Chapter 235 Identification

"Ah, how do you know?"

"With your colonel accent, only a fool would not be able to understand it."

After Li Jiandong finished speaking, he asked him to give him the copybook.

Li Jiandong took it and took a look - it was a fake.

Stupid fake.

Of course, the system skills have told Li Jiandong that this sentimental post is fake.

But the reason why Li Jiandong knew this was because the real sentimental stickers were now collected in a museum in Beijing.

It is the largest museum.

There is no doubt about this.

How can people in this day and age believe this is true?

Xiao Rizi said to Li Jiandong, "Sir, is this sentimental note real?"

It can be seen that people want to buy these days.

Li Jiandong smiled slightly: "In the ghost market, anything is possible."

"For example, the handwriting of Wang Xizhi's "Sentimental Letter" shows that his brushstrokes are powerful."

"And there is also a sense of vicissitudes when Wang Xizhi wrote this sentimental note."

"In fact, both in age and mentality, they have become mature and elegant."

"It can be said that this sentimental post is truly a masterpiece."

"Sir, are you planning to buy it?" Li Jiandong looked at him.

"Yes, although I am a person of ordinary means, I am a person who likes Wang Xizhi's calligraphy very much."

"This kind of calligraphy work is so attractive that I want to buy it."

Li Jiandong then smiled and said to the boss: "Boss, you know the rules of this industry."

"You're breaking the rules by doing this."

The boss was a little worried that Li Jiandong would expose him.

But seeing Li Jiandong like this, the boss knew what was going on.

The boss said cheerfully, "I am talking to this gentleman."

“This sentimental note is indeed a collection for those who love cultural relics.”

"I also saw that this gentleman had come all the way here from his childhood, so I was a little touched."

"I just thought that since this is the case, I might as well give them a hand."

"It can be considered as doing good deeds."

Li Jiandong smiled slightly: "Then how much do you plan to pay for this Mr. Xiaori?"

This little guy also smiled honestly: "For this, it mainly depends on the boss."

"But I am sincere in writing this note, and I hope the boss can give me a little discount."

After hearing this, Li Jiandong looked over.

The boss clearly understood what Li Jiandong meant.

The boss held up five fingers and said, "Mr. Xiao Ri Zi, we agreed on this at the beginning."

"Fifty thousand dollars, but since you came all the way here, how about forty-five thousand?"

"Good deal." Mr. Xiao Rizi was also very happy.

The boss then said cheerfully: "Wait, don't be in a hurry, take a closer look first."

"According to the rules of our business, don't look back and make a fuss. You come to me, but I won't recognize you."

And this young man seems to be very clear about the rules of this industry.

He said cheerfully, "I understand this matter. I understand it."

"Since I have been looking at it for a long time, I am sure that this is the authentic one."

"If it's fake, it's my own fault. It has nothing to do with you, boss."

Hearing this, Li Jiandong couldn't help laughing.

These little people are really funny.

He actually dared to mess around in an area that he was not familiar with.

Who are those people in this ghost market?
They are all smart people.

These people actually dare to come to the ghost market to buy sentimental notes, and they are written by Wang Xizhi.

This is just seeking death.

However, since you are buying it for your daily life, there is nothing much to say.

Anyway, each industry has its own rules.

That's the rule of the trade.

You see it clearly, but if you make a mistake, then that is your own problem.

Can't blame the seller.

This industry has followed these rules for thousands of years.

After the two of them settled the payment and goods, Xiao Zi turned around and left happily.

Li Jiandong also said to the boss happily: "Then boss, your business is booming."

The boss then said, "Sir, do you want to see something?"

"I do plan to buy something, but I will set up a stall over there."

"If you have something good later, bring it to me."

"But let me be frank. If you bring fake stuff, don't blame me for not doing business with you in the future."

Li Jiandong had actually already figured out that this sentimental post was fake.

The boss also knew that Li Jiandong had a good eye, so he naturally didn't dare to do anything rash.

The boss said directly: "Please rest assured, sir."

"Let's get back to the basics."

Li Jiandong left the stall and took Fang Ru to set up a stall in an empty space under the big locust tree.

At this time, Fang Ru asked curiously, "Mr. Li, what about the sentimental note?"

"Of course it's fake." Li Jiandong said directly.

"Why did Mr. Li conclude that it was fake? Didn't many people say it was real?" Fang Ru asked curiously.
"Does this need to be identified? Ms. Fang, can't you see it?"

Li Jiandong looked at Fang Ru with some surprise.

After all, Fang Ru is the boss of Cuiwen Pavilion.

There is no historical background at all.

It shouldn't be.

Fang Ru said directly: "I have read it and studied it carefully."

“Is this really the original?”

"So I was very curious just now, Mr. Li, why didn't you stop this boss?"

"I really looked at it carefully, and also asked several people to identify it."

"I came to you only because I'm sure it's the authentic one." Fang Ru said.

Li Jiandong then said happily: "No wonder, Miss Fang was also deceived in this matter."

"I thought Miss Fang knew that there is such a thing as copying in this world."

"I know about copying, but this is not the original." Fang Ru asked curiously.

Li Jiandong said, "In fact, the post about the boss's injury is not authentic."

"It's just that I added some rice bugs and made the drawing paper look old."

"I used some medicinal wine to soak the painting, and then dried it in the sun."

"Once there are two or three months, it will naturally become like the real thing."

"Secondly, the characters above were not actually written by Wang Xizhi himself."

"It's just that there are people with better craftsmanship who use the originals to get the originals down."

"At that time, other people used this replica of the original to start their work directly on it."

"If we make it this way, it will only take half a year and it will be indistinguishable from the real thing."

"Ms. Fang, we hired several experts this time but they were all deceived."

"Then it can be considered a mistake." Li Jiandong said lightly.

After hearing what Li Jiandong said, Fang Ru was completely confused.

"Ah, Mr. Li, is what you said true?" Fang Ru couldn't believe it.

I am the boss of Cuiwen Pavilion, how could there be such a big problem with such a thing?

Isn't this funny.

Li Jiandong himself said directly: "Ms. Fang, you may not believe me, but think about it carefully."

"Who is Wang Xizhi? His things are so valuable in the antique business."

"A copy of Lanting Preface, which is truly the best calligraphy in the world."

"If there is any authentic work of such a person that has been leaked."

"Do you think you can get to this ghost market? Can you appear in the ghost market?"

"Without saying anything more, if the boss was really selling an authentic work of Wang Xizhi, I'm afraid the police would have swarmed in from outside this ghost market."

"No, to be precise, the boss didn't even have the chance to show the original to the common people."

"The state has long required them to be handed over. How could such historical relics be real?" Li Jiandong said cheerfully.

Fang Ru's face turned red and white after hearing these words.

Unexpectedly, I am also the boss of Cuiwen Pavilion after all.

This is a century-old store, and there are few stores in the city that can compare to it.

I almost made a mistake on this matter.

However, fortunately, this thing is not real, so I can finally feel relieved this time.

"Mr. Li, I didn't realize that you have such a great ability in appreciation." Fang Ru said admiringly.

Li Jiandong smiled slightly and didn't explain anything.

Relying on the skills given by the system, he naturally had no problem because Li Jiandong came to the Ghost Market specifically to purchase things.

So very quickly, the bosses around all took out their things.

Anyway, Li Jiandong had already said it before.

He often comes to purchase goods, but if anyone dares to bring fake goods.

Then I will never do business with him again.

This line of work has its own rules, and Li Jiandong must make things clear first.

Soon, many people gathered around.

Li Jiandong asked them to line up and come one by one.

After all, it's a ghost market, so it's definitely not a good idea to show off.
Moreover, it has basically been reformed now.

In fact, not many people know how long this ghost market will last.

After all, the ghost market is something that appears during a special period of time.

In the past, those impoverished princes sold their ancestral property for fear of being discovered.

That’s why this ghost market was invented.

But so many years have passed, let alone the Qing Dynasty.

The Republic of China is gone.

If that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about.

Therefore, it is only a matter of time before this ghost market is cancelled.

After all, who likes to be a thief for no reason?

It is for this reason that Li Jiandong took advantage of this opportunity to make a quick acquisition.

When these cultural relics reach the twentieth century, they may be even more valuable.

Moreover, Li Jiandong himself understood that the acquisition would be made anyway.

In the process of acquiring, I collected small cultural relics and small items.

Naturally, the big countries won’t care. Anyway, if you collect and sell the items, it is your legal personal behavior.

No matter you.

But I'm sorry about the big objects and large cultural relics.

Li Jiandong will definitely not do anything rash. After all, he is making a contribution to the country.

It was almost dawn and Li Jiandong had collected several woven bags.

On several occasions, because the stall was full, Li Jiandong asked Fang Ru to help him look after it.

He quietly ran outside and put the things into the system space.

Then he went back and forth several times, making people think that Boss Li was really generous.

He even brought people to collect things.

Just tell me whether it’s amazing or not.

It was also the first time that Fang Ru knew that Li Jiandong was so capable.

This made the woman have some other thoughts.

After the acquisition was completed, Li Jiandong took Fang Ru and left the Ghost Market.

At this moment, the sky was beginning to brighten.

Although there were still no people on the streets, some households that had to work early shifts had started to get up.

Li Jiandong then said to Fang Ru: "Okay, it's time now."

"You've been tired all night, go back and rest."

Fang Ru nodded, and just a few steps away, she turned back.

"Mr. Li, we have a cultural relic coming to our Liulichang recently, and I would like to invite you to help identify it."

"Me?" Li Jiandong was a little surprised: "I'm a nobody, and you're all experts, why do you need me?"

Fang Ru then said cheerfully, "Mr. Li, look at what you said."

"If you are an amateur, then we are outsiders."

"Don't worry, I won't hire you for nothing. How about giving you at least 30,000 yuan for the appraisal?"

In this day and age, the appraisal fee is 30,000 yuan, which means you are really rich.

Li Jiandong is naturally not short of money. In fact, Li Jiandong was already very rich in the 1960s.

But Fang Ru's words made Li Jiandong very curious.

What is going on? Why should I pay so much for the appraisal?
Could it be that what Fang Ru said has some significant historical value?
Seeing Li Jiandong's curiosity, Fang Ru said, "Mr. Li, to be honest,

"We in Liulichang regularly hold competitions among people in the industry."

"To put it bluntly, it means not letting the guys in my store be careless."

"It can also be regarded as a way to show off the collections in my store."

"You also know that in a place like Liulichang, every store has its own things."

"If you can't make this brand work, you won't be in this business anymore."

"So, this incident is actually due to internal problems within our Liuli Factory."

Li Jiandong finally understood that this was a plan for him to support her.

But Ms. Fang Ru is still a good person, and that's why.

So, Li Jiandong is willing to help
Moreover, Li Jiandong himself was also curious about the internal competition in Liulichang.

Thinking of this, Li Jiandong nodded: "Okay, since you have spoken, Ms. Fang."

“I will definitely agree to this.”

"But Ms. Fang, I have to make it clear that I can't identify everything with 100% certainty."

“There may be times when I get blindsided.”

"If you get hurt, don't come and trouble me." Li Jiandong said cheerfully.

Fang Ru nodded and said, "Of course, Mr. Li, please rest assured."

"Everyone knows the rules of this industry."

"Since I have invited you to help me with the appraisal, I will naturally bear the risks myself."

Li Jiandong then nodded in agreement: "Okay, if that's the case, when?"

"I'll pick you up at five tomorrow afternoon and take you to my restaurant for dinner."

"After dinner, just follow me."

According to the rules, you have to eat a meal beforehand.

Li Jiandong did not refuse.

Recently, the research and development of this great country has been managed by its own disciples.

Plus, there was nothing else important happening, so Li Jiandong didn't care.

Anyway, I might as well go and take a look myself. Maybe there’s something in there that I don’t know about.

Maybe I can get some myself.

After returning to the courtyard, Li Jiandong called his wife Qin Huairu.

After reporting that he was safe, Li Jiandong made dinner for himself in the courtyard.

Wake up.

It was already the next morning.

I went around the factory and confirmed that there was no problem.

Only then did Li Jiandong return to the courtyard to rest.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, Fang Ru came to pick up Li Jiandong in person.

When he arrived at the dining place, two people were already waiting for Li Jiandong.

Through Fang Ru's introduction, I learned that these two people were the master and clerk of Cuiwen Pavilion.

I can be said to be following Fang Ru.

After introducing each other, they had their meal first.

Then he went out.

Walking towards the western outskirts of the city, I soon saw the entrance to a quiet courtyard.

At this time, Fang Ru walked to the front of the gate.

Then he knocked on the door rhythmically.

Like some kind of secret code.

After a while, a young man came out and opened the door.

"you are?"

"I am Fang Ru, the owner of Cuiwen Pavilion, who was invited by Mr. Zhao."

"Ah, it's Boss Fang. Please come in."

Several people walked in under the guidance of the man.

After entering the gate, there is a garden in front, with flowers and plants on both sides.

Li Jiandong could see that the owner of this yard was quite romantic.

The flowers and plants in this yard are not ordinary
The man in front also said as he walked: "Boss Fang."

"Our boss said you haven't been here recently, and I thought you didn't plan to attend."

Fang Ru then said, "No, it's not just me who is not well-educated and I don't dare to come here rashly."

"The reason I came here this time is also to learn."

Fang Ru said this very modestly.

But it's also very decent.

Because Fang Ru originally asked Li Jiandong for help.

You can't just brag on Li Jiandong's behalf.

If she made big promises and Li Jiandong couldn't keep them.

Then Cuiwen Pavilion became a joke among its peers. (End of this chapter)
