Scumbag God, I can see the entry of desire

Zhou Zhongdang replied with a smile:"That's right!"

"Ancient lotus seeds are dark in color and have a hard shell, so it is difficult to identify their specific dynasty."

"Mr. Lin identified such a difficult item as an ancient lotus seed from the Song Dynasty. This shows that Mr. Lin's ability in identifying treasures is outstanding among young treasure appraisers!" Zhou Zhongdang praised. Zhuang Jingxue couldn't help but praise:"In this case, Mr. Lin is really a young and promising man!"

Lin Lang replied modestly:"Aunt Xue, you are too kind!"

"I have just entered the antique business and know only a little about treasure appraisal. It is like showing off one's skills in front of Lu Ban, a master of treasure appraisal like Uncle Zhou."

Zhuang Jingxue laughed after hearing this and said,"Mr. Lin is talented and virtuous, humble and polite, and he is rich but low-key. He is very good and rare!"

Lin Lang smiled politely.

Zhou Mengyao couldn't help but asked curiously,"Lin Lang, how did you know that these seven black ancient lotus seeds are from the Song Dynasty?"

Lin Lang naturally couldn't answer. He used the [Universal Item Prompt System】��He lied and said,"Using plant physiology methods, we can deduce the lifespan of ancient lotus seeds from the growth patterns of the palisade cells on the outer skin of the lotus seeds."

Zhou Mengyao asked,"Is it just like observing the annual rings of a tree?"

Lin Lang replied,"Basically the same."

Zhuang Jingxue was skeptical after hearing this, thinking,"The study of ancient lotus seeds is very unpopular. Could it be that Lin Lang, a college student majoring in finance, can make contributions to plant biology?!"

Zhou Mengyao exclaimed,"Old classmate, you are amazing! I didn't expect you to study ancient lotus seeds."

Lin Lang continued,"Among these seven ancient lotus seeds from the Song Dynasty, at least three or four can be regenerated. First, break the shell, soak the seeds, then germinate and plant them. Remember these steps, and flowering will not be a problem."

Zhou Mengyao was surprised after hearing this,"Really?"

"Ancient lotus seeds from hundreds of years ago can still be planted and germinated. Isn't this a fantasy?"

Lin Lang smiled and replied:"Many things are like this, far beyond our cognition."

"Mengyao, you don't know that according to the Institute of Archaeology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the lifespan of ancient lotus seeds is about 830-1250 years old, which is the longest-lived seed in the world."

Zhou Mengyao was very shocked after hearing this, and looked at her father Zhou Zhongdang and asked:"Dad, is Lin Lang right?"

Zhou Zhongdang replied:"Mr. Lin is right, the ancient lotus seeds have been sleeping for a thousand years and can come back to life, it's simply a miracle."

Zhou Mengyao was puzzled and said:"It's amazing, how is it possible?"

Lin Lang replied patiently:"There is a small air chamber inside the ancient lotus seeds, which stores 0.2 mg of oxygen and carbon dioxide. Although the amount is small, it is of decisive significance to maintain the life of the ancient lotus seeds."

"In addition, the water content in the ancient lotus seeds is very small, only 12%"

"In a dry, low-temperature, and closed environment, the ancient lotus seeds do not have the conditions to take root and sprout. They live a leisurely dormant life, with their metabolism almost stopped, but they are able to maintain vitality."

"Mengyao, I have explained so much to you, do you understand now?"

Zhou Mengyao smiled sweetly and replied:"Lin Lang, what you said is very professional and easy to understand. You are really knowledgeable and talented!"

Zhuang Jingxue was surprised to hear that Lin Lang said so much at once, and the highly professional knowledge of ancient lotus seed research in biology, she couldn't help but dispel her doubts about Lin Lang, and even looked at him differently.

The more Zhou Zhongdang looked at the junior Lin Lang, the more he liked him from the bottom of his heart. He cherished talents very much, and his eyes couldn't hide the idea of wanting to take Lin Lang as his apprentice.

Zhuang Jingxue, who was standing aside, saw at a glance that her husband Zhou Zhongdang wanted to take Lin Lang as his apprentice.

Zhou Zhongdang said:"Professional talents in antique appraisal must not only master various antique professional knowledge, but also have profound knowledge of ancient history and art. They also need to master relevant chemistry and physics professional knowledge. It is difficult to reach a certain height and level without hard work and study, and without long-term practice."

Zhou Mengyao laughed at herself and said:"Yes!"

"Because learning antique appraisal requires too much knowledge, I, as the daughter of a treasure appraiser, dare not get involved in the antique business. It is too difficult to become an excellent treasure appraiser."

"We should not only have a deep understanding of the characteristics, schools, styles and heritage of various antiques, but also have a deep understanding of the characteristics, schools, styles and heritage of various antiques."

"You also need to be able to distinguish the authenticity, authenticity, age, historical background and collection value of antiques. If you are not careful and buy a fake, the loss will be tens of millions, or even tens of millions or hundreds of millions of Chinese yuan."

Lin Lang said with a smile:"Everyone is good at and likes different professions, so it is not difficult for those who are not good at it, and it is not difficult for those who are good at it."

"Mengyao, you are the top-ranked female racer in Xia country. You are the best in the field of women's motorcycle racing, so it doesn't matter if you don't learn antique appraisal."

Zhou Mengyao asked:"Old classmate, don't you think it's difficult to learn antique appraisal?"

"I don’t think it’s that difficult?!" Lin Lang shrugged.

Zhou Mengyao praised:"Antique appraisal is not something that can be done overnight, nor is it something that everyone can do. It seems that you, Lin Lang, are gifted and have the potential to become an expert in treasure appraisal~"

Lin Lang joked:"Mengyao, you said I have the potential to become an expert in treasure appraisal, could it be the brick of the brick?"

"hehe……"Zhou Mengyao smiled sweetly.

Then, Zhou Zhongdang unfolded a scroll and spread it on the table, asking,"Mr. Lin, please give me your opinion on this painting in my collection?"

Lin Lang looked at the treasure appraisal prompt through the system screen and replied without hesitation,"This ancient painting looks like a common painting from the Republic of China,"Lotus Pond", and the signature is not a famous artist."

"However, this humble painting"Lotus Pond" from the Republic of China period actually contains a mystery. It is a"painting within a painting", which must contain a valuable painting by a famous artist."

Zhou Zhongdang was shocked and said,"Mr. Lin has an extraordinary eye!"

"You only need to take a quick look at"The Pleasure of the Lotus Pond" to discover that this painting from the Republic of China is a painting within a painting that contains a hidden meaning.’？"

"Uh... Uncle Zhou, is it difficult to authenticate this painting with your own eyes?"

Zhou Zhongdang was surprised and said,"Mr. Lin, don't you think it's very simple, not difficult at all?"

Lin Lang replied,"It's obvious at a glance that it's a 'painting within a painting', it's not difficult for a junior to authenticate it with his own eyes!"

Zhou Zhongdang wiped his cold sweat after hearing this. He was shocked by Lin Lang's talent and vision in identifying antique calligraphy and paintings, and his pupils dilated, with a look of disbelief on his face.

Zhou Mengyao looked at the ordinary"Picture of the Lotus Pond" and asked in confusion,"Lin Lang, what is the 'painting within a painting' with hidden secrets?"

Lin Lang replied patiently,"The so-called 'painting within a painting' is that some people who love painting ask highly skilled painting mounters to attach their worthless works to valuable paintings in order to conceal their tracks and protect the valuable calligraphy and paintings from being robbed and stolen."

"It is very wise to pass down valuable calligraphy and paintings through the method of"painting in painting"."

"Not only will the calligraphy and paintings not be stolen or robbed because they are too valuable, but also because the clumsy works attached to the precious calligraphy and paintings have some collection value, the precious calligraphy and paintings hidden in them will not be destroyed."

After hearing this, Zhou Mengyao exclaimed:"Lin Lang, you are so amazing!"

‘’I can't tell that there is a precious painting hidden under this painting"Lotus Pond", which is really unheard of. I didn't expect there would be such a magical operation."

Zhuang Jingxue, who was standing aside, asked:"Honey, this"Lotus Pond" from the Republic of China period really has a secret, is there a painting within the painting?"

Zhou Zhongdang laughed loudly:"That's right!"

"This painting of"Lotus Pond" from the Republic of China period contains a very precious"Pond Fish Picture", which is a famous painting by Bada Shanren. The current collection price is no less than 80 million Chinese yuan."

"You can see this at a glance, Mr. Lin has a really good eye!"

Lin Lang smiled but said nothing.

Zhuang Jingxue asked tentatively:"Husband, is it difficult for ordinary treasure appraisers to find the secret hidden in this painting?" Zhou

Zhongdang replied with an exaggerated expression:"It is impossible for an appraiser without more than 30 years of experience in treasure appraisal to see that this painting has a secret, and there is a painting within the painting!"

"Wow……"

Zhuang Jingxue exclaimed:"In this case, Mr. Lin's skills in identifying antiques, calligraphy and paintings are really rare and not simple!"

""Dad, if I remember correctly, wasn't this painting of"Lotus Pond" from the Republic of China period passed down by grandpa before he died?" Zhou Mengyao asked.
