Jin Yutong

Chapter 96 Gnomes

When Chen Ran and Guo Hai came, the whole hall was still empty, but when the column was about to start, a large group of people suddenly poured in. The whole hall was filled with seats, and most of them were still wearing their own company clothes, the kind of t-shirts with certain companies written on them.

"Oh my god, Xiaoran, look at the good place you chose. Damn, you are so outrageous. No wonder you don't sit in it. That's what happened. You're not looking for a buddy. It's a crime." When Chen Ran was testing the distance that the energy aperture could detect, he was suddenly pushed by Guo Hai, and then he heard his complaints.

When Chen Ran looked over strangely, he saw Guo Hai winking at him with a bitter face.Taking a look, Chen Ran immediately understood what was going on. It turned out that there was a dwarf sitting on the seat next to Guo Hai's left.

This dwarf is not only short in stature, but also extremely fat. Sitting on the seat, he looks like a meatball. When Chen Ran sat down, the dwarf leaned on the seat, with his head raised, with a head on his head. With a tripod hat, Chen Ran didn't notice it, and thought it was just a fat kid.

At this moment, the dwarf seemed to be asleep, and the hat on his face fell off, only then did Chen Ran realize that the other party was actually a dwarf.

"call……"

The dwarf fell asleep without saying anything, but still snored. What made Guo Hai angry was that when the dwarf fell asleep, he would lean his head on his shoulder from time to time.This is still not what made Guo Hai the most angry. What made him most angry was that when the dwarf leaned his head on his shoulder, the saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth dripped on his 'naked' exposed arm.

While resisting the urge to vomit, while wiping the drool on his arm, Guo Hai almost died of nausea!

Seeing this scene, Chen Ran couldn't help frowning, the dwarf in front of him was really not flattered when he was sleeping.

"My God, why do you still have such a superb product!" Looking up, he found that the seat was already full, and Guo Hai, who wanted to change another seat, could only sit in the original seat aggrieved, but he went Chen Ran squeezed here, and after sitting down, he lay down next to Chen Ran, muttering angrily with a bitter face.

"Brother, are you talking about me?"

As soon as Guo Hai's muttering fell, a voice suddenly came from behind him, which startled Guo Hai and Chen Ran. Generally speaking, people with physical disabilities like this have low self-esteem , what Guo Hai said, it doesn't matter if the other party can't hear it, if it is heard, then it will be an enemy to the other party, and it will undoubtedly appear that he lacks quality.

The one who spoke was the dwarf sitting on the left of Guo Hai. At this moment, the dwarf was still asleep. He looked at Guo Hai and Chen Ran with a smile on his face. The dwarf was not only short in stature, but also white and fat. The color is rosy, and when he smiles, his eyes are only the size of mung beans, which looks a bit like Maitreya Buddha.

"Ahem... buddy, you misunderstood me, I was joking with my brother, how dare I say you." Guo Hai was almost choked, and he was overheard when he whispered bad things about others. His skin was as thick as a city wall. He was somewhat embarrassed.

"That's right." The dwarf was still squinting his eyes and smiling happily, "I heard my brother's words just after waking up, and I thought it was someone praising me in my dream. Such a thing, it has been many years, and no one has praised me like this for many years!"

There was no trace of anger in the dwarf's voice, but Guo Hai's head was full of black lines, and he felt a little 'creepy'.

"Sir, I'm really sorry, my friend just said it casually, so don't be angry, he's just this 'fault', let him apologize to you!"

This dwarf, obviously, is a character with a smiling face. Although the other party's tone does not sound angry at all, it would be strange if he was not angry in his heart. However, no matter whether the other party is angry or not, Guo Hai will always say something like this Something was wrong, and Chen Ran could only open his mouth to accompany one of them.

"Brother, I'm not angry. Look, I don't look angry." The dwarf waved his hands again and again, his small eyes were still smiling, and he reached out and patted Guo Hai's shoulder: "I like to listen to others Praise me, next time you want to praise me, you must praise me in front of my face, don’t carry me behind your back, how do I know you are praising me, I don’t know you are praising me , how could I be happy, brother, do you think this is the reason?"

Guo Hai was a little dizzy... "Everyone, be quiet!" At this moment, the voice of the hostess came from the hall: "Everyone, all Tibetan friends, welcome to participate in the event co-sponsored by CCTV and Tianzhong TV. The first Treasure Appreciation Column of the Prosperous Collection..."

After the hostess gave her opening remarks, there was crackling applause in the hall, and after the applause fell, the hostess went on to say: "Next, we invite five experts from the expert group of the Shengshi Collection Appraisal column to come on stage... "

After the voice fell behind, there was another burst of thunderous applause.

Now is the era of entertainment for all, and even the Appreciation of Treasures column has become an entertainment program. When experts enter the arena, there is not only a soundtrack, but also a beam of light closely following the experts.

When each expert enters the arena, the host next to him will introduce the experts who enter the arena to the guests present. Every time an expert is introduced, there will be bursts of warm applause.

To Chen Ran's surprise and surprise, the last expert to enter was Wang Zhiqing, deputy director of the Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archeology.

In the morning, I heard Wang Zhiqing say that he still has something to do in the afternoon. Only then did Chen Ran know that the other party was invited to be an expert judge by the Appreciation column. Believe me, although he and Wang Zhiqing didn't have much contact, he could tell that this person was quite bookish, and he wasn't pedantic either.

"Why is this guy so haunted!"

Guo Hai also looked at Wang Zhiqing in surprise. Chen Ran's perception of Wang Zhiqing was not bad, but Guo Hai's perception of Wang Zhiqing was just the opposite. Yesterday he regarded Wang Zhiqing as two hundred and five. The first impression is undoubtedly the most important. Later, Wang Zhiqing promised Chen Ran to let Chen Ran participate in this archaeology, which immediately made him dissatisfied with Wang Zhiqing.

In addition to Wang Zhiqing, the other four experts are Mr. Liu who is the vice president of the Tianzhong City Collection Association, Mr. He who is the director of the Municipal Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee, Mr. Zhang who is a member of the National Museum Association and the director of the Municipal Museum, and Mr. Li, a famous historian of Tianzhong University and a postgraduate tutor of the Department of History.

In addition, Mr. Wang Zhiqing, the deputy director of the Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, and five experts are all authoritative and highly respected in the field of antiques. As they entered the venue, the audience burst into warm applause.

The five experts are full-time experts who specialize in individual events, and each is familiar with a type. For example, Mr. Wang Zhiqing specializes in calligraphy and painting, Mr. Liu, the vice president of the Collection Association, specializes in ceramics, Mr. He, the director of the Cultural Relics Appraisal Committee, specializes in bronze, and Mr. Zhang, the curator of the Municipal Museum, specializes in calligraphy and painting. Jadeware, Mr. Li, the postgraduate tutor of the History Department of Tianzhong University, specializes in miscellaneous items... After introducing the experts and the guests, the hostess announced the start: "The following is our first collection of today!"

The first to be identified was a piece of porcelain.

The appraiser is a middle-aged man surnamed Wu. He holds a wooden box in both hands, and puts the wooden box in front of Mr. Liu, who specializes in ceramics. He opens the wooden box and takes out a dark red porcelain bowl. .

Mr. Wu was not stage-frightened at all, and he directly said that this porcelain bowl is a family heirloom of his family: "This bowl was used by my family to serve vegetables when I was a child. Everyone didn't know that it was a treasure. I intend to play with it this year. When I was collecting it, I found out that it was a treasure. Looking at the text from the bottom of the bowl, it was marked as a work of the Qianlong period, but in order to find out its actual value, I asked Mr. Liu to give it an appraisal."

Teacher Liu asked him to put the porcelain bowl on the table, so he picked up the magnifying glass next to it and looked at it carefully, and kept touching the bottom of the porcelain bowl, the mouth of the bowl and other parts with his hands.

When Mr. Liu appraised it on the stage, there was also discussion among the audience below. In fact, most of the audience were laymen, so they just watched the excitement, and they could only guess whether it was true or false.

"Ah Ran, what's the matter, is it worth it?" Guo Hai leaned into Chen Ran's ear and asked impatiently after the things were taken up.

Chen Ran shook his head and ignored him, the collection was placed in front of the expert, and the expert used a magnifying glass, he sat so far away, if he could see clearly, then it would be no wonder, he did not release the energy immediately Aperture detection, this is meaningless to him, he came here to practice his eyesight, not for others to appraise, so he is only going to release the energy aperture when he feels the controversial collection Probing, if there is no controversy, is unnecessary.

Chen Ran ignored Guo Hai, but someone else answered Guo Hai's words. This person was the dwarf sitting next to Guo Hai. He twisted his body, looked at Guo Hai, and said with a smile: "Brother, It's boring for us to just sit here, why don't we just have some fun, what do you think?"

What the dwarf said was indeed reasonable. When Guo Hai heard it, he became interested: "How do you play?"

Pointing to the porcelain bowl on the stage, the dwarf said with a smile: "See, just this bowl, let's each bet 100 yuan to bet on whether it is real or not, and whoever wins the bet will take all 200 yuan and put it down." In one game, whoever wins speaks first, and the other can only bet on the opposite. Misfortune comes out of the mouth, and if you say it, you have to pay the price. This is the first round. Let me speak first. We count as a sum Cancel it, now I bet this bowl is not real."

When the dwarf was talking, he stretched out two fingers on his right hand, and in the next moment, a 100-yuan bill was handed over, which happened to be caught between the dwarf's two fingers, and then he threw the [-] yuan between his fingers. It is above the position between him and Guo Hai.

At this scene, both Chen Ran and Guo Hai couldn't help but look back.
