Chapter 35 Five Screens

Liu Chuanqing and his wife are unwilling to accept anything. This is not a matter of hundreds of thousands. According to the current housing price, the 220-square-meter hardcover house is at least 700 million. This kind of filial piety is no longer filial piety in the traditional sense.

"Xiao Mo, listen to my parents, keep the money for yourself. I heard from my father that you missed more than [-] million yuan in the capital. Although there is a lot of money, you can't help spending it like this."

Liu Yingying also began to persuade her.

Li Mo grinned and said, "I knew you would think so. Originally, I planned to buy two sets at once. It would be nice if we lived upstairs and downstairs, but I bought it when something happened two days ago." A riverside mansion on the Bund."

Liu Chuanqing immediately sat up straight, and the Town God's Temple was close to the Bund. He knew that the housing price there was not a small amount, and it was normal for the unit price to exceed 20 per square meter.

"How much did it cost?"

"350 square meters, the price is 7000 million yuan."

The three members of the family took a deep breath. This child will only be 19 years old in two more months. He spends so much money at such a young age, isn't he a bit of a prodigal?

Liu Yingying reached out and touched his forehead and asked in a low voice, "Are you panicking about burning too much money?"

Lao Liu even slapped the coffee table and said, "For such a big matter, your parents are not around, at least you have to discuss it with me, 7000 million, what if you are cheated, you still have me in your eyes This master, do you have your mistress?"

"Old Liu, don't worry, Xiao Mo is not a fool."

Li Mo didn't expect Master's reaction to be so big, he hurriedly poured him a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Master, do you think I look like a fool? Drink some water first and listen to me?"

"You say, don't make it clear, don't call me master in the future. When your parents come back, if they know about this, they will blame me for not taking good care of you. How can I explain to them?"

Liu Chuanqing lost his temper excitedly, but when Li Mo heard this, a warm current rose in his heart, and it was still the master who was responsible for him.

"Master, do you still remember the thing I asked you the day before yesterday? There is a signature that looks like the four characters 'Will you worship the king'."

Liu Chuanqing frowned: "Is there a source for that inscription?"

"It's a big story, 'I'm not born to worship the king' is actually Niu Shihui's three words."

"Who is Niu Shihui?" Liu Chuanqing's tone softened.

"The ninth grandson of Zhu Quan, the No. 17 son of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, a painter in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. He is good at flowers and birds. You have never heard of him, but you must be very famous as his brother."

Liu Chuanqing was aroused by curiosity: "What kind of riddle are you playing, tell me who it is?"

"Bada Shanren."

Liu Chuanqing stood up in a jerk, and said eagerly: "Is he really Bada Shanren's younger brother?"

Li Mo nodded affirmatively, stretched out his five fingers and said: "I found five pairs in that mansion. I have studied it. It should be five screens [Picture of Bamboo, Stone and Solitary Bird]. And that mansion with an original price of more than 8000 million is priced at 7000 million. For sale, the whole set of Hainan rosewood furniture is worth more than 200 million. I was afraid of being pre-ordered by some predator, so I was in a hurry to start. Master, don’t worry, I will be accompanied by the lawyer Zhu from Kyoto. , and now the ownership of those five paintings belongs to me."

"Xiaomo, are Niu Shihui's paintings valuable?" Yingying didn't understand, but since she was a descendant of Ming Taizu, she should be a celebrity.

"If the five screens [Picture of Bamboo, Stone and Solitary Bird] are shot together, it will cost over [-] million." Li Mo said conservatively.

"Co-authored you to buy a suite and earned more than 1 million yuan."

Liu Yingying blinked, her face full of shock.

Then Li Mo smiled and said: "The five paintings are still hanging on the wall of the study, so I rushed to take them down today and put them in the bank safe."

"Then what are you waiting for, let's go there now." Liu Chuanqing couldn't sit still, "You child is too rash to do things, so don't talk about such important things first."

"You, you always make me worry." Liu Yingying gently nodded his head.

"Master, don't be in a hurry. I just remembered that today is the weekend on the way here, so let's wait until next Monday. Closer to home, let's talk about the house. I just want to ask Master, am I your personal disciple?"

"Of course, who dares to say that it's not me who is anxious."

"That's fine. In ancient times, between master and apprentice, that is the relationship between father and son. Even in modern times, I can be regarded as the half son of you and my wife. There is nothing wrong with buying a house to honor you."

"That's different." Liu Chuanqing shook his head.

"Besides, Yingying is getting older. Her best friend and classmate will even become a star in the future. She needs a place to stay when she goes home. Can you just think that I prepared it for Yingying?"

Liu Chuanqing and his wife looked at each other, a little hesitant, Li Mo was right, her daughter is grown up after all, if she brings a few friends back in the future, she won't even have a place to sit and eat.

"Master, Master, don't think too much about it, or I'll be really angry."

"I'll take it and treat it as my future dowry." Liu Yingying patted Li Mo's shoulder and said with a smile, "My dad doesn't treat you like a half son, it's even better than my own. "

"Honey, go shopping for vegetables, and after lunch, let's go to that mansion together to have a look."

The lunch was very rich, and Song Yuanning bought some of Li Mo's favorite dishes. While eating, Liu's father and daughter felt that they were not full of taste.

After lunch, the four of them went to the Linjiang mansion.

Liu Chuanqing's car has been driven for ten years, the exterior is well maintained, and the space is large, but the interior decoration is obviously old.

"Master, this car should also be replaced."

"The car is very good, there is no need to change it." Song Yuanning began to refuse again.

"I'm going to take a driver's license test, and this car is just for me to practice. If I get a driver's license and drive a new car, it would be a pity to accidentally bump into it."

"This"

"Let's do what Xiaomo says. We used to think about enjoying the blessings of daughters in the future, but now we should enjoy the blessings of apprentices first. We will not waste this life."

"Dad, in the future I will also be filial to you. I can't afford a house and a car, but there will be plenty of cigarettes and alcohol."

Liu Yingying was sitting next to Li Mo, and while she was talking with a smile, she stretched out her hand to ruthlessly grab and twist his thigh.

Li Mo's face suddenly changed, as if he had eaten bitter melon.

Yesterday, the story of Li Mo spending 7000 million in cash to buy a mansion has been circulated in the community, and the tight security at the gate saluted him when he saw him again.

"Brother Security, these are my parents and sister, and they will let them go when they come."

"Good Mr. Lee."

The car drove into the community smoothly, and Liu Yingying said sourly: "Mom and Dad are so sweet."

"It's convenient for you to come over anytime in the future!"

Li Mo didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this, but Yingying was taken aback for a moment, then blushed slightly and said with dodge eyes: "It's a beautiful thought."

Liu Chuanqing and Song Yuanning, who were sitting in front, looked at each other. These two children are a bit strange.

As soon as he entered the house, Liu Chuanqing yelled loudly. All he saw was Hainan rosewood. Although it is not the most expensive wood, it is better in size.There are also all kinds of porcelain, which are the most refined types of modern handicrafts.

And Liu Yingying stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked down at the scenery of the Bund with a look of intoxication.

"Master, these are gadgets. I'll take you to the study to see Niu Shihui's paintings."

Visiting the mansion is secondary, mainly those five paintings.The two walked into the study, and Li Mo carefully took them off one by one and spread them on the desk.

"Master, close your eyes."

"At first glance, this painting really looks like the four characters of 'I will not worship the king'. Fortunately, you have an extra heart, otherwise you will miss such a famous painting."

"Little Mo, let me see what a painting worth 3000 to [-] million yuan looks like." Yingying approached and took a look, "The bird painting is quite strange, a strange feeling that I can't describe."

Li Mo smiled and said: "Niu Shihui and Bada Shanren are both the tenth grandson of Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, and they lived in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties. They regarded themselves as survivors of the Ming Dynasty and were unwilling to join forces with those who took refuge in the Qing court, so they kept their names incognito." Live a life of poverty.”

"They were not only persecuted by the Qing court, but also despised those Ming officials who took refuge in the Qing court, so the painting style has obvious emotions. You think the bird is weird because it is rolling its eyes at you."

Liu Yingying was dubious and then lowered her head to take a closer look: "I'm really rolling my eyes."

"The special era and the special environment created their special painting style. Each of the five paintings by Niu Shihui has a simple composition, with only three elements: bamboo, stone, and solitary bird. But the layout is exquisite and concise, and the ink is thick and light. Xiangyi is a rare painting. Each painting alone sells for about 3000 to [-] million yuan. If it is auctioned together in the form of five screens, the total price is estimated to be even higher."

Li Mo rolled up the paintings one by one, but he hadn't figured out how to do it yet.

"Little Mo, you just leaked the Qing Dynasty Longyou worth more than 1 million yuan a while ago, and how long ago did you leak the five screens of Niu Shihui's painting [Bamboo Stone Solitary Bird Picture] worth more than 1 million yuan? Wind and rain, everyone must keep this matter a secret for the time being."
