"I see, Brother Chuan, how do you know whether a painting is authentic or fake before you get started?" Shen Yu smiled at Pan Shichuan with sincere eyes.
"I saw something was wrong with the painting, so I drove away the little boss who was selling the painting. He deceived people and tricked me, Pan Shichuan. I really didn't know how to live or die! It's good that I didn't roll up my sleeves and beat him up.
"You also know that in this flea market, everyone knows exactly who is carrying what object and which door they have entered.
"Brother Pan, I'm not bragging. Basically, no one in the entire flea market will accept his goods from sellers in my store.
"Because if it's an authentic work, Brother Pan, I won't let it get away!
"Sure enough, the little boss took this painting to more than a dozen stores, but no one wanted it. Unexpectedly, this painting was bought by Fan Shigui, a fool. What do you think would be wrong to buy for 60,000 yuan? Is it so easy to pick up items from antique stores? What a bargain!"
Shen Yu knew that this was Pan Shichuan's confidence in his vision and financial resources. What came out of his store must be fakes, because the real things would definitely stay in the store due to his vision and financial resources!
After rubbing his hands, Pan Shichuan continued: "But Shen Yu, Fan Shigui is my old neighbor. Although this man looks fierce, he is actually powerless.
"When we were young, he never won a fight with anyone. Every time he got beaten up, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. His heart was not that bad, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to hang out in the flea market for so many years.
"For Brother Pan's sake, don't treat him as an enemy when we meet in the future. I am angry with him. After all, we grew up together, otherwise he would not be able to lend me hundreds of thousands."
Shen Yu nodded and smiled back at Pan Shichuan, "I didn't lose anything, and I gained a painting. Forget it! I've heard of Fan Shigui a long time ago, but I don't know what he does. What?"
Pan Shichuan laughed: "He is just a second-rate antiques dealer! He knows some rich people who like arty but ignorant people. He will buy whatever others like.
"He is extremely proficient in miscellaneous antiques, including bamboo and wood carvings, ancient coins, ink stone seals, antique beads, purple clay pots, snuff bottles, enamelware, etc. He has in-depth research on each of them. Three points better than me.
"It's just that it's not even an introduction to calligraphy and painting. It seems that someone came to him to buy ancient paintings, so he bought this so-called authentic work of Tang Yin. But he was not sure, so he came to Liu Dahai for appraisal. I guess Liu Dahai doesn't have enough eyesight, so he called you here."
"Oh, that's it!" Shen Yu looked calm on the surface, but in his heart he admired Pan Shichuan. The big antique dealer who could open a shop in the flea market really had a lot of experience, and he was right at first guess.
After a pause, Pan Shichuan suddenly asked: "Shen Yu, what do you think of the huge passenger flow in this flea market and antique city?"
Shen Yu thought for a moment and then said slowly: "Gold in troubled times is collected in prosperous times. This saying will remain unchanged for thousands of years. It is only in today's peaceful and prosperous times that antiques will reflect their true value.
"Whether it is in the office of the chairman or president, a small front room, or the study room at home, putting a few pieces of porcelain on the ancient shelf and hanging a few famous calligraphy and paintings on the wall will always look impressive. It is pleasing to the eye and relaxed to the heart.
"Not to mention that from time to time there are stories of someone buying an authentic Kangxi blue and white porcelain, and someone buying an authentic Dong Qichang for only a few hundred yuan, and then becoming rich instantly.
"What's more, people flock to this flea market to hunt for treasures. It's great to find treasures, but it's not a big deal even if you spend 1,800 yuan on eye-catching. It's a rather elegant topic to talk about at the wine table."
Snap!
Pan Shichuan smacked the lower table hard, "Well said! Shen Yu, you also know the truth about antiques in prosperous times and gold in troubled times. Now that the antique business in the peaceful and prosperous times has a great future, why are you wasting your youth by opening an antique shop in the antique city?
"In this way, you can come directly to Pan Ge's store and I will give you 400,000 yuan a year.
"In addition, I will give you an annual capital usage of 10 million. You don't have to tell me about all the acquisitions within this limit. You can take it if you want. All losses will be mine. I will give you a commission for every million you receive good things. One hundred thousand, how about it?"
"This?" Shen Yu never imagined that Pan Shichuan wanted to poach him, offered him such a high annual salary, and gave him the right to use the store's funds at will. This was different from those who had been with him for decades. The palm's eye is almost the same, even comparable to that of a shopkeeper!
Seeing that Shen Yu was silent, Pan Shichuan continued: "Don't be embarrassed, Brother Pan. Your shop usually doesn't do much business, right? I think the most you can do is earn some appraisal fees. Look at your lips, which are chapped. That's what you earn. Is it worth the money?
"Let's be sincere to each other, Mr. Shen's only grandson must not be cared for wherever he goes. Brother, why are you doing this?"
Shen Yu explained with a smile: "The passenger flow of the antique city is indeed not that of the flea market, but apart from being a little tiring for the eyes and neck, appraising antiques is not that difficult compared to many people. The wind can't blow and the rain can't do it." I’m quite content if I can’t catch it!”
Pan Shichuan really admired Shen Yu very much and said sincerely: "I know your ability, but you may not have business every day when you open a store at a young age. Come and help Brother Pan!
"When that little boss came to the shop to sell paintings, if you were in charge of "Tao Gu Zhai", why should I run into the shop like a fool?"
Shen Yu lowered his head and said nothing. He knew that Pan Shichuan's real purpose was not as simple as helping him! He wanted to go to his store to help him, and what he wanted was not his own eyesight!
What he really wants is Shen Ban and Zhang Dusun’s golden name.
Shen Banzhang has friends all over the world!
Shen Banzhang, who has never had an eye piercing in his life!
It is said that Shen Banzhang passed on all his life appraisal experience to his grandson!
There are even rumors that he has a method for identifying antiques, which will never fail. Pan Shichuan might also want to ask him about this identification technique.
To be honest, Shen Yuzhen would have thought about it carefully before getting the special ability, but it is impossible to work for him now.
"Brother Chuan, let me think about it before I reply to you." There was no emotion on Shen Yu's face, as if he was unmoved by the annual salary of hundreds of thousands.
"No problem, think about it, come to Taoguzhai to find me at any time." Seeing that Shen Yu did not agree to him immediately, Pan Shichuan was a little disappointed, but he did not force it.
Of course, he didn't dare to force Shen Yu. With Li Hanlin around, no one in the entire flea market dared to really bully Shen Yu, including him, Pan Shichuan.
Li Hanlin was originally from a family of traditional Chinese medicine. Except for the eldest brother, who ran away from home in anger and went to Dongjiang, he and his third brother were all famous apricot forest masters.
In particular, his third brother Li Hanmo is a famous Chinese medicine expert in Jiangnan Province. He has treated countless wealthy businessmen and celebrities. You have no idea which powerful person has received favors from the Li family.
Moreover, Li Hanlin entered the antique shop in the 1980s and has been doing this for thirty years. He has good relations with all the big bosses in the antique shops in Chuzhou. Li Hanlin has always regarded himself as a disciple of Chongzhonglou. It is no joke to offend him. of.
Watching Pan Shichuan leave, Shen Yu turned around, rolled up the painting and put it in a cloth bag. Since Fan Shigui said it would be given to him, then the painting would be his, and he was wise. Otherwise, even if he went to ask Mr. Li, he would have to drive away this guy and dare to fight. The idea of grandfather’s seal is so courageous.
After tidying up Lao Liu's stall, he took out his phone to notify Lao Xu from "Old Porcelain Xuan" and took a shortcut out of the flea market.
