    Since we decided to wait and see, everyone will find a hotel to stay in.  In the car, Hu Yong said: "Brother Chu, the staff member just said that the Yuan family still owes some money. If he doesn't pay, the boy from the Yuan family will be detained for a longer time. Do you think Yuan Dazhong's son will be detained for a long time?"  Are you going to sell those materials for money for this matter? " " Generally speaking, most people will not sell the things left by their elders just after they pass away, but in reality there are many people who are so heartless.  , coupled with the fact that their son is still in jail, the parents are anxious because if someone bids a high price, they might actually sell it.  Thinking of this, Chu Chen said to Zuo Shan who was driving: "Let's go to the address just given before we talk." Zuo Shan responded, and then under the guidance of the GPS, drove to the address just given by the neighborhood committee.  go.  After about forty or fifty minutes, the car passed through the city and stopped at the entrance of a village on the outskirts of Gu City. Yuan Dazhong's wife, children and others now live in this village.  It is said that this was the farmhouse left to them by Yuan Dazhong's father-in-law when he passed away. If not, they would still have to rent a house to live in now.  ¡°Hey, I¡¯m not mistaken, why can¡¯t I even hear the joy and sorrow?¡± Hu Yong asked a little strangely.  Hearing this, Zuo Shan said speechlessly: "His family is like this, how can he still afford a military band?" "That's right." Hu Yong scratched his head: "Then let's go over and have a look now? But, when we get there, we have to  Don¡¯t you want to go in?¡± Chu Chen was also a little embarrassed about the question of whether to go in. After all, they didn¡¯t know each other and there was no proper reason to go to express condolences.  "Let's take a look first and then talk" Since the village road was not too wide and they were driving a relatively large business car, Chu Chen and Hu Yong got out of the car and walked, leaving Zuo Shan to stay here to watch the car.  The two of them just got out of the car.  Another Santana drove up the road.  "Hey, Director Chu" Chu Chen was just about to leave, but he didn't expect a shout to come from the car.  Looking back, I didn't expect that he was actually an acquaintance.  This person¡¯s name is Ren Yifan.  He is an expert in calligraphy, painting and ancient books in the antiques industry in Gu City. He had met him at an antique exchange meeting in Star City before, and Chu Chen later invited him to attend the opening ceremony of his museum.  Ren Yifan is over 60 years old. He looks a bit like Atub in the game. He looks very kind.  After getting off the car, he stepped forward and greeted Chu Chen warmly.  After the two sides exchanged a few words, Ren Yifan asked curiously: "Director Chu, are you here to express condolences to Lao Yuan?" The reason why Ren Yifan was curious was simple.  Although Yuan Dazhong has done very in-depth research on "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and can be said to be a senior expert, his reputation is only spread among a small circle. Coupled with Yuan Dazhong's withdrawn character, there should not be many people who know Chu Chen.  That's why he wondered why Chu Chen would also get the news?  "That's what happened" Chu Chen explained the reason to Ren Yifan: "Actually, I'm quite embarrassed. After all, it's not appropriate for me to talk about this matter just after the talent left." "Oh, yes.  That's what happened." A look of surprise appeared on Ren Yifan's face.  He said: "Let's see. I'll tell Xiao Yuan later, and he will probably agree. But it won't work in these two days." Chu Chen quickly expressed his gratitude after hearing this: "It doesn't matter if I'm two days late" Continued  After getting down, a few people walked towards their destination.  Ren Yifan said as he walked: "Speaking of which, I heard that several people want to buy Lao Yuan's research materials. If you come a few days later, someone else might get it first." "Why do they want these materials?" Hu  Yong asked curiously.  Ren Yifan said with a smile: "Let's not talk about anything else. There should be no problem in using it as material for writing a book, right? The information Lao Yuan researched is very detailed. The last time I saw him, he also told me  I said that I was ready to start writing a book. I didn¡¯t expect to encounter such a thing, things are unpredictable!¡±  Ren Yifan shook his head and sighed, quite sympathetic to Yuan Dazhong's experience.  The group of people came to a farmhouse that looked to be in disrepair.  There were only a few wreaths placed at the door, but the room was a little deserted, with few people coming to express condolences.  Seeing Chu Chen and others, a middle-aged man in his forties or eighteen years old with a filial piety came out immediately. This man was Yuan Dazhong's son Yuan Guocai. He said hello to Ren Yifan: "Uncle Ren,  "You're here!" "My condolences" Ren Yifan comforted him, and without saying anything else, he asked the man to take them into the house to express condolences.  Afterwards, Ren Yifan called the man out of the room, and then introduced Chu Chen.    Yuan Guocai's reaction was also quick. As soon as Ren Yifan finished introducing Chu Chen, he asked: "Director Chu, you must be here because of my father's research materials, right?" Ren Yifan looked at Yuan Guocai and asked: "  Xiao Yuan, looking at you, are there a lot of people asking? " Yuan Guocai nodded and said, "It's true, I received no less than five calls just this morning, all because of this matter." Chu Chen heard this.  He quickly asked: "Mr. Yuan, I wonder if you have agreed?" "Of course not." Yuan Guocai waved his hand: "My father just left and I sold his life's hard work. Am I still a human being?" "  "Xiao Yuan, then you don't want to take action?" Ren Yifan asked.  "To be honest, I really don't want to take action." Yuan Guocai said with a bitter smile: "But with my house like this, there is really no way not to sell it! Hey! In the end, it is all the fault of that bastard boy of mine." Speaking of this,  A look of shame appeared on his face, and he continued: "Of course, even if it is sold, it will definitely not be possible in these two days." "Then when are you going to prepare?" Chu Chen asked quickly.  "It will take a few days. I plan to wait at least seven days before talking." Then, Yuan Guocai smiled bitterly again: "However, the family of the victim also told me today that they wanted the information and gave it to them.  My son's matter will be written off. If he doesn't pay, he won't give up." Hearing what Yuan Guocai said, Ren Yifan frowned and asked, "How much do you still owe them?" Yuan Guocai replied: "More than 10,000 but less than 20,000."  In fact, I would only be able to get this amount of money in a year or two at most, and I would probably give them some interest, but they just don¡¯t agree to it. It¡¯s really too much to bully me.  I copied the information and spread it out!" Ren Yifan sneered when he heard this: "They just want to exchange the information for such a small amount of money!" Yuan Guocai shook his head: "I know what they think, anyway.  I won't agree. It's just that that family is a scoundrel. They might come over to make trouble. " Ren Yifan said, "Don't be afraid of them. Just give him the money. If he makes trouble again, call the police. I don't believe it.  We can't stop them." "But this money" "Mr. Yuan, I can pay some deposit in advance." Chu Chen interrupted.  "Isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Yuan Guocai seemed hesitant.  Chu Chen said: "Mr. Yuan, I will treat this money as wrongly given to you. Or we can set the price now, which will definitely satisfy you." Yuan Guocai thought for a while and said: "Director Chu, in fact, besides  In terms of money, I have another request that may embarrass you." "You said." "That's right, I hope that after you buy those materials back, you will publish a book on my father's famous "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".  "Work." Speaking of this, Yuan Guocai continued to explain: "My only requirement for this work is that it must be guaranteed in nature. If it is a perfunctory work, I have the right."  "Took it back." Chu Chen chuckled and said, "No problem, I can completely agree with you." "That's okay. I hope we can talk about the rest after seven days." "No problem"  Next, Chu Chen paid a deposit of 30,000 yuan in advance, asked Zuo Shan to have lunch together, and then left.  On the way, Ren Yifan invited Chu Chen to sit in his shop. There was nothing urgent in the capital anyway, so Chu Chen agreed with a smile.  Follow Ren Yifan¡¯s car to the largest antique market in Gu City, although today is Sunday.  But there were not many people in the market, this is because it is already afternoon.  Another reason is that there are many people here every Thursday. At that time, many street stalls are scattered in the surrounding lanes and alleys.  We arrived at Ren Yifan¡¯s antique shop, chatting and laughing all the way.  As soon as everyone walked to the door, they met two middle-aged men walking out of the store.  When one of them saw Ren Yifan, he immediately laughed: "Hey, what a coincidence. Just as we were about to leave, Mr. Ren came back." Ren Yifan chuckled and said, "It turns out to be Boss Lu. Is he interested in my collection again?  I¡¯m telling you, don¡¯t even think about it!¡± Boss Lu laughed and said, ¡°Mr. Ren, you have a lot of fine things in your collection, so it doesn¡¯t hurt to give me one!¡± Ren Yifan shook his head and said, ¡°No, you¡¯re like this!¡±  I don't know about people. " "That's a pity!" Boss Lu sighed regretfully, and then said: "Actually, I came here mainly because of my friend."I would like to ask you to appraise ?? paintings by Yun Shouping. Is it possible?  ¡± In fact, under normal circumstances, Ren Yifan doesn¡¯t like to appraise calligraphy and paintings by strangers. Naturally, everyone is happy to see good works. As an appreciator, the eyes have enjoyed a delicious meal and know that there are still many good works in the world, although they are not  I am also very pleased. As an owner, it is also very happy to have a little more understanding and love for the collection through appreciation and recognition. But, unfortunately, this situation does not happen often.  , treasure appraisers often take out an imitation or a shoddy fake, and then wait for the result with great anticipation. It is an uncomfortable feeling, to put it mildly, or to say it seriously, it is not good, and it is a disservice to the appraisers.  He started to feel uneasy. In addition, Ren Yifan had encountered quite unhappy things while helping others to conduct appraisals, so he didn¡¯t really like helping strangers conduct appraisals. But Boss Lu was his old customer after all.  The time is not short, and it is rare to ask him to appraise treasures, so I can only agree.
