Qin Haodong had already read through the Compendium of Materia Medica in front of him. There was rich Spiritual Qi on it. Even if it was not the original copy of the Compendium of Materia Medica, it was from the era of the Ming Dynasty.
However, for some reason, it ended up in Koryo and finally fell into the hands of Li Mintae. It was no different from a hooligan who took other people's things and said it was his own.
But he had traveled in the Cultivation World for 500 years. He had seen all kinds of things and what kind of hooligans had he not met. He could be reasonable, but he had a hundred ways to deal with Emperor Green Wood's hooliganism.
He signaled Su Hongbo with his eyes not to be nervous, and then said to Li Mintae, "This is indeed the original copy of the Compendium of Materia Medica, but it belongs to Huaxia and has nothing to do with your country."
Li Joongki had just been fooled by him, and now he finally seized the opportunity to take revenge. He shouted, "It's in our hands. Why do you say it belongs to you?"
Qin Haodong said, "Because you borrowed it from Huaxia."
"Hahahaha!" Li Joongki laughed arrogantly and said, "Borrowed it? Why don't you say that we stole it?"
Su Hongbo and Zhang Helun also showed puzzled expressions. They didn't know what Qin Haodong was going to do. It was obvious that these people had come to play hooligans. How could they admit that they had borrowed it?
All the audience present fixed their eyes on the handsome young man's face, waiting to see how he would give an answer.
"There's no evidence for stealing, but there's an IOU for borrowing." Qin Haodong said, "Just last night, I saw the IOU for borrowing this Compendium of Materia Medica from the Great Ming Dynasty."
As soon as he said this, the audience immediately became restless.
"Really? Was this book really borrowed from Huaxia?"
"Since the Medical Sage said it, he should have his reasons. I choose to believe him!"
"These people are so hateful. They obviously borrowed it from us, but they said it was their own. They didn't expect that Huaxia still has an IOU, did they?"
Li Joongki's expression changed greatly and he shouted, "That's impossible. How can there be an IOU for something hundreds of years?"
Qin Haodong sneered and said, "The things you borrowed have been intact for hundreds of years. Are you allowed to borrow things without returning them? Are we not allowed to keep the IOUs?"
Li Joongki still wanted to say something, but he was stopped by Li Mintae. He turned to look at Qin Haodong and asked solemnly, "You said you saw the IOU of the Compendium of Materia Medica?"
Qin Haodong said, "Of course. Not only is there an IOU from the Compendium of Materia Medica, but there is also a letter from Koryo to Huaxia, begging the Celestial Empire of Huaxia to help your small states and relieve the pain of your people."
Hearing the sarcasm in Qin Haodong's words, Lee Mintae's expression changed drastically. "That's impossible. Show me the evidence."
"Of course there is evidence. Su Hui's grandfather is an archaeology professor in the Department of History of Shanghai University. I saw this IOU from him." Qin Haodong stared at him with burning eyes and said, "If I take out the receipt, should you return what you borrowed?"
After he finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on Lee Mintae's face, and thousands of spectators immediately shouted excitedly, "Return it! Return it!"
Facing such strong pressure of public opinion and the camera in front of him, Lee Mintae finally felt a little embarrassed. He said, "If you can take out the IOU, we will naturally return it, but your IOU must be examined by Mr. Choi Hongseong to confirm that it is real."
The reason why he said this was that, on the one hand, he was under the pressure of public opinion. On the other hand, he did not believe that Qin Haodong could really take out the IOU.
"Well, wait a moment. We'll be back soon."
Qin Haodong took Su Hui's hand and left the venue. Therefore, because of the IOU, the exchange meeting was suspended. However, no one left. They were all looking forward to when Qin Haodong could get back the IOU of the Compendium of Materia Medica.
After going out of the door, Su Hui took Qin Haodong's hand and asked, "When did you see the IOU in my grandfather's house? Why didn't I see it?"
Qin Haodong said with a smile, "There's no such thing. I didn't see it anywhere."
"How can this be?" Su Hui said nervously, "Do you know that it was broadcast live in front of all the people in Huaxia? Even Koryo was broadcasting it.
"What if you can't take out the IOU? Are you going to admit that the Compendium of Materia Medica is theirs? Li Shizhen is theirs? Traditional Chinese medicine is theirs?"
Qin Haodong pulled Su Hui into the car. The original Mercedes-Benz SUV had been destroyed by the explosion. This was a new car chosen from the Zheng family, a top-grade Land Rover.
As he drove, he said, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal. If you don't have an IOU, just make one.
These people obviously came to our territory to play hooligans. Since they are hooligans, we should be more hooligans than them. "
Su Hui said anxiously, "But the IOU they want is an antique. How can it be so easy to make? Even if you can imitate it, they have antique appraisal experts over there. It's easy to recognize it."
Qin Haodong said with a smile, "Don't worry. I can still do such a small thing. I'm sure they won't find out."
"But …"
Su Hui was still a little worried. Qin Haodong said, "Don't say 'but' now. Do you have a better way?"
"No …"
Su Hui didn't say anything. She thought of the scene just now. If Qin Haodong hadn't used this method, he wouldn't have been able to deal with Li Mintae's provocation.
"Since there's no other way, trust me. I won't let you down."
Liu Qigong's home was not far from the Shanghai Medical College. With Qin Haodong's proficient driving skills, they arrived at his home in less than five minutes.
After they entered the house, Liu Qigong happened to be resting at home. He was practicing calligraphy in the study. When he saw the two of them, he said, "Isn't today the day of the cultural exchange meeting? Why are you two here?"
Qin Haodong briefly told him what had happened and then said, "Mr. Liu, lend me your pen and ink. I'll make an IOU."
Turning around, he said to Su Hui, "Go find a carrot, then turn on the computer and find the picture of yesterday's letter of credence. I'll see what the seal of the king of Koryo looks like and then make one according to it."
At this point, Su Hui could only cooperate unconditionally. She rushed into the kitchen and grabbed a big carrot from Zhu Dongmei's hand, which was about to be cut.
After hearing what he said, Liu Qigong opened his mouth wide for a long time. When he saw Qin Haodong spread out the paper, he came to his senses and said, "You kid, you're making trouble. Antiques are historical. How can they be forged so easily?
"Apart from other things, all the credence letters of that period were written by Pu Daegeun. His handwriting is unique. Can you learn it?"
As he spoke, he anxiously paced back and forth on the ground. "How about this? After all, this old man has been immersed in calligraphy for 40 to 50 years. I can barely learn Pu Daegeun's calligraphy. I'll write this note for you. Whether you can get away with it or not will depend on your luck!"
But when he turned around, he suddenly stood there in a daze, as if he had been frozen.
He saw Qin Haodong put the brush in his hand aside, and a piece of calligraphy had been written. Although the ink on the paper was not dry, each of the words was vigorous and vigorous. The most important thing was that it was exactly the same as what Pu Daegeun had written.
If there were no one else in the room, he would have thought that Pu Daegeun had been reborn.
Qin Haodong pointed to the receipt that had just been written on the table and said, "Sir, what do you think of my handwriting?"
"That's great! That's great! It's so good! It's so fake! No, no! It can't be called fake at all! It's exactly the same as what Pu Dagen wrote!"
Liu Qigong looked at the words in front of him and asked in amazement, "Little Qin, how did you do it?"
Qin Haodong said with a smile, "It's nothing. I've sold calligraphy and paintings of scholars for a few years. When I'm free, I'll write one."
"Amazing, you're really amazing!"
Liu Qigong looked at this piece of calligraphy and was amazed. He had been immersed in calligraphy for decades, but he could never reach Qin Haodong's level. He was far from it.
Not only him, but probably no one in Huaxia could imitate Pu Daegeun's handwriting to this extent. The most important thing was that it only took Qin Haodong one or two minutes to do it.
"Here comes the radish!"
At this time, Su Hui came in with a big red radish.
Qin Haodong took the radish and raised his hand to pick up the fruit knife next to him. He glanced at the photo of the letter of credence on the computer screen and turned his wrist. The fruit knife flew up and down, and it took him less than a minute to carve a seal.
He took the big seal carved by the radish, dipped it on the stamp table next to him, and then printed it on the lower corner of the receipt.
"It's done!"
Liu Qigong craned his neck to take a look and was once again dumbfounded.
He was an expert in archaeology and had amazing eyesight. If he hadn't seen the big seal carved by Qin Haodong with the radish, he would have thought that it was the seal of the Koryo Nation.
He was unwilling to give up, so he took the magnifying glass next to him. The result was still the same. Except that the ink was not dry, he couldn't find any flaws.
He felt that he was about to collapse. He asked with a stiff expression, "Little Qin, how did you do it?"
Qin Haodong said with a smile, "It's nothing. I learned cooking for a few years in my spare time. I'm good at carving."
Su Hui also sighed and said, "I'm really curious. Is there anything you can't do?"
"Yes." Qin Haodong said thoughtfully, "It seems that I can't do things like giving birth."
Su Hui glared at him coquettishly and said, "You're not serious."
Liu Qigong came to his senses and said, "Little Qin, although your calligraphy is flawless and the seal is perfect, it's fake after all.
