326 True or Fake Painting

“The second page after the painting is unveiled has the name and instructions of the original artist.”

At that time, after she finished painting this painting, she took a piece of paper and pasted it behind the painting to prevent anyone from misunderstanding that this was Wang Zhi’s painting. Although it was a little arrogant to say that, such a thing had indeed happened.

Hearing Gu Man’s words, Cui Hong was in even more disbelief.

This was because the auction would definitely not destroy the painting easily, let alone such a difficult job of unveiling the painting.

Perhaps this little girl had indeed learned about it before she came, but this method was too clumsy and could be seen through at a glance.

“How did you find out?”

Old Master Cui was not as impatient as Cui Hong. Instead, he looked at Gu Man curiously. He almost subconsciously thought that Xiang Yin had told Gu Man. After all, Xiang Yin was in one of the four major families, so it was not surprising that he knew this.

However, he stayed out of the situation calmly and did not participate at all, as if he was just accompanying Gu Man.

“Look at the bottom right corner of the painting. There’s a faint trace of ink. Although it’s cleverly covered by the forest, it can still be seen if you zoom in.”

Gu Man raised her hand and pointed at the location on the screen. In order to make it easier for the people on the second floor to watch, the screen could be magnified.

After magnifying it ten times, as expected, there were indeed some traces of ink in the forest in this landscape painting.

Cui Hong couldn’t care less about continuing the auction. He took a few steps forward and stared at the corner of the screen. He still said stubbornly, “Maybe it was just accidentally stained while it was being painted. This doesn’t prove that this painting is fake.”

It was indeed as Cui Hong had said. That was possible, so unveiling the painting was the strongest evidence. However, the auction would definitely not let them unveil the painting, besides it would not be easy to find someone who knew how to unveil paintings.

The process of painting unveiling was complicated and meticulous. There could not be any mistakes. If there was a mistake, it was very likely that a painting would be destroyed.

Although Cui Hong was still stubborn and did not believe Gu Man’s words, he did not continue to auction. Without Cui Hong’s competition, Elder Zhou successfully won this landscape painting.

He finally felt proud and looked at Old Master Cui’s private room proudly. As if he had forgotten what had just happened, he could not help but mock, “The Cui Family is already so desolate that they can’t even take out a few hundred million?”

Elder Zhou had the joy of winning his beloved painting and the smugness of successfully suppressing the Cui Family. He did not expect Old Master Cui, that prideful old man, to reply to him. He looked at the painting in the manager’s hand in satisfaction and waved his hand. “Put it away. This is Master Wang Zhi’s masterpiece. It can’t be damaged.”

Hearing the smugness in Elder Zhou’s words and his undisguised mockery, Cui Hong, who did not manage to successfully bid for the painting, felt an inexplicable anger rise in his heart. However, he could only suppress it because the other party was an elder.

However, Old Master Cui did not have so many worries. He completely believed Gu Man’s words. He thought that Elder Zhou’s luck was really too bad. He had bid for defective goods time and time again. At the thought of this, the creases on his face deepened.

“Elder Zhou’s taste is really bad. Why don’t you take the time to go to the hospital to take a look? You have to be treated early when your health is bad.”

Elder Zhou only snorted coldly and did not listen to Old Master Cui at all. “I think you’re just jealous that I won this painting.”

He let out a heavy breath. from He had finally restored his dignity from the humiliation before at this moment.

No matter what Old Master Cui said now, it was only because he was ashamed and angry that he did not manage to win the painting. He did not expect the Cui Family to be so desolate. He might as well give the position to the Zhou Family.

As the last item of the auction ended, the auction was approaching its end. The crowd squeezed towards the door. The person who bought the item was still waiting to pay the bill.

When he came out of the room, Elder Zhou happened to see Gu Man supporting Old Master Cui. He sized Gu Man up and snorted. “Little girls these days are starting to think about not living with honest means. However, Old Master Cui, you’re really charming.”
