Reborn Treasure Appraiser: I Really Didn’t Want to Be an Expert

Chapter 118: All National Treasures

Chapter 118: All National Treasures (Monthly Ticket Plus 66)

“Crash~Bang!”

The garage door rolled up to the ceiling, and the knocking sound startled a gray sparrow from the grass.

With two "whoosh" sounds, two black spots passed through the tree branches, and a few caramel-colored fallen leaves were blown down and floated onto the stone steps.

Wang Qizhi took out a duster to sweep the car. Ye Anning wanted to help, but Wang Qizhi thought she was in the way and drove her out.

"I don't know the good heart!"

Ye Anning ran out of the garage, muttering to himself.

Shan Wangshu was wearing a dark windbreaker and standing on the side of the road, his brows slightly furrowed, as if he was full of thoughts.

The scene of Wang Qizhi returning home yesterday afternoon, half drunk, circling around the living room like a donkey turning a millstone, came to mind:
"Oh, the golden crown of the prince consort?"

"A prince or an official crowned with pearls and flowers?"

“Can’t I buy it even if I have money?”

Afterwards, Shan Wangshu knew that Lin Sicheng had found a bargain again.

When Ye An Ning returned, she found out more: a golden crown and an official crown with pearls. They weren't big things, but they were something you could only come across.

The weird thing is, three people went there together, and all three looked at the items together, but the leak was picked up by Lin Sicheng alone?

why?
Because the two didn't know each other at all.

Even when Lin Sicheng stuffed the thing into Wang Qizhi's arms, he didn't recognize it at first.

It’s boring to talk about it too much, but Shan Wangshu always feels that someone like Lin Sicheng is several times better than those so-called talented men of equal status that his second brother-in-law mentioned.
I just feel so worried for Ye Anning...

While thinking, she exhaled again: "Where's Lin Sicheng? Hasn't he left yet?"

"I left early!" Ye Anning propped up his chin, "Hey!"

Shan Wangshu turned his head.

Not far away, on the edge of the playground at the entrance of the Entrepreneurship Center, Lin Sicheng was standing with his arms folded and his head lowered, as if he was in deep thought.

The girl stood beside him with a folder in her hand, flipping through it from time to time and saying a few words.

She has delicate features and a graceful figure.

Shan Wangshu frowned: "Li Zhen?"

Ye Anning nodded: "Li Zhen!"

Wang Qizhi had mentioned her twice, so Shan Wangshu knew her name. But she didn't know how beautiful she was.

Wang Qizhi also said that Lin Sicheng was not like ordinary students: he was young and restless, with a head full of hormones.

But the problem is, we are not afraid of thieves stealing, but we are afraid of thieves thinking about it.

Of course, the girl (Ye Anning) is naturally the smartest!
Shan Wangshu turned around and asked pointedly, "Did Lin Sicheng mention that calligraphy piece, the one by Dong Qichang?"

Ye Anning nodded: "Yes, he said he would put it with me, but I didn't want it!"

"It doesn't matter who you release it to, just don't sell it. Don't sell it, and don't let him sell it!"

Ye Anning smiled and said, "What if he's short of money?"

"You're so stupid! You won't lend it to him? If it's not enough, won't you ask me or your uncle for a loan?"

Ye Anning laughed "Hahaha": "How can you be so embarrassed?"

"I'm your aunt, and I brought you up. What are you embarrassed about?"

"I'm talking about Lin Sicheng!"

Shan Wangshu was stunned for a moment and stared at her: "Laugh? Then you'll cry!"

While chatting and laughing, Lin Sicheng must have seen this side and walked over.

"Master's wife!"

"Yeah!" Shan Wangshu smiled and nodded, then looked towards the edge of the playground. "Girlfriend?"

Lin Sicheng didn't realize it at all, and replied casually: "No, he's a tutor hired by the studio, so he's a part-time teacher!"

Shan Wangshu suddenly became interested: "Are we partners?"

"No, it's a fixed salary, plus bonuses!"

"Yeah, that must be a very high income! How about An Ning and I also take part-time jobs?" "You're most welcome!"

After making a few jokes, Wang Qizhi backed the car out.

First, I sent Ye Anning there, then I sent Shan Wangshu to the Tourism Bureau, and then we turned a corner and arrived at the Provincial Museum.

During the break in the car, Lin Sicheng asked, "Teacher, has Mr. Sun called again?"

"No, he must have been scared. But I asked around, and he's from a relatively clean background. So let's look up his information first. If we can't find anything, we'll see if we should contact him."

This guy is okay: he only sells imitations of antiques, not the real thing.

I guess he has a lot of power, otherwise he would have been able to get information about Wang Qizhi in just one meal.

He's also incredibly single-minded and incredibly clever. For example, in yesterday's phone call, Boss Sun's purchase was fake, his real intention was to express his feelings: "Professor Wang, you have a keen eye, and that's your talent. I'm unlucky that I missed out on this treasure, and I won't hold you accountable later."

That's why Lin Sicheng and Wang Qizhi said he was very powerful.

Wang Qizhi was surprised again: "Don't tell me, this guy is really good. He found those two things: the golden crown is from Xiaodongmen, and the pearl flower is from Xicang..."

Lin Sicheng was stunned: That’s amazing.

Didn’t you see yesterday that Professor Wang was holding the golden crown and looked at it for a long time before he could make out anything?
What's more, this Boss Sun is a gold digger from shit?
Amidst sighs, the two men got out of the car, and three others came up and down the steps at the main entrance.

Wang Qizhi and Lin Sicheng hurried to greet them.

These three are department heads of the Provincial Museum’s Cultural Relics Protection and Restoration Laboratory.

At first glance, it sounds like a laboratory?

But the scale of this laboratory is twice that of the Experimental Center of the School of Cultural Heritage of Xijing University, with two six-story buildings connected by three corridors.

There are more researchers among them than professors in the Cultural Heritage Preservation Department of Xi’an University.

Let’s rank the four major museums in China: it’s hard to say whether the first place is the Palace Museum or the National Museum of China, and it’s also hard to say whether the last place is the Nanjing Museum, the Shanghai Museum, or the Henan Museum, but the third place is definitely the Shaanxi Museum.

The reason is simple: because of the Qin Dynasty, because of the Han Dynasty, because of the Tang Dynasty, because of Chang'an...

There were two men and one woman. One man was younger, in his early forties, and was the deputy director of the experimental center. The other two, the man was older, probably in his fifties, and was the head of the metal artifact restoration department, while the woman was the team leader of the gold and silver restoration team.

We didn't know each other, but they were all very enthusiastic. After introducing ourselves to each other, the group of five entered the laboratory building.

The deputy director gave a few more instructions, and Section Chief Yao and Team Leader Chen took the two to the information center.

Wang Qizhi had contacted me the day after work began yesterday afternoon, so I was fully prepared: a reference room just like the main hall, with endless bookcases and seven or eight long desks in the middle, filled with file bags and files.

Six data clerks were on high alert.

After taking a look, Lin Sicheng was secretly shocked.

Lin Sicheng didn't know what would happen if the president came, but if the dean came, he would definitely not be treated the same way, because they were not under the same system.

But with Professor Wang here, things are definitely different...

While sighing, Wang Qizhi talked to the two responsible persons for a while, then extended his hand: "Sicheng, where is the catalogue?"

Lin Sicheng was prepared and took out a folder from his bag.

It was actually just a piece of paper, but to show respect, it was put in a folder.

Wang Qizhi took it and handed it over with both hands: "Team Leader Chen, I'm in trouble!"

"Professor Wang, you're welcome!"

The female team leader took it in her hand, flipped it open, took a look, and was stunned.

Then he raised his head and looked at Wang Qizhi with a slightly strange look.

At first, Wang Qizhi was confused. He took a look backwards and took a deep breath.

Lin Sicheng, do you really dare to ask for it?
