Sixty-seven million!
When this number came out of Bai Hua's mouth, all the guests opened their mouths and all turned their attention to Mr. Meng.
Of course, they didn't really think that a foreign child bride could afford the jade seal, so they unanimously concluded that the item was finalized by Mr. Meng.
However, Mr. Meng also had a dull look on his face at this time. He slowly turned to Fu Tong'er, his eyes also full of disbelief.
"Grandpa, Grandpa, I just want to give you a surprise..." Fu Tong'er lowered her head in panic, not daring to look at the old man, but she held her hands in her sleeves and clenched them angrily. She also didn't expect that Bai Hua would show her off in public at this time, even though he had promised not to reveal the price before.
Meng Ziheng, who was on the high platform, was so shocked that his face turned pale. He naturally knew the Meng family's financial situation. Sixty-seven million yuan, which almost wiped out the Meng family's bottom line.
If this thing was real, it would be easy to say. If it was a fake, he didn't dare to imagine the consequences.
"Tong'er, why didn't you tell me about such a big thing in advance?" Mr. Meng lowered his voice and could only ask in a low voice. Now that everyone in the audience was paying attention to them, if he really wanted to put down his burden, he would be beating himself up. face.
But he didn't expect that Fu Tong'er would be so bold. He just asked her to learn to take care of the Meng family's finances, and in the blink of an eye, she spent 67 million.
"Grandpa, I just got the news by chance a few days ago. I know that you have always wanted to find your ancestor's things. In a moment of urgency, please ask Grandpa to punish you." Fu Tong'er had already noticed that the old man's attitude had softened, and now he said everything Kind words make the old man happy.
And Mr. Meng was really coaxed out of his temper, "Hey, you girl, you are too courageous." As soon as he said this, he already meant to forgive. After all, this is what he is determined to get, and the old man also He accepted the reality and felt very grateful for Fu Tong'er's filial piety.
"Haha, Miss Fu is indeed a queen from a famous family. She is courageous and courageous. She and Young Master Meng are a perfect match." Bai Hua did not hesitate to praise him.
But the more he praised, the uglier Meng Ziheng’s expression became.
After the scene returned to quiet, we entered the appraisal process. At the beginning, three old people from the industry came forward to make a judgment. They looked around, looked left and right, used magnifying glasses and wiped cloths. After struggling for a while, a few people finally sat down and made a satisfied decision. nod.
"Yes, this should be true. The price of 67 million is not a loss."
Mr. Meng in the audience breathed a sigh of relief. The tension on his face faded a bit, and he became more and more satisfied with Fu Tong'er's actions.
Song Ye had been sitting behind them and watching with cold eyes. Looking at the picture of a loving father and a filial son in front of him, he felt that it was so fake that it was disgusting.
After the first round of expert appraisal, the second round of appraisal was conducted at Meng Ziheng.
He has a slender figure and a face like a crown jewel. Standing on the stage and doing nothing, he gives people the feeling of a jade tree facing the wind. At this time, he has a sullen face and looks at the jade seal in his hand intently. He is even more handsome. To the end of the world.
Song Ye didn't even need to stretch his ears to hear the chatter around him, which was full of longing and admiration for Meng Ziheng.
She also raised her eyes and stared at the other person carefully. From her eyebrows to her lips, to her figure and fingers, there was no doubt that she was an absolutely outstanding being at the age of sixteen. In her previous life, she had met Song Ye. Maybe like other girls, they are so obsessed that they can't help themselves.
But after all, her mentality is different now, and her age is different. No matter how outstanding Meng Ziheng is at this age, he is just like a little brother in her eyes, unable to make any waves in her steel-like heart.
It's not that he's not good enough, it's just that the time when they met was wrong.
After withdrawing his thoughts, Meng Ziheng on the stage became a little more solemn after almost searching and finding no flaws.
"Young Master Meng looked so carefully, but what problem did he see?" Bai Hua stood aside, pretending to be watching a show.
"...No." Meng Ziheng held it in for a long time before spitting out two words in a very low voice.
"Haha, then this jade seal is real. I have to congratulate Mr. Meng for fulfilling his long-cherished wish." Bai Hua laughed a few times and raised his hands to bow in congratulations.
Even Mr. Meng, who had always been at odds with him, softened his expression at this time and was about to stand up and respond.
"Wait a minute." Suddenly, Meng Ziheng interrupted their movements, his expression still serious and solemn.
Then, under the slightly dissatisfied look of Mr. Meng, Meng Ziheng asked someone to fetch a piece of cotton thread, and then tied the cotton thread to the middle of the jade seal with complicated and quick techniques.
Finally, under the horrified eyes of everyone, he opened his hands and pulled up the cotton thread, causing the jade seal to spin a circle in mid-air, and then hung it there with its head facing down.
"Nonsense, the national jade seal is such a noble object, how can you treat it so casually." Seeing the ancestor's things being thrown away like this, Mr. Meng was the first to stand up and criticize.
It wasn't that the others didn't want to speak, but they were afraid of the power of the Meng family and didn't dare to speak, but in their hearts they blamed Meng Ziheng for not knowing what to do.
But is he really a reckless person? The answer is naturally not. How can a person who can be regarded as an indicator in the circle play with the jade seal casually.
After everyone was frightened, they couldn't help but have doubts.
Sure enough, the next second, Meng Ziheng said calmly: "This jade seal is a fake."
Fake!
How can it be? Fu Tong'er was the first to stand up. Her smiling face suddenly lost all color, and she couldn't help but said, "It's impossible."
Not to mention that she didn't believe it, even the three old scholars just stood up and protested, "Young Master Meng, what evidence do you have for saying this is a fake? There is nothing wrong with this jade seal, whether it is patina or bottom. If If you don't explain why you are so ugly, I won't accept it."
When it comes to reputation and ability, several people are fighting for their reasons.
And Meng Ziheng has never been a person without aim. He kept holding the jade seal high, indicating to everyone to see clearly, "The ancient craftsmanship is not as good as the current technology and can avoid many loopholes, so even if it is a jade seal, when the gold is injected into the groove of the model, It is inevitable that air bubbles will be produced in the gaps, which will make the overall shape of the jade seal symmetrical, but in fact the center of gravity is deviated. In the case of bubble gaps, if the jade seal is real and hung, it must be light at one end and heavy at the other, slightly tilted. And If it were fake, it would be like this, completely balanced and without deviation.”
Not even Mr. Meng knew this skill, because there was no record of it in the classics at home. This was something that Meng Ziheng learned from physics knowledge in the later period and combined it with various experiments.
Only then did the old scholar and everyone present suddenly realize.
