Until Lin Chen completely disappeared in front of them, Mr. Kong didn't fully come back to his senses.
Even though he had personally experienced what had just happened, he still found it hard to believe that everything he had just witnessed was actually true!
A young man in his twenties was able to buy more than a dozen items in succession at the antique market without ever making a mistake!
What kind of genius is this?
You must know that cultural relic appraisal is an increasingly popular profession. This is common sense in cultural relic appraisal.
Because the accumulation of cultural relic appraisal knowledge is a long-term process that takes time. No matter how talented a person is, no matter how gifted he is in cultural relic appraisal, if the knowledge accumulation is not enough, you will not be able to identify many things.
For example, Kong Lao himself spent twenty years before he dared to take on his own role as a master, and forty years before he thought that he had completely mastered the art of appraisal.
But even so, Mr. Kong would still make mistakes sometimes.
But the so-called common sense of Kong Lao had completely lost its effect on the young man just now.
This is really unbelievable, but everything has been verified by Mr. Kong himself. The items in the sack are all genuine, and they were all authenticated by himself!
How did that young man gain such ability?
He was simply born to do the art of identifying cultural relics!
If he had helped, the committee's plan would probably be implemented immediately!
Thinking of this, Mr. Kong suddenly realized that Lin Chen seemed to have left!
He said bad, and immediately gave instructions to the people around him: "Quick! Go catch up with that young man, I want to know his name!"
Several guards rushed out immediately.
But after a while, he came back shaking his head.
"Mr. Kong, that kid seems to have left! You can't see him on the street."
Seeing this, Mr. Kong had no choice but to pin his hopes on the surrounding shops.
"I'm sorry? Does anyone know the name of the young man just now? How can I contact him?"
A group of people looked at each other, but at this moment, Boss Liu in the crowd suddenly raised his hand.
Not long after, Lin Chen, who was on his way back to his apartment, received a phone call.
When he first saw the phone number, Lin Chen thought it was Boss Liu.
But after he answered the phone, he unexpectedly discovered that on the other end of the phone was Mr. Kong, whom he had just separated from.
"Mr. Lin, hello, I'm Kong Yang! I'm taking the liberty to call you. I want to ask Mr. Lin if he is interested in joining our Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee?"
"Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee? Mr. Kong, are you kidding me?" Lin Chen said with some humor: "I know nothing about cultural relics appraisal."
"Mr. Lin, you're welcome."
Mr. Kong said very politely on the phone: "Mr. Lin, your ability to identify cultural relics is the best among the young people I have ever seen. No, even among my generation, there are few people as good as you!"
"With your ability, it would be a huge waste if you don't serve the country."
"So on behalf of the committee, I sincerely invite you and hope that you can join our appraisal committee!"
There were several people around Mr. Kong with envious expressions on their faces.
Like Mr. Kong, they are all members of the appraisal committee.
Seeing Mr. Kong personally inviting Lin Chen to join the committee, they all couldn't help but remember the difficulty they had when they joined the committee.
It was a test that was more difficult than the college entrance examination. These people worked hard to join, and finally succeeded in getting the opportunity.
But now that Lin Chen didn't even have to do anything, and someone invited him personally. It was indeed very irritating.
But they were unable to refute, because no one of them would be able to say with certainty that they could pick out more than a dozen items in the antique market without losing any of them, and that all of them were genuine.
But that young man did it, and with his ability, these people couldn't even think of a single refutation.
However, what disappointed Mr. Kong was that Lin Chen simply rejected him.
"Sorry, Mr. Kong, I have no interest in joining the committee."
Kong Lao looked surprised: "Why? Mr. Lin, our committee is an official organization of the national organization! It is equivalent to the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the antique street! It is a great honor to be one of them and join the committee!"
"I know this, but Mr. Kong, I still have business to do, so I'm afraid I don't have time."
"Business?" Mr. Kong said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, if you are doing business, I'm afraid you have to join our committee. Many of the members of our committee are guests of the rich, and are often invited to replace them."
They appraise objects, and if you join the committee, it will definitely help your business."
"I'm sorry, I don't think so..." Lin Chen shook his head.
…
Finally, Mr. Kong hung up the phone in frustration.
He felt very sorry that he could not invite Lin Chen.
But after listening to Lin Chen's words and getting confirmation from Boss Liu beside him, Mr. Kong knew that it was impossible for him to invite him.
Because that Lin Chen turned out to be the boss of a company with assets worth tens of billions!
Mr. Kong's family is also very rich. In fact, most of the committee members are very rich. Otherwise, where would they get the capital to play antiques?
But after knowing Lin Chen's true identity, Mr. Kong suspected that the combined assets of everyone in their committee could not compare to Lin Chen alone.
How could this man with a net worth of tens of billions find the time to join their committee?
Asking Lin Chen to join the committee is like asking Mr. Kong to invite those real estate tycoons and mobile company CEOs to join the committee. It is completely impossible.
Therefore, Mr. Kong had no choice but to give up the idea of recruiting Lin Chen to join the committee.
However, while regretting that he had lost a talent like Lin Chen, Mr. Kong was also very curious in his heart, where did this young man Lin Chen come from?
Among the young people in China who did not come from a wealthy family but had a net worth of tens of billions, he had never heard of Lin Chen!
While Mr. Kong was filled with doubts, Lin Chen finally returned to his apartment.
At this time, Zhou Ruoyun returned with a full load and was renovating the two apartments Lin Chen bought.
People from the furniture company were constantly moving furniture from outside the apartment to inside.
With a group of people, plus the waiters called from the hotel to help, Lin Chen and the others worked until dark before finally replacing all the furniture in the two apartments.
However, when Zhou Ruoyun was placing the antiques he bought for Lin Chen, an accident happened.
"Clang!"
With a crisp sound, Zhou Ruoyun smashed the three-color equestrian figurine of the Tang Dynasty to the ground, which made Mr. Kong jealous.
