drove the Zhang family father and son away, and Xu Qiang began to prepare for tomorrow's game.

Although it was only a game between him and Ma Lijin, it was arranged by the Ma family, because just a few days ago, he picked up four pieces in a row in the Ma family's Ma Zhi Chenggong antique shop, and it can be said that each of them is of extraordinary value and has too much impact on the Ma family's antique business.

So although it was just a match between him and Ma Lijin, it was arranged by the Ma family behind it, and Xu Qiang concluded that there must be a lot of tricks in it.

These days, he first goes to the museum to get acquainted with the aura of various antiques.

The relationship between the aura and the age, the relationship between the aura and the material, and some other characteristics of the aura are all well understood.

The next morning!

Xu Qiang came to the scene of the game, the venue was the lobby of a five-star hotel, and the first floor was covered by the Ma family.

The empty hall was temporarily converted into a playing field.

"Are you scared when you come so late?" When Xu Qiang arrived at the scene, there was still about a quarter of an hour before the agreed time for the game, but everyone else had arrived.

As soon as he appeared, Malikin couldn't wait to provoke.

"According to the agreed time, I'm early!" Xu Qiang sneered.

"You and I are both young people, both juniors, all the seniors came early, but you are late, it is disrespectful to the elders!" Ma Lijin gave Xu Qiang a hat.

"I see that you are not good at identification, so you will find all kinds of excuses to slander me, if you are really afraid of losing, just say it, I can cancel this competition!"

"Okay, the game is about to start, you two go and prepare!" When the two of them were facing each other, Ma Botao walked over.

He also couldn't get used to Xu Qiang, because Xu Qiang made him lose face, and even gave him a heart attack, and he almost went to see Hades.

Now is the competition site, there are many people with status and status, if he is difficult for Xu Qiang here, he will be said to be disrespectful to the old and difficult to be a junior.

So although he wanted to embarrass Xu Qiang, he couldn't really embarrass him.

Soon the time for the game came, and Ma Bowen showed that everyone was quiet.

He spoke, described the contest as an exchange between young people, read out the rules of the contest, and finally took out the prizes of the contest.

The Qianlong sword of the Ma family!

The Qianlong Sword will be used as a prize for the winner of this competition.

Seeing the Qianlong Sword, Xu Qiang was a little excited.

The extraordinary aura surrounding the Qianlong Sword proves that it is indeed a sword that sharpens iron like clay, has extraordinary value, and is definitely a divine weapon.

After all, it was used by the Qianlong Emperor, gathering the best blacksmiths in the entire Qing Dynasty at that time, using the most precious materials, forged at any cost.

Even with modern technology, there is no way to restore the Qianlong sword.

"If you like it, try to see as much as you can, because in the end you must be a loser, and the Qianlong Sword must be mine!" Ma Lijin, who was beside Xu Qiang, saw that Xu Qiang liked the Qianlong Sword very much, and couldn't help but whisper sarcasm.

"Don't worry, Qianlong Baojian's surname was Ma in the past, and he will be surnamed Xu in the future!"

When the two were arguing, Ma Bowen had already finished speaking.

Then he ceremoniously introduced the judges to everyone, but Xu Qiang didn't know any of them, three of them were from the Antique Association, three were respected antique seniors in Bingcheng, and the other three were randomly selected.

In total, there were nine judges, and they were invited to the judges' seats.

Soon the competition officially began, and the antiques were brought separately.

"Hello everyone, I'm Feng Fangying, I guess some of you here know me, I am the vice president of the Bingcheng Antiques Association, invited to preside over the competition, I declare that the antiques used in this competition are provided by members of the Antique Association, and before they are officially brought to the field, neither player nor related personnel know!" A man in his 50s stood up.

Hearing Vice President Feng's words, everyone present applauded.

Obviously, there are many people who know him, probably Xu Qiang doesn't know him, because until now, Xu Qiang has a very limited understanding of the Bingcheng antique circle.

And until now, Xu Qiang does not belong to the antique circle of Bingcheng.

"Next, I would like to ask Miss Manners to bring out the first antique ...... for the competition," Vice President Feng continued to preside over the competition.

Immediately, a hostess came up, and Xu Qiang knew at a glance that it was a model, wearing a beautiful cheongsam and walking with catwalks.

There were many young people present, who didn't notice the antiques in the models' hands, and their eyes were focused on their long legs.

Miss Manners put the antique on the table and displayed it, it was a phoenix hairpin.

Beautifully presented and undamaged.

"Now that the antiques have been put on the table, the two contestants each have ten minutes to identify, and then write the answers on your respective answer sheets, remember, the more detailed the answers you write, the higher the score, the more accurate the score!" Vice President Feng asked the two to draw lots.

As a result of the draw, Xu Qiang came first, and Malijin was ordered to turn his back and not continue to look at Feng Hai, otherwise it would not be a fair game.

"It's a complete aura, and the age is not wrong......" Xu Qiang's identification method is different from the identification method of other people in the antique circle.

People in other antique circles, when identifying antiques, start from the characteristics of antiques, first of all, to see whether the antiques conform to the characteristics of the era.

The second is to see if there is any counterfeiting and whether it is damaged.

Xu Qiang is different, he looks at the aura when he appraises.

A complete antique, the aura is one.

According to the characteristics of the aura, the characteristics of the antique can be judged.

If there is a problem with the aura, there must be a problem with the antique.

Xu Qiang quickly concluded that it was a Tang Dynasty court phoenix hairpin.

The conclusion was drawn, and then the process characteristics were analyzed, and Xu Qiang's identification order was exactly the opposite of that of other appraisers.

"It's time!" Vice President Feng announced at a time.

Xu Qiang immediately retreated and began to write on the answer sheet next to him.

Malikin walked over and began to identify the phoenix hairpin on the table.

It's still ten minutes, no more, no less.

There is a time limit for appraisal, but there is no time limit for writing answers, and of course it is impossible to drag it too long, but soon the appraisal was completed, and the answers were accepted by Vice President Feng.

"Now, let's ask our nine judges to start appraising and judging ......"

The order of the nine appraisers was not arranged by age, nor by identity and status, but was decided by drawing lots in public just now.

The appraiser sitting in the first place is also one of the vice presidents of the Antique Association, although Xu Qiang doesn't know him, but he has been introduced just now, Ye Qinglin.

Ye Qinglin picked up the golden hairpin, took the magnifying glass and looked at it carefully.

"The identification of Jin Hai is not difficult, have you ever studied antiques, I'm afraid you haven't even seen which dynasty, right?" When the nine judges appraised it, Ma Lijin stood beside Xu Qiang and smiled proudly.

For today's game, the Ma family carefully studied Xu Qiang's leaks.

After research, they found a big problem, Xu Qiang's process of picking up leaks, he didn't need to know antique knowledge at all, and he could have good eyesight.

Just like the inkstone that is spliced together, the parts used to splice are real, but they come from the same style inkstone that is not the same piece.

If you only identify from the process aspect, you can't see the problem at all. There is also the Qianlong seal, which was later added with a thin gasket to cover up the words on the seal, and the process of discovering the gasket does not require antique knowledge.

There is also a large inkstone with a small inkstone and a golden Buddha with bronze skin.

After careful observation, they determined that Xu Qiang did not know how to identify antiques at all, but had excellent eyesight and was good at finding altered parts of antiques.

After the analysis is clear, they have the confidence to hold a competition.

The antiques used in the competition, whether real or fake, are all one, there are no splices, and none of them are framed.

In this way, no matter how good Xu Qiang's eyesight is, it is useless, because in order to identify it, it is necessary to have extensive knowledge of antiques, and Xu Qiang just lacks these.

Malikin, who knows this well, is full of confidence in today's game.

It was precisely because he knew that he would win that he was in the mood to provoke Xu Qiang in the tense game, and he was not worried about losing the game with Xu Qiang at all.

"It seems that you don't think it's from the Tang Dynasty!" Xu Qiang snorted coldly.

"I didn't expect to be really blinded by you, but even if you are blinded, the details are not what you can be fooled. Malikin was a little surprised, but still confident.

"You're so sure I won't do it?"

"I'm sure, I'm not afraid to tell you, I've analyzed all your leakage picking processes, and found that you just have a good pair of eyes, and you don't understand antiques at all!"

When the two spoke, more than half of the judges had already appraised them.

The judges who had identified them began to look at the answers of the two.

Two answers, one answer made the judges nod their heads, apparently they were very much in agreement.

And when they look at this answer, they look up at Malikin from time to time.

Another answer, they put down after a glance.

When looking at another answer, he would look at Xu Qiang from time to time and frown.

They have this kind of performance, although it has not yet been announced who won, but many people can see it, and the judges have already shown it.

"To disappoint the judges so much, it seems that your answer is very wrong, and your age judgment is right, that is, you judge the truth and falsehood wrongly, you won't think it's genuine, right?" Seeing the judges' performance, Malikin became more and more confident.

More than half of the judges have already approved his answer, and according to the rules of voting, he has now received more than half of the votes and has won.

"Do you think it's fake?" Xu Qiang looked at Ma Lijin with some surprise.

Although Malikin is his opponent, and even repeatedly troubles him, Xu Qiang still recognizes Malikin's attainments in antiques.

One of the leaders of the younger generation in the antique industry in Beijing, this title is not something that can be installed casually, it needs to be recognized by many people, and it is not possible to do it without some real skills.

The characteristics of the golden hairpin are very obvious, and the truth can be seen at a glance.

In Xu Qiang's impression, Malijin should not be mistaken.

"My God, you really see it real, no wonder the judges are not satisfied with you, you're finished!" Hearing Xu Qiang's words when he asked him, Malijin knew that Xu Qiang thought Jin Hai was real.

He smiled, smug, and celebrated his victory in advance.

Hearing Ma Lijin's words, Xu Qiang's brows suddenly furrowed.

How could it be fake?

The aura doesn't lie, judging by the aura on the golden hairpin, it is definitely genuine.

He looked at the referee with a serious expression, to be exact, like a golden hairpin.

"Hey, why has the aura of the golden hairpin changed?" When he activated the ghost eye, he found that the golden hairpin in the referee's hand had changed his aura.

Judging by the current aura, the golden hairpin in the referee's hand is half-true and half-false.
