Daoist Tai Hua and Su Changyu completely fell into a state of doubt.
They didn't expect that this painting could actually be sold for tens of thousands of gold taels.
Even though there were all sorts of restrictions, it didn't sound like it would be too difficult.
"In that case, if this painting doesn't have any people on it, how much can it sell for?"
Su Changyu swallowed his saliva and stuttered.
The latter scrutinized the painting carefully.
Then, he said.
"First of all, if it's an authentic work, it won't be a problem to sell it for 5,000 taels of gold. Secondly, the artistic conception of this painting is very beautiful. It can be considered one of the best works of Householder Qing Lian. However, the problem lies with this person.
"But the problem is that if you collect this kind of painting, people who don't know might think that you are in love with the person. So often, paintings of famous people are worth more with time. To put it bluntly, after a few hundred years, this painting will probably be more valuable."
"For the current situation, it's not very good. Fortunately, I didn't paint the whole face, only the side profile. If there's no person, it won't be difficult to sell it for ten thousand taels of gold. Hey, Upper Immortal, the person in the picture looks so much like you?"
Shi Liangjin spoke logically. At this point, he couldn't help but look at Su Changyu and feel that it was very similar.
"No, no, please don't talk nonsense."
Su Changyu hurriedly denied it while his heart was bleeding.
Why did he have to pretend to be impressive for no reason? If he had known earlier, he would have asked his junior brother to draw a picture of the scenery.
I really have nothing better to do.
Su Changyu burst into tears.
However, Daoist Tai Hua felt even worse.
He could tell at a glance that the person in the painting was Su Changyu.
When he received the painting, he knew that it was drawn by Ye Ping for Su Changyu, but he didn't expect to lose 5,000 taels of gold because of this guy.
Daoist Tai Hua's heart was no longer just bleeding.
Right now, he wanted to eat someone alive.
Sensing Daoist Tai Hua's resentment, Su Changyu stopped talking and simply stood at the side in silence.
He knew that if he dared to speak now, he would probably be eaten.
But there was nothing he could do about it. How would he know that apart from having great talent in the Sword Dao, Little Junior Brother was also great at drawing?
Two hours later.
Shopkeeper Shi Liangjin invited three appraisers.
Moreover, they specialized in appraising paintings.
After studying it carefully for four hours, the three of them finally gave an evaluation of it being a genuine product.
After learning that it was genuine, Daoist Tai Hua and Su Changyu were even more overwhelmed.
A painting could be sold for five thousand taels of gold.
This … is too exaggerated, right?
The annual income of the Qingyun Dao Sect was 20 taels of gold.
Two hundred taels in ten years.
A hundred years would be equivalent to two thousand gold taels.
It would take two hundred and fifty years to earn that much money.
This was f * cking outrageous.
"What a pity, what a pity. If this portrait did not have this person on it, its value would be doubled."
"That's right. The sunset glow of the Cloudfall Peak is such a beautiful scene. If it were to be accompanied by a suitable poem, it could be sold for a sky-high price. However, with the addition of this person, it seems a bit of a failure."
The two appraisers murmured to themselves, looking a little regretful.
After he said that, Su Changyu felt even more upset while Daoist Tai Hua's eyes turned red.
If Su Changyu wasn't in the portrait, it would be at least twice as expensive.
\ 'This damned sinful disciple.\'
"You can\'t say that. Have you guys felt that Householder Qing Lian\'s state of mind has changed again? This painting seems to be a scene, but it actually contains an indescribable artistic conception. In particular, this person is even more suitable for the scene. He\'s looking up at the stars and there\'s also a kind of Sword Dao charm in his brushwork. However, I haven\'t practiced swordsmanship before, so I dare not comment on Householder Qing Lian\'s painting."
Another appraiser said, thinking that the painting was different from the others.
However, no matter what, there was one thing that was true. It was indeed a little worthless.
"Now that you mention it, it really does have such an artistic conception."
"Householder Qing Lian is indeed worthy of being called Householder Qing Lian. He\'s just a mortal, but he can cause the entire Jin Nation to go crazy over him. He\'s really an immortal."
Everyone praised and then looked at Shi Liangjin.
"We have completed the appraisal, it\'s genuine."
The appraisal was completed. It was genuine.
Shi Liangjin couldn\'t hide his smile after hearing the news.
"Thank you very much."
Shi Liangjin was overjoyed and asked the handyman to send them away. He also gave them a sum of money as an appraisal fee.
After sending them away, Shi Liangjin looked at Daoist Tai Hua with joy.
"Since it\'s genuine, I\'ll get someone to retrieve the banknotes now. Exalted Immortals, please wait for a moment."
Shi Liangjin wanted to calm down, but he really couldn\'t.
The painting would definitely be more valuable in his hands. It was a great deal.
However, at this moment, Daoist Tai Hua shook his head.
"I\'ve changed my mind, I\'m not selling it."
Daoist Tai Hua was clearly trying to raise the price.
\ 'Who is he?\'
\ 'The Sect Leader of the Qingyun Dao Sect.\'
\ 'He\'s shameless.\'
"Exalted Immortal, what do you mean by this!?!"
Shi Liangjin was a little confused.
He didn\'t understand, but when he saw that Daoist Tai Hua was trying to raise the price, Shi Liangjin felt a little depressed.
"Exalted Immortal, I understand what you mean, but let me tell you the truth, Householder Qing Lian\'s painting is quite valuable, but the problem is that we have to find a buyer. It depends on the person. If it\'s someone who likes it, 100,000 taels of gold won\'t be a problem, but if it\'s someone who doesn\'t like it, such as you, would you be willing to spend one tael of gold to buy it?"
Shi Liangjin tried to persuade Daoist Tai Hua.
When Daoist Tai Hua heard this, he felt that it did make sense.
To be honest, he wouldn\'t even spend one tael of silver, let alone one tael of gold.
However, Daoist Tai Hua was not a fool.
"Shopkeeper, there should be more than one shop in Baiguo City. Name a final price, I\'ll sell it if it\'s suitable."
Daoist Tai Hua was good at bargaining.
His time was not valuable, and at most, he would just make a few more trips.
When Shi Liangjin heard this, he couldn\'t help but smile bitterly.
"Exalted Immortal, stop fooling around. Although I\'m not the only shop in Baiguo City, there are rules in every trade. You\'re the first one who came to me, and the item is very valuable too. Even if others want to steal my business, they have to think about whether it\'s worth offending their peers for a painting."
"However, I\'ll also give you a fair price of 6,000 taels of gold. That\'s the highest I can offer. I really can\'t offer a higher price."
Shi Liangjin said with a sullen expression.
6,000 taels of gold?
Su Changyu was dumbfounded.
Daoist Tai Hua was also shocked, but on the surface, he remained calm and collected.
He did not answer.
He pondered for a long time.
At the end of the day, he still wanted to continue raising the price.
However, at this moment, Su Changyu suddenly spoke up.
"Sell! 6,000 taels of gold, pay me now and I\'ll sell it now. "
Su Changyu was impatient.
6,000 taels of gold.
\ 'It\'s not 6,000 copper coins.\'
\ 'You\'re still not selling it?\'
\ 'When should I sell it?\'
\ 'One shouldn\'t be too greedy.
\ 'What can\'t I do with 6,000 taels of gold?\'
Shi Liangjin was afraid that the deal would fall through.
Su Changyu was even more afraid.
"Okay, please wait a moment."
Hearing Su Changyu\'s words, Shi Liangjin didn\'t waste any time and simply asked someone to withdraw the money.
"No, I\'ll add another 666 taels of gold. Otherwise, I\'ll go to another ancient city."
However, Daoist Tai Hua continued to add more money.
\ 'Add another 666 taels of gold?\'
The amount was not large. Shi Liangjin gritted his teeth and immediately asked someone to handle it, for fear that Daoist Tai Hua would increase the price again.
A thick stack of banknotes appeared in his hand and he handed it to Daoist Tai Hua.
Daoist Tai Hua also asked Su Changyu to hand the painting to Shi Liangjin.
It was perfect.
