Chapter 147 Main World 6 The Approaching Truth.
That day, Qin Wang picked up Jian Ziyan, carefully placed him on the sofa, and then cleaned up the mess on the floor.
Then he changed back into his own clothes, half-knelt in front of the sofa, and looked into Jian Ziyan's eyes for a long time.
He didn't say anything else, but just touched the corner of Jian Ziyan's eyes cherishingly and timidly, and his back disappeared in the pouring rain.
Jian Ziyan sat alone on the sofa until the heavy rain stopped for a while and the dawn light fell on his face. Then he moved and went to take a bath with a pale face.
In the mist of hot water, Jian Ziyan felt his numb brain gradually becoming clear.
He did not respond to what Qin Wang said, but he listened to it.
Through the contact between the two worlds, he knew that although Qin Wang seemed rational, he actually had an extremely stubborn side to his character. Even if he said that he would never see him again in this life, he would hide where he could not see him and continue to do what he wanted to do.
Besides, he really isn't that cruel.
In response to Qin Wang's promise, he adjusted his mood and took it calmly.
He has heard it and he won't have any hope for it, nor will he reject it like before. As for how far they can go in the end...it all depends on fate.
Jian Ziyan returned to his own life.
He spent about a week to arrange a happy ending for the book he wrote before he traveled through time. Although the beginning, middle and end parts all tortured the readers, the ending of the book was an unprecedented happy ending, which shocked the readers so much that they left comments overnight asking if he had been traveled through time.
After finishing the work on the novel, Jian Ziyan started working on a new career.
According to the actual time, he actually just graduated from college this year. He started writing novels in college to supplement his living expenses. When he graduated, he still had some books to finish, so he spent a few more months on it.
He originally planned to wait and see whether to continue writing or go to work after finishing this book, but now he has made a decision.
A week later, a rumor spread in Rongcheng's largest antique market.
It was said that a young man appeared out of nowhere, and after just a few rounds in the market, he identified several precious artifacts. When everyone did not believe it, the president of the largest auction house in Rongcheng who happened to be shopping in the market saw it. He was very interested in the young man's confident attitude, and actually bid to buy those antiques, and then took the young man and the treasures back to the auction house for appraisal.
You have to know that the antique appraisal business is not small, but it is not that big either. The people who control the market in Rongcheng include a few old appraisers who have been in this business for many years and have become experienced, as well as the president of this auction house who has some strength and skills.
This young man suddenly appeared, and at first glance he looked to be in his early twenties. He looked so clean, handsome, delicate and beautiful. It was pleasing to the eye, but it was a bit difficult to make people really believe that he had some ability.
However, one characteristic of niche circles is that once there is any news, it spreads very quickly to each other.
So when the news spread that those treasures were truly priceless antiques, the entire Rongcheng antique circle was shaken.
Antique appraisal depends not only on vision and ability, but also on luck. Some people may not come across a genuine item for several years, while some items are so difficult to distinguish between the real and fake that even the most experienced appraisers would hesitate and be unable to make a conclusion.
But many people saw the young man's selection process that day. He just walked around the market and then picked up those items very confidently. It was this confidence that attracted the attention of the auction house director.
After this incident, the auction house president's eyes changed when he looked at the young man. He immediately invited the young man to be a full-time appraiser in their auction house and offered him a sky-high salary.
After all, just these few things are enough for him to make profits for several months, so he has to quickly pull people in and treat them as treasures.
The young man, Jian Ziyan, was not surprised by this.
To be able to reach this point is naturally his careful design. ◢
Although he knows a lot, after careful consideration, he finds that many of his abilities cannot be fully utilized due to the limitation of money, so the most important thing at the moment is to make money.
So how do you make money?
He thought for a long time and turned his attention to antique appraisal.
He has traveled through so many worlds, and his horizons range from the interstellar to the ancient times, from Western fantasy to medieval Europe, and then to immortal heroes and cyber. No matter what his original background was, he eventually climbed to a very noble and honorable position. The so-called antique jewellery was just a piece of plaything for him at that time.
If these worlds are imaginary and have a gap with reality, then the history major he studied in college just filled this gap.
In order to ensure that he would get the scholarship, Jian Ziyan pushed himself to become a top student who won the national first-class scholarship for four consecutive years.
The knowledge from several worlds was automatically summarized and integrated in his brain, forming his unique knowledge system.
With the foundation and supplements in place, Jian Ziyan began to take action.
He observed that the president of the auction house would go to the antique market every Wednesday, because Wednesday was the market's new product day. As for whether one could find treasures here, it depended on luck.
Jian Ziyan seized this opportunity, successfully showed himself in front of the bank president, and successfully became an appraiser of the auction house.
Although he has not had time to obtain the professional level certificate, the auction house president is obviously a veteran who has been immersed in the business world for many years. Compared with the so-called qualifications, he values strength more.
Jian Ziyan successfully took the first step.
Even though many people in the industry had some complaints about his age and qualifications, gradually, these voices all disappeared.
In the first month after entering the industry, Jian Ziyan followed the bank president to successfully identify more than a dozen treasures in the market. Not to mention this year's profit, he almost maximized next year's profit.
Professional appraisers need to use chromatographs to assist in identification, but he can recognize most of them with the naked eye, and nothing he brings back to the industry has failed. This almost god-like identification ability has quickly spread Jian Ziyan's reputation throughout the Rongcheng circle.
After receiving his salary, Jian Ziyan used the hacking skills he learned from Ling to create an account for himself on the Internet, and created a virtual persona of "an antique lover with a lot of money".
He purchased large quantities of antiques that were difficult to distinguish between genuine and fake on the Internet, then authenticated them himself and sold them to various museums, collectors or auction houses through his account, accumulating a huge fortune in a short period of time.
Four months after what happened that night, Jian Ziyan had collected 15 million.
He directly transferred the money into the fundraising account of a public welfare project under Qin's name.
Perhaps it was because of this money that Jian Ziyan met Qin Wang again after four months of separation.
At that time, he had just come out of the renovated orphanage. Under the sycamore tree where the two first met in this world, Jian Ziyan saw Qin Wang standing under the tree with two cups of milk tea in his hands.
At this time, winter was almost over, there was still unmelted snow on the ground, and the sycamore trees were still bare. However, Qin Wang stood there, making the whole corner look bright. There were not many people passing by, but those who passed by would take a few glances there.
Jian Ziyan stopped and looked at Qin Wang with a hint of uneasiness in his eyes, then he walked towards him with a gentle smile.
"Xiao Yan."
Jian Ziyan glanced at him from the side because of this address and nodded calmly: "Long time no see."
Qin Wang seemed to have received some kind of signal of pardon. The smile on his face suddenly became brighter and more sincere. At the same time, he handed a cup of milk tea to Jian Ziyan.
Jian Ziyan did not refuse. He took it and said casually: "I can't tell
, you also like sweet food so much."
"I really didn't like it before, but now I like it very much." Qin Wang gazed at Jian Ziyan gently, as if he saw the sharp-wristed Marshal Jian drinking honey water with satisfaction.
Although his eyes had never left Jian Ziyan, only by actually seeing him could he feel the warmth that was gradually replenishing his heart that was constantly permeating with coldness.
"It's been a winter since we last met." Qin Wang said softly, "This winter is particularly cold, are you okay?"
Jian Ziyan knew that he was asking a question even though he knew the answer, but he still answered with a "hmm".
The two walked forward side by side. Jian Ziyan kept drinking milk tea, while Qin Wang just held it in his hands, feeling the temperature getting cooler little by little.
After Jian Ziyan finished drinking, Qin Wang took his cup, walked forward a few steps and threw it into the trash can.
"It's getting late today. Do you want to have dinner together?" Qin Wang asked with courage. "I'm here in Rongcheng on a business trip this time. I'll be back tomorrow. I won't disturb you for too long."
Jian Ziyan glanced at him, and just when Qin Wang suddenly became nervous, he replied: "Okay, I know a porridge shop that's delicious. Do you like porridge?"
Qin Wang was stunned for a moment, blinked as if he didn't react, and then nodded decisively.
"Of course I like it. I like porridge the most."
…
Jian Ziyan could see that this meeting was an invitation and test from Qin Wang.
Qin Wang understood him better than he thought. He knew that with 15 million standing between them, Jian Ziyan would not be content to accept his other overtures, so he waited patiently. As soon as the signal was passed on, he rushed over like a black bear smelling honey.
Jian Ziyan admitted that Qin Wang made the right move.
After this meeting, Qin Wang returned to Yancheng, but his heart remained in Rongcheng.
In other words, his heart has never left Rongcheng.
From that day on, Jian Ziyan received messages from Qin Wang from time to time. Sometimes these messages expressed just the right amount of concern, sometimes they were simple greetings, and occasionally there was even a line of poetry.
Jian Ziyan didn't care about anything else, but he happened to read the poem Qin Wang sent him carefully, and his eyes were fixed on it.
This was not done by any poet in the real world; it was obviously written by Qin Wang himself.
And this style... is more than familiar.
Jian Ziyan silently flipped through the messages and read all of Qin Wangfa's poems carefully. His eyes returned from being overwhelmed with anxiety to being calm.
He seemed to have not changed at all, and just started replying to Qin Wang's messages.
Jian Ziyan is very busy. He not only appraises antiques, but also starts appraising jewelry and ancient books when the time is right. Just like when he appraises antiques, he never fails whenever he makes a move.
He emerged in this industry with an unstoppable force and attracted everyone's attention. He was very cautious and could not make any wrong steps. At the same time, he used the fake persona on the Internet to run his own business.
At the same time, he clearly felt a push coming from behind.
In this world, just having strength is far from enough. Jian Ziyan is a tree that stands out in the forest, and any wind will destroy it. Ever since he became famous, there have been endless frame-ups in every corner. Someone has framed him, someone has secretly replaced the treasures he has identified, and someone even tampered with his food in an attempt to blind his eyes.
The little actions of these people were exposed under the monitoring system. Jian Ziyan originally planned to take some time to deal with them personally. However, before he could do anything, all these people disappeared.
Those who deserve to be unemployed will be unemployed, and those who deserve to be imprisoned will be imprisoned. There is solid evidence and each person will be severely punished.
After these people disappeared, his surroundings suddenly became clean.
Of course Jian Ziyan knew who did this.
His fame grew, and Rongcheng was gradually no longer qualified to be his stage. He began to be invited to appraise treasures all over the world, and the scope of his business trips became wider and wider, including the capital Yancheng.
The National Television Station No. 1 is preparing a live broadcast program on treasure appraisal and ancient book appraisal, which will also convey classical culture to the audience. Jian Ziyan is among the invited guests.
I heard that it is extremely difficult to get a spot on this show, and those who are able to go on stage are all industry masters with many years of experience in the industry. Moreover, the selection is made by the state, and no one is allowed to take the back door.
However, being able to appear on this program is undoubtedly equivalent to gaining recognition from the country, so countless appraisers are scrambling to find connections just to get a recommendation spot.
Although Jian Ziyan was extremely famous and had the reputation of being a "god-level" person who never failed, he knew that he was still inexperienced, so he never thought about getting involved in this matter.
However, he received an invitation to the show.
419: "Host, are you going?"
"Go. The opportunity is right in front of me, how can I not go?" Jian Ziyan said, "It's easy to guess who did it. There's no point in being reserved at this point."
Although Qin Wang would know without being informed, Jian Ziyan still sent Qin Wang a message before leaving.
This was an exciting signal. Qin Wang once again rushed to the airport to pick up the plane like a black bear that had smelled honey, shocking his assistant Xia Han.
Xia Han was assigned to book a hotel.
He strictly abided by Mr. Qin's requirements: not luxurious but comfortable, or eye-catching but delicious...
After careful selection, he finally chose a hotel. Due to some delay, he had just finished handing over the room when Mr. Qin came in with his people.
When Xia Han handed the room card to President Qin, she couldn't hide her curiosity and glanced at the person next to her out of the corner of her eye. After all, this was the person who was picked up by President Qin in person.
After seeing this, he couldn't look away.
The young man was wearing simple casual clothes, but it couldn't hide his elegant and transparent temperament. He was facing Xia Han sideways, and the lines on his side were as bright and undulating as spring mountains. His face was exquisite to the point of being almost charming.
Noticing Xia Han's gaze, the young man turned his eyes to look at him and nodded politely.
Upon seeing this, Xia Han couldn't help but exclaimed, "Ah!"
This, this, this... this is actually Master Jian who just started to gain fame last year! ?
Xia Han's grandfather is a loyal antique enthusiast, and now he admires Master Jian very much, so it is impossible for Xia Han not to recognize him.
His voice attracted Qin Wang's attention. Seeing the unfriendly gaze of his boss staring at him, Xia Han took a breath and immediately lowered his head, not daring to look again.
He was shocked. How did these two people who had nothing in common get together? They even seemed to be closely related. Could it be that our company was also going to get involved in the antique business?
No wonder Xia Han was surprised.
Even though Jian Ziyan's expression was cold, President Qin's eyes were glued to Jian Ziyan. Anyone with eyes could see that he was clearly putting Jian Ziyan first, being careful and attentive to everything, as if he was holding his own eyes.
Jian Ziyan's expression just turned a little pale. There was no aura of rejection towards Qin Wang around him. He even complemented the overly enthusiastic Qin Wang and seemed very harmonious with him.
Xia Han was almost choked by his curiosity, but he knew very well that one should not pry into the boss's secrets, so he didn't even dare to ask. He handed the room card to them and left quickly.
Qin Wang was very satisfied with Xia Han's ability to understand the current situation. He brought Jian Ziyan into the room.
Even though he said it didn't have to be too luxurious, the room used to entertain VIPs certainly couldn't be too bad. This was a suite with two bedrooms, a master bedroom and a second bedroom. Although it was not as impressive as the top presidential suite, it was impressive enough.
After entering the room, Qin Wang was busy packing things for Jian Ziyan. Jian Ziyan flipped through his phone and said suddenly, "This place is so far from the TV station."
"That's okay." Qin Wang said without even turning his head. "The live broadcast won't start until tomorrow night. You should have a good rest tonight. I'll pick you up for lunch tomorrow at noon. There's plenty of time."
"Oh." Jian Ziyan responded slowly. He looked at Qin Wang's busy back and said, "Didn't they say that this program cannot be entered through the backdoor? How did you get me in?"
Qin Wang paused for a moment, then stood up and faced him with a serious look.
"Yanyan, I didn't give you a backdoor. I just recommended your name. I'm just a businessman. How can I influence the country's judgment?" He said, "You were selected because you have the ability. It has nothing to do with anything else. I just want to give you a fair chance to compete."
Hearing that his address had changed again, Jian Ziyan looked at him steadily for a few seconds.
Qin Wang smiled at him, then turned around and continued to pack his things.
There are many things that are clear enough without having to be stated explicitly. Jian Ziyan stared at Qin Wang's figure and slowly withdrew his gaze.
It should have been a peaceful night, but the sudden news of 419 broke the peace.
"Host, I received a summons from headquarters." 419 said, "They said the headquarters has been repaired and I can go back anytime."
Jian Ziyan had already closed his eyes, but upon hearing that, he opened his eyelashes again, with an indescribable look in his eyes.
He paused for a moment before asking, "When do you plan to go back?"
"I plan to... stay for a few more days, at least until you finish participating in this program." 419 nudged him in the consciousness space, "I haven't responded to the headquarters yet, so let them think that I'm stuck in the turbulence of time and space and can't receive any messages."
Jian Ziyan took a deep breath and closed his eyes again.
He returned to the consciousness space and hugged the round little system.
He had known for a long time that 419 would leave one day, but now that day had finally come, he really couldn't bear to let her go.
Like he said before, he didn't have much to begin with, and once he got something and lost it, it was a big blow to him.
419 obviously knew his mood, and lay obediently in Jian Ziyan's arms, saying: "Host, don't worry, I left an anchor on your soul. Whenever I have a holiday or no mission, I will come back to play with you!"
"You can still do this?" Jian Ziyan said, "After so long, you finally let me see a useful function."
419 fell silent, and gradually became angry like a pufferfish.
However, these words did comfort Jian Ziyan, and the reluctance before parting was instantly diluted.
…
The next day at noon, Qin Wangruyan came to pick up Jian Ziyan. After the two finished their meal, he took Jian Ziyan around Yancheng and visited two famous scenic spots. When the time was almost up, he sent him to the TV station.
That evening, the live broadcast started as scheduled.
The reputation of the National TV Station No. 1 among the people is not exaggerated. Its strong strength coupled with fresh and somewhat mysterious subject matter has attracted the attention of countless people. When the time came, many people gathered in the TV station and the online live broadcast room to watch the live broadcast.
Because it is a historical subject with a heavy sense, people are not surprised that the treasure appraisers are all old men and women... huh? Wait?
A bright red and bold eye-catching comment floated past.
[Fuck! Who is this pretty boy? Is he sitting in the wrong seat?]
Among the five treasure appraisers invited, there was a handsome and exquisite young man sitting. His aura, as radiant as divine light, was totally out of tune with the surroundings.
The barrage of comments, which had been fairly serious, suddenly exploded.
[This must be fake, such a young and experienced treasure appraiser?! ]
【Ahhhh little brother, look at the camera, look at the camera, I beg you! 】
[I never expected that I would lick the screen during a treasure appraisal program]
[Did he get in through the back door? The age difference is too abrupt, it looks like a grandfather playing with his grandson. ]
This program has a huge audience, including those who don’t know what’s going on and of course professionals.
[Fuck, has Jian Ziyan reached the level to be on this kind of show? As expected, the boss is the boss]
【Those in the antique circle, please share some knowledge. This handsome guy who is qualified to sit among the big guys is called Jian Ziyan. He has only been in the industry for less than two years. He has not passed any exams, but he is known as the "God-level treasure appraiser" by the whole circle. By the way, not only antiques, ancient books, ancient paintings, but even jewelry, all the treasures he appraised have never failed. So he doesn't need to use the back door. Besides, do you really think that anyone can get into the national number one station? 】
[You must be kidding... How is it possible that someone has been in the industry for two years and has never made a mistake in identification? ]
[So he is "god-level", lol]
…
Jian Ziyan, who was participating in the recording, could not see the various comments. Qin Wang
I can watch it in its entirety.
He wanted to smile when he saw people praising Jian Ziyan, but he frowned when he saw people flattering him and asking him to marry him, which made Xia Han, who was standing next to him, terrified.
Xia Han now knew why Jian Ziyan came to Yancheng on purpose. It was unexpected but also reasonable. He was glad that he was in the company now. If he was at home, he would have been strangled to death by his grandfather out of excitement.
The process of this program is very simple. It is presided over by five senior appraisers, two of whom specialize in ancient books and paintings, two specialize in antiques, and one Jian Ziyan sits in the middle.
Then someone will bring the treasure they want to appraise up on stage, and different appraisers will come out according to the classification. While appraising, they will also have to educate people about the relevant history and knowledge of such things. Therefore, the appraisers who come up on stage are required to have a very high level of background. After all, if they show any sign of timidity, they will lose face in front of the people of the whole country.
And because it was a live broadcast, no one else could help at all, and all the honor and disgrace had to be borne by the appraiser on the stage alone.
This made many people worry about the youngest one, Jian Ziyan.
Although he seems to have a great vision, when it comes to his background...even those who are optimistic about him dare not compare him with the bigwigs around him.
However, Jian Ziyan shocked everyone again.
No matter what is brought up, as long as he is called to the stage, he only needs to touch it and take a few glances to make an accurate judgment. At the same time, the relevant history and culture are slowly told in his pleasant voice, as if he is telling an ancient and beautiful story.
There was a treasure that even when others could not tell its origin, he could still tell it leisurely without showing any sign of disgrace.
At the beginning, some people were dissatisfied with Jian Ziyan, some people just wanted to watch the fun, and some people wanted to stir up trouble.
After a live show, people began to hesitate and started looking forward to what amazing performance he would have this time.
After three live broadcasts, people were completely convinced. Even the other four appraisers changed their gazes from suspicion to admiration. They would unconsciously ask for his opinions during the show and secretly respect him.
Jian Ziyan still had the same demeanor as when he came, and was not at all dazzled by the praise and respect.
Amid the audience's reluctance, the last episode of the show came on the seventh day.
It is said that some really good stuff will appear in this issue, so the appraisers and the audience are looking forward to it very much. Instead of being depressed, they are even more excited.
Jian Ziyan didn't feel anything, he just took his work seriously.
Amid the host's high-pitched voice, the first treasure holder appeared -
Jian Ziyan fixed his gaze on the tall and handsome figure walking out of the backstage halo and raised his eyebrows.
