"Let me tell you, the item you're carrying in your hands can easily be found in night markets, tourist attractions, wholesale markets, and the internet. What do you mean by 300,000 RMB? It's only worth 30 RMB at most, and if you were to purchase it, it would only cost you around 10 RMB …
"Don't think that my words are harsh, but I'm just telling you the truth. Unlike antiques like porcelain or ancient paintings, there's no upper limit to the price of an inkstone. It's not that there aren't any valuable inkstones in the world, but they're simply too rare. 200,000 RMB is already an astronomical sum for an inkstone …
"And yet, you actually spent 300,000 RMB on it? It's not that I want to criticize you, but how lacking of common sense do you have to be to do something like that? Could it be that you intentionally made up a fake to fool me, and now that I've seen through it, you're trying to blame me instead?
"Also, you said that I have an undeserved reputation? Of all the people here, there should be quite a few of you who have heard of me, right? I'm sure that there are quite a few of you who have come to me to appraise an inkstone, right? Miss Liang, you weren't doubting me with your words earlier but flaunting your ignorance!
"There's a saying that goes' ignorance isn't scary, what's scary is pretending to be ignorant '. In this aspect, Miss Liang, I advise you to learn from Miss Shi and learn to be humble and courteous …"
Faced with Uncle Ge's sharp tongue, Liang Mumu didn't even have a chance to speak.
In the end, her face turned pale and green under Uncle Ge's words, and it was hard to tell whether it was out of anger or speechlessness.
Having been watching the show by the side, Lin Jiage knew that the pit was almost filled up, so he finally spoke up, "Uncle Ge, I'm really sorry. I only came here to invite you to appraise an inkstone, but I didn't think that I would offend you instead."
"Forget it, forget it. There's no need for me to bicker with a junior. If there's nothing else for me here, I'll be returning to my seat to drink some wine. "Uncle Ge waved his hand and left.
But barely after taking two steps, Uncle Ge suddenly halted. "There's something that I know isn't the right time to say, but after some thought, I still decided to say it.
"It's not that I'm trying to stir up trouble, but the real Miss Shi hasn't said a word at all. On the other hand, the fake Miss Liang has been incessantly stirring up trouble before I appraise it …"
After saying those words, Uncle Ge turned around and walked away.
None of the people present were fools.
Earlier, perhaps some of them hadn't thought too much about it. But now that Uncle Ge had pointed it out, everyone thought about the cause and effect, and gradually came to their senses.
"It would have been better if Mister Ge didn't mention it. Now that you mention it, it's really scary …"
"Miss Liang is so young, but she is so scheming. She clearly wants to make the Lin family's granddaughter-in-law a joke."
"Unfortunately, she shot herself in the foot. In the end, she became the laughingstock."
Listening to the discussions around him, Old Master Lin's expression became a little displeased.
After all, he was the founder of Lin's Enterprise, and his aura was still there. Usually, he looked happy like a kind old man, but when he was serious, he was full of courage. "Huiling, you taught a good child!"
