Chapter Twenty-Three: Mystery
Zhao Ke was so angry that his teeth itched, but he was helpless.
Although he really wanted to find fault with the sacrificial copper coins in public, Li Deshun opened his mouth, and he didn't want to say anything more - he couldn't get along with Li Deshun for the sake of a little Chu Fengping, no matter how you look at it, it was a loss-making transaction.
The results of the first round of the competition came out quickly, and Chu Fengping undoubtedly won the first place.
"I announce that the top five in the first round of the Treasure Appreciation Conference are: Wang, He, Wu, Zhang, and Li. Delegates are invited to take a break and start the second round of competition in half an hour, that is, to find the only genuine product from the three identical objects. β
After Li Deshun finished speaking, he went to the backstage to rest.
The hall was noisy, with the representatives of the families who had won the rankings talking and laughing, while those who had not been able to gain the upper hand in the first round shook their heads and sighed.
Chu Fengping silently walked in the direction of Wang Yunshi and the others, with mixed feelings.
In fact, from the moment he stepped into the hall, he sensed some kind of looming mysterious aura, sometimes intense, sometimes faint, and unpredictable.
"Little handsome guy, I can't see it, my young ability is not small. Liu Jing smiled and took the lead in speaking, "Like our rhymes, they are all young and promising masters." β
"Young and promising?" Wang Wenwen still maintained a sharp-tongued style, "I still reluctantly agree with the first two words, forget it." "Poor and white, where can she compare with her sister? The only advantage is that at most I have read a few more antique books, but so what? Winning the first round does not mean anything, maybe it is luck.
"You're doing a great job. β
Wang Yunshi showed a rare smile, looked at Chu Fengping, and gave a flat tone of appreciation.
"Hmm......" Chu Fengping nodded perfunctorily, a little absent-minded.
All he could think about was that mystery.
If memory serves, he was surrounded by the same aura when he first slammed his head against the door of the antique shop to gain the eye of the connoisseur.
If you find a way to find the source of the breath quickly, you may be able to find some clues.
"What, if you make some achievements, your sister is not big or small?" Wang Wenwen pouted, very dissatisfied with Chu Fengping, who was outside the world.
Wang Yunshi herself has no opinion.
She could see that Chu Fengping had something on her mind.
In that case, there is no need to force him to reply in a serious dialogue.
The break passed quickly, Li Deshun returned to the stage, cleared his throat, and announced the start of the second round of the competition into the microphone: "Only the top five participants in the first round are eligible to enter the second round of the competition." Next, please ask the fifth place, Li Shi to come to the stage to identify. β
It is not a simple task to prepare three bottles and cans with similar appearances, and it costs a lot of money just to find relevant professionals to "copy" them in advance, so in order to save costs, only the top five are allowed to participate in the second round.
The order of identification is from lowest to highest.
"Don't be nervous, this round is over, I'll take you back to the hotel to have a good rest. Wang Yunshi saw that Chu Fengping always looked worried, hesitated for a moment, and comforted.
"Well, it's fine. β
Chu Fengping shook his headβwhat is there to be nervous about? His Divine Eye can be used three times, and in addition to the sacrificial copper coin just now, there are still two chances.
Even if you don't need to use the professional knowledge in your head as an aid, choosing one of the three is completely enough.
While the other four contestants were picking their heads and carefully distinguishing them, Chu Fengping quietly got up from his seat and walked towards the pile of antiques that were picked up in the first round.
The closer you go, the more mysterious it becomes.
Chu Fengping's heart beat violently.
His instincts told him that there must be some ulterior secret hidden in this.
However, this mysterious power seemed to be deliberately playing hide and seek with him, appearing and disappearing, even if Chu Fengping closed his eyes and felt it carefully, he couldn't catch its specific location, and could only vaguely detect that the source of the breath was something in this pile of eliminated antiques.
"Next, please put the first place, Mr. Chu Fengping on the field. β
Just as Chu Fengping frowned, Li Deshun's kind voice rang out. After sacrificing the copper coin, Li Deshun was impressed with Chu Fengping, and his attitude was more than a star and a half better than at the beginning, and even there was a faint respect and admiration in his words.
"Okay, here we go. β
Chu Feng calmed his mind, sighed slightly, and turned around and walked to the front of the stage.
Forget it, let's wait until the second round is over.
The rules and processes of the Treasure Appreciation Conference were complicated and lengthy, and Chu Fengping couldn't remember the specifics, but he knew that unless they were direct blood relatives within the family, others could only represent the family in two links at most. In other words, after "choosing one of the three", his mission is completely completed.
It's not too late to slowly explore this breath when the time comes.
On the stage, Li Deshun stood with his hands in his hands, and a carved wooden frame was erected beside him, on which were placed three porcelain vases that looked as if they had been carved out of a mold.
Chu Fengping's steps were steady, and as he walked, he quietly opened his Divine Eye of Appreciation.
"On the left, the imitation technology is extremely high. β
"Second ...... from left"
Pretending to be serious for a moment, Chu Fengping casually pointed to the porcelain vase on the far right: "Mr. Li, this is true, right?"
"Are you sure?" Li Deshun stared at Chu Fengping incredulously, the brilliance in his eyes becoming more and more obvious.
It only took two or three minutes before and after to give the correct answer, not to mention a recent college graduate, even if it is a person who has been in the industry for two or three years, he may not be able to do it.
"Sure. β
Chu Fengping replied lightly, and his mind was not on winning at all.
Anyway, finishing first is a certainty.
Maybe it's the reason why the number of times the eye has been used has reached the limit, and there is an indescribable warmth surging in his eyes, which is a little uncomfortable, but more of it is the comfort of breaking through the limit and surpassing himself.
Chu Fengping's intuition reminded him that the Divine Eye of Appreciation might be about to upgrade.
"The future is terrible, the future is terrible......" Li Deshun touched his gray beard meaningfully, and sighed with emotion, "If there can be someone like you in the treasure world, I will die one day, and I have no regrets." β
It is ridiculous to say that today's social atmosphere is impetuous, most of the people engaged in the treasure industry have the idea of being promoted to become rich, and very few people will sink their hearts to study the connotation and value of the treasure itself. Li Deshun was so worried that he couldn't sleep all night, but now it seems that he can finally let go of his worries.
In the first two rounds, Wang took the first place, causing an uproar.
After all, although Wang's strength is strong, the treasure appraisal conference is not a commercial competition, and the luck component accounts for a huge proportion, and he won two rounds of first place in a row...... It's more or less suspicious.
You won't buy off the staff, will you?
