Someone at the scene saw that it was Ni Kuang who spoke, and joked: "Boss Ni, I want to sell a beautiful woman a favor for forty taels. The price is too good."
"Yeah, you might as well Just take a photo of it and give it to this lady.”
“This lady, Boss Ni is young and promising. If compared with Boss Ni, I would be inferior.”
Ni Zhen ignored those people, looked at Ni Kuang, smiled, and said: "I'm afraid I can't pay you back these forty taels so quickly."
This calmness, this elegance, this calmness , which made Ni Kuang happy.
"It doesn't matter, what I like is the lady's temperament in pursuing art. When will you have these forty taels, it will not be too late to return them to me."
Look. Look at others, it’s just different.
Although these forty taels were almost given as gifts, the steps they gave were neither high nor short, but Ni Zhen had to step on them.
Wanted to accept Ni Kuang's kindness or give up the calligraphy and painting, Ni Zhen chose the former.
"In that case, thank you Boss Ni for your kindness."
Ni Zhen nodded to Ni Kuang to express her gratitude.
Ni Kuang turned to the auctioneer on the stage and said, "Miss, I have collected this painting for one hundred taels."
Seeing this, the auctioneer immediately cleared his throat and shouted, "One hundred taels." Twice once. "
What kind of person is this Ni Kuang? Since he has spoken, even if Ni Zhen doesn't have a penny on his body, he will still be short of a hundred taels.
Similarly, if Ni Kuang opened his mouth, it meant that he wanted a hundred taels for this calligraphy and painting. No one dared to compete with Ni Kuang for this calligraphy and painting, so naturally no one raised the price.
"One hundred taels for the second time, one hundred taels for the third time, deal done!"
As the auctioneer dropped the hammer, Ni Zhen hugged the mounted calligraphy and painting.
After that, Ni Zhen never raised her hand again, but Ni Kuang took pictures of two antiques.
At the end of the auction, Ni Kuang ranked as the highest bidder in the auction that day with four high-priced antiques.
And that Ni Zhen, ranked last among all the bidders, was the one hundred taels.
After everyone congratulated Ni Kuang on his favorite antiques, Ni Zhen came belatedly and said to Ni Kuang: "Boss Ni, I wonder if you have time to come to the inn where I live after the auction. "
Ni Kuang was a little surprised to hear what Ni Zhen said.
Ni Kuang’s family is extremely wealthy, so it’s not like there are no women who find opportunities to get close to him, but from his point of view, Ni Zhen should not be that kind of person.
So when Ni Zhen invited him to sit where she lived, Ni Kuang instantly thought that Ni Zhen was also such an unruly woman.
He even regretted lending her forty taels of silver.
Looking at the wrong person is like looking at the wrong antique, which is an insult to your own vision.
Ni Kuang asked somewhat displeasedly: "What are you doing here where you live?"
Ni Zhen still said that she was neither humble nor humble.He said with an arrogant attitude: "Repay Boss Ni forty taels of silver."
Ni Kuang looked at Ni Zhen with indifferent eyes and said: "Miss Ni, don't you only have those sixty taels with you? Why did you suddenly Are you rich again?"
Ni Zhen said in a low voice: "There are many eyes and ears here, so it is difficult to disclose it. Please follow me, Boss Ni, and I will tell you the truth."
Ni Kuang thought to himself, okay, try to lure me there in a different way, not just to settle the bill with your body, but maybe after sleeping with him, he will blackmail me.
Ni Kuang sneered and said: "Okay, I will accompany you to have a look."
When he got here, what Ni Kuang was actually thinking was that he had to see this Ni Zhen meeting with his own eyes. Play some tricks.
If she really wanted to seduce him and use her body to repay the silver tael, Ni Kuang would definitely reprimand her harshly, so she didn’t want forty taels.
But in fact...
Ni Kuang still holds a trace of fantasy.
He didn’t want to believe that Ni Zhen was that kind of woman, or in other words, he didn’t want to believe that there was something wrong with his eyesight. He had never failed to look at antiques, so how could he miss a woman? ?
......
Follow Ni Zhen to the inn where she stayed.
After Ni Zhen entered the house, she looked around at the door to make sure no one was following her, then she closed the door.
Walking to the table, Ni Zhen smiled at Ni Kuang, spread the calligraphy and paintings in her arms on the table, and then leaned down to observe carefully.
Ni Kuang looked at Ni Zhen’s movements and felt a little puzzled.
What is she doing? Didn’t she call me here because she wanted to...
Ni Kuang became interested in Ni Zhen’s behavior at this moment.
After carefully looking at the calligraphy and painting that had just been auctioned from top to bottom, Ni Zhen slowly stood up straight, showed a sweet smile to Ni Kuang, and then said: "Boss Ni, I really want to thank you. In order to repay you for lending me the forty taels of silver, I am willing to return you four hundred taels."
Ni Kuang was stunned.
"Ni...Miss Ni, what do you mean by this?"
Judging from Ni Zhen's performance, could this calligraphy and painting be authentic?
Sure enough, Ni Zhen said: "Boss Ni, please take a closer look at this calligraphy and painting."
Ni Kuang hurried to the table and observed carefully from top to bottom, but did not After a while, a disappointed expression appeared on his face.
"Ms. Ni, this calligraphy and painting... is indeed not authentic. I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to sell it for a high price. Please forgive me for speaking frankly. Even if it is sold for another hundred taels, it will be difficult."
p>Ni Zhen chuckled and said: "Boss Ni, I didn't expect you to make mistakes sometimes."
Hearing what Ni Zhen said, Ni Kuang quickly observed the calligraphy and painting again .
This calligraphy and painting is indeed fake. Why is Ni Zhen so sure it is true?
For antique dealers, eyesight is the most important thing. Ni Zhen said that he was wrong., Ni Kuang was really unconvinced by the boss.
You girl, I’m afraid I’ve never seen anything good. It’s obviously a fake, but you actually told me it was an authentic one. Even if you want to deceive me, do you really think that all the antique dealers present at the time were Are you blind? Can't you see what this painting is worth?
Seeing the questioning expression on Ni Kuang's face, Ni Zhen said calmly, "Boss Ni, just wait and see."
After saying that, Ni Zhen walked out of her arms. Ni Zhen took out a potion and applied it on the surface of the calligraphy and painting. After a while, when the potion dried, Ni Zhen gently peeled it off and actually opened a piece of paper on the surface of the calligraphy and painting.
Ni Kuang was surprised when he stepped forward to take a look. After the surface of the calligraphy and painting was uncovered, there was actually a calligraphy and painting underneath!
“There are actually two paintings of this calligraphy and painting!”
“Yes, the upper one of this calligraphy and painting is an imitation, but the lower one is an imitation. Really!"
With excitement, Ni Kuang carefully checked the calligraphy and painting below from top to bottom, word by word, and found that it was really authentic!
"This is a calligraphy and painting from the Yuanshi period of the early Yu Dynasty. It is a work of the great painter Shun Quan!"
Ni Kuang's voice was trembling.
If this painting were real, I’m afraid it would be difficult to win it even with ten thousand taels of silver!
Ni Zhen smiled and said: "At this moment, do you still think I am bragging?"
A mere four hundred taels of silver, for this calligraphy and painting, is a slap in the face Just a big place.
"I believe it, I believe it! Miss Ni, how did you see that there is something wrong with this calligraphy and painting?"
Ni Zhen smiled and replied: "We are auctioning this calligraphy and painting. When I was there, I noticed that the paper used in this painting is a very special kind of paper that is not easy to rot and is waterproof and insect-proof. It is made with a special process and is very hard to find. Ordinary people would not use this kind of paper. If I try to draw an imitation painting on paper, then there must be something fishy about it. Then I heard that this calligraphy and painting was from the Yingping period, and I remembered that the Yu Dynasty had just ended its war, and the world was very chaotic and extremely uneven. In order to prevent the calligraphy and painting in their hands from being snatched away, some calligraphy and painting dealers use a special potion to paste a fake calligraphy and painting on the real calligraphy and painting to deceive others and get away with it.”
Ni Kuang did not expect that such a beautiful woman would have such a delicate mind and a very smart mind, which made people admire her with admiration.
"Thinking of these two points, I boldly guessed that someone put a fake painting on it in order to hide the original work, but in order to keep the original work intact, they used a kind of It is a very rare and precious piece of paper, so I put all my money on it." Ni Kuang then said, "It seems that you made the right bet."
Ni Zhen's gambling performance just proves her confidence.
"Boss Ni, I will ask you to sell this painting and calligraphy on your behalf. When you sell it, you will deduct four hundred taels and send the rest to me."
After hearing this, Ni Kuang was surprised and said: "Miss Ni, aren't you afraid that I will swallow this calligraphy and painting?"
Ni Zhen smiled and said: "I know you are not that kind of person, otherwise, you would be mine." There is something wrong with my vision."
Ni Kuang was shocked after hearing this.
Her thoughts coincided with mine...
Eye knows people.
Back home, Ni Kuang tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep at night.
Early the next morning, he reported the matter to the elders of the Ni family and expressed his good impression of Ni Zhen.
After the Ni family heard about the calligraphy and painting, they said to Ni Kuang: "The two families have the same surname Ni. I think they were the same family hundreds of years ago. There is a woman in the Ni family who has such a sharp vision that she can surpass you and the scene." All the buyers are really my daughters-in-law!"
Ni Kuang immediately sent someone to prepare the dowry and went to the Ni family in Daliang to propose marriage.
The marriage proposal team came to Ni's house in great numbers. Someone with good intentions had already told Ni Zhen and her parents about it.
Ni Kuang pointed to the boxes of silver taels and said to Ni Zhen: "I bought that painting myself for 20,000 taels and brought it all with me. In addition, I also brought this painting with me. I want to propose you a calligraphy and painting as a betrothal gift."
That calligraphy and painting is not the one Ni Zhen bought at the auction.
Ni Zhen’s parents saw that Ni Kuang’s family was well off and he was sincere about marrying their daughter, so they agreed to the marriage.
Ni Zhen actually had a good impression of Ni Kuang for a long time, so she nodded and agreed.
The two Ni families split from one Ni family hundreds of years ago, and merged into one family hundreds of years later.
That’s gratifying.
It was rumored at that time that Ni Zhen was really lucky. With her sharp eyes, she paid sixty taels of silver and not only got back tens of thousands of taels of silver, she also got a son-in-law who could ride a dragon. What a deal. What a great deal!
......
After listening to Cao Dahua's introduction, Lin Yi felt that the Ni family's marriage was a good thing.
"Brother Cao, so to speak, the relationship between Ni Kuang and Ni Zhen can be considered a good story, but I just heard Li Sheng, the housekeeper of the Ni family, say that their master died of heartache a few years ago. I don’t know what happened? Did he really die because of heartache?” People have said that after autopsy and questioning, it was indeed due to angina pectoris and not murder. Therefore, many people were very sorry at the time that the beautiful couple was separated while still alive. ”
< p>This is very different from what Butler Li said.......
When we arrived at Ni's house, Li Sheng was already waiting at the gate.
Seeing Lin Yi and Cao Dahua coming, Li Sheng hurriedly stepped forward to greet them, pulled them aside mysteriously, and said: "Not many people in the government know about this matter, please two Be patient and follow me through the back door."
This.What kind of status does Cao Dahua have? Is it ridiculous that he cannot enter the house through the main entrance?
Lin Yi didn't care, it didn't matter where he entered.
Taking the back door is also the way to go.
Seeing Cao Dahua's displeasure, Butler Li quickly stuffed another banknote into each of their hands.
Lin Yi took a look, oh, it’s twelve taels again!
Lin Yi himself didn’t believe that the Ni family’s financial resources were inferior to those of the Su family.
He went out with forty taels casually, and his level of arrogance was definitely not that of an ordinary rich man.
Cao Dahua took the banknote and asked Li Sheng to lead the way with a smile.
......
The two entered Ni's house through the back door, and under the leadership of Li Sheng, they went to the bedroom of his wife Ni Zhen.
There was a maid waiting nearby. Seeing Li Sheng coming, Yingying bowed and said, "Housekeeper Li, you are here, my wife is not awake yet."
"Well, you are not here. Let’s go down.”
The maid immediately left the house and closed the door.
As soon as Lin Yi entered the room, he felt that the temperature was a little abnormal, much colder than outside.
At this time, Li Sheng revealed the truth to Lin Yi and Cao Dahua.
It turned out that after the cow was discovered in the yard, a maid came to report that the lady had fainted and died naked on the bed.
This is a serious matter.
Li Sheng immediately distributed money to the servants who knew about it, asked to keep the secret strictly, and then asked the maid to put on his wife's clothes before coming to see it in person.
As a result, he found that Ni Zhen had been unconscious, and there was a death in his family. Li Sheng didn't know what to do for a while, so he thought of Lin Yi at Wuyinmen, and thought about inviting Lin Yi to come. First revive Ni Zhen, then ask what happened, and then see how to dispose of Niu Er's body.
That’s why Li Sheng invited Lin Yi to visit.
......
Hearing what Li Sheng said, Lin Yi opened his eyes without saying a word.
After his eyes slowly fogged up, he saw Ni Zhen’s experience after marriage.
After getting married, the two of them were as close as each other, and they loved each other as much as they loved each other.
In the antique business, Ni Zhen relied on her unique vision to help Ni Kuang shine in the antique world, and also brought the Ni family to a higher level.
In less than a year, Ni Zhen became pregnant with Ni Kuang's flesh and blood and gave birth to a healthy boy. This made Ni Zhen's position in the Ni family more stable.
One day, Ni Kuang returned home from outside and mysteriously handed a bronze mirror to Ni Zhen's hand.
He told Ni Zhen that the bronze mirror was a precious antique and that he had spent a lot of money to get it from outside. He asked her to take a look at it.
After Ni Zhen looked at it carefully, a complicated look appeared in her eyes, and she said to Ni Kuang: "Husband, this bronze mirror is not an extraordinary thing. It is an item from the Jishi era. It is worth at least a thousand taels of silver."
Ni Kuang laughed loudly after hearing this and replied: "Do you know, I only spent ten taels of silver to turn this bronze mirror into a new one?"I bought it from an old Taoist. What do you think of my husband's vision? That Taoist was really wasting his wealth. He had such a precious artifact but didn't even know its value. I got it for nothing. ”
Ni Zhen said: “Husband, this bronze mirror is made with good craftsmanship, so please keep it for me to use.” "
"If Madam likes it, use it. ”
Ni Kuang is also generous.
An antique worth a mere thousand taels is nothing in Ni Kuang’s eyes.
However, in Ni Zhen’s eyes Here, she saw the abnormality of this bronze mirror...
