Hearing this voice, Lao Pan's expression suddenly changed.
Even the two strong men's eyes flickered, showing some intention of retreating, and silently put away their fists.
Jiang Muyang thought about it and turned around to look over.
I saw an old man wearing a bright red Tang suit walking over.
The old man has silver hair and a long beard. He looks at least close to seventy years old, but his back is straight, his body is very strong, his face is rosy, and he is energetic. He has his hands behind his back and walks with great energy.
, not feeling senile at all.
He was wearing a pair of reading glasses and looked somewhat academic.
"It's Mr. Gu Yan, the shopkeeper of the 'Legendary Collection'!"
"I have admired Mr. Gu for a long time, and it is such a blessing to meet him today."
"Hello, Mr. Gu, I recently got a snuff bottle from the Ming Dynasty, and I would like to ask you to help me palm it."
"..."
Many people around him greeted the old man enthusiastically.
The old man's name is Gu Yanzhi, he is a master treasure appraiser and an expert in the antique world. He is known as "the iron mouth can tell the truth". He has never misjudged anything he has appraised.
On the Imperial Street of the Tang and Song Dynasties, the largest, oldest, and most famous antique store was called "Legendary Collection". Gu Yan was the royal shopkeeper and the person who ran the store.
Gu Yanzhi has great status and reputation in the antique world. Looking across the country, there are few people who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him.
However, he didn't have any airs, he clasped his hands and responded to everyone with a smile.
Soon he came to Jiang Muyang and Lao Pan.
"Mr. Gu, how are your health these days?" Lao Pan put a smile on his face and gave a slight salute to Gu Yanzhi.
Gu Yanzhi, who had been smiling just now, suddenly straightened his face, glared at Lao Pan and said, "Xiao Pan, are you trying to break the rules of our Tang and Song imperial streets?"
The corner of Lao Pan's mouth twitched twice and said: "You are right, Mr. Gu, how could I dare to do such a thing..."
"Don't you dare? I think you are very brave." Gu Yanzhi remained true to his words.
Lao Pan's face became even more ugly.
He gritted his teeth and seemed to have gathered enough courage before he raised his head and said, "Mr. Gu, what you are doing seems to be against the rules."
Gu Yanzhi smiled calmly and said, "Haha, you want to talk to me about the rules? Okay, then you can tell me which rule I, Gu Yanzhi, broke."
Lao Pan said: "Mr. Gu, you are highly respected and highly praised by everyone in the industry. I, Lao Pan, am just a weakling, so I can't compare with you, but no matter what, we are all peers."
"There is a rule in the antique industry: don't tear down the peers!"
"You run your 'legendary collection', and I guard my small stall. We don't interfere with each other, so why do you come to tear me down and spoil my good deeds?"
Hearing this, Gu Yanzhi laughed angrily and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Pan, you keep saying that you are from the antique world, but what you are doing is ruining the reputation of the antique world and ruining the Tang and Song dynasties.
The reputation of Royal Street!”
"Old man, although I'm old and my eyesight is not working well, I can still tell whether that thing of yours is a Ru kiln or not."
"It's inappropriate for you to take a fake and sell it as a genuine one. What's more, this kid saw that it was a fake and made it clear that he wouldn't buy it. You actually planned to use force to threaten him!"
"Xiao Pan, Pan Deming! We in the Imperial Street of Tang and Song Dynasties do not want to do such forced buying and selling!"
"You're right. There are rules in the antique industry, not to undermine colleagues, but that means saying good things to each other. For example, if you sell a piece of Ru kiln and the buyer looks for me, naturally I shouldn't say
If the item is not good, it may not only cause you trouble, but also cause trouble for the buyer."
"But what is the situation now? The buyer has seen through your fake product by himself. This is none of the old man's business, right? The buyer doesn't want to spend so much money to buy a fake, and it's not the old man who persuaded me, right? How can I do that?
Is this considered breaking the rules?"
"I think you are the one who breaks the rules!"
Gu Yan's words were striking and shocking.
It was also clear, well-founded and convincing, leaving Pan Deming unable to find anything to say to refute it.
The people around me also understood what happened.
Some people applauded loudly, some praised loudly, and many people criticized Pan Deming.
From the perspective of peers, Pan Deming has ruined the atmosphere and reputation of the entire industry. As buyers, they have undoubtedly put themselves in Jiang Muyang's role, and are naturally even more angry.
Pan Deming's face suddenly turned extremely ugly.
He had also lost his mind just now and actually confronted Gu Yan. Now that he had calmed down, he was extremely upset.
In the world of antiques and treasure appraisal, Gu Yanzhi is the authority, the absolute authority. He has not failed in decades, and his reputation is extremely high!
He is also famous for his strong temper and cannot tolerate sand in his eyes.
Pan Deming was unlucky when Gu Yan came across this matter.
Originally, if he just retreated, that would be it. At most, he would not be able to get the money. When the news passed, he could "return to the world" and find other leeks.
But now that the situation has reached this level, I am afraid that the imperial streets of Tang and Song Dynasties will not be able to tolerate him.
"Mr. Gu, do you really want to kill them all?" Pan Deming took two steps closer, stared at Gu Yanzhi, and said in a slightly hoarse voice.
Gu Yan glanced at Pan Deming and lowered his voice and said: "You are selling fake goods in Tang and Song Dynasty Imperial Street, I have never interfered, right? Cats have cat lanes, dogs have dog lanes, I will not ruin your financial path.
But you went too far this time, and it has seriously affected the stability and order of the Imperial Street of the Tang and Song Dynasties. I'm sorry, this is the path you chose."
After speaking, he patted Pan Deming on the shoulder and said nothing more.
Pan Deming's shoulders suddenly slumped.
His face was ashen.
Gu Yan's attitude was obvious, he could not continue to stay in the Imperial Street of Tang and Song Dynasties.
If this is the case, there is actually no way out. After all, Dragon City is not the only place where antiques are sold like the Imperial Street of the Tang and Song Dynasties. This is just the largest and most famous one.
But given Gu Yan's status in the antique world, people in the industry will boycott Pan Deming after today's incident spreads.
In other words, there is no place for him anymore.
"Mr. Gu, can't you really be more generous?" Pan Deming understood his situation and gritted his teeth with great reluctance.
Gu Yanzhi slowly shook his head with a firm attitude.
Seeing this, Pan Deming narrowed his eyes, a flash of madness flashed in his eyes.
He winked at the two strong men.
However, those two people pretended to be stupid.
Are you kidding me?
Do you want to fuck that old man in front of everyone?
How many years of cerebral thrombosis would it take to spend the rest of your life just for a few hundred dollars?
Seeing that those two guys were unreliable, Pan Deming glared hard and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.
Destroying a person's wealth is like killing his parents!
Old guy, since you won't give me a way to live, then let's all die together!
Pan Deming's forehead was congested and he immediately lost his mind.
He stamped his right foot on the ground, and like an angry bull, he rushed towards Gu Yanshen.
"Old guy! If you mind your own business, go to hell!"
The accident happened too suddenly.
Many people around were dumbfounded, and some covered their eyes, unable to bear to look.
Despite his caring nature, he was stunned on the spot for a moment.
Although he has a strong body, he is already old after all. If Pan Deming really hits him like this, it will definitely not be a small problem.
However, just when Pan Deming was about to bump into Gu Yan, he suddenly stopped.
One second it was still rushing, but this second it stopped instantly.
The expression on his face was ferocious, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was extremely fierce.
However, he could never meet Gu Yan.
Because a hand grabbed his collar and pulled him to a stop!
