Chapter 10

If it had the power, it must be an authentic one . Gu Ning was happy, but didn’t show her happiness on her face .

Gu Ning walked to the stand . The stand owner ignored her because she was a teenage girl in an ordinary clothing, and seemed poor .

Gu Ning didn’t care though . She pointed directly at the bracelet, “How much is this one, please?”

The stand owner took a glance at the bracelet, then frowned with disdain .

Why? Because in his eye, this bracelet was fake . He even intended to throw it away .

But since there was a buyer for it, he opened his mouth, ” 50 yuan . ”

Fifty yuan were merely much, but it was still a lot for Gu Ning . However, Gu Ning wasn’t willing to miss any chance to win money .

She didn’t want to show her real intention at the very beginning, so she bargained, “Could you please sell it for a cheaper price? I’m just a student with less money . ”

“Then 40 yuan, that’s all . ” The stand owner agreed . He still believed the bracelet was a worthless junk .

Gu Ning pretended to hesitate for a second, then said, “Great, I’ll take it . ”

Then she gave money to the stand owner .

The stand owner took the money and gave the bracelet to Gu Ning .

Gu Ning went straight to the appraisal center with the bracelet afterwards .

She went to the appraisal center not to identify the bracelet, but for money . Only with money that she was able to do other things .

There was a monthly large fair in the antique market with many visitors . In a normal day, many visitors would come and make deals, but the price wouldn’t be high because dealers were not adequate .

When Gu Ning arrived at the appraisal center, there was already someone in there to identify antiques . Bystanders stood around . Someone were here just for fun, while some were here for the results . If there was a real one, they would bid .

Those appraisers were all experienced, and the appraisal center had its own rules . If it was a fake one, they would not charge for it . If it was a real one, then you need to pay for the service . If the antique was sold on-site, the service price would be higher .

The rules were quite acceptable .

Gu Ning walked to the table of appraisal . There was a appraiser in the middle of identification . It was a delicate snuff bottle, and looked like an authentic one .

Gu Ning used her Jade eyes . She didn’t see any fog around it . It was fake .

“It’s fake . ” It only took the appraiser around 10 minutes to have the result .

“What? It’s fake?” A male voice sounded in shock among the crowd . The man wore an astonished face, “It’s impossible! How could it be fake!”

“Are you questioning me now?” The appraiser wasn’t happy to be questioned .

The man explained at once, “No, no, but it’s an heirloom from my grandpa to my father and to me . I can’t accept it’s fake . ”

The rest of the people in the center showed their sympathy .



“Bro, even if it’s an heirloom, it could be fake . ”

“True!”

“Probably your grandfather had made a mistake . It’s quite normal . ”

Others echoed .

The man wore a displeased face . He left swiftly with his heirloom . He had believed it must be a real antique, and wanted to sell it, but to his surprise, it was fake .


Then, there were more fake ones, but no one felt disappointed because the owners didn’t pay much for their “antiques” .

“Hi, could you please identify this bracelet for me?” It was Gu Ning’s turn . She handed over the bracelet she had just bought .

Gu Ning’s appearance raised discussion among the crowd .

“Gee, where did she get this dirty thing? It’s so ugly . ”

“This little girl must be crazy about money . It’s apparently fake . ”

Others echoed .

Gu Ning ignored all of them .  Let’s see  . She thought to herself .



Though the appraiser didn’t believe it was real neither, he did his work though .

When he took the dusty bracelet over, he almost hated it at the first look . However, while he was cleaning the stains by a napkin, the real color of the bracelet appeared .

It was white and blue in random order, and it was made of china .

The appraiser frowned a little . He thought it was merely a modern artwork . In the ancient time, no one would use china to make bracelet .

But since he had begun, he decided to finish his work .

Then, he kept on cleaning the bracelet . After a while, he felt something was unusual .

Others asked immediately .

“What happened?”

“Is it real?”

The appraiser stayed silent, focusing on his work . Before long, the bracelet was clean and shiny .

Everyone now discovered that the bracelet was made of china . All of them were assured that it must be fake, because no one had ever heard a china bracelet could be made in the ancient time . It must be a modern artwork .

While the appraiser thought otherwise . He now was astonished and super excited .



“The china is blue and white porcelain from Ming and Qing Dynasty . ” He suddenly said .

“What?”

“Really?”

Everyone was shocked .

Blue and white porcelain from Ming and Qing Dynasty . Then, it was a real one?

Though blue and white porcelain in Ming and Qing Dynasty wasn’t as expensive as in Yuan or Tang Dynasty, it wasn’t cheap at all .

All of a sudden, everyone looked at Gu Ning in jealousy . Instead, Gu Ning was as calm as usual, which made people wonder that she had known it already .

Actually, Gu Ning only knew it was real, but had no idea what it was exactly .

“It is blue and white porcelain from Ming and Qing Dynasty . I suppose the original one is broken, and somebody has made it into a bracelet . ” Or, no one would intentionally break a valuable blue and white porcelain to make a bracelet .

“Hey young girl, where did you get this bracelet?” someone asked .

“I just bought it from a normal stand,” Gu Ning told the truth .

“What? You picked it up by accident? What a lucky girl!”

Everyone agreed .

“Young girl, do you want to sell it? I’ll give you 30 thousand . ” A middle-aged man in a suit made a bid without any delay .
