    After hearing what Chu Chen said, everyone nodded in agreement. Otherwise, they couldn't think of any other reason to explain why Su Dongpo would write such a poem and painting as a gift to Huang Tingjian before he died.  .  Moreover, judging from the inscriptions and postscripts written by Huang Tingjian, in addition to being extremely sad for Su Dongpo's death, we can also see his dissatisfaction and deep helplessness towards the officialdom in the poem. This can also indirectly prove that the reason why Su Dongpo sent him  This painting should also convey the meaning of his unsuccessful life.  But no matter what the situation was at that time, this painting is indeed a rare masterpiece. What makes Chu Chen feel distressed is that because the painting was not kept well, there are mold spots and holes on the paper, and  It has slightly affected the quality of the painting, but fortunately it's not much, just a little repair.  After Chu Chen carefully appreciated the work, he said: "Mr. Sun, I really like this painting, and its value is higher than that of a snuff bottle." "More expensive than a snuff bottle?" Sun Dayou said with a face full of excitement.  He said in disbelief: "Impossible. You see, this painting has both mildew spots and cavities. How could it be more expensive than a snuff bottle?" Chu Chen smiled slightly and said, "Mold spots and cavities are indeed an influence.  The value of this painting has been greatly reduced, but no matter what, this is an authentic work by Su Dongpo, with Huang Tingjian¡¯s promotion on it. It can be said to be very precious, and it is not easy to preserve it like this after nearly nine hundred years.  "How much is this painting worth?" Sun Dayou asked.  Chu Chen thought about it again and again, but found it difficult to draw a conclusion, so he discussed it with Uncle Wu again.  This situation is actually normal. In fact, very few of Su Dongpo's authentic works have been handed down to this day. It is said that there are only more than 50 pieces left in our country (including more than 10 pieces from the mainland and more than 40 pieces from the treasure island).  A few others spread to Japan, the United States and other countries.  So far, among these collections, only one of Su Dongpo's paintings in China, "Xiaoxiang Bamboo and Stone Pictures", has been certified as authentic by many experts. Therefore, the painting in front of you is the original painting of Su Dongpo before his death.  One can imagine how valuable it is.  Seeing the solemn expressions of Chu Chen and Uncle Wu, Sun Dayou also knew that his painting must be very complicated. He frowned and thought about it. After seeing that Chu Chen and Uncle Wu had finished their discussion, he quickly asked  Said: "Boss Chu, do you know how much this painting of mine is worth?" Chu Chen was slightly startled.  Then he answered truthfully: "It should be eight figures." Although Sun Dayou was already mentally prepared, he was still shocked by what Chu Chen said. In fact, the price was very normal. Let's talk about Su Dongpo's "  "Xiaoxiang Bamboo and Stone Picture", when the buyer bought it in 1961, he had already spent 5,000 yuan.  You have to remember that this was 1961, and five thousand yuan was already a huge sum of money.  Now, this painting is worth tens of millions, which is totally what it should be.  After a while, Sun Dayou came back to his senses, rubbed his wet hands, and said: "In that case, Boss Chu. As long as you give me 10 million, this painting and the snuff bottle will be yours."  "Hearing this, Chu Chen was surprised and waved his hands repeatedly: "Mr. Sun, this can't be done. If I buy something worth tens of millions for ten million, anyone who knows it will stab me in the back!  " Sun Dayou said with a smile: "Boss Chu, although I understand antiques, I don't understand the market of antiques, but I have heard others say that I can make tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands for tens of hundreds of dollars.  Yes, it should be a lot. In comparison, our transaction today is nothing." Chu Chen said with laughter and tears: "Mr. Sun, the mistakes you mentioned happened without your knowledge.  We are buying and selling now! " "I am willing to let you pick up the leaks, and no one else can do it!" Sun Dayou waved his hand.  Chu Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Well, Mr. Sun, I think you'd better discuss it with your son first!" "I have the final say on my things, so just tell me whether it's okay or not!" Sun Day said firmly.  If it was a normal business, Chu Chen wouldn't think much about paying the price if the other party was distracted. But in the current situation, if Chu Chen really had to agree, it would go against his heart.  A very immoral thing.  Chu Chen has always felt that character determines luck. The reason why he keeps picking things up now is because he has never done anything bad. If his character fails, he may not have as good luck in the future.  Chu Chen said sincerely: "Mr. Sun, listen to me, I really want this painting, but I'm not a profiteer. I can't spend 10 million to buy these two things from you with peace of mind! If you insist on this price,  If so, I have no choice but not to buy it." "This" Sun Dayou frowned and pondered.After a while, he then asked: "Then how much do you think is appropriate?" "I'll take advantage of you, let's count it as 50 million!" Chu Chen replied.  To be honest, the price Chu Chen mentioned is quite reasonable. After all, the painting itself is of great significance, and the size of the painting is not small, with a size of 105*42CM. In addition, there is an inscription and postscript by Huang Tingjian on the painting.  As celebrities add celebrities, the value goes up even more. If it were put up for auction, it wouldn't be worth 50 million.  Of course, the normal market transactions are definitely not like the prices at auctions. Therefore, based on the current market, the price offered by Chu Chen is quite reasonable.  Sun Dayou was shocked to the point of numbness. Even if Chu Chen said it was worth 100 million, he probably wouldn't be dumbfounded now. Therefore, he immediately shook his head and said, "No, the price is too high. I'll give you a 50% discount!"  "50% off is too low, let's go with 95% off!" Seeing Chu Chen and Sun Dayou bargaining, those who didn't know thought that Chu Chen was the seller and Sun Dayou was the buyer. Others saw  The two of them looked like they would rather suffer than take advantage, and they all laughed secretly in their hearts.  Finally, Sun Dayou said with a speechless face: "Okay, okay, forty million is forty million, but one thing is that the snuff bottles must also be included in it, otherwise I really won't sell it." "Little  Chen, just agree!" Uncle Wu persuaded from the side.  "Okay" Chu Chen thought for a while and finally agreed.  Next, the two parties signed an agreement, and then Chu Chen accompanied Sun Dayou to the bank to transfer the account. When Sun Dayou took the bank card with 40 million in it, he felt in a trance.  It feels like falling into a dream.  Of course, Sun Dayou's behavior is also humane. No matter how ordinary people are, if they suddenly get such a large sum of money, they will feel the same as him.  "Mr. Sun, do you want me to take you back?" Chu Chen suggested when he saw Sun Dayou's dejected look.  "Ah?" Sun Dayou came back to his senses after hearing Chu Chen's words, and said quickly: "Boss Chu, you don't need to bother me. Look at all my outfits, they don't exceed three hundred yuan. No matter what,  Others won¡¯t think I¡¯m a multimillionaire. And I¡¯ll take a taxi back right away. Will the taxi driver still rob me in broad daylight?¡± Chu Chen chuckled and said, ¡°Okay, be careful on the road.¡±  , In addition, please help me take care of your family!" "Okay! Boss Chu, go and get busy! " After watching Sun Dayou leave, Chu Chen walked quickly to the store.  The situation was not good. He had to send the painting to Mr. Liu quickly for processing.  However, before Chu Chen walked a few steps, his mind suddenly moved, and then he slowed down and pretended to casually walk to a relatively remote alley.  Chu Chen turned around and asked the five arrogant gangsters who were following him: "I wonder if some of my friends have been following me. Do you have any advice?" As soon as he finished speaking, one of the gangsters with a tattoo on his neck pointed at  Chu Chen scolded: "Young face, you just stepped on me, and you asked us what we have to say. Are you shameless?" "Oh, I don't know when I stepped on you?" Chu Chen seemed to smile.  asked non-smilingly.  "Just now, why are you still trying to cheat?" the tattooed ruffian said with an angry look.  "Then tell me, what should we do?" Chu Chen spread his hands and asked.  ¡°Of course you¡¯ll pay us some mental damages and kowtow a few times!¡± the tattooed ruffian laughed.  Several other ruffians also laughed wildly. A bald ruffian standing in the middle laughed secretly. Mr. Liu also said that Chu Chen was very smart. With them, anyone with a discerning eye would know that they were here to cause trouble for him, but they still refused.  Like a person who has nothing to do, he looks like a fool no matter how you look at him.  And although this Chu Chen is taller, he has thin skin and tender flesh, and he doesn't look like the master Liu Shao said.  Chu Chen smiled coldly in his heart, patted the wallet in his pocket with a smile, and said, "I have a lot of money, but who do you want to come and get it?" The bald head sneered in his heart, even if this guy is good at skills, he still has the right way.  It's hard for two fists to beat four hands, and besides, both of you are veterans in fighting. Are you still afraid of a pretty boy?  So he glanced at the two yellow hairs next to him.  ???????????????????????????????????????¡ª????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????? However, when the two of them were about to reach Chu Chen, they felt their eyes blur, and then they felt like they were flying behind them in the clouds. With a "bump", the two of them fell heavily to the ground, groaning for a long time.  Can't get up.  Seeing this, bald headThe ruffian was immediately shocked and thought to himself, it seems that what Mr. Liu said is true, this pretty boy is indeed a master!  But what about the masters? There is an old saying in the martial arts world, no matter how good your skills are, you are still afraid of the kitchen knife. He couldn't believe that this pretty face with bare hands could compare to the machete in their hands?  "Brothers, take this guy!" the bald man yelled, while secretly resenting that even if this pretty boy knelt down and begged for mercy, he would still be destroyed!
