Chapter 78 The old man lost his temper

Grandpa slowly took off his reading glasses, touched the frame of the painting with his hands, and said with a smile on his face: "Good painting, good painting! The good thing that opens the door is indeed a good painting by Wang Shishen."

The shop owner's eyesight is not bad, he can see that the grandfather was pushed in by Yang Jing and the old uncle, obviously, the three of them are dominated by this old man.

The shop owner bent down with a smile and said to the old man: "Grandpa, I have to say that this is what you see!" The shop owner gave the thumbs up again.

Grandpa was praised and laughed like a child.

The old uncle lowered his head and asked his grandfather, "Dad, do you like this painting?"

The old man nodded, but then he shook his head and said, "If I read this painting correctly, it should be the authentic work of Wang Shishen. I have seen many paintings about plum blossoms, but in terms of elegance and vigor, I have to count Wang Shishen. This painting Very good, I like it very much, but we can’t afford this painting. In terms of the size of this painting, it’s estimated to cost 30 now. Xiaolong, forget it, I don’t want this painting anymore, I’ve seen it I'm satisfied."

When the shop owner heard the old man's words, his face became a little ugly, and he muttered in a low voice: "Old man, this painting is worth more than 30 yuan, and this painting now costs at least 100 million yuan."

Yang Jing gave the shop owner a hand, and said in a low voice: "My grandfather had a craniotomy seven years ago, and he basically can't remember anything after the operation, but he can still remember things before the operation. The price his old man said must be at least the price in 2010."

When the boss heard this, his complexion became a little better, and he said in a low voice: "The old man still suffers from this kind of disease?"

Yang Jing nodded and made a "please forgive me" expression.

The old uncle asked the shop owner, "How much is the minimum price for this painting?"

The shop owner looked at the old man, then at the painting, gritted his teeth and said, "The size of this painting is 104*48.5 cm, which is considered to be above average among Wang Shishen's paintings. If you really want to If it’s 100 million, you can take it away. If it’s lower, I won’t be able to sell it.”

This price made Yang Jing nodded slightly.Now Wang Shishen's paintings are still increasing in value relatively quickly. During the spring auction of Poly Hong Kong in 2013, there was a piece of Wang Shishen's "Camellia and Orchid", which was 88.5*29 cm in size, which was smaller than this painting. The high price of 184 million Hong Kong dollars.

At the Jiade Autumn Auction in the same year, Wang Shishen's "Aomei Tu", which was about the same size as this painting, sold for 101 million yuan.

If it is now, Wang Shishen's paintings will definitely fetch even higher prices.

Of course, that was the price at the auction, and the real price of Wang Shishen's paintings should be lower than the auction price.

Wang Shishen's painting of plum blossoms is definitely ranked among the top five masters in Chinese history. It is reasonable to say that the price of his plum paintings should be higher, but Wang Shishen has made a living selling paintings all his life. Therefore, although his paintings are recognized as good paintings in the industry, they have not been able to fetch high prices.

In all fairness, the owner of the shop now offers a price of 100 million, which is really not high. After all, this is the authentic work of Wang Shishen.

Although the old man is hard of hearing, but when he heard what the boss said, the old man was immediately unhappy.

"What? 100 million? Why are Wang Shishen's paintings so valuable now? Two months ago, I saw a copy of Wang Shishen's "Molan Picture" from an old friend. The size is much larger than this painting, but My old friend only spent 46 yuan on that painting. Boss, your price is too high."

Yang Jing and the old uncle looked at each other, both showing helpless wry smiles.Needless to say, the old man has brought the memory of seven years ago to the present again.

Fortunately, Yang Jing explained this to the store owner just now, and the store owner didn't pay attention, otherwise the old man's bargaining method, the store owner would have thrown the three of them out.

Yang Jing was really about to bargain again, but the old man suddenly lost his temper.

"No, I don't want this painting, our family can't afford this painting either! Xiaolong, push me out for a walk."

At this time, the old man was like a child who lost his temper.Old boy, old boy, once he loses his temper, he must honestly follow his wishes, otherwise the old man would dare to throw the wheelchair and walk back by himself.

The old uncle showed an apologetic smile at the shop owner, and pushed the old man out, Yang Jing was going to stay and explain to the boss.

The boss is not a fool. He knew that the old man was sick, and before Yang Jing could explain, he waved his hand with a smile and said, "I can understand this, little brother. Actually, my old man had Alzheimer's back then. It’s also like this. Forget it, let’s leave it at that.”

Yang Jing helped the boss hang up the painting again, and then said: "Boss, let's do this, I'll take a look from you again, and I'll buy one if I like it."

The boss nodded uninterestedly, pointed over there and said, "There are still a few rare books of ancient books in my collection, you can go and have a look. As for the Four Treasures of the Study, I also collected two high-quality lake brushes and two swords. Er Bajing Daqianzhi, if you have a match, I will give you a cheaper price."

Yang Jing nodded and walked over.

After looking at the Hubi collected by the store owner and the two samples of Daqian paper, Yang Jing nodded slightly.Things are indeed good things, but Yang Jing doesn't like to collect things like the Four Treasures of the Study very much. Another thing, although the items collected by the shop owner are of good quality, they are not very high in terms of collection value.

Yang Jing had no interest in collecting such things, so he moved to the few ancient books protected by the glass cabinet.

There are seven ancient books in the store owner's collection. Yang Jing looked at them and said to the store owner: "Boss, can you show me this book?"

Seeing Yang Jing take out a pair of white gloves from his pocket and put them on, the store owner hesitated for a moment, then opened the cabinet and took out the book Yang Jing was pointing to.

Carefully putting the book on the counter, the shop owner said: "Little brother, you have to be careful. Although this book is not a precious Song edition book, it is also a book from the Kangxi period. Maybe the price is not very high, but at the time I have had a hard time collecting this book."

Hearing the boss's words, Yang Jing nodded and said, "Don't worry, boss, you are all in the industry, and I understand these rules. It doesn't matter if the Song version, the Ming version or the Qing version, no matter whether they are worth money or not. Up to now, they are all treasures left by our ancestors, we can't let our ancestors down."
