Everyone turned their heads and looked at Lin Yang.

Zhao Qi immediately showed an unhappy look and said, "Lin Yang, I already know your virtues. You can just talk nonsense like treasure appraisal, so don't make trouble."

Lin Yang shrugged his shoulders, looking indifferent.

Xu Suqing didn't expect Lin Yang to speak suddenly, but she soon thought that at the Xu family's banquet, Lin Yang also saw at a glance that the paintings given by Xu Jiahao were fake.

Gu Xiuwen and Zhang Baolin widened their eyes at the same time. Others might think Lin Yang was talking nonsense, but they both knew in their hearts that Lin Yang was not wrong at all.

Zhang Baolin glared at Zhao Qi. His most proud disciple was not as good as a waste that everyone in Jiangcheng knew.

"Zhao Qi, shut up!" Zhang Baolin shouted.

Zhao Qi was dissatisfied and said, "Master, he is just a waste, what qualifications do you have to talk nonsense here?"

"What they are right is that this is indeed the Ru kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty, and it is an official kiln. There is no stick-mao bottle in the folk kiln. You really disappointed me!" Zhang Baolin said coldly.

Zhao Qi immediately showed a look of surprise, but unexpectedly what Lin Yang said was right.

He didn't understand how a waste could see the origin of this vase. He had been studying with Zhang Baolin for so long before he could barely see the origin of this vase.

Zhao Qi turned his head and looked at Gu Xiuwen again, as if he wanted to verify with Gu Xiuwen. What if his master also read it wrong.

Gu Xiuwen said, "Mr. Lin is so eye-catching. He can actually see the origin of my vase at a glance. You are right. This vase is indeed an official kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty. Several treasure appraisers have been wrong before, and only you and Master Zhang recognized it."

Zhao Qi was shocked, and Lin Yang was really right.

He immediately clenched his fists and felt dissatisfied.

It must be that the head of the Gu family colluded with him in advance in order to find some face for Lin Yang. Otherwise, he would be a waste, how could he see the antiques that I couldn't even see.

We must fight back this face.

He turned his head to look at Zhang Baolin and said, "Master, I was careless just now and didn't observe carefully. I will never have such a problem next time."

After saying that, he looked at Lin Yang again and said, "It seems that Lin Yang also knows treasure appraisal. But this vase cannot tell your level. I wonder if you dare to compete with me and see who is better at it?"

When Zhang Baolin heard Zhao Qi's words, he immediately understood what he meant.

He naturally believed in his apprentice more. Lin Yang could have seen it just now, maybe he had happened to see it before.

It would be better to let Zhao Qi compete with Lin Yang to get back his face. Otherwise, if you tell me about it in the future, people will say that Zhang Baolin's apprentice is not even as good as a waste.

"I think it's OK. The dinner hasn't started yet. Why don't you let them compete and make it lively?" Zhang Baolin said with a smile.

Gu Xiuwen looked at Lin Yang and asked, "Mr. Lin?"

Lin Yang nodded and said, "Then let's compare, it's okay anyway."

Gu Xiuwen also laughed and said, "Since that's the case, let's see the two of them competing. The competition between young people must be very interesting."

Zhao Qi was full of wonder. Lin Yang saw the origin of the vase just now, so he shouldn't have colluded with Gu Xiuwen? Why didn't Gu Xiuwen look like he was afraid that Lin Yang would be ugly?

Could it be that ancient Xiuwen doesn’t care whether Lin Yang is embarrassed?

"To be honest, the display cabinets in my room are not all genuine. Some of them are high-quality imitation collections I bought, and almost all of them can be as fake as real."

"Since you want to compare, why not compare who can find out the high imitations in my collection? Whoever finds more will win, and whoever wins?"

Ancient Xiuwen opened his mouth.

"What if the number of us two finds the same?" Zhao Qi asked.

"Then let's get another antique appraisal and let Master Zhang pick the collection and you appraisal." Gu Xiuwen spoke.

Zhao Qi laughed. If this is the case, he will definitely beat Lin Yang.

Lin Yang stood up from his seat and asked, "Since it's a competition, we should set a limited time. I don't want to observe every collection for half a day, so I have to observe dawn."

Zhao Qi heard that Lin Yang was laughing at him for using it for too long to identify antiques at that time, and immediately glanced at Lin Yang fiercely.

"It's 7:15 pm now, and the dinner officially starts at 7:30 pm. It's better to have ten minutes to write down the high-quality imitations you found, and you can see the results for the remaining five minutes. How about it?" Gu Xiuwen spoke.

"Yes." Zhao Qi agreed immediately.

Lin Yang nodded as well.

Everyone in the room stood up, wanting to see who has better eyesight from Lin Yang or Zhao Qi.

Gu Xiuwen found paper and pen for the two of them, and then under everyone's attention, the competition began.

Zhao Qi stared at the antiques on the display cabinet with both eyes. Because it only took ten minutes and there were a lot of collections on the display cabinet, he could not look at each of them for a long time.

It is not easy to find all the high-quality imitations in such a short time, and Zhao Qi felt tremendous pressure.

Even Zhang Baolin, the number one treasure appraiser in Jiangcheng, dared not say that he could find all the high-quality imitations within ten minutes.

In a while, Zhao Qi's forehead was covered with sweat.

On the other hand, Lin Yang looked at the display cabinet quite leisurely, and he didn't even have to pick up the antiques to look at. Usually, one antique just glanced at it and immediately went to see the next antique.

Everyone looked at Lin Yang in surprise. They had never seen treasure appraisal before and only looked at it.

Many people think that Lin Yang is pretending, and he must not know how to appraise treasures at all. Maybe he lost the face of Zhang Baolin's apprentice at that time. Now he wants to please Zhang Baolin and Zhao Qi, and probably agree to the competition, so that he will lose to Zhao Qi, so that the master and apprentice will not hold a grudge against him.

"Young man, it's not like this to appraise treasures. You can see so quickly, but you can't tell whether they are true or not." An old man said.

"Haha, I feel that he shouldn't be able to appraise treasures. Now this should be just pretending."

"You're right. If you can tell the truth or the false at any time you can see it, then his eyes are a bit too powerful."

...

When Zhao Qi heard everyone's discussion, he turned his head to look at Lin Yang. Seeing him watching casually as if he was visiting, he immediately sneered.

"This trash does not know how to appraise treasures. He actually has the courage to compete with me. It's really overestimating his ability." Zhao Qi muttered.

Ten minutes passed quickly. After the time came, Gu Xiuwen asked Lin Yang and Zhao Qi to stop.

"Ten minutes have arrived, give me what you wrote down." Gu Xiuwen spoke.

Lin Yang and Zhao Qi both reached out and handed Gu Xiuwen a piece of paper.

"Lin Yang, just the leisurely look you just now, I'm afraid you can't even see a high-quality imitation?" Zhao Qi said.

Lin Yang smiled at him and said, "You will know when the Gu family leader announces the result."

Zhao Qi snorted coldly, thinking that after the result was announced, it would be clear whether you can still be as leisurely as you are now.

Gu Xiuwen opened the piece of paper written by Zhao Qi, looked at the things marked on it, smiled and nodded, and said, "Zhao Qi, you have good eyesight. You have found five high-quality imitations and found them right. Master Zhang, your apprentice is not simple."

Zhao Qi immediately became proud and said, "The head of the Gu family is wrong."

Zhang Baolin also laughed. It is already a level that some treasure appraisers can't catch up with if they can find five high-quality imitations from so many collections within ten minutes.

He glanced at Zhao Qi with satisfaction, thinking that this kid finally didn't embarrass him.

After hearing this, everyone in the living room praised Zhao Qi.

Zhao Qi smiled and said, "Head of Gu family, please take a look at Lin Yang to find a few items."

Gu Xiuwen nodded and took Lin Yang's paper over.

To be honest, he did not have much hope for Lin Yang. Although Lin Yang is from the Lin family in Kyoto, Zhao Qi is Zhang Baolin's apprentice. As the saying goes, he has a specialty in his profession. No matter how powerful Lin Yang is, he cannot be more professional than others.

"Look, he must have not found a single item. Just as he just observed the antique, it didn't seem like he was appraising treasures." Someone muttered.

Gu Xiuwen opened Lin Yang's paper and looked at the things written on it. After a few seconds, he opened his mouth wide and crawled his entire face in shock.

"Head of Gu family, Lin Yang found a few items. Could it be that he didn't find any of them, which scared you?" Zhao Qi said with a smile.

Everyone in the room laughed.

"Ten...thirteen items, Lin Yang found thirteen items." Gu Xiuwen spoke.

The expressions on the faces of those who were smiling immediately froze.

Everyone looked at Gu Xiuwen, and Zhao Qi asked, "Head of Gu family, what did you say? He found thirteen high-quality imitations?"

Gu Xiuwen nodded and then looked at Lin Yang with admiration.

Zhang Baolin's face immediately became ugly again. He didn't believe it. How could a waste find more than his apprentice?

"Brother Gu, how many high-quality imitations are there in total?" Zhang Baolin asked.

"Thirteen items." Gu Xiuwen answered.

Everyone took a breath, but Lin Yang found all the high-quality imitations here in just ten minutes.

Zhang Baolin looked complicated. Even if he wanted to find all the high-quality imitations here within ten minutes, it would be quite difficult.

"Lin Yang is really a treasure appraisal genius. Just now, he just looked around and found all the high-quality imitations from me. It's really amazing," Gu Xiuwen sighed, thinking that there was no simpler person in the Lin family in Kyoto.

"This is impossible! How could he find all the high-quality imitations here? You must have colluded!" Zhao Qi said excitedly.

Zhang Baolin's face changed, and he reached out and slapped Zhao Qi in the face, cursing: "You bastard! What are you talking nonsense!"

Although Zhang Baolin also found this incident a bit incredible, he knew Gu Xiuwen's character. As the head of the Gu family, Gu Xiuwen did not need to collude with Lin Yang.

Gu Xiuwen's face also became ugly, and he said coldly: "Master Zhang, do you think I will tamper with such a small competition? Do you look down on my Gu family too much, right?"

Zhang Baolin immediately smiled and said, "Brother Gu, please calm down. It's all my disciple's mind. We have no intention of this. Besides, this competition was held temporarily, so how could there be any tricks?"

Zhao Qi calmed down and knew that he had said something he shouldn't have said, and he felt regretful.

"Head of Gu family, I know I was wrong, it was me who was impulsive." Zhao Qi apologized quickly.

Gu Xiuwen looked at Zhao Qi angrily, then apologized to Lin Yang, "Mr. Lin, I'm so embarrassed. Just think this is a misunderstanding. The dinner will start soon, let's go out."

Lin Yang nodded, walked over and grabbed Xu Suqing's hand.

When he went out, Lin Yang looked at Zhang Baolin and Zhao Qi, and smiled and said, "Your apprentice thinks I am not good at winning. If you stand up for him, I can compete with you. What you decide, so that you should not be suspected, right?"
