His attitude was very humble, completely different from his usual arrogance.

Hearing that Mr. Qi, who always compared himself to Zhuge Kongming, was going to teach him, Lin Dafu's chest puffed out even higher, as if he had become an existence that surpassed Zhuge Kongming.

He said proudly, "This thing in your hand is priceless. It's a rhinoceros horn inlaid with gold, silver and bronze from the Western Han Dynasty."

"This is a rare treasure, but a single piece of this kind is not suitable as a betrothal gift to His Majesty. You should put it back."

As he spoke, he gestured with his hands, and his eyes revealed a hint of disdain for Mr. Qi!

Who is this? Your Majesty is choosing single items for your wedding!

"I'll pick out some nice things for you, my student."

Lin Dafu said this and walked forward with his somewhat clumsy steps.

Mr. Qi listened to his words and did not argue. He just nodded silently and gently put down the gold, silver and bronze rhinoceros urn in his hand.

He smiled and said to Lin Dafu, "Then I really must learn from you as my teacher today."

"please!"

Lin Dafu raised his head proudly and took Mr. Qi to two jade cups covered with glass.

The glass cover sparkled in the candlelight, as if it was covering the jade cup with a layer of mysterious gauze.

Lin Dafu pointed at the jade cup, his eyes gleaming as he said, "See? This pair of things is suitable for His Majesty's betrothal gift. What do you, a bookworm, know? Betrothal gifts must come in pairs. Who would use a single treasure as a betrothal gift?"

His voice echoed in the treasure room, carrying a hint of unquestionable majesty.

Hearing Lin Dafu's words, Mr. Qi's slightly furrowed brows relaxed. He thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "That makes sense. I've really learned a lot today."

He took two steps forward, approached the glass cover, and looked at the pair of jade cups carefully, his eyes full of curiosity.

"Then may I ask, Mr. Lin, what treasure is this?" There was a hint of respect in his tone.

Hearing Mr. Qian's humble attitude, Lin Dafu was overjoyed.

He patted his chest and said loudly, "This thing has a great origin."

He paused deliberately, as if to whet Mr. Qi's appetite.

Then he continued, "This pair is from the Western Han Dynasty jade cups. Do you know what jade cups are?"

There was a hint of mystery in his eyes.

Mr. Qi shook his head, his eyes full of anticipation. Seeing this, Lin Dafu grew even more proud. He raised his voice and said, "Jade cups were used to collect dew in the Western Han Dynasty. They were used by the emperors of the Western Han Dynasty. They're a perfect pair. Do you think it would be honorable to give them to His Majesty as a betrothal gift?"

As he spoke, he gestured in the air with his hands, as if he had already seen the satisfied expression on His Majesty's face when he received the betrothal gift.

Mr. Qi smiled and nodded, with approval in his eyes.

"Mr. Lin, what you said makes sense. Can you pick a few more?" There was a hint of request in his words.

Lin Dafu was flattered to the point of being dizzy, like a blown-up balloon, floating in the air and not knowing what was going on.

He took Mr. Qi around the treasure house, introducing his favorite items one by one.

Each piece is a pair of fine products. Some are exquisite jade pendants with lines as delicate as hair, as if carrying the traces of time; some are delicate gold ornaments, shining brightly under the light, and every detail demonstrates the superb skills of the craftsmen; and there are also ancient calligraphy and paintings. Although the paper has yellowed, the brush and ink on it are still vivid and fresh, as if they can bring people into another time and space.

Mr. Qi felt that looking at a large pile of labeled things, he felt that it was enough.

But unexpectedly, Lin Dafu was still relentless, like a child immersed in his own world, constantly showing off his treasures.
