Chapter 10 Galloping Horse Picture
Of course, he bought this wine not to drink it, but to take it back to the real world.
"A total of 470,000."
After the salesperson took out Maotai and Xifeng and put them on the counter, he said to Li Le.
Maotai is 30,000 and Xifeng is 17,000, which is exactly 470,000.
Li Le took out the money, counted 470,000, and handed it over and said, "Do you have anything to put it in? Otherwise, I won't be able to finish it!"
"Wait a moment, I'll find you a box."
"Yeah!" Li Le nodded.
Soon the salesperson brought a box, but it was not a cardboard box, but a wooden box.
Moreover, this wooden box is made of just a few wooden boards, so it can probably only hold some bottles and cans, and can be used to store other things.
The wooden box is quite big, and it can definitely hold twenty bottles of wine. Today's wine is different from that of later generations. There is no packaging box and it doesn't take up any space.
After the salesperson installed it, Li Le carried it and walked out.
Just as I walked to the door, I thought of something again, stopped and asked, "Do you have a Niulan Mountain Altar to hold wine here?"
The salesperson shook his head and said, "No, if you want to buy Niulanshan Altar, I guess you have to go to the factory to buy it."
"All right!"
After Li Le put away the wine and returned to the road from the alley, he looked up at the sun and felt that it was almost time, so he walked towards Liulichang.
At the entrance of the ancient painting studio, Li Le took a look inside. There were quite a lot of people, not to mention the crowds! That's almost it.
But Li Le went in anyway. Let’s not say whether to buy or not. It would be nice to go in and see the world!
After entering, Li Le discovered that there were various calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls. Although Li Le didn't understand calligraphy and painting, he still recognized the names on them.
Zheng Banqiao, Tang Bohu, Xu Beihong, Qi Baishi and so on.
There are ancient calligraphy and painting, as well as modern calligraphy and painting. Of course, there are more names that Li Le has never heard of.
And the prices are marked below these calligraphy and paintings.
Especially for ancient calligraphy and painting, the price is very outrageous, ranging from tens of millions to several million, but calligraphy and painting by modern painters are relatively cheap.
For example, the prices of Xu Beihong's Galloping Horses and Qi Baishi's Cattle Herding Paintings are relatively cheap, with the Galloping Horses only costing around 300,000 yuan.
Qi Baishi's painting of cattle herding is even cheaper, with a price tag of only 250,000. This may be because this painting is not well-known.
If it is a picture of shrimps painted in ink, the price may be higher. After all, the shrimps painted by Qi Baishi are the most famous.
But even for the ink shrimp picture, the price is probably limited, after all, it is not decades from now.
This made Li Le a little bit eager to make a move. Yes, no one among these people would have thought that these two paintings would be worth sky-high prices in a few decades.
The reason why Li Le was ready to make a move was because none of the people in the store paid attention to these two paintings, but instead stared at the ancient calligraphy and paintings.
It's better to strike first! Li Le found the clerk, handed over 550,000 yuan and said, "I want those two paintings."
"Uh!" The clerk was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly and said, "Okay, okay, I'll wrap it up for you right now."
The clerk was stunned for a moment, probably because he didn't expect Li Le to take action so quickly.
Because everyone else is still looking at the paintings and discussing.
"Um!"
"Li Le!"
At this moment, Mr. Liu came from nowhere and shouted.
"Master Liu!"
"Have you bought a painting?" Mr. Liu asked.
It is estimated that he came over after seeing Li Le making a transaction with the clerk.
"Yeah! I bought two modern paintings." Li Le nodded and said. "Modern painting?" Mr. Liu was surprised.
Basically, everyone will buy ancient calligraphy and paintings. Although the price will be more expensive, the older the antiques are, the more valuable they are.
As for modern paintings, basically no one considers them, even if they are very good, because they are not valuable!
"Yes, you also know that I like collecting. It doesn't matter whether it is an antique or not, as long as it is genuine."
Hearing what Li Le said, Mr. Liu nodded and said, "That's true. As long as it is true, there will be room for appreciation in the future."
"Um!"
"Whose calligraphy and painting did you buy?" Master Liu asked again.
"The paintings of Xu Beihong and Qi Baishi! I thought the paintings were very good, so I bought them." Li Le said, scratching his head stupidly.
"Not bad, not bad. These two are great people. Their paintings are indeed good. After ten or twenty years, the value will definitely increase."
As for why Mr. Liu said that it would be more than ten or twenty years later, Li Le knew it very well.
This has to be said about a phenomenon in the field of calligraphy and painting, that is, calligraphy and painting are not valuable while people are alive.
At this time, the clerk came over with two paintings and asked: "Comrade, do you want to see it?"
Just when Li Le was about to say no, Master Liu pulled him away.
Then Mr. Liu said to the clerk: "Open it and take a look!"
"OK!"
The clerk opened the two paintings one by one. After seeing that the paintings were fine, Mr. Liu said to the clerk: "Wrap it up!"
"Hey! I'll wrap it up for you."
"Master Liu! You..."
Before Li Le could finish speaking, Mr. Liu interrupted him and said, "Boy, didn't I tell you? The water here is very deep, so be careful at all times."
"Uh!" Li Le was stunned for a moment, nodded and whispered, "I understand, Mr. Liu, you were just worried that someone would cheat."
"That's right!"
When the two people were talking, they kept staring at the clerk.
Li Le was also sweating. If he hadn't opened it just now, if someone had switched the bag, it would have been a fortress.
It is estimated that even if he gets it back, they will not admit it. After all, the money and goods have been cleared, and Li Le has left the store again.
"Thank you, Mr. Liu!" Li Le thanked him sincerely.
"polite!"
The two stopped chatting after the clerk handed the wrapped painting to Li Le.
Then follow everyone to look at the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall.
To be honest, looking at these calligraphy and paintings, Li Le's eyes are filled with tears! It's a pity that he can't afford it, even the cheapest one, he can't afford it now.
Because he currently only has less than three million, and among these ancient calligraphy and paintings, the cheapest ones cost several million.
But Li Le is already very satisfied, because so far, he already has three antiques and two famous calligraphy and paintings in his hands.
After watching for about an hour, someone had already started trading. Li Le turned to Master Liu and said, "Master Liu, you are busy with your work. It's almost time for me to go back."
Li Le knew that Mr. Liu would definitely conduct a transaction later, and he would delay things here, so he said goodbye.
"Okay, you go back! I'll pick out a few pictures to play with too."
"Yeah!" Li Le nodded and left.
This time, Li Le did not put the calligraphy and painting into the space, but directly carried it back. Anyway, it was only two paintings and they were not heavy.
After returning home, Li Le went to the east room, which was the room he lived in before and was now designated as the place to travel.
