Su Hui also looked at Qin Haodong, and there was worry on her smiling face. Everything was so perfect, but a fake was a fake after all, and it couldn't be compared with the real thing in any case.
"It's nothing. I just need to deal with it."
Qin Haodong took the written receipt and rolled it into a scroll. He filled his palm with Green Wood Genuine Qi and gently wiped it. When he opened it again, everything changed.
The Xuan paper, which was as white as snow just a moment ago, had become extremely dim, as if it had been eroded by countless years. The words and seals on the Xuan paper had also become dull, without any new marks. The entire scroll seemed to exude a simple and unadorned aura.
"It's done this time. What do you think, Mr. Qin?"
Qin Haodong said and put the receipt in front of Liu Qigong again.
At this time, Liu Qigong's face was dull, his lips were trembling, and his outstretched hands were also trembling. He took the scroll that Qin Haodong had just made in his hand and looked at the note in front of him. His eyes were filled with shock, extreme shock!
He was an authority in the Department of Archaeology and an expert in this field all over the country. The letter that had just been taken out of Wei Zhongxian's tomb was personally identified by him.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't find any flaws in the fake that Qin Haodong had just made. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have really thought that it was an antique that had been excavated from the tomb.
Qin Haodong didn't stay idle. When Liu Qigong was shocked, he made another letter from Koryo to the Ming Dynasty. The two things were more convincing when they were put together.
When he was done, Liu Qigong came back to his senses from the shock. Looking back at the handsome young man, he felt that his outlook on life had collapsed.
What kind of genius was he? He couldn't find any flaws in the antique that he made casually!
"Little Qin, how did you do it?"
Liu Qigong asked this somewhat naive question again.
Qin Haodong said with a smile, "Haven't you seen it? The handwriting is good, the carrot is good, and I've been selling fake antiques for several years. That's it. "
Liu Qigong couldn't help asking, "What the hell do you do? Aren't you a doctor? Why have you been doing everything for several years? "
"Being a doctor is my main job, and other things are my hobbies." Qin Haodong said with a smile, "Well, the old man is still waiting for us. We have to go back as soon as possible."
"Wait a minute, I'll go with you and have a look."
Liu Qigong followed them into the car. He was curious to see how Qin Haodong would play tricks on these Koryo people.
When the three of them reappeared in the auditorium of the Shanghai Medical College, the audience immediately became restless. Everyone's eyes fell on the two scrolls in Qin Haodong's hands.
Seeing that Qin Haodong was really holding something in his hand, Li Mintae immediately became nervous. Could it be that what this young man said was true? Did Koryo really give the Ming Dynasty an IOU? "Qin Haodong" s thought.
Li Joongki said in a low voice, "Father, I guess the thing in this kid's hand must be fake. Fortunately, we brought Mr. Choe Hong Seong, an antique appraisal expert. He will definitely see through this kid's trick."
Li Mintae nodded. In order to prove that his Compendium of Materia Medica was authentic at the cultural exchange meeting, he specially invited Choi Hongseong, an authoritative figure in antique appraisal in Koryo.
As soon as the father and son said this, Cui Hongcheng, who was sitting in the audience, stood up and quickly walked up to Qin Haodong. He said respectfully to the old man beside him, "Teacher, why are you here?"
When they got outside, Liu Qigong was still an expert. He nodded slightly and said, "It's okay. I just came to have a look."
It turned out that Choe Hongseong used to be a graduate student at Shanghai University and a student of Liu Qigong. Eighty percent of his antique appraisal skills were learned from him.
Li Joongseong said, "What's going on? How does Mr. Choe know that old man? "
Li Mintae said, "Don't worry about it. Mr. Choe Hongseong has always been known for his fairness. Even we can't affect the result of his appraisal."
Liu Qigong thought for a moment and said to Choe Hongseong, "Come with us. We may need your appraisal later."
He knew that Koryo would not easily believe Qin Haodong's words, so they would definitely appraise this IOU.
The four of them went on the stage together. Qin Haodong said to Li Mintae, "I've brought it."
Turning around, he said to Alice, "President Alice, please be a witness."
Su Hongbo and Fang Helun also looked at Qin Haodong's hand. They looked nervous, worried, and excited.
After that, he put the scroll in his hand on the table and slowly opened it. The cameraman who was doing the live broadcast next to him quickly turned the camera around, for fear of missing a single detail.
After unfolding the scroll, Qin Haodong said, "This is the letter from your country to the Ming Dynasty. Professor Li, with your research on the Compendium of Materia Medica, you should know these ancient Huaxia characters, right?"
Li Mintae looked at the scroll with a serious expression. He was indeed proficient in ancient Huaxia characters, so he soon understood the content. The general idea was that the medical skills of Koryo were backward. They begged the Ming Dynasty to lend them medical works such as the Compendium of Materia Medica to help the people of Koryo relieve their pain.
If this letter was true, it meant two things. First, Koryo was a dependent country of the Ming Dynasty. Second, they borrowed the Compendium of Materia Medica from Huaxia.
Qin Haodong opened the second scroll and said, "Look at it again. This is the IOU for borrowing the Compendium of Materia Medica."
Li Mintae looked over. It was indeed a IOU, indicating that Koryo had borrowed the Compendium of Materia Medica and other medical works of the Ming Dynasty.
"This … This can't be true!"
As a doctor, he knew very well who the Compendium of Materia Medica belonged to, but he was sure that Huaxia would not leave any relevant evidence. There was no way to prove that the Compendium of Materia Medica came from Huaxia. He never dreamed that this young man would make an IOU.
Qin Haodong said unhurriedly, "Professor Li, didn't you bring an expert here? You can ask him to identify it. "
Li Mintae turned to look at Choi Hongseong and said, "Mr. Choi, this thing must be fake. Please identify it."
Choi Hongseong said, "I can identify antiques, but I'm only responsible for the identification. I won't participate in your debate. And before I give you the result, please don't jump to conclusions. "
Li Mintae smiled awkwardly. This stubborn guy didn't save him any face in front of so many people.
"Mr. Choi, you're right. Whether it's true or not, it depends on your identification results."
Choi Hongseong nodded and turned to Liu Qigong and said, "Teacher, why don't you come with me?"
Liu Qigong shook his head and said, "This is a Huaxia thing, and it's also my collection. It's not convenient for me to identify it. It's better for you to do it."
"Teacher, your character is my role model. I've been working hard to learn from you all these years."
Then Choi Hongseong took out the white gloves, magnifying glass and other tools he carried with him and began to identify it.
Liu Qigong had a good reputation in the field of antique identification. He was fair and did not show favoritism. Choi Hongseong had inherited this quality in Koryo. He was meticulous in the identification of antiques and would not let any reason affect his conclusion.
Even if it was Liu Qigong's collection, if he thought it was fake, he would point it out in public without any hesitation.
He came to the two scrolls and began to look at them carefully. When he saw the handwriting on the scrolls, he immediately exclaimed, "My God, this is the authentic work of Mr. Pu Daegun."
Li Mintae had a bad feeling and asked, "Mr. Choi, are you sure?"
"Of course I'm sure." Choi Hongseong said solemnly, "Mr. Pu Daegun is a master of calligraphy in our country. I've taken him as my idol since I was a child. I've studied his calligraphy for many years.
"His calligraphy is not only strong and powerful, but also light and elegant. It's very spiritual and unique. I believe that no one else in the world can write this kind of calligraphy."
"There is a painting of Mr. Pu Daegun hanging in my room, which is exactly the same as the words on it. I'm sure that this is definitely the authentic work of Mr. Pu Daegun. No one else can copy it."
"Cough … Cough … Cough …"
Liu Qigong coughed violently and almost choked to death by his own saliva.
If his students knew that Qin Haodong had only spent a few minutes to write this piece of calligraphy, what would they think?
Choi Hongseong turned to look at him and asked, "Teacher, is there anything wrong with what I said?"
"Yes! Yes! Yes! You're right. I've just caught a cold these days and coughed a little. "
Although Liu Qigong was a fair person, the Compendium of Materia Medica originally belonged to Huaxia. Of course, he would not be so stubborn. Otherwise, he would not have followed them.
After getting his teacher's affirmation, Choi Hongseong was excited and continued to identify it. When he saw the seal below, he exclaimed again, "This is the national seal of Koryo. In ancient times, only very important documents were used. I can guarantee with my head that this is absolutely authentic."
"Cough … Cough … Cough …"
Liu Qigong coughed violently again. His disciple really dared to say anything. He even put his head on the seal that was dug out by a big radish.
This time, even Su Hui, who had always been quiet, showed a smile on her face. If it weren't for the fact that her grandfather couldn't identify it, she would really think that the antique appraisal expert of Koryo was a fake.
But now it seemed that it was obviously not true. It could only show that Qin Haodong's technique was so brilliant that it was almost to the realm of passing off the fake as the real one. He used a radish to deceive the two experts of Huaxia and Koryo.
Of course, Choi Hongseong didn't know this. He turned his head and said, "Teacher, I know you are very dedicated, but you must pay more attention to your health!"
"I will!"
Liu Qigong covered his mouth and said.
Choi Hongseong turned around and carefully identified the two scrolls again. After a full 10 minutes, he raised his head and said, "My appraisal results are out."
