Chapter 787 Isn't it nice to have suspense?
"Big leak?"
Tang Qi looked at Qiao Zhi strangely.
Tang Shuangshuang glanced at Qiao Zhi with disdain, "Don't talk nonsense! Uncle Fourth was inspired by you, so he bought this calligraphy and painting at a premium. You are worried that he will blame you, so he will deliberately fool us!"
Qiao Zhi was not concerned about Tang Shuangshuang's attack on him at all.
First, it is seen that Tang Shuangshuang is Tang Qi's niece. For Tang Qi's sake, she doesn't need to be as knowledgeable as her. Second, the reason why the little girl keeps attacking someone is not necessarily disgusted, but it is likely that she has a good impression and deliberately attracts her attention.
"My family's words are not worthy of confidence. I suggest that Brother Tang find an expert who studies calligraphy and paintings for identification. If this calligraphy and painting is not worth 15,000, just transfer the painting to me." Qiao Zhi said confidently.
Tang Qi was also curious about who copied this calligraphy and painting. If it was copied by a celebrity, it would take time to find the source.
Tang Qi met a boss who specialized in antiques business in calligraphy and painting near Panjiayuan, named Dai Zhongquan. He called to confirm that the other party was in the store, and Tang Qi brought a group of people to the door.
Dai Zhongquan took Tang Qi to the back house and took out a bunch of identification equipment. "The shaft of this painting has a tortoiseshell pole cover, which is a old object. This thing is definitely not a new imitation."
Dai Zhongquan's words made Qiao Zhi secretly admire him. Sure enough, there was still a gap in his vision with professionals.
Dai Zhongquan checked with a magnifying glass for a long time and said to Tang Qi: "It is still a bit troublesome to determine the author of this painting. Why not place it on my side? If you have a conclusion in a few days, you can come and get it."
Tang Qi and Dai Zhongquan are old friends. Dai Zhongquan's calligraphy and painting shop has been open for decades and has sold many famous calligraphy and painting masters. Tang Qi is not worried that he will change the prince by the cat, and Li Dai Tao Zombie.
Dai Zhongquan wrote a receipt for Tang Qi. After the appraisal is completed, Tang Qi will have to pay Dai Zhongquan's appraisal fee for whether it is a real or a fake.
Paying for knowledge is the rule.
"All right, until the end, there was no result." After leaving the Calligraphy and Painting Chai, Tang Shuangshuang pouted.
Tang Qi smiled and said, "Isn't it good to have a suspense? I believe Qiao Zhi's eyesight, this thing must have a source. By the way, Qiao Zhi might as well tell me your guess first, and then verify the appraisal conclusion with Boss Dai later."
Qiao Zhi said: "I have read a history of palace banquets. Many emperors of the Qing Dynasty like to collect imitation works by some calligraphers and painters of the Song Dynasty. At that time, there was a painter who was very famous and was known as the top scholar in painting. He was named Tang Dai. He was both Wang Jingming and Zhang Zongcang and was often recruited by Kangxi to paint in the palace. Once, Tang Dai was praised by Kangxi at that time and received a gift from the imperial chef. Tang Dai felt that the imperial chef had a very good craftsmanship, so he found the imperial chef privately to make friends with him, and later gave him an early imitation to the imperial chef as a gift."
Tang Shuangshuang said in surprise: "Does the friendship that the imperial chef and the imperial painter in the Qing Dynasty have to talk about? You are too good at making up stories."
Qiao Zhi smiled and said, "The key is that there is a detail mentioned in the unofficial history. If you look closely at the painting, you can see Yan Zi's long beard, with two or three millimeters more on the right side. As for the pattern of the sleeves, the third one has an undetectable circle pattern."
Tang Qi laughed silently, "I didn't expect you to read so carefully, and everything will be waiting for Lao Dai's appraisal results. If it was Tang Dai's work, it would be a big deal!"
Although Tang Shuangshuang is not good at actual combat, his theory is good. "At the 2017 Jiade Auction, Tang Dai's imitation Guan Tong's "Snow Picture of the Stream and Mountains" was sold for 34.5 million yuan. According to the size of this painting, it can be worth at least about 15 million yuan."
Mei Ling was stunned, "If it is true, wouldn't it be a hundred times more?"
Tang Qi waved his hand and smiled, "It's still unknown index!"
Tang Qi didn't care much about money, he enjoyed the feeling of chasing the collection.
Qiao Zhi didn't ask him for money from beginning to end, because that would make him look too vulgar.
In a nearby old restaurant, Tang Qi was the host of the restaurant and invited three people to dinner. When Tang Shuangshuang was waiting for the dishes, he held his chin and said, "I originally thought I could go to Yanying Cafeteria to have dinner."
Tang Qi smiled and said, "The price of this tavern is not cheaper than that of Yanying Cafeteria."
Tang Shuangshuang gave Tang Qi a blank look, "What I care about is the atmosphere. Recently, "Sisters Who Make Waves" are going to do activities there. I especially like Xin Yi, a super charming sister."
It turns out to be a fan of Xin Yi. Qiao Zhi smiled and said, "When the event starts, do you want to come to Qiao Gang to be a volunteer? Although you don't have a salary, you can get close to Xin Yi."
Tang Shuangshuang's eyes lit up, and the expression on her face was tense, and she said, "I'll just think about it for a while."
Qiao Zhi thought to himself that Tang Shuangshuang was a post-00s generation and liked to argue, but she was simple and did not care about her.
It is also beneficial to having such a little girl who loves to argue, and it will look quite lively.
On the table, Qiao Zhi and Tang Qi talked about antiques again. Tang Qi and Qiao Zhi's discussion attitude was much flattened. Through visiting Panjiayuan together this time, Tang Qi knew that Qiao Zhi was not a theoretical king with a false reputation.
That yellow pottery jar is not something that ordinary people can find.
There is also the painting he bought for 15,000 yuan. Tang Qi vaguely felt that Qiao Zhi's judgment was most likely correct.
...
After breaking up with Tang Qi, Qiao Zhi and Mei Ling took the same car.
Mei Ling held the golden nanmu box in her hand. Although it was not as valuable as her handbag, she couldn't let it go.
The antique industry has made many people obsessed with depravity. Many people only see the glamorous side of collectors, but not many people die because of this.
Although the yellow pottery jar today is very valuable, Qiao Zhi's mentality is very calm.
This kind of side wealth can be easily made, but in doing things, you still have to go straight to the right path, focus on your main business, and fight a protracted war.
"Your relationship with Tang Qi has brought it closer today." Mei Ling sighed.
"Yes, when people get along with each other for a long time, they become familiar with each other." Qiao Zhi said with a smile.
Mei Ling sighed, "Actually, the Yanjing circle is the most difficult to integrate into, especially Tang Qi, who was born in a compound since childhood, and is born different from others. However, he treats you differently."
Qiao Zhi said: "Tang Qi is different from other children in the big courtyard. He is a person who pursues an elegant attitude towards life. If you can be as elegant as him, he will regard you as a friend. If you are vulgar, he will stay away from you."
"Tsk tsk, I have never seen anyone praise yourself like this. You are also a person who pursues elegance?" Mei Ling rolled her eyes, "By the way, is that painting today really Tang Dai's work?"
"I don't know either. I'm not an expert, I'm just inferring." Qiao Zhi responded with his mouth.
"You, even if it's 100% of the matter, you won't make a conclusion." Mei Ling snorted.
Qiao Zhi smiled but said nothing.
Mei Ling was indeed her ribs, and he saw through them again...
Tang Qi called a taxi and asked his master to send Tang Shuangshuang back to school first, and then send himself back to his residence.
Seeing that Tang Qi was silent, Tang Shuangshuang smiled and said, "Uncle Fourth, are you still thinking about that painting?"
Tang Qi shook his head, "I am thinking about Qiao Zhi."
"Well? He is very lucky and speaks a little arrogantly." Tang Shuangshuang said with a pout.
Tang Qi said angrily: "Why is he arrogant? You keep asking for trouble for him. If it were someone else, he would have slapped the big-eared melon seeds long ago."
Tang Shuangshuang looked at Tang Qi in surprise, "Dare he dare?"
Tang Qi smiled and said, "You are so good-mouthed. You have to find someone with a good temper to marry you in the future, otherwise you have to be careful of domestic violence."
"Bah! Even if domestic violence is abused, the other party will be abused by me!" Tang Shuangshuang suddenly felt disappointed, "Oh, today you all have a harvest, I will return empty-handed."
Tang Qi smiled and said, "Who makes you absent-minded? You are always picking others' thorns. Next time I go to the antique market, I won't call you."
"By the way, I heard from Aunt Four that Qiao Zhi wants to ask you to help?" Tang Shuangshuang asked suddenly.
"It's like this. Actually, I'm moved." Tang Qi's eyes became deeper. "Working in the system all day long, although there is no pressure, I always feel that there is something missing in life."
"You are just too leisurely. However, you are a leisurely prince, why bother to seek trouble for yourself?" Tang Shuangshuang reminded.
Tang Qi was stunned when asked, "Yes, what's wrong with being leisurely?"
A villain waving a steel fork appeared in his heart and cursed stubbornly: What a bullshit!
...
The lawsuit between Lu Yi and Aimu Brokerage Company was officially opened, attracting the attention of countless people. Because public opinion was at a disadvantage in the early stage, Aimu Brokerage Company sought out of court settlement many times and issued an announcement that two company employees, Bai Hongsha and Chen Lin, had been dismissed.
But the public opinion was unyielding. Some "netizens" dug up Lin Ju who had dinner with Lu Yi that day, revealing that Lin Ju was the real mastermind behind the forced frame-up of Lu Yi.
Lin Ju has been forced to squat at home these days because he will be stared at by paparazzi as soon as he goes out.
He hated Lu Yi to death, but in this situation, he could only hide any resentment in his heart. He even hoped that Lu Yi would be safe recently, otherwise he would not be able to escape any problems.
Lin Ju's wife moved to another house yesterday.
Although his wife never cared about herself, this time it was well known that she was under great pressure from public opinion. Now friends and relatives know that her husband had an affair with a celebrity outside. The key is that she didn't get the mutton and even made her slut out.
Lin Ju sat in the study, his face dull, and the door was knocked, and he shouted and asked to come in.
"Mr. Lin, we just found some situations. Lu Yi's current lawyer comes from a company in Qiongjin. The chairman of that company and Qiao Zhi are college classmates. Lu Yi not only is Qiao Zhi's screen partner, but also jointly established a food factory!"
"This bitch! As expected, I have already had a good time. Didn't that Qiao Zhi have a family? That day, accused me of betraying my marriage. Isn't this bitch also having trouble getting involved with married men? I hate double standards the most!"
The subordinates remained silent and waited for Lin Ju to vent their anger before saying, "How should we arrange it next?"
