Chapter 62: Paintings
Jiang Yu couldn't help but feel a little funny when he saw her like this: "There are many kinds of dishes provided at the banquet, but the dishes are very small, if you can't eat enough, wait until you get home and eat more." ”
Of course, Shen Jinchu also understood the truth of being a guest, and nodded cooperatively, his voice soft: "I know." ”
When the banquet was almost eaten, relatives and friends from all walks of life began to send gifts to the little master one after another, Jiang Yu prepared a little old ink jade pen wash, as soon as he got up to prepare to go over, a few people rushed ahead of him.
"Little master, old man, this is a treasure that we bought from overseas at a great price," the leader looked like a thief, and the mustache on his face trembled, and it was not a good thing at first glance, "Hehehehe, you have to take a look." ”
His voice was deliberately loud, and the eyes of the guests were drawn to it, only to see him take out a picture scroll from the box and carefully unfold it in front of everyone.
I saw a pretty woman standing in the pavilion, holding a fan, looking into the distance shyly and timidly, only a side face on the picture, but it was as beautiful as a fairy above the nine heavens, which made people forget the vulgar.
"This is the work of the famous painter of the An Dynasty, the monk of mercy!" The man raised his chin proudly and said in a loud voice, "I bought this one from overseas at a great price, and as we all know, the works of the monks are priceless, and last year there was a landscape painting that sold for more than 90 million yuan...... Old man, today I take the opportunity of the little master's birthday banquet to present this painting, and our old accounts will be written off, how about it? ”
The guests who were sitting on the sidelines of the play suddenly whispered.
As the saying goes, there are still three poor relatives in the imperial court, although the Liu family has a big business, it is inevitable that there are a few unproductive collaterals, and this mustachioed man is one of the more outstanding ones.
Because he is very good at fighting the autumn breeze, he is thick-skinned, and he uses the name of the Liu family to do evil outside all day long, not to mention the debts he owes, and almost attracts a lot of enemies to the Liu family, the old man Liu can't bear it, so he asks him to return the money he "borrowed" from the Liu family before, otherwise he will go through the legal process to get the money back.
I thought he could stop there, but he didn't expect that he would make trouble when someone came to visit him today, and it was clear that he wanted to force the Liu family to write off the accounts.
But if this painting is real, then the Liu family can also be regarded as a benefit, after all, the painting of the merciful layman is a good thing that money can't find!
Old Man Liu had a calm face, looked at the painting carefully, shook his head and said, "You said that this is a painting by a monk of mercy, is there any evidence?" ”
"Hey, I'm afraid you won't recognize it, I also brought a professional appraiser here," the mustache took out a qualification certificate from his pocket, "See, the appraiser certificate!" Premium! Come on, let's hear what the experts have to say. ”
A man with glasses behind him stepped forward slowly, cleared his throat, and said: "I have identified this work, it is the painting of the Bongmercy Layman, the style is the representative aesthetic freehand style of the Bongpian, the lines are perfect, the color matching is exquisite, and the payment is also clearly visible, I have also seen the paint, it is the popular plant pigment of the An Dynasty, so this must be the painting of the Bongmercy Layman!" ”
Old Man Liu frowned and looked at it for a long time, always feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't say it.
