Hong Daidai was puzzled. The Yongzhou Cauldron was obviously in their Thirteen Tianfang Cities, under the noses of everyone in the Hong family, so why was it suddenly replaced?
Hong Aotian on the side could not accept this result, because once the Yongzhou tripod was fake, they would not be able to trade normally with Meng Huailang.
If the transaction cannot be completed, what will happen to the money he owes?
Hong Aotian was so anxious that he asked, "You say this Yongzhou Cauldron is fake. Then show us the evidence. Don't just yell and make alarmist statements. Let me tell you, I won't listen to what you are saying!"
Seeing that Hong Aotian didn't believe it, the elder in charge of the appraisal just now said angrily:
"I know these things best, can I still make mistakes in my appraisal? Hong Aotian, you have to believe that something went wrong this time!"
"You said there was a problem, then something went wrong? I don't believe it, I want to see the evidence!" Hong Aotian didn't want to believe it even to death.
He is just waiting for the money to help him pay off his debts. He can't let the duck fly away now.
"Ancient bronzes have been buried underground for a long time. Due to the influence of the underground environment, they have been corroded to varying degrees. Since each bronze is in a different environment and has experienced different conditions, the corrosion situation and degree are also different. . The first layer of ancient bronzes unearthed is green rust, or it may be green or black."
The elder began to explain to several people.
But Hong Aotian obviously didn't have the patience. He waved his hand and said unhappily: "That's enough, don't tell me this. I knew this when I was young. You have the guts to give me the decisive answer!"
Otherwise, he would not believe that this Yongzhou tripod is fake!
He just wants to believe it, and he just wants to give this tripod away for trade!
Seeing Hong Aotian's appearance of never looking back until he hit the south wall, the elder could only sigh:
"Real black, ancient black, has an active color quality. This black is easy to wipe off. Some green rust also has blue rust underneath, commonly known as peacock blue; the second layer is red rust; the third layer It is gold or silver, and often contains lead. Some do not have this layer; the fourth layer is the real bronze material. It may only have three layers. The appearance of any genuine artifact is formed by a sense of layering. It has a very old leather shell, and the surface has the characteristics of atrophy, orange peel, etc. Even high-end imitations are difficult to achieve this level.”
After listening to the elder's explanation, others also came over to check.
Indeed, the cauldron in front of us has been done very well, and even at this level it is close to the truth.
But what’s fake is fake. As long as you look carefully, you’ll still find something wrong with the layering.
"The sense of layering that has accumulated over the years is definitely not like this. If you look carefully at this color, can you tell that it is left over for many years? It is obviously new...and there was no response after reading so many words just now. This Yongzhou Ding It’s already fake.”
Listening to the elder's explanation, even if Hong Aotian was unwilling to accept it, he had to lower his head and accept his fate and believe what he said.
But Hong Aotian is still confused, why is this the result?
Why was this Yongzhou Ding stolen and handed over?
"Who is watching the Yongzhou Ding! How could our baby be swapped!" Hong Aotian asked angrily.
Even Hong Daidai was a little angry. She stared at Hongxiu and asked, "Hongxiu, as the head of the family, shouldn't you give an explanation?"
"People always make mistakes. And you have been in charge of Yongzhou Ding during this period. I didn't interfere." Hongxiu looked at Hong Daidai.
When she decided to let Ye Xingtong take away the Yongzhou Cauldron, she deliberately asked Hong Daidai and others to keep an eye on the cauldron.
It was Hong Daidai and the others who underestimated the enemy, and it was they who wanted to take others with them to see what happened to Luo Jiuling.
Can they be blamed for this?
Can not do it now.
Hong Daidai choked, thinking of Hongxiu's previous arrangements, and always felt uneasy.
Her intuition told her that this was a plan against them from the beginning to the end. She told them deliberately and let them fall into the trap.
But now that Yongzhou Ding has been switched, and all of them have no evidence, they can only bow their heads and admit defeat.
"Okay, it's useless to pursue this now. Hong Xiu, please tell me quickly how we should find the Yongzhou Ding! The things of our Hong family are related to the Thirteen Cities of Tianfang. I think they must not be left outside for outsiders to use. Come to do bad things!" Hong Daidai said quickly.
No matter what, let Hongxiu and the others find the real Yongzhou Cauldron first.
If Meng Huailang was unwilling to wait, they would have no choice but to refund the money first and then sell it after finding it themselves.
Hong Xiu rubbed her temples and looked like she had a headache. She sighed and said, "Is it true that God wants our Hong family and the thirteen cities in Tianfang to suffer such a disaster?"
Hong Daidai: "..." Damn it, look at Hongxiu actually learning to use this trick.
How could she not be angry?
But getting angry won't help. If you want to make things happen nowadays, you have to keep your head down and do a lot.
"Yes, is it true that God has a problem with our Thirteen Cities in Tianfang and deliberately caused trouble in our family to alert everyone?"
"Don't talk nonsense. I think someone did it deliberately. It's not the problem of our Thirteen Cities. You can't mess around and do it yourself."
"Yeah, I don't think you should scare yourself. There is always a way to solve this problem. Let's all think about it and see what we can do."
"I don't know what to say. Just listen to Hongxiu. This is our head of the family. Let her make an idea."
Hong Xiu thought to herself, just now you just asked me to sacrifice Hong Song'an for the Thirteen Cities of Tianfang, but now the direction of the wind has changed really fast.
But it was because of them that she could test who wanted to harm Hong Songan.
Then, he saw Hongxiu and said, "Anyway, the Yongzhou Ding is the treasure of my Hong family. The Thirteen Cities of Tianfang cannot lose this treasure. We must investigate first."
Hong Daidai nodded, "Yes, we should first find out where our tripod went."
"Everyone is not allowed to leave the Hong family's manor today. After I figure out how to find this person, I will ask everyone to cooperate." Hong Xiu glanced at everyone.
Some sensitive elders were unhappy.
"Hongxiu, what do you mean by this? Do you think our Hong family has a thief? We are guarding ourselves and stealing?"
"Don't doubt your family. Be careful if you make your family feel cold. No one will support you or be willing to help you anymore."
"I think we should tell everyone in the Thirteen Cities of Tianfang this news and ask them to come forward and help us find Ding."
Hongxiu glanced at the elder who made the suggestion, and said with a cold look: "Do you think the people in the Thirteen Cities of Tianfang are of the same mind as us?"
