Chapter 472

The old man turned around completely and faced Pu Jie, "What did you say? Your lines?"

"I seem to have heard it from a TV series." Pu Jie pointed his forehead with his finger.

But at this time, Yu Yao started to draw directly.

While the old man was talking, he saw Yu Yao's movements out of the corner of his eye, and immediately stopped talking to Pu Jie, and quickly stretched out his hand to press him, "Boss Yu, what are you doing?"

"It's nothing, I can't accept this painting, I'm afraid it will waste your time and prevent you from looking for other buyers." Yu Yao handed the rolled half into his hand, and then withdrew his hand.

"You said you couldn't accept it before I made an offer. Does that mean there's something wrong with the painting?" The old man's expression darkened.

"Old man, that's what you said, but I didn't say that. There are many reasons why this can't be accepted. It may not be that there is a problem, or it may be that you don't like it."

"Then what is your reason?"

Yu Yao just smiled, then walked around the counter, went to the Eight Immortals table, took a sip of water, and lit another cigarette.

What an interesting old man!In this case, what else do you ask?
Shopkeepers, what do you like or dislike?You can keep what you like, and you can sell what you don’t like. As long as it is genuine, you will ask the price if you don’t like it.

Seeing that Yu Yao was silent, the old man hesitated for a while, put away the painting first, and put it in the calligraphy and painting box, and then walked to Yu Yao's side, "Don't tell me, do you?"

"I've already said, I can't accept it."

"But you didn't say why."

"Old man, are you going to sell paintings?"

"Yes!"

"Then the result is already there. If you can't sell it here, why don't you just settle it?"

"But who told you to be Jiangzhou's first glance! If you don't accept it, I'll take it out again. If someone sees it and spreads it, saying that Geguzhai won't accept it, I will not be able to sell it! So, you You have to give me an explanation!"

At this time, Pu Jie answered, "Old man, didn't you ask me what I do? I'll tell you now that I do business with Boss Yu. Now I say a few words, will you listen?"

As soon as these words came out, not only the old man was stunned for a moment, but Yu Yao was also stunned for a moment.

Yu Yao thought to himself, in terms of antiques, Pu Jie's bronze wares are considered the strongest, and some miscellaneous items are also fine, such as porcelain and jade wares. As for calligraphy and painting, I'm afraid he hasn't even gotten into it yet!
The old man looked at Pu Jie, "Okay, I'll listen to you if you say a few words."

"I don't know how to paint, but I know Fan Kuan. The name is too big! I, who don't know how to paint, feel a little petty about your painting, so I dare not accept it."

Yu Yao listened, huh?Not to mention, there is some truth in what Pu Jie said.

This painting is a modern high imitation made of old, and the level is barely passable.As far as Yu Yao is concerned, one only needs to look closely at the silk copy, without having to identify the content of the picture, to know that the silk is old.

Of course, Yu Yao also looked at the content of the picture, the brushwork is not bad, it is estimated that the person who drew the brush may often imitate Fan Kuan's paintings.Only the details can still find the problem.On the whole, the biggest problem is really lack of tolerance.

"Why do you say so much if you don't understand painting?" The old man was very unhappy.

"Don't be angry." Yu Yao followed with a smile, "Really, old man, I am not the first person in Jiangzhou, and my level is limited, so I can't say more. But I have already told you that the result is unacceptable, let's Just go here, okay?"

After finishing speaking, Yu Yao gave Pu Jie a wink.Then, no matter what the old man said, both of them would respond with a smile on their faces, and never spoke again.

In the end, the old man had no choice but to pack up his things, take his leave and walk towards the door.

When he arrived at the door, he suddenly turned around angrily, "Look, you are really in vain! I didn't say that this painting must be authentic, but it should be a 'fake game'! Since you have no fate today, don't Just regret it."

"Thank you, old man, for your guidance. You can go." Yu Yao cupped his hands.

The old man left at last.

"Fake match is real?" Pu Jie looked at Yu Yao, "Well, I know that 'real match is fake', for example, some real things look too new. But he just said 'fake match is real', I Why haven’t I heard of it? Did he create it himself? Or is there really such a saying?”

Yu Yao waved his hand, "This old man is a typical half bottle of vinegar. He has a certain foundation of vision, but he still can't make it to the next level; many things are actually specious in his bones, but he is very confident and likes to draw conclusions!"

"Oh! That's what he made up himself?"

"Not really. This 'fake matches the real', yes, but it is not a common situation in antiques, it usually only happens in calligraphy and painting. Think about it, how likely is it that the fake can be the same as the real one?"

"Surely it doesn't mean to confuse the fake with the real?"

"Of course not. It mainly refers to fake paintings and calligraphy, which are the same as the real ones in all aspects, including value, and some even surpass the real ones!"

"How is this possible?" Pu Jie couldn't accept it for a moment.

"How is it impossible? For example, many of Song Huizong's works were actually painted by painters from the painting academy. Do you think they are fake or real? Are the fake ones worth the same as the real ones?"

"This... is true." Pu Jie scratched his head, "But it's too general, at least no specific imitators can be found, so there is no way to really make a conclusion."

Yu Yao looked at Pu Jie, "Your thirst for knowledge seems to be on the rise today!"

"Don't be useless, hurry up, and give me another specific example!"

Yu Yao thought for a while, "Let's talk about the emperor again, Qianlong, some of his calligraphy were imitated by He Shen. He Shen's imitation of Qianlong's calligraphy is excellent, but in fact, He Shen's calligraphy skills are even higher than Qianlong's. Some Heshen imitated Qianlong's characters, similar in shape, but better than Qianlong! This must be a fake, right? But it is no different from the original value. Now you understand? "

"Understood!" Pu Jie laughed loudly, "Although this old man didn't create it himself, it's far-fetched!"

"Yeah, Fan Kuan's painting, if there is a fake competition, unless the top people come to imitate him! A modern high imitation, how can it be fake?"

Pu Jie clapped his hands, "The more you talk about it, the more I understand. For example, Zhang Daqian's imitation of Shi Tao can be said to be a fake match, right?"

"Yes, this is possible!"

Pu Jie lit a cigarette, and suddenly laughed, "I said, you are the first person in Jiangzhou to be famous! I'm afraid there will be people who come to 'kick the hall' in the future?"

Yu Yao looked depressed.Pu Jie continued, "However, this title is a bit awkward. I'm not from the antique circle. When I hear it, it looks like a column reporting on-the-spot news!"

Just as he was talking, the door squeaked again, and Yu Yao subconsciously shook his hands; if there was another half bottle of jealousy who likes to argue, it would be quite enough!

Pu Jie looked at who it was, and laughed again, "You seem to be scared!"
