It is impossible to work in this life

Chapter 377

"Yifan!"

Lin Ruyan was really angry. Did Gu Yifan find fault on purpose because he was treated unfairly?

If that's the case, then he's too childish!

Anyway, Zhao Xinmin is an elder that Lin Ruyan respects very much, not to mention there is a cousin who loves him standing awkwardly beside him!
"Be clear, I want to hear your opinion, please give me your advice!"

Zhao Xinmin was full of anger, but still maintained the elegance of an intellectual.

His daughter Zhao Shuang and prospective son-in-law Liu Xi didn't have such good concentration, they both pointed at Gu Yifan's nose and started cursing.

"Gu Yifan, is there something mentally wrong with you, like this and that for a while, are you crazy?"

"No, it's true, it's true, it's true, you say you're ugly! If you don't come back, I'll sue you for slandering me and the person who sold me the painting!"

Gu Yifan was still so calm in the face of accusations.

He didn't care about the two furious young men, but looked at Zhao Xinmin: "Uncle Biao, you should have heard of such things as fake calligraphy and painting, right? But the method of fake calligraphy and painting is very unique!"

"you say!"

Zhao Xinmin suppressed his anger and smiled coldly.

"The painting is indeed Zheng Banqiao's painting, but his original work was cut up by a crafty counterfeiter!"

Gu Yifan pointed to the painting: "At that time, the texture of rice paper was very rough, and the pressing was not firm enough, so a painting can be divided into three pieces of paper!"

"Dad, don't listen to his nonsense. I've never heard of such a ridiculous statement. It's ridiculous!"

Zhao Shuang pushed Gu Yifan roughly and slapped him, but he easily dodged it, and slapped Liu Xi instead.

"You haven't heard of it, it just shows that you are ignorant."

Gu Yifan smiled.

"I'm ignorant? Gu Yifan, do you know that I'm a high-achieving student who graduated from Columbia University. I was hired with a full scholarship. Now I've been hired by Jiangzhou University right after I graduated, and I'm offered an annual salary."

"Does this prove that you are well-informed? A lot of knowledge, a lot of learning, can't be learned in an ivory tower!"

Gu Yifan interrupted Zhao Shuang mercilessly, rolling her eyes so angry that such an excellent resume was criticized as useless.

"Shuang'er, listen to him!"

Zhao Xinmin took a deep breath, the prehistoric beast in his body was about to be released!Zhao Shuang is not only his daughter, but also his most proud work, smart and capable, well educated!
"The first floor is naturally the top grade. Its artistic and economic value are recognized by the public. The second floor can only barely become a collection, but it is impossible to have a high price. It is an attitude of appreciation. As for the third floor"

Gu Yifan smiled and shook his head.

"You say this painting is what you call the third layer?"

Liu Xi was furious: "It's unheard of, you have the nerve to tell it grandly about something you made up?"

"Is it the third floor? It's easy to identify."

Gu Yifan turned his head and bent towards Ran Wanru: "Aunt Laobiao will fetch me a basin of water."

"Okay, okay!"

Ran Wanru was dumbfounded, but she felt that what Gu Yifan said was quite novel and reasonable, or maybe she just didn't know enough about this aspect.

When the basin of water came, Gu Yifan picked up the calligraphy and painting and threw it in, scaring everyone to scream.

"Oh my god, my god, 200 million was thrown away by you just like that, Gu Yifan, you are trying to die!"

Zhao Shuang was about to cry.

With sharp eyes and quick hands, Liu Xi grabbed the scroll of calligraphy and painting, and when he was about to lift it up, he was slapped down by Gu Yifan and fell into the water again.

"Compensation, you pay me! Lin Ruyan, what did your crazy husband do, are you blind and can't see it? 200 million, no, 300 million, no, double 400 million!"

Liu Xi was completely in a state of rampage, wishing to smash Gu Yifan's head with a punch. If Zhao Xinmin hadn't stopped him, he might have really rushed forward.

"Ruyan, this, this."

Ran Wanru was dumbfounded, and her heart was full of regrets. If she had known that Gu Yifan was going to make such a move, she would not have gone to fetch water for him even if she was killed!

"Aunt Cousin, I'll pay, I'll pay!"

Lin Ruyan was at a loss, she could only hug Ran Wanru and apologize non-stop.

"God, you actually destroyed a treasure!"

Zhao Xinmin stared at the calligraphy and painting in the water in a daze, wanting to cry without tears, then pointed at the gate fiercely, and roared, "Get out!"

He was such a noble and refined literati, he couldn't help getting angry, which shows how disgusting Gu Yifan's actions are!

"Uncle, look at this painting again."

Gu Yifan was not unhappy at all, he pointed at the basin calmly.

"Look, look, I see you big-headed ghost!"

Zhao Shuang jumped like a monkey.

"Oh, why is the basin full of ink?"

Lin Ruyan endured the great panic, glanced at it and then shouted.

"Aren't the calligraphy and paintings all made of ink? If they are soaked in water, it's no wonder they aren't black!"

Liu Xi was attracted by Lin Ruyan's beauty early in the morning, so even though she was extremely angry, she still didn't get angry with her.

"No, that painting, that painting."

Lin Ruyan was too surprised to speak.

Gu Yifan picked up the painting, only faint ink stains were left, and then the rice paper was miraculously split into two pieces!

"The ink stain below is the third layer of Zheng Banqiao's authentic product, and it's just a layer of red ink covered with paper!"

Gu Yifan shook the water on the painting: "Actually, this painting is not worthless."

"How is it possible, how is it possible!"

Liu Xi was dumbfounded.

"How much is it worth?"

Zhao Shuang was so anxious that he didn't care much. It would be good to be able to recover some losses.

"200 yuan, at least this layer of paper is from the Qianlong period."

Gu Yifan smiled and put the calligraphy and painting on the coffee table: "After drying it, take it to the antique market to have a look, maybe there are really good ones like this!"

Zhao Shuang gulped blood to his throat and passed out directly.

"Yifan, is what you said true?"

It took Lin Ruyan a long time to come back to her senses.

"Of course, this is all well-documented. Using the third layer of backing paper to make a copy, although it looks exactly the same as the original, it has no artistic value. Just imagine, you use a piece of paper to cover the Mona Lisa, So what if it looks like it?"

Gu Yifan hugged Lin Ruyan with a smile: "It's all opportunistic."

Zhao Xinmin sat down on the sofa after hearing this, sighed dejectedly, and then made a call.

"President, I'm Professor Zhao, and I want to ask you something!"

After the phone call was over, the way Zhao Xinmin looked at Gu Yifan also changed. Yes, this identification method is simple and crude, but it is effective.
