Chapter 131: Is it my own thing? Smash it if you want!
Wei Chengbin glanced at Lin Ran with a slightly surprised look, his eyes full of disbelief!
Isn't it the young man who questioned him in the morning?
At that time, I thought he was just talking about it casually, but now he mentioned it again. Could it be that he really saw something?
But Wei Chengbin still pretended to be calm on the surface.
"Young man, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense!"
"Mr. Qin is the leading treasure appraiser in the country. Where did you come from, how dare you question him?"
"That's right, little brother, what you said was too abrupt. There are so many of us, are we all wrong?"
With the help of onlookers, Cai Yan became even more aggressive.
"What do you want to do?" Cai Yan stared at Lin Ran angrily.
Lin Ran ignored everyone's doubts and walked straight to the stall.
He finally discovered the flaw in the three-color figurines in front of him.
But he didn't point it out directly, but asked: "Boss, where did your three-color camel figurines come from?"
Wei Chengbin said without hesitation: "It's all passed down from our ancestors."
"Is it an object passed down from our ancestors, or a skill passed down from our ancestors?" Lin Ran said with a smile, he discovered the text trap in the other party's language.
Wei Chengbin was silent for a moment, but before he could answer, Cai Yan walked up to Lin Ran.
He poked his chest with his finger and said, "Boy, have you made enough trouble? You've been buzzing around like a fly since just now. It's delayed our work. Can you afford to pay for it?"
Yang Jianlong emerged from the crowd and stood in front of Lin Ran: "What are you doing? Don't think that people from museums are great, you."
"Cai Yan! Don't be rude!"
Another old professor who followed Cai Yan spoke.
"Old Zhao."
Cai Yan was a little annoyed, but he could only keep the words in his heart.
Wei Chengbin looked at Lin Ran quietly from the side, a little surprised.
He was indeed playing word games on purpose. He never admitted that it was Tang Sancai, nor did he admit that it was a treasure passed down from his family.
It's just a handicraft imitated based on ancestral memories.
Everyone else was fooled, only Lin Ran saw through it.
It would have been fine before, but now there are three leaders in the antiques circle.
He also sold four imitation cultural relics to the Palace Museum, which made him feel nervous.
"Boss, tell the truth, did you dig these things out of some grave?" Cai Yan said, "You might as well tell me and make this kid give up."
Cai Yan didn't think it was passed down from his ancestors.
Three-color figurines have always been funerary objects in ancient times.
In Chinese culture, burial is never a good thing.
How could the funerary objects be passed down all the time? It’s even more outrageous than the coffin!
Wei Chengbin was observing Lin Ran. He looked confident. Could it be that he really saw something wrong?
At this time, Cai Yan patted Wei Chengbin on the shoulder and said, "Wei Chengbin, what do I want to ask you?"
It's a pity that before the words were spoken, the situation at the scene suddenly changed!
There was a loud "pop" sound, which startled everyone.
Cai Yan is no exception.
After a closer look, Wei Chengbin actually lifted the pottery camel, dropped it hard, and smashed it.
Not only Cai Yan, but even Mr. Qin showed a hint of surprise.
But there was more regret in Mr. Qin's eyes.
The historical treasure of Chinese civilization was smashed to pieces like this?
It's just a waste of money!
"What are you doing!" Cai Yan couldn't control his emotions. He stepped forward and grabbed Wei Chengbin's collar, shaking him back and forth, which was extremely rude.
Wei Chengbin pushed him away easily.
There was still an extremely calm expression on his face.
"I can handle my own things however I like. Do you care about it?"
Wei Chengbin said so many words in one breath, which shows that his mood has fluctuated.
"You! You are destroying national cultural relics! I want to sue you!" Cai Yan pointed at Wei Chengbin, trembling with anger.
"Go away." Wei Chengbin slapped his hand away, put the large pieces of debris on the ground into red cloth and wrapped them up, ready to take them away.
Mr. Zhao was a little angry and said to Cai Yan, "You are too rude!"
People around him also started to criticize.
"Researcher Cai, how can you just sway someone else?"
"If you fail to negotiate business, you'll make others anxious."
"Still too young!"
Cai Yan became angry because of embarrassment. He was very dissatisfied. It was Lin Ran who was clearly questioning the stall owner. Was it wrong for him to speak for the stall owner?
In the eyes of everyone in Panjiayuan, Lin Ran was just raising questions, which was reasonable and reasonable during the transaction.
Instead, Cai Yan stepped forward and shook Wei Chengbin's body while chattering non-stop, which was extremely rude.
When Mr. Qin saw the three-color figurines shattered on the ground, he stopped collecting money.
Although he did not accuse Cai Yan, the regret in his eyes was clear.
Wei Chengbin was picking up the pieces.
Mr. Qin suddenly stepped forward.
Wei Chengbin bowed unexpectedly, and Wei Chengbin's calm face turned pale with fright.
"What are you...?" Wei Chengbin asked in confusion, and quickly made a gesture of invitation.
Mr. Qin lowered his head and said, "Mr. Wei, I'm really sorry that you suffered losses because of the rudeness of our museum staff."
Mr. Qin bent down to apologize, which moved everyone around him.
This is the attitude of a national treasure appraiser. In contrast, Cai Yan is arrogant and arrogant, and he makes judgments!
"That's all." Wei Chengbin calmly packed up his things and said to Mr. Qin: "There are indeed some people in your museum who look down upon others. Take your leave."
When Wei Chengbin said the last sentence, he obviously looked at Cai Yan.
This made Cai Yan sulky: "Who are you talking about?"
No one paid him any attention. Wei Chengbin wrapped all the fragments of the three-color figurines and put them into the box he carried with him.
Dragging the box and getting ready to leave.
Wei Chengbin looked calm on the surface, but actually he was secretly glad in his heart.
Cai Yan's rude behavior towards him just gave him an opportunity to use the topic to his advantage.
Not only can he destroy the evidence, but he can also leave as a victim!
If Lin Ran continued to ask questions, he would definitely reveal his secret.
Now he is pretending to be angry and smashing the priceless three-color figurines, which is in line with his character.
He left angrily and came back to set up his stall after the incident subsided.
Everything is calculated!
Facing Mr. Qin's appraisal today, he was still a little nervous.
But he is now extremely confident in his skill level. Mr. Qin believes that what he makes is "genuine". I am afraid that not many people in the whole country can recognize it as a handicraft.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel proud.
Lin Ran's figure suddenly flashed in his mind.
Both times, Lin Ran stood up to question his work, and his tone seemed to be full of confidence. Could it be that he really saw some flaws?
But it doesn't matter, that kid is not a celebrity after all, no one will believe what he says.
In front of the stall, even though Wei Chengbin had left, the crowd had not dispersed.
Several scholars expressed their grief. Cai Yan lowered his head, as if he had done something hugely wrong. He did not dare to speak and had no choice but to listen to the criticism.
Cai Yan was full of dissatisfaction, why was he the only one being scolded?
But when he tried to find Wei Chengbin in the crowd, he found that he had disappeared!
