Chapter 410: Rely on eyesight to make a bet
"Old man, are you alright?"
Jerry Chen asked, holding the old man.
"Thank you, young man. Hey, I was in a hurry just now, if it weren't for you and me, something would have happened. ”
The old man thanked him and stuffed the scroll of paper in his hand into his arms, obviously worried more about the paper roll being broken than about his body.
After speaking, he walked towards the shop in front of him, Jerry Chen looked at his departing back, and said to Tang Tiantian beside him: "I forgot to train you just now, how many times have you asked along the way?" When have I ever told you a lie? Are you the boss or am I the boss? ”
Tang Tiantian pursed her lips, lowered her head and muttered, "Am I not worried?" ”
Seeing this, Jerry Chen still glared at her, but he didn't reprimand him.
"Fake, you look at it as a fake painting. But the painting looks like it's real. ”
"Boss, this is a real painting of mine, the ancestral heirloom of the family, if it wasn't for the family road, I wouldn't have taken it out and sold it."
Hearing the high voice, Jerry Chen couldn't help but look curiously at the shop in front of him.
The wooden plaque on the top of the shop reads "Gold and Silver Treasure Shop", and the billboard next to it reads "Buy and sell antiques".
The boss is a middle-aged fat man in his forties and less than fifty, and at this moment he waved his hand with disdain and said: "As far as your "Mountain Front Map" is concerned, you dare to say that it is genuine, look at the material of your rice paper, it is all rough, and there are ...... Let me tell you, this "Picture of the Forefront" was auctioned at the Zurich auction house the year before last. Hehe, don't you tell me that there are two identical paintings in this world? ”
The boss sneered, and the old man swayed when he heard his words, and he almost lost his footing.
If you don't hold on to the counter in front of you in time, you can fall to the ground.
"Let's go, don't rub around with me, I'll tell you, I didn't touch you, there are monitors in this store, and if you want to blackmail me, there is no door."
The fat boss hugged his hands and said disdainfully, his eyes scanning the old man's whole body with disdain.
A low-level bitter dress, what ancestral "ancient paintings" can be, dreaming of ascending to the sky in one step, is really ridiculous.
This kind of person appears every day in this glass factory, holding the dream of making a fortune in the spring and autumn, which is ridiculous and pitiful.
The old man walked out with calligraphy and paintings, and just as he was about to go out, Jerry Chen and Tang Tiantian also walked in.
"Old man, wait a minute, can you show me the calligraphy and painting in your hand."
Jerry Chen smiled and pointed to the calligraphy and painting in the old man's hand and said.
The old man raised his confused eyes, looked at Jerry Chen, and after a while recognized him, he said with a sigh: "It's you, young man, this is a fake painting, if you want to see it, just look at it." ”
As he spoke, he handed the calligraphy and painting in his hand to Jerry Chen.
"Young man, this painting is a veritable fake painting, the real painting was sold at the Zurich auction house for 40 million three years ago, I don't think the mysterious seller should be this old man."
The fat boss behind the counter raised his voice and said, glancing at the old man with disdain, and sneered: "Some people still think that it is a real painting from their ancestors, but they really can't see the outside world." ”
Jerry Chen glanced at him lightly and nodded slightly.
Although the boss didn't speak well to the old man, he was kind enough to remind him not to buy fake paintings.
Spreading out the scroll, Jerry Chen frowned slightly, and said directly: "Old man, how do you sell this painting?" ”
Hearing what he said, the old man hesitated and said, "Little brother, this is a fake painting, are you sure you want to buy it?" ”
Jerry Chen smiled slightly and nodded, "Of course." ”
"Then you can give me some money, hey...... The child in the family had a car accident, and the driver who caused the accident ran away. I thought that the calligraphy and paintings uploaded by my ancestors could be worth some money, but I didn't expect it to be fake paintings. ”
The old man shook his head and sighed.
Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, especially for the Chinese people, they will not sell the things handed down by their ancestors until they have to.
"Tiantian, write a check for 500,000."
Jerry Chen said lightly to Tang Tiantian.
His words made Tang Tiantian stunned, not only her, but also the old man and the boss behind the counter.
"Boss, what did you say!?" Tang Tiantian thought she had heard it wrong, 500,000? Buying a fake painting? The boss isn't stupid.
"What's the matter with your ears, I'll ask you to write a check for half a million." Jerry Chen repeated dissatisfiedly.
Tang Tiantian heard the truth, chopped his foot, and said, "Boss, this is a fake painting, a fake painting is worthless." Don't look at ......."
She glanced at the old man, and wanted to say, "Don't look at the old man's pity and spend money indiscriminately", but when she reacted to the hurtful words, she stopped her mouth and puffed out her mouth to look at Jerry Chen.
Jerry Chen looked back at her dissatisfied, and said with some slight annoyance: "In the end, am I the boss or are you the boss, let you do things, why are you talking so nonsense?" ”
Seeing that he was dissatisfied, Tang Tiantian had no choice but to take out the checkbook from his handbag and write a check for 500,000 yuan.
"Don't, don't, it's too much, this fake painting isn't worth the money."
The old man hurriedly waved his hand and shirked the rejection of the check handed to him by Tang Tiantian.
Jerry Chen smiled slightly, this old man is still a good old man, and now his family difficulties can resist the temptation of "money", but it is good.
"Take it, old man, I like this painting very much, and besides, it's thought it's fake, but I think it's real, and that's fine.
In this glaze factory, I remember that there is a widely circulated saying, called 'true and false to see the eyesight, buy it and leave the house without admitting it.' ’”
The antique industry never cracks down on counterfeiting, but there is a saying that "blind eyes" and "blind eyes".
One is the rules, the other is the customs, and the third is jingcha, which can't tell the truth from the fake. Many things, true and false, who can tell clearly and see through?
The old man thought that Jerry Chen saw him pitiful and sympathized with him, and finally nodded, took the check, and said gratefully: "Young man, thank you, thank you so much." Good people have good rewards. ”
After saying that, he walked out step by step and turned around.
"Young man, I didn't expect you to be a kind person. I also have some fake paintings here, and my business is not very good, I don't know if I am willing to donate generously? ”
The fat boss said sourly behind the counter.
That's 500,000, and he actually "threw it" out in order to sympathize with others, in his opinion, isn't this a typical second ancestor approach?
Such people are called compassionate if they are good, and "losers" if they are bad.
"Hmph, what does my boss want to buy, how much does it cost, don't worry about your!"
Tang Tiantian listened to what the fat boss said sourly and sarcastic, and couldn't help but look at him angrily and said dissatisfiedly.
Although she is also dissatisfied with the boss's indiscriminate spending, she can say it herself, but others can't say it.
The fat boss was instigated by her, and his face suddenly became unsightly, and he said disdainfully: "It's really the second ancestor of the loser." ”
"Oh? So that's how you see it, boss."
Jerry Chen suddenly smiled indifferently and said, he walked over in a few steps, put the calligraphy and painting in his hand on the glass counter, smiled slightly, and said; "Boss, this glass factory is said to be the most eye-catching place, you can open a store here obviously your eyesight is not bad, why don't we make a bet?"
