Chapter 455 – The roomful of elderlies were about to roll on the floor and laugh. (2)
“The name of this piece is Coming from the East.”
She placed the painting on the table with one hand and, with the other, handed a note over the Gu Jiangxin.
“Deposit the payment into this account.”
Gu Jiangxin took the note from him.
Recipient: Gao Xiu-e.
He gave her a smile immediately and temporarily put away the odd sensation that he had just a moment ago. “Ah, so you are Master Gao. Your reputation precedes you.”
Having said that, he quickly look for the stamp on the painting and was finally reassured when he saw the familiar red stamp that said Ink Painting Guru.
None of the elderlies here was friendly toward him.
Must because he mentioned that this mansion belonged to him and they felt threatened.
But, how else would he have been able to get this painting?
Gu Jiangxin looked over at the table when he thought about this.
“What a painting, this Coming from the East!”
The sun was high and the water flowed from the east.
The man had on a yellow robe with a beautiful woman in his house.
The meaning of the painting… was simply incredible. This was way better than the three at the exhibition!
As far as fengshuiwas concerned, water signified money. Wealth was coming from the east.
The sun being in the middle of the sky. That was the brightest time of the day.
Historically, who all but the emperor could wear a yellow robe?
This was saying that the man in the painting was already very high up in his career and also have a harmonious marriage with a beautiful woman.
What more could a man possibly ask for?
Enough!
That was enough!
As calm of a person as Gu Jiangxin was, he couldn’t help but smiled in excitement.
The meaning of this painting was perfect for someone like Mayor Liu!
“Okay. I will have my secretary deposit the payment for Master Gao right away! Thank you so much, Master Gao!”
Gu Jiangxin couldn’t barely contain his excitement.
“My Jingde Realty has another standalone mansion not too far from here. Please feel free to let me know should Master desire to hold any events in the future. You can use it for free every week! And you will not need to share this location with other organizations going forward!”
He had given them the stick. Now it was time to give them the carrot.
Gu Jiangxin had always been good at manipulating others.
All of the elderlies were snickering secretly. They did not, however, let that show. They merely praised the painting profusely.
“You have good taste, Boss Gu.”
“This painting was certainly thoughtful and detailed. Congratulations, Boss Gu, for coming into such a gem!”
“This can be passed down for generations to come!”
Gu Jiangxin was even more proud of himself. He strongly believed that his offering of the olive branch had earned him good will with these artists!
Boss Zhou, who bragged that he was an expert in art appreciation, had further commented on the “smoothness of the brushstrokes”, “free style but complete”, and the “liveliness of the characters. That had reassured Gu Jiangxin. Now he believed that 30 million was certain a lot of money, but it was well spent nevertheless.
He left happily while carrying the painting carefully with him after making his payment.
All of the elderlies in the house were about to laugh until they were rolling on the floor!
After Gu Jiangxin was gone, none of the grandpas could keep themselves from smiling.
“Ah, the young certain can come up with ideas faster.”
“This can certainly fall into the category of a satire painting!”
“Hahaha. I can’t wait to find out his reaction after he found out the meaning of the painting!”
Some of them even took pictures of the painting and said that they were going to study it in details later on and wanted to paint something similar for fun in the future.
“Little Shishi. I will have my daughter transfer the money to you when I get home. I don’t know how to work these apps.”
Gao Xiu-e did not forget about the matters of the money before the gathering was over.
“Whenever. There is no rush.” Gu Shishi smiled. “This was certainly unexpected fortune.”
“Hah! You are so right!”
All of the elderlies laughed with her.
