Chapter 389 The painting is fake
After Lin Tian noticed this situation, he felt helpless, "Okay, don't pretend like I bullied you."
"I didn't do anything to you, I just told the truth. Do you need to squeeze out your tears?"
Han Ziwen stamped his feet angrily, "Why should I squeeze out my tears? You obviously bullied me, okay? You were so cruel to me just now!"
Lin Tian was suddenly stunned, "Tell me, Miss Han, what do you want? If nothing happens, I'll leave first."
Lin Tian had no desire to communicate with such a moody and delicate woman.
"Stop!" Han Ziwen suddenly ran to Lin Tian and stretched out his arms to block his way, "Do you know anything about antiques?"
Lin Tian raised his eyebrows, "Does it have anything to do with you?"
"If you know about antiques, can you help me?" Han Ziwen suddenly put on a pleading face, "My grandpa's birthday is coming soon. He likes antiques, calligraphy and painting, so I came here to buy an antique as a birthday gift. I will give it to him when the time comes. Give it to my grandpa, but I don’t understand..."
"Did I help you pick out the antiques so you wouldn't pester me?"
As soon as Lin Tian said these words, Han Ziwen suddenly frowned and asked, "Do you hate me so much?"
"I don't hate you." Lin Tian shook his head, "I don't want to have too much contact with you."
Han Ziwen's beautiful eyes suddenly widened, and he was so angry that his back molars were almost broken.
She is also a beauty after all.There is no platoon or class of men pursuing her.
But when she came to Lin Tian, she didn't seem to have any charm.
Does Lin Tian like men, or is Lin Tian blind and doesn't know what beauty is?
Thinking of this, Han Ziwen let out a sigh and managed to calm down, "As long as you help me choose antiques, I won't pester you anymore!"
"Okay." Lin Tian immediately agreed, "Where should I buy it?"
Han Ziwen pointed angrily, "This is the one."
Lin Tian looked up, raised his eyebrows, and then walked into the antique calligraphy and painting shop called "Yubaoxuan" with Han Ziwen.
"Welcome to Yubaoxuan. You two are really discerning. All the antique calligraphy and paintings in our store have been authenticated by hundreds of experts. They are absolutely authentic and you can never buy fakes."
The clerk came forward with a smile on his face, "What do you two want to see? Is it an antique handle, or antique calligraphy and painting..."
Han Ziwen suddenly pointed to an ink painting placed in a glass display case.
"Lin Tian, I like this painting very much. I was looking at it just now, but I don't understand it very well. Please help me identify it."
As soon as these words came out, the clerk and the customers in the store all turned their attention to Lin Tian.
Lin Tian nodded and walked to the glass display cabinet.
The landscape painting in the counter is called "Begonia and Two Crabs" and is signed by the famous painting master Mr. Shiraishi.
But Lin Tian only glanced at it and frowned.
The clerk on the side suddenly let out a contemptuous sneer, "This is the first time I have seen someone come to our Imperial Treasure Pavilion and not buy antique calligraphy and paintings, but instead appraise the antique calligraphy and paintings in my Imperial Treasure Pavilion. It's really eye-opening!"
As soon as these words came out, other customers cast disdainful glances at Lin Tian.
One of the women, who was wearing heavy makeup and dressed up in a fancy dress, even laughed directly.
"You're a poor boy, and you probably don't even have more than 500 yuan in all the clothes you wear. You dare to go to Yubaoxuan to appraise the antique calligraphy and paintings in Yubaoxuan store. I don't know who gave you the courage!"
If one person takes the lead, others will follow.
Many men and women in the store who considered themselves successful began to echo the ridicule.
"How do such self-righteous low-class people dare to come to a place like this? Breathing the same air as us is simply a humiliation to us!"
"That's right. Those low-level people who don't know how to pretend to understand should be kicked out..."
Han Ziwen was anxious and angry when he saw Lin Tian being laughed at by everyone.
Lin Tian is a poor boy with no money?
What a joke.
Lin Tian previously performed an operation on the eldest daughter of the Tang family, and made 1000 million yuan in less than half an hour for one operation.
Would such a person be a poor boy?
Snapped!
Han Ziwen suddenly placed a card heavily on the counter.
"Shut up, everyone, who said we have no money!"
The clerk was stunned, looked intently, and his eyes widened.
The men and women who mocked Lin Tian also shut their mouths after seeing the card Han Ziwen took out.
Lin Tian saw this, glanced at the card, and raised his eyebrows with a half-smile.
Han Ziwen's card is a bank card, but it is golden in color, as if it is made of gold.
Needless to say, people who hold such bank cards must be rich or noble.
Thinking of this, Lin Tian glanced at Han Ziwen, but he didn't expect that this woman was still a little rich woman.
"Look what I'm doing, I'm letting you look at this painting." Han Ziwen glared at Lin Tian, "How about it, is there anything wrong with this painting?"
Lin Tian smiled and suddenly turned around, apparently planning to leave.
"Why are you leaving?" Han Ziwen suddenly became anxious and grabbed Lin Tian, "This painting..."
"There's no need to look at this painting." Lin Tian directly interrupted Han Ziwen, "If you really want to buy antique calligraphy and painting for your grandpa as a birthday gift, it's best to go to another antique store."
"The things in this antique shop are not 100% authentic. At least the picture of Begonia and Crab that you just fell in love with is fake."
Han Ziwen's eyes suddenly widened, "You...what did you say? The painting is fake?!"
Lin Tian nodded impatiently, "It's fake, it can't be fake anymore!"
Suddenly, the store was completely silent.
Everyone looked at Lin Tian like an idiot.
Yubaoxuan has been on this street for at least a hundred years, and there have never been fakes in the store.
But now Lin Tian actually said in front of everyone that the paintings in Yubaoxuan were fake. He was undoubtedly running to the King of Hell and saying that he had had enough life. He was just looking for trouble!
"Sir, please pay attention to your words, this is Yubaoxuan!" The clerk immediately put on a cold face and looked at Lin Tian with an unkind look.
"Please immediately apologize to our Royal Treasure House for what you just said, otherwise we will call the police!"
Lin Tian raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I said the picture of Begonia and Crab in your store is fake, then it must be fake!"
The clerk's face turned completely cold, "Sir, please apologize immediately, otherwise I will call the police immediately and sue you for spreading rumors and slander!"
Lin Tian stared at the clerk with amusement on his face, "Spreading rumors and slandering... Haha, do you think I am smearing your Royal Treasure House?"
"Is not it?!"
Lin Tian smiled jokingly, "Can you guarantee that the picture of crabapples and crabs in the display cabinet is authentic?"
Lin Tian's attitude and doubtful words made the clerk completely angry and suddenly raised his voice.
"Good boy, I think you are here to cause trouble. Believe it or not, I will ask the security guards to throw you out immediately!"
Han Ziwen quickly pulled Lin Tian, "Sorry, I..."
"Why are you apologizing to him?" Lin Tian snorted, "That painting was originally fake."
"Who said the paintings in our shop are fake!"
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes walked out and looked at Lin Tian unfavorably.
"Sir, I am the store manager of Yubaoxuan. I just heard you say that the Begonia and Crab picture in my store is fake. I want to ask why you say that?!"
