Wen Ning made a gesture of invitation to Su Yue. Su Yue removed the red cloth and placed a pair of ivory on the tray. Su Yue carefully placed it in front of Wen Ning.

The color of the two pointed ivory tusks was milky white. Wen Ning picked up one of them and locked her eyes tightly on the ivory. She looked at it carefully, touched it slightly with her fingers, put it on the tip of her nose and sniffed it, then picked it up again. The ivory tapped on the table, making a slight sound.

Suddenly, she threw the ivory in her hand to the ground. The ivory shattered and split into two pieces, scattering in all directions.

Su Yue screamed, anger flashing on her beautiful face, "Wen Ning, what are you doing? Do you know how rare it is to find this ivory, and do you treat the item I gave you to appreciate like this?"

Wen Ning waved his hand and spoke in a gentle tone, "Miss Su, don't worry. The ivory I broke into pieces is, to be honest, a fake. I just looked at it carefully. To distinguish the quality of ivory, there are four factors to consider. That’s all.”

Su Yue still had sullenness on her face, "Okay, then just tell me and give me a reason!"

Wen Ning said calmly, "First of all, there should be blood in the ivory. There is indeed blood in the broken ivory, but it was imitated by the merchants. The blood in the ivory is too bright red, and the real ivory is turbid. , it will precipitate over the years, and it will never be as bright as before.”

"Secondly, just touching this ivory feels a little rough and not smooth enough. When you touch a good ivory, it feels like jade, cold and silky."

"Thirdly, if you look closely at the surface of ivory, you will find that there are no lines at all, and real ivory cannot lack lines."

Su Yue's face turned red and blue for a while. After hearing Wen Ning's explanation and seeing that what she said was so reasonable, she knew that the broken milk-white ivory was indeed her being deceived.

Wen Ning saw her expression and bent down to pick up half of the broken ivory from the ground, "Do you know why I broke your ivory just now?"

Su Yue shook her head and said she didn't know.

"Because the last one, whether the texture and density of the ivory is too hard, is also the most important one to judge whether the ivory is real or fake. The higher the density of the ivory, the better the quality. And your ivory fell into two pieces when I gently dropped it on the ground. , one can imagine whether it is true or false.”

Wen Ning smiled lightly, "Why don't you try it again with the other half of the ivory I just picked up from the ground."

Su Yue lowered her head, her face flushed. After all, she had only been angry when she scolded Wen Ning not long ago, but in front of so many people, she did not refuse. She took the ivory from Wen Ning's hand and threw it hard. , the ivory was as crisp as a piece of tofu, and fell to the ground and shattered into pulpy dregs. She understood that what Wen Ning said was not false.

Deep depression flashed across her beautiful eyes, and she said dejectedly, "I wanted to take advantage of my grandfather's birthday to make a bracelet for him using fine ivory, as a way of thanking him for nurturing me over the years. Thank you for your kindness. Now, I am really helpless and have no choice."

Wen Ning stepped forward and hugged her, his eyes raised, "What you brought was a pair of tusks, and I dropped one of them. Why don't you use my method to test the remaining ivory."

Su Yue was stunned for a moment, as if she knew the meaning of Wen Ning's words. She picked up the ivory and followed the method Wen Ning taught her before. The first step was to check for bloodshot threads in the ivory.

"Are they red blood streaks or turbid red blood streaks!" There was a hint of excitement in her eyes. After listening to Wen Ning's methods, the guests at the scene also remembered some of Wen Ning's methods. Coupled with what Su Yue said, they felt that she was also a The filial child would always poke his head in to help her read.

In the second step, she carefully touched the texture of ivory and described it step by step based on her own feelings, "cool, slippery, like a delicate jade piece."

Wen Ning nodded with satisfaction, his lips slightly raised.

When it was her turn to take the third step, her beautiful eyes reflected the milky white ivory, and she said in surprise, "I saw wavy lines, so beautiful."

In the last step, she squeezed her palms nervously, closed her eyes, and threw the milky white ivory to the ground cruelly. The scene was completely silent. She slowly opened her eyes, her feather-like eyelashes were long and trembling, and the milky white ivory was completely silent. destruction!

The guests at the scene laughed, they were all teasing Su Yue in front of them just now.

Su Yue's face was full of excitement, and her tone was sincere, "Thank you Wen Ning! I was so disrespectful to you at the beginning, and I hope you can forgive me and don't argue with me."

Wen Ning shrugged indifferently. She didn't care about other people's words. There were many voices questioning her in this world. She just had to be herself!

After Su Yue left, the winning guests came up one by one to ask Wen Ning for advice. Compared with the troubles of the first few, when the next five came up one after another, Wen Ning easily solved the problems they were facing in a few words. Tough questions.

All the guests present looked at her with eyes filled with deep admiration and awe in their hearts.

"She is worthy of being a woman who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the God of War. She can know astronomy and geography at the top and trivial matters at the bottom. She can strategize and win the battle thousands of miles away!"

"This kind of courage and courage puts all the men here to shame! Who can compare to Wen Ning!"

In the blink of an eye, only the last winning guest was left, and he had not yet completed his conditions.

Wen Ning sat quietly on the stage and waited. A small milk dumpling in the audience carefully tiptoed down from the seat, holding a piece of scraped orchid in her soft and white hands as soft as lotus joints. card.

He was wearing a British suit with black suspenders and a red bow tie. At such a young age, he walked calmly and looked like a young adult.

He walked straight to the stage and sat across from Wen Ning, with his calves dangling back and forth underneath.

No one thought that a child would follow a group of adults and run up to draw lots. Because he was so small, no one noticed him.

Wen Ning saw the little boy in front of him. He was pink and jade, full of milk, dark eyes, and a pair of cherry blossom lips under his small nose. He winked at Wen Ning with his big eyes, "Hello, my name is Chu Yu. , I have two wishes, can you help me fulfill them?"

He poked each other with his two fingers again, and Wen Ning saw all his little moves.

She dragged her chin and said very gently, "But the people in front of me can only fulfill one wish, why should you be an exception?"
