"One hundred and fifty-three thousand? How can there be so many? ”

Hearing the total price of the painting, He Xiao frowned, the money in his hand was only 150,000, which was still a little insufficient.

Looking at the paintings in the sack, he was reluctant to put down any of them.

After a moment's hesitation, he untied the sack and poured out the great unity inside.

"Whoa......

Bundles of great unity rolled down from the sacks and fell in front of Comrade Xiao Zhang.

Before a few people came back to their senses, He Xiao untied his shoulder bag again and took out five or six stacks of great unity.

"Count and see how much money there is."

"Sss

Everyone in the treasury gasped, such a big unity, piled up in front of them, it was really shocking.

After being stunned for a long time, Comrade Xiao Zhang led a few people and hurriedly counted them.

Such a large pile of money is not a small amount, and it took everyone nearly half an hour to count the denomination.

Comrade Xiao Zhang was afraid of making a mistake, so he couldn't help but ask someone to count it again.

After a while, Comrade Xiao Zhang swallowed his saliva and said to He Xiao: "Comrade, these are a total of 151,550, and there is still a difference of 1,575. ”

"Xiao Zhang, or these odds will be wiped off, Xiao He bought so much, it should be cheaper."

Aunt Niu clutched her chest, her heart was pounding, and she quickly turned her head and stopped looking at the pile of money on the ground.

"You don't need to wipe it, you can pay as much as you want."

Without waiting for Comrade Xiao Zhang to be embarrassed, He Xiao hurriedly refused.

Picking up leaks in the museum is a rare thing, he doesn't want any stains, the market price is as much as it is, he doesn't want to have too many things.

Touching his satchel, he took out more than a dozen 100 yuan foreign exchange rolls from inside.

Holding it and shaking it, he asked, "Does your unit accept foreign exchange papers?" If it doesn't work, I'll go back and get the money. ”

"Receive, it's better to have foreign exchange rolls."

He Xiao counted out one thousand six and handed it to Comrade Xiao Zhang.

Turning to look at the painting on the ground, he licked his lips, his heart was very excited, these were immediately his.

Comrade Xiao Zhang collected the money, and after issuing the receipts, he asked a few people to move the paintings outside.

He Xiao had been waiting for a long time, he greeted him, and then picked up the sack outside.

A few tricycles outside had been parked for noon.

Seeing that he finally came to work, a few pedaling tricycles hurriedly helped.

When the tricycle was full, He Xiao instructed Taozi, and then rode a small Suzuki and led the tricycle to the ancestral house.

Along the way, he looked back from time to time, afraid of accidents.

Fortunately, the museum is not far from the ancestral house, and a few people rode for more than ten minutes to arrive.

He Xiao pushed open the door and called Aunt Qin and Aunt Wang out of the courtyard, plus the tricycle riders, and several people quickly moved the sacks in the car to the study in the east courtyard.

After five or six trips back and forth, He Xiao led people to move all the paintings in the warehouse to his home.

There were more than 4,000 paintings, which were too many, and in the end he couldn't fit them in the study, so he had to let people put them in the living room.

When everything was done, he gave a few people pedaling tricycles, one person a big unity, and then went to the museum and called Han Chunming and a few people to his restaurant.

The painting was bought smoothly, and he went to the storeroom and brought two video recorders.

"Chunming, Fangfang, these two video recorders, one for each of you, can be regarded as my gratitude to you."

He Xiao raised the wine cup and toasted the two of them.

When he took down half of the storehouse painting today, he was so happy in his heart that he couldn't help but drink a little more.

"This ...... It's too precious, no, I can't ask for it, I can't ask for it. ”

Lu Fangfang looked at the video recorder in front of her and was startled.

She just told the two of them about the news that the museum sells modern paintings, and by the way, she introduced Aunt Niu.

She really deserved to help so little and receive such a valuable thing.

"Fangfang, you're welcome, He Xiao is a big dog, you just accept it."

Han Chunming touched the video recorder and liked it very much.

After looking around, he hurriedly asked, "By the way, He Xiao, what about the videotape?" How many tapes are you going to give us? Otherwise, it's useless for us to ask for this thing. ”

"Send, definitely send, you will go with Taozi later, whatever strap you like, take whatever strap you like."

He Xiao'er is very arrogant today, compared to the paintings in the warehouse, the videotape is nothing.

Glancing at the two of them, he casually reminded: "Chunming, Fangfang, these modern paintings are good things, you can buy a few collections." ”

"A large-sized painting is almost worth a month's salary, and I don't have the money to buy it."

Lu Fangfang shook her head, she touched the video recorder curiously.

Han Chunming also thought so in his heart, "He Xiao, you have bought enough paintings, you can buy some old objects to collect in the future." ”

"I can see that neither of you like to draw."

Hearing the words of the two, He Xiao was a little helpless.

The price of modern paintings is much more exaggerated than that of antiques, and the two of them seem to be really not interested in this aspect.

Without saying anything more, he raised his glass, toasted them another, and then bowed his head and ate.

A few people ate and drank, and by the end it was already dark.

Han Chunming said hello and drove Lu Fangfang away first.

He Xiao drank a few more drinks with Taozi, then stood up, his body shook, and he felt a little dizzy.

"Ho...... He Xiao, are you okay? ”

Seeing this, Taozi hurriedly got up and walked over.

"It's fine."

He Xiao shook his head, pushed open the door and walked out, looked left and right, and he went directly to the third floor.

Looking left and right, he finally saw Tang Yanling in the chairman's office.

didn't care about Lou Xiao'e being in the house, his body shook and fell directly on Tang Yanling.

"He Xiao, how much have you drunk?"

"It's not much, I'm just happy, Mom, the batch of modern paintings in the museum has been sent to my home, a total of more than 4,000 pieces, and it cost a little more than 150,000."

Looking at her smirking son, Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes.

waved her hand at Tang Yanling angrily, and she said disgustedly, "Send him back quickly." ”

Tang Yanling answered, and helped He Xiao to walk out.

"He Xiao, why do you drink so much? Don't do this in the future, it's not good for your body. ”

"By the way, the woman just now is Han Chunming's lover? I think they're quite close. ”

He Xiao leaned on Tang Yanling and shook his head, "The razor is hot, who knows." ”

When he arrived at the door, he took out the key of Xiao Suzuki, handed it to Tang Yanling, and then sat on the back of the motorcycle.

When Tang Yanling came up, He Xiao hugged her, leaned on her back and closed her eyes.

In fact, He Xiao is not too drunk, his mind is still clear, but he feels a little tired.

It's been too exciting during the day, and he hasn't recovered yet.

"Suddenly, suddenly, suddenly."

When she arrived at the ancestral house, Tang Yanling helped He Xiao and entered the East Cross Courtyard.

Turning on the light, she looked at the pile of sacks in the living room and was stunned for a moment.

She knew that the little man went to buy paintings, but she really didn't expect to buy so much.

"He Xiao, are these all paintings you bought? Why so many? ”

"Many? Not much at all, the more the merrier. ”

Seeing these paintings in the room, He Xiao instantly became excited again.

Letting go of Tang Yanling, he walked over to untie the sack and pulled out one at random.

Unfold it, it is a landscape, look up and look at the falling, this is Zhang Daqian's work.

After admiring it for a while, he turned around and handed it to Tang Yanling.

Another one was taken out of the sack, which was a horse painted by Xu Beihong.

Putting his hand aside, he continued to look at the next one.

After a while, most of the paintings in the sack were opened to the side, and He Xiao finally stopped.

Walking up to the chair, he lay back and spread out on the chair.

In another 20 years, a random painting here will sell for at least a million, and 4,000 will be ......

For a while, He Xiao felt a little dizzy.

"Sister, how much is four thousand and one million?"

Tang Yanling was standing in front of the sack, admiring the painting, and when she heard it, she replied casually: "Four billion." ”

"A million, a total of four billion, hey, not much."

He Xiao was suddenly happy, and after taking the painting, he felt that his tone was too much.

With a finger in his hand, he said arrogantly: "Sister, you pick a sack yourself, count it as a gift from me." ”

"I don't want to."

Tang Yanling pursed her lips and casually put down the painting in her hand.

She only thinks these cultural people's things are very good-looking, but she is reluctant to buy them with a month's salary.

"You don't want it?"

He Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Sister, this is what you said, don't regret it in the future." ”

There are a lot of paintings in a sack, if you pick some Qi Baishi and Zhang Daqian, after more than 20 years, one is worth tens of millions, and this sack is hundreds of millions.

He could imagine Tang Yanling's expression twenty years later.

"Why don't I take two and hang them in the house?"

When He Xiao said this, Tang Yanling was still a little hesitant.

It just so happened that there was no decoration in her room, so she simply lowered her head and picked it up.

In the middle of the night, she took two selected paintings and walked towards He Xiao.

"Let me see."

He Xiao was a little curious, he picked it up casually and looked at it, only to see two cute cats, fluttering butterflies.

Shaking his head, he looked at another one, with a gorgeous peony painted on it.

Looking at the inscription, he was not familiar with these two painters.

"Yes, sister, I can see it, you are really unlucky, why did you pick these two?"

He Xiaodu felt sorry for Tang Yanling.

In such a pile of paintings, most of them are famous, and she chose two that are not famous.

"Look at people, these two are better than yours, I like them myself."

Tang Yanling rolled her eyes, and she rolled up carefully.

When she turned around and wanted to go out, a strong force attacked, and she was directly pulled over by He Xiao.

"Yes, I was wrong, you can do it if you like it." He Xiao couldn't cry or laugh.

Hey, it's also to blame him for only looking at the value of the painting, it's really a philistine.

Holding Tang Yanling and rubbing it vigorously, He Xiao closed his eyes and lay in her arms.

"You like cats and flowers, wait a few days, I'll buy you a kitten to raise, and we'll plant some peonies in our yard."

"I'm busy, but I don't have time to feed the cats, flowers are fine, but can peonies be planted in summer?"

Tang Yanling casually put down the painting and stroked the little man's head.

"Try it, and if you die, you will replant next year."

"Then don't say it, wait for next spring to plant again, and then on both sides of the moon gate, I will plant some more moon flowers and make a flower wall, then it will look good."

After a while, Tang Yanling didn't hear a response.

She looked down and saw that the little man had fallen asleep.

Rolling her eyes, she picked up He Xiao and walked to the bedroom.

Helping the little man to the bed, she walked to the window and plugged in the air conditioner.

Walking to the bedroom door, she hesitated for a moment, but finally walked back.

Forget it, let's sleep here, the little man is drunk, and she is still a little worried.

……

Next.

He Xiao woke up early in the morning and habitually touched the next door, but he didn't touch a hole this time.

When I opened my eyes, Tang Yanling was still asleep.

Reaching into his arms, he squinted for a moment.

"Annoying, don't make trouble."

Tang Yanling was in a daze and pushed it.

He Xiao touched his mouth and had no choice but to get up.

After getting dressed, he walked to the outhouse and was startled, "Mom, why did you get up so early?" ”

Lou Xiao'e glanced back at her son, and didn't bother to say anything, she continued to look at the painting in her hand.

"Qi Baishi, old man Baishi."

Lou Xiao'e muttered to herself, when she was a child, she had also seen Qi Baishi, and so many years had passed.

Gently rolling up the painting, she looked at the others.

After a while, she turned her head to He Xiao and said, "These are all painted by others, don't disrespect other people's works, and don't throw them away in the future." ”

As she spoke, she rolled up the drawings on the ground one by one.

Forehead......

"I was a little drunk yesterday, and I won't be in the future."

He Xiao was a little ashamed, he hurriedly stepped forward and helped roll it.

Looking at the paintings in the living room, he made a plan in his heart, "Mom, I plan to take some of these paintings to Xiangjiang and some to stay in the capital, what do you think?" ”

"You bought it yourself, and you can do it yourself."

Having said that, Lou Xiao'e agreed with her son's approach in her heart.

No one can say what will happen in the future, but it is safer to open up.

"By the way, Mommy picks a few of her favorites, takes them back and appreciates them, you take out the paintings of the old man Baishi and show them to me."

He Xiao searched carefully and untied a sack.

took out more than a dozen paintings of Qi Baishi, and he asked Lou Xiao'e to pick them up.

"This one, this one, and these two, give them to me."

Four paintings were selected, and Lou Xiao'e took them and left.

……

He Xiao scratched his head, he looked at the painting in the living room, and there was a kind of happy trouble

He plans to register these paintings one by one, and then classify them and put them in the basement, by the way, he has to pick out some and bring them to Xiangjiang, which is not a small job, and he estimates that he will be busy for a few days.

After breakfast, He Xiao said to Lou Xiao'e and asked Tang Yanling over.

didn't let Tang Yanling go to the restaurant, He Xiao took her to the living room and got busy.

More than 4,000 paintings, he unfolded them one by one, and then asked Tang Yanling to register, and then he took them to the basement.

In this way, the two were busy for two days, registering all the more than 4,000 paintings.

The basement at the bottom of the courtyard is also full of paintings.

At the beginning, He Xiao thought that the basement was too big, but now these paintings alone fill the basement.

He had no choice but to buy some more wooden boxes, put the rest of the paintings into the boxes, and put them in the study.
