() Sun Jian took out his gloves and put them on just like he usually appraised calligraphy and painting works, then took out a magnifying glass and looked at it carefully for a long time, and then exclaimed in a "serious" manner: "Oh no, Boss Li, this painting of yours is indeed a masterpiece."
It’s a replica, and it’s a modern replica.”
Sun Jian's words almost made Li Longxing's nose twist in anger, and he thought, "Did Li Tianbao bribe him? Why are he telling lies so obviously? This is obviously Shen Zhou's authentic work, and although Wang Shouren didn't say it out loud just now, he showed it.
His expression also showed that he had no doubt that the painting was authentic."
"Researcher Sun, I am not trying to flatter you. I have been making antiques for many years. My ancestors have been doing this for several generations. This painting cannot be fake. There is something wrong with your eyesight." Li Longxing's words were obvious.
No need to be polite.
After hearing this, Sun Jian smiled and said: "Boss Li, I must have a reason for saying this painting is fake. I wonder if you know about a past event sixteen years ago. There was a young man named Xu Fei..."
As soon as Sun Jian said this, Li Longxing said: "You are talking about the old wizard 'Xu Fei' who has embarrassed several museums."
Sun Jian and Li Tianbao originally thought that Li Longxing didn't know about this matter, and they originally designed it for Sun Jian to introduce it to him. Unexpectedly, Li Longxing also knew about it, which was far beyond their expectations.
Sun Jiandao: "Do you know this person?"
"Haha, don't say I'm relying on my old age. I really know Xu Fei. Although several museums have done a good job of keeping this matter secret, most people in the circle know about it. If you don't believe me, ask Brother Wang."
"Yes, this matter actually came out not long after. I guess your research institute deceived itself and thought that no one knew about it."
Li Tianbao understood this time that Lin Meiru didn't learn about this from Li Boshan, but it didn't matter, because they definitely didn't know the mark of Xu Fei's painting.
"Oh, since you know it, it's good. Let me tell you that this painting is an old painting by Xu Fei." Sun Jian's words shocked the two people except Li Tianbao and Lin Meiru, especially Li Longxing.
"No way, this painting definitely can't be painted by Xu Fei." Although Li Longxing was a little worried, after all, he knew that no one could recognize Xu Fei's painting. Even if it was Xu Fei's fake painting, it could still be sold as if it were genuine.
.
"Tch, old man, don't be proud. Haven't you heard that Xu Fei found several museums that collected his fake paintings and told them how to identify them?" Li Tianbao said.
"That's a huge secret, and it has never been revealed." Li Longxing said with his head held high, showing no sign of guilt.
"But I know the secret. How about we verify it right now. If this painting is real, I, Li Tianbao, will kowtow to you and apologize, and I will never get involved in the antique business from now on."
When Li Longxing heard this, he suddenly "beat the drum" in his heart and thought, "How could an unknown person like Li Tianbao know this secret? It's impossible. Except for a few big leaders of the museum, it has never been spread. Even if Sun Jian is
It's impossible for a young researcher to know that Li Tianbao must be bombing me and trying to make me look embarrassed."
"Haha, Li Tianbao, don't say that I bullied you, a young boy. If you can't tell me why, then don't forget what you just said." Apparently, Longxing had already fallen in love with "Fengyuantang".
For a long time, he carelessly agreed to Li Tianbao's request to inspect the painting.
Li Tianbao looked at Li Longxing with a smile, and then said to Wang Shouren: "Old man, take your pipe and use it."
"Okay." Wang Shouren didn't ask about the reason and handed the pipe in his hand to Li Tianbao.
After Li Tianbao lit the smoke, he said: "Three words will appear in Xu Fei's paintings under the thick smoke, 'Xu Fei made', and once these three words appear, they will never fade away."
Li Tianbao's calm tone made Li Longxing worried. Just as he was about to regret it, Li Tianbao had already taken a deep breath from his pipe and suddenly exhaled it towards the upper right corner of the painting. Thick smoke surrounded the painting tightly, and then slowly
As expected, the three characters "Xu Fei Do" appeared on the upper right corner of the painting.
Li Longxing fell to the ground, his mind went blank. It took him a while to regain his composure, and said loudly: "No, these words must be from Shen Zhou. No matter from the style to the writing power or the paper, they are all right.
It can't be fake, someone must have deliberately made a prank, so they got some chemicals and wrote those three words."
"You haven't given up yet. Let me tell you, it's because of this that several museums are not afraid that future generations will use this trick to harm others and 'turn' real paintings into fake paintings, so they dare not spread the word. But they also know
, this kind of potion chemistry cannot be achieved at all, they are just afraid that someone will use real paintings for experiments, so they do this."
After Li Tianbao finished speaking, he looked down at Li Longxing and said: "If you don't believe it, you can cut out the painting and do isotope identification. Then you will know immediately what age the paper is. If it is identified as ancient paper, then I will accompany you.
Fifty million is fine."
Li Longxing was still completely collapsed at this moment. He couldn't hold his breath, fell to the ground on his back, and began to twitch.
…
Li Tianbao really didn't expect that Li Longxing would be admitted to the hospital by himself, and he thought it was a bit excessive, so he went to the hospital specifically to visit Li Longxing that day, hoping that he would not be admitted to the hospital by himself.
, then I would really feel too worried about it.
Arriving at the door of Li Longxing's ward, Li Tianbao knocked on the door and walked in. Li Longxing was half lying on the hospital bed at the moment, and his eyes were obviously a little distracted. When he saw Li Tianbao, he was unexpectedly calm and said: "You are
Are you here to see my old guy Hanchan?"
Hey! Li Tianbao sighed and said, "If I said I was here to apologize, would you believe me?"
"There's no need to apologize. Go away. It's me who paid for the things. I admit defeat. If you don't even have this kind of 'care' in this business, then just don't do it." Although Li Longxing's words were very calm,
Li Tianbao still heard that he was unpopular.
"Okay, let me go. I'll leave this money here for you. This is the six million yuan you used to buy the painting." Li Tianbao said and put the suitcase in his hand next to Li Longxing's hospital bed.
"Were you pretending to be that old man that day?" Li Longxing had obviously realized this.
"That's right, but I didn't expect that you would be so angry that you went to the hospital. But you hit me hard enough. Now we are even. If you still want to fight with me after you are discharged from the hospital, then I will
Tianbao feels that I will accompany you, but you should be mentally prepared in the end, I will not be merciful when the time comes."
Li Tianbao's words could be described as neither humble nor arrogant. Li Longxing looked at the suitcase beside the bed, pondered for a moment and said: "Boy, my old man has never convinced anyone in his life. Now I am convinced. I am convinced and admired."
When Li Tianbao heard this, he knew that Li Longxing would not go against him in the future, and he showed a smile of relief on his face, thinking, "These six million are not wasted at last. There is one less person who spends all day thinking about how to deal with him."
It’s worth everything.”
"Old man, even if we don't know each other without fighting, I will still have to learn more from you in the future."
Before Li Tianbao left, he did not forget to tell Li Longxing not to reveal Xu Fei's mark, lest someone actually use this method to harm people and property. Of course Li Longxing, who was deeply affected by this, understood in his heart, so he agreed wholeheartedly.
This matter was finally settled. In the next half month or so, because there were no vicious rivals in the circle and the popularity gained from the stone gambling competition, Li Tianbao's business improved a lot, "
The dozen or so jade ornaments made of "chicken blood red jadeite" were sold out, netting a profit of more than 12 million yuan after expenses.
Next, there are two things to solve. One is that Fengyuantang’s products are sold out and we need to buy more. The other is to prepare to open a store in the antiques industry, because the profits of antique stores will obviously be greater.
.
Of course, things have to be done one by one. The first thing to solve is the problem of goods in the jade jewelry store. The first choice is of course gambling on stones. The "chicken blood red jade" last time made Li Tianbao a lot of money.
That afternoon, Li Tianbao walked into Lin Meiru's "Ru Baotang" and wanted to ask him where he could get a better source of jade.
As soon as he entered Li Tianbao, he was surprised to find that Lin Meiru's store had obviously purchased a lot more goods, and it seemed that the revenue was no less than that of his own store.
"Why is there no one?" Li Tianbao saw that Lin Meiru was not in the store, but he knew that Lin Meiru must be in the small bedroom, so he shouted: "With the door open, no one is in the store, and you are not afraid of someone coming to steal things?
"
"Tch, everyone knows that I know you, a thrifty shopkeeper, who dares to steal my things?" Lin Meiru's voice came from the small bedroom.
"What are you doing? Why don't you come out to pick up the guests?" Li Tianbao deliberately teased.
"Is that what people said? I can never control your mouth." With that said, Lin Meiru opened the bedroom door curtain.
Li Tianbao saw a box and a few pieces of clothes placed in the bedroom, and asked strangely: "Are you going out?"
"Yes, I'm going to travel." Lin Meiru said mysteriously.
"No, you don't look like you are going on a trip?"
"Haha, let me tell you, I am going to participate in the jade auction in Myanmar." Lin Meiru sat on the sofa in the living room, and then said to Li Tianbao: "Drink the tea and pour it yourself."
"If you don't drink tea first, what does 'Emerald Public' mean?" Li Tianbao asked doubtfully.
"Thankfully, you are still the champion of the Stone Betting Competition. You almost beat me and Du Yuexin. You don't even know about the Myanmar Jade Public Sale."
Lin Meiru poured a glass of water, slowly put it in front of Li Tianbao, and then introduced to Li Tianbao the situation of the Burmese jade wool public sale.
It turns out that the Burmese jadeite wool 'public auction' was the peak of Burmese jadeite wool trading. It is a very independent and fair auction-like method. For the Burmese government, the management of jadeite resources is extremely strict, and jadeite wool is only available.
Only through the public sale can the goods be traded out of the country, and all other means of leaving the country are regarded as smuggling. The Myanmar jade public sale is like the 'touchstone' for jade merchants, and it is a competition for financial strength, vision and courage."
