely because of this contradiction that things are not easy to sell. Because everyone in the antique circle knows this principle, if you see a little doubt, even if you can't find a fault, you definitely can't buy it. In fact, there are too many fake things on the market now, and the means of counterfeiting are getting higher and higher, and it is impossible to prevent them.

So, this painting is a smashing hand. Although tens of thousands of dollars are nothing, it also made him a little depressed. Now that I see that Lin Qiufeng thinks it is true, of course I am very happy.

"Hmm!" Lin Qiufeng responded nonchalantly, putting things down, and didn't seem to be much interested.

This attitude made the boss feel a little more in his heart. After all, people only say that things are real, but they are not sure to buy them!

"How's it going, little brother? Chen Ruzhang's painting, such a large size, I want you to ...... Eighty thousand, not expensive, right? The boss wanted to open his mouth to ask for 100,000 yuan, but after looking at Lin Qiufeng's expression, he finally pushed the price down.

"Eighty thousand? Chen Ruzhang's things are not worth so much money! Generally at this size, forty or fifty thousand is considered good. Lin Qiufeng said this, and paused slightly, "What's more, there are still some problems with this painting, I always feel that something is wrong......

Lin Qiufeng said as he touched his chin with his hand and looked at the painting, as if he was ready to reconsider.

Something is not right...... This is the most fatal flaw of this painting! The boss was in a hurry, he opened an antique shop, not just a hobby, things can't be pressed in his hands for too long, and the funds must be circulated. If you miss this customer, next time someone takes a fancy to it, I don't know if it's the Year of the Monkey.

"Forty or fifty thousand, you are talking about the price of the first two years! Now this size, less than 60,000 really can't be sold! In this way, I don't tell you that I have 55,000 yuan, and it has been in my hands for half a year, and I only earn you 2,000, 57,000, and it can't be lower, how about it? "The boss was like cutting meat.

Lin Qiufeng could also see that this was already the lowest price the boss could give. If it's lower...... It is estimated that even if he suspects that there is something wrong with this thing, he will have to hold it in his hands.

So, he turned his head to look at Shui Yingying and nodded.

The meaning is certainly clear, that is, the price is right.

"Okay, can you swipe your card here?" Shui Yingying is a little white, and she listens to Lin Qiufeng completely.

"Yes! OK! The boss smiled. Either way, the business is finally done.

POS machines are very popular now, and they really don't mean anything.

Swipe to checkout. The boss packed the things and happily sent the two out.

"This is my business card, come over if you want anything in the future." The owner was welcoming.

Lin Qiufeng took the business card and put it away casually.

"This thing, maybe it's missing." Only Lin Qiufeng and Shui Yingying remained, and Lin Qiufeng spoke.

"Oh?" Shui Yingying was stunned.

"If I'm not mistaken, it's probably something that's the Chaser mark. Zha Shibiao was a literati in the early Qing Dynasty, and his things were much more expensive than Chen Ruzhang's. Lin Qiufeng said.

"Two million? Doesn't this mean that if you buy something for 50,000 yuan, you can sell it for 2 million if you change hands? Shui Yingying was a little surprised.

She didn't care about two million, and in her capacity, two million was nothing. However, she was surprised to see Lin Qiufeng earn money so easily.

"It's called picking up leaks. However, it depends on chance and luck. Lin Qiufeng said.

He was already pretty sure he was right.

"Hehe, that's great. If that's the case, such a meaningful thing, grandpa must like it very much when he knows it. Shui Yingying smiled.

"However, the payment on it is obviously Chen Ruzhang!" Shui Yingying still has some questions.

"If I'm not mistaken, as long as Chen Ruzhang's name is scraped off, the name of the Chashi standard is covered below." Lin Qiufeng said, "Be careful when you blow, the other party is directly coated with pulp, and the year is relatively old." In my opinion, the fraud should have been before the Republic of China, and after years of wind and frost, there are no traces. ”

This painting is very well done, if it weren't for Lin Qiufeng himself being a C-level fraud expert, coupled with C-level connoisseurship knowledge, if it wasn't a combination of the two, I really couldn't see the key.

"It's so fun! That has to be left on Grandpa's birthday and let Grandpa do it himself. "The watery eyes were shiny and flashed with excitement. I think that my choice of this gift is simply too meaningful.

Let the grandfather who likes cultural relics "pick up the leaks" by himself, this is the capital that grandpa will show off in the future!
