Chapter 549 Playing at Expertise
The young lady was startled and hastily stepped back several times, repeatedly bowing and apologizing.
“I’m sorry, Professor Wang, I was just too excited! This object has been with us for many years and now that it’s finally being deciphered, I wanted to take a picture of the inscription to study it closely.”
“What’s all this nonsense?” Professor Wang looked coldly at the young lady, then turned his head toward Chen Yu.
“Where did you come from, you greenhorn? Do you know that dozens of experts have been studying this jar for decades without figuring out its use? Do you think you can see through it at a glance? Or do you believe your experience surpasses that of all of us seasoned experts?”
Chen Yu didn’t want to waste words with this guy and simply took out a metallic card.
“I’m just here for a visit, and what I said was merely a suggestion!”
Professor Wang looked at the card in Chen Yu’s hand with disdain.
“Although Lin Chuhe is one of the heads of Core Tower, he doesn’t have the authority to manage our affairs on this floor! You may visit here, but don’t spout nonsense, or I have the right to kick you out.”
Chen Yu raised an eyebrow, scanned the other’s brain information, and discovered that the fellow didn’t have much in his head; moreover, his abilities were among the lower echelons within the entire Core Tower.
He wasn’t even a natural-born superpower user.
He was merely bossing people around by virtue of his status as one of the senior members.
Any of the young people on this floor could outdo this old man in terms of appraisal ability by a factor of several times.
Not wanting to argue with him further, Chen Yu put away his card and walked toward another counter.
Professor Wang didn’t say much else, snorted coldly, and left on his own.
The young lady from before pursed her lips at Professor Wang’s retreating back, then quickly caught up to Chen Yu.
“Mister, did you notice anything else about that jar?”
Chen Yu immediately cast an approving glance her way. This young lady had a deep, soulful passion for antiques.
“Your name is Wu Aiai, right?”
The young lady looked up, full of confusion.
“I don’t think I’ve told you my name!”
Chen Yu raised a finger to his temple.
“I’m also a born superpower user who can hear the voices in people’s minds.”
Wu Aiai wasn’t the slightest bit surprised; after all, Core Tower was filled with natural-born superpower users.
“So that’s it. No wonder Mr. Lin handed you his card!”
Chen Yu turned around and took a small incense burner from a nearby shelf.
“I took a quick look earlier, and there are a total of a dozen or so items that match up with that jar, but they’ve been dispersed across different shelves. By researching these objects together, we can determine their exact age and the historical events they’re associated with.”
Wu Aiai quickly took the incense burner from Chen Yu’s hands.
“This little thing is related to that jar?”
Chen Yu nodded.
“If I’m not mistaken, this should be an incense burner used to worship the heavens during Yue Fei’s northern campaigns, and the main object for the ceremony was that jar!”
Being a genius in this field, Wu Aiai immediately understood as soon as Chen Yu explained.
