hiss~
Xiao Wanqing and Liu Jinyu gasped.
Oh no.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry."
While apologizing, Aina reflexively wiped the water stains on the painting with her hands, and the more she wiped, the more the stains appeared.
Everyone at the scene was stunned.
This was Shan Zhentian's masterpiece, "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix." It was destroyed in the blink of an eye. Everyone couldn't believe it.
At the same time, let's observe a moment of silence for this unfortunate beauty.
One misstep and millions.
Wang Changyue was stunned for a few seconds, then flew into a rage: "What are you doing? You've destroyed my master's paintings."
Ayi Na bent down and apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I will compensate you, I will compensate you."
Wang Changyue pressed the issue: "Can you afford the compensation? Pay 4.7 million!"
"Why are you yelling? My sister didn't mean it." Xiao Wanqing walked up and pulled Aina behind her.
"It wasn't intentional. Could it be that my painting did it on purpose? I don't want to waste my time talking to you. Tell me, what should I do?"
Ayi Na's eyes were red. She pulled Xiao Wanqing's hand, feeling wronged and anxious: "I really didn't mean it."
"Don't worry, it's okay."
There's no point in saying this now. Compensation? I absolutely can't even talk about it. I really can't afford it.
Xiao Wanqing could only endure it.
"Ahem, that's not Tang Bohu's authentic work. It's just something that Teacher Shan Zhentian painted himself. At worst, I can just paint another one for you."
"A little girl like you wants to paint a picture for me? Hahahaha... This is my master's masterpiece, 'A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix.' Do you think it's reasonable for you to paint one as compensation for me?"
Everyone was talking about it.
Shan Zhentian is a contemporary master of Chinese painting with excellent painting skills. A young girl said she wanted to paint the same picture as him. Uh... To be honest, it is undoubtedly an insult to all the painters present who admire Shan Zhentian.
A newborn calf is really not afraid of a tiger.
Xiao Wanqing protected Ayi Na, who was about to cry, and said with a stiff upper lip, "I'm just asking you if you can do it. If not, call the police and let them handle it. We won't cheat!"
Wang Changyue smiled and said, "Alright, don't say I didn't give you three little sisters a chance. If I ask you to draw, you must draw an identical one for me, down to the last hair. If you can't, even if I call the police, you have to pay the price. My master's painting starts at at least 4 million!"
Wang Changyue wasn't stupid. Who could draw an exact duplicate? Even his master, Shan Zhentian, couldn't. There are no two identical leaves in the world. Even if you could, what's the problem? You don't have to pay me? What a joke.
Wang Changyue really didn't ask for an exorbitant price.
Shan Zhentian's paintings have been highly sought after in recent years, with many of them starting at one million yuan at auction houses. Moreover, Shan Zhentian is still alive, indicating that there is huge potential for collection.
Not to mention this copy of Tang Bohu's classic work "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix".
"Don't cry, don't worry, it's okay."
Xiao Wanqing comforted Aina and walked to the desk under tremendous pressure.
actually……
Her painting skills are average.
But as the leader of the best friends, when the women in Queen Xiao's harem got into trouble, she had to stand up and protect them.
To be honest, she really didn't know what to do, and she definitely couldn't afford the compensation.
As for painting...
I definitely can’t produce a masterpiece as great as Teacher Shan Zhentian’s.
But what can we do?
Queen Xiao now has a strategy of procrastination, but also a bit of a desperate measure, and she is trying to find a solution while painting.
But...Tang Yin's "Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix"?
Headache.
I’m so afraid that my painting will end up like Zhu Zhishan’s picture of a chicken pecking at rice.
"Why don't we ask Su Ran to solve it?"
Xie Yiren pulled Xiao Wanqing. She realized that Xiao Wanqing really couldn't draw an identical picture, so she had to ask Su Ran, the rich man, to solve the problem.
Of course, this is just a possibility. After all, it's worth millions, and Su Ran may not necessarily help.
Of course Xiao Wanqing thought about looking for Su Ran, but it was a matter of several million, after all, it was related to the issue of "money". As the saying goes, talking about money hurts feelings, and if not handled properly, it might even cause the two young lovers who had just started dating to break up.
"No need for him to solve it, I, I can draw it."
Deep down, Xiao Wanqing didn't want to distort the simple friendship between her girlfriends and Su Ran by involving money.
Moreover, even if Su Ran helped to pay for the problem, how could he pay it back in the future?
Meat?
Hard to say.
Or, just bite the bullet and try to delay it a little and find a solution.
At this time, everyone gathered around.
Xiao Wanqing took a deep breath, picked up the pen, dipped it in ink, and tried hard to calm her trembling hands.
But.
A drop of ink fell from the wolf hair brush onto the rice paper and soaked it.
"Hehe, little girl, do you need me to change a new piece of rice paper for you?" Wang Changyue said sarcastically.
"I...I..." Xiao Wanqing was also panicking at this moment, her mind blank. However, looking at Ayi Na, she mustered up her courage again, "No need! Isn't it just a painting of a hundred birds paying homage to the phoenix? I'll draw it for you."
At this time, in the hall, many people who heard the news came to watch the show in three layers inside and outside.
Xiao Wanqing finally started writing.
The tip of the brush fell on the rice paper and began to move, but it was a failure. The phoenix is a divine bird with a graceful body. Xiao Wanqing could not draw that kind of fluency. Even if she copied it, the charm was the most difficult thing to control.
"Little sister, if you can't draw, don't draw. We can talk it over and just pay a reasonable price. It's pointless to keep wasting time like this."
"That's right, don't waste everyone's time. If you damage someone's painting, you should pay for it."
"Beautiful lady, you can really draw it exactly like me. I'll fry an egg for you with my palm?"
"Don't make noise~"
Xiao Wanqing roared angrily and slammed the brush heavily on the rice paper, and the surroundings immediately became quiet.
She is in great pain now.
The girlfriends group is an individual, and Queen Xiao has a very strong personality.
At this moment, he felt the frustration of not being able to protect his woman.
"Little sister, it's not that your uncle is forcing you, but you saw that your friend's recklessness ruined the painting. I gave you a chance, but you couldn't finish it. So I won't waste everyone's precious time."
“I…I…I…”
Xiao Wanqing held the brush tightly, and the chatter of the onlookers filled her ears. She finally gave up and silently and decadently put the brush down.
He looked at the tearful Aina with dejected eyes, and his voice no longer had the confidence it had before.
"How much is it? We'll find a way to raise the money to compensate..."
Xiao Wanqing said this weakly when a very familiar voice came from the entrance of the hall.
"Let me try."
