Chapter 20 Was I fooled?
"Mr. Zhang Shi's paintings combine the characteristics of meticulous and freehand brushwork, and are neat and elegant. However, this painting has soft lines, and although it is detailed, it lacks artistic conception."
She spoke so convincingly that everyone's laughter stopped and they stopped wanting to watch the fun.
Chen Chang looked more carefully, and somehow he did notice something was wrong.
Just like what this young friend said, it is too formal and lacks the free and easy aura of a master.
Seeing the fish he had finally hooked was about to escape, the stall owner glared: "Who sent you to mess up the place? You've made such a good painting worthless!"
"Let me ask you, where are you from? Why do you expect everyone to believe your nonsense?"
Background? Telling you would scare you to death.
Su Yunwan answered in her heart, but of course, she couldn't say this out loud.
The stall owner saw her momentary hesitation, which became evidence of her guilty conscience:
"Little girl, this is no joke. I'm still waiting for money to save my life."
"Look here, my family heirloom, Master Zhang's bird and flower painting—800,000. Any bidders? If not, it goes to this expert!"
However, before the stall owner could finish his ultimatum, Su Yunwan interrupted him again: "Everyone, do you know why Zhang Shi's paintings are never signed?"
A confusing sentence made everyone's attention focused on her.
The Tang suit "expert" panicked and said anxiously: "What else could it be? Because he didn't write it."
The stall owner's eyes widened: "Little girl, if you make trouble again, I will call for help."
The two people's anxious and glaring looks made everyone, who were in high spirits, sense that something was wrong.
Then, Su Yunwan said, "Yes, it exists, but you just haven't discovered it."
"Teacher Zhang Shi's signature is actually hidden among the branches and leaves. If you don't believe it, you can check it out online."
An interesting point.
Everyone took out their phones to search with great interest. After a closer look, they could actually vaguely see the words "Zhang Shi" among a branch.
And it's not just one painting, it's almost every painting.
Now, everyone believed Su Yunwan's words 90%.
Look at the painting in front of you again. No matter how you look at it, you can't find the hidden signature.
Yes, even if you copy it stroke by stroke, it is very easy to overlook this little detail if you are not the original artist.
Seeing that the truth was revealed, the two men glared at Su Yunwan in panic, and even didn't want the "ancestral" painting anymore, and ran away.
Damn liar!
Everyone spat in the direction the two men fled, and when they saw Su Yunwan again, their eyes had turned into deep admiration.
"The little girl has good eyesight."
"We are shortsighted. We apologize for any offense we caused earlier."
Chen Chang even walked over to Su Yunwan and said, "Thank you for your reminder, my friend. If I had spent this much money on a fake, my friends would have laughed at me again."
Su Yunwan: Isn’t the point one million?
She shook her head and smiled, and was about to go home when the man caught up with her again.
"Please wait a moment, my friend. My name is Chen Chang. I see that you are very knowledgeable about calligraphy and painting. Can I ask you for a favor?"
Su Yunwan had nothing to do anyway, so he was idle: "Hello, Mr. Shen, what's the matter? Please tell me."
"As you know, the calligraphy and painting market is full of mixed people, and my vision is limited, so I would like to ask you to help me as an advisor."
"Of course, I'll discuss the compensation for taking up your time."
Hearing that there was a reward, Su Yunwan was reluctant: "Of course, Mr. Shen, where should we start?"
Chen Chang smiled and said, "Let's start from here. By the way, I don't know your name yet."
"My name is Su Yunwan."
With Su Yunwan by his side to give him advice, Chen Chang was like a fish in water, exploring all the trading markets.
I was even more amazed at the eyesight of the little girl in front of me.
Not only can he appreciate calligraphy and painting, jade and jadeite, but he can even talk about bronze ware.
There was no time to stop the car, and the results were great.
Su Yunwan was also amazed at Shen Chang's financial resources.
When had she ever spent money without blinking an eye?
Only now...
Alas, Su Yunwan sighed deeply.
There are so many rich people in this world, why can't there be one more like her?
"Yun Wan, what's wrong?" Hearing her sigh, Chen Chang immediately asked with concern.
"Nothing." Su Yunwan shook his head. "Old man, you bought so many things, how are you going to get back?"
"Don't worry about that, my grandson is here to pick me up."
Shen Jingmo rushed over and saw Shen Chang carrying a lot of bags on the roadside. He was silent for two seconds in a rare moment.
I looked around and confirmed the location again.
Yes, it’s the antique trading market.
Not a wholesale market.
He also kidnapped a little girl from somewhere and made her work as a porter.
Chen Chang bought so many things and it was getting late, so he had to be on guard. Su Yunwan waited with him on the roadside.
Suddenly, a brand new car with a luxurious luster stopped in front of them.
The car door opened, and a straight, long leg wrapped in suit pants slowly stepped out.
Then, a slender figure in a sophisticated suit walked out of the car.
His features were as deep as those of ancient Greek sculptures.
But he had no expression and his temperament was very cold.
His eyes swept over her indifferently, then fell on Shen Chang.
"grandfather."
Chen Chang responded indifferently and introduced him: "This is Miss Su Yunwan Su. Thanks to her, I was able to buy so many good things today."
When he turned around and looked at Su Yunwan again, the corners of his mouth were grinning.
"Yun Wan, this is my good-for-nothing grandson, Chen Jingmo."
Su Yunwan smiled and greeted him.
After Shen Jingmo nodded in greeting, he bent down and put the "treasure" his grandfather bought into the trunk.
Then, he reached out to grab what was in Su Yunwan's hand.
Su Yunwan was startled and quickly put the things behind her back, staring at him with wide eyes.
Shen Jingmo saw his own reflection and a long list of accusations in her big eyes.
"What are you doing? That's their own thing." Shen Chang said in real time.
Shen Jingmo was slightly embarrassed for a second, twisting his slightly cold fingertips: "Sorry, I was abrupt."
Never mind, it wasn't intentional.
Su Yunwan forgave him because he was handsome.
She shook her head and was about to say goodbye when Chen Chang called her again: "Yun Wan, thank you for helping me today. It's so late, shall we give you a ride?"
Su Yunwan subconsciously glanced at the man in front of her who was emitting cold air.
Chen Chang saw this and pushed his grandson impatiently.
What are you still doing here?
He looks like an ice sculpture all day long, not afraid of scaring the little girl.
"Don't worry about him. He does nothing all day and his brain is broken. He needs to move more to avoid Alzheimer's disease."
Shen Jingmo, who had just finished a multinational meeting and rushed to pick someone up but was despised, said: ...
Hearing this, Su Yunwan no longer refused. Just as she was about to get on the bus, she caught a glimpse of a stall owner pushing a cart slowly walking by.
My eyes suddenly brightened several degrees.
