"Little junior sister! Don't always mention the whole crab banquet yesterday. I've eaten it all. Please concentrate on watching the things." Zhou Xia finally felt a little impatient and said loudly to Su Xiaoru, who was still immersed in her nostalgia and absent-minded in her image catalogues.

"But, it's really delicious! The taste is so wonderful. Senior brother, didn't you praise it at that time?" As soon as he said that he was full of strength, Su Xiaoru was almost drooling.

But then, she became depressed again, "It's a pity that it's too expensive. If I had to go there once a year, it would be nice. And after yesterday's whole crab banquet, she couldn't eat well these days, so I was worried!"

"Isn't your ultimate goal to have such a big meal every day? It's just awesome to motivate you. Now you should learn the appraisal knowledge. No matter whether you are an appraiser in the future or find yourself a bargain, you don't have some solid skills and want to eat such a big meal every day, but it's absolutely impossible." Knowing that she is a big foodie, Zhou Xia took the opportunity to motivate her.

"Even if you have an annual salary of one million like Senior Brother Zhou, it is still far from enough!" Su Xiaoru still seemed a little decadent. Food was too tempting to her, and the sequelae brought by her was quite a lot.

"If you don't work hard, don't go to the mess every year. Don't think about the mess. Hurry up and study it carefully. You are still waiting for you to cook at noon! I think your cooking skills are no worse than the chefs of the whole crab banquet, and I feel at ease when I eat it." Zhou Xia was speechless to her. This guy is really a typical delicious mouth. Last night, she and Xu Liuxin, two girls, don't look petite, but they eat the most and the happiest. Xu Yaohui is really willing to do it. They order it when they like it. In the end, no one consumes an average of 1,000 yuan. Not to mention the poor student Su Xiaoru. For Zhou Xia, who earns an annual salary of one million, it is not realistic to eat like this every day.

"Really? Hehe. Senior brother, let me tell you, my cooking skills have not been fully displayed yet!" When it comes to food, Su Xiaoru felt that she couldn't stop her mouth. She was quite confident in her cooking skills.

Zhou Xia fooled her with good words, and felt that if she continued to talk about it, her IQ tended to decline, which was not a good sign.

In the morning, Zhou Xia went to the ghost market alone and gained nothing, although this is the norm. It is not a waste of time to increase experience and give a sense of existence. However, Zhou Xia still felt a little unhappy when he failed to get real things.

Just now, at this moment, he asked Su Xiaoru to cheer up as well and carefully study the auction catalog.

Seeing that she was still in a low mood, Zhou Xia encouraged her and said, "Xiao Ru, you have to read this auction catalog carefully. Maybe there is a chance to find a bargain at a low price. You can first mark the things you like. We will go to the scene to see. If it is a real thing and can be bought at a low price, we will join the stock and raise the shares together. In this way, your big meal will be settled. At that time, you can also invite Xin'er to eat together."

After hearing this, Su Xiaoru's eyes shone brightly and stared at Zhou Xia and said, "Senior Brother, are you taking this seriously?"

"Did I keep my word?" Zhou Xia asked her back.

Su Xiaoru laughed, as if she had seen countless hairy crabs in front of her, narrowing into a line, and she was almost drooling. "No, that's not, it's just that I don't have the capital! I can't even pay the deposit for the auction. Senior brother is generous and willing to let me buy it together. I'm so happy. Senior brother Zhou, you are eating meat, so I'll just drink some soup with you."

"Then let me be serious now." Zhou Xia feels that it is easy to kidnap Su Xiaoru, but it is not so easy to raise her. I guess the person who kidnap her will regret it. With her, she has no strong family background, and she will probably be poor. This also makes Zhou Xia feel that Alexander and Su Xiaoru are just delicious. If it is those who love to buy luxury goods, the expenses will be even greater. Not to mention those who come from a wealthy family like Liu Yuqing, who has no financial strength, it is better not to go high.

When Su Xiaoru turns her desire for food into motivation, she is also very motivated when she learns seriously.

However, what made Zhou Xia smile a little bitterly was that she took it seriously to study those low-priced things first.

Su Xiaoru naturally had her plan. She had no money in her hands now and could not pay too high prices. If it were those who often cost 100,000 million, she would definitely not have her share. If Zhou Xia paid 99,000 yuan and she paid 1,000 yuan to get in, it would be meaningless. She couldn't make a lot of money and was a bit out of reach for a big meal.

The best investment place for her is still those items that start at low prices or are simply auctioned without a reserve price. She also thought beautifully that if she could buy Pan Tianshou's "Orchid Picture" like Zhou Xia and Xu Yaohui yesterday, she would sell it for 100,000 yuan.

After such thoughts, Su Xiaoru became more and more motivated. Unfortunately, she didn't find anything of special value after one morning.

Then, she went to the kitchen to cook honestly. She bought a lot of vegetables yesterday. She followed Xu Yaohui and the others to have a full crab banquet in the evening, so she didn't have to go out to buy it on that day. Zhou Xia liked to eat the food she cooked, which also made her feel a lot of accomplishment. She also thought that even if she couldn't eat a big meal like a full crab banquet every day, it would be nice to do it every day.

What’s rare is that Zhou Xia also sighed the same way. He also thought that the crabs last night were good, but it was not realistic to eat them every day! It was still such a home-cooked side dish, which was more in line with his appetite. "If there were experts like the junior sister cooking every day, they wouldn’t be tired of eating them."

Su Xiaoru took his words as the best compliment for her cooking skills, and said that she would continue to work hard and continue to train her cooking skills. Of course, she still said, "It would be best if she could have a full crab banquet like last night every month."

Zhou Xia said that if she could hold on, she would treat her to a big meal next month.

This made Su Xiaoru very happy and she picked up a lot of good dishes into Zhou Xia’s bowl one after another.

Zhou Xia even laughed in her heart. Su Xiaoru's special chef is too cheap, and she doesn't even need a salary, so she can handle it in a big meal.

After having lunch beautifully, Su Xiaoru did not rest and continued to fight against the auction catalogues to search for items with good quality and low price. As soon as food is involved, the energy bursting out from her petite body is brilliant and colorful, making people unable to look at it.

Zhou Xia continued his work slowly. His main purpose was to find the authentic products from various auction companies in the autumn auctions and get started at that time.

"Senior brother, guess what I found?"

When Zhou Xiazheng was competing with Xu Beihong's "Eight Horses Pictures" in auction catalogue, Su Xiaoru started to shout.

"Can you really find a great authentic product for junior sister!" Zhou Xia guessed like this.

"Hehe, you have to judge this for yourself by your own judgment!" Su Xiaoru pushed the photo from the auction catalog she had just read and pointed it to Zhou Xia.

Seeing that there was no valuation above, Zhou Xia asked, "It's an auction without a reserve price!"

"Yes, for us, things that are auctioned without a base price are the most suitable. Moreover, this auction company is in Donghai and is not a particularly famous auction company. I think we have a great chance to buy it." Su Xiaoru's little abacus was still quite good.

When Zhou Xia heard this, he immediately smiled slightly and thought to himself, it would be great if it was really as good as you said.

He also looked carefully to see what good things were that made Su Xiaoru so excited and happy.

It didn't matter when he saw it, but after he looked, his eyes couldn't move away and his heart was churning.

This is an ancient painting.

It was not framed, and it was auctioned with another painting.

Or auction without a reserve price.

Generally, in this case, it will not be a particularly good thing, and it is more likely to be a fake. Even if it is a genuine product, its value will not be too high, otherwise it will not be put into an auction without a reserve price. If it is a high-value thing, no one bids for it or is bidding at a low price, the seller's losses will be too great.

But this painting is not very similar to ordinary ancient paintings.

Although there are not many collector's bell marks on it, the inscriptions and content on this painting alone are enough to shock Zhou Xia.

"Love in the Forest" is the last work of Ni Zan, a great painter of the Yuan Dynasty.

Anyone who has studied ancient Chinese calligraphy and painting works should know that this is a very famous painting.

It is said that it is famous because it is indeed a painting with a definite record. In the Biography of Ni Zan, there is a specific description of his last work, "Lepu Linju Tu".

Fang Xun of the Qing Dynasty mentioned in his book "The Painting of Shan Jingju" that Yunlin's "Lepu Linju" has six frames, sparse and dense, not just one pattern. The brush and ink are both brilliant, so the king has fairy bones.

Yang Xin, former vice president of the Palace Museum and an expert in ancient calligraphy and painting appraisal, wrote an article detailing the "Lepu Linju Map", pointing out that it was Ni Zan's last painting during his lifetime, which was a masterpiece.

However, there are very few people who are destined to witness the original painting. It can be said that in recent hundreds of years, few people have seen its traces.

Unexpectedly, such a painting would appear at the auction of such a less-known auction company.

Is this a missed or a condom?

For a moment, Zhou Xia couldn't figure it out.

He only knew that if this painting was genuine, it would definitely not be a priceless auction without a reserve price. The symbolic 100 yuan is definitely the biggest "leak" at this autumn auction. Its real value, let alone a hundred or eighty thousand, is not as expensive as millions. I am really sorry for Ni Zan's name.

Su Xiaoru, who was tempted by food, has completely stimulated her potential and was able to find such a painting from the paper and miscellaneous documents that were auctioned without a reserve price.
