Chapter 732 The Big Pit
Teacher An held Li Mo's right hand and invited him into the room.Her lover Lao Jiang looked at him gratefully. After all, when their family encountered this situation, many people wanted to help them, but none of them really came out.

Unexpectedly, Li Mo would come to the door at this time, which moved the couple very much.

"Hello, Uncle Jiang."

"Just call me Old Jiang, Mr. Li, I'm really ashamed. I didn't expect us to have such a time when everyone yells and beats us. It's the kid in the family who didn't live up to it and caused such a disaster. Please sit down and I'll make you tea."

"Li Mo, the house is a bit shabby, please sit down quickly."

"Mr. An, is your son at home?"

"In the room, that kid who doesn't live up to expectations is also very frightened. I'll go and tell him to come out."

Teacher An wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, walked quickly to Beici's bedroom door, knocked and shouted: "Xiaofeng, Mr. Li Mo, associate professor of the Department of History of Peking University, is here, you come out."

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree.The door of the confined room opened, and a man with a haggard face and messy hair walked out.Li Mo had met him before, when he was still young, and in a blink of an eye he was already in college.

"Hello, Associate Professor Li."

Jiang Xiaofeng stood there a little flustered.

"Sit down and talk slowly, what's going on? I'm here today to visit Mr. Xia'an, and to settle your affairs by the way. There are rules. If you lose 800 million yuan by mistake, it's you Bad luck. If there are other reasons, I will naturally find a way to help you deal with it."

Lao Jiang made a cup of tea, using ordinary Dongtingchun.He put it lightly on the table in front of Li Mo and said, "Mr. Li, please drink tea."

"Mr. An, Mr. Jiang, you all sit down, let's discuss something together."

Lao Jiang pushed his son, and said bitterly, "What are you doing standing there, explain the matter clearly from beginning to end, and don't miss every detail."

Jiang Xiaofeng sat on a soft board silently, thought for a while before saying: "The matter started in March, because of my father, I am more interested in all kinds of antiques, and I used to accompany my father to the old street. I wandered around, found some antiques, picked up some small leaks, and made a lot of money, so I think I am a bit knowledgeable. After going to university in other places, my favorite thing is to go to the famous antique market in Kyoto. "

"One Saturday, I went to Panjiayuan to see if there was a chance to encounter old paintings in a calligraphy and painting specialty store. I was about to leave when I saw an old man in his 70s holding a rectangular box Walked in, went to the counter and asked the boss directly if he accepts old paintings. He said that what he had in his hand was an ancestral Tang Yin painting, because his son’s business failed and he urgently needed funds to fill the hole, so he had no choice but to sell the original Tang Yin painting.”

"Because I was curious at the time, I also stopped to see Tang Yin's authentic works. At that time, the owner of the calligraphy and painting shop shook his head and said he was not sure after carefully appraising it. Then the master in charge of their shop also carefully appraised it and said he was not sure."

Uncertainty means that this so-called painting by Tang Yin has a high probability of being a fake.

"At that time, I pretended to be curious and took a closer look. My first feeling was that the style really resembled Tang Yin's handwriting, but because I couldn't use it at close range, I could only take a rough look. The old man heard the boss say that he couldn't see it. Showing a very disappointed expression, he packed up the old painting and was about to leave. At this moment, the boss stopped him and asked, how much does he plan to sell this painting for? If it’s not expensive, he can save him by taking it himself.”

"The old man couldn't help expressing his gratitude. He said that he had asked experts that the market value of this authentic painting was around 2000 million. Because he was anxiously waiting for the money, he could get the authentic painting of Tang Yin as long as the boss paid half of the price. The boss heard This offer is just a shake of the head, this business can’t be done.”

"After the old man left, I was just about to catch up and ask more carefully, when I heard the boss sneaking another clerk in the store to chase him and stare at him. He was still communicating with the eye master in the store. Every sentence is saying that the painting just now is absolutely authentic by Tang Yin. As long as you get it, it will be worth 5000 to [-] million at the auction. However, people in business always think about how to get the biggest return at the smallest price, so At the beginning, I said that I was not sure, but in fact, the main purpose is to lower the price, and the price of cabbage is the best when I start.”

When Jiang Xiaofeng said this, he let out a long sigh, and continued after a while: "I was already a little confident in my eyesight, and I heard the judgment of the shop owner and the eye master, so I came up with the idea of ​​disdain to take it at all costs. At that time, I was thinking, as long as it is Tang Yin's authentic work, if you win it for 800 million, you will earn 4000 to [-] million. Fortunately, I first caught up with the old man in the alley of Panjiayuan, and then told him that I wanted it. The intention to buy needs to be carefully looked at.”

Li Mo listened to him while drinking tea.

"I've carefully identified that painting. Whether it's the paper, the concept of the picture, or the stamp, it's all in the same style as Tang Yin's. But I only have a deposit of more than 100 million yuan, and I followed my father to pick up the leaks. I made it, but I didn’t want to miss this opportunity to make a fortune, so I bargained with him, and finally the old man insisted on 800 million. Just when I was about to give up, the employee in the antique shop also found this place, and he saw We are negotiating the final price, so he didn't say anything and stood at a distance."

"Not only did he find it, but the owner of the antique shop and the eye-hand master also arrived a few tens of seconds later, and they also showed a very anxious look. At that time, I was anxious, so I agreed to the old man's price."

Having said that, he didn't continue talking.But Li Mo probably also understood what happened next, that is, he thought of usury, the kind that calculates the interest rate by the sky.

"You are just a student, how dare they lend you money."

Jiang Xiaofeng covered his face, rubbed his face vigorously and said in a low voice: "I have disclosed all the family information, especially my dad is a researcher at the Shanghai Museum, and there is a 130-square-meter school district room in Shanghai. So they gave me all the missing funds of more than 600 million yuan in one day, and then that painting by Tang Yin became mine."

"After I got the painting, I was thinking, since the boss of your calligraphy and painting shop thinks that the painting should be worth 5000 to 2000 million yuan, then I don't have to wait two or three months to go to the auction, I just sell it to the boss at a cheaper price, even if Even with a single cut, it can be sold for about 1000 million yuan, and when the loan is repaid, I can still earn more than [-] million yuan, which is worth it.”

Hearing this, Li Mo also knew the result, and he followed Jiang Xiaofeng's words and said: "When you go to the owner of the shop again, they will make a second careful appraisal and tell you that Tang Yin's painting is still unclear, so you can't see through it. You won’t take over your paintings. Then you go to other antique shop owners, and they all say the same thing, you can’t see through it, right?”

Jiang Xiaofeng nodded, "Not only were I looking for more than a dozen antique shops, but I also went to three auction houses on purpose. The masters over there also said that they were not sure. That's when I realized it. But everything It was too late, the loan of more than 600 million came at a rolling interest rate, and they also found the school to urge me to repay the loan. I was too scared at the time, so I followed their advice and borrowed another sum from others. This way, until the end It's an unmanageable situation right now."

Li Mo secretly sighed, this pit is too big.
