Chapter 388: Shouldn't you apologize to me?

~7 min read 1,380 words

He Yulin briefly explained the whole story to the president on the other end of the phone, and then put away his phone.

Almost at the same time, Chen Sanping's phone rang. He glanced at the caller ID, his expression panicked, and his body swayed, as if what he was holding wasn't a phone, but a timed bomb that could explode at any time.

In the end, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and press the answer button.

"Hello... President Li... wh... what? President Li, listen to my explanation, I was just confused for a moment, please forgive me this one time, I will definitely not dare to do it again in the future..."

However, the other end of the phone didn't listen to his explanation at all and hung up the phone decisively.

Chen Sanping was dumbfounded. There was no trace of the spirited and complacent expression he had before on his face, only a gray defeat remained.

"Boss Chen was actually removed from his post?"

Someone close to Chen Sanping accidentally heard the content of his conversation with President Li and shouted in disbelief.

"What? No way..."

"Boss Chen is the vice president of the association. The only person who can remove him is President Li!"

"Even if He Yulin is an expert, he doesn't have such great power, right?"

Curious people took out their mobile phones to search for He Yulin's name, and were also shocked when they saw the information in the search engine.

"So he is President Li's mentor, no wonder..."

"It's not that his power is great. Chen Sanping insisted that the porcelain in Mu Qiu nian's hands were all fakes without any evidence. Isn't this rumor-mongering and slander?"

Finally, someone reacted. The reason why He Yulin was able to kick Chen Sanping out of the Antique Association with one phone call was not because of how great his power was or his close relationship with the current president, but because Chen Sanping violated the rules first and had seriously disrupted the order of the industry.

"I said Boss Mu is usually honest and honest, he doesn't look like someone who sells fakes."

"I also think Boss Mu was wronged..."

After Chen Sanping was removed from his post, the direction in the shop immediately showed a one-sided trend. Those who had helped Chen Sanping mock Mu Qiu nian before now began to stand up for Mu Qiu nian one after another.

Of course, there were also some people who cared about this Western Zhou Dynasty pottery jar that had been personally appraised by He Yulin.

"Old Master He, is this pottery jar really from the Western Zhou Dynasty? Can you infer the specific era?"

"Old Master He, if this pottery jar were to go to an auction, what would be the starting price?"

Facing everyone's questions, He Yulin pondered for a moment and then said: "The specific era still needs to be tested by professional appraisal instruments. I heard that this gentleman is from Huaxia, and your Huaxia has very advanced and professional appraisal institutions. You can send this pottery jar over for appraisal. Of course, I can also issue you an appraisal certificate issued by the Y Country Cultural Relics Association."

"Then I will trouble you, Old Master He." Xu Tian nodded and thanked him.

Compared to his good mood, the expressions of Chen Sanping and Li Wancai on the side were already ugly to the extreme.

Especially Li Wancai, he gritted his teeth and looked at Chen Sanping: "Boss Chen, if I hadn't bought your set of Song Dynasty blue and white porcelain, this Western Zhou pottery jar would have been mine!"

He was now regretting it so much that his intestines were turning green. He could have bought a Western Zhou pottery jar for just a few million. The profit from this was not as simple as three times.

Chen Sanping also didn't expect that there would really be a rare peerless treasure among this pile of inconspicuous porcelain in Mu Qiu nian's hands.

He had now been removed from the position of vice president, and because that set of Song Dynasty porcelain was identified as a work imitated by Qing Dynasty craftsmen, both his status and reputation had plummeted.

Damn it, this batch of porcelain should have been his. If it weren't for Xu Tian intervening and buying it all, that rare Western Zhou pottery jar should have belonged to him now!

Both Chen Sanping and Li Wancai felt that if it weren't for Xu Tian, this peerless treasure should have belonged to them. At this moment, they wished they could snatch the pottery jar from Xu Tian's hands.

However, in this public setting, no matter how strong their unspeakable little thoughts were, they couldn't get their wish.

Not to mention that there were so many people watching around, even if Xu Tian was just a male pet beside the Tang family head, they didn't have the guts to snatch things from him.

Xu Tian ignored the pale-faced Li Wancai and Chen Sanping, but looked at Jiang Yan and the mobile phone he was propping up beside him.

At this time, whether it was Jiang Yan or the Tang family high-level executives in the video call on the mobile phone, their expressions were even uglier than Li Wancai and the others. If you didn't know better, you would think that what the Tang family bought this time wasn't a rare Western Zhou pottery jar, but that worthless imitation Song porcelain.

Xu Tian took the pottery jar from Mu Qiu nian, who had not yet recovered from his excitement, and walked to the mobile phone to show it to Tang Jihuai and the others.

"You see clearly now, this is a Western Zhou cloud and thunder pattern pottery jar, and it has also been appraised by experts here in Y Country. It should be qualified to be the treasure of the Jiangcheng Museum, right?"

Jiang Yan looked at the experts beside him with a dark face: "You guys go over and check it carefully for me, see if there is any problem with this pottery jar!"

The experts swarmed up and carefully checked the pottery jar in Xu Tian's hands in front of the Tang family high-level executives in the video and Jiang Yan.

In the end, they could only nod helplessly.

"Manager Jiang, there is really no problem with this pottery jar..."

"Based on my experience, the probability of it being genuine is at least 90%."

In the antique circle, a 90% probability is almost equivalent to defaulting to the authenticity of this antique. After all, before machine testing, no one can draw a conclusion and speak too absolutely.

"Mr. Xu said before that he had an eye for this batch of porcelain from Boss Mu. Could it be that he has some kind of sixth sense that can perceive antiques?"

At this moment, these experts from the Tang Group no longer looked at Xu Tian with the kind of contempt they had before, but instead had a bit more envy.

Buying a Western Zhou pottery jar the first time he bought antiques, even if it was just a coincidence, such luck was something they couldn't ask for.

Compared to these excited experts, the Tang family high-level executives represented by Tang Jihuai had awkward expressions, especially Tang Jihuai. He glared at Xu Tian with gritted teeth, somewhat in a state of exasperation.

Who could have thought that Xu Tian, who knew nothing about antiques, would actually be able to encounter such a precious antique? Even experts in the antique circle wouldn't dare to guarantee that they could encounter such a rare treasure in their lifetime. This is simply lower than the probability of winning the lottery.

"Everyone, according to our previous bet, shouldn't you apologize to me and admit that you are incompetent and short-sighted?"

"You..." Du Zhongyan still wanted to deny it, but when he opened his mouth, he found that he couldn't even find a reason to quibble.

The experts sent by their Tang family and the appraisers in Y Country all judged that this antique was an extremely precious Western Zhou pottery, and Xu Tian couldn't fake it at all. ===== CHAPTER 389 =====
