    But Zhao Xiangbo still didn't forget to tease him, "Why don't you go and take a look again, maybe you can really pick something you like."

    "Okay, why don't you come with Professor Zhao? I happen to have a lot of questions to ask." Zhou Xia originally wanted to get out of the way, but then he thought about it. There is nothing particularly important to do when he goes back. Zhao Xiangbo is here, so don't ask him.  Go into the water and take the opportunity to take out something from him. It's not a pity to miss such a good opportunity, and this trip to the ghost market will not be in vain.

    "You really don't want to take any losses." Zhao Xiangbo said happily, "It's okay for me to go home so early, so I'll go shopping with you."

    Zhou Xia chuckled. Zhao Xiangbo is knowledgeable and experienced, but his temper is a little weird. But Zhou Xia is a dead pig now and is not afraid of boiling water. It is quite worthwhile to learn something from him.

    With a walking dictionary like Zhao Xiangbo by his side, Zhou Xia asked whatever came to his mind without worrying about whether it might be a secret that Zhao Xiangbo could not tell.  Anyway, that's what he thought. If Zhao Xiangbo didn't want to say something, then he wouldn't say it. He still had to ask what he wanted to ask.

    Zhao Xiangbo was a bit dumbfounded, and Zhou Xia was too rude. He either asked some tricky and weird questions, or asked some questions that required a long period of experience to be answered. This was simply trying to dig into his background.  But since Zhao Xiangbo agreed, he still had to answer one by one. When he encountered something he didn't want to say or couldn't explain clearly at the moment, he just skipped it vaguely, and Zhou Xia didn't ask any further questions.

    Along the way, neither of them found anything worth buying. Seeing that it was getting late, everyone dispersed. Zhao Xiangbo thought to himself that it was finally almost over.

    But Zhou Xia felt that he had gained quite a lot, and he also felt a little regretful that time passed too quickly and he didn't have time to get more things out of Zhao Xiangbo's mouth.

    The last few stalls are almost all calligraphy, painting and calligraphy, which Zhou Xia is not good at, and Zhao Xiangbo¡¯s main research direction is not in this area.  But Zhou Xia felt that Zhao Xiangbo was better than him no matter what. At the very least, he had seen more authentic products than him, so he didn't care and continued shopping.  Zhou Xia is determined to develop in an all-round way. Calligraphy, painting and calligraphy are the main items of appraisal. How can he do it if he doesn't practice it.

    The two of them stepped forward and took a look. Good guys, there are works by almost all famous artists here.

    It goes without saying that the works of Zhang Daqian, Qi Baishi, Li Keran and other masters are relatively famous in modern times and are the most popular at auctions in the market.  There are also many works by famous masters of the Maritime School of Painting that Donghai people love, such as Wu Changshuo, Ren Bonian, Huang Binhong, Zhao Zhiqian and other famous masters.

    Zhou Xia was dazzled by what he saw. He did not expect to find the authentic work from this stall. He just wanted to take this opportunity to dig out as many treasures as possible from Zhao Xiangbo.  Even if it is knowledge he already knows, it can be regarded as reviewing the past and learning new things. Anyway, he will not suffer any disadvantages.

    It was getting late, and the stall owners were packing up their things and preparing to retreat.

    Zhou Xia was holding the "Tea Tasting Picture" signed by Zhang Tang Yin in her hand, and was discussing Tang Bohu's style characteristics and anecdotes about Tang Bohu himself with Zhao Xiangbo.  As for the painting itself, if you ignore the missing parts, you can feel that it has some meaning, like a close-up shot.  In the painting, an elegant man is sitting firmly under the pine trees in the wilderness, with all kinds of cups and utensils on the coffee table beside him. He is enjoying a meal while listening to the piano girl playing the piano. There is also a little tea boy making tea behind the stone.  Zhou Xia felt that the fine brushwork technique was quite acceptable.

    But once it fell into Tang Bohu's estimation, the painting immediately seemed to be of low quality. It was obviously a copy, and the level was not particularly high.

    With this kind of work, neither Zhou Xia nor Zhao Xiangbo have any desire to explore the work itself.

    The stall owner was closing the stall. Zhou Xia flipped through it casually and found an unfinished work. He only used a pen to roughly outline the outline, and the outline was very concise.  It can be seen that the owner of the work did not intend to draw many things on it.  Moreover, this work has no inscription and no bell seal, but according to Zhou Xia's first impression, the paper looks like it has been on paper for hundreds of years. It is not well preserved and has been eroded by time in many places.  Mark of.  Before Zhou Xia had time to take a closer look, he heard the system prompt, "A precious cultural relic was found. It is recommended to collect it."

    This was like pie in the sky and almost knocked Zhou Xia unconscious.

    There is no doubt that the precious cultural relic prompted by the system should be the unfinished work in his hand.

    Seeing that the stall owner was about to close the stall and drive people away, Zhou Xia had no time to do a more detailed appraisal, and had only one thought in his mind, to quickly take down the painting.

    Zhou Xia also quickly asked the system to conduct another appraisal to carefully confirm whether the precious cultural relic was the unfinished work in his hand.

    If you make a mistake due to a moment of negligence?He just missed the opportunity to collect this precious cultural relic, but he will regret it for the rest of his life.

    "This work was created in 1644 AD." The system immediately gave an identification conclusion.

    Zhou Xia was overjoyed and said in her heart, this is right!

    AD 1644 should be the seventeenth year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, that is, the year when the Ming Dynasty collapsed. This unfinished work should be inextricably linked to the demise of the Ming Dynasty, so it was identified by the system as  Precious cultural relics.  As for the more specific and precise reason, Zhou Xia still doesn't understand it, and he doesn't have time to figure it out.

    "Boss, how do you sell Tang Bohu's "Tea Tasting Picture"?" After Zhou Xia determined that the precious cultural relic was this unfinished work, he immediately put it down, and then picked up the one he just saw, which was signed Tang Bohu's "Tasting Tea".  Tea Picture", he asked the boss who was closing the stall.

    The boss looked up and immediately replied, "Five thousand!"

    "Five thousand, so cheap!" Zhou Xia pretended to be surprised and said, "At least it is an authentic work of Tang Bohu. No matter how sluggish the market is, it must be worth hundreds of thousands!"

    Zhao Xiangbo laughed secretly beside him, thinking that Zhou Xia is really a loser.

    The boss also heard the teasing in his words, and knew that this was his strategy and a prelude to bargaining. He had seen such things many times, so it was not surprising. Instead, he smiled and said to Zhou Xia, "If  If you really like this painting and think the price is less, I won¡¯t object if you give me hundreds of thousands.¡±

    Zhou Xiaxin said that this guy is very cunning!  Afraid of taking responsibility afterwards and not telling the truth, I will not even talk about Tang Bohu's paintings, but only talk about the things you like. These profiteers are indeed not fuel-efficient lamps.

    "From the look on your face, boss, this shouldn't be Tang Bohu's original work!" Zhou Xia muttered, and then he loudly said to the stall owner, "In that case, boss, please sell it to me cheaper! I just moved into a new house, and the wall  There are empty paintings everywhere on the street. Paintings by famous artists like Tang Bohu are just right to take home and hang on the wall. When others look at them, they think, oh, these are Tang Bohu¡¯s works. Not to mention anything else, just hearing the words Tang Bohu makes them feel  So much face."

    Zhou Xia¡¯s words were so vulgar that Zhao Xiangbo felt ashamed for him and subconsciously stayed away from him.

    The middle-aged stall owner was very happy and asked him enthusiastically, "How many do you want? If you want more, I can give you a discount and the stall will be closed immediately."

    Zhou Xiaxin says this is okay?  Doesn¡¯t this force me to buy a few more paintings and actually take them home and hang them on the wall?

    "I'll pick and choose. There's one by Zhang Daqian, one by Qi Baishi, and one by Pan Tianshou. These four are pretty much the same." Zhou Xia picked at random. As soon as he finished speaking, he jumped up and started to sigh, "Bah, look at me.  This mouth and this number are not auspicious at all, I have to find another one."

    Zhou Xia seemed to have accidentally found the unfinished work that he had taken a fancy to before. He chuckled and said, "Hey, this is good. After all, I have also studied painting for a few years. If I continue to paint according to this, I will be able to paint quickly.  Complete a real painting. Frame it and hang it in your study. Boss, please give me a price!"

    The boss only paid attention to the few signed paintings picked by Zhou Xia. He could not tell clearly about the paintings on his stall. They were all wholesaled for a few hundred yuan each.  Hearing that he wanted to buy these paintings to hang on the wall didn't count, but now he wanted to be arty and make his own paintings to frame and hang on the wall. He almost spit out blood.  This guy is really good at choosing. If he chooses such a simple painting and completes it, it will be considered his own.  How narcissistic is this guy?

    No matter what, business has to be done, even if the target is a narcissistic, arrogant, moneyless, and arrogant woman.  Although the stall owner despised Zhou Xia from the bottom of his heart, he still had a smile on his face and praised him for his vision and taste, and his painting skills must be very high.

    Of course, he didn¡¯t forget to kill him, and immediately offered him a price of 10,000 yuan.

    Zhou Xia now fully showed that he pretends to be polite but has no money in his pocket, and he bargains enthusiastically with the stall owner.  Zhou Xia felt that the other paintings were not worth even 1,000 yuan, let alone 1,000 yuan.  But he also knows that even imitations require costs, and it is normal for a piece to cost several hundred yuan.

    In the end, Zhou Xia successfully cut down half of the price and settled the deal for 5,000 yuan.

    In fact, with Zhou Xia's level of bargaining, it was perfectly fine to cut a few more cuts, but he was unwilling to waste any more time and energy and completed the transaction as soon as possible. The most important thing was to get this unfinished work.  of.

    After the negotiation was completed, Zhou Xia immediately took out 5,000 yuan from his bag and handed it to the stall owner. Then he put away the paintings he bought. He did not forget to be polite to the boss, "The boss is really nice. If I take it back  If the effect looks good after the home decoration is framed and hung on the wall, I will come back again in the future.¡±

    The stall owner said yes with a smile and praised him for being heroic, educated and well-educated.

    Zhou XiaKnowing that he was not sincere in what he said, how could someone who knows what is fake and buys fake ones speak so well?  But Zhou Xia didn't mind because he successfully got what he wanted.

    Sure enough, after the transaction between the two parties was completed, Zhou Xia heard the sweet voice of the system in his mind, "Congratulations on successfully collecting the third precious cultural relic."

    Zhao Xiangbo has been watching. Although he could not understand, he did not say anything to stop Zhou Xia. Instead, he thought in his heart, what kind of trouble is Zhou Xia going to make with this performance?  I'll have to interrogate him later.
