Lin Fan gasped in shock as the information from his X-Ray Vision stunned him. This Bronze Tiger, known as Du Hu Fu, was a genuine artifact worth a staggering one hundred million!
When the old man with the white beard introduced the Bronze Tiger, he claimed he had no idea what it was.
Around him, people began to gather, examining it closely.
“Hey, isn’t this Du Hu Fu? How did it end up in your hands?”
Finally, someone knowledgeable recognized the Bronze Tiger's name, but they were puzzled because the Bronze Tiger was supposed to be a prized possession of a certain museum!
“This has to be fake! The real Du Hu Fu is a treasure of that museum and worth one hundred million,” someone declared confidently.
The crowd grew more familiar with the artifact as someone pulled out their phone to search for Du Hu Fu. Instantly, they found information about it.
As a museum treasure, Du Hu Fu naturally had photos and detailed information available online. Everyone compared the pictures and confirmed that this wooden tiger looked exactly like Du Hu Fu.
“This is a fake! The real Du Hu Fu is in the museum!”
“Exactly! Unless you stole the real Du Hu Fu from the museum, which you wouldn’t dare to do, this has to be fake.”
The people present were adamant, convinced that the Du Hu Fu in the old man's hands was counterfeit. The old man felt increasingly embarrassed.
He had known for a long time that this Du Hu Fu was fake, but he just couldn't tell whether it was real or not, because he thought it was too realistic. He asked many experts to identify it, and those experts said that it was very likely to be real, but everyone knew that the real Du Hu Fu was the treasure of the museum and it was impossible for it to be circulated. So, his was a fake. "Lin Fan, what do you think?" Zhang Daolin turned his head and looked at Lin Fan. Although he knew that this Du Hu Fu was fake, he still looked at Lin Fan instinctively. "This is the real Du Hu Fu!" Lin Fan just said this calmly, and Zhang Daolin took a breath. "Did he steal Du Hu Fu?" Everyone knows that the real Du Hu Fu is regarded as the treasure of the museum in the town. Now Lin Fan said that this Du Hu Fu is real, so there is only one possibility! "I don't know, maybe it is, or maybe it is not..." Lin Fan shook his head. Before this, he had no idea what Du Hu Fu was. X-Ray Vision told him that this Du Hu Fu was genuine and worth 100 million. "I'll go ask!"
Zhang Daolin approached the old man with the white beard and inquired about where he had obtained the Du Hu Fu.
The old man replied that he had received it from an elderly person in the countryside, believing it to be a genuine artifact. He insisted that he had never stolen the Du Hu Fu from any museum.
"Whether it's stolen or not, I can find out by calling Director Wang," Li Changfeng suddenly interjected. The crowd fell silent as he pulled out his phone and dialed the director of a certain museum.
"Hello, Director Wang? I’d like to ask if your museum's treasure, the Du Hu Fu, is still there and if there have been any theft incidents recently?"
Li Changfeng made the call in front of everyone.
Director Wang quickly confirmed that nothing had been lost from their museum and that the treasured Du Hu Fu was still intact.
"Then it's confirmed—you have a fake!" Li Changfeng said as he hung up. A collective sigh of relief swept through the crowd; if it had indeed been stolen, everyone present would have been implicated.
The old man with the white beard shook his head in disappointment, fiddling with the Du Hu Fu in his hands. It looked so authentic that he had consulted many experts who also deemed it genuine.
Without knowing that this particular Du Hu Fu was under scrutiny, everyone had confidently declared it to be real!
However, since Li Changfeng had already contacted Director Wang and confirmed that the real Du Hu Fu was not missing, it was clear that this one was a counterfeit.
The old man with white beard was also very sorry, but according to the rules, he still had to give a number. So, he symbolically gave a price of 100,000. Of course, everyone shook their heads. They were all sure that this was a Fake, so how could anyone spend 100,000 to buy a fake? "Buy it!" Lin Fan said to Zhang Daolin with certainty. Zhang Daolin hesitated for a moment. They were all sure that this was a fake, so why would they spend 100,000 to buy a Fake? He didn't understand, but Lin Fan was very sure. "Lin Fan, this is a Fake, are you sure you want to buy it?" Zhang Daolin smiled bitterly. "This is not a Fake, this is the real thing!" Lin Fan was very sure. "You saw it all, Director Wang said that the real Du Hu Fu was not lost." Zhang Daolin felt that it was not worth spending 100,000 to buy a Fake. "Is it possible that this is the real Du Hu Fu and the one in the museum is fake!" Lin Fan said calmly. "You mean..."
Zhang Daolin shuddered. The Du Hu Fu in the museum had quite a history before it was deemed the museum's treasure.
This Du Hu Fu had been identified as a fake three times before an expert from the museum recognized its true value, ultimately declaring it an authentic artifact, which is why it became the museum's prized possession.
Everyone knew the story of this Du Hu Fu. It was originally unearthed by a farmer who thought it was just an ordinary relic.
After lying idle for three years, the farmer decided to sell it when someone in his family fell ill and he needed money. He took the Du Hu Fu to an antique market with a hopeful attitude.
However, after the first expert examined it, he declared it a fake. Undeterred, the farmer sought out a second expert, who also confirmed it was a fake.
He consulted three different groups of experts, all of whom concluded that it was indeed a fake.
Yet, deep down, he believed it was genuine. With medical expenses mounting for his family, he had no choice but to approach a certain museum.
There, he encountered an expert who had the insight to recognize its authenticity.
Thus began the saga of the Du Hu Fu. This tiger talisman dated back to the Pre-Qin Period and was worth an immense fortune!
"That's right! This Du Hu Fu is the real deal; the one in the museum is likely a fake!" Lin Fan asserted confidently. He trusted his X-Ray Vision wouldn't deceive him. After all, the museum's treasure had been declared a fake three times before finally being authenticated by one of their own experts.
But the possibility that it is fake is also quite high.
"Let's buy this Du Hu Fu and take it to the museum to compare it with their treasure. Then we'll know what's real and what's fake!" Lin Fan said.
"Alright, I'll buy it!"
Zhang Daolin gritted his teeth, deciding to trust Lin Fan this time.
Just as the old man with the white beard announced a price of 100,000, no one else made a bid. Zhang Daolin raised his hand and offered 100,000.
The old man with the white beard let out a sigh of relief. He had bought this Du Hu Fu for 20,000, and if he couldn't sell it, he would be at a loss.
Fearing that Zhang Daolin might change his mind, he hurried over to complete the transaction, handing over the money while receiving the item.
"Lin Fan, how about we go to the museum another day to compare its authenticity?" Zhang Daolin said excitedly.
