Chapter 19: The Painting's Appraisal

"What!"

Except for Xu Yang, everyone else was shocked. 

The others didn't believe that it was possible because Gao Chengwen had already appraised it, and it was a forgery. Moreover, Guo Shan bought it for 500 yuan from a street vendor. They were shocked to find it genuine.

"Mr. Tang, did you make a mistake? This can't be genuine. I might not be as knowledgeable in antiques as you, but I can see that the painting is very blurry. It's obviously a forgery," said Gao Chengwen. 

Gao Chengwen refused to believe that it was genuine and had very valid reasons for his disbelief, the painting was blurry and couldn't possibly be genuine. He had seen genuine works by Wu Daozi just last year. Those were incredibly clear compared to this one.

"I didn't make a mistake," Tang Zhengqi said. "Mr. Gao, your store has been open for more than ten years. If a treasure like this comes to your door, and you can't recognize it, it means your skills have declined."
