He had studied in a private school and was well-versed in poetry and prose, so he liked to collect valuable books.
However, all his hard work ultimately came to naught.
Grandpa Dai and Fang Yuan looked at each other in bewilderment.
The atmosphere suddenly became somber.
Over the past decade, it's not just Mr. Guan's hard work that has been destroyed!
"However, you don't need to worry too much."
If you want to fix it, I should be able to help.
Whether you want it restored to its original state or made to look brand new, I know a little about both.
Guan Yuxi skillfully put on a pair of white gloves and gently rubbed the broken part.
After observing for a while, he winked playfully at Grandpa Dai.
Grandpa Dai was surprised, "You can even do restoration?"
Fang Yuan exclaimed in even greater surprise, "Impossible!"
Guan Yuxi pursed her lips and didn't say anything.
However, in Mr. Dai's view, her attitude had already explained everything.
Fang Yuan scoffed, "You think bronze restoration is like playing in the mud when you were a kid?"
Restoring it to its original condition? Can you even lift a hammer?
Not to mention restoring it to its original state!
Girls often think they understand something just because they read some theories in books.
Little did I know that the actual practice was worlds apart from the theory!

"Xiao Guan, come take a look at this for me!"
Guan Yuxi picked it up and looked at it for a moment, then casually tossed it back into the box. "It's engraved with mysterious patterns. The genuine article must be from the Warring States period."
However, yours must have been copied not long ago, and the person who copied it isn't very skilled.
The edges are rough and do not match the pictures and text. The rust spots also look fake and can be wiped off easily.
It's still shiny and clean.
Old Dai excitedly grabbed her hand, "Xiao Guan, could you...?"
"cannot!"
Leng Lie's face was frosty as he slapped his hand away.
He shielded Guan Yuxi behind him, watching Elder Dai warily.
Old Dai was stunned for a moment, then laughed and cried at the same time: "I say, Xiao Lie, you're being too..."
I'm already your grandfather's generation, is it really necessary for you to make such a fuss?
Leng Lie snorted through his nose but didn't say anything.
Guan Yuxi, however, was secretly delighted.
Looks like she's going to make money again!
