The owner of the shop suddenly became dignified, not because she had a conscience, but because the old man who had walked into her shop was not simple.
Elder Chen was a regular customer of the antique street. Most of the old shops knew him and probably knew his identity.
Before he retired, Elder Chen was a major general in the Huaxia army. After he retired, he enjoyed the treatment of a lieutenant general. Wherever he went, he would be followed by plainclothes guards. For example, there was a cold middle-aged man in casual clothes standing at the entrance of the Treasure House.
The scariest thing was that Old Chen's son was the commander of the southeast war zone in China. He was a general with real power and the pillar of the country!
"Little Zhang, is there anything new in the shop that is suitable for little girls to play with? It's my granddaughter's birthday soon, so I have to prepare a small gift for her."
Old Chen said calmly to the Lady Boss, but his tone could not help but carry a trace of killing intent.
This was the baleful aura that Old Chen had accumulated over the years of his military life. People with ulterior motives probably wouldn't have the guts to look him in the eye.
"Yes, Elder Chen, please sit down for a while and have a sip of tea. I'll bring it to you immediately.”The lady boss respectfully guided the old man to his seat and poured him some fragrant tea. Then, she hurriedly went to the shelf to arrange the newly arrived precious jewelry together before sending it to Old Chen.
Old Chen sat on the comfortable leather sofa. He picked up the tea and sniffed it. He frowned slightly and took a small sip before putting it down quietly.
Just as the lady boss was about to present a tray of expensive jewelry, Old Chen was suddenly attracted by a loose pile of "waste paper" on the sofa."Eh? That's Tang."
The lady boss was shocked when she saw the " waste paper " on the sofa. She quickly put down the tray and explained nervously," Old Chen, I'm sorry. This was left behind by a previous customer. I forgot to clean it up."
With that, the lady boss was about to pick up the waste paper.
"Stop!"
Old Chen suddenly shouted loudly.
The middle-aged man in plain clothes who was standing outside the shop appeared next to Old Chen in a flash. A small pistol appeared in his hand. He pointed it at the lady boss and roared," Are you courting death?!”
"I... I didn't do anything…" The Lady Boss was frightened. Her voice was filled with tears, and she did not dare to make any movements.
"What are you doing? Put the gun down! Who allowed you to draw your gun?" Old Chen glared at the plainclothes guard and shouted," What is this place? Do we need to use weapons?"
Only then did the plainclothes staff officer realize that it was a misunderstanding. He put away his gun awkwardly, but he was frightened and did not dare to go far. He stood at the side and remained vigilant.
"Little Zhang, I'm sorry for scaring you just now.”
Old Chen apologized softly, then walked over to pick up the ball of paper on the sofa. He carefully unfolded it and looked at it carefully.
Very soon, Old Chen sighed." The composition is simple and clear. The strokes are mostly thin and strong, like gossamer strokes. It's fine but not weak. It's strong but rhythmic. It's a combination of hardness and softness. It's indeed Tang Yin's style! He did not expect that there was actually someone in this world who could copy Tang Yin's " Spring Mountain Companion Axis " to such an extent!”
Only then did the lady boss understand that Elder Chen wanted to pick up the manuscript and study it carefully. No wonder he told her to stop.
You really scared me to death!
At this moment, the plainclothes guard suddenly interjected," Elder Chen, doesn't Miss like Tang Yin's paintings the most? If she could buy an authentic Tang Yin painting as a birthday present for Miss, she would definitely be very happy!”
Elder Chen glared at him." I don't know about Xiaoshang's hobbies? Do I need you to say anything?"
The plainclothes guard instantly shut up. He knew that Elder Chen's attitude was so bad because he was blaming him for pointing a gun at ordinary people.
"So Miss Chen likes Tang Yin's authentic paintings!”The lady boss raised her eyebrows and said with a smile," Elder Chen, I know where you can buy Tang Yin's authentic works. Do you want me to introduce you to him?”
"Thank you for your kindness." Elder Chen waved his hand and sighed." Xiao Shang has a big appetite. She doesn't even care about ordinary paintings unless it's a huge vertical scroll. However, such treasures only appear in auctions. They're rare!”
The lady boss felt a little helpless when she heard this. Tang Yin's authentic works were now treasures that were highly sought after by major collectors. Who knew when a huge vertical scroll would appear in the auction?
That was a rare collection that even money could not buy!
Suddenly, the Lady Boss remembered something and quickly said to Old Chen," Old Chen! I remember now. There was a young man who seemed to have a scroll with him just now. He even said that he was going to the auction house!
The manuscript of the " Spring Mountain Companion Scroll " was left behind by him!
What he had on him was very likely the authentic work of " Spring Mountain Companion Axis "!”
" What?!"
Elder Chen stood up abruptly. His eyes widened as he asked excitedly," Is what you said true?”
The Lady Boss nodded repeatedly and pointed in the direction of the auction house. She was so excited that she could not speak.

[Note: The Spring Tree and Autumn Frost in Tang Bohu's Autumn Fragrance is based on Tang Yin's Spring Mountain Companion Scroll.] As there was no such movie in Parallel World, the name Spring Tree Autumn Frost was not popular.
