Lin Lang took the microphone with a smile, looked at the treasure holder, Ms. Huang, and asked,"Hello, treasure holder!"

"Hello expert!"

"I come from a rural area on the outskirts of Haikou, and have been farming with my husband in the countryside. I really want to know what this small golden tortoise antique collection is used for?"

Lin Lang looked at the entry prompt barrage and replied:"Judging from the appearance of the golden tortoise and the inscription on its abdomen, this is a seal."

"This seal with a turtle shape is from the Han Dynasty. Official seals of the Western Han Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty were in the shape of turtles for officials above the county level, and nose-shaped seals for officials below the county level."

"A Han Dynasty seal made of gold, representing an extraordinary status of its owner"

"In the Han Dynasty, turtles had many meanings. Small officials were not allowed to use turtle-shaped seals. Even high-ranking officials had to earn more than 2,000 dan before they could use turtle-shaped seals. In addition, the seals used by high-ranking officials were made of silver."

"The golden turtle-shaped seal can only be used after winning an award. The reason for this system is that turtles have a special meaning in ancient times."

"The turtle itself has a long lifespan, so the turtle shape implies the longevity of the person holding the seal. At the same time, turtles also have the meaning of guarding the house and blessing in ancient times. Among the four sacred beasts believed by the ancients, the incarnation of Xuanwu is based on the turtle."

"《Baopuzi. Neipian records that"Life is bound to die, but turtles and cranes live long.""

"And because the ancients used tortoise shells as currency, the tortoise also symbolizes wealth and fortune."

"Judging from the carving technique and the seal script on the abdomen, this turtle-shaped seal is authentic, and it is also the golden seal of the King of Guangling of the Eastern Han Dynasty, a priceless national treasure."

After listening to Lin Lang's appraisal and comments, the treasure holder, Ms. Huang, who was standing nearby, immediately waved her arms happily, and was even so happy that she couldn't help herself.

The audience cheered and applauded after hearing this, and they were happy for Ms. Huang, the treasure holder.

The mixed-race beauty director Marry Yang saw that Lin Lang was very handsome and photogenic on the camera monitor, and his confident and professional appraisal comments were very exciting. She was originally worried about Lin Lang, but now she had a beautiful smile with exotic style on her face.

"I was actually amazed by him!"

"I really can't believe that this pretty boy Lin Lang is really an excellent treasure appraiser. He knows a lot and has real skills."

"I was worried that this episode would be messed up by Lin Lang, but I didn't expect that the young handsome treasure appraiser would be hired, and the program pictures shot were so pleasing to the eye. This episode really made a profit!"

At the same time.

Cai Guosheng was quite shocked after hearing this.

Obviously, Cai Guosheng never expected that Lin Lang would dare to announce the results of the treasure appraisal in front of the audience and the camera without humbly asking him and Gong Jiarui, two senior predecessors, for the results of the treasure appraisal after appraising the treasure alone.

"Zhou Zhongdang's apprentice is indeed conceited. I want to see if he really has the ability to appraise treasures, or if he has lost face for his master by making a mistake in public."

After saying this, Cai Guosheng took a look at the golden tortoise seal and was immediately shocked. He thought,"It seems that Zhou Zhongdang's apprentice is not simple!"

"With my thirty years of experience as an expert in treasure appraisal, I can only tell with my own eyes that this golden seal is a genuine tortoise-shaped seal from the Eastern Han Dynasty, but I dare not conclude that this golden tortoise-shaped seal is the seal of the King of Guangling of the Eastern Han Dynasty."

"I didn’t expect that Lin Lang is so young and promising, and he reached the peak as soon as he debuted. He is better than me who has 30 years of experience in treasure appraisal. I am really slapped in the face by my juniors!"

After Cai Guosheng finished reading, he praised with some embarrassment:"My dear nephew, you have a good eye!"

"My dear nephew, you are worthy of being the last disciple of the treasure appraising master Zhou Zhongdang. The appraisal results are accurate and correct. You are really better than your master!"

Gong Jiarui was surprised to see that Lin Lang had identified the golden tortoise seal as the priceless golden seal of the King of Guangling of the Eastern Han Dynasty. He was immediately shocked and convinced by the fledgling junior Lin Lang.

After examining the golden tortoise seal, Gong Jiarui secretly admired the treasure appraisal skills of the junior Lin Lang, but also had evil thoughts. Gong Jiarui asked in a tricky way:"Ms. Huang, how did you get this golden tortoise seal?"

The treasure holder, Ms. Huang, replied truthfully:"It was dug out from under the homestead when we renovated the old house in our hometown."

Gong Jiarui even said in a moral kidnapping way:"This golden tortoise seal is very rare, and the cultural relic value is very high. Ms. Huang should hand it over to the country and make a contribution to the cultural relic protection work of the Xia Kingdom."

Lin Lang wanted to laugh after hearing this. The priceless golden seal of the King of Guangling of the Eastern Han Dynasty was handed over to the country in exchange for a banner and a reward of 500 yuan in Chinese currency. Isn't this persuading people to be fools?

After hearing this, the holder of the treasure, Ms. Huang, could not help but stop smiling.

It was obvious that Ms. Huang was very unhappy with the remarks of the treasure appraiser Gong Jiarui, who morally blackmailed her to hand it over to the country.

So Ms. Huang immediately expressed her position and declined politely, saying,"This priceless golden tortoise seal can change the fate of our family's poverty. I just came to identify the authenticity and value of the golden tortoise seal, and I have no intention of handing it over to the country."

Gong Jiarui said,"Ms. Huang, you may not understand the Cultural Relics Protection Law. Your golden tortoise seal is not an heirloom, but an unearthed cultural relic. It must be handed over to the country. It is illegal to possess it privately."

Ms. Huang was a little panicked after hearing this, and said weakly,"How can the treasure dug out from the base of our old house be illegal if it is not handed over to the country?"
