Chapter 80 The Three Tang Bohu Calligraphy and Paintings Worth Hundreds of Millions Are All Fakes
Even though he and Zhou Wanrou were not in that relationship, Hong Yu still felt very unhappy about being threatened.
Wu Qingfeng had threatened him once before.
This time he came again. It was true that the tiger did not show off its power and treated him as a sick cat.
"Who do you think you are? I have nothing to do with Wanrou. Do you need to talk nonsense here? Get out of here."
Hong Yu responded unceremoniously.
If the other party doesn't give him face, then he doesn't need to give him face.
This is Hong Yu's character.
Hearing this, Wu Qingfeng's face suddenly darkened.
It’s okay to be scornfully and scolded by Zhou Wanrou. After all, she is the eldest lady of the Zhou family and is not easy to mess with.
But now, a poor loser dressed in shabby clothes dares to speak to him like this. Doesn't it mean that he doesn't take him as the eldest son of the Wu family seriously?
He glared at Hong Yu fiercely and threatened again:
"Good boy, you have the guts, don't think that with Zhou Wanrou's support, I won't dare to do anything to you."
"If you have the ability, just wait and see. I will let you know the consequences of offending me today."
Hong Yu chuckled and said without fear:
"You're welcome, but I would like to advise you that once you do something in life, you won't even have the chance to regret it."
Wu Qingfeng sneered: "You are the only one who threatens me. How can I be afraid of you, a stinky loser?"
Hong Yu said calmly: "In that case, then you give it a try."
Being threatened again, Wu Qingfeng was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "Boy, you forced me to do this."
With that said, he took out his mobile phone, opened WeChat, and sent a message to one of his friends named Dao Ye.
The content of the message roughly means that I met a stupid young man at the antique market, and I hope Mr. Dao can call someone to come over and help him.
After sending it, he glared at Hong Yu: "Boy, it's too late for you to beg for mercy. Otherwise, you won't be able to leave the antique market today."
Hong Yu didn't bother to pay attention to this clown, and didn't even raise his eyelids to look at him.
Being ignored, Wu Qingfeng was even more angry, with anger burning in his chest. If Zhou Wanrou hadn't been there, he would have wanted to slap Hong Yu hard right now.
What kind of thing dares to show off in front of him?
At the same time, Zhou Wanrou, who was listening to Xu Shaoan's explanation of Tang Bohu's calligraphy and painting, vaguely heard the quarrel between Hong Yu and Wu Qingfeng, looked back and asked:
"What are you two muttering about?"
"Wu Qingfeng, tell me the truth, are you saying something threatening to my friend again?"
Zhou Wanrou glared at Wu Qingfeng.
Of course Wu Qingfeng would not admit it, and quickly shook his head and said:
"Ms. Zhou, don't get me wrong. I just had a brief chat with your friend."
Zhou Wanrou didn't quite believe it and asked Xiang Hongyu: "Xiaoyu, is this true?"
Hong Yu nodded and said yes.
He is not in the habit of snitching yet.
I don't like being protected by a woman either.
Since the man surnamed Wu is so blind and insists on causing trouble for him, he doesn't mind taking some time to teach him a lesson.
"oh!"
Zhou Wanrou nodded and didn't think too much. She focused her attention on the paintings and calligraphy of Tang Bohu hanging on the wall again. She seemed to like them very much.
"Xiaoyu, do you have a different opinion than Xu Shao on these paintings and calligraphy of Tang Bohu?"
"If I want to buy it, which painting do you think is better?"
Zhou Wanrou asked, wanting to hear Hong Yu's opinion.
"Oh? So Mr. Hong also knows calligraphy and painting?"
Xu Shaoan looked at Hong Yu with some surprise, and became more and more interested in Hong Yu's identity.
After all, being able to resist the temptation of 100 million yuan is enough to prove that Hong Yu is not an ordinary person.
Hong Yu smiled and said, "I just know a little bit."
Zhou Wanrou interrupted: "Xiaoyu, you are too humble."
"In my opinion, your level of treasure appraisal is as good as Mr. Xu's."
Similar to me? After hearing this, Xu Shaoan felt unhappy instantly.
He felt that Zhou Wanrou underestimated his treasure appraisal skills, and comparing him with Hong Yu was simply insulting him.
He was born with a golden eye, and he also studied under a famous teacher, and his treasure appraisal skills have already reached the master level.
Even some so-called archaeological experts are far behind him in level.
What's more, for a young man like Hong Yu, there is a huge difference.
Before Xu Shaoan could question, Wu Qingfeng, the loser next to him, began to question him first.
"Ms. Zhou, are you kidding me? Is this guy's level of treasure appraisal comparable to that of Xu Shao?"
Wu Qingfeng pointed at Hong Yu, his words full of contempt.
Wu Qingfeng's voice was not quiet at all. Many antique collectors who came to attend the exchange meeting heard it and subconsciously looked over.
When I saw Xu Shaoan present, I was shocked.
"Isn't the Young Master Wu mentioned in Mr. Xu referring to Xu Shao'an?"
"Really or not, can that kid's level of treasure appraisal be comparable to that of Mr. Xu?"
“I really don’t know how high the world is.”
"Isn't this bragging?"
Everyone whispered, not believing what Zhou Wanrou said at all.
After all, in the Jiangzhou antique world, Xu Shaoan's treasure appraisal skills are obvious to everyone, and he is at the level of a master.
Many of them have collections that they asked Master Xu to help identify.
Because Xu Shaoan's words often represent the most authoritative certification.
As these discussions spread, the eyes of the entire hall suddenly turned towards Hong Yu.
In an instant, Hong Yu became the focus of the audience.
There were more and more comments, and most of them questioned Hong Yu.
Being ridiculed and scorned inexplicably made Hong Yu feel very unnatural. He smiled bitterly in his heart and said: "This little aunt really likes to make trouble for nothing! Can't you just keep a low profile for me?"
Zhou Wanrou felt very uncomfortable when she heard that many people in the hall were questioning Hong Yu's ability to identify treasures.
He immediately said categorically: "Who said I was joking? What I said is true."
"Even my grandfather always praised Xiaoyu's treasure appraisal skills as being comparable to those of a master treasure appraiser."
"He is the only one who is a treasure appraiser!"
Wu Qingfeng sneered and said: "Miss Zhou, your joke is getting bigger and bigger. If he is a treasure appraiser, how can Mr. Xu be the ancestor of the treasure appraiser?"
"Ha ha!"
A series of roars of laughter suddenly erupted at the scene.
Zhou Wanrou rolled her eyes at Wu Qingfeng, thinking that this guy was really annoying, so she didn't bother to defend herself and said, "If you don't believe me, I'm too lazy to explain to you."
"Miss Zhou, I think you feel guilty!"
Wu Qingfeng said with a sinister smile, not intending to give up just yet.
"Who feels guilty?"
Zhou Wanrou said in a deep voice.
Wu Qingfeng wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Xu Shaoan.
"Hey, Mr. Wu, don't be rude to Miss Zhou."
"Yes, Mr. Xu."
Wu Qingfeng immediately closed his mouth and stepped aside.
The Wu family relies on the Xu family for its development, so he naturally obeys Xu Shaoan's words.
Xu Shaoan turned to look at Zhou Wanrou and said with a smile:
"Ms. Zhou, if others don't believe what you say, I still believe it."
"Even if I don't believe you, Mr. Zhou, I absolutely believe you."
"Mr. Zhou is the president of our Jiangling County Antiques Association. Since he recognizes Mr. Hong, it is enough to prove that Mr. Hong's level of treasure appraisal is beyond doubt."
"Everyone, please stop questioning Mr. Hong."
Xu Shaoan said to everyone in the exhibition hall.
All of a sudden, those who questioned Hong Yu honestly shut their mouths.
Who dares not to give face to the young master of the Xu family?
The exhibition hall became extremely quiet.
"Thank you very much for your trust."
Zhou Wanrou's expression softened a lot, and her impression of Xu Shaoan became a little better.
There is no way, Xu Shaoan is too good at pretending, and the side he shows to outsiders is always the image of a humble gentleman.
This kind of gentleman image is most popular with women.
"Ms. Zhou, you're welcome."
Xu Shaoan waved his hand, turned his eyes, and looked towards Hong Yu, with a half-smile on his face.
"Mr. Hong, I really didn't expect that your level of treasure appraisal is so high. I'm disrespectful."
Xu Shaoan bowed his hand towards Hong Yu with a very good attitude.
However, Hong Yu is not Zhou Wanrou, who is so easily confused by Xu Shaoan's appearance.
In fact, he could tell at a glance that Xu Shaoan was not telling the truth.
He received the inheritance from the Wuji Immortal Sect, and the inheritance included some profound physiognomy.
It is said that physiognomy has reached the highest level, and you can basically know what the other person is thinking.
Hong Yu hasn't had time to study physiognomy yet, but relying on Wuji Immortal Doctor's inherited memory, he can still tell whether a person is telling the truth or not.
"I didn't realize that this guy is still a hypocrite."
Hong Yu glanced at Xu Shaoan and muttered.
However, he didn't pay much attention to it. After all, the other party still gave him face on the surface. He also gave his hand to the other party to give him face: "Young Master Xu, I've said too much."
Xu Shaoan said with a smile: "Mr. Hong, please stop being humble. There is a saying that is too modest, but it is tantamount to pride."
Hong Yu smiled helplessly.
Xu Shaoan added: "Speaking of which, I have been in Jiangzhou for so many years, but I have never met a young treasure appraiser."
"I'm lucky enough to meet Mr. Hong today, how about we discuss it?"
"Just think of it as adding some color to today's treasure appraisal conference."
Hong Yu looked startled, knowing that Xu Shaoan was a drunkard who didn't care about drinking.
It must be that the sparring was fake, but that he wanted to show off in front of everyone, compare him to others, and show off his abilities was the real thing.
However, Hong Yu was not a competitive person, so he waved his hand and said: "Master Xu, let's forget it. I won't show off my skills in treasure appraisal, so as not to make others laugh."
Xu Shaoan wanted to use Hong Yu as a stepping stone, step on Hong Yu's shoulders, and let Zhou Wanrou and everyone present know that his level of treasure appraisal was not comparable to everyone.
So, how could he let Hong Yu not compete?
He winked at the rich second-generation followers around him.
Wu Qingfeng and other second-generation rich people instantly understood what to do.
Mr. Xu is trying to show off some color to people named Hong!
Just what they all wanted.
Anyway, they didn't like Hong Yu.
Wu Qingfeng was the first to stand up and mocked Hong Yu: "You have some self-awareness. You know that you will lose miserably if you compete with Mr. Xu, so you surrendered in advance."
Immediately afterwards, a second-generation rich man surnamed Yang also said: "Boy, since you don't dare to compare, don't blindly say how good your treasure appraisal skills are in the future. People who don't know, really think you are
He is a master."
At the same time, another rich second generation mocked Zhou Wanrou: "Miss Zhou, this is the so-called treasure appraiser in your mouth. It's nothing more than that. When I saw Mr. Xu, I was so scared that I wet my pants and didn't even dare to compete.
.”
Some people watching the fun at the scene didn't like Hong Yu, and they all started shouting:
"I thought there was another young treasure appraiser in Jiangzhou, but who knew he was a coward?"
"When I met Mr. Xu, I didn't even dare to fart."
"I don't know what Mr. Zhou's eyes are like, but he actually calls this coward a treasure appraiser. It's an insult to the word master."
"..."
There was an endless stream of ridicule and abuse.
Zhou Wanrou's face turned red when she heard this, and her stomach was full of anger. She wanted to refute, but she didn't know how to refute.
After all, Hong Yu did reject the competition proposed by Xu Shaoan.
"Xiaoyu, why don't you compete with Mr. Xu? Let these guys see your level, so that they don't look down on you."
Zhou Wanrou was very competitive and didn't want others to misunderstand that she was bragging, so she asked Hong Yu.
Hong Yu is not a saint, and he can do it without caring about other people's opinions.
After hearing the ridicule from everyone present, he naturally felt very unhappy.
In this case, it doesn't hurt to compare.
Ask all the guys present to shut their mouths and keep their ears quiet.
"Okay, Mr. Xu, how do you want to compare?"
Hong Yu looked at Xu Shaoan and agreed.
Xu Shaoan's mouth showed a smile of successful conspiracy, and he said with a smile:
"Today, a treasure appraisal exchange meeting is being held in the hall. Many friends have brought their collections that they have treasured for many years to the exhibition. It is inevitable that there will be some fakes among them. We will compete today to see who can find all the collections in today's exhibits first.
There are three fakes, whoever wins first, what do you think, Mr. Hong?"
Hong Yu shrugged and said with a smile: "Of course it's no problem."
"Okay, let's start now."
Xu Shaoan said confidently.
As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Yu waved his hand and said, "Okay, the game is over."
Xu Shaoan frowned, "What? Mr. Hong is going to regret it?"
He thought Hong Yu didn't want to play anymore.
Hong Yu shrugged and said: "Master Xu, you probably didn't understand what I meant. I mean, I have found three fakes, so the game is naturally over."
As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene was shocked, and everyone looked at Hong Yu with wide eyes.
Just found it?
Isn't this too fast?
Or is this guy bragging?
Xu Shaoan's face also looked slightly unhappy, and he felt that Hong Yu was deliberately causing trouble.
"Boy, you will die if you don't brag!"
The more Wu Qingfeng looked at Hong Yu, the more unhappy he became, and asked: "You said you found three fakes in the exhibits. If you have the ability, just tell me, where are the three fakes?"
"Yes, speak out if you can, don't just talk."
Everyone was unhappy with Hong Yu and felt that this guy was too good at showing off.
Hong Yu pointed to the three calligraphy and paintings of Tang Bohu on the wall and said lightly: "Aren't these three calligraphy and paintings of Tang Bohu fake?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone at the scene was even more surprised.
He looked at Hong Yu in disbelief.
Because these three Tang Bohu calligraphy and paintings belong to no one else but Xu Shaoan himself.
It has been verified by many parties and is undoubtedly authentic.
They had all seen it before and thought it was genuine.
Now, Hong Yu actually said it was a lie, how could they not be shocked.
Even Zhou Wanrou was shocked.
Just now, she had always believed that these three calligraphy and paintings were real, and she wanted to buy one.
Xu Shaoan's face also darkened at this moment.
What Hong Yu said was undoubtedly challenging his authority.
If all his own treasures are fake, who will dare to trust his treasure appraisal ability in the future?
"You brat, do you know whose calligraphy and painting this is?"
"You dare to say it's fake?"
Before Xu Shaoan could get angry, Wu Qingfeng scolded him: "I can tell you, this is Xu Shao's own collection. Xu Shao is the vice president of our Jiangzhou Antiques Association and studied under He Rongguang, the treasure appraiser of Yanjing. What do you think?
Can his collection be fake?"
"That's right, kid, you've exposed your secrets through pretense. Why don't you apologize to Mr. Xu now?"
"Apologise, you must apologize!"
The rich second generation were clamoring.
Even some of the onlookers shouted for Hong Yu to apologize.
"Apologise? Why should I apologize?"
Hong Yu said calmly: "Just because these three calligraphy and paintings are his, Mr. Xu's, can't they be fake?"
"Since when did treasure appraisal only look at people, not things?"
"In the future, if he poops Xu Shaoan, will you think it is an antique?"
"It's really ridiculous."
Uh... everyone was dumbfounded on the spot.
They never expected that someone in Jiangzhou would dare to look down on Xu Shaoan so much.
A little too courageous, right?
Xu Shaoan's face became increasingly gloomy.
Ever since he was young, no one has ever dared to disrespect him in front of him.
Hong Yu is considered the first.
"Xiaoyu, you...are you saying this a little too much?"
Zhou Wanrou also looked at Hong Yu with some horror, and whispered in Hong Yu's ear.
In any case, this Xu Shaoan is the young master of the Xu family and is not so easy to offend.
