When Lin Haitao and his ancestors approached, Jiahao behaved courteously and courteously, just like Lin Haitao and the others. Naturally, he did not recognize the old man who was over 10 years old. After all, he had never been involved in the antique business before, otherwise he would definitely

We also got to know each other. He is the Taishan Beidou in the collection world. He must be very famous. Everyone who has been in this industry for many years does not know him. He also has many admirers.

But today Jiahao was lucky enough to meet such an expert in appraising, which is undoubtedly necessary for him, because he has naturally entered the antique industry, and the most urgent thing for him at the moment is to learn from his apprenticeship.

It will also be of great benefit to learn the most basic appraisal knowledge. If you are at Lin Haitao's level, and coupled with his magical eyesight, it will be no problem to appraise ordinary antiques.

After Grandmaster came over, Lin Haitao and the others kept shouting "Grandpa" and "Master", and they all looked respectful.

Although Jiahao has not yet called him "grandfather" or anything like that, he looks at Lin Haitao's eyes and follows him wherever Lin Haitao goes.

To be honest, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous at this moment, because he was worried that the ancestor with extraordinary eyesight would see through him as a fake apprentice, and if so, he would be in an extremely embarrassing situation.

"Brother Yao, don't be too nervous." Lin Haitao seemed to see Jiahao's uneasiness, so he whispered comfort in his ear.

Jiahao calmed down, nodded and responded softly: "Yes, I understand."

With Lin Haitao's repeated encouragement, he immediately cheered up. At this point, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and carry on.

Fortunately, he knew a little bit about the treasures he was about to appraise, so he had some advantages over other apprentices of the same level, but he didn't know if the two "Han Seals" were used to test their skills.

At present, Jiahao, Lin Haitao and other apprentices of three generations or below formed a team. Everyone stood neatly in front of the Eight Immortals table where the iron box with the Chinese seal was placed, waiting for instructions.

"Is everyone here?" The Patriarch, who was sitting in the chief seat, glanced at He Qing and the others, but his eyes did not stay on Jahao, indicating that he didn't pay attention to anything.

Perhaps due to his age, the Patriarch's voice was slightly trembling when he spoke, but his tone did not lose its dignity.

"Master, everyone who is supposed to come tonight has come." One person replied respectfully.

"Then let's get started." Grandmaster had a little trouble speaking, so he simply went straight to the topic.

"Yes, Master." A white-haired old man nodded in agreement. Then he looked at Jiahao and the others and said solemnly: "Did everyone hear it? I won't go into details. Everything will follow the old rules. Now I

The roll call will be taken. Those whose names are called will take a step forward and prepare to start the appraisal. Those who pass the test can receive a gift specially prepared by your ancestor."

"Xiao Wanfang..." Soon, he began to read names from the list he had already taken out.

When I read "Xiao Wanfang", I saw a younger woman standing up casually.

That girl, Jiahao, had a better first impression of her. She not only looked very beautiful, but also had a unique temperament, which easily attracted the attention of men.

"Guo Chengming..." The white-haired old man read out a familiar name again. He had just met that person, but the other person looked arrogant in front of him and did not look down on him at all.

Although Guo Chengming looks down on Duan Gang, who is not enterprising, but now that Jiahao is participating in this "appraisal competition" in the name of Duan Gang, he must take up this role and play it well to avoid Lin Haitao and other people who support him.

disappointment.

"Duan Gang..." The old man finally read Duan Gang's name.

At that moment, Jiahao felt inexplicably excited, and he immediately took a step forward, looking calm and unhurried.

But when he stood next to Guo Chengming and the others, several people secretly laughed and glanced at him with disdain in their eyes.

But Jiahao himself didn't seem to notice it. He was calm and calm, waiting patiently for the test to begin. Although his real identification knowledge was far less rich than the person with the lowest level present, his identification ability was

Others cannot learn from it.

You may not succeed if you play, but you will definitely not succeed if you don't play!

"Then the master said there is a reward for winning the competition, or what kind of reward it is?" Jiahao thought secretly. Although the man did not explain what kind of prizes the ancestor had set, he thought about it. The reward must be related to antiques, maybe a

This book, or maybe something else about learning appraisal knowledge, it is possible to give a precious antique as a gift, which is very tempting.

Jiahao is already very interested. The only thing he hopes now is that the treasure he wants to identify is related to the two seals, so that he can be more confident. Otherwise, he will just be confused, because he basically has no professional identification knowledge.

The reason why he was able to pick up leaks before was all due to his magical eyes. If an object did not emit "treasure light", there was usually nothing he could do.

In the end, a total of five or six people were called out, but Lin Haitao was not named, indicating that his appraisal level was not at the same level as Duan Gang's, and should be one level higher.

"Okay, you six, get ready and start looking at things." Finally, the old man shouted in a loud voice, "Now I will take out two things from the 'treasure box'.

Write down which item is authentic and which item is fake. If you judge correctly, wait for the results to be announced before further analysis."

After he finished speaking, he turned back to ask for instructions from the Patriarch. When the Patriarch nodded, he opened the box and carefully took out two things.

"Wow~~"

When the two items were put out, everyone exclaimed. Jiahao was even more surprised, because it was clearly visible that the two treasures placed there were actually the two treasures that still exuded the white "treasure light".

"The golden seal.

"How come it's such a coincidence?!" Jiahao secretly wondered, "Those two Han seals are both genuine, and both dates are correct. How come one is genuine and the other is a fake?!"

This puzzled him, and he only thought that it was possible that even Lin Haitao and his ancestors had misjudged the genuine Han seal for a fake Han seal, but this should not be possible. The other party was a master in the field of appraisal, and his vision was so sharp, and

How could it be a wrong judgment?

"Maybe they set the question like this on purpose? Fortunately, they misled everyone at the beginning and made everyone's thinking more confusing, so that they can better measure a person's true appraisal level." Jia Haofu thought again, besides,

He couldn't think of any other possibilities.

"You guys should read it clearly first, and then write the answers on the paper and give it to me." The white-haired old man said while handing out papers to Jiahao and the others, and He Qing naturally received one.

Regarding the two Han seals, He Qing did not need to observe any more. Observation was of no use. All he had to do was write the answer truthfully on the paper: No. 1 and No. 2 Han seals were both authentic!

The very tense atmosphere lasted for about ten minutes. Jiahao and the others handed in their answer sheets one after another. Jiahao could have been the first to hand in his answer sheet, but in order to cover up, he handed in his answer sheet in the middle. No one saw anything unusual at all.

"Okay, everyone has written, let's start reviewing the answers." The old man nodded with satisfaction and said.

For a moment, the "Jianbao Studio" was silent and extremely quiet. Everyone pricked up their ears and listened to the old man read out the answer.

"Xiao Wanfang, No. 1 is genuine, No. 2 is a fake."

"Guo Chengming, No. 2 is genuine, No. 1 is a fake."

…

The old man read on calmly. When he was almost finished, the faces of the elders standing aside all showed expressions of regret. The ancestor also had a look of disappointment on his face. The answer was obviously not theirs.

want.

But when they heard the old man read Jiahao's answer, everyone looked surprised.

"Duan Gang, number one is genuine, and number two is also genuine!" The old man paused and read loudly.

As soon as these words came out, Guo Chengming and others were in an uproar...

Are they all authentic?

impossible!

This was the first reaction of Guo Chengming and others, and it was also their unwavering judgment from the beginning.

Therefore, when they heard Jiahao's answer, at that moment, Guo Chengming and others booed and looked at Jiahao one after another. Their eyes were all-encompassing, some were disdainful, some were happy, and some were pitiful.

There are also.

Jiahao's answer was undoubtedly an unusual one. Among the six people who participated in the first round of the "Treasure Appraisal Contest", he was the only one to give such an answer. It immediately seemed that he was out of tune with the atmosphere at the scene.

At this moment, not only Guo Chengming and others looked at Jiahao with a strange look, Lin Haitao, who was standing in the row behind, also stared at him, but his eyes were full of anxiety and worry.

"What happened to Brother Yao?" Lin Haitao thought uneasily, "Mr. Hu made it very clear from the beginning. One of the two Han seals is a genuine one and the other is a fake. No matter what he said,

Is it genuine?”

He was a little confused, because in his eyes, Jiahao's appraisal skills were hidden, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to find so many treasures before.

, then he will not take the risk of being reprimanded by the ancestor to bring the other party here tonight and participate in the treasure appraisal activity under his own name.

However, Lin Haitao was only in a hurry and could not help at all. In this situation, Jiahao could only rely on himself to solve all the problems.

"This is everyone's answer." After reading out the answer sheet, the white-haired old man said loudly, "Only one of the six people thinks that the two gold seals are genuine, and the answers of the rest are all true and false."

After that, he specifically glanced at Jiahao in the crowd. His eyes were meaningful, but few people noticed this detail. At this moment, Guo Chengming and other competitors were probably just making fun of He Qing, because his answer was very strange.

This is not in line with the most basic idea of ​​​​setting the question. It was clearly stated at the beginning of the question that one of the two "Han seals" was a fake. If you answer both of them correctly, you must be wrong. In the eyes of Guo Chengming and others,

There is no doubt that they will come, they are just waiting to see He Qing's joke.

Now Guo Chengming and others can't wait to hear the accurate answer. After all, their answers are not consistent. Some people are right, and some people are wrong. Under this situation, they naturally feel nervous. Who doesn't want their answers to be the same?

The standard answer is that not only can you win the appreciation of the ancestors and other seniors, but you can also get awards from the ancestors. The other party has already prepared exquisite prizes. It just depends on who wins.

"Master." The old man suddenly turned around and greeted the ancestor.

The Patriarch didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, and then looked at Jiahao, who was standing there with a calm expression. Jiahao's calmness was in sharp contrast to the impatience of Guo Chengming and others.

Seeing this scene, Lin Haitao, who was standing behind, could not help but frown slightly. He became more and more puzzled. He felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere in front of him. The patriarch and other seniors were obviously paying attention to Jiahao.

His eyes were full of surprise and relief, and Jiahao himself looked confident and showed no signs of panic.

"Is it possible that Brother Yao's answer is correct?!" Lin Haitao thought to himself. At this moment, his thoughts were a little confused, but he would soon be able to hear the standard answer, and everything would become clear later.

"Okay, you all have the answer, so I will announce the correct answer now." The white-haired old man turned around and said solemnly, "This test question is actually not difficult, because both items are open.

People with really good eyesight can usually tell at a glance. These two pure gold Han seals were purchased from the 'Limin Museum'. Of course, there is nothing wrong with them and they are all genuine. From the answers you gave, it seems that

Duan Gang is the only one who got the answer right. Yes, we are not disappointed. There are still some of you whose vision and ideas are not restricted by others and can make your own judgment based on reality. This kind of appraisal spirit is very valuable!"

Before these words were finished, the crowd had already uttered exclamations. Suddenly, pairs of eyes looked at Jiahao again, but the atmosphere before and after was completely different. The original disdain in Guo Chengming's eyes disappeared.

Nothing left, replaced by surprise and envy.

Guo Chengming, who had always looked down on Duan Gang, was even more stunned. He never expected that Jiahao could give such an answer. After a few days of seeing him, the good-for-nothing guy actually had such a unique idea, and his appraisal level suddenly improved by several levels.
