C140 These Days There Are so Many Fools
"Take down my crappy store!?" Chinese Goatee Herb sneered, "In the Jiang City, I'm afraid there aren't many people who would dare to say such words! I'm curious, who's your son-in-law!? "
To be able to open a shop on the antique street, without sufficient connections and skills, it was impossible for him to open the store any further!
"Hmph, saying it will scare you to death! My son-in-law is the chief appraiser of the Jiang City Museum! " Hann Meiao held her head high, "I advise you to quickly return the money to me. Otherwise, if my son-in-law comes, he can directly identify all the counterfeit goods in your store and make it so that you can no longer sell them!"
Hearing that, Old man Chinese Goatee Herb immediately laughed out loud, "Old bitch, you want to get rich and lose your mind, right? How dare you say that the chief appraiser of the museum, Mr. Qin Fengyang, is your son-in-law!? It's enough for him to be your father! "
The moment Geezer Chinese Goatee Herb finished his sentence, the surrounding people all burst out into laughter!
How can you stay in the antique circle without knowing Qin Fengyang!
Therefore, the moment Hann Mei said that, everyone treated her as a braggart!
"What are you laughing for!?" Hann Mei stretched out her fat hand and pointed in a circle, "You bunch of ignorant people, I'm too lazy to tell you, quickly return the money to me!"
To be honest, Hann Mei wasn't too sure about Chen Yi's identity. Under such extreme anxiety, she actually started coughing out of anger!
At this moment, Shen Yueran rushed over to help hold Hann Mei up, "Mom, don't be angry. If you really are tricked, then let's call the police and get help from the police!"
Shen Yueran rubbed Hann Mei's back as she spoke!
"Call the police!?" Upon hearing that Shen Yueran was going to call the police, Old Chinese Goatee Herb immediately sneered, "Alright, then call the police. I want to see who can control my price tag if I am willing to accept any business deal!"
The antique street was like this!
No matter how high the price is, as long as you approve and are willing to buy, you can hand over the money and take it away. In the future, if there are any problems, we will not be responsible for any of them!
Thus, other than a few antiques that had gone through the formal verification process, the rest of the items did not even have a certificate or an invoice. Therefore, even if he did find the police, they would still be of no use!
"You, you evil merchant! You are shameless! " Hann Mei was so angry that she covered her heaving chest.
Chen Yi, who was standing aside, sighed.
He already knew that Qin Fengyang would be blackmailed by Hann Mei when he brought her home to take the ancient silk painting. However, Chen Yi didn't expect that this would happen so quickly!
At this moment, Shen Yueran revealed a distress signal towards Chen Yi. Chen Yi had no choice but to walk forward.
"Mom, show me that painting of yours!" Chen Yi said calmly.
Hann Mei saw that Chen Yi had stood up and quickly pulled Chen Yi's hand. She pointed at Chinese Goatee Herb and said, "Quick, tell him who you are!"
At this moment, Hann Mei seemed to have forgotten about the five hundred thousand yuan incident. She was wholeheartedly trying to regain her lost face!
Chen Yi sighed. Just as he was about to report his casual job at the museum, he heard Chinese Goatee Herb sneer.
"Yo, I presume this is the son-in-law of the chief appraiser that you mentioned!?" Are you sure you don't want to take a piss and look at yourself? With Master Qin Fengyang's name, you think you're worthy of impersonating him!? "
Chinese Goatee Herb looked at Chen Yi with a cold smile, as if he was sure that Chen Yi was just an impostor who only knew how to brag. His face was full of confidence!
"Hahaha, you slapped your face!? Master Qin is over the age of 20, a brat that hasn't even grown hair yet, how dare he pretend to be you!? "
"Hmph, to think that you are acting so arrogantly. If you have the ability to do so, then take a look at this painting and tell me what you think!"
"Disgraceful! This old one has been disgraced and this little one has reconnected with him. As expected, this old one is dishonest!"
The surrounding spectators sneered, as if they were prepared to watch a joke!
Chen Yi couldn't be bothered to care about them. He directly laid Hann Mei's painting flat on the table and started to carefully size it up!
The scroll was about half a meter wide and 1.2 meters long. It was a very common Ink Splitting Mountain painting, simple and unadorned, full of the charm of the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty. The scroll was about half a meter wide and 1.2 meters long, a very common Ink Splitting Mountain painting, simple and unadorned, full of the charm of the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty.
The original name of the Eight Mountain People was Zhu Hu, and he was a famous painter from the late Ming and early Qing Dynasty.
Chen Yi nodded, "The seal may be Zhu Hu, but judging from the art of painting, it was copied by the later generations. It was taken out after some work. Boss, how much money did you sell this painting to my mother-in-law?"
This painting was a good one, and coupled with the slight sense of age, it was worth at least ten thousand dollars.
As the saying goes, an expert's action would be known as soon as he made a move. Chen Yi's words immediately stunned Chinese Goatee Herb and the other onlookers!
This young man had actually seen through it!? Could it be a lie!?
However, Chinese Goatee Herb didn't seem to care whether Chen Yi was lying or not, he leaned back on the reclining chair, took the fan and started shaking it, "Brat, regardless of whether this painting is real or fake, even if it is fake, it is your mother-in-law who misjudged it and deserved to live. I will tell you the truth, I sold this painting for 500,000 yuan, don't even think about giving it back!"
When Chen Yi heard this, he was speechless. He thought to himself that the money wasn't his, but it didn't hurt to spend it. He actually spent five hundred thousand just like that!
Chen Yi looked at the painting on the table carefully and observed it from left to right for a while. Finally, his eyes lit up and he said to Boss Chinese Goatee Herb with a smile, "No, we won't return any money. To be honest, I think it's cheap to buy this painting for 500,000 yuan!"
"You, you piece of trash, what did you say!?" When Hann Mei heard this, she could no longer care about the pain in her heart due to her anger. She jumped up and scolded Chen Yi. She was so angry that she almost vomited blood!
Shen Yueran was slightly stunned when she saw this, "Chen Yi, what nonsense are you spouting!"
That shop owner admitted it was a fake, and you actually said five hundred thousand was cheap!?
Hearing that, old man Chinese Goatee Herb immediately laughed out loud. His triangular eyes almost squeezed together. He clapped his hands and laughed, "Right, right, 500 thousand for this painting. You guys have struck gold!"
"Hahaha …"
The surrounding crowd also burst into laughter!
The antique street had never been lacking in people who fished for fame and didn't know how to feign ignorance. Obviously, Chen Yi was also classified as one of them!
"Boss, you're right. It's true that we made a killing. This painting is indeed good stuff!" Chen Yi laughed as he spoke. Holding this painting was like holding a precious treasure, afraid that it would be damaged in the slightest!
At this time, Old Chinese Goatee Herb also finally stopped laughing, and said very generously: "Good, good, good, young man, I didn't expect you to be so good, for the sake of you being so good at being a person, as long as you like the things on my shelf, you can choose any one of them, it's my 'congratulatory gift' to you for buying 'good paintings'!"
Chen Yi followed Chinese Goatee Herb's hand and looked over. There was a shelf next to the shop, which was open air, basically full of junk. The most expensive one was not more than 500 yuan, so even if Chen Yi took a broken sack and took it with him, he wouldn't feel sorry for it!
"No regrets!?" Chen Yi raised his eyebrows. His voice was extremely loud, as if he was trying to let everyone around him hear it!
Chinese Goatee Herb didn't care too much. He replied with the same tone, "I will never be able to keep up with your words. I've always kept my word. If I say I'll give one to you, I'll give it to you. I won't regret it!"
The surrounding customers scoffed. Wasn't it just giving you a piece of trash and making it look like nothing? These days, there are really many idiots!
