Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

But this move really made Chen Qi very angry.

Even if Feng Xiaofeng took it away, Chen Qi could still spend money to buy it back.

What he was afraid of was that Lin Ran would be poached by the Feng family. With his current relationship with the Qilin Society, he would bring countless benefits to the Chen family.

If you are really bribed by Feng Xiaofeng and tell the Feng family the truth, the Chen family will not be able to be controlled by others in the future.

Chen Qi wanted to step forward to stop him, but Feng Xiaofeng clapped his hands, and then a man who looked like a butler stood up from behind him and said to Lin Ran: "I saw Mr. Chen's car outside. I have already painted the calligraphy and painting on it." Leave it at the door of the car, you can just pick it up later."

It turned out that he had already arranged it.

Lin Ran was deeply surprised, but expressed his gratitude to Feng Xiaofeng: "Master Feng, this painting is too expensive. I will definitely give you the money. I owe you a favor for what happened today."

"We are still talking about whether we owe money or not. Isn't it just a broken painting?" Feng Xiaofeng glanced at Chen Qi meaningfully and said, "Our Feng family is different from the Chen family. We never consider people's background when hiring people. If they are in Chen Qi, If you can’t show off your talents at home, you are welcome to contact me at any time.”

After saying that, he stuffed a business card into Lin Ran's jacket pocket, patted his shoulder, turned and left.

Lin Ran felt that something was fishy, ​​but he had a good impression of Feng Xiaofeng, but he didn't know what was wrong.

Chen Qi walked over with a look of disgust on his face, took out Lin Ran's business card from his pocket, and tore it into pieces.

Then he took out Big Brother and yelled at his subordinates: "You take 10 yuan and send it to the people from Xia Ya Chamber of Commerce. Just say that Master Chen Qi bought a calligraphy and painting from him. By the way, it's not 15 yuan." , give them [-]."

After saying that, he hung up the phone angrily.

It was really childish, Lin Ran smiled helplessly.

After losing his temper, Chen Qi breathed a sigh of relief.

"In short, we cannot let the Feng family underestimate us." Chen Qi said.

Now that they had bought everything they wanted, they left the fair.

In the parking lot, I found a packaged calligraphy and painting leaning against their car door.

When I pulled it out, I saw it was "Picture of Picking Wei".

The national treasure-level calligraphy and painting was just left in the parking lot.

If Tang Lanxuan knew about it, I don't know what his expression would be.

But it didn't matter to Lin Ran. Once he got the thing, he could go back and repair it before putting it on display.

Let young people take a good look at what integrity is.

The two of them were preparing to get into the car. Other paintings had already been transported to the store by truck and were appraised by the master of appraisal and sales.

Suddenly I heard a shout from behind.

When he turned around, he saw the old man from before. He had changed into casual clothes and was jogging over.

Lin Ran was worried that he would fall, so he hurried forward and said, "Uncle, don't worry."

Chen Qize frowned with an unhappy expression.

He thought it was this guy who didn't know how to appreciate others, which caused him to lose face in front of Feng Xiaofeng, and he immediately vented his embarrassment and anger on him.

"Old ghost, what are you doing here?" Chen Qi snorted coldly.

"Little brother, I heard that this painting was donated to you, so I want to talk to you about the key points of restoration." The old man said calmly, as if he didn't hear Chen Qi's sarcasm at all.

"If you knew how to restore calligraphy and painting, would you sell such bad calligraphy and painting?" Chen Qi sneered, his words full of disdain.

"Hey, I started to learn painting when I was six years old. If my family hadn't been poor, I could have entered the Hong Kong American College to study. Later, I went to the mainland to work as an apprentice, and I made a lot of money. I have been studying painting for 50 years, so restoring this calligraphy and painting is actually not a big deal. Big problem." The old man said neither humble nor arrogant.

"You are a liar. You are clearly a broker. You are pretending to be a wolf with a big tail." Chen Qi exposed him without hesitation.

"You are wrong about this. If I don't know the goods, can I let this young man like the paintings I worked so hard to acquire?"

Lin Ran raised his index finger at Chen Qi, signaling him to stop talking.

I want to hear the opinion of the old man.

The old man took out an envelope and said, "We are short of time, and the key points for restoration are all in it. You can take a look when you go back, or ask a restorer to take a look."

Handing the envelope to Lin Ran, he glanced at the "Picture of Picking Wei" with a little reluctance, turned around and prepared to leave.

Lin Ran stopped him, "Old sir, since you can repair the scroll, why don't you do it yourself?"

"Alas..." The old man seemed to have something to say, but hesitated, "Forget it, to put it simply, I am short of money now."

He looked solemn and said sadly: "It can be seen that my little brother has real talent and learning. I hope you can pass on the Chinese culture and not be polluted by the mud."

"Pictures of Picking the Vessel" was placed in the back seat. Lin Ran looked at the scenery outside the window and recalled what happened at the trade fair just now. It felt like a dream.

However, he was still more delighted than confused.

After all, he confirmed the feasibility of the color smelling method in reality and got a national treasure calligraphy and painting for free.

Although it was the Chen family's money that was lost, he was sure that Feng Xiaofeng would not accept the money.

He opened the envelope and read what was written on it.

As a result, I saw the requirements for drawing paper, the method of preparing potions, and the key points of drawing...

The various techniques mentioned in it are no less than those of the master who once taught him how to restore cultural relics!

Lin Ran was shocked. He originally thought that the old man was just talking casually, or just a rough repair technique.

He didn't expect it to be so detailed, and he hadn't even thought about some of the potions mentioned.

This kind of talent would actually appear at a trade fair.

If it weren't for his skill in smelling sex, he would now doubt whether he had forged the painting.

Thinking that Chen Qi seemed to know him, Lin Ran asked: "Chen Qi, what was the name of the old man just now?"

"You mean Wu Qingniu?" Chen Qi said with a disdainful tone, "He is just a second-rate dealer. He buys cultural relics from the mainland every day and sells them in the port city. He also demands a lot of them and plays tricks all day long."

Chen Qi made a lot of comments, not a single good word.

But Lin Ran felt that he was very discerning and had this kind of repair ability. He was definitely not a liar who could only brag.

What he needs now is to recruit talents in the antique industry. If he can recruit this kind of restorer, it will be of great help to his future.

Remembering that he wanted money, Lin Ran said to Chen Qi, "Can I ask you to investigate something?"

"I have arranged for someone to look for the pass. I will give you an answer within five days." Chen Qi said without looking back.

"It's not a pass. I want you to investigate. Why is Wu Qingniu so anxious for money?"

Chen Qi, who was driving, suddenly stepped on the brakes and almost stalled.

He looked at Lin Ran dumbfounded and asked, "Why are you investigating him?"
