    Because he was worried that the old lady had too much luggage, Meng Zitao took the company¡¯s business car to the old lady¡¯s house the next day.

    As soon as the car entered the village, Meng Zitao noticed that the atmosphere in the village seemed a bit lively today. Could it be that there was some happy event?

    When the car approached the old lady¡¯s house, Meng Zitao found that many people gathered in front of the old lady¡¯s house, and some of them were actually holding porcelain in their hands.

    Meng Zitao felt funny and speechless. Not surprisingly, his business card should have played a role, but why so many people came to him with items for appraisal? He was not here to participate in the treasure appraisal conference today.

    "Teacher Meng is here."

    "Ah, it's really Teacher Meng, exactly the same as on TV." Meng Zitao was speechless, aren't you talking nonsense?

    "Teacher Meng, please help me take a look at this piece of porcelain."

    "Teacher, please help me take a look"

    As soon as Meng Zitao got out of the car, people immediately gathered around him. Many people held up the things in their hands and wanted to ask Meng Zitao to identify the authenticity. The scene was extremely chaotic.

    "Quiet, everyone, be quiet!" Meng Zitao spoke loudly, and due to the use of his inner strength, everyone heard it, and the scene immediately became quiet.

    Meng Zitao hugged everyone and said, "Dear friends, thank you for your support. However, I don't understand what happened today. Can anyone explain it?"

    Everyone looked at each other in shock, and no one stood up to explain.

    "Where is the village chief? Is the village chief here?" Meng Zitao said.

    "Hello, Teacher Meng, I am the head of this village." An old man in his fifties squeezed out from the crowd.

    Meng Zitao went up and shook hands with him: "Hello, village chief, do you know what happened today? Don't worry, I'm not blaming everyone, I just think things are weird and I'm worried that someone might want to take the opportunity to cause trouble.  , if something happens, it¡¯s probably not what you want to see, right?¡±

    The village chief breathed a sigh of relief and said with embarrassment: "Teacher Meng, this is what happened. After you left yesterday, someone from our village went to ask Mrs. Li about the situation. They were also kind-hearted and worried that the old lady would be deceived.  Yes, I felt relieved later when I learned that it was you who came forward, and I praised you for your kindness. Yesterday, we had a treat in our village, and someone told me about it."

    ¡°At first it was nothing, everyone just complimented you, but then someone who drank too much cat urine actually said that you are here today to collect collectibles.¡±

    Meng Zitao didn¡¯t know whether to laugh or cry. He looked at the surrounding villagers looking at him helplessly. He was a little confused. It would definitely not be possible to send these people away, but if they were expropriated, he was worried that the situation would be out of control.

    ¡°Teacher Meng, what happened today is indeed abrupt, but it¡¯s rare that I meet you, so please help me take a look at our collection.¡± Someone couldn¡¯t help but say.

    "Yes, Teacher Meng, I spent hundreds of thousands to buy this collection. I have never been able to confirm its authenticity. I am so worried that I can't sleep at night. Please help me!"

    People at the scene said one thing to the left and the other to the right, all wanting to make Meng Zitao correct his mistakes.

    Meng Zitao actually knew that when things got to this point, if he drove people away, his reputation would definitely be affected, but if there were no regulations, it would definitely not work. After thinking about it, he thought of a way.

    Meng Zitao asked everyone to be quiet again and said to everyone: "Everyone must know by now that today's matter is actually a misunderstanding, but since everyone is here, I will also be responsible, but we have to make an agreement first. In addition to bringing these to the scene,  Friends who collect collections, even if others bring collections later, I will not touch them again. I hope everyone will inform their relatives and friends to avoid a wasted trip, okay?"

    Everyone said there was no problem, and some villagers learned that even if they went home to get it now, Meng Zitao would not know how to authenticate it, so they regretted it.

    There were also some people who wanted to take advantage of the gap, and Meng Zitao also thought of a countermeasure. He asked the village chief to help count the number of people. Everyone gave them a sheet with a number on it, and everyone identified them based on the number.

    Then, Meng Zitao asked the village chief to get two tables to place the collection during the appraisal.

    Before the appraisal, Meng Zitao said: "The village chief also said just now that there are rumors that I am here to collect the collection, but some people at the scene just want me to appraise it. Appraisal requires a fee. I believe everyone knows that, right?"

    ??Everyone expressed their knowledge one after another, and some said that they should let Meng Zitao set a standard, and they would not let Meng Zitao help them identify it in vain.

    Meng Zitao said with a smile: "We met today, which is considered destined, so I paid for the appraisal."I won¡¯t accept it, but everyone has to give me publicity.  My private museum in Ling City will be opened on May 18th, so please let your relatives and friends know.  Of course, it doesn't matter if you forget.  "

    The reason why Meng Zitao decided to open the museum on this day is actually very simple, because May 18th every year is World Museum Day.

    The crowd all expressed that they would definitely promote Meng Zitao. If they couldn't do such a small thing, they should go back as soon as possible to avoid embarrassment.

    The numbers are drawn randomly, and then lined up in order. Everyone thinks it is fair, so they line up in order and wait for their turn.

    During this period, everyone was busy discussing their own collections with people around them, paying attention to the previous appraisal results, and making some comments. It was quite lively.

    Meng Zitao¡¯s appraisal speed is very fast, but the results he gives are convincing to everyone. If the owner of the collection has problems, he can also comment on them properly, and the people at the scene admire him even more.

    Soon, the man arrived who said he spent hundreds of thousands to buy his collection. His collection was a plate with a red lychee pattern, and the inside and outside of the plate were painted with plain yellow lacquer and carved with vermilion lacquer patterns.  There are nine lychee patterns carved on the plate, with three large ones in the middle and six smaller ones around them.  The inner wall of the plate is carved with six intertwining flowers.  The outer wall has a curly grass pattern.  The bottom of the plate is decorated with ocher paint, and the three characters "Zhang Chengzao" in regular script can be vaguely seen on the left side.

    After Meng Zitao looked it over, he said, "Sir, I'm sorry, there is something wrong with this piece of lacquerware."

    "Ah! Why!" The man was a little panicked.

    Meng Zitao explained: "Distinguishing old and new lacquerware mainly depends on the workmanship. The craftsmanship of lacquerware is very particular. The works of each dynasty and each master are different. For example, the workmanship of lacquerware in the Qing Dynasty is more complicated, while the workmanship of lacquerware in the Ming Dynasty is very complicated."  It¡¯s relatively simple and clear.¡±

    "Although some people will decorate the patterns according to the past, you can tell the old and new just by smelling it. New lacquerware will still have a lacquer smell even if it has been stored for many years, while the smell of old lacquerware has already faded with age.  After distributing it, people used to use natural paint, but now they use chemical paint. You can smell it yourself." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
