He has an extraordinary hobby for painting.
It can be said that painting is his life.
Gong Yu didn't expect that Zhu Yanzhen would be so fond of painting, and that he would put aside his pride for the sake of painting, changing from his high attitude at the beginning to his low attitude now.
Although Gong Yu was somewhat disappointed that Zhu Yanzhen failed to discern the true origin of the painting, this made her even happier.
After all, with preconceived notions, no one would think of this painting as an authentic one.
But this also shows that if this painting is proven to be an authentic one, it will definitely attract ancient painting collectors from home and abroad to rush to Fengling County just to see the original.
Not only that, the media will also rush to report on it, and various business people will come to visit.
Without having to wait until that time, Gong Yu could already imagine the grand occasion.
The antique street will surely be packed with people, and her antique shop will become a well-known store both at home and abroad in one day.
Money, fame and fortune will follow.
Gong Yu envisioned the future, and the smile in her eyes grew even brighter. She carefully took the scroll from Zhu Yanzhen's hand and said helplessly, "Boss Zhu, I'm sorry, I can't tell you right now."
Gong Yu’s refusal made Zhu Yanzhen look disappointed.
But Gong Yu's next words rekindled his hope.
"However, next month, Boss Zhu will be able to find out who painted this picture," Gong Yu promised, and then continued, "At the same time, the store will reopen by then."
"What? Another month to wait?"
“If you wait until next month to open, the entire antique street will be ruined.”
"No, we have to open tomorrow at the latest."
"That's right! You guys don't lack money, but we still have to rely on the store to make a living!"
As soon as Gong Yu finished speaking, he immediately aroused the anger of other shop owners, and one after another excitedly forced Gong Yu to open a shop.
Gong Yu ignored their anger.
Her eyes darkened, and she said coldly, "The shop belongs to Uncle Zuo. It seems you have no right to ask whether it's open or not, right?"
"Hey? What do you mean? We're all shop owners in Antique Street. Don't you feel embarrassed that your closure is affecting our business?"
"What do you know, you little brat? Go get Zuo Jiangtao. We need to talk to him."
Li Shujie saw that the few people were getting more and more excited, as if they were about to rush into the store with others, so he quickly came out to smooth things over.
"Everyone, please don't be anxious. Patriarch Zuo must have his reasons for not opening the business. You guys making such a fuss won't change the facts!"
While Li Shujie was explaining to them, Gong Yu looked at Zhu Yanzhen calmly and whispered, "Boss Zhu, if you believe us, just persuade these people to leave. Next month, we will definitely restore the Antique Street to its former glory."
Among these people, only Zhu Yanzhen is reasonable.
Zhu Yanzhen never thought that Gong Yu would say this to him alone. He was shocked for a moment, but at the same time, he became more certain of his guess.
Li Shujie really obeyed the orders of this little girl.
I'm afraid it's more than that.
It is very likely that these shops were also closed by the little girl.
But where did this little girl get such great authority?
Suddenly, a bold idea emerged in Zhu Yanzhen's mind, which scared him so much that he widened his eyes and looked at Gong Yu in disbelief.
Could it be that Zuo Jiangtao handed over the shops in Antique Street to this little girl to manage?
