"I don't know the reason, but I know that the Zhou family and the Bai family only gave me this imperial seal."
"And after my appraisal, this imperial seal is indeed fake. Just as Lin Han said."
"Originally, I asked the heads of the Zhou and Bai families to exchange a treasure as the last treasure in this auction."
"But the Patriarchs of the Bai and Zhou families told me to put it in the last round of this treasure appraisal auction as the finale item."
"They didn't explain their particular purpose, but I think you should understand what I've said."
"The two family heads want to test the abilities of the two young masters, and at the same time test the abilities of the treasure appraisers."
"I was a little disappointed that no one had discovered the problem with the Imperial Seal until the last moment, but I didn't expect Lin Han to have discovered the problem."
"This is not only a reflection of professional ability. It is also the courage to raise this question in front of everyone."
“I think this is something that many people don’t have, and this is also what the treasure appraiser certificate lacks.”
"In fact, the win or loss of this game has no big impact on me."
"My final task is just to find a better treasure appraiser to participate in the provincial treasure appraisal conference. I originally thought that I didn't have a very good choice, but now it seems that I should have one."
Master Mu looked at everyone and said it with a smile.
He was originally invited to participate in this treasure appraisal auction. With Master Mu's status and ability, he did not care much about what the head of the Zhou family and the head of the Bai family gave.
When Master Mu said this, everyone in the auction hall understood what was going on.
I'm afraid that everything Lin Han said is probably true, and the doubts he raised are also true.
Originally, the heads of the Bai and Zhou families had indeed prepared the imperial seal and purchased it from Lin Haimei.
However, when the time of delivery was approaching, Lin Han disrupted it at the last minute, and the imperial seal was ultimately not delivered to the auction site.
Fearing the wrath of the Zhou and Bai families, Lin Haimei's family handed over the imperial seal that was a replica of their ancestors to the heads of the Zhou and Bai families.
Because when Emperor Taizong of Song handed over the imperial seal to Lin Hansheng's ancestors, it was a time of war.
Lin Hansheng's ancestors discarded the imperial seal for fear of war, so he made another one on his own.
There has never been any mistake or loss of these two imperial seals.
Naturally, it was passed down from ancestors. The real imperial seal was in Lin Hansheng's hands, while the imperial seal that was imitated by ancestors was in Lin Haiyuan's hands.
However, the imperial seal imitated by the ancestors of the Lin family was not of high value, although the material used was the highest grade Hetian jade.
However, the workmanship and details are not as good as the imperial seal made by Emperor Taizong of Song.
In terms of market value, the imperial seal in Lin Hansheng's hand could be worth hundreds of millions, while the one in Lin Haimei's hand is only worth forty or fifty million.
This is the price after auction competition. If there is no auction competition, the value may be even lower.
Lin Haimei's family lost the real imperial seal to Lin Hansheng, and they did not dare to offend Zhou and Bai's families, so they had to hand over this counterfeit imperial seal.
They originally thought that the two jade seals looked almost the same and would not be discovered, but who knew that the treasure appraiser invited by the Zhou and Bai families was an international-level treasure appraiser.
Only through careful identification can one tell whether the jade seal is authentic.
But even so, the Zhou and Bai families did not blame Lin Haimei's family too much. Instead, they regarded this little episode as a test.
At the same time, it will also allow Master Mu to better select better treasure appraisers to represent the mountain city in the provincial treasure appraisal competition.
And the purpose of their doing so has been achieved so far.
Of course, this was also Master Mu's idea to put the imperial seal at the end, which was to test the decision-making ability of Master Zhou and Master Bai.
Therefore, since everyone has their own needs, Master Mu did not announce the result too early, but just waited quietly. After waiting for a long time, he finally got the result.
"So that's how it is. It seems that I was shortsighted and didn't notice the problem in time."
"It seems that Master Lin is better in this aspect. He can actually find the problem so accurately."
Master Bai immediately admitted his mistake.
When it comes to assessing the situation, Master Bai is very good at it.
Lin Han glanced at Master Bai and said with a smile: "Master Bai, have you forgotten something?"
"Did I forget something?"
Master Bai scratched his head and asked.
"It seems that before this, we made a bet. If I lose the bet, you have to give me the jade pendant on your neck."
"And it seems that I won the bet, Master Bai, you should also fulfill your promise and give me the jade pendant."
Lin Han looked at Master Bai with sharp eyes and great interest.
Master Bai avoided looking at Lin Han, his hands and feet were in a panic, and he didn't dare to look into Lin Han's eyes.
Originally, he thought that Lin Han had forgotten about this matter, and he could rely on the powerful influence of the Bai family after the treasure appraisal auction, refuse to admit it, and escape.
But now at the treasure appraisal auction, in full view of everyone, how could he possibly escape?
We can't just lose the Bai family's face and reputation.
What position does this put the Bai family in? As a member of the Bai family, he must never do such a thing.
However, he was unwilling and didn't want to hand over the Bai family's ancestral jade pendant to Lin Han.
Of course, Lin Han didn’t take this matter too seriously at first. Although he had some desire for the jade pendant, he didn’t really need it. If he just let it go, it wouldn’t matter.
But this Master Bai kept jumping in front of Lin Han again and again, making things difficult for him everywhere, and even stabbing Lin Han in the back from time to time.
Since you want to attract my attention so much, I will reluctantly fulfill your wish and accept your provocation.
"Why? Could it be that Master Bai wants to go back on his word in front of everyone?"
"This is something you promised me, and there are witnesses. Master Bai, are you going to go back on your word?"
Lin Han asked back.
"How could it be possible? How could a member of my Bai family do such a thing?"
"I just thought that now is not a good time. Maybe I can wait until the auction is over and hand it over to Master Lin in person."
Master Bai said with a smile, like a well-behaved rabbit, without any aggressiveness.
"No need to wait, I want it now."
"Master Bai, are you willing to give it to me?"
Lin Han asked Master Bai with a threatening tone.
Since you want it, I will play with you. Don’t let the time come when I play with you and you can’t afford to play anymore. That would be ridiculous.
