Soldier King's Love Story in the City

Chapter C140





Ouyang Qian still looked angry and cute.


"I think our company needs to add a bit of humanity to it. How about we go to the antique shop and buy some calligraphy and paintings?"


Zhang Chun found an excuse.


"Are you really planning to buy some paintings or calligraphy? Don\'t you want to hang out with me?"


Ouyang Qian\'s eyes lit up.


"Of course, you think I\'m inviting you on a date?"


Zhang Chun spoke the truth.


"If you want to date me, I might not be willing!" Ouyang Qian rolled her eyes at Zhang Chun, but she could not hide the disappointment on her face.


Zhang Chun sighed. Ever since the Japan came back, he had indeed been busy, to the point of snubbing the little girl Ouyang Qian.


The two of them had reached their destination, an antique market on the east side of the city as they continued to play around.


"This is the shop. This is the one my brother used to frequent." Ouyang Qian led the way in front.


Zhang Chun looked at this antique shop. It was no different from a normal antique shop, he wondered why Bu Ping appointed this shop.


This shop had arranged all the paintings very well, making Zhang Chun feel as though he had walked into an ancient family\'s study.


"Miss Ouyang, why have you come?"


Boss Li who was conversing with others saw Ouyang Qian entering the door and immediately raised his head to greet her. Seems like she was indeed more familiar with Ouyang Qian.


"Come and choose something for your present. We\'ll just take a look ourselves. Brother Li, you can do it yourself."


Ouyang Qian was still as gentle towards every stranger.


When the man who was discussing with the Boss Li just now heard Ouyang Qian\'s words, he naturally began to bargain with the Boss Li.


"Boss Li, this painting is really a family heirloom. "According to the records of my family, they can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty, how could they be paintings from the Qing Dynasty?"


The man looked wronged as he tried to defend himself.


Boss Li interrupted the man\'s endless talking and explained with complete confidence.


"But this is really a painting from Qian Long\'s era, and it\'s a fake one at that."


After experiencing such a farce, Zhang Chun and Ouyang Qian naturally looked at the painting curiously.


It was an antique landscape ink painting, and it was beautifully framed, supported by a white silk cloth.


"How can this painting be a fake!"


The man looked angry, his voice full of anger.


"Mister, I\'ve already explained it to you many times …"


Boss Li\'s tone was also not very good.


"Please forgive my bluntness, but this painting is truly trash! This painting is indeed a painting from the Northern Song Dynasty, but please feel the edges of this paper, it was clearly mounted during the Qianlong period! "


"Boss Li is an expert in the field of ink painting. It is said that he has never made a mistake before!"


Ouyang Qian introduced the place to Zhang Chun in a low voice.


"How could this be? Before my father passed away, he told me that this painting was a masterpiece from the Northern Song Dynasty! How could he possibly lie to me! "


The man\'s argument became more and more powerless.


"If this painting is really a fake, what should I do?!"


Could this painting be the treasure that Bu Ping mentioned he needed to buy? He had to confirm it again.


Zhang Chun couldn\'t help but be curious when he saw the sorrowful look on the face of the man in front of him.


"Whether I\'m right or wrong has nothing to do with you!"


When the man heard Zhang Chun\'s words, he looked to be extremely displeased.


"Boss Li, even if this painting is fake, how much do you think it would be worth?"


After hesitating for a moment, the man finally accepted the reality. It seemed that he also believed that this painting was a fake.


"This painting is at most twenty thousand, and that\'s because he was painted during the Qing Dynasty."


Boss Li shook his head.


"To be honest, I\'m afraid this painting was painted by your ancestors. But even now, painters with stronger foundations can draw better. "


Boss Li attacked the man without holding back. After all, they were doing business now, and the cheaper they got, the more Boss Li would earn.


However, he did not expect that the man would actually let out a heart-wrenching cry when he heard the price.


Not to mention a soft-hearted person like Ouyang Qian, even Zhang Chun was infected by the crying sound.


"I say, bro, isn\'t it just a painting? If it\'s tens of thousands less, then it\'s tens of thousands less."


Ouyang Qian immediately passed some toilet paper to the man.


It seemed like a beauty still had a lot of face, but the man actually told her the reason even as he sobbed.


"I\'ve let you two down. This painting is the only valuable thing in my family now! I was going to sell it for a good price to treat my mother\'s illness. "


"Stop lying, aren\'t you just playing a love card? You want to sell it for more money?"


Boss Li scoffed.


"I really didn\'t lie to you all! To be honest, I wouldn\'t have sold it a year or two ago. "


"My family was very well off. But I didn\'t expect my father to have a strange disease the year before last. "


"My mother and I spent all our savings to treat my father\'s illness, causing our family to be ruined. We even owed him a lot of debt. But my father died three months ago. "


"But there is no single disaster. My mother is suffering from the same strange illness as my father. Although my mother had given up, she had repeatedly told me not to waste my money. However, as a son, how could I bear to see her in such pain? So, I had no choice but to sell this painting, which even my father would not be willing to sell even in his death? "


"I didn\'t expect it to be a painting from the Qianlong period!" It was also because the gentleman from yesterday told me that the painting was worth a lot of money and wanted me to come and sell it. How could I foolishly believe his words! "


The man was crying his heart out. It seemed that he was truly heartbroken.


Zhang Chun\'s brows twitched, it seems like this is the man that Bu Ping mentioned!


Zhang Chun took the chance when everyone was not paying attention to turn around, he used his finger to look into the eyes and pressed on his contact lens.


He was able to see the wonders of this painting with a single glance!


What appeared in Zhang Chun\'s eyes was no longer the flower, plant, ink and water painting, but a majestic mountain and river painting!


Even someone like Zhang Chun, who did not know much about paintings, was stunned by the painting.


"Boss Li, this painting might really be a Song Dynasty painting!"


Zhang Chun hesitated, but still said it.


"This little brother, although you were brought here by Miss Ouyang Qian, please do not speak carelessly!"


Being humiliated continuously by outsiders for being so professional, Boss Li was so angry that he was like an exploding pot.


"You\'re doubting my professional abilities!"


Zhang Chun was shocked, he did not expect Boss Li to be so angry, and immediately explained.
