Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Lin Ran was entrusted by someone to come for appraisal today.

It's just that I haven't found an opportunity. I didn't expect Master Fang to take the initiative to give him the opportunity. Of course he wouldn't miss it.

Mr. Fang's face twitched slightly: "Brother, who are you?"

"I am an apprentice at Tianlexing in Xiajing City, studying under Zheng Xueming." Lin Ran said with his hands in hand.

Zheng Xueming's name is very loud in the literary and entertainment circles. Since the literary and entertainment circles are so large, his influence has also spread to Shuzhou.

"It turns out to be someone from Tianlexing!"

"However, he is too arrogant. He is just an apprentice. How dare he question Master Qin He?"

"I heard that people from the capital are very confident! He must be a trustworthy man!"

People in the audience started talking.

Fang Yuan was a little reluctant at first, but when he heard Lin Ran say that he was an apprentice, he shouldn't have any clues.

At least his personality couldn't be destroyed, so he put on a gentle smile: "Brothers from the capital, please come this way."

He looked very humble on the surface, but in fact he had scolded Lin Ran hundreds of times in his heart.

There is no need to delay for a while, as there is a marketing wave now, as long as everyone believes that it is genuine, the price will continue to rise.

"Before the appraisal, could you please tell me your family name?" Fang Yuan suddenly remembered that he had not asked Lin Ran's name.

He wanted to make a fool of the kid in front of him.

Lin Ran read out his name.

Although most of the people present were from the cultural and entertainment circles, it was a pity that the capital and Shuzhou were too far apart, and his influence did not reach here.

Zheng Xueming and Jiang Hua are the big guys in the industry, so they are exceptions.

There are a group of "big people" like them in every city, so it is difficult for their reputation to reach other provinces. After all, it is not convenient to transmit information now.

Lin Ran didn't care. He said directly: "Master Fang, can I start to identify the authenticity now?"

Fang Yuan clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Yes, little brother, since you doubt Master Qin He's appraisal results, you might as well take a look for yourself."

He deliberately used language traps to point the finger at Chu Fei and Qin He.

Chu Feidun didn't feel anything. Tianlexing and Shuyun Pavilion were both competitors and possibly partners.

Moreover, he admired Zheng Xueming's character very much, so he also wanted to see what his disciples could see.

Just now, Qin He told Chu Fei: "Of these seven antiques, only one is genuine, and the others are extremely finely crafted fakes."

After knowing what the genuine product was, Chu Fei did not expose it in public.

He spoke on behalf of Shuyun Pavilion. He only wanted to get the only authentic product and did not intend to take the blame for Fang Yuan.

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was in an uproar.

"Don't think it's great that Tian Lexing is the one who questioned Master Qin He!"

Qin He is Shuzhou's signature literary and play appraisal company, and of course he doesn't want to be compared by outsiders.

Lin Ran was not affected by the environment, but began to evaluate the antiques in front of him.

The antique business is mixed, and although it calls itself an auction house, it is actually no different from Panjiayuan, except that everyone can bid, instead of waiting for the buyer to put down the goods before giving it to the second person.

This kind of transaction tests your eyesight even more.

They must be convinced that what they buy is genuine before they are willing to pay a high price to buy it.

As an industry insider, Lin Ran knows better that fakes are sometimes almost identical to the real ones!

Because there is a counterfeiting expert in his workshop!

The first thing Lin Ran wanted to look at was, of course, the scroll on display.

Just as he was about to ask, Fang Yuan started laughing.

"Brother, if you have anything to ask, just say it. If you don't understand, I can give you some pointers."

As he spoke, he patted his shoulder, appearing very affectionate.

"The landscape painting in front of you is actually Shen Zhou's "New Rain in the Empty Mountains". Do you think it's strange to see the name Qinan on the back of the painting? That's his font size."

Fang Yuan was explaining on the surface, but actually showing off that he knew more than Lin Ran.

Lin Ran just smiled slightly: "Indeed, most people only know that Shen Zhou is from the Fourth Ming Family, but few people know that he is Tang Bohu's teacher."

Later, he introduced: "Shen Zhou, whose courtesy name is Qinan and whose name is Bai Shiweng. He is also known as the Master of Bamboo House. He is good at landscapes, flowers and birds, and has his own style of painting."

The girl who looked rude in the audience just now also showed a look of realization.

As one of the Four Masters of the Ming Dynasty, his works are naturally favored by collectors.

In Lin Ran's time, a calligraphy and painting he improvised was auctioned for a sky-high price of tens of millions. Moreover, his works are rare and the collection value is much higher than the market value. He is an evergreen tree in the collection world. From collectors You can tell the clues by stamping the seal.

Fang Yuan forced a smile, he didn't even know what Lin Ran said just now.

"The calligraphy and painting in front of me are free and easy, and they are obviously works in his later years." Lin Ran knelt down and looked carefully.

In the upper right corner of the scroll, there is a short poem.

When will the thatched eaves be repaired? The sound of slipping is heavy and heavy. I can only sleep when I am depressed. I am afraid of singing when I am sad.

The signature below is none other than Shen Zhou Qinan.

"This little brother really has a good eye!" Lin Ran's comment sounded to Fang Yuan as an acknowledgment that the painting was authentic.

In fact, Lin Ran only said that it was a work in his later years, and did not say that it was a work by Shen Zhou in his later years.

Because the collection value of Shen Zhou's works is extremely high, there is an endless stream of imitators.

"If it is an authentic work by Mr. Shen Zhou, then it will definitely not be a problem to sell it for 1000 yuan." Lin Ran stood up.

"Right, little brother knows the goods!" Fang Yuan gave a thumbs up.

Lin Ran took a deep breath and said, "But, there is something wrong with this painting."

Something is wrong?

Fang Yuan, who had been proud just now, suddenly became serious.

In the audience, Chu Fei and Qin He's expressions also changed slightly.

What are you talking about, kid?

Lin Ran's words were like stones thrown into the lake, causing ripples instantly!

In the audience, some people have already expressed dissatisfaction.

"Where did this brat come from? Questioning Master Fang? He actually doubted Master Qin He's appraisal?"

The atmosphere in the auction venue suddenly became more enthusiastic.

The owner of the venue saw something was wrong and said something to his subordinates. Six young men in mandarin jackets walked in from the door and prepared to take Lin Ran away.

But just then, the girl from before stood up.

"Wait a minute, do you want to keep silent? Why don't you let this brother finish his sentence?"

She mocked carelessly.

The security guard dared not speak in the face of her ridicule.

She pulled Lin Ran behind her and said, "If you don't let him speak, I will assume that you are lying. Once this matter gets out, your Tianbao Pavilion will..."

The host of the venue quickly walked out and said with a smile: "Miss Shen, I misunderstood, we are just maintaining order at the venue."

"He didn't do anything. I only saw those guys making noises." She pointed at the people in the crowd who had just deliberately provoked trouble. "The real thing is to drive them out."

"Yes..." The owner of the venue actually has no position. He is only responsible for providing the venue. As for internal transactions, he does not interfere.

Since a big shot wanted to protect Lin Ran, he was naturally happy to sell his favor!

"This little brother, no one in Tianbao Pavilion has ever dared to sell fakes." The host of the venue patted his chest and said, "You said there is something wrong with this painting. Can you give me some advice?"
