The Elder Dong nodded his head: "That's right, this Boss Yu does not seem to be able to prove that this bead was not made from the remains of the High Monk Dade, then we will use the elimination method to prove that, firstly, this bead is over a hundred years old, that is unquestionable, secondly, the history of forging Gabala Beads is at most a dozen years, before that, no one would use the bones of those who are not High Monk Dade's remains to create the Gabala, this indirectly proves that this bead is the true holy object, the prayer bead of the Buddha!"

After listening to Elder Dong's explanation and proof process, the young people and Chiang Renyong who were accompanying him couldn't help but clap their hands.

However, Silang and Chen Xi were not moved, because the Elder Dong's proof process was not strict.

"That's right, the history of wantonly forging Gabala s is more than ten years, but Elder Dong, please remember, I am talking about wanton, the imitation or forgery of Gabala s, it has only started to rise ten years ago, and the entire industry chain has become more mature, but long before that, someone used a similar method to forge Gabala's rosary beads. Why, because the real Gabala's rosary beads are very rare! That is to say, in the ancient times, counterfeiting Gabala's prayer beads were also profitable. Since you have a profit, why do you say that no one is going into this business? It was just that at that time, the market demand was much less than it is now, and the amount of people who forged Gabala s correspondingly decreased as well. For example, imitation of Buddhist statues and paintings of the Tang and Song dynasties is a common occurrence in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and is even more prevalent in the modern era. You can't say that Wu Daozi's imitation paintings were real, and you can't say that people in the Ming dynasties couldn't copy or understand the value of Wu Daozi's works, right? " Yu Jingyan said seriously.

In comparison, Yu Jingyan's argument was much more rigorous.

After being questioned by Yu Jingyan, Elder Dong's face reddened a little, but he was not willing to give up, and continued to speak: "Boss Yu, what you said is reasonable, but the question now is, with regards to this hundred-year old human bone prayer bead, how can you prove that its raw materials are not the High Monk's remains? Although I am unable to prove that the creation of this rosary pearl definitely conforms to etiquette, you are also unable to prove that it does not conform to etiquette, unless you can find the person who produced this rosary bead a hundred years ago. Of course, this is impossible, no one can live that long. "

Yu Jingyan knew that this Expert Dong's knowledge was limited to ordinary people.

"The Gabala's prayer beads are buddhist treasures and possess a powerful divine power, right?" Yu Jingyan asked.

The Elder Dong nodded his head: "That's right, the Gabala's prayer beads are made from the remains of a great monk who has already successfully reported his cultivation. They are naturally treasures with unparalleled divine power."

Yu Jingyan smiled slightly: "Then tell me, from this string of prayer beads, have you ever felt the tiniest bit of divine power?"

Elder Dong would never have thought that Yu Jingyan would raise such an idealistic question when he was seriously discussing a materialistic topic with him …

Elder Dong was not a warlock, he was just an expert with knowledge on antiques. How could he sense the mysterious power on this string of prayer beads?

"You, this question of yours, it's a feudal superstition, it's a bullshit question!" Elder Dong said anxiously.

This is science. Perhaps the science that I am talking about might be a little different from the scientific knowledge system that you all have now, but I can be responsible and tell you all this, this string of prayer beads is filled with evil Qi, and does not have any of the divine powers that the secret sect's treasures should have. Elder Dong, your eyes are not bad, but it is only limited to the human body.

Elder Dong was stunned. At this time, he suddenly remembered that his teacher had said the same thing to him back then …

The Elder Dong was a disciple of the Great Cang Master, Wang Shixiang. As the most talented appraiser of cultural relics in modern times, there was no doubt about his abilities, and the Elder Dong was the grand disciple of the late Mr. Wang.

"Little Dong, you already have a considerable amount of knowledge on the appreciation of cultural relics. Unfortunately, although your eyes are not bad, they are only limited to the human body. Your grand-teacher, Mr. Wang Shixiang, is right. This was the teachings of Elder Dong's mentor from all those years ago.

"Wu Yu, Mr Yu, who exactly are you?" Elder Dong's tone was filled with respect. In these past few years, he had dominated the world of artifacts. In this field, there were very few people who were worthy for him to use such a tone to speak with.

The young men who accompanied them did not expect that the usually arrogant Elder Dong would call the wretched man in front of them "Mister."

"It doesn't matter who I am. Elder Dong, seems like you understand what I mean. " Yu Jingyan's face revealed an unfathomable smile.

Of course, Yu Jingyan also didn't understand the obvious change in Elder Dong's attitude after he had casually said those words.

Elder Dong nodded his head as his master's teachings echoed in his ears. To look at things, one must not only look at them with their eyes, but also with their heart. It was a pity that although he inherited his teacher's vision, he did not inherit his teacher's or his master's ability to appraise treasures.

"Mr Yu, thank you for your reminder. In all these years, you are the first person who reminds me of my master. Your knowledge is at least on the same level as my master's." The Elder Dong said respectfully.

"What?" Being at the same level as the master of the Elder Dong, isn't that the level of Mr. Wang Shixiang's first disciple? " The young men beside him were whispering to each other with faces full of shock.

Chiang Renyong heard it in the clouds, but he could understand that the Elder Dong admitted that he was not as good as Yu Jingyan …

"It can't be, could it be that Elder Dong was someone Yu Jingyan invited over to do this to me, causing me to think that there really is a problem with this string of prayer beads?" Chiang Renyong thought.

Yu Jingyan returned the greeting with his fists, knowing that Elder Dong had already realized his mistake.

"Elder Dong, there are no limits to your studies. I hope that you can improve at the fastest speed possible. The country needs professionals like you." Yu Jingyan said.

Elder Dong shook his head in shame and said softly: "I do not deserve to be called that. You are the professional."

Yu Jingyan: "My knowledge is very narrow, and I will only read some old items that were passed down in my collection. You are different now, you are more experienced than me in the various ancient arts and arts and you are more experienced than me."

The two of them flattered each other for being modest, and only then did the young people who were accompanying them have a whole new level of respect for Yu Jingyan. Silang also had a face full of pride, his head held high and chest puffed up, as if to say, "Hey, young man, your boss is not as good as my Brother Yu."

Taking advantage of this, Chiang Renyong took out his cell phone and started searching online. When he saw Elder Dong, who was one of the experts in the program team of《 Exhibit Appraisal》, he confirmed that the Elder Dong in front of him was indeed an expert in Central TV's program team. He was the grandstudent of the renowned great Hidden King Wang Shixiang.

"Looks like what Yu Jingyan said was right, the Gabala that I spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to collect, is really blind work …" Chiang Renyong couldn't help but want to cry, but had no tears to shed.

The Elder Dong chatted with Yu Jingyan for a while before saying: "Mr Yu, it's really my fortune to be able to meet an expert like you. I have a lot of things to do in the past few days, I have to bring these three doctoral students to continue their research and let them come into contact with some valuable cultural relics.

Yu Jingyan: "Elder Dong does not need to be courteous, the one who should be the host is me, you are old and knowledgeable, after you finish working, I will ask you for your knowledge about the bronze mirror of the Tang Dynasty."

After another round of pleasantries, Elder Dong and Yu Jingyan exchanged methods of communication before leaving with the three youths.

"Elder Dong Master, why would you suddenly believe what Yu Jingyan said?" Just as they walked out of Chiang Renyong's shop, one of the young men asked softly.

The Elder Dong sighed and said," There is a unique temperament about him. I have once felt that from my master and teacher, this kind of temperament is the temperament of a true collector. His teacher once told me that one cannot just look at things with their eyes, one must also look at them with their heart. I am certain that Yu Jingyan is not like us, who have the ability to see through things with our own hearts. These words may sound a little mysterious to you two, but when you come in contact with a lot of ancient items and have a rich amount of experience in appraisal, you will understand the meaning of my words today. Sigh, there is no end to my knowledge, I hope that the things I say to you two will be able to bring you benefits.

The three accomplished PhD students looked at each other. With their experience and experience, they still could not understand the conversation between Yu Jingyan and Elder Dong.

"Brother Yu, are you really doing this blindly?" Chiang Renyong said with a sullen face.

Yu Jingyan: "Like I said, this is not considered blind work because it is indeed more than a hundred years old and it is indeed made using human bones. However, this is not a Gabala because the making materials are different from the true Gabala. It can only be said to be a string of hundred-year-old human bone rosary beads, with a few expensive matching beads. "

Chiang Renyong nodded his head, according to Yu Jingyan's explanation, the beads he bought at a high price were not blind work.

"However, probably only a few people would know that this isn't a Gabala, it's just a human bone rosary. I believe that changing hands would sell for quite a bit of money." Thinking about it, Chiang Renyong couldn't help but smile.

"Old Jiang, like I said, this thing doesn't work blindly, but you can't hold it." Yu Jingyan said.

Chiang Renyong's smile froze, and he asked: "Brother Yu, what does that mean? I can't hold onto it, and you want me to gift it to you?"

Yu Jingyan: "Take off the beads on the prayer beads and sell them. You can roughly calculate how much you can sell them for."

Chiang Renyong took out the ruler to accurately measure the size of the bead, and estimated: "These beads, cards and counters can probably be sold for around two hundred thousand."

Yu Jingyan: "Alright, remove the bead. If that's the case, it's equivalent to giving two hundred and fifty thousand to your prayer beads, right?"

Chiang Renyong nodded, then continued to speak: "I'll give you two hundred and fifty thousand, give me this string of prayer beads, okay?"

"Um, Brother Yu, if I were to sell the prayer beads, I would be able to sell it for at least five to six hundred thousand gold coins. Chiang Renyong said hesitantly.

Yu Jingyan's face became gloomy, after looking at the time, he said: Old Jiang, close the door, I have something to tell you.

Chiang Renyong was full of fear for Yu Jingyan. Although he was unwilling, he still closed the shop door obediently, and put out the sign of "Resting".

"Boss Jiang, even now, you think that I've come to find you because I'm deceiving you with these rosary beads?" Yu Jingyan said with a straight face, thinking that this Chiang Renyong was truly a person who would not cry even if he saw the coffin.

"That's not what I meant. Brother Yu, I just feel that this thing can make money, if I give it to you as a guarantee, it would be a bit hard to accept." Chiang Renyong said.

Yu Jingyan: "Let me tell you honestly, the rumors that my colleagues in the industry are talking about me are true. I have some abilities that you all find hard to understand, and the origin of this string of prayer beads is not clear. If you keep it, sooner or later something will happen to it. To put it bluntly, if you can't suppress the filth hidden inside the prayer beads, if you really don't want to give it to me, then so be it. If something happens again, don't ask me for help! Lao Chen, Silang, let's go, Boss Jiang, farewell. I really want to see how long your misfortune can last! "
