The bid did not even reach two thousand dollars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person who bid obviously knew that this vase was a counterfeit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, the vase was sold for one thousand and eight hundred dollars. It was basically the same as the price that Jian Yiling had guessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the final price of the vase seemed to mock Cai Qinyue’s previous words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Jian Yiling did not think too much into the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She merely looked at the vase from a scientific perspective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For example, she looked at the ink of the calligraphy and the material used in constructing the item. Therefore, if the material appeared after the dynasty mentioned, it was undoubtedly a counterfeit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The person who made the blue and white porcelain vase had made an obvious mistake. The stamp that they used on the vase was incorrect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, there was no need to go up close to determine the authenticity of the vase.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the second auction item came out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a painting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister, what do you think about this painting?” Wen Cheng asked Wen Nuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m not sure. I need to take a closer look at it,” Wen Nuan replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This painting could not be judged from a distance. She needed to be up close to observe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Okay. Let’s go down to take a closer look.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Cheng’s thoughts on this matter were the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Wen Cheng asked the woman wearing a cheongsam to take them down for a closer look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In addition, Wen Cheng invited Jian Yiling to come along. However, Jian Yiling shook her head and declined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Jian Yiling refused, Wen Cheng did not ask his daughter Wen Ruo to join him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Wen Ruo noticed this, her face went pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Cheng did not ask Wen Ruo to come along because he knew that she had little talent in antique identification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Ruo was talented at drawing and calligraphy. He recognized her ability in these aspects. However, she was less talented when it came to identifying antiques.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, Wen Cheng did not want his daughter to make a fool of herself. That was the reason why he did not invite her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Wen Ruo did not think this way. She was shocked that her father invited Jian Yiling and not her when he was planning to go and identify a painting. This really hurt her self-esteem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, when Wen Cheng and Wen Ruo returned from observing the painting, they continued to talk. Cai Qinyue and Wen Ruo could not contribute anything to the conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, Wen Cheng decided to not participate in the bidding. He wasn’t sure about the authenticity of the painting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the auction continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When a folding fan appeared onto the stage for auction, Cai Qinyue could not hold herself back anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Qinyue asked her daughter: “What do you think about this fan?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Ruo commented: “I think it’s pretty good. I can’t pick out any faults from the painting and the words on the fan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you think it’s authentic?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I think so.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I agree,” Cai Qinyue replied. She liked the fan on the stage. Therefore, she wanted to bid for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Husband, I want the folding fan. Can you help me bid on it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Cheng frowned: “This folding fan... It might have some problems.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Nuan turned around to convince her sister-in-law as well: “The painting and words on this folding fan seem to be a bit strange.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Nuan did not dare to be absolute with her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even an expert in this area could easily make a mistake from time to time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, Wen Nuan could only be vague with her words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This place was basically gambling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Cai Qinyue was unwilling to listen to Wen Nuan’s words. Right now, she was still quite upset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why don’t we go down there to take a look then? If you notice a problem with the fan, then I will not bid for it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Cai Qinyue said these words, in her heart, she was determined to buy the folding fan already.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Wen Nuan did not want Cai Qinyue to be scammed, she decided to follow them down to the first floor to carefully observe the fan.\u003C\u002Fp>",734,"2026-06-06T02:09:03.700Z",1,"novelbin.me","735b14fa5a1ffe09e29b0612d8f87ee410a678638708f7155b5a5a54a53d1eaf","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-603","from-sidekick-to-bigshot-chapter-601",1465,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffrom-sidekick-to-bigshot-cover.jpg"]
