Unexpectedly, the shop owner suddenly pointed at the broken blue and white porcelain on the ground and said that it was the real thing. He asked for a sky-high price of 68,000 yuan!

This shocked the two junior sisters, but after they came back to their senses, they checked the fragments on the ground.

They specialized in identifying antiques, especially blue and white porcelain. The two girls had studied many books in the past.

Even if it wasn’t 100% correct, they could still distinguish it.

After careful examination, they were certain that the blue and white porcelain in the shop owner’s hand was an old replica. Moreover, it was indeed placed in the counterfeit area for people to admire and sell as souvenirs. The other party was clearly trying to extort them.

Hence, they persuaded the shop owner not to bully them for not being professionals in the field.

In the end, the shop owner insisted that his item was the real thing and said that it was only temporarily left in the counterfeit area.

Both sides were reasonable, and it immediately attracted many people’s attention.

That was why this scene happened.

While Xu Jiajia was listening carefully, the stall owner began to carefully pick up the blue and white porcelain fragments on the ground.

“This is the real thing from the official kiln during the Qianlong era. There’s

one less piece in this world for every piece I throw. I’m only asking for 68,000 yuan because you’re students and I didn’t argue with you. You actually don’t know what’s good for you and say that I’m selling fake goods?”

The stall owner looked like he was heartbroken. It almost made people think that it was not some blue and white porcelain that had shattered. It was like the urn of his family’s elders.

“What happened?”

At this moment, the students of the ancient relics club who were strolling nearby also gathered around. After knowing what had happened, everyone naturally chose to stand on their side.

Moreover, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the stall owner was deliberately setting up a trap to extort people.

A male student with glasses argued, “If you say it’s the real thing, then it’s the real thing? If it’s real, would you still put it in the counterfeit area?”

As soon as these words were spoken, the public opinion of the surrounding onlookers immediately changed and they nodded to themselves.

“That’s right. The real ones will be treasured well. This shop owner is obviously extorting people by placing it in the counterfeit area.”

“That’s right, that’s right. These shopkeepers are like this. They want to rip off foreigners.”

“This is too much. Now, they don’t even let the students off!”

Seeing that the public opinion was disadvantageous to him, the shop owner hurriedly gave the cook behind him a look. The other party immediately understood and immediately replied in a low voice, “I’ll go find Master Gu!”

The shop owner nodded and looked at the crowd. He argued, “Who said that it’s fake in the counterfeit area? Didn’t I say that? I placed it here to make room! Who knew that it would be shattered as soon as it was placed there?

“Moreover, do you know what blue and white porcelain is? Do you know what antiques are? I’ve been running this shop for decades. Will I ruin my reputation for tens of thousands of yuan?”

After the shop owner’s sharp sophistry, the passers-by immediately felt that what the shop owner said was not unreasonable.

For a moment, the two sides fell into a stalemate again.

“Can you not block the road? Why are you making a fuss? If you make way, it’ll be easier for us to do business.’

At this moment, many vendors nearby were also signaling everyone not to cause a traffic jam.

Xu Jiajia looked around. Many tourists chose to ignore them. They shook their heads and started to leave. This time, Xu Jiajia and the others almost had to face this mean-looking stall owner alone.

Xu Jiajia hurriedly signaled another junior beside her to make a call.

“Hey, Teacher Yu, we encountered a little trouble on the third street of the antique market. There’s a stall owner…”

Not long after, Teacher Yu brought more than ten students to the stall owner’s

UUUI.

Seeing that Teacher Yu had arrived, the few of them secretly heaved a sigh of relief.

They thought to themself that with a teacher coming out to support them and Teacher Yu being an expert in cultural relic restoration, he should be able to let this stall owner know how powerful he was, right?

“What’s going on? Do you have to bully a group of students?”

As expected, as a teacher, Teacher Yu was naturally not afraid in the face of danger and spoke righteously.

The stall owner and the two helpers behind him looked at each other and smiled. “You’re their master? Just in time, you can be the judge..

The stall owner recounted what had happened truthfully and continued, “Your student insisted that I sold fake goods. Not only did they ruin my business, but they also severely damaged my reputation. Tell me, who was at fault?”

Upon hearing this, Teacher Yu roughly understood that his students had broken someone’s things.

Hence, Teacher Yu suggested to see if the blue and white porcelain was real or fake. He said that he was an expert in this area. Regardless of whether it was real or fake, he would know at a glance.

An imperceptible smile appeared on the stall owner’s lips. Then, he asked his companion behind him to bring over the blue and white porcelain fragments that he had organized earlier.

Teacher Yu put on his glasses and observed carefully. He shook his head and glanced at his student.

Seeing that he did not speak for a long time, the stall owner urged, “Do you know how to distinguish it? Is my blue and white porcelain from the Qianlong era fake?”

All the students’ gazes landed on Teacher Yu. The female students at the scene looked even more anxious, hoping that the teacher would uphold justice for them.

Unexpectedly, Teacher Yu muttered after a moment of thought, “It’s true. It’s indeed a blue and white porcelain produced by an official kiln during the Qianlong era.”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.

It was the real thing?

How was this possible?

The female student still wanted to defend herself, but she was stopped by Xu Jiajia. Then, she whispered in her ear, “Don’t. His buddy has already swapped the items..
