Chapter 269
Zhou Shuren and Jiang Ming came together, everyone who came here saw it, and naturally linked Zhou Shuren and Jiang Ming together, many people watched Zhou Shuren when he went downstairs.
Zhou Shuren signed up for this competition early in the morning. Fortunately, Jiang Ming didn't make a mistake. Otherwise, he would have to pay for an antique if he retired. He felt that he was lucky, at least he successfully entered the competition.
Looking at the antiques again, Zhou Shuren raised his eyebrows, he couldn't stop his luck, he was the weakest in calligraphy and painting, the calligraphy and painting he took was the only one of the ten antiques, hey, good!
Sitting upstairs, Jiang Ming could see clearly that Zhou Shuren was the first to draw a pen, and he was also the one who appraised the fastest. From time to time, there were discussions in his ears. Some people said that Zhou Shuren was guessing, but he didn't think so, so it seems Zhou Shuren's ability is indeed not small, and there are more smiles on his face. If everything is true, it proves that Zhou Shuren's ability is indeed great, and he won't need to ask for appraisal in the future. Okay, really good!
Zhou Shuren was the first to put down his pen after reading all the antiques. All ten antiques were appraised by the masters. Zhou Shuren handed in the antiques as soon as he entered the door. The results of the appraisal were in the hands of several appraisal masters. After carefully looking at the other nine pieces, he was not crazy about everything.
Fortunately, after reading it carefully, the result was the same as the first time. Zhou Shuren was the first to submit the answer.
After another quarter of an hour, answers were handed in one after another.
Among the ten people, Zhou Shuren is not the oldest, the oldest is Juren who is about fifty years old, and the youngest is less than twenty years old.
The answers of the ten people were announced soon, and the names of the people who made the most mistakes were read first.
Zhou Shuren listened with pricked ears, and sure enough, the five people he read out all had his calligraphy and paintings wrong. As he read the bottom three, Zhou Shuren also became nervous.
The third to last is the youngest son, two pieces are wrong, but there are still calligraphy and paintings.
Zhou Shuren is a calm person, and his heart is not calm. If the key name is his name, he will lose, and he can't help but temporarily hug the Buddha's feet and pray for blessings.
The forehead of Juren on the opposite side was also sweaty.
Fortunately, Zhou Shuren’s calligraphy and paintings are fake. Scholars seldom study Mr. Xiheng’s calligraphy.
The scene was boiling. I didn't expect that all nine people had calligraphy and paintings.
Zhou Shuren pressed the corner of his mouth, he won, he has money, okay.
Jiang Ming laughed, very well, Zhou Shuren is capable and did not disappoint him.
The appraiser in the building explained why the calligraphy and paintings are fake, and the nine people who competed with Zhou Shuren were convinced.
Zhou Shuren was overjoyed, he had appraised all of them, although there were no antiques with high value this time, but the nine antiques were not bad, thinking about it, except for the old fritters who participated in it would not bring high value Antiques, no one is stupid!
Although there is no antique worth buying by the organizer, the organizer is more interested in the fake calligraphy and paintings in Zhou Shuren's hands, and because of Jiang Ming's presence, Zhou Shuren borrowed a lot of light, and the other nine antiques have not been lowered. Zhou Shuren sold the fake calligraphy and painting at a fair price. He knew in his heart that even with Jiang Ming's help, there are many people who are interested in calligraphy and painting.
In order to avoid trouble, it is better to sell directly to save worry.
Jiang Ming waited for Zhou Shuren to take the money and got into the carriage together to leave. Jiang Ming said, "I'll take you back."
Zhou Shuren thanked, "Thank you, Mr. Jiang."
Although there are no valuable treasures for the ten antiques, they are still a lot of money. The local hooligans will inevitably be tempted. In case someone takes a risk, this is another purpose for him to borrow Jiang Ming's power. I didn't expect Jiang Ming to be so good. Before he could mention it, he personally sent him back. It seemed that he had fallen into Jiang Ming's eyes.
Jiang Ming said playfully, "You played tricks today."
Zhou Shuren said generously: "Yes, I did take a chance. I have researched and found that very few officials' children participate in the competition, and most of them are scholars or businessmen. Mr. Xiheng's name is more powerful. I won’t study it if I don’t know it, this one really took advantage of it.”
After he had been appraised in various antique shops, he was more determined to take calligraphy and painting to the competition, and he was not small in his intention to play tricks.
Jiang Ming thought to himself that his father-in-law is not optimistic about Zhou Shuren because of his in-laws. This person's ability is indeed not small, and his calculations are enough for him to look at him. But from what he knows, this person's ambition is not small, and it seems impossible to accept it for his own use. , then we can only wait, there is no rush right now, we will talk about whether we are successful or not.
Zhou Shuren saw that Jiang Ming didn't intend to talk anymore, and he was not annoying. Holding the box, his heart was flying, this is all money, Zhulan must be happy, thinking of Zhulan, his heart is light, and his eyes are full of smiles.
The carriage wandered to Zhou's house, Zhou Shuren got out of the carriage, bowed and thanked him: "Master Xie Jiang helped twice today."
Jiang Ming smiled, "They're all in-laws. It's getting late, so I'll be back too."
Jiang Ming didn't plan to stay any longer. He suddenly realized that what he had overlooked was that Zhou Shuren was the father of his brother-in-law, or his own brother-in-law. In terms of his seniority, he was still Zhou Shuren's junior, which was really awkward!
Zhou Shuren waited for the carriage to go far away before returning to the yard with the box in his arms happily.
Zhulan happened to come out to check the time, and when she saw Zhou Shuren coming back with the box in her arms, she smiled, "Win?"
Zhou Shuren patted the box, strode arrogantly into the room, "You don't even look at who I am."
Zhulan laughed lightly, and the man snarled, "You are my master."
Zhou Shuren listened to the words, "Guess how much money it sold for."
Zhulan must have guessed that there must be a lot, otherwise they wouldn't put them in a box, "Three thousand taels?"
Zhou Shuren shook his head, "It's missing. Although this treasure is not of great value, it's not bad. One piece is worth six hundred taels."
Zhulan's heart fluttered, and she kissed Zhou Shuren excitedly, and then froze.
Boss Zhou stood at the door of the house. He really didn't expect the door to be open. He saw his mother and father when he came in. Hey, he felt that he was going to be miserable, so he didn't need to react. He ran away, muttering, "I don't see anything."
Zhulan has the heart to sew the boss's mouth. Damn boy, the voice is not low, and most of the yard can hear it. Zhulan's eyes are full of anger, "I support you to clean him up."
Zhou Shuren laughed out loud, it was the first time he had seen Zhulan so angry with the boss, seeing Zhulan's little hand was about to pinch him again, he said with a strong desire to survive: "Okay, okay, I'll take care of the boss."
Boss Zhou ran back to the house and patted himself on the head. He did something stupid again. What did he shout just now? Isn’t this place without three hundred taels of silver? This time not only father is going to clean him up, but also mother is not waiting to see him anymore, he is going to be the most pitiful person in the family.
Mrs. Li frowned, "Boss, what are you doing?"
And what did you just yell? Didn't he go to talk to his father?
Boss Zhou looked hopeless, "Don't ask, I want to die."
Lee, ""
This made Dad angry.
Boss Zhou didn't wait for his wife's comfort, but saw her continue to play with the newly sprouted vegetable seedlings, "Aren't you comforting?"
Mrs. Li, "Is comfort useful?"
"It's useless."
"That's enough."
Mrs. Li acted like you were asking nonsense.
Boss Zhou, ""
In the main room, Zhulan counted the silver bills, the anger in her heart disappeared, and she counted one hundred taels of silver bills one by one.
Zhou Shuren, "You counted it twice."
