Song Yumei rolled her eyes at Xia Zhi snappily: "What do you know?"
"This woman is really ugly!" Xia Zhi was a little unconvinced, "If you want a face or a body, I can draw it better."
"It's a pity that your surname is not Tang!" Song Yumei snorted and said.
"Eh? Was this painting really painted by Tang Bohu? "Xia Zhi suddenly asked curiously.
"Nonsense." She was a little angry now, because she had already guessed that Xia Chen had used a disgraceful method to take this painting. Of course, she did not see how he did it, but from what those people said just now, wasn't their encounter the same as what happened to her bodyguard that day?
Xia Chen had a confused look on his face as he muttered to himself, "Could it be that Tang Bohu can also live for a few hundred years and still hasn't died?"
"Is there something wrong with your head?" Song Yumei looked at Xia Chen, "Tang Bohu died a long time ago!"
Saying that, Song Yumei suddenly thought of something, and looked at Xia Chen in surprise, continuing to ask: "Don't tell me you don't even know who Tang Bohu is?"
"Of course I know who Tang Bohu is!" Xia Chen stared at Song Yumei with dissatisfaction, and also wanted to beat her up, "I just don't know who the Tang Bohu who drew this painting is."
Ye Meng Ying, who was listening at the side in a daze, could not help but ask, "Xia, what do you mean by that? Why can't I understand? "
"Oh, beautiful sister, that Tang Bohu has been dead for hundreds of years, but this painting has only been painted for a few years, yet it is said that it was painted by Tang Bohu, so I am very curious as to who painted this painting." Xia Xia explained to Ye Mengying.
Xia Zhi's voice was quite loud. Hearing his words, everyone present turned to look at him.
Song Yumei's expression also changed slightly, "You said this is a fake painting?"
"I didn't say it was fake!" Xia Chen had an innocent expression, "I'm just saying that this painting wasn't drawn by that Tang Bohu who died hundreds of years ago."
"Young man, don't speak carelessly. If you say something wrong, you will have to take responsibility." A sullen voice was heard as Qi Jinshi walked over.
"Old man, you're the one who's talking nonsense. I haven't settled the score with you yet!" Xia Chen stared at Qi Jinshi in dissatisfaction, "This lousy painting isn't even worth 50 yuan, yet you actually sold it to my wife for 50 million. Do you need a beating?"
"Don't slander me!" Qi Jinshi was extremely angry, "Who in the capital doesn't know that I, Qi Jinshi, have never had any fake goods here? For Miss Song's sake, I won't hold you accountable for your slander. However, my auction no longer welcomes you. Please leave now! "
"Let me see." Song Yumei said to Xia Zhi at this time.
"Charming wife, this painting is really worthless. Don't give him any money." Xia Xia said to Song Yumei as he handed the painting to her.
Ye Meng Ying was a bit speechless on the side. How long has it been since he called her his wife?
At this moment, Song Yumei was not in the mood to pursue the matter of addressing Xia Chen. She was carefully examining the painting in her hands, and the others in the room were also staring at Song Yumei, waiting for her conclusion.
Qi Jinshi was also looking at Song Yumei. On the surface, he looked calm, but upon closer inspection, one could see that he was actually very unnatural right now.
The room was very quiet. In just a few minutes, it felt like a long century to some people. After a few minutes, Song Yumei finally raised her head, kept the painting, and handed it over to Qi Jinshi: "Elder Qi, I believe you just took the wrong painting, please help me change it."
The moment Song Yumei said this, the room immediately exploded like a frying pan.
"Huh?"
"What?" "Is this for real?"
"It can't be?"
"Since Miss Song has said so, then it must be fake!"
"Are you kidding me? I've always believed in this place. Could it be that we bought a fake one as well?"
"Maybe I really just took the wrong one, don't worry..."
"Miss Song, please help us identify the real deal as well!"
"That's right, Miss Song, please help us identify it as well!"
The crowd clamored as they grabbed the items they had just bought and rushed over.
"Hey, don't bother my wife. I'll help you guys take a look." However, Xia Chen stopped these people, and then, regardless of whether they were willing or not, he snatched the things in their hands and began to appraise them.
"Oh, you've been making this inkstone for less than five years …"
"This vase of yours is quite old. It must be more than ten years old …"
"Your painting is quite beautiful, it's worth a hundred yuan …"
It would have been better if they didn't appraise it in the summer, but once they did, everyone realized that if what Xia said was the truth, then none of the items in their hands were real. All of them were fake!
"Don't listen to his nonsense, he's just a brat who doesn't know anything. What I have here are all real, all real!" Qi Jinshi shouted angrily, "Men, chase this brat out!"
"Wait!" Song Yumei coldly followed up, "Elder Qi, don't be in such a hurry to chase him away, let me take a look first."
"That's right, let Miss Song take a look first!" Everyone echoed in unison.
Seeing that the crowd was excited, Qi Jinshi had no choice but to let these people give the things they had just bought to Song Yumei for appraisal.
She had only appraised a few of them, but the result was the same as what Xia Chen had said. These were all fakes, some of them could be considered high quality fakes, while some were simply rough made, as long as someone who knew the ropes took a look, they would be able to see the problem.
"Elder Qi, I just thought that you might have just taken the wrong painting, but now, I realize that things don't seem to be that way." Song Yumei raised her head and looked at Qi Jinshi, "I'm just a little puzzled, Elder Qi, it wasn't easy for you to build up your current reputation over the past twenty years, why did you destroy it so easily?"
Song Yumei's words were considered polite, but the others had already started to curse angrily.
"Qi Jinshi, we've always believed you in vain, you actually lied to us like this!"
"Qi Jinshi, you're a liar!"
"Damn liar, return our money. The one I bought last time was definitely fake as well. It cost me 20 million!"
"Qi Jinshi, if you know what's good for you, then return the money immediately. Otherwise, I won't be polite to you!"
At first, Qi Jinshi seemed to be a little ashamed, but it quickly turned into anger. In the end, he suddenly shouted angrily, "All of you, shut up!"
Qi Jinshi's sudden shout had truly stunned everyone. For a moment, the room had truly become a little quiet.
"So what if I'm a liar? So what if I lied to you? Did I say that it had to be the real deal when I was auctioning it? You guys wanted to buy it, what does it have to do with me? "Qi Jinshi sneered as he looked at the crowd," Since I've been exposed by you guys today, I won't be able to continue this auction anymore. It doesn't matter, I don't expect you guys to participate in my auction anymore, but if you want me to refund you, that's impossible! "
With a cold snort, Qi Jinshi continued, "Not only will I not refund your money, you must also pay for today's auction, not a single cent less!"
