Xiaoxiang looked at Lin Han and asked for confirmation.

Lin Han nodded slightly. Although he had no evidence, the world was indeed bad in the past, and not everyone could appraise treasures.

Even people who work in this industry are not allowed to show their identities in public, so those non-genuine people will naturally not negotiate any contracts with you or anything like that. They will just capture you and make you work for them.

Don’t miss out on free workers.

"And those people are unwilling to admit that they were captured and worked for them for nothing. So they claim to be noble people who don't care about fame and fortune, in order to raise their own status."

"Isn't that just like those people who make a lot of money but keep saying they don't like money? There's no need to participate in a competition organized by such a hypocritical person, right?"

After hearing this, Xiaoxiang couldn't help but frown and said with some disgust.

But at this time Yang Lan shook his head:

"It's not hypocrisy, it's just to give myself a good reputation and a platform. And there are really some people who don't covet fame and fortune.

Hundreds of years have passed, and their numbers have not decreased but increased, and they can even be found in all walks of life. Their influence is huge and should not be underestimated!"

Even Yang Lan, the founder of Baojian Tower and the person who can represent Baojian Tower, said so, so this group must be very powerful.

"Anyway, they are just a bunch of old-fashioned people who are not used to the old ways! Nowadays, treasure appraisers can show up, but they insist on sticking to the old ways."

Zhao Hui casually summarized what kind of people those people were.

"So what's in it for me? According to what you said, they are all a bunch of stingy people. I won't get anything if I win the competition they hold, right? There shouldn't be any reward for the champion, right? And do they welcome us?"

After listening to their words, Lin Han understood what kind of people they were.

Simply put, they are a group of people who recluse from the world. They have their own little world and do not get involved in competitions with modern people, so Lin Han did not know of their existence until now.

But it would be difficult to participate in their competition, right? After all, they are all self-righteous people, and they should look down on appraisers like them who compete for fame and fortune.

"There is no real reward, but as I said just now, they have people in all walks of life, and they all have influence, so with their help, it will be easy for you to deal with some powerful guys."

"Deal with? Some powerful guy? Why would I do that?"

After hearing this, Lin Han was very confused and didn't understand why Yang Lan suddenly said such a thing.

He has always been a friendly person. As long as others don't provoke him, he won't provoke others.

So what does Yang Lan mean now when he says he wants to deal with some powerful people?

Is he talking about Cao Yanhuang and Lin Shaoxian?

Cao Yanhuang's words had already been completely thwarted, and he was beaten by him, leaving him with a psychological trauma. Could he not dare to fight him now?

As for Lin Shaoxian’s words, maybe we need to be wary, but there’s no need to take it too seriously. Lin Han doesn’t plan to stay here anymore.

In that case, he would have fewer chances to meet Lin Shaoxian, and it would be difficult for Lin Shaoxian to find a chance to deal with him.

Unless Lin Shaoxian does nothing in his next life and just keeps an eye on him.

Otherwise, Lin Han felt that he shouldn't care too much.

"Because someone wants to deal with you." Yang Lan said as he took out a photo from his pocket.

This made Lin Han even more confused. How did Yang Lan know that someone was going to deal with him? And it sounded like the person was a big shot.

It might even be someone he had never seen, or at least someone he couldn't guess.

"You asked me to check those sponsors before. I checked, and the person who specifically requested to set up that kind of competition was him. You should have met him, right?"

Yang Lan put the photo on the table, pushed it in front of Lin Han and said.

And he was right. Lin Han's expression looked very strange when he saw the person in the photo.

Even Lu Siyu was the same, which he didn't expect.

"Do you know him too?" Yang Lan couldn't help but ask.

This also surprised Lin Han, and he couldn't help but look at Lu Siyu, because the last time he met this person was a long time ago, and Lu Siyu had not met him at that time.

That’s right, this person is Lei Zuo!

He was Qin Yu's enemy. According to Qin Yu himself, they were sworn enemies. As for the reason or hatred, he did not ask.

Because it has nothing to do with him.

But how did she know Lei Zuo? Or had she met him before and worked with him in the company?

"He invited me to participate in this competition." Lu Siyu frowned and pursed her lips, hesitating for a while before saying this.

"What? He invited you?"

"Well, after I gave you Zhong Wanfu's recommendation, he found me and said he wanted to give me the opportunity to participate in the National Treasure Appraisal Competition."

"Have you two known each other before?"

"No, it's the first time we met."

Lin Han was even more shocked when he heard this.

Because he didn't understand why Lei invited Lu Siyu to participate in this competition. After all, it was the first time they met.

He used such great authority to invite a stranger to participate in such an important treasure appraisal competition when they met for the first time.

Lin Han didn't believe it if there was no purpose.

"Didn't he put forward any conditions to you?" Lin Han asked vigilantly.

"No, he didn't put forward any conditions to me. He left after handing me the invitation letter, and he didn't contact me again. I also found it strange, but..."

Lu Siyu hesitated for a while and wanted to say that she was looking forward to competing with Lin Han, but she changed her words in the end.

"But this opportunity is rare, and I have to wait another three years for the next one, so I came here."

"There must be some purpose. I don't think he is an idle person."

Lin Han frowned. He was sure that Lei Zuo had some purpose in doing this, but he couldn't guess what it was.

Because Lei Zuo did not mention any conditions to Lu Siyu and left no clues, it is impossible to make any inferences.

"Since you know him, you should also know that he is not a simple person. He is the sponsor of this competition, and the largest sponsor for three consecutive years. Can you imagine how much money he has?"

Yang Lan could see that Lin Han and Lei Zuo had met before, and knew Lei Zuo better than Lu Siyu.

"It's unimaginable." Lin Han smiled bitterly. He really didn't know how much money Lei Zuo had, but Qin Yu was not simple, so the person who could compete with Qin Yu must not be simple either.

"Anyway, if you want to fight this kind of people, it's best to have a reliable backer. If you become someone recognized by those old antiques, then they won't let you be hurt by Lei Zuo."

Yang Lan made this suggestion just to give Lin Han the capital to resist Lei Zuo.
