“This porcelain cup is a little strange…”

The moment he picked up the porcelain cup, the old man immediately frowned and muttered to himself.

However, after hearing this, Sun Zhi, who had been silently observing from the side, was immediately overjoyed.

From the looks of it, this thing was fake!

This way, he heaved a sigh of relief. He had made a bet with that little bastard from the Lin family just now. If what the other party took was true, wouldn’t he smash his car?

It was not a big deal to smash it. After all, he had only spent more than 40,000 on that lousy car. Not only was it expensive, but it was also filled with problems. If not for his reputation, he would not have driven this lousy car.

However, if this was really appraised as the real thing, wouldn’t that mean that his knowledge was insufficient? At that time, he would be embarrassed.

Now, it seemed that he had been too worried.

Thinking about this kid’s background, how could he have a real Yuanqing Flower Vase?

However, just as he was feeling proud, Elder Wang’s words immediately dumbfounded him.

“It’s a miracle! It’s really a miracle! I didn’t expect there to be such a perfect Yuanqing Flower Vase passed down! This is a national treasure!”

Elder Wang, who had been carefully checking for more than ten minutes, carefully held the porcelain cup with both hands. He was suddenly so excited that his face turned red and he praised a miracle.

“Kid, this thing of yours is really something. To be honest, I’ve lived for so long, but this is the first time I’ve seen an ancient Yuanqing Flower Vase Peony Cup that’s so well preserved!”

Lin Yi was not too surprised by the old man’s evaluation result. After all, it was a product of the system.

Looking at the excited old man, Lin Yi chuckled and told him everything he had read online last night.

“Heh heh, to be honest, Old Master, when I first saw this thing, I was also shocked. In the beginning, I even thought that it was a modern imitation, mainly because this thing was perfectly preserved. However, later on, through my observation, regardless of the craftsmanship, porcelain surface, ocher color, or the signature, it undoubtedly shows that this is not an imitation.”

Hearing Lin Yi’s words, Elder Wang immediately nodded. At the same time, he looked at Lin Yi with admiration.

Looking at this kid’s calm appearance and the words he said, Elder Wang thought to himself that this kid’s appraisal level was very high.

“The new generation surpasses the old. Kid, you have good eyesight. In the beginning, I was also deceived by the appearance of this item. If I didn’t look carefully, it would have been a waste. Haha.”

While they were talking, the door suddenly opened. Then, a very gentle middle-aged man in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses walked in.

Seeing a group of people surrounding the resting area, he immediately frowned.

“What’s going on? What happened? Oh, haha, it’s you, Uncle Wang. I was wondering why there were so many people around.”

When they separated and saw the old man talking to Lin Yi, the person immediately smiled.

At this moment, when the surrounding staff saw who it was, they hurriedly greeted him.

“Hello, Chairman Zhuang.”

The middle-aged man smiled and nodded at everyone, then continued to look at the old man in the field.

At this moment, an unbelievable cry suddenly sounded from behind him.

“What? Elder Wang, you said that this cup is real?? This is impossible! This is definitely impossible! How can the Lin family have such a treasure?! Elder Wang, take a closer look. Don’t be deceived by this kid!”

Sun Zhi had just recovered from his shock and looked at the porcelain cup in Elder Wang’s hand in disbelief.

However, when he heard Sun Zhi’s words, the old man who was originally smiling and standing up to greet the chairman immediately had a dark expression. He looked at Sun Zhi with a trace of displeasure.

“You mean to say that you’re questioning my standards?”

As soon as he said this, Sun Zhi immediately realized that he had said something wrong, but he really did not believe that Lin Yi had the real Yuanqing Flower Vase.

After all, that thing was too precious. A Yuanqing Flower Vase could very well be worth his life savings.

Also, if the Lin family had the Yuanqing Flower Vase, how could his wife show off in front of Ye Xiao’e in the future?

Then, wouldn’t the feeling of being superior that he had finally found in front of Old Lin disappear?

For a moment, Sun Zhi thought of many things.

However, the reality was always cruel.

Just as he was about to explain, the refined middle-aged man beside him frowned and said to Sun Zhi, “Manager Sun, don’t talk nonsense. Uncle Wang has done appraisals for so many years and has yet to make a mistake. Hurry up and apologize to him.”

Hearing his boss say this, no matter how unwilling he was, Sun Zhi could only admit defeat. After all, he still had to stay at the job.

However, before he could speak, Elder Wang waved his hand with a cold expression.

“Hmph, there’s no need to apologize. If you have the time, you should master more basic knowledge.”

Elder Wang’s words immediately made Sun Zhi’s face flush red. The others also found it funny.

One had to know that Sun Zhi had said this to Lin Yi before. In the end, this sentence landed on him so quickly. This was a huge mockery.

After saying that, Elder Wang turned to look at Lin Yi with a warm smile.

“I’ve embarrassed myself in front of you, little brother. Come, let me introduce you. This is our Antique Pavilion’s Boss Zhuang. If you plan to sell this treasure, I believe Boss Zhuang will be willing to pay a reasonable price.”

Hearing the old man’s introduction, the gentle middle-aged man nodded and smiled at Lin Yi. Then, he politely stretched out his hand and said, “Heh heh, what boss? Little brother, if you don’t mind, just call me Brother Zhuang. Uncle Wang is right. If you’re willing to sell, our Antique Pavilion will give you a satisfactory price.”

Although he was not present just now, through this conversation and seeing the blue and white porcelain cup in Elder Wang’s hand, Boss Zhuang immediately understood something.

Seeing this, Lin Yi stretched out his hand to shake the other party’s hand and smiled politely.

“Haha, then I’ll call you Brother Zhuang. To be honest, I planned to sell this thing today. However, there was a small conflict during this period and I made a small bet with your Manager Sun under everyone’s witness. Therefore, Brother Zhuang, wait a moment. How about I settle the matter first before discussing the price?”
