The evidence is irrefutable, yet you are still quibbling!
If this isn't about not being able to accept defeat, what is?
"Professor Wu, you are well-informed and knowledgeable. That is your professional advantage."
"But if you learn too many things, it's easy to confuse the herbs."
Lin Fan said meaningfully.
"How could I make such a stupid mistake?"
Wu Liang snorted coldly, very angry.
This guy is questioning and challenging his own profession.
"Professor Wu, don't be so absolute."
"After all, China has a great civilization spanning five thousand years, and the number and variety of medicinal herbs are countless."
"If I choose the wrong medicine, it's not your fault."
Lin Fan spoke calmly.
"Then what makes you say that I was wrong and you are right?"
Wu Liang thought about it and decided not to fall into Lin Fan's language trap.
So, he took the same approach as his opponent to fight back.
After all, it is much easier to question than to prove oneself!
“Because I’m a doctor.”
Lin Fan said with a smile.
"What about the doctor?"
“Doctors never make mistakes?”
Wu Liang felt that his words were not convincing at all.
“As a doctor, I have to remember the medicinal properties of each herb and be able to distinguish them clearly.”
"Otherwise, there will be immeasurable consequences from using the wrong medicine."
"In the most serious cases, it can lead to the patient's death!"
Lin Fan spoke word by word.
“…”
When Wu Liang heard the word "death", his heart skipped a beat.
After all, as a scholar, if he identified the wrong medicine, at most he would be questioned about academic misconduct.
But if the doctor uses the wrong medicine, he may be sued for murder!
After thinking for a moment, Wu Liang said in a deep voice, "Then how do you prove that this black gold is fake?"
“It’s very simple!”
Lin Fan said calmly, "Professor Wu, didn't you just say that you made your identification based on the information in the Compendium of Materia Medica?"
"right!"
Wu Liang nodded heavily.
"Then why don't we just use the method in the Compendium of Materia Medica to determine it?"
Lin Fan smiled slightly.
"You mean..."
Wu Liang was stunned, as if he had thought of something.
"Ultra-black gold generally belongs to the fungus category."
"It is because of the repeated decay and accumulation of fungi that it becomes half black and half gold."
"If you cut it open, the inside will be golden."
"Do you agree with this, Professor Wu?"
Lin Fan asked.
"I agree!"
Wu Liang nodded and said, "However, this black gold is extremely precious. If you cut it rashly..."
This piece of black gold is of perfect quality and is very large, feeling heavy in the hand.
Although the price of 400 million is beyond expectations, it is very likely that it is the only one left in the world today.
Scarcity makes things valuable!
If it is cut open, the price will definitely be greatly reduced.
"It's okay, che!"
Li Jinfeng waved his hand and sneered, "As long as I can prove my innocence, it doesn't matter if this thing is damaged a little."
"Mr. Li, are you sure you want to do this?"
Wang Hanyu asked worriedly from the side.
This cut could be worth four hundred million!
"Yes! We in the Li family have always valued our reputation above all else!"
"As long as I can prove my innocence, what does a little loss matter?"
Li Jinfeng nodded domineeringly.
"Okay, since Mr. Li said so, I'll do it for you."
Wu Liang searched for a while and found a clean Western-style knife from the dessert table.
He carefully cut along the edge of the black gold and slowly cut.
Many people around took out their mobile phones to capture this rare scene.
After all, this thing is worth four hundred million.
It’s much more exciting than gambling on jadeite!
Wu Liang was extremely careful and his movements were very gentle and slow.
It had been several minutes and the cutting was still not completed, and my head was covered in sweat.
He couldn't help but be careful - because this also concerned his reputation.
Finally, he reached the bottom with one sweep of the knife.
Wu Liang carefully turned over the thin layer.
"Wow!"
Everyone suddenly burst into exclamations.
This piece of black gold is actually completely black inside.
"This...what on earth is going on?"
Wu Liang felt like he was struck by lightning, and his brain went blank.
"Professor Wu, this..."
Li Jinfeng was also dumbfounded.
It was like being hit with a sledgehammer!
He never expected that the result would be like this.
"Professor Wu, are you willing to believe it now?"
Lin Fan smiled faintly and said, "Because of the scarcity of this thing, scammers are only willing to do superficial work.
This black gold is completely black inside."
"But, the taste of this black gold is exactly as described."
Wu Liang said in a daze.
"You can fake the taste, too."
Lin Fan smiled, "Besides, this black gold lacks the most representative flavor."
"What does it smell like?"
Wu Liang asked subconsciously.
"Rotten wood!"
Lin Fan reminded.
"Rotten wood?"
Wu Liang suddenly seemed to remember something and his eyes lit up.
Yes, there is a supplementary note in the Compendium of Materia Medica, which says that if the black gold is old enough, it will have the smell of rotten wood.
