Chapter 565: Substitution



In old Beijing, there are some hotels that hang real paintings.

These paintings are still very valuable.

There were no problems until a painter moved in.

This painter is also a master.

When you see the paintings in the room, you know they are real.

He also knew that the paintings were of great value.

At first, he had no intention of stealing, he just wanted to copy the paintings.

After the painter spent a week to finish the painting.

Comparing it with the real thing, I found no flaws.

At this time, the painter began to have evil thoughts.

If I hang my own paintings there, will others be able to find them?

He hung up his paintings.

Then, the person goes to check out.

The person who was cleaning really didn't notice anything wrong with the painting.

The painter found that nothing was happening, so he started to think about the other rooms.

The paintings in each of these rooms are different.

If he were to replace the paintings in the other rooms in the same way.

Then the paintings in his hands are all real paintings.

This person came to the hotel again two days later and stayed for another seven days.

This time it was another room. This person stayed in the room all the time except when he went out to eat.

They all stayed in the house copying real paintings until they had finished copying them.

He hung up his own painting again, and it was taken away again.

In this way, he stole a total of six paintings.

In this way, he found a way to sell all the paintings that he had stolen.

I certainly won’t sell all the paintings.

He only sold one or two of the paintings to make money, which he needed to pay for accommodation and materials.

Some pigments are made from minerals, which are very expensive.

In ancient times, there were no chemical pigments, only mineral pigments, and they could only use these things to paint.

In order to achieve a realistic effect, they also used mineral pigments.

This makes the cost of painting much higher.

If a painter like him relied on selling his paintings, he would not be able to earn this much money.

He changed these paintings because he really liked them and because he was short of money.

I want to make some money this way.

Not to mention his paintings, even paintings by Bai Shi are not expensive and can be easily bought.

There is no way around it. People at this time are all worried about filling their stomachs. These things are useless and no one likes them at all.

Those who like it don’t have much money, and are even poorer.

I can't afford to buy anything I want, so it's better to save some money for food.

When people are hungry, they don’t have the mind to think about these things.

These things are for rich people to play with. The Eight Banners descendants in the past often did this.

When I have nothing to do, I take my bird for a walk or play cricket fighting.

These people have money and time.

They don't have to work, and the inheritance left by their ancestors is enough for them to spend.

As long as they don't gamble, there won't be any problems.

If you get involved in gambling, no amount of wealth will be enough to lose.

This painter stole a few paintings from this hotel and then moved to other places.

Through this method, he replaced dozens of paintings.

Among them, some were sold by him.

It was not discovered by others for a long time.

This matter was discovered accidentally by the resident who said that a fake painting was hung in the room.

Others were unwilling to do so because this was an authentic work that their boss had spent a large sum of money to buy.

And so the two of them started arguing.

Finally, the matter reached the boss's ears.

The boss was also angry. He bought all the things himself, how could he not know whether they were real or not?

He was also very angry with this customer and thought he was causing trouble.

He has poor eyesight and says his things are fake.

The boss came into the room and actually found the problem.

This painting is much newer than the one he bought.

The paintings he bought were all very old and had some marks on them.

There is nothing on this painting.

This is not right.

When he found something wrong, he went to find an expert to identify it.

The conclusion drawn is false.

He then took out the paintings from other rooms and examined them.

A fake painting of Liufu was discovered.

At this time, he knew that his painting had been replaced.

Use a fake painting to replace the real painting.

He was very curious about how the thief changed it.

The boss called the police and they investigated the matter.

This matter is also difficult to investigate and there is no clue at all.

This is a hotel and there are quite a few people staying here.

Even though staying in a hotel is not cheap at this time, there are still many people staying there.

With so many people, it would be very difficult to find the thief among them.

Even if this is difficult, we need to continue doing it.

This kind of thing would never happen in a hotel like this.

After something like this happened, the boss didn't dare keep these things in the house.

All these genuine products were replaced with fake ones.

That way, you won’t feel bad even if it’s stolen.

It's a fake thing, so no one would steal it.

Fake ones are worthless and not worth their effort at all.

As a result, after such incidents occurred, many hotels replaced the real paintings with fake ones.

They spent a lot of effort on these paintings, and spent a lot of money.

Hanging these paintings in the house will increase the value of the house, make guests feel that the money is well spent, and it can also reflect the owner's ability.

How could you get so many authentic items without any skills?

It is originally a way for the boss to show off and make others envy him.

Others are envious, and the boss's self-esteem is also satisfied.

Originally, there was nothing wrong with this matter. How could someone who could build such a good hotel not have any ability at all?

Who would have thought that such a situation would occur.

The real painting was replaced by a fake one and their painting was lost.

This was something they had not expected. Nothing like this had happened in such a long time.

Now, others no longer envy others, some just gloat over their misfortunes.

Who told you to keep the real painting in the house? You can't blame anyone for this.

They were happy that something like this happened.

In the past, they could only envy others, but now it is different. They are not envious at all, and even feel a bit like gloating.

Looking at the boss is like looking at a fool.

The boss was also stimulated and felt sorry for these paintings.

Just replace everything in the house.

If the real thing is replaced with a fake one, even the genuine ones that have not been moved will be protected.

Find a glass to protect it so that no one can easily touch it.

This way you don't have to worry about others stealing. If someone wants to steal, the noise of breaking the glass will alert others.

What's more, there are security guards patrolling constantly to ensure the safety of these things.
