This is a Song Dynasty painting.

Shen Lang looked up and found that this antique shop was called "Zhiquzhai".

However, it is not only the authentic works that can make Shen Lang stop.

And the counterfeit will also make Shen Lang stop.

Today I came here for the investigation, that the Qizhen Pavilion appraisal certificate was forged, and I didn't come here to pick up missing treasures.

Therefore, it is not only the authentic works and treasures that can attract Shen Lang's attention, but also those fine imitations.

As long as it is a fake, it is possible to lead to the conspiracy behind it.

This Jiuding Antique City is the largest antique market in the whole of the south of the Yangtze River. Various antique forces are intricate.

If Shen Lang wanted to investigate the matter clearly, this was the place he had to come.

At this moment, Shen Lang walked over and picked up the painting by Yan Wengui, a painter of the Song Dynasty.

Soon, the owner of the painting also joined him.

"Young man, did you fall in love? Let me tell you, this painting is really good. This is the painting of Yan Wengui, a painter of the Song Dynasty. Do you know Yan Wengui?"

The owner of Zhiquzhai first mentioned that the owner of the painting was Yan Wengui, a painter of the Song Dynasty, and asked Shen Lang if he knew Yan Wengui.

But before Shen Lang could answer, the boss of Zhiquzhai said: "It doesn't matter if I don't know, let me tell you about Yan Wengui."

"Yan Wengui is a painter of the Northern Song Dynasty, also known as Yan Wenji, from Wu Xing. He is good at painting landscapes, houses, and figures. During Song Taizong's time, he went to Bianliang to sell paintings on the streets. He was discovered by Zhao Gaoyi of the Painting Academy and recommended him. Later Entering the Hanlin Academy of Painting was appreciated by Emperor Taizong."

"He often draws from his own ingenuity, and he does not imitate the ancients. The scenery he paints is clean and elegant, and he is good at combining landscapes with boundary paintings. "

"The depiction is subtle, the brushwork is beautiful, and the realm is majestic. It is known as the scenery of the Yan family."

The boss of Zhiquzhai introduced Yan Wengui's life and achievements.

No need to guess, Shen Lang also knows the purpose of the boss of Zhiquzhai.

This boss, he regards him as a novice in calligraphy and painting.

The reason for introducing so much of Yan Wengui's life is to make Shen Lang dizzy, and make Shen Lang feel how awesome the author of this painting is and how precious this painting is, thus arousing his strong desire to buy.

However, the boss of Zhiquzhai used the wrong method.

Shen Lang is an expert in this industry, and he is a plum blossom with a clear eye. How could he be led by the nose by the boss of Zhiquzhai.

After the boss gave an introduction, Shen Lang pointed to the painting and said: "This "Song Yan Wengui Jiangshan Tower View" is the oldest "paper" landscape painting in existence. It is made of silk and designed Color, length: 31 cm, width: 9 cm."

Shen Lang has studied the paintings of Song Dynasty painters quite a bit, and even the size of the original works can be very accurate.

The boss of Zhiquzhai was shocked when he heard what Shen Lang said.

He frowned, and looked at Shen Lang suspiciously.

"Young man, do you know calligraphy and painting?" the owner of Zhiquzhai asked.

"Of course, I have studied the calligraphy and paintings of the Song Dynasty." Shen Lang said.

"I heard you speak well and soundly. You seem to have a lot of knowledge. Since you know calligraphy and painting, then I will give ancient paintings to gifted scholars. I will not keep this painting for regular customers. You can take the 100 million."

The owner of Zhiquzhai wanted to sell this painting to Shen Lang at a price of 100 million.

But Shen Lang smiled coldly: "Just this fake, is it worth 100 million? Take home 1000 yuan, and it can be used as a decorative painting."

The owner of Zhiquzhai never expected that Shen Lang would bluntly say that this "View of Jiangshan Tower" by Yan Wengui in the Song Dynasty was a fake.

This made him extremely unhappy.

"Young man, you can't talk nonsense. You are in my Zhiquzhai shop, and you can't deliberately smash my signboard!" The tone of the Zhiquzhai boss suddenly became sharp.

"What do you mean deliberately smashing your signboard? No one can guarantee that all the antiques in your antique shop are authentic. Could it be that you can't have fakes in Zhiquzhai?" Shen Lang asked back.

"You ask around in this antique city. We, Zhiquzhai, cooperate with the Ling family. Our Zhiquzhai is recognized by the Ling family. It is a five-star reputation antique shop. If there is a problem with my store, what will happen to the Ling family? May be rated as a five-star store!"

The boss of Zhiquzhai argued hard, defending himself and Zhiquzhai.

Shen Lang didn't care about anything else, this painting was a fake, Shen Lang would never buy it, spending 100 million would be a fool.

Although this 100 million is a small amount of money to him, being rich does not mean being a fool.

The reason why Shen Lang continued to argue with the boss of Zhiquzhai was to elicit the following words from the boss of Zhiquzhai.

"This Jiuding Antique City belongs to the Ling family, right?" Shen Lang asked the boss.

"That's right, Jiuding Antique City is the largest antique market in the south of the Yangtze River built by the Ling family's latest investment. It was put into use half a year ago. We, Zhiquzhai, were invited by the Ling family to enter the antique city. It is a five-star reputation recognized by the Ling family. shop!"

The boss of Zhiquzhai repeated that his shop is a five-star reputable antique shop, and he pulled the Ling family out to tell Shen Lang that his antique shop is absolutely reputable, thus showing that this painting is from Yan Wengui. authentic.

When hearing what the boss of Zhiquzhai said, Shen Lang began to wonder if there was something tricky about the Ling family behind it.

Or, would the Ling family provide high-quality fakes to these trustworthy shops in the antique market?

Shen Lang held his temper and continued to deal with the boss of Zhiquzhai.

He said: "So what if the Ling family approves? They are investors, developers of the antique city, and not senior experts in appraising treasures. They can guarantee that your painting is authentic? You are far away."

Shen Lang is leading the boss of Zhiquzhai step by step into the pit he dug.

"Ling Yu, the young master of the Ling family, is a master of antique appraisal. He is studying the History Department of Nanfeng University, and his teacher is Professor Ning, a historian at Nanfeng University. Do you think it is your major or Ling Yu's major?"

The owner of Zhiquzhai also realized that Shen Lang was a difficult buyer, but he didn't want to give up the business, so he moved the young master of the Ling family out and persuaded Shen Lang to buy the painting.

"Professor Ning? I really haven't heard of it." Shen Lang said.

What Shen Lang said from the boss of Zhiquzhai contained a lot of information.

First Ling Yu, then this Professor Ning.

About Ling Yu, Shen Lang knew about it, and there was still some conflict with the Ling family.

But Professor Ning of Nanfeng University, Shen Lang didn't know.

"Look, you haven't even heard of Professor Ning, which means you are a complete layman." The boss of Zhiquzhai said.

"I don't even know the name, how can I know which Professor Ning it is." Shen Lang smiled faintly.

"Professor Ning is Young Master Ling Yu, who specially paid a lot of money to hire him. You don't even know this as a special consultant for the antique city. That's an outsider, an outsider." The boss of Zhiquzhai kept saying that Shen Lang was an outsider.

Everyone knows Sima Zhao's heart.

This is one of the routines of antique shops. When the buyer thinks something is wrong, the antique shop will say that the buyer is a layman, thereby raising the value of the thing.

But if the buyer is interested in something, the people in the antique shop will say that the buyer has good eyesight.

I have to say that there are so many routines in the antique circle.

However, these routines are useless to Shen Lang.

"Is it an amateur if you don't know him? It also depends on whether he has the qualifications for me to know him." Shen Lang said bluntly.

Yes, with Shen Lang's teacher and qualifications, I am afraid that [-]% of the so-called experts in the entire Jiangnan antique circle are not as good as him.

If Professor Ning is quite famous and has a distinguished status in the antique circle, it is impossible for Shen Lang not to know about it.

Therefore, it can only be shown that Professor Ning's reputation and status in the circle are really not outstanding.

"Hey, young man, you're talking loudly. Professor Ning has a lot of status in the industry. It seems that you are really not in the industry. Well, for the sake of you being an outsider, I won't cheat you either. Let’s sell this painting to you according to the purchase price, 80, do you think it’s okay?”

The boss of Zhiquzhai started the routine again.

"You can buy it, but you have to prove that it is an authentic work. You can't just say it without proof. You say your store is a five-star credit store. If that's the case, then show the proof." Shen Lang said.

"What certificate?" the boss of Zhiquzhai asked.

"Certificate, without an appraisal certificate, how can I be sure that this painting is really the authentic work of Song Dynasty painter Yan Wengui?" Shen Lang guided the boss of Zhiquzhai to do it step by step.

The boss of Zhiquzhai had a smug look on his face.

Obviously, he now believes that Shen Lang is a novice, and under normal circumstances novices will regard the appraisal certificate as very important.

Because novices do not have the ability to distinguish between true and false, that is, the identification certificate can make them feel at ease.

So, the boss of Zhiquzhai decisively asked the shop assistant to bring over the certificate of appraisal.

"Young man, look, this is the authentication certificate of this painting, look at the steel seal on it, it was authenticated by Qizhen Pavilion."

Finally, Shen Lang saw the desired result.

The reason why he talked so much with the boss of Zhiquzhai was to let him see the certificate.

If he asks directly, the other party will definitely become suspicious, and if he asks again, it will not be easy to ask.

Shen Lang took it, glanced at it, and found that the steel seal on it was really produced by Qizhen Pavilion.

It's exactly the same!
And there is no difference in the handwriting of the big brother above.

Shen Lang frowned slightly, he felt that there were more and more doubts about this matter, and things became more and more complicated.

"Young man, how is it? Now you can believe that this is the authentic work of Yan Wengui, a painter of the Song Dynasty, right?" the owner of Zhiquzhai said with a smile.

"So what if there is a certificate, a fake is a fake, I spent 80 to buy a fake painting and take it home, what's wrong with me?" Shen Lang sneered.

Now, the boss of Zhiquzhai became angry.

"The authentication certificate of Qizhen Pavilion is right in front of you, but you still say it is a fake. I think you are here to find fault!"

Shen Lang remained unruffled in the face of danger, and continued to say calmly: "Whether it is a fake or not, you know best in your heart, you treat me as a novice, it is because of your stupid eyes!"
