Xiao Cunyu was not interested in this "Qingming Kaiyuntu", but...
She just knew someone was interested.
"This painting is unique in the world and is the work of a master. The starting price is three thousand taels." said the shopkeeper.
"Five thousand taels!" Xiao Cunyu shouted directly.
I have money!
She looked like a wealthy woman, and the moment her voice came out, the whole room fell silent.
She smiled and said, "Please give me some space, kid. I have a brother who won the first place in the imperial examination. This thing is useless to me, but he will definitely like it. If I use it as a gift to my elders or mentors, it will definitely be the best..."
Xiao Cunyu directly carried Xiao Guantang out.
The words "Brother Jieyuan" have made the merchants on the first floor speechless.
They knew what they could find in the Lotus Pavilion. They could grab the prescriptions and precious ornaments at will, but they were reluctant to fight for the things that scholars were obsessed with...
Even if they succeed, others will say that they are greedy and have tarnished the noble spirit of literati.
The people on the second floor seemed to be weighing it as well.
Although this one is unique, it is not complete.
There are twelve copies of the Qingming Map in total, and the price of each painting varies, ranging from around one thousand taels to around six thousand taels...
But the guy who was bidding the price was probably a reckless person, and it might not be possible to snatch it from him.
"Five thousand one hundred taels." Hang Lixing said with a stiff face.
Kai Yunjing is the goal of his trip. If he can't get it, this trip will be in vain.
He had offended Mr. Lin the day before yesterday, and now everyone in the academy was mocking him, causing his reputation to plummet. He wanted to buy this Kaiyunjing painting to show his goodwill to Master Fu Lingzi...
Master Fu Lingzi's Qingming paintings were all sold in his early years.
Now that the master is old, he also feels regretful.
Even if he could find one more painting, the possibility of him becoming my disciple would be greater.
Xiao Cunyu didn't even look up, as if she didn't know who was arguing with her: "Seven thousand taels."
She looked relaxed and didn't take the money seriously at all.
She had seen the Qingming Diagram before, and more than one, but it couldn't protect a house from harm, so she had never bothered to collect them before...
Moreover, the scene in the picture is too extravagant and looks extremely prosperous, but it will decline after prosperity. This picture is not as auspicious as it seems on the surface.
Even, it's a little unlucky.
Hang Lixing was so angry at her bid that his heart trembled: "Mr. Xiao, how can you bid like that?"
Xiao Cunyu then smiled and said, "I have money, I am willing."
"..." Hang Lixing gritted his teeth, his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by someone.
"Oh~~ I see. You don't have money? Since you don't have money, why don't you give this thing to me? This thing was painted by Fu Lingzi. It should be of no use to you. After all... are you a good student? Are you famous? Are you as likable as my brother? This painting is so good, I'm just afraid that you are not worthy of it, so I'm here to share your worries." Xiao Cunyu said in a mean way.
Her third brother was a top scholar in the imperial examination.
Of course, he was just a Jieyuan, and hadn't even passed the imperial examination to become a Jinshi, so it wasn't worth mentioning, but he was still better than Hang Lixing.
The brat just now deliberately snatched her "Fengxianzhi", and she accepted it because it was reasonable to fight for it, but now... it's her turn to be reasonable.
"How dare you humiliate Brother Hang!" Master Nie said angrily.
"If you don't like the few crude words I said, just pretend you didn't hear them. You won't jump down and beat me up just because of them, will you? I'm so scared!"
