1053 What Makes You Think That This Painting Is Pieced Together?
Hearing that Ye Feng wanted to use a microscope, everyone felt that it was unbelievable.
“Haha, does he think that he can see the stitching marks with a microscope even though he can’t see them with a magnifying glass?”
“This is the first time I’ve heard that a microscope is needed to appraise a painting.”
“Then I want to ask, since the stitching marks can only be seen with a microscope, how did you see it?”
“Didn’t he just say that we are all mortal bodies? He has the Fiery Eyes, which is much stronger than a microscope.”
“Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter…”
Pang Daqian laughed so hard that he was out of breath. “This is the first time I’ve heard such a strange request. Old Chen, tell me the truth. Did you hire him to tease us? This is too funny.”
Chen Qiushan was also embarrassed. This request was really strange. It was the first time he had heard it.
Chen Xuan, who had been sitting quietly at the side, suddenly said coldly, “What’s so funny? Since you want Ye Feng to give you evidence, you should fulfill any request he has. If you can’t afford it, get lost.”
It had to be said that the aura of a king on her body was getting stronger and stronger. As soon as she said this, it immediately shocked the group of men present.
The private room immediately fell silent.
Chen Qiushan hurriedly said, “Yes, yes, yes. Our goal is to find out if this painting is a fake.”
“Since Brother Ye actually made such a request, we should naturally fulfill it. I’ll call someone to send the microscope over now.”
After saying that, he immediately called his friend.
The others naturally did not say anything, but they all had a mocking expression on their faces, waiting to see Ye Feng make a fool of himself.
The microscope was soon delivered, and a young man wearing glasses came over at the same time.
Chen Qiushan immediately introduced him to everyone. “This is a young talent from the Archeology Department of Yang Cheng University, Dr. Xu Qingfeng.”
Xu Qingfeng waved his hand modestly. “What talent? I’m just a student. I’m still far from professional.”
His humble appearance was a stark contrast to Ye Feng’s arrogance.
The few appraisers present immediately had a good impression of him.
Look at him. He was so young, and he was even a doctor, but he could still be so humble.
On the other hand, some people did not have much strength, but they had quite a temper.
Chen Qiushan explained the controversy to Xu Qingfeng. “Mr. Ye said that this painting is too high-tech and might need a microscope.”
When Xu Qingfeng heard this, he looked at Ye Feng a few more times. He seemed to be very interested in him.
At the same time, he also noticed that when Chen Qiushan mentioned the term ‘microscope’, the other appraisers all showed disdainful expressions.
Although the Archaeology Department and the antique world did not have much interaction, there were still similarities in their research.
In fact, many scientific equipment could already assist in the identification.
However, many older appraisers were still very resistant to these modern instruments. They felt that their experience and judgment were the most reliable.
It was rare for a young appraiser to think of using a microscope to assist in the appraisal.
It seemed that young people were more accepting of new things.
He had misunderstood this point. Actually, Ye Feng did not use a microscope to do the test. He used the system.
The reason why he used a microscope was just to slap these stubborn old men in the face.
“Qingfeng, help me appraise this painting and see if there are any signs of stitching.” After Chen Qiushan explained the situation, he entrusted the appraisal to Xu Qingfeng.
“Alright.”
Xu Qingfeng nodded and adjusted the microscope before taking the painting and starting the appraisal.
Pang Daqian and the few appraisers sneered at Ye Feng.
Although they didn’t say anything, they were obviously waiting to see him make a fool of himself.
Chen Xuan and Chen Qiushan were also nervous. They were worried that Ye Feng would be slapped in the face.
After all, what he said was too strange.
He didn’t even look at it carefully just now, but he was already certain that this painting was stitched together. Moreover, the stitching marks were so small that they needed to be seen with a microscope?
How unbelievable was that?
Ye Feng was the calmest one among them. He was not confident in himself, he was confident in the deep scanning system.
At least up until now, his system had not made a single mistake.
The room remained silent until ten minutes later, when Xu Qingfeng slowly left the microscope with an indescribable smile on his face.
Qingfeng, what’s the result?” Chen Qiushan grabbed his arm, losing his composure.
Xu Qingfeng did not answer immediately. He looked at Ye Feng with interest. “I am very curious, why do you say that this painting is stitched together?”
Everyone looked at Ye Feng, they wanted to hear what he had to say.
“I… I guessed.” Ye Feng gave an unexpected answer.
“Pfft…” Chen Xuan couldn’t help but laugh out loud. This guy was too much. He was actually joking on such a formal occasion.
“Humph! How dare you say that? Without any evidence, you said that someone else’s calligraphy and painting were fake. You’re simply making irresponsible remarks.” Pang Daqian was very dissatisfied with him and immediately mocked him.
The other appraisers also began to criticize him.
“How serious is it to appraise antiques? How can you be so childish? What is this?”
“Summer insects cannot talk about ice. Letting such a person appraise Zheng Banqiao’s painting is the greatest insult to Zheng Banqiao.”
“I heard that he’s the owner of Maple Leaf Pavilion? From his strength and attitude, we can see that the Maple Leaf Pavilion is just an empty name.”
“Ignorance is not scary. Ignorance and arrogance are the most terrifying…”
The situation went out of control again.
Chen Qiushan shook his head and smiled bitterly. “Qingfeng, don’t keep me in suspense. What’s the result of your appraisal?”
Xu Qingfeng didn’t expect his words to start another scolding battle. He felt a little awkward.
“Ahem, this painting is indeed stitched together!”
“Caw…”
The appraisers who were scolding Ye Feng with their saliva flying all over the place were like a group of ducks whose necks were suddenly strangled. Their voices suddenly stopped.
