Chapter 1736

"Haha, Beixiong, Yunxiang, you don't have to be so polite, sit down and talk!" Wu Shouzhuo raised his hand slightly, signaling the two to sit down at his position.

At this time, Wu Chu'nan, who was behind the screen, glanced at Ye Xiao with his peripheral vision, silently asking Ye Xiao what he thought of the two leaders of the Tiger and Leopard Halls?

Ye Xiao grinned and then raised a little finger.

Wang Beixiong and Lin Yunxiang were both considered local heroes in Penglai, but it also depends on who they are compared with. In the inland of Longguo, Ye Xiao was very sure that such people had no room to survive.

First of all, the officials in the inland government would not blatantly cultivate gang forces like the three major forces.

Just like Yuan Lushan, the governor of Donghai Province at the time, although he was already in a high position, he only dared to open a small account to raise white gloves.

People like Wang Beixiong and Lin Yunxiang, who relied on the power of the Wu family to become big, must not be able to get too many open development conveniences in the inland.

Secondly, Wang Lin and Lin Yunxiang rebelled, and the Wu family knew about it but did not kill them in time. This is almost impossible in the inland, because the inland environment does not allow Wang Lin and Lin to jump left and right.

Therefore, people like Wang Lin can only grow and grow in an environment like Penglai. If they are placed in other places, they may not have room for development.

In the reception hall, Wang Beixiong and Lin Yunxiang did not sit down according to Wu Shouzhuo's instructions.

Wang Beixiong smiled and opened the brocade box in his hand, and took out a silk painting from it.

"Mr. Wu, I know you like antiques and calligraphy and paintings, so Yunxiang and I spent a lot of money to find a painting by Mr. Su Weng from overseas. I hope Mr. Wu will like it."

Su Weng?

Hearing Wang Beixiong's words, Wu Shouzhuo, who had been sitting in the main seat, had a glimmer in his eyes.

Behind the screen, Wu Chuan, who knew nothing about antiques, was full of confusion.

Who is Su Weng? How come I haven't heard of it?

How does it compare to the Zheng Banqiao paintings I prepared?

Ye Xiao, who was beside Wu Chu'nan, narrowed his eyes. It seems that Wang Beixiong and Lin Yunxiang really put a lot of effort into it!

Wu Chu'nan has little contact with antiques, so he may not know much about Suo Weng, but Ye Xiao knows the status of Suo Weng's paintings in the collection world.

Suo Weng's original name was Chen Rong. He was a painter in the Southern Song Dynasty. He was good at painting dragons. His ink and wash dragon paintings were called Suo Weng dragons, which became the standard for all ancient "dragon paintings" since the Southern Song Dynasty.

There was once a painting of Chen Rong's five dragons, which was sold at a high price of 300 million in Hong Kong City. It was said that one dragon was worth 50 million.

For Wu Shouzhuo, who also studied antiques and calligraphy, he was surprised after hearing the name of Suo Weng, but soon Wu Shouzhuo returned to indifference.

"I didn't expect you could find Suo Weng's paintings. You are really thoughtful!"

Although Wu Shouzhuo had some expectations for Suo Weng's paintings, a real Suo Weng work is not so easy to get. After the Southern Song Dynasty, those who collected it were all royal families and top officials. How could it be easily obtained by Wang Beixiong and Lin Yunxiang?

Therefore, in Wu Shouzhuo's opinion, the paintings in their hands were mostly fakes.

"Mr. Wu, Yunxiang and I have no research on paintings. You should come and appreciate it yourself!" Wang Beixiong said, and carefully unfolded the silk painting in his hand.

In this regard, Wu Shouzhuo did not stop him. First, he was really interested in the painting in Wang Beixiong's hand.

Secondly, Wang Lin and the others came up to please him right away, so they should have some plans. It's better to follow the steps of the two and see what happens!

As Wang Beixiong unfolded the silk painting bit by bit, a majestic picture of four dragons appeared in front of everyone.

The silk and color of this painting are well preserved. Each of the four black dragons on it has a different expression.

Some are flying in the clouds and rain, some are controlling the wind and thunder, and some are soaring and leaping in the sea, sky, wind and rain. It is very realistic, and the mysterious monsters are hidden, as if they are about to jump out of the picture one by one.

As soon as he saw this painting, Wu Shouzhuo couldn't sit still. He stood up instinctively, stepped forward to take a closer look, and soon became fascinated.

Seeing her father's expression, Wu Huiru, who was standing behind the screen, frowned immediately. She saw that her father liked this ancient painting.

It seems that Wang Beixiong and Lin Yunxiang really found an ancient painting with a very high value!

Wu Chu Nan also frowned. Wu Shou Zhuo's expression clearly showed that he liked this piece of shit, Suo Weng Long. This might affect Wu Shou Zhuo's original opinion of Wang Lin and the others.

At first, when Wu Chu Nan learned that Wu Shou Zhuo had asked Ye Xiao and himself to listen in on the conversation in the reception hall, Wu Chu Nan was a littleSurprised, this shows that Wu Shouzhuo also has some thoughts and cooperates with his side.

Otherwise, he would not have deliberately arranged it like this.

But now, Wang Lin and the others have successfully catered to his preferences, and Wu Chuanan dare not guarantee that Wu Shouzhuo will maintain his initial attitude.

Wu Shouzhuo's expression changes were naturally seen by Ye Xiao, but Ye Xiao did not immediately make a guess, but concentrated at this time and carefully looked at the ancient painting in Wang Beixiong's hand.

Although Ye Xiao was five or six meters away from Wang Beixiong at this time, with Ye Xiao's eyesight, he could examine every detail of the painting clearly.

Even compared to Wu Shouzhuo who came up to watch, he could see it more clearly.

After more than ten seconds, Ye Xiao's mouth curled up a sneer. Regardless of whether Wu Shouzhuo could see the authenticity of the painting, he knew it in his heart anyway.

"Mr. Wu, I asked someone in the Western Continent to buy this painting of Suo Wenglong for 200 million dragons. It is said that it was lost from a prince's house in the late Qing Dynasty. Later, I asked an antique expert in Penglai to appreciate it. The artistic value is quite high."

"If Mr. Wu likes it, I will give it to you. It would be a waste to keep it in the hands of an outsider like me."

Seeing that Wu Shouzhuo was intoxicated by it, Wang Beixiong said at the right time.

Although he did not understand ancient paintings, he believed in one truth: as long as you are willing to spend a lot of money, you will never buy a fake.

After hearing what Wang Beixiong said, Wu Shouzhuo turned his gaze away from Suo Wenglong and said with a smile: "Beixiong, I really like this painting, but I won't accept it without merit. I'll have someone transfer the two hundred million to you."

If Wang Beixiong had only sent ordinary antiques and paintings, Wu Shouzhuo would never have accepted them, even at the original price, just because Wang Beixiong and Lin Yunxiang had already rebelled against the Wu family.

But Suo Wenglong really touched Wu Shouzhuo's heart. Even if he hated Wang Lin and Lin Yunxiang, he couldn't bear to miss such a masterpiece.
