Start with an antique shop and become rich overnight

Chapter 36 The phone shakes people
"So if it's been repaired well, that can be a reason for it to be problematic?"

Gu Shaoyu asked with a frown.

If this person could have mentioned other issues, he wouldn't have been so speechless.

Cao Xianpeng pretended to look at it for a while, then shook his head and sighed.

"I'm just reminding you. If you don't believe me, forget it. If there are any problems in the future, don't blame me for not telling you."

This statement seemed to have proven that Shen You had replaced the item with a fake one.

"Ms. Shen, what's going on?" Gu Yue's eyes were filled with questioning. "I hope you can give us a reasonable explanation."

"Sister!" Gu Shaoyu signaled with his eyes.

After all, he was asking for help and they were friends. Even if he had doubts, he could have asked in a different way. There was no need to do this.

Gu Yue ignored Gu Shaoyu and looked straight at Shen You, full of suspicion.

She felt she had been polite enough.

Shen You just looked at Cao Xianpeng calmly and said with a smile,

"Have you never seen the unearthed cultural relics on display in museums? They were originally in pieces, just a pile of black soil, but they can be restored."

Cao Xianpeng smiled disapprovingly.

"You also said it was a museum. The people who restored it are all masters. Have you heard of Professor Li Xinglin? He was in a documentary. I had dinner with his favorite student half a month ago."

How can she, a little girl, compare?
He said sarcastically, "I can't stand people who cheat. There are people who can appraise in the antique street ahead. Why don't I call someone to take a look?"

"I can't stand people who seek fame and reputation." Shen You responded with the same tone.
"Neither of us who got here by shaking our hands can be trusted. Let's go to the museum."

Cao Xianpeng seemed to have heard something funny.
"You went to the museum to ask someone to identify it? Are you so proud?"

I really don't know the height of the world.
He hasn't finished laughing yet.
Then Shen You turned the phone around and Professor Li's voice came from the voice call.

"Who said that if the restoration is so complete that no traces can be seen, then it is fake? According to what he said, how can the cultural relics I have restored become fake?"

"Nonsense! Why don't you ask him to use the same technique to make a fake one and try it out."

Professor Li was always so stubborn when it came to professional issues, but when he turned to what Shen You asked, his tone softened.

"Want to come to the museum? Okay, I'll find the curator for you, and we can appraise it together. The other party will be speechless.

It's just right. If you have time, come and see the crown in the restoration team."

Shen You thanked him, hung up the phone, and looked at Cao Xianpeng, who was sweating profusely.
"Do you have any other questions?"

With a master from the museum to authenticate it, who dares to say anything?

Cao Xianpeng couldn't figure it out. It felt like a dream. He had always wanted to meet this great man, but he couldn't even invite him to dinner.

I actually have a connection with this antique shop, which I've never even heard of.

He looked embarrassed and tried to smooth things over, "Mr. Li, that was too serious. I was saying it might not be right, but I didn't say it was definitely false."

It is impossible for such an old-fashioned man to say something final, but everyone could see what he meant just now.

He looked down on Shen You's qualifications and gender.

If someone with status in the circle came, he would definitely not say this.

Gu Yue's expression was a little unnatural at this moment.

Big shots of this level are usually low-key and simple, but their circle is high and ordinary people cannot enter.

Her family is always the one that takes the initiative to make friends in the circle.

If we go on like this today, there will be no problem in identifying the items. It will not only be Cao Xianpeng who is embarrassed, but also her.

"I sent a message to Brother Jia Yan before. He should be here soon. How about telling the boss at the Tibetan Museum?"

Gu Shaoyu looked at Shen You inquiringly.

"Okay." Shen You agreed. For Gu Shaoyu's sake, she didn't want to overdo it. Besides, since Xu Jiayan was here, she should tell them about this little thing.

Shen You called again. Professor Li was relieved to hear that Xu Jiayan was coming. She also told Professor Li that she would go over in the afternoon.

After all, she asked someone to help her save face, so it was her duty to go and do the work.

Not long after, Xu Jiayan arrived by car.

"It's a great restoration. No wonder Professor Li always talks about it. It's a pity you didn't agree to be a consultant to the museum."

He said with a smile, gently put down the hairpin, turned to Gu Yue, and looked serious.

"In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with the item. It is difficult to restore it using the same ancient techniques, but the value of the item itself can be guaranteed."

"Besides the restoration team in the museum, this is the only place I know of in Jiangcheng that has been restored to this level."

As soon as the news that Jiangcheng Tibetan Museum was restoring the lost skills came out, several Tibetan museums got in touch, including the imperial capital, which was also preparing to send people over to exchange and learn.

Gu Yue looked at Xu Jiayan and smiled, "I'm sorry for coming all the way here."

"fine."

"No wonder I didn't see it clearly. It turns out it is a restoration of ancient craftsmanship. I was too short-sighted." Cao Xianpeng found another way out for himself.

The owner of this store was able to invite even Professor Li. I don’t know where he came from, or if he has someone behind him.

We must quickly make up for what happened before.

"It's almost time for dinner, why don't I host and we can choose a place to have dinner together? It would be even better if Mr. Li is willing to come and show up."

Gu Shaoyu glanced at him and said, "We have already agreed that I will treat you to a meal after we are done. Don't compete with me for it."

"Professor Li has been busy lately and would rather eat in his studio. Maybe next time."

Xu Jiayan blocked Cao Xianpeng's words and said, "Let Shaoyu treat you this time."

Gu Yue responded, "That's settled."

Shen You had no objection since she had to go out in the afternoon anyway.

The restaurant is located in a high-end hotel about ten minutes away from the museum.

"Miss Shen, are you going to drive there yourself, or take Shaoyu's car?"

While Gu Yue was speaking, her eyes were looking at Gu Shaoyu's red Ferrari. Generally, girls like to ride in nice cars.

After sitting for a while, I have to take photos and post them on WeChat Moments.

"Or you can take my car?" Xu Jiayan said, "Anyway, after dinner, we're all going to the Tibetan Museum."

Shen You nodded and closed the store door. "That's fine. My car hasn't been fully charged yet."

In this way, several people got on the car one after another and went to the place to eat.

Gu Yue watched Xu Jiayan's car slowly turn around, reached out to hold Gu Shaoyu, and asked, "When did they meet?"

"How should I know? It's not easy for me to ask about other people's affairs." Gu Shaoyu opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat.

The meal was quite good. Cao Xianpeng's attitude towards Shen You changed 180 degrees. Gu Shaoyu had a very high EQ and saw that Shen You didn't like socializing, so he helped to block a lot of it.

Gu Yue was sitting on Xu Jiayan's left. The two were old acquaintances, so naturally they had something to talk about.

Not sure whether intentionally or unintentionally, Gu Yue looked towards Shen You several times.

"The last time we had dinner together was in the imperial capital. How is Grandpa Xu doing these days? I'll go visit him someday."

"The old man is fine."

Xu Jiayan's tone was humble and polite. Although he didn't say it, it was obvious that he came from a family with a good background.

Gu Yue's conversation with him also vaguely revealed this.
