The beauty reception did not respond, but the old man who looked more than 70 years old beside her had bright eyes after seeing the five string Pipa with dragon head and phoenix tail on the table. Before the beauty reception opened, the old man carefully picked up the pipa from the table, measured it carefully for a while, and exclaimed.

"What a beautiful Tang Dynasty Pipa!"

Hearing the speech, Luo Tian smiled faintly and then looked at the old man. When he was outside, Luo Tian already knew that the old man was the appraiser in the room, so the old man could recognize that the golden snail ebony five string Pipa was from the Tang Dynasty. Luo Tian was not surprised.

"Er, sir, this is the gold medal appraiser hired by our association. Let him identify your pipa."

At this time, the beauty reception also responded and hurriedly introduced to Luo Tian.

"Yes."

In this regard, Luo Tian just nodded slightly and still stared at the old man with a smile, waiting for the identification result of the other party.

After reading the golden snail ebony five string Pipa from beginning to end, the old man then carefully put the pipa on the table, smiled and said to Luo Tian: "this little gentleman, your five string Pipa can be called first-class in terms of carving and workmanship. It's really a rare good product. I've been studying the pipa for years, but such a beautiful Pipa is rarely seen!"

Then, the old man glanced at the golden snail black sandalwood five string Pipa on the table and looked with admiration. Seeing this scene, the beauty reception nearby couldn't help but cast her eyes. Although she didn't understand antiques, she rarely heard the old appraiser praise an antique so much. From this point of view... The value of this Pipa should not be low!

Thinking of this, when the beauty reception looked at Luo Tian again, her attitude was much more polite than before. She smiled and asked, "I don't know how much this Pipa... Sir, are you going to start shooting?"

"200 million!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Luo Tian shouted out the starting price he had already thought of.

To be honest, with the value of this golden snail ebony five string pipa, the starting price of 200 million is not high, but it still startled the beauty reception and the elderly.

After the two people looked at each other, the old man directly exclaimed, "what? 200 million!?"

"Why, it's not worth it?" Luo Tian slightly raised his eyebrows and showed a touch of displeasure in his expression.

Seeing this, the old man took a deep breath, then gritted his teeth and said straight to the point: "little sir, with all due respect, although your Pipa was made in the Tang Dynasty and its workmanship is very exquisite, it was not made by a famous master, so..."

"Hum! You said my Pipa was not made by a famous master?"

Before the old man finished, Luo Tian began to plan directly, but this time, his voice became very cold!

In fact, the old man didn't recognize the golden snail ebony five string pipa. It was completely within Luo Tian's expectation. If you're not polite, I'm afraid there are few people in China who can recognize the origin of the golden snail ebony five string pipa. Otherwise, Luo Tian couldn't have photographed it at a super low price of 40 million!

The reason why he is very angry is naturally to build momentum for what he wants to say next!

The female receptionist and the old man naturally didn't know that Luo Tian was pretending to be angry. Seeing that the customer was angry, the female receptionist immediately burst into a cold sweat on her forehead, but the old appraiser's face drooped slightly.

To be honest, a highly qualified gold medal appraiser like the old man must be at the peak of the industry. He has ability and pride, and naturally has a temper. If Zhao Danian hadn't spent a lot of money to hire him at the beginning, he wouldn't have provided services for such informal exchanges.

People like this can't stand the face of others, not to mention questioning him face-to-face in the field of his most proud ancient musical instruments!

So at this time, the old man had a trace of anger, and his tone of voice was not as polite as before.

"I admit that this Pipa is similar to the craftsmanship of famous masters in many places, but on the whole, it does not conform to the style of any craftsman in the Tang Dynasty. Moreover, as far as I know, no craftsman in the Tang Dynasty has ever made a five string pipa, so I conclude that it should be a Pipa made by imitating the craftsmanship of famous masters. Although it is valuable, it is not worth 200 million Count! "

With a cold face, the old man judged the value of the golden snail ebony five string pipa, and then stopped looking at Luo Tian.

Seeing this scene, Luo Tian smiled coldly again, and the next sentence almost made the old man angry with a heart attack.

"Do you really understand Pipa?"

"You..."

As soon as these words came out, the old man's face was livid. He angrily pointed to Luo Tian and couldn't speak directly.

After discovering this situation, the beauty reception hurried to take over the conversation and introduced Luo Tian: "Sir, our old Lin has studied ancient musical instruments for at least 50 years and has never looked out of sight. You can rest assured of his eyesight."

"Fifty years?"

Luo Tian smiled coldly, glanced at the angry old Lin and said, "hum... It seems that you have lived in vain for 50 years!"

"You..."

Lin Laoqi stumbled and almost fainted. He angrily pointed to Luo Tian and wanted to scold, but he couldn't remember any swearing words for a moment.

Seeing this, the beauty reception hurried up to help Lin Lao, and then looked at Luo Tian. The tone became quite bad, "Sir, please pay attention to your wording!"

"Don't your appraiser know the goods, and I have to be polite to him?" Luo Tian still pressed step by step, without the slightest intention of giving way.

"This..."

Directly asked the beauty reception speechless, couldn't help but turn his eyes to old Lin.

Seeing this scene, old Lin took a deep breath, then pushed the beauty reception away, stared at Luo Tian for a long time, and then showed a angry smile.

"Good good!!!"

After three good words, old Lin pointed to the five string Pipa on the table and said to Luo Tian, "since you say I don't know the goods, I want to hear it. What's your opinion on this five string Pipa?"

"High opinion no, low opinion I have some."

Luo Tian waited for Lin Lao's words. After a faint smile, he went forward and put the golden snail ebony five string Pipa in his hand, stroked the string and said.

"This five string pipa, named Jinluo ebony five string pipa, was jointly built by five craftsmen of the Tang Dynasty. If you really study ancient musical instruments for 50 years, you should understand the characteristics of craftsmen and masters of each dynasty!"

Speaking of this, Luo Tian didn't hurry to go on, but first looked at Lin Lao's expression and found that the latter's expression changed several times, from shock to suddenly, and finally became incredible!

Seeing this, Luo Tian took back his eyes and continued to introduce.

"Among them, the head, shaft and panel of the golden snail ebony five string Pipa were carefully carved by Si Kong Yongxin, a craftsman master of the Tang Dynasty. The phoenix platform, mountain pass and neck were made by Master Yu Wenbo. The appearance, products, sound holes, upper sound columns and lower sound columns were made by Kuai Le, a court musician. The back plate and complex hands were made by Zhong Deyi!"

At one breath, Luo Tian explained all the parts of the golden snail ebony five string Pipa from beginning to end. Which part was made by which craftsman and master said in detail.

In an instant, the old Lin was subdued. He stared at the golden snail ebony five string Pipa for a while. He was stunned to find that it really seemed like what Luo Tian said. He couldn't do well with the five string Pipa... It was made jointly by several craftsmen and masters!

If so... The value of this Pipa

Hiss!

Lin Lao was clever, then took a breath and looked at Luo Tian again. Not only did he lose half his anger, but even his tone became more respectful than before.

"If I remember correctly, you just said that five masters worked together, but just now... It seems that there are only four." then, old Lin asked slightly puzzled.

Feeling the change of Lin Lao's attitude, the beauty reception is completely in a state of ignorance. Does Lin Lao really look out of sight?

Oh, my God! Who the hell is this young man? He knows more than Lin!

In the shocked eyes of the beauty reception, Luo Tian explained with a smile: "these parts are indeed made by these four craftsmen, but what assembles these parts together is another craftsmen!"

Speaking of this, Luo Tian paused. After both of them cast their curious eyes, they faintly said a name.

"Gongsun Chengzhi!"

Hiss!

As soon as these words came out, old Lin took another breath, because Gongsun Chengzhi, the most famous craftsman in the Tang Dynasty, took out one of his musical instruments casually today, which is worth hundreds of millions. If this musical instrument was really made by him and four other craftsman masters

It's an unparalleled orphan in the world!

Thinking of this, old Lin "Gudong" swallowed his saliva. After thinking a little, he looked at Luo Tian excitedly and asked, "this little gentleman, I want to see your five string Pipa with several other appraisers. I don't know..."

There was no need to speak, but the meaning was very clear. At this stage, old Lin was not sure whether his appraisal was accurate or not. In other words, with his ability, he was unable to appraise the golden snail ebony five string pipa. He had to borrow the help of several other appraisers.

In this regard, Luo Tian naturally had no opinion. He waved his hand lightly, "whatever."

Hearing the speech, old Lin looked happy, immediately picked up the golden snail ebony five string Pipa again, then opened a secret door behind him and walked in carefully.

Behind the secret door is a lounge for appraisers. If appraisers in the room are tired, they can go inside to have a rest.

At this time, three appraisers in their 60s were resting in the lounge. When they saw Lin coming in with a lute, they knew he had a problem and hurried around
