Chapter 88
Lin Tianwu was dumbfounded and stared at Lin Ling in disbelief.
They actually conducted such a high-profile on-site appraisal.
Did he also know that the ancient painting was genuine?
How can it be!
Su Qingyan sneered, "He wouldn't be stupid enough to forge evidence, would he?"
"With so many people present, there must be quite a few experts here. Making fake documents will only be exposed."
"He's trying to forge documents! Don't be fooled by him!" Lin Tianwu suddenly stood up and shouted.
The crowd at the scene was abuzz with discussion, since Lin Ling had lost 60 million yuan and might very well want to get the fake item authenticated as real.
"Perhaps this is a setup by Tianxing Auction House."
"He can't be that stupid, can he? To give false testimony in front of so many people."
“These three masters are very famous, and it is impossible for them to make false testimonies for him for money.”
Seeing that things were not going well and fearing retaliation for having the painting identified as a fake, the fat old man turned around and tried to slip away.
Lin Ling said calmly, "Wang Tiechui, wait a moment."
The fat old man trembled with fright: "You, you've already paid, you can't go back on your word."
"I'm not that kind of person, I just need you to testify for me later." Lin Ling smiled.
As the fat old man hesitated, several thugs in black suits wearing sunglasses surrounded him.
The crowd erupted in even greater uproar.
Seeing that Lin Ling seemed to be there to cause trouble, Lai Qing's face darkened: "President Lin, my Tianxing Auction House is not to be trifled with. If you want to take action against the seller, I advise you to think twice."
"Let's begin." Lin Ling was too lazy to waste words with him.
Three masters on stage began the authentication process, which was projected onto a large screen so that everyone could see it clearly.
As the results of the tests came out one by one, everyone at the scene was stunned.
The paper is old, the ink is old, and every stroke is in the style of Wu Daozi.
The three appraisers were stunned, their voices trembling with excitement.
"Open the door! Open the door wide!"
"This is absolutely genuine!"
"I never imagined that I would be able to authenticate a genuine work by Wu Daozi in my lifetime!"
There was an uproar at the scene.
If this painting is genuine, its value is definitely over 200 million.
Lin Ling only spent 60 million to bid, which means he made at least 100 million.
Lin Tianwu slumped in his chair, looking utterly hopeless.
Su Qingyan's face flushed red, and her eyes were filled with resentment as she looked at Lin Ling.
Why?
Why should he get to take the real picture?
Su Qingyan trembled with anger: "Impossible! Don't be fooled by them, this is very likely a setup."
Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she said righteously, "After all, the genuine product is worth hundreds of millions, and these appraisal masters are very likely to join forces with him."
"And think about it, this fat old man is just an ordinary person, how could he possibly obtain Wu Daozi's authentic work?"
The three appraisal experts were furious.
"I've appraised treasures worth over a billion, so what's two or three hundred million?"
"I've spent my whole life appraising art; I'm not going to ruin my reputation because of this painting."
"Little girl, you're so pretty, how can you have such a vicious tongue?"
Lin Ling smiled and said, "Wang Dachui, you found this painting in your rented room, right?"
"The landlord of that house disappeared after renting it to you, right?"
Wang Dachui paused for a moment, then nodded: "You, you investigated me?"
“Yes, the homeowner’s original name was Fan Keda. He went abroad last year and was killed by his enemies.” Lin Ling smiled faintly: “His ancestor was Fan Laohu, a famous landlord in the Southern Wilderness.”
"And this painting was passed down to him by Fan Laohu."
"If you don't believe me, you can check it out."
After saying that, he glanced at Lin Tianwu with a mocking expression.
The origin of this ancient painting was discovered by Lin Tianwu in his previous life and confirmed to be genuine.
In this life, it turned out to be a wedding dress for myself.
