It's less than eight o'clock, and the payment point hasn't opened yet. Yu Shan returned home, and while Xiong Hai had not yet arrived, he fiddled with his mobile phone to check his property. After a long time, the combined balance of several bank cards and Alipay did not have three digits.

Yu Shan was worried with a bitter face, whether it was a little woman or a big husband these days, it would be difficult to move an inch without money. I've made an appointment with Xiong Hai to appraise the painting at hand, but I can't even afford the appraisal fee when it comes to the end, right? He fumbled around, and suddenly found that his trouser pocket was bulging, and when he pulled it out, it was an envelope. Only then did I remember that this was the 6,000 yuan that Yu's mother secretly stuffed into him last night.

Looking at this money, Yu Shan's heart was not good again, he was thinking nonsense, when he heard the sound of knocking on the door. Yu Shan was startled, thinking that the debt collector had come to the door again, but he held his breath and didn't dare to respond. After a while, the mobile phone vibrate, and as soon as I answered it, I heard the bear child's duet shouting: "Brother Shanzi, you don't have to play with people early in the morning." I'm at your doorstep, where are you? ”

Yu Shan said embarrassedly: "Wait, I'll open the door for you." ”

After a few steps and opened the door, Xiong Hai hugged his arms and frowned at Yu Shan: "You are at home." ”

"What, I just came to the toilet."

The bear child was happy: "Who is confused? You must be thinking of me as a debt collector, hahaha......"

"I know and say it, be careful that I turn my face." Yu Shan himself was happy. He was not polite to Xiong Hai, he put on his shoes directly, took the picture scroll and left. The two went downstairs, Xiong Hai took out the car key and pressed it to unlock it, and a Volkswagen standard car parked in the parking space immediately made a Didi unlocking sound. The distance was a little far, and Yu Shan didn't look carefully, and said strangely: "Why did you drive the Passat?" ”

The speed at which the bear child changes the car, second only to the speed at which he changes his girl, almost every time he meets, this guy will drive a new car, and the co-pilot is still sitting in a fashionable fashion.

Yu Shan's words made Xiong Hai stumble, and his nose was almost crooked: "Brother Shanzi, have you ever seen an eight-cylinder Passat?" ”

"Huh?" Yu Shan wondered, the car was far away, and it was clearly a Passat. He walked briskly and circled around the car, and found that it was much larger than the Passat, and there was an unfamiliar logo on the back of the car: Phaston. Yu Shan spelled in half-hung English for a long time, and suddenly realized: "I'll go, Phaeton." ”

The little fat man Xiong Hai glanced at Yu Shan angrily, got into the car and said, "I have to sell this car!" Yesterday, I went to eat near Wanda, and when Nima parked the car, the security guard actually asked me to let go, don't scratch the BMW. Damn, my car can destroy several BMW X1s. ”

Yu Shan was overjoyed, and said instead: "Isn't Phaeton about to be discontinued?" How did you think about buying this car? ”

"Don't mention it!" The little fat man Xiong Hai skillfully reversed the car, drove the car onto the road, and said: "Didn't I let people cheat me when I partnered with someone to dump corn last year?" I found the kid a while ago. As a result, the boy had no money, so he gave me the top of the car. ”

"Oh, I said that. You just can't buy Phaeton no matter how much you smoke your brain. ”

The bear child gritted his teeth angrily: "Brother Shanzi, you don't have any friends anymore." Hey, now everyone knows Phaeton's jokes, and I can't sell them even if I want to, so I'm smashing my hands. Hui Teng walked out of the community, Xiong Hai glanced at Yu Shan's picture scroll, and then said, "Brother Shanzi, this is your painting, right?" Open it, open it for your brother to see. ”

"What are you driving here?"

Xiong Hai braked, and the green light stopped in front of the stop line at the intersection in the last three seconds, urging: "I'll see, I can tell you, I specially called a retired professor for your matter." Don't get a fake, brother, I can't afford to lose face. Hurry up, I'll check first. ”

"Cheng, then you can open your eyes." Yu Shan untied the tied strip of cloth and slowly unfolded the scroll. Space in the car is limited, so only one corner of such a large painting can be expanded.

Xiong Hai pretended to look at it for a long time, and said in a loud voice: "Eh, do you say that rich people now have money to burn, that money is eaten, drunk, wrapped a tender model, a star or something, what is not good." Tens or millions of dollars to buy a broken painting, can it be eaten or drunk? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, can you see the truth or falsehood?"

Xiong Hai pouted: "I want to have the ability to find someone else to teach with the current baba." ”

Yu Shan slapped him on the back of the head: "Then what are you messing with?" Hey, it's green, let's go. ”

The two of them talked all the way, drove out of the city, and then drove through the suburbs, and saw that they were about to get on the highway, and the car turned into a townhouse. Yu Shan said, "Who do you say the professor is?" He pointed to the townhouse outside the window and said: "I know this place, the opening price is more than 9,000, and there is no less than 300 square meters." ”

"You don't know you either...... Zhang Hongxin: Do you know each other? ”

"Who?"

"Zhang Hongxin, a professor at Jida University, retired the year before last, and returned to Qibei after falling leaves. My dad took me to meet Professor Renzhang, but fortunately I still have my business card, otherwise I really wouldn't have found a master who can identify it. Xiong Hai parked the car, and when he pulled the handbrake, he instructed: "Professor Zhang is an elegant person, you should pay attention to what you talk later." ”

Yu Shan began to glare: "Are you sure you didn't say this to yourself?" ”

Xiong Hai thought about it seriously: "That's right." You're just poor now, not low...... Don't slap your face, don't slap your face. ”

The two got out of the car, and Xiong Hai led Yu Shan to the door and rang the doorbell. Xiong Hai also deliberately raised his head and laughed stupidly at the camera: "Professor Zhang, I, Xiong Hai, just called you in the morning." ”

"Please come in." With a thud, the curfew opened.

As soon as the two of them entered the door, a nanny immediately led them up to the third floor. Professor Zhang, who is retired, is wiping down the bookshelves in the study on the third floor. As soon as he saw the rich and festive Xiong Hai, the old man was happy: "Xiong Hai, what good things did you steal from your father this time?" ”

Yu Shan glanced at Xiong Hai teasingly, and the latter's face couldn't hold back: "Professor Zhang, don't keep exposing people's shortcomings, I've already reformed now." ”

Yu Shanxin said, it won't work if you don't change your ways, Comrade Xiong has already stopped letting Xiong Hai enter the house, where is there still a chance to steal good things.

"I'm here to introduce you to a good friend of mine. This is Yu Shan, Brother Shanzi, this is the Professor Zhang I mentioned to you. ”

Yu Shan hurriedly stepped forward to shake hands with the old professor: "Hello Professor Zhang, I'm sorry for you today." ”

The old man was very kind, exchanged a few words, asked the nanny to make tea, and then said, "That is the calligraphy and painting you asked me to see?" ”

"Yes." Yu Shan answered, untied the scroll, and hurriedly handed it over.

The old man put on his reading glasses, unfolded it, and his face immediately became serious. He spread the whole painting on his desk and unfolded it, holding a magnifying glass to look at it from time to time.

For fear of disturbing Professor Zhang, Yu Shan and Xiong Hai didn't even dare to come out. After a long time, the old man put down the magnifying glass, took off his reading glasses, and nodded slowly.

Xiong Hai was anxious and couldn't help asking, "Professor Zhang, do you see whether this painting is real or fake?" ”

The old man smiled and said, "It's genuine." He Jianing's fine brush paintings are a must among contemporary painters. The penmanship is right, and the payment is not wrong, it is genuine. ”

The bear child was happy and asked, "Then how much is this painting worth?" ”

The old man shook his head, and the hearts of the bear child and Yu Shan immediately rose.

"No, don't you don't speak, what do you mean by shaking your head?"

"He Jianing passed away the year before last, and it is not suitable to make a move now, and the price can double in ten years. Look at this method, look at this size, now there can be two million top heavens. ”

"Two ...... Million? "Hey, the little fat man Xiong Hai's excited tongue is curled. He never imagined that this painting would be worth more than his Phaeton, which was always used as a Passat.

"Well, that's the price. What, Xiaoyu, are you going to change hands? ”

Yu Shan said respectfully, "Yes." Collecting this painting is a coincidence, I myself have no research on calligraphy and painting, and if I continue to keep it in my hands, it will be regarded as a pearl, and it is better to give it to people who know how to appreciate it. ”

"So......" said the old professor, pacing for a moment, "then how are you going to change hands?" Is it an auction or a private transaction? ”

"Professor, I don't know anything about this, how do you think it's appropriate?"

"Oh, let's tell you that. The price of the auction can be higher, but you have to give the auction house a commission, and you have to pay personal income tax; For private transactions, the price is a little lower, but the advantage is that there is no trouble with the procedures. After a pause, he continued: "If you want to trade privately, I can recommend a few buyers. ”

Like Professor Zhang, he has always traveled widely, and those rich people who like to collect wish that Professor Zhang would introduce them to sellers.

Yu Shan said gratefully, "Then I'll trouble you, Professor." ”

"Okay, you sit down first, I'll make a call."

Professor Zhang went downstairs to make a phone call, and after 20 minutes, he came back and said with a smile that the buyer was rushing here, and he would arrive in half an hour at the latest. The three of them stayed in the study, chatting while drinking tea, and within half an hour, the nanny led a familiar middle-aged man to the study on the third floor.

The middle-aged man was very familiar with Professor Zhang, and they held hands and talked happily.

After the greetings, Professor Zhang flashed over, pointed at Yu Shan and said, "Liu Dong, this is Xiao Yu, that is, he wants to transfer the painting "Twilight Spring". ”

"Oh?" Nodding to Yu Shan, the middle-aged man said impatiently, "Just talk about the one on the table, right?" I'll take a look first. Walking over in three or two steps, the middle-aged man almost lay there looking at the picture scroll inch by inch.

Yu Shan stabbed Xiong Hai beside him and whispered, "Who is this Liu Dong?" ”

"Liu Shi, chairman of Xing'an Group."

Yu Shan suddenly realized, no wonder he looked familiar, and his feelings were him. Hung Yen Group is one of the largest private enterprises in the province, mainly engaged in cold organic food, blueberries, ginseng, anthocyanins, plant proteins, wild plant extracts, in short, the stall is very large. It was listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange in 10 years, and now its market value has exceeded 10 billion yuan. For a while, Qibei TV reported on Liu Shi and Xing'an Group, because Xing'an Group intended to place its R&D base in Qibei.

Yu Shan didn't know what happened next, but he was bombarded by TV and newspapers so much that he remembered Liu Shi.

After a long while, Liu Shi straightened up and looked at Professor Zhang with questions. The old professor nodded slightly, and Liu Shi immediately opened his mouth to praise: "Good painting!" Yo, I'm sorry, Xiaoyu, I'm happy to see the painting, and I was a little lazy just now. Are you going to sell this painting? ”

"Yes."

Without waiting for Yu Shan to continue to say anything, Professor Zhang hurriedly said, "Dong Liu, Xiao Yu entrusted me to sell this painting, you can't treat people badly." ”

"Where can it be, in this way, Professor Zhang, how much do you think this painting is worth?"

Professor Zhang said: "His painting skills are at the peak of He Jianing, and the size is still so large, conservatively estimated at 2 million. ”

"...... like this" Liu Shi pondered: "I will pay 2.6 million, Professor Zhang still has a small surplus, do you think it is fair?" ”

Professor Zhang smiled and bowed his head, Yu Shan, who had been paying attention to Professor Zhang's expression, was ecstatic, and hurriedly said, "Then thank you Dong Liu for taking care of you." ”
