Chapter 627 [627] Heartbroken and unable to breathe
"No way, you haven't even heard of Lingshanju? And you dare to say that you have been collecting antiques for more than ten years?"
"Lingshanju is the most famous antique shop in this antique street. How come there are still people who haven't heard of it?"
"Alas, Mr. Li, I just thought he was a good person, but I didn't expect him to be so ignorant."
"Since Boss Xue said there is such a person, then there must be one."
"Did this kid really find a treasure?"
Even those who had admired Li Guofu very much just now began to criticize him, which shows the status of Lingshan in everyone's mind.
Li Guofu's old face turned red as he listened to everyone's criticism. He quickly bowed to Xue Pu.
"I'm really sorry, I'm from another place, so I'm not very familiar with the antique world in Guangzhou, please forgive me."
Xue Pu waved his hand nonchalantly.
"My Lingshanju is just an ordinary antique shop. It's normal that you haven't heard of it. But this Mr. Chen Ye Nan is a master of landscape painting. If you have really studied calligraphy and painting for more than ten years, you should have heard of him."
Li Guofu's old face turned red again. In fact, he studied calligraphy and painting just to show off his taste, but his research was not in-depth.
When facing laymen, he can still pretend to be cool and scare people.
But when facing such industry experts, you dare not say any more, because the more you say, the more mistakes you will make.
Someone in the crowd immediately asked curiously, "Boss Xue, is Mr. Chen's painting valuable?"
When Xue Pu heard this, he frowned immediately.
"Mr. Chen has always been indifferent to fame and fortune. It is an insult to him to measure his works with money. But last year, an auction house sold one of his works, which was about the same size as this one, for more than 400,000 yuan."
"hiss……"
As soon as he said this, everyone present immediately gasped.
"A painting sold for more than 400,000? That really qualifies him as a master."
"So, this painting is worth at least several hundred thousand, right?"
"No way? This guy just picked up a painting and sold it for hundreds of thousands? Isn't it too easy to make money?"
"I bought it for 20,000 yuan, and I can make hundreds of thousands of yuan by reselling it? Isn't this a bit too much?"
"But this is what Boss Xue said, so it shouldn't be false."
"Boss Xue was just talking casually. If you ask him to spend hundreds of thousands to buy it, do you think he would be willing to do so?"
Perhaps to respond to everyone's doubts, Xue Pu immediately turned and looked at Ye Feng.
"My dear brother, I really like this landscape painting by Mr. Chen Ye Nan. I am willing to buy it for 500,000 yuan. I wonder if you are willing to give it up?"
When everyone heard this, they were dumbfounded.
If there were any doubts just now, there are no more doubts now.
Boss Xue is willing to pay for it himself, which proves that the painting is really worth the money.
The stall owner immediately regretted his decision.
He just sold this painting for 20,000 and thought he had made a fortune, but he didn't expect that he made 480,000 in the blink of an eye.
This made him feel like vomiting blood.
Ye Feng glanced at Li Guofu next to him and sighed, "I was originally going to give this painting to my teacher. Since he doesn't like it, I'll give it to Boss Xue."
When Li Guofu heard this, he felt as if his heart had been punched and it hurt so much that he couldn't breathe.
He actually passed by a landscape painting worth half a million dollars. Half a million dollars!
He was a corrupt official at school, causing great resentment among the people, but at the end of the year, he could only make 500,000 or 600,000 yuan.
Now someone wanted to give him a painting worth half a million dollars, but he refused it.
He was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe.
But now I want to regret it, but I can't lose face.
Just suffering like this.
Those who had praised Li Guofu before were now looking at him with a gloating expression.
"Hahaha, look at Teacher Li's expression, it's really wonderful."
"Nonsense, this is half a million dollars. Who can be happy if it is just handed over to someone for nothing?"
"I was really fooled by his awe-inspiring look just now. I thought he was really a man of high moral character and integrity."
"He probably thought that the other party couldn't come up with any expensive gifts, so he said that, right? He didn't expect that the other party actually gave him a painting worth half a million dollars. He must be regretting it now, right?"
"I didn't expect this young man to have such a good eye. He picked out a painting worth half a million dollars right away."
"It seems like he is not a gigolo. He has some real skills."
"Of course, otherwise how could I be favored by that beautiful lady?"
The sarcasm and ridicule from the crowd made Li Guofu's blood pressure soar. He almost fell to the ground and glared at Ye Feng fiercely.
I guess this guy knew that he wouldn't accept it, so he deliberately said he was giving him a gift, just to make him look bad in public. It's so despicable.
As for Zhuang Xiaoqiao, she looked at Ye Feng with more and more curiosity.
It seems that this guy is really knowledgeable about antiques. He can pick out a landscape painting worth hundreds of thousands of dollars with just one move.
I don't know what this guy can't do.
Facing everyone's strange looks, Ye Feng remained calm.
It was just a painting worth half a million dollars. Compared with his previous brilliant achievements, it was nothing.
These people are really making a fuss out of nothing.
Xue Pu seemed to see that Ye Feng didn't care about the three or five hundred thousand at all, and he couldn't help but feel secretly shocked.
It seems that this young man has an extraordinary family background.
Thinking of this, he spoke again.
"We are holding an antique blind box event at Lingshanju, and the admission fee is exactly 500,000. If this little brother is interested, why not use this painting to deduct the admission fee?"
Before Ye Feng could agree, Zhuang Xiaoqiao at the side immediately became interested, "Antique blind box? It sounds interesting. Ye Feng, shall we go and play with it?"
Ye Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly and nodded, "I'll listen to you."
Zhuang Xiaoqiao immediately jumped up and down, as happy as a child.
Boss Xue immediately led the two of them towards his own store, and those who were watching the fun followed.
Li Guofu looked at Ye Feng's back, gritting his teeth in hatred, "I'd like to see what else you can do, kid."
Thinking of this, I immediately followed.
