New Times, New Hell

Zhan Wei originally saw that Shang Que refused to sell the painting, and thought that he was either a real treasure and wanted to collect it himself, or he wanted to sell it for a price. These two situations have been seen a lot in their circle, and there are ways to deal with them .

It never occurred to him that Shang Que, who had refused so simply in front of him, turned around and gave the painting to his staff.

Zhan Wei's circle of friends is either rich or expensive. It's not that he has never seen someone who is generous, but he has never seen such a generous Cheng Shangque.

A famous painting of [-] million yuan, I gave it as soon as I said it, without even blinking my eyes.

For a moment, Zhan Wei, who thought he was well-informed, was stunned and was speechless for a while.

Yu Zhengdu was also shocked, thinking of the set of rabbit hair black glaze cups that his family had received before, which made him afraid to resign later. He will probably be working for Luo Feng in this life. I have to work for the company all my life, real cows and real horses.

With a serious expression on his face, he pushed the painting back righteously: "The boss is too polite, this painting is too expensive, I can't take it."

Shang Que frowned: "How expensive is it? Just a painting."

Zhan Wei: ... Just a painting?You can really pretend!

Fortunately, because of Shang Que's tough attitude, he refused to cooperate with the interview. After the media couldn't ask for more information, they could only disperse and go to interview the experts and organizers. Otherwise, Yu Zhengdu probably would have liked to make headlines.

Even so, as the holders of "You Song Feng Ge", there are still many people who are secretly observing Shang Que.

Among them, a gossip-oriented media stared at Shang Que unwillingly. When he saw Shang Que's movements, he immediately smelled the explosion. The little reporter brought the photographer and turned the gun to come over.

Fortunately, Yu Zhengdu also kept his eyes open, he didn't want to be on the news, he immediately pulled up Shang Que and ran away when he saw something wrong.

The little reporter didn't catch anyone, so he had no choice but to turn to interview Zhan Wei: "Mr. Zhan, what were you talking about with Mr. Shang just now?"

Zhan Wei will come to his senses now, the more he thinks about it, the more he feels that he has been tricked, then Shang Que must have teamed up with the company's employees to pretend to be a force, how much is his total net worth?Give away a famous painting worth [-] million?The richest man doesn't have the guts!

Zhan Wei was so angry that he deliberately set a trap for Shang Que, and said to the reporter in a calm voice: "Hehe, he just said that he would give "The Wind Picture of You Song" to his employees."

The reporter's eyes lit up: "Really?"

"Of course it's true." Zhan Wei sneered, "I can still tell such a lie."

The reporter immediately looked like he was getting big news. This is what Zhan Wei wanted. This kind of gossip media would definitely not miss such big news. If he is reluctant to give away the painting in front of the reporter, the media will edit him to death, and when the press release comes out, he will definitely be laughed at.

Yu Zhengdu took Shang Que to a place where no one was paying attention, and then solemnly handed the painting back to him: "Boss, I really can't take this."

Shang Que: "Don't you want to sell for money?"

Yu Zhengdu couldn't laugh or cry: "I was just joking."

Shang Que pursed his lips: "But when I said I would send you off, I meant it seriously."

Yu Zhengdu was stunned for a moment, then looked at him helplessly: "Why did you give me such a valuable thing?"

"How can there be so many reasons?" Shang Que turned his head away, "I just want to give it away?"

"Of course not, I'm not a casual person." Yu Zhengdu said, "If you don't give me a reason, I won't accept it."

Shang Que's eyes flickered, he thought for a while, and asked tentatively, "Overtime pay?"

Yu Zhengdu rolled his eyes and refused: "Do you think this reason is reasonable?"

Shang Que raised his head and raised his chest: "It's reasonable."

"It doesn't make sense to me." Yu Zhengdu crossed his arms, "Please respect my IQ."

Shang Que fell silent.

The two were in a stalemate, and Shen Wenrong came over: "I finally found you, Mr. Shang, can I trouble you to move to the lounge at the back, my teacher wants to have a private talk with you."

Yu Zhengdu still respected Mr. Wang Gezhi, and guessed in his heart that the Gou family's "You Song Feng Ge" was a fake, which probably hit him hard, so he gave Shang Que a hand: "Go talk about it?"

Shang Que never cared about what ordinary people think, but when Yu Zhengdu opened his mouth, he didn't refuse, said "Mmm", and followed Shen Wenrong to the back lounge.

The privacy of high-end clubs is well done. Although there are many guests, ordinary people cannot enter the lounge area without the consent of the organizer.

Under the leadership of Shen Wenrong, Yu Zhengdu and Shang Que entered the corridor of the lounge, and the surrounding environment became much cleaner.

"Here..." Shen Wenrong stopped outside a rest room, and was about to open the door when suddenly the door of the next rest room was suddenly opened, and Hook Shiwang pulled Wang Gezhi out: "Master, I'm really sorry, please come out now." leave please?"

Wang Gezhi pointed at him: "You bastard, you, do you think I don't know what you and Menghua are up to?"

"Since you know, you should know that I did this for the sake of the Gou family." Gou Shi Wang said coldly, "Speaking of which, I should really blame you, if it wasn't for Shishu, you and your student, I don't know where to invite you." I don’t have to go to this point if a low-profile Internet celebrity ruins my Gou family’s "You Song Feng Ge" all at once."

"The real can't be fake, and the fake can't be real. This is the basic ethics of our research and appraisal." Wang Gezhi said pantingly, "If the brother is still alive, he will agree with my approach."

"Got it, got it." Gou Shiwang said impatiently, "I won't interfere with your conduct, so please don't interfere with me either?"

Wang Gezhi: "I must not stand by and watch you use the reputation accumulated by the Gou family to do evil?"

The quarrel between the two became more and more intense. Shen Wenrong felt that something was wrong, and quickly stepped forward to help the old man: "Teacher, are you okay?"

Yu Zhengdu and Shang Que looked at each other and followed.

"I, I..." Wang Gezhi pressed his chest, unable to speak coherently.

"You came just in time, take your teacher away quickly, don't delay our business." Gou Shiwang was used to bossing around, and he didn't pretend to be polite to Shen Wenrong.

"I'm not leaving!" Wang Gezhi finally came to his senses, and stopped abruptly, "I want to see, what else can you do?!"

"Why bother, uncle, you can't stop me." No one else was around, Gou Shiwang's attitude became more and more rude, "Don't get angry at yourself when the time comes."

As he was talking, he saw Yu Zhengdu and Shang Que following him, and his expression changed suddenly: "What are you two doing here? Hurry up and leave."

"No, no, don't say that, Mr. Shang is also our distinguished guest." Liu Ao, who had been standing at the entrance of the lounge and had been watching coldly, immediately put on a smooth smile and greeted him, "Come in and sit, just in time for Shang Let me see the strength of our Menghua Auction House."

Gou Shi looked at Liu Ao's posture and understood what was going on. Just now Zhan Wei came back angrily and scolded Shang Que, but apparently Liu Ao hadn't given up on Shang Que's painting "You Song Feng Ge" .

Liu Ao's approach is easy to understand. Although the two "You Song Feng Ge" are still controversial, it is obvious that Shang Que's one has a higher degree of recognition. In fact, they themselves don't understand the possibility that the one in Shang Que's hand is real. It must be much bigger, otherwise Zhan Wei would not have offered [-] million yuan to try it out, but he was unwilling to let go until the last moment.

Taking a step back, even if no conclusion can be reached in the end, if Menghua can also get the painting of Shang Que, then it doesn't matter which one is true and which is false. The auction of the two paintings together will definitely make history.

Gou Shiwang is naturally unwilling, but he and Menghua are already a community of interests, no matter how reluctant they are, they can only swallow this breath, and sneer: "Then let's experience it together."

Yu Zhengdu didn't know why, but he guessed that this group of people was on the verge of failure, and they would definitely not let it go. Seeing that Mr. Wang refused to leave, he was afraid that something might happen to him, so he smiled calmly, and pulled Shang Que Shi Shiran in: " Let's see then."

The lounge next door is huge, with huge floor-to-ceiling windows. It is obviously a place only for VIPs, and the people sitting in it are indeed VIPs.

In addition to Gou Shiwang, Liu Ao and Zhan Wei were also inside, as well as experts from the appraisal team and a few people who looked dignified, and the only two official media outlets today were also there.

"Everyone, you don't mind a new distinguished guest, right?" Liu Ao said.

The people inside were originally a little displeased because of the sudden arrival, but when they saw that the visitor was the holder of "You Song Feng Ge", their dissatisfaction dissipated.

One of them clapped his hands: "You are very welcome."

As soon as Yu Zhengdu saw this battle, he knew it. Sure enough, as soon as he and Shang Que entered the lounge, Gou Shiwang's assistant closed the door, and then the staff next to him opened an escort safe, and took out an elegant and exquisite wooden box from inside Come.

Gou Shiwang glanced at Shang Que bitterly, then turned to those distinguished guests and the two official media, and said with a smile: "Everyone, our Gou family is very optimistic about the strength of Menghua Auction House, and we are very optimistic about their performance. Professionalism is also reported with high trust..."

He paused for a while, and made an understatement: "As we all know, in addition to "You Song Feng Ge", our Gou family also has many ancient relics from the Song Dynasty. To be honest, after a comprehensive inspection of Menghua Auction House, I It has been decided to hand over other treasures from the Gou family's collection to Menghua's agent."

As soon as these words came out, Yu Zhengdu finally understood why Wang Gezhi became so angry, and it was not only "You Song Feng Ge" that was going to be auctioned.

But what they don't know is that Gou Shiwang is actually forced to do nothing.

It turned out that he and Liu Ao's plan did not intend to use other collections of the Gou family so quickly, but to open the situation with the rare ancient painting "You Song Feng Ge" and establish the status of Menghua Auction House in one fell swoop, and then cooperate with other collectors to The market is controlled in their hands, and when the time comes, the entire market price will be decided by them. These collections of their home are truly worth a hundred times their worth and priceless.

It's just that they have calculated thousands of times, but unexpectedly, they stumbled in the most foolproof "You Song Feng Ge", let alone becoming famous in one fell swoop, they almost ruined the reputation of Menghua and the Gou family in one fell swoop.

Fortunately, the expert group also said that it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity of the two paintings. It cannot be blamed for the Gou family and Menghua to regard "You Song Feng Ge" as the real thing, otherwise there is really no way to recover. For the current plan, other collections of the Gou family can only be used in advance , in an attempt to turn the tide.

This time Gou Shiwang and Liu Ao were much more cautious. They only invited a few distinguished guests and two official media to the lounge, planning to give them a private appreciation first, and then spend money to invite other media to follow. Unexpectedly, he happened to be bumped into by Mr. Wang, and a little trouble arose.

Fortunately, I am not afraid of looking at the Gou family this time. The Gou family is a real aristocratic family. The collection of song products in China can be compared with the Gou family. It definitely does not include this Internet celebrity blogger, "You Song Feng Ge" It was just an accident, but he wanted to let Shang Que see what the real background of everyone is.

In the expectant eyes of everyone, Gou Shiwang put on his gloves and carefully took out a small tray covered with brocade from the box: "Everyone should know that Jingkang Tongbao is one of the fifty treasures of ancient coins. There are less than [-] Jingkang Tongbao Xiaoping coins, and our Gou family has a pair of Xiaoping coins.”

On the small tray, there are two ancient coins.

The few guests at the scene were either big collectors or wealthy businessmen who spent a lot of money on this game. They were all knowledgeable, so when they heard Gou Shiwang's words, they all lifted their spirits, and some unconsciously let out low voices.

Yu Zhengdu didn't understand this, so he had to go to see Shang Que, and Shang Que immediately looked at Shen Wenrong.

Shen Wenrong explained to them in a low voice knowingly.

The so-called Fifty Treasures of Ancient Coins refer to [-] kinds of extremely precious coins that appeared in the history of China. Many of these coins have been lost or there is only one coin. Its value is immeasurable and has a high collection value.

Among the fifty treasures, the most types of coins issued during the Song Dynasty were the most, and the Jingkang Tongbao produced by Gou Shiwang was one of them.

Jingkang Tongbao was minted during the period of Emperor Qinzong of the Northern Song Dynasty. Since Emperor Qinzong of Song Dynasty was taken away after only [-] months in power, the circulation of coins minted under the title of Jingkang was very small, and Jingkang Tongbao is a very rare currency.

And the Xiaoping pair of money that Gou Shiwang took out is rare among the rare.

Pingqin is a small coin, which is the smallest currency unit in the copper coin era. The pair of coins are two coins with the same year name. Their size, thickness, coin material, outline, and perforation are exactly the same, only the calligraphy is different. It is called "pair money".

Jingkang Tongbao is a pair of seal script and real script.

The Gou family's pair is a rare variety in Jingkang Tongbao, a Xiaoping coin in seal script and a Xiaoping coin in real book.

Wang Gezhi scolded at the side: "Jingkang Tongbao Xiaoping coin is a first-class cultural relic, and there are only a few dozen left in the world. How can you put it up for auction?"

But the people who were invited to the lounge were all potential big clients who Menghua had done work in advance. The goal of these people was the collection of the Gou family, so how could they pay attention to Wang Gezhi's attitude.

One of the guests was looking for rare ancient coins, and he couldn't hold back at this time: "I've heard that the Gou family has a pair of Jingkang Tongbao Xiaoping coins, and I finally saw them today. It's worthwhile for me to come here."

Liu Ao laughed and said: "Mr. Liu, I told you earlier that our Menghua's strength is unquestionable. You know how rare Jingkang Tongbao Xiaoping money is. Now in the market, apart from Menghua, you can't find the first Two auction houses that can take out this..."

Mr. Liu laughed: "Not bad..."

While talking, he picked up the appreciation tools that Liu Ao had prepared in advance, and was about to move forward when Shang Que suddenly said, "Is Jingkang Tongbao very rare?"

There were not many people in the lounge. When Shang Que said, everyone heard it, and the scene was completely silent.

When Gou Shi looked at him again, he immediately became angry, and sarcastically said: "Aren't you the blogger of Song History? Why, you don't even know whether Jingkang Tongbao is rare or not?"

Shang Que fell into deep thought: "I don't know."

Gou Shiwang: "Anyway, I'm still a small internet celebrity. Don't think that holding a piece of "You Song Feng Ge" will make you powerful. I advise you to learn more about other Song Dynasty cultural relics if you have time."

He seized the opportunity to regain his position, and sneered: "However, such rare ancient coins as Jingkang Tongbao are not something you can just see if you want to know about them."

Liu Ao knew that Gou Shiwang was feeling uncomfortable, so he quickly smoothed things over: "It's all right, Mr. Shang is here today, let's meet together, if you are interested, you can cooperate with our Menghua later..."

"Not interested." Shang Que said coldly, "I have quite a lot."

As soon as these words came out, the scene fell into silence again.

Liu Ao suspected that he heard it wrong: "Mr. Shang, what did you say?"

Yu Zhengdu looked at Shang Que, wondering if he was used to it, but he was not particularly shocked, and could calmly ask the boss, "Do you have Jingkang Tongbao?"

Shang Que: "Yes."

Yu Zhengdu thought for a while about Shen Wenrong's science popularization. It is said that the Xiaoping money of the Gou family is the rarest, so he added a little gossip: "Is it the Xiaoping money?"

Shang Que thought for a moment: "It's a mess, I don't know what it is."

Shang Que's attitude made Gou Shiwang and Liu Ao feel a little relieved. Hearing what he said, it is not sure if there is really one. If there is such a rare coin as Jingkang Tongbao, if there is a real collection, who is not counting each coin? How can it be "messy" if you keep it in your collection?

Of course, even if there is a real problem, it is not a big problem. Although Jingkang Tongbao is rare, people have always collected it among the people, and Xiaoping coins are truly unique.

However, with the lessons learned from "You Song Feng Ge", Liu Ao and Gou Shiwang did not dare to be careless, Liu Ao forced himself to be calm, and said with a smile: "I wonder if Mr. Shang has brought something here, can you show it to us to appreciate together? "

Shang Que glanced at Yu Zhengdu, seeing that Yu Zhengdu also looked curious, so he nodded: "Okay."

Gou Shi looked at his eyes and stared: "You brought the ancient coins too?"

Yu Zhengdu spoke for the boss without changing his face: "Isn't this here to participate in the Song History Exchange Conference? Our boss is generous, so he just wanted to bring the things at home to communicate with everyone."

There was almost no collective facial spasm at the scene... Is this general generosity?

Liu Ao smiled: "Did Mr. Shang also deposit the ancient coins, and I will ask the staff to help you get them?"

"No, take it with you." Shang Que said, then reached into his pocket with one hand, and took out a cloth purse with a belt around the mouth that was used in ancient times. The bag looked bulging and contained a lot of coins. look.

So everyone fell into silence again, and regardless of whether the content in your bag is Jingkang Tongbao, it is also an ancient coin, right?You just put it in your pocket so casually?

Thinking about what he said to "You Song Feng Ge" before, everyone really wanted to ask: Can you have a little respect for antiques and cultural relics?

The answer is: no.

Shang Que casually threw the money bag on the table: "Look."

Although everyone was almost stunned by his behavior, Liu Ao immediately organized a team of experts to open the money bag in front of everyone, pour out a small pile of coins, and start the appraisal on the spot.

Wang Gezhi, who was so angry because of what Gou Shiwang did, also forgot his anger, took his identification tools, and joined the on-site identification.

Immediately afterwards, there were screams in the lounge.

"It's really Jingkang Tongbao, it's Xiaoping money!"

"And Da Song Tong Bao!"

"This, this is Yingyun Tongbao??"

"It's a real ancient coin... it's real, not a counterfeit."

Gou Shiwang's face became more and more ugly as the experts exclaimed.

It never occurred to him that this internet celebrity, who is not well-known in the collection circle and has no family background, has so many ancient coins from the Song and Song Dynasties in his collection, and many of them are rare varieties that are currently rare.

However, the real crit is yet to come.

Wang Gezhi suddenly made an unbelievable voice: "This is, this is - Jianguo Tongbao?!"

These words were no less than a thunderbolt, and the scene collectively exclaimed: "Jianguo Tongbao?"

Song Huizong Zhao Ji had the year name of Jianzhong Jinguo, and Jianguo Tongbao was a currency minted by combining the first and last characters of the year name. However, because the word "Jianzhong" was repeated with a certain year number of the Tang Dynasty, this coin had just been minted. It will be abolished immediately, so Jianguo Tongbao is extremely rare and is known as the first rare coin in the Northern Song Dynasty.

According to textual research, there are no more than ten Jianguo Tongbao in existence at present, and the value cannot be estimated.

"There are two Jianguo Tongbao, two!" Wang Gezhi's voice was filled with excitement.

But Gou Shiwang only felt his eyes go dark, and he looked at the two Xiaoping pairs of money from their Gou family precariously.

In front of Shang Que's pile of ancient coins, there are only six characters left on his two Xiaoping coins——

Weak, pitiful, helpless.

Due to limited time, the expert group did not identify Shang Que's coins one by one, but only identified the rarest of them, but this is enough.

Really, all true.

In front of the real rare ancient coin collectors, the aura of the Gou family no longer exists.

Several distinguished guests at the scene cast their fiery eyes on Shang Que.

Shang Que didn't pay attention to their eyes at all. Seeing that the expert team had completed the appraisal, he casually collected the coins and looked at Yu Zhengdu: "Do you want it?"

Yu Zhengdu quickly waved his hands: "No, I don't want it."

Shang Que was noncommittal, and slipped the money bag into his pocket. I don't know how his clothes were designed, but such a bag of coins didn't seem to bulge.

The audience felt angina pectoris, Wang Gezhi couldn't help but said: "Mr. Shang, take it easy, take it easy!"

Shang Que: "Oh." The action remains the same.

"Mr. Shang, this is my business card." Immediately, a collector handed the business card to Shang Que, "We will sit down and chat later when we have time."

When Yu Zhengdu saw Shang Que's appearance, he knew that he was probably too lazy to pay attention, so he hurried forward and exchanged business cards with a smile: "It's easy to say."

This person started, and other VIPs were ready to move. Liu Ao saw that the situation was not good. If these people all got along with Shang Que, their Menghua would really be out of luck. He quickly gave Gou Shiwang a look, and said to himself He laughed loudly and said: "Mr. Shang is really a real person, and he will cooperate with us Menghua a lot in the future. Let's not talk about this today. Mr. Gou also brought another collection over today, which is also of interest to everyone. Let's take a look first. This one."

Gou Shiwang brought a total of three things today. He originally planned to use "You Song Feng Ge" as the main selling point to make it Menghua's "masterpiece", and the latter two as bait. Appetite's.

Now not only was he forced to play the next two cards first, but another card was destroyed by Shang Que.

Gou Shiwang's heart was dripping with blood, this last card, no matter what, he couldn't lose again.

Liu Ao kept his eyes open, and asked Shang Que in a low voice: "Mr. Shang, do you have anything left?"

Shang Que: "No."

After Liu Ao got an affirmative answer, he scanned Shang Que's body again, making sure that he couldn't fit such a big thing on him, so he gave Gou Shi Wang a wink at ease.

Gou Shiwang breathed a sigh of relief, and carefully took out another item from the box: "This is another Song Dynasty cultural relic in our Gou family's collection: the rabbit hair black glaze cup!"

I heard the staff next to Shang Que blurt out: "My family has this!"

Everyone turned their heads and looked around.

When Liu Ao saw that it was just an employee of Shang Que, he felt certain, and said with a smile, "Little brother, how can this be the same? Your home is bought on the market, right? This one was handed down from the Song Dynasty, so it's far behind."

Yu Zhengdu also slipped his mouth in a moment of excitement and didn't pay attention. He would react and was a little embarrassing. The gift from my boss is also from the Song Dynasty."

When everyone heard that it was sent by Shang Que, their eyes widened.

A collector asked the key point: "You said... there are three in your house?"

"Yeah." Yu Zhengdu nodded, "It turned out to be a set of four, and one was broken, leaving three."

The background of the world when you look at it is completely black.

What the hell, even Shang Que's employees have three black glazed cups...

staff, three...

The author has something to say: I refer to Baidu and some auction houses for the knowledge and prices of ancient coins. There are really many types of coins in the Song Dynasty. I am dazzled by seeing them, and they are very complicated. I hope I understand correctly. Interested friends can search for ancient coins fifty treasures Kangkang.Anyway, don't take it too seriously!

Zhengdu: Follow the boss to learn to pretend!

Xiaokui: What?I'm not pretending? I'm just telling the truth...
