He's Actually A Sexy Girl? I Erected!

Chapter 175 [175] Don’t let your guard down, kid!

Qi Maocai's two apprentices were not affected by Tang Feng and continued to observe each antique slowly at their own pace.

Of course, the two of them are not puppets who don't know how to adapt.

There are too many objects on this stall, hundreds of them. If you look at them one by one, you may not be able to see them all even if it takes a week.

But the game lasted only one hour.

So both of them are responsible for their own areas of expertise.

The person who is good at calligraphy and painting seems to be named Ma Zhenping. He is responsible for carefully selecting calligraphy and painting.

Another person named Zhao Xingbo, who was good at porcelain appraisal, was responsible for selecting porcelain.

The two had a clear division of labor, and the progress was indeed much faster.

It took about forty minutes to each select an antique.

Then we go to choose jade together.

It wasn't until the last second before the one-hour time limit ended that the two finally determined their goal.

The onlookers could not help but nod in admiration when they saw the methodical and tacit cooperation between the two.

"Look at how well the two of them work together? They are also calm and collected, and they already have the demeanor of everyone."

"Yes, Master Qi has taught two good apprentices. It seems that he has a successor."

"On the contrary, the apprentice taught by Master Zhang only knows how to sensationalize, and is not reliable at first glance."

"Well, I guess Master Zhang was too ill and sought medical treatment. He was afraid that he would lose his inheritance, so he just found an apprentice."

"Master Zhang's reputation will probably be ruined in the hands of his apprentice..."

In the end, the painting chosen by Ma and Zhao cost 75,000, the ceramic bowl cost 61,000, and the jade ring they finally selected cost 32,000.

The total cost was 168,000 yuan, far exceeding Tang Feng's 58,000 yuan.

Because this competition is about income ratio, if they want to win, they can only hope that the value of the antiques they select exceeds that of Tang Feng.

Zhang Jicheng saw that both parties had finished selecting, and then turned to look at Qi Maocai, "Master Qi, let's comment on each other first. You will comment on my apprentice's items, and I will comment on your apprentice's items, and finally we will synthesize our opinions. If If we have any differences, how about we ask the colleagues at the scene to help us?”

"Just follow what Master Zhang said."

Qi Maocai did not raise any objection, but acted magnanimously.

He has great confidence in his two apprentices.

He will definitely win this game.

The two of them did not continue to chat, and went separately to check.

"Master Qi, please give me some advice."

Tang Feng saw Qi Maocai walking towards him and took the initiative to say hello.

Although he was saying hello, he didn't move his butt off the chair, which was a bit rude.

Qi Maocai snorted coldly and ignored him.

He just turned around and walked to the three antiques he selected. He first picked up the painting and glanced at it casually.

Because Tang Feng didn't take too long to select this painting, so it looked like he was confused.

So Qi Maocai didn't pay much attention to it and just planned to put it down after just one glance.

But when his eyes fell on this painting, his expression was suddenly shocked.

"This...this is..."

This is a portrait, and the age of it can be seen from the paper used.

The painting shows a woman holding a guqin under her arm.

In the upper right corner, there is a line of inscription, "Lan Shirendi wrote the portrait of Erqiao, and Ding Chouqiu lived in Lian, the old man across the mountain."

The so-called "Er Qiao" is not the Er Qiao from Jiangdong in the late Han Dynasty.

But Zhang Qiao, a female poet in the late Ming Dynasty, also known as Qiao Jing and Er Qiao, was a very legendary woman.

Although he only lived 19 years old, he left behind more than 130 elegant and graceful poems.

What is even more touching is her love story.

Born in a brothel, she fell in love with Peng Mengyang and agreed to marry her.

It's a pity that he suddenly fell seriously ill and died soon.

But Peng Mengyang values ​​​​love and justice, but insists on helping her redeem her life.

After her death, celebrities, eminent monks and ladies from Southern Guangdong City came out to plant flowers and burn poems in her grave.

A total of 762 flowers were planted on this day, surrounding her grave, also known as the "Flower Tomb."

Many people in later generations painted portraits of her in memory of her.

A few years ago, a portrait of her was auctioned at an auction in Yangcheng.

That painting was painted by Tan Yueshe, a female painter from the Republic of China. The final auction price was 1.38 million.

"Ju Lian..."

When Qi Maocai saw this name, he was secretly surprised.

This Ju Lian may not be well-known in the antique circles across the country.

But in the southern Guangdong antique circle, its reputation is not small.

Because this Ju Lian was from Yangcheng, southern Guangdong, and a painter in the late Qing Dynasty.

Gao Jianfu and Chen Shuren, the founders of the Lingnan School of Painting, were both his disciples.

If this painting is truly an authentic work by Ju Lian, it would be worth at least two million.

Qi Maocai glanced at Tang Feng, but there was no clue on his face.

This guy actually knows about Ju Lian?

Regardless of whether the painting is authentic or not, this insight is commendable.

He put aside these distracting thoughts and began to identify the authenticity of the painting.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, the more you look at it, the more frightened you become.

No matter in terms of paper, decoration, inscription, seal, or style, there is nothing wrong with this painting.

Is it an authentic work?

He suddenly felt panicked.

If this painting is true, then the situation for my two apprentices may be in danger.

He refused to give up and continued to check every detail, trying to find a place that could be falsified.

But five minutes passed.

Ten minutes passed.

Twenty minutes passed...

He was already sweating profusely, but he couldn't find any doubts.

Facts have proved that this painting is indeed an authentic work by Ju Lian!

When he looked at Tang Feng again, his eyes were different.

This guy just chose this painting without looking at it carefully. How could he choose such a masterpiece all at once?

Was it a mistake, or was he confident?

Just when he was frightened, Zhang Jicheng also stood up with a dark face.

He was just in charge of checking the painting that Ma Zhenping picked, which was a landscape painting by contemporary painter Xie Zhiliu.

It is definitely authentic.

The estimated value is around 600,000.

This painting cost 75,000 when I bought it, which is a full eight times the amount.

Qi Maocai, the apprentice, indeed has two skills.

He couldn't help but began to worry secretly for his apprentice.

Xiaofeng, Xiaofeng, you kid must not let your guard down!

Otherwise, my reputation as a teacher will be completely lost.
