Chapter 595 Coincidence



"It seems like there's no way to make this annoying face disappear anytime soon!"

Lin Han glanced at Du Rongsheng who wrote the same answer as him and sighed.

Du Rongsheng's answer was the same as his, which meant that both of them would advance, because he knew very well that his answer was correct, so he knew the result without waiting for the "right and left hands" to reveal the answer.

After that, two people also had the same answer as them, but in the end there were only four people.

After the real answer was revealed, everyone was shocked.

Hundreds of people were eliminated in one elimination round. They had never seen such a thing before, nor did they expect that the appraisal competition personally organized by the treasure appraiser would be so strict and difficult.

"Why? Why did you eliminate us?"

"Give me a reason, why such an outrageous answer is correct?"

However, some people were not convinced, including those appraisers who were eliminated. It was the first time for them to see a question like this, and this answer was not an answer at all!

At this moment, Mr. Chen raised his hand and signaled everyone to be quiet. After they were quiet, he stood up, looked at everyone, and asked, "What is the question?"

"Find the real thing!" someone blurted out. Indeed, that was the title.

"So which one do you think is true?" Mr. Chen asked again.

"this……"

"Well..."

None of those people could answer because they could see that both were fake, but he wanted the real thing, so neither of them was the correct answer.

Seeing them hesitating, Mr. Chen was not surprised and explained in an orderly manner:

"You have already noticed something. Both are fake. This one is barely correct, but it doesn't fit the question. Choosing one of them as the real one means you don't trust yourself and want to try your luck. But in our treasure appraisal competition, there is no such thing as luck!"

Mr. Chen's words made those people lower their heads. Although it was just a word game, many of them were extremely wrong. They said it was true even though they knew it was false.

"And actually, these two are not complete individuals. They are defective products. The bases need to be repaired. So they can be regarded as four antiques. Their answer is correct."

After Mr. Chen finished speaking, he winked at the two staff members next to the glass cabinet. They immediately opened the glass cabinet, grasped the bottleneck and gently picked up the bottle. The bottle was immediately separated into the base and the bottle body.

This situation is very common. Many antiques are fragile, just like the blue and white porcelain vase in front of you, and are easily broken, so many of them are not complete when they are unearthed.

If used for exhibition, incomplete bottles can be used, although they are not aesthetically pleasing.

But if it is for sale, then it is necessary to make it complete. Everyone knows that a complete or broken thing is more valuable. If you want to sell it at a high price, it must be complete.

So some people fill in the gaps themselves to make those things complete. If the buyers don’t check them thoroughly, they might mistake them for the real thing.

But it is also true, just partially.

There is an essential difference between defective products and imitations. Imitations are completely fake, while defective products are partially authentic.

As for how much this part is, it depends on the conscience of the seller.

The two defective products on display this time were obviously made by cutting the complete genuine product and the fake one and placing them together, so the cut surfaces are so neat and can fit together seamlessly.

However, for the sake of demonstration and to silence other people, the glue was not applied.

That is to say, in this elimination round, the treasure appraiser will destroy two authentic items, and both of them are worth more than 500,000.

It has to be said that the treasure appraisers are really wealthy and powerful. They don't hesitate to destroy the authentic items. If it were a local treasure appraisal competition, they would definitely not do this, as it would obviously be a huge loss.

However, from this point it can be seen that their treasure appraisers really attach great importance to this treasure appraisal competition!

Many of those who answered incorrectly also subconsciously believed that the treasure appraiser would not dare to make such a big move.

"How similar is it to the previous scene? We have all gone through the extremely difficult elimination rounds together and now we are starting the real competition! Maybe this is fate."

Du Rongsheng quietly approached Lin Han, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and spoke in a low voice.

"If it's really fate as you said, then will you be happy to lose to me again?" Looking at Du Rongsheng who seemed somewhat happy, Lin Han was very confused.

"Humph! How rude! After all, we are acquaintances. There is no need to be so hostile when we meet. Besides, are you sure that our fate will not change this time?"

Du Rongsheng raised his head and looked ahead, confident of victory.

"Who gave you the courage? If I remember correctly, you don't have confidence in your own ability, so you need to cheat, right? If you can win the first place with your own ability, there will be no need for this."

Lin Han knew that Du Rongsheng was indeed quite capable in appraising treasures. After all, his family had been in this business for three generations, and he had been influenced by it since he was a child, so it was natural for him to be so good at it.

But the problem is that he doesn't know how to do it, otherwise he wouldn't have to do that kind of trick.

When he heard the word "cheating", Du Rongsheng pursed his lips, a little reluctant, but still admitted it.

He nodded. "Indeed, I cheated, but you didn't, didn't you? I don't know how you got through this, but I know very well that it wasn't your own ability."

A strange light suddenly flashed in Du Rongsheng's eyes. He showed a sly smile and looked at Lin Han curiously.

"Want to compare strength? I'm not worse than you. I can always answer correctly, but I can't always answer correctly like you. But it depends on the situation. I heard that you made a mistake in the bounty contest, right? Was it intentional? Or is that your weakness?"

Lin Han frowned. He knew that Du Rongsheng had connections and could know a lot of things, but he didn't expect that he even knew this matter.

But it’s not a big problem, even if the next competition is as difficult to distinguish between true and false as the bounty contest.

But as long as he is careful, it is difficult to make mistakes.

At this moment, two staff members pushed up two glass cabinets. The things inside were exactly the same as those seen in Zhao Wenqiang's home. They were all wrapped in black mud, with only the edges and corners showing.

"The first round of the points race begins!"

Looking at the familiar things, Lin Han couldn't help but frown and looked at Du Rongsheng beside him.

I have to say, this is such a coincidence. Du Rongsheng just mentioned the bounty contest, and then he brought up these two things seen in the bounty contest.

It was such a coincidence that it seemed like it was arranged on purpose. However, this was the responsibility of the "right and left hands", and the questions were only decided now, so there shouldn't be any tricks.

Maybe it's just a coincidence of the subject matter! After all, it's normal that the types of questions are the same. Isn't every multiple-choice question a multiple-choice question?
