Awakening the Daily Intelligence System - Chapter 144:

Chapter 144:115, a painting within a painting! The ‘Yellow Sparrow Painting’ is hidden within the ‘Five Horse Painting’! 1

“The money-making information just refreshed has two items this time, both of which look pretty useful, and both can directly earn big money without waiting for a time cycle. No need to rush, let’s study them one by one!” Since obtaining the Intelligence System, three or four months have already passed.

Many different things have happened during this time.

there have been joys and delights, as well as some oppressive darkness that’s hard to look back on.

Life is like a game of chess, where the universe is unpredictable.

Now, seeing the information that can directly earn big money, Lin Mo’s heart still fluctuates, but to be honest, it’s much calmer than when the Guangxu Yuanbao information was first refreshed.

The significance of the first pot of gold is, after all, irreplaceable.

After all, not long ago, Lin Mo was also a small millionaire with two or three million in hand.

Maybe his feelings will change again when the day comes that he refreshes information that can earn a few or even dozens of small targets in one go.

Lin Mo’s gaze turns to the sixth piece of information just refreshed.

[ 6, Yesterday you visited the Yongshunxiang Antique and Raw Stone Market, and obtained relevant information The “Five Horse Painting” in the Jixiang

House store conceals the “Yellow Sparrow Painting” by Zhu Da, a famous painter from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, with an estimated value of 11.84 to 15 million yuan.]

“A “Yellow Sparrow Painting” hidden inside the “Five Horse Painting”?”

“What’s this about?”

Lin Mo has some knowledge of antiques, but it’s honestly not much.

A painting hidden within another painting?

Lin Mo doesn’t recall having heard of similar news.

But that’s okay, this is the information age. If there’s anything he doesn’t understand, he can simply consult relevant experts.

And how to find experts?

That’s even simpler.

Nowadays almost every industry has experts who live stream.

With that thought in mind, Lin Mo opens up Douyin (TikTok) and looks for some of the antique appraisal live streamers he often watches.

And soon, Lin Mo notices the quite famous and currently popular bald appraiser, Mr. Hai Dong, who is also live streaming at the moment.

Clicking in, Hai Dong is in the middle of a call with his viewers.

The comment section is quite lively.

At a time like this, sending a normal comment would most likely just get lost in the crowd.

Lin Mo doesn’t dawdle; he directly recharges ten thousand yuan worth of Dou Coin.

Swipe, swipe, swipe…

After a flurry of actions, he generously sends out three Douyin No.i gifts, instantly becoming the top spender in Mr. Hai Dong’s live stream.

At this moment, the comments start flooding in with various remarks like ‘big brother is confused’.

Mr. Hai Dong, just finishing a call, is also taken aback. He touches his bald head and says with a puzzled expression, “Big brother, what’s going on? You just gave me three No.i Douyins without a word… This is an antique appraisal live stream, I only perform arts, not sell myself.”

Lin Mo cracks a smile and sends a message in the comments: “Mr. Hai Dong, this is a consultation fee. If you have time after your stream, please contact me.”

Mr. Hai Dong, no stranger to such situations, repeatedly nods and says, “Sure thing! Big brother, I’ll have my assistant follow you and will get in touch with you in about an hour.”

“Big brother, you look like a rich man, probably just dug up something real good… something that can’t be exposed yet. You gotta hang in there, big brother, don’t get taken away by the ‘uncles’ before I even end my stream.”

Mr. Hai Dong starts talking slickly, creating some joke segments with a punchline.

Lin Mo doesn’t have the time to chat idly; he minimizes Douyin to the background of his phone and then looks at the seventh piece of information.

1 7, Yesterday you passed by the Yongshunxiang Antique and Raw Stone Market and obtained relevant information Wanming Auction House will

publicly auction an emerald raw stone worth 30 million yuan at 8 PM tomorrow, with a starting bid of 2.8 million.]

This information is more direct; there’s nothing much to study, he’ll simply go bid on it when the time comes.

Afterward, Lin Mo closes the system and starts searching the internet for news about hidden paintings within other paintings, and looks for certified master appraisers on various forums to seek paid consultations.

In the antique industry, or in any industry for that matter,

common knowledge is easy to learn; you can find tons of it with Baidu.

But when you actually want to delve deeper, you’ll soon discover that those search engines can’t find anything substantial.

It’s all just superficial stuff.

To learn something genuine, you must spend money.

This is what’s commonly referred to as an industry barrier.

Of course, Lin Mo wouldn’t be foolish enough to tell strangers information about Jixiang House or the Five Horse Painting; he mainly wanted to gain a deeper understanding of this knowledge.

Setting aside everything else.

Spend a little on consultation fees today, and save that money during the bargaining process with the store owner tomorrow.

This is called monetizing knowledge!

Unfortunately, the Tianya forum is gone.

Back when Lin Mo was in college, he also used to be a regular user on Tianya forum; his strongest memory is of an antique popular science account named Yizhi Zhai’s Master.

The way the account elaborated on the knowledge, from the basics to more complex matters, could make even someone with zero knowledge of antiques understand the core content quite quickly. Compared to the more famous names nowadays like Elder Ma Weidu and Li Jianchen, there was no clear superior.

After a while,

Li Jinwen comes out of the bathroom with Lin Xiaoxiao, shouting to Lin Mo, who’s still engrossed in his phone studying antique knowledge, “Honey, we’ve finished washing up, go take your shower now—

Dad, it’s your turn to wash. The bathtub soaking is so comfortable, I didn’t want to get out!”

Lin Xiaoxiao also calls out loudly.

Lin Mo puts away his phone, stands up and laughs, “Really? Then when our home is renovated, we’ll definitely include a bathtub!”
