79: Li Chen and his son were completely convinced.

"I was right, wasn't I?"

Chen Kai smiled faintly. Seeing the difficult expression on Li Chen's face and the beads of sweat the size of beans on his forehead, he knew immediately that he had hit the nail on the head.

"Th-that... that doesn't mean you can just say it's fake! You have to at least point out where it's forged, right?"

Li Chen felt a bit flustered inside. When he reached out to touch it, the xianfeng treasure coin felt somewhat sticky, not like the feeling of naturally rusted patina.

However, it was possible that it had just been freshly excavated, but the probability was very low. There was already a 50% chance it was confirmed to be fake.

"What's going on? Xiao Chen?"

Just then, an old man suddenly walked slowly down from the second floor of the Pawnshop.

Chen Kai and Li Chen both looked up at the same time. The old man was wearing a plaid suit, gold-rimmed glasses, and had a white beard; one look told them he held some status in the Antique Circle.

"And these guests? Isn't this the owner of Yunshang Pavilion? What brings you to my humble abode so suddenly?"

The old man paused for a moment after seeing them, then revealed a kind smile.

"Dad! He says that this xianfeng treasure coin in our shop, which you personally inspected, is fake. How is that possible! We both looked at it."

Seeing his father arrive, Li Chen decided to stop arguing and let his father make the final judgment.

"Oh? Is that so? This young brother says that the xianfeng treasure coin we both inspected is fake?"

The old man was slightly surprised, but his expression remained calm as he walked over quickly.

Chen Kai nodded faintly and, based on the system's intelligence, repeated the two suspicious points he had just mentioned.

The old man nodded slowly, his eyes gradually becoming sharp.

"Hmm, that makes sense, but it's not enough to prove it's fake, is it?"

"There is a third point. As long as you scrape off this layer of artificial rust, you will be completely convinced."

As he spoke, Chen Kai slowly walked to the stone steps outside the shop and began to polish off the rust on the surface.

Before long, the rust on the surface had basically been scraped clean. Only then did he walk back into the shop and shake the xianfeng treasure coin in the air.

"Take a look at these rough edges yourselves. I don't need to educate you on the coin-casting process, do I?"

The old man's face changed drastically. He took the xianfeng treasure coin from Chen Kai's hand and carefully felt the rough edges with his fingertips.

This was clearly something that could only be formed by machine stamping! It hadn't even been polished smooth!

And he and his son hadn't even noticed it!

"This..."

Zheng Liu Chang's expression also changed. If it had looked genuine at first glance earlier, now it looked obviously fake at first glance!

"We at Da Sanjiang have lost! We are willing to accept the loss! Li Chen, go make the transfer, ten times the compensation!"

The old man's expression shifted, and his eyes were filled with vigilance as he looked at Chen Kai.

Where on earth did this expert come from? Something that he and his son couldn't even identify was seen through by this man at a single glance.

In terms of discernment, he had already far surpassed both of them!

"Sister Liu, is this your man? I admire him! We at Da Sanjiang have lost. Such a situation will absolutely not happen again. Please be lenient, Sister Liu! We will surely reward you heavily in the future."

The old man bowed slightly, stacking his two fists together to make a special gesture. He knew very well why Liu Yunshang had come to challenge their shop.

He hadn't expected her to have such an expert behind her; they could not afford to offend Da Sanjiang!

If this expert kept pressing the issue, they wouldn't be able to do business anymore!

Liu Yunshang was slightly stunned, then forced a calm smile.

"Hmm, easily done."

Li Chen also looked terrified. He hadn't expected this young man, who looked so ordinary, to actually have real skills!

He quickly took out his phone and bowed slightly. "I'll scan and pay you. Ten times the compensation."

Chen Kai unhurriedly displayed his QR code, watching as 51,000 arrived in his account under the respectful gazes of the others.

"Why is it 51,000?"

"Uh... this copper coin is indeed fake. I'm refunding you for the cost of the coin as well, and then... could you leave this copper coin with us? Let us study it?"

Li Chen's attitude had become somewhat humble; he bowed slightly and said with a fawning smile.

"Sure, but don't forget to post in the Antique Circle group that Da Sanjiang is inferior to Yunshang Pavilion."

Chen Kai smiled. He had finally vented his frustration and cleared a net profit of 46,000.

"No problem!"

Seeing his solemn promise, Chen Kai finally recorded a video and returned the copper coin to him.

He left with Liu Yunshang and her group.

Not long after Chen Kai left, a man wearing sunglasses pushed open the door and said arrogantly, "I'm here to challenge your shop!"

Li Chen was stunned. Why another challenge? He still said with a smile, "Welcome. If there are any fakes, we compensate ten times the value."

Half an hour later, after walking around, the man was completely dumbfounded. Did they really have no fake goods at all? Damn it!!!

...

After the three of them returned to Yunshang Pavilion, Liu Yunshang looked at the message in the large WeChat group stating that Da Sanjiang was inferior to Yunshang Pavilion, still rubbing her eyes in disbelief.

Then she immediately hugged Chen Kai. "Little brother, you are too amazing!!! You've vented my frustration again!!!"

Liu Yunshang's arms were trembling slightly with excitement. How amazing must Chen Kai be? What top-tier discernment he had.

Using 4,588 to take a gamble, he had directly made Li Chen and his father completely convinced and forced them to pay 50,000 yuan in compensation!

Zheng Liu Chang took one look and saw it was clearly genuine, and Li Chen and his father both insisted it was genuine, yet Little Brother saw it was fake at a single glance?

Li Chen and his father could claim to be the benchmark of the Jiangnan Antique Circle, yet Chen Kai had crushed them in a single glance! That's too terrifying!

"Yeah! Since when did your discernment become so damn awesome! I saw it as clearly genuine at first glance! But you convinced all three of us with the details. Awesome! I admire you!"

Zheng Liu Chang looked full of admiration. It was too awesome.

It was even more awesome than his Appraisal skills; his discernment was already on a different level compared to his.

Chen Kai chuckled. "As long as I could help you vent your frustration, Sister."

"Sister loves you to death!"

Liu Yunshang hugged him even tighter. Chen Kai only felt like he was being crazily fouled by a basketball opponent.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that Liu Yunshang slowly calmed down, though her eyes remained filled with a hint of admiration whenever she looked at Chen Kai.

The next moment, a text message suddenly arrived on Chen Kai's phone, indicating that Dongdong Express was out for delivery.

The Remote Leader phone arrived so quickly? This thing probably needs to be signed for in person, right?

"Then I'll be leaving first. You two still need to reconcile the accounts, right?"

"Hmm! Are you really not going to stay with Sister a little longer!"

"I'm heading back first. See you in a few days."

Chen Kai smiled faintly, quickly left, rode his Electric Scooter back to the Rental House, and waited quietly for Dongdong Express to deliver the package.

He sat on the edge of the bed and lit a cigarette. Before he had finished half of it, he received a call from an unknown number on his phone.

He quickly answered it. "Hello? Is this Dongdong Express? Please deliver it to my door; I'll sign for it in person."

Chen Kai rubbed his hands in excitement and checked his balance again. The balance had reached 1.32 million!
