When Lin Chen walked up, many people couldn't help but pay more attention to him.
Because among the people who went up to see the katana just now, Lin Chen was the youngest.
Those people didn't know that this bidding was Lin Chen's own decision, so they were all wondering why the Chinese people did not let the famous Kong Lao go, but instead let a young boy come on stage. Could it be that this is what happened in a while?
Are you here to take part in the sword appraisal?
Are you kidding? He is so young, can he remember all the names of the 20,000 swordsmiths in the island country?
But at this moment, everyone below suddenly burst into laughter.
Because Lin Chen actually held a samurai sword and did a sword show.
"Hey! This kid from China, this is a samurai sword, not your Chinese sword!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
As soon as the man finished speaking, the laughter below became louder.
Lin Chen glanced at them, smiled slightly, and put the katana back.
Soon after, everyone completed the appreciation and stuffed their respective answers into envelopes and gave them to Hosokawado for evaluation.
The number of people participating in this last Sesshu authentic work reached almost 90% of the attendees, so Hosokawato did not confirm it himself, but asked his maid to confirm for him that he had seen it.
An energetic woman in kimono said loudly: "The results will be announced now."
"Dongdu Bank, yes!"
βThe Kyoto Museum of Art defies the times!β
"Mr. Muto..."
The words "can" and "the times cannot be used" shouted by the middle-aged woman have the meaning here, just like the evaluation of their appraisal results.
"No" is the abbreviation of the island country's proverb "Kuniru Nohhou", which means that the region where the sword maker was judged is the same as the correct answer, but the swordsmanship school is wrong.
"Era violation" means that the region where the sword maker belongs is correct, but the forging era and sword crafting school are both wrong.
The reason why the results are given in this way is because it is very difficult to identify swords. If no one gets an "appropriate" or "equal" evaluation, a second appraisal is required.
Among various evaluations, the best evaluations are undoubtedly "dang" and "tongran".
The so-called "dang" means completely correct, while "tongran" means writing about a person who is very close to the real author, usually the author's father or son, brother or master and disciple.
Because sword identification is very difficult, "Tongran" is usually considered the correct answer.
Once "dang" or "εε" is written, the game will end.
The middle-aged woman announced the answers of more than a dozen people, but there was never a "yes" evaluation, not even a "same" evaluation.
Although many people here are prepared, the difficulty of sword appraisal is so great that even if they are prepared, it is difficult to determine the winner the first time.
However, just when most people were waiting for the answer to the second appraisal, suddenly, a voice was heard from the scene.
"Mr. Park Jung-il, same thing!"
"What?"
"It turns out to be the same thing?"
"It's just the first round and you get the same result?"
Hearing this result, some people at the scene were shocked, while others turned pale, as if they had received a huge blow.
Park Jeong-il received the result of "the same", which means that the winner of the competition has been decided. This island country's national treasure will belong to the Samsang Group represented by Park Jeong-il.
Therefore, although the woman of the Hosokawa family was still announcing other people's answer evaluations, the Sansan people had already begun to celebrate.
"Long live! Miss, we won!"
"The national treasure of the island nation belongs to our country of Great Cold!"
"Professor Park! You are so awesome!"
Some people congratulated Lee Soo-jin, while others complimented Park Jung-il.
However, in the midst of their cheers, the woman from the Hosokawa family suddenly said: "Mr. Lin Chen, be sure!"
"What?"
For a moment, the scene became quiet.
Those who thought Park Zhengyi had won raised their heads and widened their eyes.
Pu Zhengyi looked even more shocked and turned to look at Lin Chen, who was resting with his eyes closed.
"Dang? He actually got it?"
"The above are everyone's assessment results."
After the middle-aged woman announced the final result, she handed the two answers to Hosokawado.
He glanced over and cleared his throat: "Everyone, the winner has been decided."
"In the competition just now, Professor Park Jung-il wrote about the famous Bakumatsu swordsmith Seikei! But the real answer is his disciple Seito!"
"Although in the sword appraisal, writing Qingying is also considered the correct answer, Mr. Lin Chen's writing Qingcai is the real standard answer! It is even more advanced!"
"So in this game, Mr. Lin Chen will do his part and win!"
In this way, under the envious eyes of everyone, Lin Chen successfully obtained the authentic painting of Sesshu.
However, as a national treasure collection of the island country, Lin Chen, as a foreigner, although he successfully obtained this authentic work, there are many restrictions.
Like China, island countries also have many restrictions on national treasures. Although not as strict as China, island countries also have strict restrictions on taking national treasures out of the country.
Therefore, although Lin Chen obtained the authentic Sesshu this time, he could not take it out of the island country and could only keep it in the island country.
Perhaps because of this, after the auction ended, many islanders took the initiative to look for it.
"Lin Chensang, I am the person in charge of Dongdu Bank..."
"Lin Chensang, our Wujing Consortium intends to purchase your authentic Sesshu."
Just when these islanders came uninvited, suddenly, a group of people pushed them aside extremely rudely.
Li Xiuzhen walked up to Lin Chen with a cold face: "Mr. Lin, our Sansang Group wants to buy the authentic Sesshu in your hands, but we can accept it at any price you offer!"
The authentic work of Sesshu was related to a big plan for the Sansang Group. They originally came with the belief that they would win this time, but they didn't expect to be intercepted by Lin Chen.
Although Li Xiuzhen was unhappy with Lin Chen, he could only bite the bullet and come to negotiate with him.
"oh?"
But for Lin Chen, this was a good opportunity to marry Li Xiuzhen, so he smiled and said, "What if my request is for you, Miss Li, to accompany me for one night?"
"You!" Li Xiuzhen glared at Lin Chen fiercely, "Do you know what you are talking about?"
"You asked me to offer the price yourself. If you don't want to, you can refuse." Lin Chen returned.
Of course, Li Xiuzhen could not agree to Lin Chen's conditions. She immediately turned her head and left with the others.
However, when passing by Pu Zhengyi, this shrewd woman suddenly raised her hand and slapped Pu Zhengyi, taking out all the anger she had received from Lin Chen on Pu Zhengyi.
This woman... is really unreasonable.
At this moment, Lin Chen couldn't help but feel a little pity for Pu Zhengyi. When he was useful, he was treated as a treasure, but when he was useless, he was just a dog...
At the same time, he was also a little curious. With the wealth of the Sansang Li family, why would they be so eager for the national treasure of an island country?
