After the two of them had a look, they found that the painting was a fake.

Then, an old man in his sixties or seventies and a middle-aged man in a suit came over, followed by the museum director.

“Boss Chen, this is Mr. He………….”

The director briefly introduced both parties.

“You said that my collection is fake?!”

Mr. He didn’t care about Chen Fan’s identity at all and questioned Chen Fan directly.

“Yes.”

Chen Fan nodded.

“I authenticated this painting by Wen Zhengming, and it will never be fake.”

Mr. He also said with confidence.

“What if it is fake?”

Chen Fan asked back.

“If it is fake…………..”

Mr. He fell into thinking.

The man in a suit next to Mr. He stepped forward and whispered a few words in Mr. He’s ear.

After hearing what the man in a suit said, Mr. He, who was originally angry, smiled instantly.

“If it is fake, I will give you all the 30% ownership of Qingyun Private Museum in my hand.”

“But if this painting is real, you also have to give me 35% ownership of Qingyun Private Museum in your hand.”

Mr. He looked at Chen Fan provocatively.

This idea was given to him by the man in a suit. Mr. He was very confident in his identification ability, and he agreed with the man in a suit’s proposal.

He can get 35% of the shares of the museum for free

“You are too beautiful. The painting is fake, and you only give 30% ownership. But if it is real, I will give you 35% ownership, which is 5% more than you. You are so shameless, right?!”

Yuan Anping stood up and spoke up for Chen Fan.

“How about this, I’ll add another 300 million, that’ll be all right, right?”

The man in the suit said.

‘Sure.’

Chen Fan agreed.

The other party took the initiative to give him 30% of the ownership of Qingyun Private Museum, plus 300 million. How could Chen Fan not accept such a good thing? !

That [Primary God of Luck] is really useful.

Today, my luck has improved a lot.

“It’s a deal.”

Mr. He also nodded.

Then, Mr. He came to the painting of Wen Zhengming and talked freely:

“To look at a painting, you must first look at the paper. This paper is definitely from the Ming Dynasty. Do you have any objection to this?”

Mr. He looked at Chen Fan.

In the antique world, he is known as “He Ban Zhang”, which means that he only needs to look at half of a painting to tell whether it is real or fake without even opening it completely! ! !

His strength is recognized by the appraisal world.

“This is indeed a piece of paper from the Ming Dynasty.”

Chen Fan nodded, he had no objection.

“Look at the style of this painting again, it is completely Wen Zhengming’s painting style…”

After that, Mr. He told Chen Fan about Wen Zhengming’s painting style and other issues, and Chen Fan also felt that what Mr. He said was right.

“Since you also agree with the points I just said, why do you say that this painting is fake?!”

Mr. He was very confused.

“What you said is all right, but you overlooked a detail!”

Chen Fan spoke.

“Oh, what detail?”

Mr. He didn’t believe that there would be any problem with his appraisal.

“Did you see the seal on the signature of this painting?”

Chen Fan asked.

“Of course I saw it, it uses the famous and most high-end Longquan ink in ancient times.”

Mr. He nodded.

In ancient times, the top-quality Longquan ink was exclusively supplied to the royal family. Even now, a small box of top-quality Longquan ink costs hundreds of thousands of yuan, and there may only be 100 grams of ink in a small box.

In ancient times, Longquan ink was the most respected stationery for literati and scholars.

“When was Longquan ink invented?”

“It seems to be in the 16th century.”

Mr. He thought for a while and answered.

“When did Wen Zhengming die?”

Chen Fan asked again.

“Wen Zhengming died in 1559 at the age of 90…”

Mr. He answered without hesitation.

However, he was only halfway through his words when he suddenly froze and found something wrong.

Longquan ink was invented in the 16th century, but Wen Zhengming died in 1559.

In other words, Longquan ink was invented decades or even hundreds of years after Wen Zhengming’s death.

Then why is there so much ink on Wen Zhengming’s works?

On the other hand, the painting was signed with Longquan ink? !

Mr. He was stunned instantly.

Beside him, the man in a suit must have been dumbfounded as well.

At this moment, needless to say, the painting by Wen Zhengming in front of him is 100% fake!!

“Ah………….”

“My identification skills are not good enough.”

Mr. He sighed and admitted that he had made a mistake.

He had read all the points for identifying calligraphy and painting, but he missed such a small detail, but it was such a small detail that made him misjudge.

Just when Mr. He was willing to admit defeat and was ready to hand over the 30% ownership to Chen Fan, the man in a suit suddenly regretted it.

“Mr. He, the 30% ownership of Qingyun Private Museum in your hands is worth more than 1 billion yuan, and you just gave it to him?”

“We didn’t sign an agreement just now, why should we give it to him?!”

The man in a suit looked like a rogue.

“Boy, Mr. He is a famous appraisal master in our Zhonghai Province. He knows many wealthy people and big shots.”

“I am also the vice president of Jiangzhou Futian Chamber of Commerce. Do you dare to ask for my three hundred million?!!!”

The man in the suit directly showed his identity to scare Chen Fan!
