Seeing through stones, the awakening of superpowers

Chapter 409: No one may believe that the thing is in your hands

Principal Lin clicked his tongue. He knew that Dong Qichang was a master, but he didn't expect the price of his works to be so expensive.

However, this also requires a prerequisite, that is, it must be authentic.

As for whether it is an authentic work, Colonel Lin is really not sure, but he can be sure that even if it is an ancient imitation, it is definitely the best among the best. If you look at it this way, the price of several million is acceptable.

Now that Lin Xiao has bought a house in Haicheng, it would be nice to have some fine calligraphy paintings as decorations.

So he immediately decided to buy it, but he had to pay the price.

He deliberately stood up, lowered his head and looked back and forth at the two works for 10 minutes, and then said:

"Old sir, I feel that this is an ancient imitation of Dong Qichang's work, but the quality is good and the level is very high. What do you think?"

The old man smiled:

"As for this, I asked experts to look at it. Some of them think it is Dong's genuine product. To say the least, even if it is an imitation, it is still the best among imitations, so the price I offered at 400 million is not expensive."

Principal Lin shook his head:

"Hey, if it's a genuine product, it would be really amazing, but I think 400 million is a bit expensive for a replica. So, I'll take 300 million."

When the old man heard that Principal Lin was going to buy it, an imperceptible smile appeared on his lips, but Principal Lin caught it anyway.

Thirty-four million is definitely a lot of money for their family. Although the villa is for sale, it is very difficult to sell such a large object in a short time. It is more practical to get real money.

"Hey, young man, you are really good at bargaining. I wanted to sell these two works for 300 million ten years ago. Let me give you another 390 million. When you buy my villa, I I’ll give you more discounts, you can do it.”

This old man is really an old fox. In just one sentence, he wanted Principal Lin to buy a villa from him.

Lin did not agree, and the two took turns pulling each other for a while, and finally the deal was completed at a price of 360 million.

It’s not that Principal Lin cares about the hundreds of thousands, but the longer he pulls, the happier the buyer will be.

If the old man said 400 million and Lin Xiao immediately said the deal was done, the old man would definitely be unhappy and feel that he had lost money on the sale, and he might even directly regret it.

After selling two paintings and calligraphy, the old man was very happy and said with a proud face:

"Young man, this box is also given to you. It is filled with activated carbon, which is moisture-proof and mildew-proof. If you just leave it like this, there will be no problem."

Principal Lin readily accepted it. After all, he might not have time to deal with these two works in the short term, so it would be good to have a place to preserve them.

After buying the paintings, Schoolmaster Lin could finally say goodbye. There was no other way, this family was too enthusiastic.

Principal Lin was about to return to the house he bought and put down the two works, but then Gu Xinyi sent a message:

"Where did I see the two works you just posted? My grandpa is very interested in them."

Schoolmaster Lin thought to himself, Old Man Gu, a ready-made master, was there, and we should ask him for an appraisal, so he replied:

"I bought it, and it's in my hand."

After hearing that Schoolmaster Lin had purchased two works, Gu Xinyi immediately called:

"College Lin, where are you? Come to my shop now. I want to appreciate those two works."

Principal Lin didn't expect Gu Xinyi to be so impatient and said with a smile:

"Your grandpa is in the store. If he is here, he can keep an eye on you."

Gu Xinyi didn't take it seriously:

"Why, you look down on my appraisal level, I'm pretty good too, okay?"

Principal Lin knew this. Although Gu Xinyi's appearance was a bit unconventional, she still had deep knowledge in antique appreciation. When she faced customers in the store before, she always introduced them clearly and clearly.

"Okay, I'll go over now. How about asking the old man to come over too? Or maybe I go to his house to ask for advice?"

"Hurry up, he's in the store."

When Principal Lin heard about it, he immediately drove over.

The big box looked big, but in fact it was not heavy. Principal Lin moved the box directly to the store.

When Gu Xinyi saw Principal Lin coming in, she immediately came out with a look of joy on her face:

"Hey, why are you carrying such a big box? What's in it, you bastard?"

Principal Lin spat:

"Those two works, these boxes were given by the seller. I'm afraid the things will get wet."

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a weird seller."

At this time, Old Man Gu also came out and looked at Schoolmaster Lin with a complicated look:

"You boy, you are brave enough. Tell me, how much did you spend to buy these two paintings? How many tens of thousands of yuan did you spend?"

Principal Lin was furious because this old man was really good at killing people.

"Old man, you can buy it for tens of thousands of dollars. This is Dong Qichang's masterpiece."

"Tsk, there are so many Dong Qichang's things, most of them are fakes."

The old man looked disdainful.

Principal Lin saw something fishy and immediately replied:

"If you really thought that what I bought was a forgery, you wouldn't have let me come over. Old man, are you also planning on having these two works of art as a bad idea?"

Old Man Gu's face changed slightly, and then he said:

"Look at things first."

Principal Lin carefully took out the work, then rolled it up and spread it on the desk.

Old Man Gu had already prepared a magnifying glass. After looking at the whole thing, he immediately started to observe it carefully.

Gu Xinyi was not idle either and followed closely to observe.

After watching for a while, Old Man Gu raised his head and asked:

"College Lin, how much did you spend on these two works?"

"800."

Principal Lin reported this number without thinking. There was no need for him to tell the truth from his heart to Old Man Gu.

Gu Xinyi looked surprised:

"Wow, Colonel Lin, you've made a fortune."

Old Man Gu did not laugh at Colonel Lin, but asked:

"Do you think these two works are authentic?"

Old Man Gu still admired School Lin's ability in appraising treasures, but he didn't know that School Lin was only good at appraising the authenticity of antiques. In other aspects, he was still far behind.

"I feel that there is a high probability that it is authentic, otherwise I would not have spent a lot of money to buy it."

Old Man Gu nodded and then said:

"I think the same as you. I think these two works are authentic."

"what!"

Gu Xinyi was very shocked. She didn't expect that these two works were actually genuine. Wouldn't it mean that Principal Lin would make a fortune?

Principal Lin was very happy to see that his work had been recognized by Old Man Gu.

"However, Colonel Lin, you have these two works in your hands. If you say they are genuine, no one may believe them."

Lin Xiao admitted this. He was unknown in the antique world, so how could anyone believe what he said.

However, he is not short of [-] million yuan now. He is very satisfied that these two works can be recognized by everyone like Old Man Gu.
