Chapter 175 Buying Ancient Paintings

Chapter 175 Buying Ancient Paintings

"Ancient paintings, two hundred thousand, fifty thousand?"

As Li Yang listened to their conversation, he was immediately reminded of the pair of small red-glazed bowls collected in Beijing. Regardless of whether the pair of small red-glazed bowls came from the Jun kiln or not, their value must have increased a lot.

Li Yang extended his special ability, and the ancient painting was immediately shrouded in Li Yang's three-dimensional image. The entire ancient painting had five layers of light yellow halo. It was indeed an old thing. If it hadn't been like this, I'm afraid this shop wouldn't be willing to do it.

Spend fifty thousand to acquire this painting.

Paintings are different from porcelain. As long as they are dated and the painting is good, they will definitely be valuable. Of course, if they are made by famous artists or have the marks of famous people, they will be even more valuable. It is a pity that the painting in front of me does not have these, like this

It is indeed not easy to sell an ancient painting for 200,000 yuan.

Another point is that this ancient painting is actually a picture of gods and monsters. In ancient China, there were not many pictures of gods and monsters like this, and few of them were famous. Most of the works left by many painting masters were landscapes, animals, plants or

Figure drawing.

The young man had packed up the ancient paintings and was about to go out, but Li Yang hurriedly stopped him.

"Sir, please wait a moment. Can you let us take a look at your painting?"

Li Yang is now very curious about the paintings in the hands of this young man. In the knowledge of ancient paintings that Li Yang has learned, this kind of mysterious ancient paintings is basically blank.

"Can!"

The young man did not blame Li Yang and unfolded the painting again. Wu Xiaoli and Liu Gang both leaned over to look at the painting that interested him with Li Yang, especially Liu Gang. He had blind confidence in Li Yang.

As long as Li Yang likes something, it must be good.

The unfolded painting allowed Li Yang to see it more clearly. The three-dimensional view was thorough, but it felt strange to see it rolled together.

This painting is almost two meters long and more than 60 centimeters wide. This kind of painting is relatively large among ancient paintings.

The patterns on the painting are very weird. There are foxes, people, and mountain spirits and ghosts, which give people a spooky feeling. There is no inscription in the whole painting, only a seal. The name of the seal is also very strange, only the word "Fairy Sword".

, neither Li Yang nor Wu Xiaoli had ever heard of such a person in history.

Seeing the name on the seal, Li Yang couldn't help but shook his head. He returned the immortal sword. Could it be that the author of this painting thought he was an immortal, but when he thought of the content on the painting, it was really possible.

The painting skills are okay, but not particularly good. Li Yang has not studied ancient paintings deeply, let alone what the artistic conception of this painting is.

There are also some mold spots on the edges of the painting due to moisture, which are caused by poor preservation, which is very regrettable.

Li Yang shook his head, helped the young man put away the scroll, and asked by the way: "Two hundred thousand is indeed expensive, why are you selling it?"

The young man smiled bitterly and shook his head, his eyes a little dim, and said: "This is an ancient painting passed down from my ancestors. I really don't want to sell it if I can. It's a pity that I have to buy a house when I get married. I am short of money to buy a house. There is still a shortfall of 200,000 yuan. It is really

I have no choice but to sell my ancestral treasure. If it doesn’t sell for 200,000 yuan, it’s better not to sell it and keep it!”

As he said this, the young man had already put away the scroll and was about to go out with the ancient painting in his arms. In fact, he also understood that it was impossible to sell this ancient painting for 200,000 yuan. His desire to get married this time was probably a bit dangerous.

"Wait a minute!"

Li Yang stopped the young man again. Although this ancient painting was strange, it gave Li Yang another feeling. There were not many ancient paintings of gods and ghosts left in the world. Li Yang quite liked this painting. Since he liked it, the price

It doesn't matter how much.

Moreover, this young man reminded Li Yang of his old self. If he had not entered An's family or had not had such a magical experience, he would have been in the same embarrassment as this young man when he wanted to get married, worrying about the house.

"I want this painting of yours!"

Li Yang pointed to the ancient painting in the young man's hand and said slowly. The young man was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Li Yang in disbelief.

"Are you planning to sell this painting for 200,000 yuan?"

The young man looked at Li Yang and emphasized: "I won't sell it for less than 200,000 yuan!"

Li Yang nodded and said: "Two hundred thousand, I want it!"

The young man looked at Li Yang blankly, still a little unbelievable. It was really not easy to sell such an ancient painting for 200,000 yuan. He was already in despair, but he didn't expect that a stranger gave him hope. At this time,

The young man looked at Li Yang nervously, he was really afraid that Li Yang was making a joke on him.

Li Yang took out his checkbook and wrote a cash check for 200,000 yuan. The young man hesitated for a moment and did not accept the check. He looked at Li Yang with some confusion.

Seeing the young man's expression, Li Yang immediately understood what was going on. He took the check and explained to him: "This is a cash check for 200,000 yuan. You can withdraw the money immediately when you go to the bank!"

This young man is not a businessman who often does business. He has never received such a check and does not believe that such a small note can be exchanged for two hundred thousand.

"Sorry, I just want cash!" The young man looked at the check, but still didn't accept it, and finally shook his head.

Li Yang smiled bitterly and said to Liu Gang beside him: "Liu Gang, please go out and change the check into cash!"

Liu Gang has cash on him, but only about 100,000 yuan, which is in his bag. If he wants 200,000 yuan in cash, he must go to the bank. Fortunately, the bank is not closed now.

Liu Gang didn't say anything, picked up the check and went out. The young man stood there waiting. For him, cash was the safest.

The owner of the store who had not bought this ancient painting before shook his head slightly. In his opinion, this ancient painting cost 50,000 yuan at a risk, but 200,000 yuan was definitely not worth it.

Within ten minutes, Liu Gang ran back with a kraft paper bag wrapped in black plastic paper and took back 200,000 in cash.

After opening the brown paper bag and letting the young man look at it carefully, Li Yang took the ancient painting from his hand. The young man thanked him repeatedly and finally left with the 200,000 yuan in his arms with joy on his face.

Looking at the young man's back, Wu Xiaoli suddenly felt envious in her heart. His girlfriend would marry him soon, but as for herself, thinking of this, Wu Xiaoli looked at Li Yang's back again and shook her head slightly.

.

After buying this ancient painting, Li Yang became less interested in the other paintings in the store. Liu Gang took the painting and the three of them walked towards other shops.

The things on the second floor are better than those on the first floor, but there are also a lot of fakes. Some stores are even full of fakes. Even if they are genuine, they are just imitations from the Republic of China or the late Qing Dynasty, and their value is not high.

After viewing half of the second floor, Li Yang took them to the third floor. There were more calligraphy and paintings and the Four Treasures of the Study on the second floor. The third floor was almost a world of porcelain. Looking at the shops with glass doors, Li Yang felt even more

This is like an exhibition hall.

There are a lot more people on the third floor than on the second floor. It can be seen that there are many people who like porcelain. Unfortunately, there are also the most fake porcelain. The porcelain in the antique shop can be said to be fake. The only thing you think is real.

, is not necessarily good.

Seeing the porcelain shops here, Li Yang felt that Rongbaozhai was not easy. There were really not many antique shops in the country that dared to only sell genuine goods.

After visiting several stores, Li Yang and Wu Xiaoli both shook their heads. The porcelain here was not as fake as the porcelain of the top-notch gentleman on the first floor, but they were almost all imitations, and they were all imitations of a certain level.

“This store is great!”

Wu Xiaoli's eyes suddenly lit up, and she walked towards a shop first. Li Yang turned around and took a look, and was immediately attracted by this porcelain shop.

This store is much larger than the others. It is a store formed by two stores. It is larger in scale than others, and the items in the store are more than others.

At the same time, there are many more customers in this store than in ordinary stores. At this time, there are a dozen customers in the store choosing the porcelain they like.

"Boss, please show me that!"

Wu Xiaoli suddenly pointed at a blue and white plate on the counter inside and shouted. A waiter immediately handed the plate over and stood in front of Wu Xiaoli.

Wu Xiaoli picked up the blue and white plate and looked at it carefully under the light. After reading it, she picked up a magnifying glass and studied it for a while, and finally nodded lightly.

The blue and white color of this blue and white plate is very pure, the decoration is also very beautiful, the texture is delicate, and the patina looks honest and natural. The bottom of the blue and white plate has the six characters "Made in the Qianlong Year of the Qing Dynasty" on it. Wu Xiaoli has already judged that this is a Qianlong piece.

A fine blue and white plate from a folk kiln of this dynasty. Such plates are rarely seen.

Li Yang was also attracted by this plate. From all aspects, this was a good blue and white plate from the Qianlong period, especially the decorative patterns on it, which were very consistent with the characteristics of folk kilns during the Qianlong period.

"How much does your plate cost?"

After thinking for a while, Wu Xiaoli finally asked the price. If the plate was not expensive, she planned to buy it back. Wu Xiaoli didn't have a good blue and white collection yet.

"Miss, you have really good eyesight. This Qianlong blue and white plate is also a rare and exquisite product in our store, and the price is only 80,000!"

A smile immediately appeared on the waiter's face, and Wu Xiaoli frowned. Eighty thousand yuan was not cheap, but when she thought about the high quality of the plate, Wu Xiaoli hesitated.

"Cheaper, after all, it's from a private kiln, so 80,000 is a bit high!"

Li Yang came over, picked up the plate and looked at it carefully, and finally said to the waiter with a smile. The waiter glanced at Wu Xiaoli, shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, 80,000 is our base price, we can't go any cheaper.

!”

The color of Wu Xiaoli's face changed several times. She had 80,000 yuan, but her current savings only left a few hundred thousand yuan, part of which was earned from gambling in Nanyang. After buying this plate, she only had a few yuan left.

It costs 10,000 yuan. If you see other good things and want to buy them, it will be difficult.

Taking one last look at the blue and white plate, Wu Xiaoli finally gritted her teeth and nodded.

She liked this plate so much that she might regret missing it this time. In that case, she might as well buy it first and talk about it when she comes across other things.

Li Yang shook his head gently. He wanted to buy it himself and give it to Wu Xiaoli, but when he remembered Wu Xiaoli's temper, he decided not to do so. If he did, Wu Xiaoli would not only refuse to accept the plate, but would also be angry with him.

Wu Xiaoli had already taken out her bank card. When the waiter went to get the POS machine, Li Yang couldn't help but use his special ability to observe the plate. Then Li Yang's eyes suddenly became a lot bigger.
