The man finally negotiated the price with the boss, and the boss promised that if the painting was sold, he would give him a 37/30 share.

Of course, it was the boss, seven men and three men.

The man left with a grateful expression, Yin Yin pulled Linglong's shirt, "Let's go."

Linglong stared at Yin Yin for a few moments, then followed her out the door without saying anything.

Yin Yin pulled Linglong out of the shop, but jumped to the roof of the shop at the corner, and Linglong followed her to the roof.

"I thought you would follow that man."

Yin Yin raised her eyebrows, "Why follow, you can watch the play here." After speaking, she carefully lifted a roof tile, and through the gap, she could see the situation in the shop clearly.

"Watching the play? If the play is not good, you have to compensate me."

Linglong's words made Yin Yin shudder a little, "Don't worry, it's guaranteed to be worth the ticket price."

The two waited on the roof for a while, when they saw a tall young man walk into the house. He was wearing a bright yellow brocade suit, holding a gold-trimmed fan in his hand, with a cynical smile on his face.

At first glance, he looks like a rich and stupid eldest young master.

So the boss eagerly greeted him, "Yo, this man, choose calligraphy and painting? We are a century-old brand here, and the authenticity is guaranteed."

Yin Yin: "..." Is it still free shipping, dear

The eldest young master walked around the room, and he didn't seem to have anything to look at, and he seemed to be lacking in interest. Just as he was about to leave and the boss was secretly anxious, the eldest young master's gaze stopped before a picture that had not been hung up.

It is the true work of the legendary Fan Daxian, the beauty under the moon.

"This..." The eldest young master rushed to the painting with some excitement, and was at a loss for words, "Old, boss! How did this painting sell?"

The boss looked at the eldest young master in surprise, "You... really want to buy this?"

"Of course!" The eldest young master replied excitedly, "This is Fan Daxian's masterpiece, the beauty under the moon! I've been looking for this painting for a long time!"

The boss is puzzled, is this really Fan Daxian's painting

The eldest young master held on to the painting and refused to let go, "Boss, you can ask for a price. How about five thousand taels? If it's not enough for you, I'll give it to you no matter how much!"

The boss swallowed his saliva. Is this broken painting worth five thousand taels

"Boss, you are talking!"

The boss's voice trembled a little, and today was really a big luck, "Master, since you like it so much, I won't scream high. If you say five thousand taels, then five thousand taels!"

The eldest young master nodded excitedly, "Boss, you are real! I don't have so much money with me right now, I'll go back and get it. You can keep the painting for me, and I'll be right back!"

The boss's face was wrinkled with laughter, "I must, I will keep it for you! Go and come back quickly."

The eldest young master responded and went away like a gust of wind.

Linglong, who was watching this scene on the roof, raised her eyebrows, Yin Yin smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's not over yet."

Sure enough, the eldest young master had just left for a while, and the man who was selling paintings just now came back.

"Boss Boss! You haven't sold my painting, have you?" The man's expression looked a little panicked.

"Not yet, what's the matter?" The boss looked at the man and felt a little confused. Could it be that he wanted to change his mind

"It's fine if you don't sell it! Return that painting to me, and I won't sell it!"

The boss's face suddenly collapsed, "Hey, I said what's going on with you, you just begged me to sell it for you, why did you suddenly change your mind?"

The man wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to the boss, "You don't know! I just went home and saw that our ancestors' spiritual positions all fell down! The incense was also extinguished, which almost scared me to death! It must be The old ancestor knew that I had sold that painting, so he was angry!"

The boss didn't want the five thousand taels in his hand to fly like this, and hurriedly said: "Oh, I said, isn't this superstition! Was the spiritual position blown down by the wind?"

"Where did such a strong wind come from, and the spiritual position was blown down! It's all my fault. Even if you can't eat, you can't sell the treasure handed down by your ancestors!"

The boss was a little anxious, "Look, you can't starve to death as a living person, right? You can't eat while guarding that painting! I told you, don't be so superstitious." The boss said I paused here, "Well, I bought your painting and gave you one hundred taels. What do you think?"

"One hundred taels? Boss, are you kidding me?"

"I don't think you are pitiful? To be honest, no one wants your broken painting, but I can't watch you die, can I? I'm not such a person!" The boss said and took it out. He took one hundred taels of silver and handed it to the man.

The man held the silver note in his hand, still hesitant, "This... I... "

"Don't you or me, you can't die holding that painting, can you?"

"Oh! That's all!" The man walked out of the calligraphy and painting shop with the silver note.

"Is this the play you're talking about?" Linglong looked at Yin Yin and seemed a little dissatisfied.

"Uh..." Mingming is so wonderful, "Those two are a gang, they are liars!"

"How did you know?"

With my years of experience in the arena of cheating.

These tricks were their usual tricks, and she could smell their common scent all at once. I didn't expect to meet so many colleagues in ancient times. ╮(╯_╰)╭

Yin Yin thought so in his heart, but put the tile back on again, pulled Linglong and jumped off the roof, "Follow me and see."

The man walked out a few streets and turned into a small alley.

"Master, your method really works!"

"Hey, it's a piece of cake, isn't it~~" The young master's voice came from the alley just now.

"This money..."

"Just take this money and go to treat your daughter quickly~"

"Thank you Engong, you are really a living Bodhisattva!"

Yin Yin: "…"

Take other people's money to do good deeds, you are truly a living Buddha.

The man and the eldest young master came out of the alley one after another and left separately. The eldest young master was unlucky and just chose Yin Yin's side.

Seeing a man and a woman suddenly standing in front of him, the smile on the young master's face froze, "What's the matter with the two of you?"

Only then did Yin Yin carefully look at the eldest young master. He looks really good-looking, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and the corners of his mouth are slightly upturned.

Yin Yin smiled at him, "Abetting a crime and a huge amount of fraud, I don't know how many years can be sentenced."

The eldest young master is even a little stiff now, he poked his face, and said with a smile: "My name is Kong Kong, I don't know how you two address them?"

Yin Yin: "…"

Dare to take a more sincere pseudonym

Yin Yin wiped his face and asked, "Kongkong? Is it Aoi Sora's Sora, or Sun Wukong's Sora?"

Eldest Young Master: "..."

Who will tell him what the eldest lady is talking about

He winked at Yin Yin, forced a smile and said, "The owner of the calligraphy and painting shop, most of the calligraphy and paintings he sells are fakes, but he sells them at the price of genuine works, which has fooled a lot of people. I can't get used to it for a long time. I just needed money to treat my daughter's illness, so I gave him a hand. Besides, if the boss wasn't too greedy, how could he be fooled? I offered him five thousand taels, but he only gave Lao Huang one hundred taels and thirty-seven. There should be 1,500 taels for the split account!"

The eldest young master seemed to be a little indignant when he said this.

"How do you know that they are selling fakes?" Could it be that you are still an expert in calligraphy and painting identification

"Because the real works are all in my house."

Yin Yin: "…"

She looked at the eldest young master and smiled, "Since you are so rich, why don't you help Lao Huang with your own money?"

The eldest young master smiled embarrassedly, "To tell you the truth, in fact, I escaped from the marriage this time, and I walked in a hurry, and I didn't have a lot of money with me. Besides, I'm not helping the boss to accumulate wicked virtue! After saying that, he looked at Yin Yin with some guilty conscience, "You don't really want to arrest me to see the officials, right?"

This time, before Yin Yin spoke, Linglong said, "Of course not, you can go."

"Thank you very much." The eldest young master smiled happily, "I will invite you to dinner next time I meet you~~"

Yin Yin looked at the distant back of the eldest young master and asked, "Do you know each other?"

Linglong smiled and said, "Do you know who he is?"

Yin Yin couldn't help wrinkling his nose, "You know again?"

"His name is He Liankong, and he is the second prince today."

=mouth=

Second prince? ! !

Linglong continued: "Didn't I have a customer who likes to buy recipes? That's him. This second prince, although he is in a high position, is idle all day, eats and cooks lazily, and doesn't look very bright in his mind. I'm not favored. But he's very tricky, and the food in the imperial kitchen seems to be tired of eating, and he often sends the little eunuch next to him to ask me for recipes."

It turns out that the legendary foodie is this second prince

"You said that his brain is not smart?" Yin Yin disagreed, "I can think of how the person in the game just now has a very smart mind."

Linglong just glanced at her secretly, "It's better not to ask so many things about the palace."

Ow! I understand! Gong fight! ! Fight for the throne! ! That second prince is just pretending to be crazy and selling stupid to protect himself!

Yin Yin was inexplicably excited.

"He just said he ran away from marriage?" The second prince ran away from home, and the reason was to escape marriage. It seems that the palace should be very lively.

Linglong thought for a while and said, "I heard that it seems that the eldest lady of the Chen family was betrothed to him. Although the Chen family has been an official for three generations and is considered a prominent family in Beijing, it actually has no real power in the court. It seems that the second prince is really not very optimistic."

Alas, this second prince is really pitiful. Not only does he have to pretend to be mad and foolish and be looked down upon, but now he has to be forced into marriage to the point of running away from home.

Yin Yin looked at Linglong and said bitterly: "Life is already so difficult, let's not expose him."

Linglong: "..."

He didn't intend to dismantle the second prince, otherwise he wouldn't have let him go just now.

The two walked around the street again and were ready to go to lunch.

When they came to the Eight Immortals Building, Yin Yin and Linglong had just followed Xiao Er up the second floor when they saw a familiar bright yellow figure eating the drunken chicken in front of them with a moved face.

Really moved my nose and tears!

How many years have you eaten meat? ! !

Yin Yin felt that he had really gained a lot of knowledge this time, and this was the conscience of the foodie world.

Yin Yin felt that this second prince was really interesting. She couldn't help but evoke a friendly smile at the corner of her mouth. She sat opposite He Liankong, "Hey, local tyrant, let's be friends~"
