Shengshibaojian

Among the juniors that Qin Yue counted, the ancestor liked him the most, and it was also the ancestor who advocated sending him abroad for further studies.

Among the juniors, Qin Hao is the best at being a man, Qin Yue is the smartest, Qin Linglong is the best at doing things, Qin Qingyu is the most beautiful, and Qin Qinglei is the most deadly...

Seeing that the old ancestor revealed his love for Shen Qiu in words, Qin Yue felt unhappy, and took the initiative to put aside the topic, and took out the small gift he carefully prepared for the old lady.

The box of the small gift is not outstanding, it is just a cardboard box with an ordinary appearance: "Ancestor, I saw this thing from a booth in the United States on a business trip in the early days, and I brought it back for you. Look good, I hope you like it, old lady!"

"I like it!" The ancestor smiled happily: "Among these juniors, Qin Yue, you are the smartest! I hope you will continue to work hard and bring the advanced technology of foreign treasures back to China, and give it to Changyang of the Qin family. Adding bricks and tiles!"

Qin Yue opened the gift box with both hands, and revealed the items inside, a wood carving work, a wood carving about ten centimeters in length!A root carving of Maitreya Buddha.

"Ancestor, this is a root carving work of Maitreya Buddha. The material is huanghuali, and the carving quality is average. It is precisely because of this that I successfully picked up this leak. I know that my ancestors like the wood of huanghuali. Work, although the appearance of this treasure is ordinary, it is indeed made of authentic huanghuali material, and I also know that Tang Bohu also loved the decorations of Maitreya Buddha. There are many collections of Maitreya Buddha in the government office. The preferences of the ancestors just coincided! Hehe!"

The old ancestor felt it with his hands, nodded slightly and asked, "Qin Yue? Tell me, how much did you spend on this treasure?"

"Forty! Forty dollars!" Qin Yue's eyes lit up, and he held up four fingers: "Old Ancestor, I calculated that this treasure of mine only cost more than 300 yuan. Although Maitreya Buddha is not worth a lot of money, it is worth it." For me, it’s also a leak!”

"En..." The old ancestor answered, stood up and said, "Okay, Qin Yue, I haven't reached the point of being so old-fashioned yet, do you think I don't know that you were in Yanjing City last month? Where did you come from?" Did you go to the United States during the time? There is also this wood carving of huanghuali. As long as you are not blind in Yanjing City, you will not sell it to you by mistake. You can do some publicity when you open the door to do business, but remember it well, don’t imitate it. Lying, lying and deceiving people may bring temporary profits, but what is destroyed is the golden signboard of Qin's parents, Yangxuan! If you lose money, you can earn more, and if you lose the reputation of the signboard, you will lose everything! Do you understand what I mean? "

"..."

Qin Yue's face was filled with embarrassment immediately. Seeing the old ancestor mercilessly exposed his lies, he was even more embarrassed, so he could only admit his mistake: "Old ancestor, I was wrong, I know I was wrong, this root carving I bought it from a boutique, and it cost 500 yuan! Because I searched the entire city of Yanjing, but I couldn’t find anything worth [-] yuan...so I bought this huanghuali woodcarving out of desperation!"

The old ancestor was not angry either, and commented earnestly: "That's why you need to follow your elder brother and third sister to study further. Doing business is a science, and it can't be done with a smart brain. There is still a long way ahead of you..."

The next person who presented the gift was Qin Linglong.

What Qin Linglong presented was a pure copper ornament. The overall shape of the ornament is the outline of the Yellow Crane Tower. Although it is the shape of the Yellow Crane Tower, the overall carving is relatively rough, and the surface color of the brass is also slightly dull. , there is only a shelf left, which looks a little abrupt at first glance.

"Old ancestor, I spent 500 yuan on this treasure! The shape of the decoration is the Yellow Crane Tower, which just corresponds to Li Bai's "The Story of the Yellow Crane Tower". Although the things are not valuable, this is also a kindness of the younger generation!"

"Ok, Ok……"

The old ancestor took over the ornaments from the Yellow Crane Tower: "Although the workmanship, value, and appearance of your collection are average, it conforms to the settings I set for you. It is a qualified meeting gift with no merits or faults!"

The old ancestor still didn't forget to remind Qin Yue before: "Qin Yue! You must first learn from your third sister's pragmatism. Remember not to play with those fancy things. You have to walk step by step to be safe enough."

"Yes yes yes... old ancestor... Qin Yue knew it was wrong..."

"Hehe! You deserve it!" Qin Qinglei leaned behind Shen Qiu's back and smiled, "The arrogance just now made me really think that I was some kind of god. What kind of eyesight did my ancestors have? Back then, he was also a powerful person in the antique world. This little cleverness still counts Get confused! By the way, master! What kind of gift did you prepare for the ancestors! I think your packing box is very valuable, if I read it correctly! Your packing box is from Huarong Mansion! Huarong Mansion A set of packaging boxes will cost more than 100!"

"That's right! It is indeed a box from Huarong Mansion! Because the treasure inside is worthy of that set of expensive boxes!"

"Isn't it, master, you have removed one hundred and eight from the box, what treasure can you buy with the remaining three hundred and two? Don't be like Qin Yue, who will be taught by the ancestors instead of pretending to be coercive!"

"Be low-key and low-key, you will know when the time comes!"

The third person who took the initiative to play was Qin Hao, the eldest of the Qin family's descendants.

Qin Hao took out a pair of calligraphy and painting from his body and spread them out. It was a boxy painting with extremely simple patterns, a calligraphy and painting of a magpie flying with a plum blossom in its mouth, and the inscription on the bottom It is "Diao Mei Tu".

The strange thing is that the inscription of calligraphy and painting only includes the writing of a pair of names, and there is no specific artist's name and age.

"What does this mean?" Qin Qinglei first asked, "Brother? As far as I know, this painting of yours is neither Li Bai's calligraphy and painting, nor Tang Bohu's calligraphy and painting. In addition, the painting is old and incomplete. It's directly off topic!"

"Hehe..." Qin Hao smiled in relief, and came to Shen Qiu: "Master Shen Qiu, my younger brother's experience is not enough to see the way, so I ask you, the master, to take a look and explain it to the apprentice. Open up your doubts!"

The old ancestor also seemed to test Shen Qiu's eyesight on purpose: "Young man, since you were able to drive away the Xu family, then with your eyesight, you should be able to dissect the secrets! Those who are capable will come first! Come on!"

"Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient!"

Shen Qiu slowly came to "Picture of Plums in Diablo": "Manager Qin must have missed this treasure! This painting is indeed not related to Li Bai, but it should be able to be hung with Tang Bohu!"

"No, no!" Qin Qinglei repeatedly shook his head and argued: "Master! You can't fool me with this. Tang Bohu's calligraphy and paintings are very rare to me. There is no such piece of "Plum Diagram" in his works. Master, did you make a mistake! "

"I didn't say that this is Tang Bohu's calligraphy and painting. We all know that Tang Bohu's fame is known to everyone. Not to mention Tang Bohu's authentic work, even a high-quality imitation is also very valuable. It is impossible to buy it for 500 yuan! According to the current market situation of antiques, 500 yuan is only enough to buy a yellowed scroll from the Ming Dynasty.”

"Manager Qin took a different approach and found this calligraphy and painting. The quality of this calligraphy and painting is not good, and there are signs of damage on the edge of the scroll. In addition, it is not a famous calligraphy and painting, so the price cannot go up. 500 yuan should be able to win."

"After talking for a long time, is this painting Tang Bohu's calligraphy and painting?" Qin Yue interrupted Shen Qiu impatiently.

Shen Qiu bluntly revealed the true owner of this painting: "If I'm not mistaken, the author of this "Picture of Plum Blossoms" should be Shen Zhou!"

"Shen Zhou?"

Qin Qinglei was confused: "Master, master, wait! Who is this Shen Zhou?"
