Rebirth 1990: The beginning is sweet and cool Bai Yueguang

Hearing this, Du Bowen's smile gradually faded. Although Zhou Qi used a hammer to knock open the copper brick and found a lot of precious ancient coins, which was eye-catching, it ultimately failed to change the fact that Shang Baochang lost the bet.

Shang Baochang clenched his fists and said to Zhou Qi: "Mr. Zhou, my vision is limited and I failed to see through your intentions.

However, the result is clear. The loss of the bowl is too great. I did lose the bet. I accept this result!"

Despite saying so, Zhou Qi could still hear the reluctance in the other party.

Zhou Qi chuckled and responded, "Boss Shang, I said before that if the bet is lost because of the bowl, I will take full responsibility. I have always kept this in mind."

Shang Baochang smiled awkwardly and explained, "That's not what I meant."

Zhou Qi did not argue any further and turned to several appraisers and said, "I hope the experts can appraise the bowl again."

As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of several appraisers changed immediately.

What does this mean? Doubting their professionalism? When Shang Zizhe raised doubts before, they could still tolerate it, but now there is another one...

This made them very unhappy.

When Zhou Qi took out the ancient coins from the copper brick, several appraisers looked at him with admiration. They thought he was an extraordinary collector and might be a veteran in the industry.

However, hearing such doubts made them even angrier. They could tolerate doubts from outsiders, but accusations from their peers were the greatest insult to them.

Liu Zhaoqing stood up again to stir up trouble: "What if there is another appraisal? The result will not change.

You discovered the ancient coin, and we all saw it, so we think highly of you. But you are being too self-righteous. Do you think that several authoritative appraisers are not as good as you?"

Of course Zhou Qi noticed the dissatisfaction in the eyes of several appraisers, but he did not explain, nor did he pay attention to Liu Zhaoqing's provocation. Instead, he turned around and picked up the kettle.

"What are you going to do?" Several appraisers instinctively wanted to avoid it.

There was still steam coming out of the Hukou.

No one understood what Zhou Qi was up to. It would be terrible if he poured hot water on someone in a fit of impulse.

Liu Zhaoqing reacted and took a few steps back carefully. Compared with other appraisers, he felt that Zhou Qi seemed to be targeting him more.

However, Zhou Qi simply walked to the table with the kettle, casually pulled up a corner of the red velvet on the table, and poured hot water on it. Steaming white mist immediately spread.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Zhou Qi picked up the small white bowl and gently wiped it with a wet flannel cloth.

All eyes were drawn to the bowl. A miracle happened - the color of the bowl began to change. The white porcelain, which was originally pale green, gradually became as white as milk after being wiped.

Upon seeing this, the faces of several appraisers changed drastically. They, who had just kept their distance, now gathered around.

Normally, the color of porcelain will not change easily unless the production process is not perfect.

"Sir, can you let us take a closer look?" an appraiser asked cautiously.

About twenty minutes later, a cry of exclamation broke the silence: "Oh my God! This is a treasure from the Ding Kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty!"

Everyone knows that the value of this bowl has more than doubled.

Normally, Ding kiln mainly uses milky white, while Ru kiln prefers azure. Since this bowl is white with a hint of azure, it was initially mistaken for a Song Dynasty Ru kiln azure bowl.

Actually, this is not wrong. However, what is really amazing is that when the temperature rises, the color of the bowl changes from green to white. This is the difference between Ding kiln and Ru kiln, and it is also a symbol of the transition period of the two kilns.

It not only demonstrates the evolution of technology during that period, but also carries profound historical and cultural value.

Faced with such a precious cultural relic, some people couldn't wait to ask: "How much is this bowl worth?"

"How much is it worth?" The appraiser's tone was full of awe.

The appraiser glanced at the man and muttered to himself that it was so tacky, but he said, "The value of this bowl lies in the history it carries. It is a priceless treasure."

"But if you have to give a number..."

"The starting price is at least 30 million!"

what? !

Hearing this, everyone was so surprised that they were speechless. Just now, they thought that they would add a few million at most, but they didn't expect it to increase several times in an instant.

And the starting amount is 30 million, which clearly shows there is no upper limit.

The appraiser was in no mood to pay attention to these people's surprise. He was concentrating on admiring the treasure in his hands.

"You are wonderful!"

Du Qianqian was so excited that she almost jumped up and held Zhou Qi's arm tightly. Although Zhou Qi had mentioned it to her before, now that it was confirmed by the expert, everything became real.

What made her even happier was that Zhou Qi did not let her down again.

"Haha, Xiao Zhou, you really impress me!"

"I thought you knew a lot about antiques, but I didn't expect that I underestimated your ability. You are too strong. Not just strong, you are simply admirable!" Du Bowen exclaimed.

Now he understood that Zhou Qi asked for five million right away in order to stabilize the situation and ensure that he could get the treasure.

This is not bragging, but based on his confidence and strength.

"No, no, I'm just lucky." Zhou Qi said calmly.

"Young man, this is not just a matter of luck."

The appraiser continued, “I have been working in this industry for so many years, and I have not seen anyone among the younger generation who can compare to you.

Not only the young people, but even us veterans have made a mistake today. If it weren't for you, this treasure might have been buried. What a huge loss that would be!"

"You really gave us a vivid lesson."

"The ocean of knowledge is boundless, and we should all continue to learn."

These words are undoubtedly a high compliment to Zhou Qi. Who would have thought of using temperature changes to identify cultural relics?

The hammering action was beyond everyone's expectation. Even the experienced veterans saw something unprecedented today.

Throughout the process, Zhou Qi has been facing misunderstanding, doubts, and even ridicule. But this young man still achieved incredible results in such an environment.

Zhou Qi proved himself with his strength, which even those self-righteous people could not do. This time, Zhou Qi taught everyone a good lesson.

Du Bowen couldn't stop smiling, because Zhou Qi was the person he strongly recommended. This performance undoubtedly made him proud and happy.

He said to Shang Baochang, "Old Shang, look at what I said. Now you have to thank Xiao Zhou."

Shang Baochang was still a little confused at this time. Was he winning so easily?

He could hardly believe his eyes. After hearing Du Bowen's words, he realized how wrong his previous prejudice was, and he might even have offended Zhou Qi.
