After packing up Shen Yu's clothes and putting them back in his lounge, Pei Yuqin glanced at the big screen.
This disappointed her.
The two calligraphy and painting appraisers at the appraisal center are still looking at it.
It seems difficult to judge whether a painting is authentic or fake.
Pei Yuqin secretly sighed. Apart from Mr. Zhang, the mid-level calligraphy and painting appraisers in the company have really poor eyesight.
Fortunately, there was an unparalleled appraisal next to her. She turned to Shen Yu and said, "Shen Yu, can you explain in detail why this painting is definitely not an authentic work by Li Tang?"
Shen Yu put away his smile and said, "No problem. Sister Qin, you also know that people think highly of Li Tang. He is good at painting landscapes and has extraordinary brushwork.
"It is said that his original paintings have a dizzying and coercive look. Unfortunately, this painting does not have that.
"Li Tangchu learned from Li Sixun, the great master of the Northern School, and also studied from Jingguan and Fan Kuan, one of the three great masters of the Northern Song Dynasty.
"In the end, I integrated the essence of each school to create my own 'ink and wash vigorous' big ax cracking painting method, and finally became a great master who founded the sect of landscape painting.
"To identify Li Tang's calligraphy and paintings, the first step is to use the 'big ax chopper' technique.
"Because he is the founder of this kind of chai method.
"The chamfering method is one of the most important techniques in landscape painting.
"When painting, first outline the outline on paper and silk, and then use a dry pen dipped in ink to rub up, down, left and right.
"This technique can well express the veins and textures of rocks, giant peaks, and mountains.
"The most famous among the chapping methods are: hemp chapping, raindrop chapping, cirrus cloud chapping, ox hair chapping, and axe-splitting chapping, all of which are named after their resemblance.
"In the Tang Dynasty, Li Sixun pioneered small ax splitting, and later generations of painters respectfully called it Beizong.
"Wang Wei pioneered Yudianchun, and later generations respected him as the Southern Sect.
"Li Cheng pioneered Juan Yun Cha, and was known as the first master of Song Dynasty painting.
"And the founder of 'big axe splitting' is Li Tang.
"He painted mountains and rocks as if they were chopped with a knife and an axe, so it was called 'axe-chopped'.
"Li Tang can express mountains and rocks of different shapes in one stroke at the same time. This unparalleled painting skill cannot be seen in this painting.
"The three most exquisite paintings of the Song Dynasty are Fan Kuan's "Traveling in Streams and Mountains", Guo Xi's "Early Spring", and Li Tang's "Ten Thousand Valleys with Pine Wind".
"Li Tangneng, together with Fan Kuan and Guo Xi, is the first of the four Southern Song Dynasty families and belongs to the famous among famous people.
"If this painting is an authentic work by Li Tang, it would be a joke."
******
"Yes, that's very well said."
At this time, there were two more people in the room.
In the front is a lady who looks elegant and luxurious. She is wearing a silk skirt. It is she who is speaking.
Shen Yu's heart moved, and he instantly knew who the other party was.
The one who can appear quietly in President Gaogu's office is undoubtedly Mr. Qin.
Although Mr. Qin is nearly seventy years old, his actual age looks younger, in his early fifties and less than sixty.
However, the middle-aged man behind Mr. Qin who was wearing a black shirt and had thick eyebrows and big eyes surprised Shen Yu.
This person is none other than an old customer of his shop, the antique collector Chen Guangnan who originally asked him to look for ancient paintings and Qingtian stone seals.
"I didn't expect Brother Chen to be familiar with Mr. Qin?"
These things flashed through Shen Yu's mind. Without waiting for Pei Yuqin's introduction, he took two steps forward and bowed slightly, "Shen Yu has met Mr. Qin."
"She has a handsome face, a talented person, and her ability to appraise antiques is among the best among her peers. Mr. Shen really has a successor.
"Xiao Shen, Yu Qin has mentioned your name to me countless times. Xiao Qin is a good girl. I hope you will treat her better in the future.
"When you get married, I will give you a big gift.
"Besides, you don't have to worry about the house or the car. They are all ready-made." Mr. Qin kept looking at Shen Yu up and down as if looking at his son-in-law, and at the same time said something that made Shen Yu stunned.
"Mr. Qin, I...this???"
Shen Yu was completely confused, "Where are you from? Why did you get married? What did Sister Qin say to Mr. Qin?"
Thinking of this, Shen Yu couldn't help but look at Pei Yuqin.
Pei Yuqin tidied the black hair hanging down by her ears with a shy face. Seeing Shen Yu's eyes, she bit her silver teeth and leaned close to Shen Yu's ear, "I didn't say anything, I just told Mr. Qin a few things about our acquaintance." It’s a trivial matter, but when Mr. Qin heard that you were Mr. Shen’s descendant, he kept asking me to chase you..."
Shen Yu suddenly realized, and his heart suddenly relaxed, "Mr. Qin, Sister Qin and I are very destined. Chuzhou is a big place, but we can always meet in the vast sea of people.
"After we met, Sister Qin was very kind to me. If anything happens to Sister Qin in the future, I will definitely not say anything."
Mr. Qin frowned when he heard this.
Shen Yu's words sounded good, but with her experience, how could she not tell that Shen Yu was coping.
It seems that I have said a lot, but in fact I have said nothing, especially the emotional matters between men and women.
This answer was far from what she had in mind.
So she was not satisfied.
Pei Yuqin is 31 years old this year. In Mr. Qin's opinion, although this age is not very old, it is still quite embarrassing.
The young man in front of me has a good character, a good family background, and his looks are outstanding. He is also a top student at Dongjiang University.
I don’t have a girlfriend now, so I can’t let it go no matter what.
"I asked Xiaoqin to invite the Shen family boys to my birthday party, and I also personally went to "Hanlin Pavilion" to send an invitation to that stubborn old man Li Hanlin.
"Originally, I wanted to finalize the marriage between the two on the day of the birthday banquet.
"But since we met today, it's better to choose a different day. Let the Shen boy agree first, and then talk about the engagement with Li Hanlin.
"Mr. Shen's kindness to Li Hanlin is as great as a mountain. It is impossible for him to ignore Shen Yu's marriage.
"Although Yuqin is older than Shen Yu, with my reputation and the financial resources of the Pei family, Li Hanlin will definitely not refuse to agree."
Thinking of this, Mr. Qin felt that he had thought everything through and was about to speak.
Unexpectedly, just when she was about to speak, Shen Yu spoke first.
"Brother Chen, it's been a long time no see."
Shen Yu stretched out his hand towards Chen Guangnan behind Mr. Qin with a smile on his face.
Chen Guangnan had actually wanted to say hello to Shen Yu for a long time, but Mr. Qin didn't give him a chance to speak.

He stretched out his hand and shook Shen Yu's hand, "Xiao Shen, we two brothers have met again. I haven't seen you for a while, and I really miss you. I have to sit down and have a few drinks at night."
Shen Yu winked at Chen Guangnan, then looked at the door again.
Chen Guangnan immediately understood. He smiled at Mr. Qin and said, "Cousin, you have a conversation with Mr. Pei. Xiao Shen and I went out to get some fresh air. We two brothers really haven't seen each other for a while."
"Yes, Sister Qin, Mr. Qin has come all the way. You talk to Mr. Qin while Brother Chen and I go out to drink some coffee to refresh ourselves."
After the two of them finished speaking, they didn't care whether Mr. Qin and Pei Yuqin agreed or not, they just opened the door and left.
The office area is brightly lit, and the sounds of walking, typing, copying machines, and phone calls come and go.
There is a full-time service staff at the door of Pei Yuqin's office.
She is a young girl in her twenties, with average appearance but very gentle and intellectual.
When she saw Shen Yu and Chen Guangnan coming out, she smiled and said hello: "Hello, sir, how can I help you?"
Shen Yu smiled: "Is there a quieter reception room?"
"Do you have an appointment?"
The question asked by the other party obviously caught Shen Yu off guard, "Make an appointment?"
The girl nodded seriously, "According to our company's regulations, guests need to make a reservation to use the reception room."
Shen Yu smiled awkwardly, "There are really no reservations. You can just find a room. We are just talking. We can't just stand in your office and chat, right?"
"Well, no reservation is required for the VIP lounge."
"Okay."
"Then please come with me."
The lounge was luxuriously decorated with top furniture brands. The girl poured Shen Yu and Chen Guangnan each a cup of coffee and closed the door of the lounge.
However, she did not leave, standing at the door as if she was ready to serve the distinguished guests.
"Mr. Qin is my cousin, which means that her mother is my father's aunt." Chen Guangnan first explained his relationship with Mr. Qin to Shen Yu.
Shen Yu nodded, "Brother Chen, why do you want to come to Gaogu? Do you have antiques to be auctioned?"
Chen Guangnan shook his head, "You, Brother Chen, and I are well-known in the collecting world. We only have access to antiques but not out. The main reason we came here this time was to borrow two appraisers from Gao Gu and me to buy the old house.
"But now that I have met you, brother, I have to trouble you once."
