Seeing Fang Yang staring at him with a very subtle look, the old man coughed a bit uncomfortably.

"Ordinary people, especially those in the photo studio business, would keep the negatives."

"Actually, besides this photo, my family has also passed down quite a few photos, as well as some negatives."

"They were all shot very beautifully."

"I think the most valuable one is this photo."

"Everything I said is true."

"This photo can withstand archaeological verification."

"You said you have the negatives, so are the negatives still there?"

Fang Yang thought that the negatives might be more important.

"Yes, of course I have them."

The old man responded immediately, and then said to Fang Yang in a very nervous tone in a low voice: "Mr. Fang Yang, what is your opinion on this photo? My old friends say it's fake; what do you think?"

The old man was actually very sure that the photo was real, but because there were too many people whispering "fake, fake" in his ears,

it made him start to feel a bit unconfident.

"This photo is real."

Fang Yang nodded affirmatively: "Of course, I can say for sure that after this, it can be handed over to the people at the Cultural Relics Bureau to handle; they have their own set of verification methods."

Actually, through this photo, Fang Yang also wanted to ask about some other things, but he felt that even if he didn't ask, the people from the Cultural Relics Bureau would take the initiative to find the old man, and at that time, the local Cultural Relics Bureau people could deal with the old man directly.

Because he was very sure of this in his heart, Fang Yang didn't say much more.

They called the Cultural Relics Bureau.

When the other party said it would take at least half an hour, Fang Yang hung up the phone and talked to the old man about other things.

And the people in the live broadcast room couldn't help but start a heated discussion about the photo just now.

【Popularity】+1+1+1+1.

——【But I think the Third Princess is the tallest and has the most temperament; what do you think?】

——【The Third Princess looks a bit like the baby-faced TV star Ruby Lin.】

——【To the person above, your view is very similar to mine; I think so too.】

——【Your view directly represents me.】

——【6, it's really good-looking.】

——【No wonder the European and American impression is 'slanted eyes'; the Eight Banners they came into contact with all had small eyes, but the Han people's eyes are not small.】

——【To the person above, you misunderstood; 'slanted eyes' is a deliberate uglification by the West; what they uglified was all Chinese people, not any specific ethnic group.】

——【Isn't this caused by the Manchus? And they still have the face to talk?】

——【Look at the Terracotta Warriors; that's what the ancients looked like. The ancients' oval faces were called 'sharp-mouthed and monkey-cheeked'; the ancients liked square faces the most.】

——【This might be a north-south difference.】

——【Although the eyes of Chinese people are not big, they are very spirited.】

——【Compared to Europeans and Americans, they are all small.】

——【Puyi's father and sisters are all so beautiful, but Puyi is not.】

——【I want to know how these princesses lived after the Qing Dynasty perished.】

——【Changed their surnames and names and married randomly; anyway, they didn't dare to say they were Manchus.】

——【I'm already a bit face-blind; good heavens, are they sharing one face?】

——【The women of the Later Jin Manchus were ugly; Huang Taiji's seven incursions to grab money, people, and women accumulated a large amount of resources and improved the Manchus' looks.】

——【Over two hundred years of improvement, only the royal family, to show off, didn't dare to take Han concubines; look at the portraits in the Qing palace, none of them are good-looking; they are ugly to the point of being tragic.】

——【Indeed ugly, but the Qing royal family didn't refuse Han people; they only took from the Eight Banners. Including the Manchu Eight Banners, Mongol Eight Banners, and Han Eight Banners. Han concubines could reach the rank of Imperial Noble Consort, but could not be Empress.】

——【Used stolen money for plastic surgery, or bought a beauty phone.】

——【The princesses in their family all have one big eye and one small eye.】

——【They all inherited the eyes of the man in the middle.】

——【The Great Qing perished, and human history took another step forward.】

——【The Third Princess is indeed a cut above.】

——【With the improvement of photography technology, the photos taken have more texture. The old photos of the late Qing Dynasty that appeared in textbooks before, regardless of whether they were concubines or princesses, were ugly as hell; thinking about it then, it felt unlikely. Not to mention the appearance, the temperament of a wealthy family couldn't possibly be as wretched as those photos taken.】

——【Yes. Not to mention the main wife, just talk about the concubines; it's impossible to find ugly ones, so how could the children born be ugly?】

——【Yes, look at Wanrong and you'll know; looking at the footage, she was clearly beautiful, but some photos taken were extremely wretched.】

——【This was already the Republic of China, okay? Women in the Qing Dynasty were all hunched over; holding their heads high and chests out was considered indecent, and the makeup of the Republic of China was also more modern; the makeup of the Manchu Qing was like it was dug out of a coffin lid.】

——【Waiting for a long exposure without moving for a long time, no one's expression would be good.】

——【This one is the real one; stop uglifying history. I hate textbooks.】

——【The Sixth Princess's hairstyle is so good-looking! I like it.】

——【No beauty filters, no heavy makeup, already very beautiful!】

——【Born from which concubines, the daughters are all so beautiful; who said there are no beauties in the Qing court?】

——【They all look so beautiful, young ladies of noble families, sisters of famous clans.】

——【Most people's photos don't look as good as the person themselves, so it can be seen that these princesses are indeed not ugly.】

——【Seeing the photos, you will find that the aesthetics of that time were about the same as now.】

——【Where are all the descendants of these princesses?】

——【I found that many people in the past really had single eyelids.】

——【They are all quite good-looking, and they all look very quiet.】

——【The Third Princess has a face of national peace and security, while the Sixth Princess has a beautiful and bright face.】

——【Although they look very similar, there are still differences.】

——【Look at their father, and you know these children are indeed all his own.】

——【Puyi might not be; compared to his father and sisters, he is indeed a bit ugly.】

——【This 'Yun' character is very rare.】

——【There are plenty of good-looking commoners.】

——【How can you say they are all very good-looking? But in my opinion, I think they look quite ugly.】

——【Yes, actually I also think they look very average, far worse than some ordinary commoners.】

——【Except for the Third Princess being good-looking, the others are really not that good-looking; after all, they were taken with the original camera at the time.】

——【The hair of this period is really fashionable; it looks like I like it.】

——【This man is Zaifeng, the Prince Regent of the Great Qing.】

——【Zaifeng, the Prince Regent of the late Qing Dynasty, and his children, the father of the Xuantong Emperor Puyi.】

——【We must have checked the information when commenting; we all know it, right?】

This photo caused a lot of heated discussion.

They all looked very happy.

And Fang Yang looked up from time to time to look at the discussions in the live broadcast room.

With the words they discussed, time also moved forward second by second.

And afterwards, during this waiting time, under Fang Yang's slight earnest request, the old man had already taken out the negatives.

The negatives and the photos were placed together.

They were directly put into a box.

On the other side, the people from the Cultural Relics Bureau who said they would come in half an hour had already arrived at the place after just 20 minutes.

The harsh sound of the doorbell rang in their ears, and they quickly came in.

After they came in, they could no longer maintain a calm state.

"Fang Yang, I heard that you verified a photo here that is from the Qing Dynasty, and it's genuine, not fake."

"It is indeed real; you can take the photo to verify it, because this old gentleman has decided to hand this photo over to the museum."

When Fang Yang said this, his tone was exceptionally serious; he even pointed to another box on the table: "Inside there are the negatives from that time; the quantity is actually not small, you can find a way to develop the paper."

Looking at the old man's uneasy appearance, Fang Yang took the initiative to talk to them about this matter.
