Treasure Hunting Divine Eyes Chapter 941

Chapter 941 Burning Aperture

Xu Pingjun looked at Li Mo's leaving back, with mixed feelings in his heart. Eight years ago, his father always wanted to recognize him as his son-in-law. Although there are elements of joking, at least it proves that he had good eyesight and foresight back then.

Looking at his achievements now, there is no one else in the world who can be better than him. The two of them used to have opportunities within reach, but now they are no longer people from the same world. Even though they stand very close, there seems to be an insurmountable gap.

Antique Street, Gu Yunxuan specializes in selling high-quality imitation porcelain from various dynasties, and of course there are genuine products. But the highest market price of such authentic products is around one million. Li Mo selected a few as the treasures of the store. If someone really wants to buy them, they can sell them. Of course, there must be no chance to miss them.

Li Mo walked to the door of Gu Yunxuan with stewed vegetables, and heard a man's wild roar from inside.

"This painting is a treasure handed down from our ancestors. Since you damaged it, you will naturally compensate for the loss. I have consulted professionals. This painting is worth at least 600,000 yuan. If there is a good opportunity It will be even higher. Why, your Guyunxuan store is not good at bullying customers, even if you ruin my 600,000 ancestral treasure, you still want to play tricks."

Li Mo stopped at the door and didn't go in immediately.

"It's you who spouted blood. According to the rules of the antique world, one party is not allowed to fight if the other party touches it. Why did you suddenly **** the calligraphy and painting in my hand? If you say that the responsibility is naturally on your own. I have surveillance video here. Otherwise, we can call the police directly and let the police judge. If it is my responsibility, I will naturally ask our boss to come forward to do an appraisal for this calligraphy and painting. As long as it is authentic, the amount of compensation will not be less than a penny. But this If the calligraphy and painting are counterfeit, then you are extorting and extorting, and you will be held legally responsible.”

This is Zhou Yang's voice. It can be heard that he is very calm at the moment, and his words are well-founded.

"Don't think that you, Gu Yunxuan, are bullying honest people with the backing of that Li Mo. If you destroy our family's ancestral treasure, you will kill us. If you don't give us an explanation, even if you crash and die here today, we will absolutely kill you." Let it go if you are not good.”

"Yes, if you don't give us an explanation, we won't leave. If you want to work hard, then come."

The store began to become chaotic.

Li Mo pushed the door open and walked in. When the bell rang, someone looked towards the door. Zhou Yang saw the visitor clearly, and immediately greeted him respectfully, "Mr. Li, why are you here?"

"Mr. Li is here, it's really great to come." The other clerks in Gu Yunxuan's store cheered up one after another, and then looked at the men suspected of blackmail one by one with proud eyes.

Li Mo handed the stewed vegetables in his hand to Zhou Yang, and said with a smile: "Let's have dinner together in the evening, I will order some more big dishes later, and everyone will drink some draft beer."

"Oh, long live Mr. Li."

A female shop assistant in her twenties cheered and said that her belly was already high, and it seemed that she was quite pregnant.

"Mr. Li, this is my wife, you can call her Xiaoying."

"Your wife? When did you get married, and you didn't even tell me."

"We just got the marriage certificate and had a simple meal without making a fuss, so we just..." Zhou Yang scratched his head a little embarrassed, they seemed to have forgotten the few people who made trouble.

"Okay, I'll punish you three times tonight."

"No problem, I will punish myself with six cups."

Li Mo smiled and said: "Punish yourself with six cups, is that self-punishment? You are obviously greedy for cups, and you still find a high-sounding reason."

Everyone in Gu Yunxuan laughed, the tense atmosphere just now disappeared. Looking back at the five men of different ages, each of them had a look of nervousness on their faces. The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, I didn't expect to meet a real god.

jingle bell—

A few more people came in one after another. They were all the owners of nearby antique shops, and some of them were old acquaintances of Li Mo.

"Hey, Professor Li, when did you arrive?" Boss Wang, who is also in the porcelain business, got fat again, approached with a big belly, and shook hands with Li Mo, "Tell us old guys when you come back, what's going on at night?" I also want to clean up the dust for you. We also heard that someone here is going to make trouble, so we came to check the situation together. Since you are here, we will not interfere."

Li Mo waved his fists to the bosses: "Thank you for your help to Gu Yunxuan. I will be the host at noon tomorrow, and everyone will have a meal at the nearby Four Seasons Teahouse. Let's have a good chat."

"Professor Li, then we should obey orders rather than be respectful."

"Yes, yes, yes, we will have a good chat tomorrow, and you can help us hold some of the inventory in our hands."

After exchanging pleasantries, Li Mo looked at those people who were deliberately looking for trouble: "Zhou Yang, bring a bottle of water for each of you, and sit down and talk slowly if you have anything to do."

The clerk brought out the water, but he didn't look good at the five of them.

"Which of you is the leader? I just overheard your previous conversation outside the door. I think, before compensation, before verifying whether the calligraphy and paintings are real or not, we should call the police first and let the police judge the process of this matter." Who is responsible in the end, or who should bear the greater responsibility. What do you think?"

What Li Mo said was reasonable, those people didn't know how to refute it. They already had ghosts in their hearts, so looking at each other now, they already had the intention of retreating.

While they were hesitating, Li Mo looked at the calligraphy and paintings on the counter not far away, and found that they were really ancient relics from the late Ming Dynasty, but the artistic level was not very high, so Halo's reaction was not too intense. Then he glanced at the dark rectangular box next to him. There were more than a dozen clear cracks on the surface of the box. He was slightly surprised that the box used to hold the calligraphy and painting was actually an ancient relic handed down from the Tang Dynasty. What are the origins of these five people? Could it really be an ancient relic handed down from their ancestors?

However, this is not what surprised Li Mo the most. His perspective vision had penetrated the box to see the internal situation, and suddenly a red halo was transmitted from the bottom of the box, and then turned into a circle of light and spread around. Each circle of light seemed to be burning, fluctuating like flames.

All of this shows that there is still a calligraphy and painting hidden at the bottom of the wooden box, and it must be a posthumous work of a famous person in history, and it is also a very rare work.

"Mr. Li, there's no need to call the police. It's not good for your reputation if you make a fuss. In this way, you can personally identify this calligraphy and painting. If it is a fake, we will leave immediately. We will definitely not mess around here. .”

A middle-aged man in his forties with his head off showed an ugly smile.

"I won't do the appraisal with my own hands, so as not to be unfair to you. There also happen to be two owners of calligraphy and painting antique shops here, who are also experts in this field. Let them do the appraisal on their behalf. If they say it is an antique, then we will negotiate a If the price is right, how about we buy it? Then I will find a restoration expert to fix the damage."

"Okay, just according to Mr. Li, we all trust you."

"Yes, we all believe in Mr. Li's character."

The five people agreed one after another, seeing that Li Mo was not going to argue with them, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Moreover, Li Mo's suggestion is indeed fair to them, and now they can see what the appraisal result is.

"Professor Li, the two of us will do it for you."

Two antique shop owners walked to the counter, spread the torn calligraphy and painting on the countertop, and then carefully appraised it. After about ten minutes, the two looked at each other.

"If you have any conclusions, just tell me?"

"Professor Li, judging from the combination of mounting, paper, seal and content. The result of our two appraisals is that this calligraphy and painting is indeed an old thing inherited from the Ming Dynasty. But it is not inherited by a celebrity. It should be a folk one. It was done by someone who is a little good at calligraphy, and the writing is in lower case, but the strokes are still relatively weak, the momentum is not enough, and the breath is not coherent enough, so the real value is not high."

The five people all showed a hint of surprise at this time. They didn't expect that it was really an ancient relic, and it was handed down from the Ming Dynasty.

"Of course this is the expert opinion of the two of us, why don't you hold the eye, Professor Li?"

Li Mo took a sip, who smiled and waved his hands and said: "You are all veterans in this field, I believe your appraisal conclusions. Since it is an old object from the Ming Dynasty, although it is not a famous one, it has a history of hundreds of years. Everyone, You can make a new price, if it is suitable, how about I pay you immediately?"

The five people looked at each other, and then the man with the top off said tentatively: "Mr. Li, you are an expert in this field, how much do you think this calligraphy and painting are worth?"

"You will be disappointed if I make an offer."

Li Mo put down the mineral water bottle, which means that you will set the price yourself.

"We also believe in the appraisal results of the two bosses. Although it is an old object from the Ming Dynasty, it was not left by a famous artist, so we want 200,000 yuan."

After asking the price, the five of them stared nervously at Li Mo's face.

"The price is a bit inflated, but I won't bargain with you any more. There is a saying that you all keep in mind. It is best not to do this in the future. If you meet someone who is not kind, just your behavior will hurt your legs. Interruptions are light." After Li Mo finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Yang, "You write a contract, ask them to sign a monopoly, and then pay them 200,000 yuan, and the money and the goods are settled."

Zhou Yang nodded, although he was very unconvinced, but since Li Mo had ordered him so, he couldn't cause trouble for him anymore.

Soon, the five of them gathered together and laughed happily after reading the text messages on their mobile phones. Then they bowed to Li Mo and hurried away, fearing that Li Mo would regret it the next moment and ask them for a huge sum of money back.

Well, it is indeed a huge unexpected sum of money for them.

"Professor Li, that painting is only worth 50,000 to 60,000 yuan at most, and has no market value."

"That's right, these people know it's not a good story at a glance."

Li Mo got up and walked to the counter, without even looking at the calligraphy and painting, he flicked his right hand to the side, and carefully moved the black wooden box to his eyes.

Damn it, it turned out that the wooden box was a good thing. The owners of the antique shop realized that Li Mo's real goal was not the old painting at all, but the wooden box that was dark and cracked.
