“Deputy Director, the Transmission Seal in my hand is as good as fake, if you don’t believe me, you can appraise it yourself, it’s too arbitrary for you to jump to conclusions without even looking at it and say that it’s fake.”
Lin Yun said while placing the wooden box he was carrying in his hand on the table.
The precious and incomparable Transmission Seal was placed in this four-square wooden box by Lin Yun.
However, the vice-librarian had no intention of opening it to look at it.
“Is there still a need to look? The Seal of Transmission has been missing for more than a thousand years, countless people have been searching for it for these thousand years without its whereabouts, and I’ve heard that the Seal of Transmission has long since been dispersed overseas, so how could you possibly obtain it!”The deputy curator snorted.
The two assistants, a man and a woman, were also covering their mouths and snorting.
Immediately after, the deputy curator resumed his seat and said in an unimpressed manner:
“I’ve encountered more than one or two people like you, isn’t it just that you want to cheat the prize money with a fake? This you’re not a place where you can woo and cheat, hurry up and get lost, don’t let me call for someone to come and arrest you, when that happens you’ll be a fraud.”
“Well then, congratulations, because of your mistakes and complacency, it caused the Imperial Capital Museum to be left without this national treasure.”
Lin Yun said while picking up the wooden box that was placed on the table.
Lin Yun had originally thought of donating it for free, but since this person had such an attitude, it was better to keep it for himself.
Lin Yun picked up the small wooden box on the table and turned around to walk out.
“This person even dared to counterfeit the Seal of Transmission, how brainless.”A female assistant snorted from behind.
Another male assistant also snorted, “That’s not true, if he changed an ordinary antique, we might still believe it, casually daring to say he owns the Seal of the Passing State, if we believe it, that’s just brain-dead.”
“These days, people with this kind of IQ also dare to run out to cheat.”The deputy librarian said.
Lin Yun stopped his feet for a step after hearing their arguments, but still didn’t turn his head to talk nonsense to them.
They could believe it or not if they liked, to Lin Yun, he didn’t care to explain too much to these people yet.
If they didn’t believe Lin Yun, they were the ones who would lose out by missing out on this national treasure.
Just as Lin Yun was about to walk out the door, an old man with white hair, a withered figure, and old glasses walked in through the door.
“What happened ah? I heard your laughter from far away.”The old man opened his mouth to enquire.
“Old Curator.”
The deputy curator and the two assistants hurriedly rose to greet him.
“Old curator, this kid came over with a box, saying that it contains the Shi Huang’s state seal and wants to donate it to us, you say it’s funny or not.”The deputy curator said with a smile.
After the deputy curator said this, he couldn’t help but laugh again, as well as his two assistants, who also laughed along with him.
“What? Passing the state seal!”
After the old curator heard this, his entire body was shocked for a moment.
Immediately after, the old curator hurriedly inquired, “Then have you guys seen it?”
“Old curator, there’s no need to look at it at all, it’s simply impossible, the Seal of Transmission of State has long since been strayed into foreign countries and is unknown, it’s not known to be treasured by whichever bigwig from abroad, so how could he possibly possess it!”The deputy curator said with a smile.
The old curator’s face sank: “Nonsense! How many times have I said, do our line, must be rigorous, absolutely can not rely on the intuition, even if you think it is impossible, but also to appraise some before making a conclusion, how can you open your mouth!”
The deputy curator and the two assistants did not look too good after being scolded.
“The old curator is right to lecture.”The two assistants hurriedly bowed their heads.
But the deputy librarian was still not very convinced in his heart.
“Old curator, although your words are right, we can’t be too pedantic, this kind of thing is obviously impossible, is there still a need to waste time identifying it? This kind of crook’s IQ is in a hurry to fake a heirloom seal.”The deputy curator snorted.
The old curator didn’t answer him again, but instead looked at Lin Yun who was about to walk out the door.
“This gentleman, please stay for a moment.”The old curator called out to Lin Yun.
“Anything else?”Lin Yun stopped and turned his head to look at the old curator.
“This gentleman, could you please take out your things and show them to me?”The old curator opened his mouth to enquire.
“Do you want to take a look? Fine.”Lin Yun responded and then walked back.
Lin Yun had just heard someone else address this old man as the old curator, so he thought he was the curator of this museum.
Immediately after, Lin Yun placed the box on the table.
The old curator walked over to the table and started to remove the cloth wrapped around the box.
The deputy curator and his two assistants all hurried over.
The idea in the deputy curator’s mind was simple, after the appraisal was completed and it was determined that it was a fake, he would be able to turn the tables and refute the curator’s words that had reprimanded him earlier, and then he would see what the curator had to say.
As for the authenticity of this thing, he is not worried at all, how can it be real? This is not a joke! The Seal of Transmission had been missing for over a thousand years, how could it appear so easily.
Taking a step back, even if it was obtained, who would donate it for nothing, so it was definitely impossible!
By this time, the old curator had already opened the box.
A piece of the seal of state was reflected in their eyes.
The old curator slowly lowered the state seal and held it out.
“Wow!”
The two assistants were stunned by the appearance and quality of the Heirloom State Seal when they saw it.
“The imitation is quite similar, at first glance it looks like that, but the fake can’t be real, it can’t stand up to inspection.”The deputy curator hugged his bladder with a look of watching the show.
“Also.”Even an assistant nodded.
The old curator ignored him, but first looked at the words sealed under the jade, then picked up a finger-sized strong jade torch and shone it into the Heirloom Seal for a preliminary inspection.
“This …… this ……”
After the old curator examined it for a moment, his emotions suddenly flared up.
“What’s wrong?”The deputy curator and the two assistants were astonished.
“This …… this is most likely, a real state seal!”The old curator’s voice trembled as he let out a cry of alarm, his hands were trembling continuously, and his entire person was out of sorts.
The old curator had seen so many treasures in his life, even if he got some heavy treasures, he could be calm and relaxed, and rarely lost his temper.
At this moment, he lost his temper completely.
“What? Really?!”
The deputy librarian and the two assistants exclaimed in unison after hearing this.
The deputy curator hurriedly said, “Old curator, you …… your joke can be a big one, the seal of state has been lost for more than a thousand years, it has long since been strayed overseas, and I don’t know by which character’s collection, how can it suddenly appear in his hands! This absolutely can’t be real! It must be an imitation!”
The curator sneered, “Imitation? Hehe, the seal of state is made from He Shi Bi as the raw material, such a large piece of jade and with such a good texture, trying to find a piece of jade that is this good and this large to imitate is simply impossible, so there’s absolutely no way this is an imitation!”
As long as one could determine that this jade was real, one could basically determine that this Seal of State was real, and the characters engraved in seal script on the Seal of State also matched perfectly, with no traces of ageing in the slightest.
After the deputy director heard this, he could no longer remain calm, he hurriedly picked up the strong jade torch and personally tested it.
