Zheng Kaida hurriedly approached the sword handle and observed it carefully. The reason why this sword is so valuable is because it is a very complete ancient sword. If the sapphire on the sword's head is not one with the ancient sword, the value will naturally be much greater.
If it decreases, he will suffer a big loss.
The other two customers came over and looked at each other suspiciously. Zheng Kaida also had the same expression. None of the three people noticed that this piece of sapphire was added later. The patina on the surface of the sapphire was very pure.
Looking at the sapphire, this is also an old item with a wide opening.
When Zheng Kaida raised his head, Su Zhan also came over to take a look, and finally shook his head, looking at Li Yang with some pity.
Although Su Zhan is not an expert, he has worked in Rongbaozhai for more than ten years and still has a certain eye for seeing things. How can he see that the chilong sapphire and the ancient sword are integrated? Su Zhan does not think that he can't compare with Li in terms of eyesight.
Yang, after all, Li Yang is too young.
"Joke, you said it was added later, then it was added later? How old are you, a young boy, how can you say such nonsense!"
Mr. Hou didn't look at the handle of the sword at all. He was very confident in his own eyesight, and from the beginning he didn't believe what evidence Li Yang could give. So when Li Yang's explanation came out, he immediately stood up and laughed.
Li Yang, in his opinion, Li Yang's so-called evidence is really ridiculous and has no credibility at all.
Mr. Hou's contemptuous attitude made Li Yang even more angry. Li Yang looked at Mr. Hou coldly and took out a small notebook from his inner pocket. He only got this small notebook last night. Unexpectedly,
You can use it today.
"What qualifications do I have? This is my qualification. I admit that I am not as good as you in terms of ancient calligraphy, but in terms of ancient jade, you may not be able to beat me!"
Li Yang threw out his ID book. Mr. Hou's face turned even more ugly. He was on the verge of breaking out and didn't even look at Li Yang's ID book.
Su Zhan hurriedly picked up Li Yang's ID book, but he was thinking about how to invite Li Yang out first. Now it seems that Li Yang has completely offended Mr. Hou, especially Li Yang's last sentence was more provocative.
It's strange that Mr. Hou's temperament can bear it.
"Mr. Li, uh..."
Su Zhan was about to say something to Li Yang, but he stood there strangely blank, his face full of disbelief, and his eyes looked straight at the information in the ID book.
Su Zhan's attitude aroused the curiosity of Zheng Kaida and the other two customers. Zheng Kaida and Su Zhan came closer, turned their heads, and saw the information on Li Yang's ID book.
The next moment, Zheng Kaida was also stunned, with the same expression on his face as Su Zhan, also full of disbelief.
Unlike Su Zhan, Zheng Kaida knew Li Yang relatively well. This was Li Yang's first trip to Beijing, and he only arrived last night. When did he become an expert on ancient jade at the Palace Museum?
Seeing the expressions of the two people, the two customers couldn't help but came over curiously. Both of them also showed expressions of disbelief, but more of them were shocked. They both looked back at Li Yang in horror.
The attitudes of the four people also aroused Mr. Hou's curiosity. The staff inside were also curious, but they did not dare to get in front of Su Zhan and take a look. They could only guess what happened.
"Impossible, this is impossible, this must be fake!"
Mr. Hou finally saw the contents of Li Yang's ID book. He was more shocked than the others and shouted repeatedly.
What kind of international joke are you kidding? When did the Palace Museum have such a young expert on ancient jade? What’s more, he knew most of the experts in the Palace Museum, and there was no one like Li Yang.
"How dare you forge the expert certificate from the Palace Museum? Su Zhan, you can't let him go now. You should call the police. I suspect this person has more than a simple purpose!"
A fierce look suddenly appeared on Mr. Hou's face. Su Zhan was slightly startled and took an unnatural step back. He chose to believe Mr. Hou. The experts at the Palace Museum were all old men in their 80s and 80s. There were absolutely no young people like Li Yang.
And they have a top expert on the third floor who is also from the Palace Museum.
Even Zheng Kaida looked at Li Yang with confusion. He also suspected that this certificate was fake. Even if Li Yang really had this level of expertise, he had never had the time to apply for this expert certificate. This was the expert certificate from the Palace Museum, but
It is not a worthless expert certificate issued randomly by the auction company.
"Is the Palace Museum's expert certificate so easy to forge? You can take a closer look to see if it is a forgery, or you can directly ask someone to verify it. Even if the certificate is forged, my expert code number cannot be forged, right?"
Li Yang sneered and shook his head. This certificate was given to him by Mr. He, and it could never be forged. However, it was true that Li Yang, an expert, had never been to the Palace Museum once.
"Mr. Li is right. Mr. Hou, please don't be angry. Wait a moment. I will verify it right away. I will know the result soon!"
Su Zhan nodded repeatedly. Li Yang's attitude made him a little suspicious. Seeing that Li Yang was so confident, could it be that he was really an expert on ancient jade from the Palace Museum? However, no matter whether this certificate was true or false, he did not dare to handle it privately.
It's okay to say that at most Li Yang should go to the police station. If it is true, offending an expert from the Palace Museum would be much more serious than offending Mr. Hou.
After Su Zhan finished speaking, he hurriedly walked out. It was actually very easy to verify. The expert from the Palace Museum was on the third floor. Just ask him and you would understand.
"Li Yang, honestly, are you telling the truth?"
After Su Zhan left, Zheng Kaida quietly walked to Li Yang and asked in a low voice, the identity on the certificate book was too shocking. The experts from the Palace Museum can be said to be the top experts in the country.
"Do I need to fake it? In fact, I didn't know it before. Mr. He did it for me. He just gave it to me yesterday!"
Li Yang shook his head gently and replied in a low voice. When he heard that Mr. He had done it for Li Yang, Zheng Kaida's expression immediately changed, and his suspicion immediately turned into conviction. At the same time, Zheng Kaida looked at Mr. Hou with ill intentions. He should have known it earlier.
Li Yang has such an identity, he is not afraid of offending Mr. Hou in front of him at all. Li Yang's expert title is much more powerful than Mr. Hou's self-proclaimed expert title.
I must make a complaint later. This Hou Laoyi is looking down on his customers. They must let Rong Baozhai give an explanation. Zheng Kaida believes that even Rong Baozhai will not easily offend the Palace Museum. With this expert status, Li Yang is equivalent to the Palace Museum.
When the time comes, even if Li Yang doesn't pursue the case, the Palace Museum will probably pursue it.
In less than five minutes, Su Zhan hurried back. There was still sweat on Su Zhan's forehead, but his face was full of shock. Li Yang's identity was actually real. At this time, he finally understood.
Why do I feel that Li Yang's name is familiar? The news about Li Yang's great success in Nanyang not long ago has already spread to Beijing, and Su Zhan has also heard about it.
"how's it going?"
Su Zhan's expression gave Mr. Hou a very bad premonition, and he asked hurriedly. Before Su Zhan turned around, another old man with white hair hurriedly walked in from behind.
"Mr. Liu, why are you here too?"
Seeing this old man, Mr. Hou, who was full of pride and contempt just now, immediately showed a flattering smile, lowered his head and greeted the newly arrived old man.
"Lao Hou, why are you here too?"
Mr. Liu glanced at Mr. Hou in surprise. The white-haired old man didn't know what happened just now. He came here just to see Li Yang.
"I'll talk about it later!" Mr. Liu suddenly waved his hand, looked at the people in front of him, and finally his eyes fell on Li Yang.
"Are you Li Yang? The Li Yang who first recognized Zhou Fangzi Gangyu? Mr. He's apprentice?"
Mr. Liu looked at Li Yang carefully. He knew that there was a young ancient jade expert in the Palace Museum. He also discussed it with some old friends several times and was very doubtful about Li Yang's strength. But Li Yang could
They recognized Zhou Fang, who even they might not be able to recognize, and was He Lao's disciple. Although they were suspicious, they did not make any objections. They just wanted to see this young man as soon as possible to see if he had any problem.
and their qualifications as experts.
Therefore, as soon as Su Zhan found him and saw Li Yang's real ID book, he immediately came over without even checking the expert code.
Mr. Hou's face instantly turned pale. Li Yang was the first to recognize Zhou Fangzi Gangyu. The impact on him was not big, but the biggest one was the last sentence.
Think about it, there is only one person who can be called He Lao by Mr. Liu. This man has a great reputation in the antique world and has absolute power. If the young man in front of him is really the apprentice of Mr. He, then he will be in big trouble.
.
The other two customers also looked at Li Yang in shock. They didn't know who Mr. He was, but they had heard about Zhou Fangzi Gangyu. This incident can be said to be one of the biggest events in the antique world recently.
The two are antique lovers and also antique jade lovers, so they have heard the rumors for a long time.
But none of them expected that the inconspicuous young man in front of them was the protagonist of this matter. Li Yang, who exposed Zhou Fangzi Gangyu, was exactly like the rumors. This Li Yang was really young and terrifying.
"Hello, I am Li Yang!"
Li Yang nodded lightly, and at the same time bowed slightly to salute. The feeling that Mr. Liu gave Li Yang was completely different from that of Mr. Hou in front of him. There was a deep kindness in Mr. Liu's vicissitudes of life, and you could tell at a glance that he was a highly respected person.
elder.
"Okay, you are so young. The waves behind you in the Yangtze River push the waves ahead. Li Yang, you are very good!"
Mr. Liu smiled and nodded. He was also shocked by Li Yang's youth. He originally heard that Li Yang was young, but he originally thought that no matter how young he was, he must be in his thirties, but he didn't expect that this Li Yang was actually
They are only in their early twenties, and many of these people are still students. How many people really understand antiques, let alone experts.
"Thank you for your praise. I'm just new to the industry and I still need support from my seniors!"
Li Yang shook his head hurriedly, but his words made Zheng Kaida and the others roll their eyes. You have become an expert and you still modestly say that you are new to the industry. If you are just new to the industry, then who are we?
