Those with long beards, those with short beards, and those without beards. A total of six little old men stood in front of the Dragon Boat Festival.
These six people are very impressive, the six master appraisers of Duobao Pavilion in Nanjing.
They have no names, but each has the mark of Duobao Pavilion: A, B, C, D, E, and Ji.
They are called Lao Jia, Lao Yi, Lao Bing, Lao Ding, Lao Wu and Lao Ji in Duobao Pavilion.
They are all equally capable of chopping and chopping with knives and axes, and their bodies are similar. They wear Duobao Pavilion classical traditional clothing, with a Chinese bunt on the upper body, carrot trousers on the lower body, and a pair of black cloth shoes on their feet. They all have Manchu braids and round-framed hair. Small sunglasses.
The six old men put their hands in their sleeves at the same time and bowed to the Dragon Boat Festival.
Duan Wu thought this was a bit interesting, regardless of whether he had real skills or not, but it looked legitimate.
"Gentlemen, come with me. I have a lot of antiques that need your appraisal. Please give me an authoritative appraisal result!"
When the Dragon Boat Festival was invited, the six old men bowed and saluted again.
Although they usually have great style, no one can touch them without hundreds of dollars. But today they were invited by soldiers armed with live ammunition.
Let alone them, the boss of Duobao Pavilion was scared to death.
So along the way, the six people didn't even mention a dime. What's more, the three characters "gendarme" made them stay silent.
Entering the camp, Xie Jinyuan greeted him: "Tuanzuo, are the treasure appraisers here?"
"Well, let's go and take a look."
Duanwu thought that Xie Jinyuan came to watch the fun because he heard that someone who appraised treasures was coming. But in fact, Xie Jinyuan was deceived by Zhu Shengzhong.
But the two people didn't know that they took six treasure appraisers to the temporary warehouse where antiques were stored.
This warehouse has an iron door, and there are two guards guarding the door, because the money stolen from the opium den and Wang Laohu's house is also stored here!
When the guards saw Duan Wu, Xie Jinyuan and others approaching, they quickly saluted and then opened the door of the warehouse.
Duanwu and others entered the warehouse, and guards brought three boxes of antiques over.
Duanwu signaled: "Let some masters take a look and appraise these antiques."
"Okay sir!"
The six old men acted separately, each looking for the treasure they were good at.
"Wow, I haven't seen Mi Yuanzhang's landscape paintings for thirty years."
"Wow, this is Zheng Banqiao's bamboo. What a waste of natural resources. Who did this? Why does it smell like smoke?"
"Come and take a look, this is a purple gold furnace from the Song Dynasty..."
"This is a Suihua official kiln, a good product from the Ming Dynasty."
"Wow, look, the authentic work of Emperor Qianlong: One World, One Dream..."
················
The six old men were as surprised as Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.
Xie Jinyuan pulled Duanwu aside and said, "Tuanzuo, do you think what they said is true?"
Duanwu said: "This is not important. What is important is their quotation and the seal of Duobao Pavilion."
Xie Jinyuan asked: "What does Tuanzuo mean?"
"You'll know in a minute."
The Dragon Boat Festival stalled for a while, and after all six old men had finished firming up, he said, "Have all the gentlemen finished firming up?"
The six old men bowed together: "Sir, we have finished the appraisal. A small part of these three boxes of treasures are real, and the rest are fakes. Some are imitations of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and some are from the Republic of China."
Duanwu thought for a while, picked up the original Qianlong calligraphy and asked, "How much does this calligraphy cost?"
Mr. Jia came out of the queue, stretched out a finger and said: "Ten thousand oceans."
"One world, one dream? Ten thousand oceans?"
Duanwu was surprised, but at this time, the old man Jia said: "There is no doubt that it is authentic, I dare to stamp it."
Duanwu thought to himself: "Okay, if you are willing to die, I will be willing to bury it. Anyway, this thing is not for my own use."
But the Dragon Boat Festival has to bring the ugly words to the front. Said: You must give honest quotations for these genuine products.
Mr. Jia thought for a while and wrote on a piece of white manuscript paper with a big stroke of his pen: "Qianlong's Royal Pen: One World, One Dream. Duobao Pavilion's quotation is 100,000 oceans."
Duanwu nodded with satisfaction, feeling that Mr. Jia was very honest.
Xie Jinyuan looked on and laughed angrily, and asked Duanwu: "Is this how they quoted the price?"
Duanwu said: "It doesn't matter, as long as they are happy."
When I was young, all the authentic works were evaluated, and a bunch of fake antiques were left.
Duanwu said: "Guys, please estimate the price of these antiques?"
The same old man came forward and said: "Sir, these are all fake and not worth much money."
Dragon Boat Festival stretched out five fingers and said: "Fifty yuan for each person."
Mr. Jia thought about it and apologized: "Sir, we still have to make a living by this craft!"
Dragon Boat Festival: "One hundred for each person."
A is in a dilemma: "Sir, it's not that we won't help you, we have professional ethics."
Dragon Boat Festival: "Two hundred for each person, plus a bullet."
Dragon Boat Festival took out his gun, and the six old men said quickly: "Sir, it is as much as you say."
Duanwu said with satisfaction: "You can just scrape together a few hundred thousand yuan."
Mr. Jia giggled: "Sir, I can't get it together. The most expensive one is only a dozen ocean dollars. Even if multiplied by ten, it's only more than a hundred ocean dollars, right?"
Duanwu crossed his arms and thought, but still shook his head and said: "No, you have to be honest, honest, and more honest."
"this!"
The six old men were really in a dilemma. They could manipulate the real thing, but if this fake thing was discovered, their sign would be destroyed.
Duanwu said: "Add two hundred oceans to each person and come up with a solution for me."
The six old men's eyes lit up, they gathered in a circle, chatted, and then turned around to pick through the pile of rags. A total of six fakes were found.
Mr. Jia took out a palm-sized bronze tripod and said, "This is a bronze tripod from the Shang and Zhou dynasties. It has sixteen inscriptions on it. The price is 80,000 yuan."
Yi Lao unfolded a landscape calligraphy and painting: "This is a painting by Zheng Banqiao when he was young. At that time, his painting skills were not mature enough, but his landscape paintings were rarely circulated. The price is 120,000 yuan."
Binglao held a pair of tea bowls: "Made in Ru kiln in the third year of Chenghua, the price is 30,000 yuan each,..."
Mr. Ding took out a seal and said, "This belongs to the poet Li Taibai. Although the seal is mostly worn, the word Taibai can still be seen. The price is 50,000 oceans!"
Wu Lao,......
Ji Lao,......
················
The six old men quoted prices separately, and the total price reached 400,000 yuan. They were risking their lives.
The six people were sweating, afraid that the Dragon Boat Festival would be dissatisfied.
Dragon Boat Festival was settling accounts, but at this moment, Xie Jinyuan said dissatisfied: "There are so many more. Why did you only take out six?"
Mr. Jia said breathlessly: "Sir, you don't know something. These six things look real. Let's make up another story for you. Most people can't tell. The rest are too fake and the brand is ruined." , from now on, the six of us brothers will not be able to deceive anyone."
The six old men told the truth. Xie Jinyuan was helpless and looked at Duanwu again.
Duanwu nodded and shouted: "Old Abacus, give me the money."
The old abacus felt pain in his body, curled his lips and said to Duan Wu: "Tuanzuo, there are six of them, two thousand and four hundred yuan, why not give them a gun each."
"Fart, I'm going to kill people for this little money?"
Duanwu cursed, and then said to Lao Baanpan: "You are stupid, we spent 2,400 yuan, but what we got back is 400,000 yuan. Do you think this account is appropriate?"
Lao Abacus suddenly realized it, nodded and said: "It's the best opinion of all the members."
"Nonsense, how else could I be a member of the group? Hahaha!"
Duanwu was having a laugh with Lao Abacus, but at this moment, Zhu Shengzhong came in panic and said: "The group is not in good condition. Wang Laohu's old disease has relapsed, and the rescue is ineffective. He is dead!..."
