Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

Zhu Yawen shook his head.

Although Lin Ran claimed to have learned the end point, his accuracy was not high, only 50%.

"You still need to study more, but you have only studied for two days and you have a success rate of 50.00%, which is already terrible." Zhu Yawen sighed first, but then thought about it, Chen Xing couldn't get this book. In three days, he actually learned to this extent.

Perhaps, he can reach the higher realm that the master said.

Maybe in the future, the secrets in this book can be cracked by Chen Xing.

It seemed like the message was really sent to the right person.

Lin Ran was a little puzzled. He could obviously 'smell color', but the color of some cultural relics was not obvious.

However, he also knew that learning this step was crucial.

The most difficult thing about learning technology is often getting started. Once you have crossed the threshold, the next step is to break through.

As long as you keep practicing, you can improve your skills.

The greatest value of this book may not lie in identification.

After all, as far as Lin Ran knew, most of the identifications needed to rely on the observation of words and colors, and it was impossible to tell the difference purely by relying on his three-legged cat's smell.

But this technique is a huge opportunity when used in treasure hunting. This is a technique that even science fiction novels dare not write about.

Because, before coming to Zhu Yawen's treasure house, he could feel the unusual atmosphere inside from a long distance away.

When I opened it, I realized that it was full of rare treasures, found in every dynasty.

If it is used in the antique street, it is not easy to get it!

He decided to study this skill, but the book could not be opened for the time being, let alone in front of others.

Lin Ran said goodbye to Zhu Yawen.

That afternoon, he planned to go to the Antique City to check out the situation.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned to the hotel, Chen Qi came to see him again.

He said to Lin Ran: "Teacher, we haven't found the pass yet, but we have locked the approximate location where he lives. In five days, we will definitely catch him."

Since you can't catch anyone, find his address.

"It's not valuable information, why did you go all the way?" Lin Ran shook his head helplessly. He had other things to do and was about to go out.

But he saw that Chen Qi still had something to say, as if he was about to stop talking.

Lin Ran quickly asked: "Is there anything else?"

"Teacher, actually I learned one thing after taking over the appraisal shop."

Later, Chen Qi mentioned the underground trade fair.

It turns out that in Hong Kong City, there are many antiques smuggled from the mainland. Due to improper procedures, I am worried that it will cause conflicts.

Therefore, no auction house or institution will accept collections of unknown origin.

Whether you buy it at auction or from an antique store, you will get a special voucher.

Only with this certificate can the collection be traded on the market.

Therefore, many antiques from the mainland can only be kept by individual collectors and are responsible for trading at underground trade fairs.

Tonight happens to be the day when the underground collection trade fair kicks off.

"I hope you will come with me to see it." Chen Qi said sincerely.

I invited Lin Ran out to play last night because I wanted to take the opportunity to build a relationship with him.

After all, the purpose of purchasing the collection this time was to consolidate his position in the appraisal house. He could no longer trust the level of the masters in the appraisal house.

Lin Ran was of course very interested in this kind of trade fair and accepted the invitation on the spot.

With a look of joy on his face, Chen Qi invited Lin Ran into the car, and this time, he was driving the car himself.

"The theme of this underground fair is calligraphy and painting. The masters say that calligraphy and painting are particularly easy to be faked, so I want you to take action personally." Chen Qi said enthusiastically.

It is true that calligraphy and painting are easy to fake, but calligraphy and painting works are usually easy to confirm.

Because ancient calligraphy and paintings are not buried in the soil like most ancient artifacts.

No matter how good the paper is, if it has been in the soil for hundreds of years, it will be corroded and look bad.

Works of calligraphy and painting are often handed down to the world.

Fortunately, in Chinese tradition, literati have always had a high status.

If a businessman is rich, he will also be arty and collect some good calligraphy and paintings.

Calligraphy and painting works can be passed down for thousands of years, often passed down by a large number of collectors.

To distinguish calligraphy and painting, you must not only look at your own painting skills, but also look at the marks and improvements on the calligraphy and painting.

Some collectors' seals are even worth more than the calligraphy and painting itself.

"What are you going to do with the calligraphy and painting after you get it?" Lin Ran asked. Antiques without certificates cannot be circulated on the market, so how can you help the appraisal and sales house negotiate business?

"You don't have to worry about this. Our family has a complete set of cleaning procedures." Chen Qi said without hesitation, "As long as we buy it, we can turn it into a legitimate product."

Only a few major families have this kind of strength, so they are also distinguished guests at the underground collection fair.

Lin Ran nodded. This collection exhibition was a win-win for him.

You can not only test your strength, but also improve your status in the Chen family.

If he comes across extremely rare calligraphy and painting, he decides to buy it with his own money.

In his memory, there are many famous paintings in the hands of collectors in Hong Kong. They are private collections and cannot be recycled by mainland museums.

With this layer of channels, Lin Ran has much more room to play.

It seems that this trip to Hong Kong City is really the right one.

Soon, they arrived at the entrance of Jincheng Academy.

It was very lively here, a large number of people gathered at the door, and it seemed that there was an art exhibition going on inside.

Lin Ran frowned and looked at the entrance and asked, "Is this what they are selling?"

At a glance, he saw that they were all works by contemporary painters, and they didn't feel antique, so he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

Chen Qi smiled slightly, stopped the car, and said, "In order to make it easier for us to transport things out, there will be an ordinary art exhibition outside. All the really valuable things are inside."

Most of the people who came to join in the fun could only see contemporary works and some imitations of paintings from the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, all of which were worthless goods.

Only those with genuine invitations can go inside and see the real thing.

interesting.

Lin Ran was smiling, it was indeed a city of merchants.

He wanted to see if there were any rare goods inside.

If it is an authentic work, he must keep it in his hands.

After parking the car, they walked to the academy together.

As soon as he came in, someone came up to say hello to Chen Qi.

However, Chen Qi obviously had no interest in paying any attention to them. He just waved his hands and was perfunctory.

Lin Ran didn't like this scene either, so he followed Chen Qi deep into the house.

At this time, they saw a sign that said employee rest area, no idlers.

There was an old man sitting on a chair, resting with his eyes closed.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, he opened his eyes and was about to persuade the two of them to retreat.

Chen Qi took out a red invitation. He glanced at it, took the sign aside, and said with a smile: "This way, please."
