Chapter 8 The Ghost in the Painting

"Huh," Fourth Uncle let out a long sigh of relief, and slowly lay back on the reclining chair while sitting upright.

"Xiao An, if there is such an eye-opening thing in the future, don't let the fourth uncle see it. The fourth uncle has a bad heart. Fortunately, it is an iron object. It is fine to drop it twice. If it is porcelain, can it be Let people get to know each other a long time!"

"Um, it wasn't like this when I fell yesterday, it..."

But before Su An could finish speaking, the store door was pushed open by someone outside, and a group of middle-aged couples saw Su An and Fourth Uncle and walked in.

Seeing this, Su An put away the judge's pen on the low table, stepped forward and asked, "Hello, I don't know if you two want to buy something, or do you have any old things to sell?" However, Su An's gaze was on the package that the two of them were carrying.

"We have a painting here, I want you two to see if it's worth it!" The woman in the middle-aged couple stepped forward and said, but the man who was supposed to be the head of the house stood there without saying a word.

It is obvious that this pair is a woman who is in charge of the house.

The fourth uncle couldn't help being excited when he heard Blessed Painting, he got up on the recliner and said, "In that case, please take out the painting, both of you, so that I can keep my eyes open."

After the two looked at each other, the man opened his package, took out a scroll, and handed it over.

But neither Su An nor the fourth uncle picked it up. One must know that antiques were not picked up casually. The defense was to pick them up and give them away. If one of them deliberately let go and dropped them on the ground, it would be difficult. After all, gold has a price, but antiques are priceless.

"Brother, just put this scroll on the table," Fourth Uncle said, pointing to the table next to him.

"Oh, oh, good," the middle-aged man put the scroll on the table beside him after hearing it.

The fourth uncle stepped forward, first looked at the scroll, even leaned forward to smell it, and then stretched out his hand to slowly open the scroll.

This painting is not particularly large, forty centimeters high and twenty centimeters wide, it is a picture of a lady,

"Yellow Luo silver mud skirt, five halo Luo silver mud shirt, single silk Luo red ground silver mud collar, this is the dressing style of the Tang Dynasty, but this woman is a bit thin." The fourth uncle looked at the woman in the painting and said. .

"This, this, the boss doesn't know what you mean just now. Is this painting worth anything?" The middle-aged woman stepped forward and asked anxiously.

The fourth uncle didn't answer the woman's words directly, but turned to Su An and said, "Xiao An, take a look too."

Su An has been standing by the side, although he hasn't seen the painting yet, but after hearing what Uncle Si said, he knows that Uncle Si may think that this painting is not authentic, even if it is a scroll, the style of painting has the style of the Tang Dynasty, but the problem is Appeared in the last sentence: "This woman is a bit thin".

Hearing what Uncle Si said, Su An leaned forward, and sure enough, the paper, scroll, and painting style all belonged to the Tang Dynasty, but when Su An saw the person in the painting, the feeling of meeting a female ghost appeared again At the same time, Su An's saliva was secreted rapidly in his mouth, and Su An even swallowed a large mouthful of saliva uncontrollably.

Su An was startled, what's going on, could it be that one of the couple is a ghost?Thinking of this, Su An looked at the middle-aged couple without leaving a trace.

However, in the end it was discovered that the problem did not lie with the middle-aged couple, but with the painting.

"Little brother, is this painting worth money?" The middle-aged woman saw that Su An hadn't moved for a long time, so she couldn't help but leaned forward and asked. Although the middle-aged man also looked at Su An, he didn't say.

The fourth uncle on the side heard the words and said: "To be honest, this painting is not very valuable. If you want to sell it, I will offer 3000 yuan. If you feel that the price is not very satisfactory, you can go around again. There are several shops."

At this time, Su An is still struggling with the reaction that appeared on her body. If she can't control her drooling according to her reaction last night, then she has met a ghost, and this time the person drooling is still a painting, yes Drooling while looking at a picture of a lady, this made Su An feel very depressed.

"It's only 3000 yuan. This is a picture of a lady from the Tang Dynasty. Why can't it only be worth 3000 yuan? The boss must fool us countrymen for being ignorant," the middle-aged woman said loudly when she heard the price given by the fourth uncle. The middle-aged man cowardly pulled his wife.

"Since you know that this is a picture of a lady in the Tang Dynasty, you should also know what was popular in the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty was the only period in history where fat was considered beautiful. If you look at your painting again, the woman in the painting is thin Yes, if it is a beautiful woman now, but if it is placed in the Tang Dynasty, I am afraid that it is a famous ugly woman, which does not conform to the aesthetics of the Tang Dynasty, so your painting is only worth this price."

The woman was silent when she heard the words. She had already visited several other shops in the surrounding area, and what they said was the same. When others saw that the woman in the painting was so thin, the bosses of the other shops agreed that it was a painting. counterfeit.

At this time, Su An walked to Fourth Uncle and said softly, "Fourth Uncle, I am a little interested in this painting. If you don't like it, why don't you give it to me."

"Are you okay today, boy? The pictures of ladies in the Tang Dynasty, the thin women in the paintings are as thin as those of modern people. This is obviously a fake. Are you sure you want it?"

"I'm really interested in this painting, but it still depends on Fourth Uncle. If you want it too, I definitely can't compete with you," Su An said.

"You boy, forget it, I'm not interested in this painting, if you want to talk about it yourself," said the fourth uncle.

Hearing this, Su An smiled and cupped his hands to the fourth uncle, stood upright and said to the middle-aged woman, "This painting, the scroll, the paper, and the style of painting are undoubtedly from the Tang Dynasty, but the woman in the painting does not conform to the style of the Tang Dynasty." Aesthetics, what does this mean, I think you both know it well. In this way, I will bid 4000 yuan for this painting. If you think it is okay, I will keep it. If the price is not suitable, I will not force it. If I come back and want to sell it, my bid will be three thousand, you two should think about it."

The middle-aged woman looked at the man next to her, and without any discussion, she gritted her teeth and said, "Four thousand, it's sold."

The next handover was easy. Su An took the middle-aged woman to the nearby bank to withdraw 4000 yuan. The man stayed in the store and waited. After returning, he left the painting behind and the two disappeared outside the store.

The fourth uncle felt helpless to Su An who was staring straight at the painting: "Why do you keep staring at that broken painting, don't you regret it?"

"That's not true. I've spent all the money, so I shouldn't take a closer look," Su An said, looking back at Fourth Uncle.

Seeing that the fourth uncle was lying on the recliner and not paying attention to himself, he couldn't help but spit on his hand, and then lightly poked his fingers at the woman in the painting.

But before Su An's finger touched the painting, the woman in the painting actually moved, and hid to the side of the painting, a gleam of coldness flashed across her eyes looking at Su An.
