The old lady sighed and glanced at the fake book in Pei Yian's hand. When she took it to other antique shops for appraisal, the other party also said that the book should be of some age, but as a fake from the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, it is just a fake, right? What's more, it is only about a hundred years old.
In addition, this thing is not completely preserved, and there are many insects and damages on it. The highest price offered by those antique shops was 110,000 yuan, and one antique shop even offered only 5,000 yuan.
How can such a small amount of money be enough? They couldn't even afford the old man's medical expenses, let alone if they wanted to continue the rehabilitation treatment after the old man was discharged from the hospital, it would be impossible...
Therefore, the old lady had not sold the book for the past two days. She would rather come to this cheating antique shop every day to trouble the owner. Apart from the 8 million, as long as the other party could give them half or even one-fifth of it, they might be able to get through this difficult time...
But 110,000 is too little...
"110,000 is indeed a little little..." As a book, the price of 110,000 is not low, but these things were originally bought for 8 million. With this calculation, it directly lost 7.89 million. It was naturally unbearable to suddenly lose such a large sum of money. Fang Tang nodded in understanding.
He just heard from the old lady that the old man had a stroke and needed a lot of medical expenses to be hospitalized, and this little money couldn't even make up the hospitalization fee.
"No, that's not what I'm talking about." Pei Yian shook his head, turned the book to the last page, picked up the page with a yellow halo, and fumbled back and forth. If it weren't for careful observation and comparison, ordinary people would not be able to find that the cover of the last page of the book was a little thicker than the cover of the first page, and the feel was also a little different.
However, such a slight difference is extremely inconspicuous. I guess when the person was looking for this book to put something into the cover of the last page, he also made the cover of the first page thicker.
"Then what are you talking about?" Hearing this, the old lady's eyes showed a little hope, "Is this book made by a famous artist?"
The old lady has also learned a little about antiques these days. She knows that these antiques are valuable not only because they have experienced a long time, but also because of the content and shape of the things, as well as the people who made these things at the time, and the people who used these things.
For example, the same royal tribute porcelain, the royal tribute recorded in history books is obviously much more expensive than those without any records, and these antique calligraphy and paintings, ordinary people's calligraphy and paintings, are naturally not as valuable as famous ones. This is not only the difference in the artistic conception of calligraphy and painting, but also a matter of fame...
No one needs the signatures of ordinary people, but the signatures of celebrities can be sold for tens of thousands, this is the difference!
Among these people who specialize in counterfeiting ancient paintings, there are also famous masters and unknown villains.
If this thing is made by a counterfeit master, the price will definitely be multiplied several times!
Thinking of this in her heart, the hope in the old lady's eyes is even greater.
Others obviously thought of this, and they all turned their eyes to Pei Yian, waiting for him to say this.
