golden ear

Chapter 48
"Sister Bai's store is really nice, it's here!"

Wu Tianyuan was dragged by Sister Bai to look at the store, which was not far from the villa, on a commercial street.The area is more than 300 square meters, not too big, and it is sold by others.

"The area is not large, but the structure is very good, and the location is good, mainly because the rent is suitable."

Sister Bai has been looking at the store every day recently. If she wants to do it, she can do it well. The current store is slow to make money, and she is working hard by herself.With Wu Tianyuan's partnership, he will make the big head and he will make the small head. He is confident that he will be able to get back his capital within a year.

"You're a professional, so just do what you like. If 50 is not enough, you can make 100 million! I'll have a place to eat and socialize then, right?"

Sister Bai looked at Wu Tianyuan, and was very grateful in her heart. This little brother loves herself, and it's not easy for a woman.There are everyone in a small restaurant, and there are always some people with malicious intentions harassing them.Now that the restaurant is bigger, there are people to help, so it is safe and worry-free.

"Then this one! It's the most cost-effective nearby, don't worry, with your sister Bai around, you won't lose money."

Sister Bai smiled and said, "I've returned the store in the past two days and signed a contract with the new landlord, but I still need to rent a small house nearby to save myself running back and forth."

"It's not good for you to live directly with me? The house is big, and I can't live alone."

Sister Bai looked at Wu Tianyuan's clean eyes, and said with a smile: "It's still inconvenient, and it's bad for your reputation. Besides, it's even more of a problem for your parents to come to see you. I'll just find a room and a living room, don't worry."

The two of them took another look at the storefront, briefly planned the decoration and layout, and after dinner, sent Sister Bai back to check out.

In the next few days, according to Lao Yu's news, Wu Tianyuan ran around the old houses around. There were no big leaks, but a few small leaks were picked up.They are all products from the Republic of China, and they are good value for money. They are also a decoration at home.

"Have you gained anything from digging out the old house recently, kid?" Sun Lao called Wu Tianyuan to the office as soon as he arrived at the company, and chatted while drinking tea.

"There is no big leak, they are all products from the Republic of China, but they are cheap to buy, so they can be regarded as decorations."

Old Sun nodded, looked at Wu Tianyuan, and said seriously: "Recently, there is a news circulating outside, do you know?"

Wu Tianyuan was taken aback, he didn't pay attention, and asked curiously: "News? You also know that I'm a newcomer, and I don't have any channels."

"Well, I just heard that it's all about you!" Sun Lao said in a low tone: "Many people in the circle are talking about your things coming from a bad way!"

Wu Tianyuan was startled, and asked: "What do you mean? All my auction items are genuine products that have been passed down in an orderly manner, it's impossible..."

Old Sun smiled and said: "Don't be nervous, the problem is not that serious! Whether it's the stone pot or Wu Changshuo's seal, senior experts have confirmed it without a doubt. These news are all nonsense, and it is most likely that Xie's side spread rumors , Knowing that our next special session will be held soon, using despicable means."

"It is impossible for Xie's father and son to stand up again. They are not qualified to deal with Zhongzheng with bright swords and spears. They can only use some dirty methods. It's really sad."

Elder Sun shook his head and said worriedly: "That's not what I paid attention to. This time the rumors are not so simple. If it was just Mrs. Xie secretly spreading rumors, people in the circle would not take it seriously. After all, everyone knows about the conflict between our two families. But this time?"

Wu Tianyuan heard that there was something in Sun Zhongzheng's words, and he had an idea: "Is there any help from our insiders?"

Mr. Sun praised: "You are not slow to respond, yes, according to my investigation, many rumors actually came from within Zhongzheng! That's why many collectors are dubious, thinking that you were born in a commoner family, why do you have hundreds of dollars in your hands? Thousands of treasures?"

Wu Tianyuan smiled lightly: "It's not just curiosity, is it? I guess it's more of envy, jealousy and hatred!"

"No matter what the reason is, our pedestrians have complicated hearts and like to think about people. This time their methods are good. The more vague they are, the easier it is for people to believe."

Elder Sun analyzed: "The first thing they target is you, and the second is Zhongzheng Auction. If Xie, I understand, after all, he is a sworn enemy. Seeing the rise of Zhongzheng, Xie Rongcheng will not be reconciled. What makes me sad is the insiders. Even if I have any personal grievances with you, using the company to retaliate is already my bottom line!"

Wu Tianyuan looked at Sun Zhongzheng's gloomy face and could understand his feelings. Betrayal by his own people was the most unacceptable.In particular, Sun Zhongzheng has always thought that he is good to his employees, regardless of salary and benefits. As a result, the backyard took the lead in the fire at the critical moment.

"I know who it is just thinking about it! The first one in the identification department is Li Yang, that pervert is a beast in clothes, he is absolutely indispensable!"

Elder Sun was stunned for a moment, and asked Wu Tianyuan why, and when he knew Li Yang's indecent behavior, he cursed: "What a scum, I tolerate his behavior again and again for the sake of his teacher, I didn't expect it!"

"There is also that Li Hongfei, who is not in the right mind. I'm sure he was tricky in the last interview! But I can't tell if he will participate this time!"

Wu Tianyuan looked at Sun Zhongzheng's increasingly livid face, and his heart sank, and he told the whole story about Liu Ming's instigation of him to do false things last time. Anyway, it's better to tell now.

"Okay, okay! It seems that there are a lot of tricks under my nose?" Sun Zhongzheng said angrily: "Sun Yuyao also told me something about the situation, I still doubt it, Liu Ming is an old relationship of more than ten years, the company has developed to the present He also contributed a lot. When the water is clear, there will be no fish. I originally wanted to turn a blind eye to this kind of thing, but I didn't expect it to be pampering!"

"Mr. Sun, don't be angry, the company is big, and there are everyone. Besides, we are just guessing, there is no real evidence. Anyway, Xie and I are going to die, and I will not let them go easily. All I can think of internally is them Three, the rest is up to you."

Sun Zhongzheng calmed down, nodded and said: "You just need to know about this matter. Mr. Song also called yesterday to remind me to pay more attention. The so-called shooting the first bird, Zhongzheng is indeed very high-profile during this period. Although what happened to Zhou Jie last time They were the ones who provoked the incident, but it can be regarded as a slap in the face of Xilin Printing Society, and the other party will definitely not be happy."

"Hmph, what are you afraid of? It's a mediocrity not to attract envy! They are afraid of saying that we hurt them. I have an idea about this. I will go to the capital once in a few days to do something."

Sun Zhongzheng didn't ask, Wu Tianyuan is no longer a simple employee, but a partner.He can hold up half a special session by himself, and no one in the company can match this method except himself.What's more, people's things are picked up by themselves, and they have such a vision in their 20s, and their future prospects are limitless.

"You are busy with your work, no matter what you do, I will support you!"

Wu Tianyuan nodded, he respected Sun Zhongzheng very much, he is also his first nobleman, Zhongzheng is good, he has long been a partner in the same boat.

"You know everything? What do I need to do next?"

Sun Yuyao found Wu Tianyuan immediately, feeling a little worried, to see if she needed help.

"It's a small matter, I'm going to the capital tomorrow, and I just happen to be doing something, don't worry, this little trick is nothing at all!"

Seeing Wu Tianyuan's relaxed face, Sun Yuyao didn't know why, but he always gave people a sense of security, as if as long as he was around, any problem could be easily solved.

"Excuse me, is Mr. Zhang Xincheng at home?"

The next day, Wu Tianyuan took the first high-speed train and arrived in the capital at [-]:[-] in the morning. According to the address he entrusted, he found Mr. Zhang Xincheng, the son of Zhang Daqian and also a painter.

"you are?"

Zhang Xincheng, in his 50s, just got home from work. As the youngest son of Zhang Daqian, he also became a painter under his influence, embarking on the same artistic path as his father.Now he is a member of China Artists Association, and he is a senior painter.

"Mr. Zhang, my name is Wu Tianyuan, and I am the appraiser of Zhongzheng Auction House in Zhongyuan. This time, I have brought six works of Mr. Daqian. I would like you to have a look at them."

Zhang Xincheng nodded, and invited Wu Tianyuan to come in. As a descendant of Zhang Daqian, he was used to people often relying on his connections to verify the authenticity.

"Here are six works in my hand, please take a look."

Zhang Xincheng looked at all the paintings carefully, and quickly confirmed: "Yes, they are all authentic works of my father! In particular, this picture of the flying maid is a masterpiece made by him in 1948 after three years of facing the wall in Dunhuang. It's rare."

"My grandfather said the same thing. He has always treasured Mr. Daqian's paintings. He said that seeing things and thinking about others can remind us of the friendship of friends."

Zhang Xincheng was taken aback, and asked curiously: "I don't know what the name of the elder of my little friend is? If I can produce six authentic works of my father at once, it seems that I should be a close friend."

Wu Tianyuan smiled and said: "My grandfather's name is Wu Zhenchuan. He also did business in the sea in his early years. He met Mr. Daqian a few times. I dare not say that he is a close friend."

Zhang Xincheng said with a smile: "Then you can be regarded as an old friend. My father has made friends all over the world. The descendants of many friends are not from our circle. It is rare to meet you, a young friend. You have become an appraiser at a young age."

"Is Elder Sun in good health? We also met several times in the early years, and Lao Yu is also a friend."

The two quickly became acquainted, and the more they chatted, the more speculative they became.With the relationship of elders, Wu Tianyuan quickly entered the state.

"I heard from my grandfather that Mr. Daqian was criticized by the society when he painted this picture of the flying maid! At that time, many people accused him of destroying Dunhuang murals and destroying many cultural relics for his own sake. Until now Two years later, someone came forward to clarify and return the old man's innocence."

Zhang Xincheng nodded, and sighed: "It was two years. I remember that my old father was very troubled by this matter. I couldn't tell the pain. At that time, the rumors were very tight, so I had to stay away from my hometown. He is innocent."

"And this landscape, Mr. Zhang should have been there at the time, right?"

Wu Tianyuan pointed to a place and said with a smile: "I think this is your handwriting?"

"Huh?" Zhang Xincheng was very surprised, looked at Wu Tianyuan carefully, and said with a smile: "You have a good eye, I recognized this painting at first sight because it was my father's work that tested me! Not only here, There are also a few places where I wrote it."

"All I can see is here, yes, and here!"

Zhang Xincheng instantly looked at Wu Tianyuan with admiration, he never thought that at such a young age, his eyesight would be so vicious.I learned painting from my father since I was a child, and I only imitated Daqian brushwork until I was 45 years old, which is enough to be true.

In the past few years, I finally found my own style and characteristics, gradually stepped out of my father's shadow, and created my own path.Seeing this painting is very kind, this kid can actually see the difference with his eyesight?

The two of them chatted more and more speculatively, and it was a bit like seeing each other late. Wu Tianyuan had already prepared for lunch together, and learned a lot of inside stories through the six paintings. Zhang Xincheng firmly believed in his identity as a descendant of the Wu family.

"Mr. Zhang, I have a merciless request this time!"

Wu Tianyuan told Zhang Xincheng everything that had happened, saying that his identity had become a target for his opponents to attack Zhongzheng, insisting that his elders were impostors, and that all Daqian's authentic works came from false sources!
"Bullshit!" Zhang Xincheng said angrily, "They're all villains. I've seen this kind of people a lot! Backstabbing and hurting people, I can't see other people's abilities. I hate this kind of people the most in my life!"

Wu Tianyuan did not expect Zhang Xincheng to be so excited and indignant, probably because he has experienced many such things before.He quickly comforted him and said, "Mr. Zhang, don't be angry, take care of your health. I have two purposes for coming this time. One is to justify my elder's name! Although my grandfather is only an admirer of Mr. Daqian, after all, he has met him a few times. It’s not an exaggeration for an old man. Now he is being framed for no reason as a person who is trying to gain fame, and the future generations can’t ignore it.”

"The second is to donate some of the old man's heart to the Daqian Foundation. This is 100 million. The old man must ask me to give it to Zhang's descendants."

Zhang Xincheng quickly declined and said: "I accept the old man's wishes, but the money is absolutely not!"

Wu Tianyuan said sternly: "Mr. Zhang can't refuse. This is his lifelong wish, and he also hopes to pass on the skills of his ancestors through his own modest efforts! This is also the original intention of Mr. Daqian to establish the foundation?"

"This?" Looking at Wu Tianyuan's sincere gaze, Zhang Xincheng laughed and said, "Okay, since the old man has a heart, I will thank him for his donation on behalf of the children, and I promise that every penny will be used in practical ways to cultivate more good seedlings." !"
