Urban Treasure Appraisal: I Rely on Ancient Books to Find Treasures That Have Been Missing for Thousands of Years

Lin Yan, a talented cultural scholar who is in debt after graduation and whose family is in ruins, can only make a living by running a street vendor in Tianguang Market in the early morning. He is ridiculed by his peers as a loser with no academic qualifications. No one knows that he has inherited the ancient book "Ji Gu Lu Zhu" since he was a child and awakened his ability to understand history - five thousand years of official and unofficial history, crafts of the past dynasties, and lost maps are all familiar by heart. Where others see rags, he sees a national treasure! A broken pottery bowl covered with dirt is a lost folk sacrificial vessel from the Warring States Period. I bought it for 25 yuan and sold it for 180,000 yuan; The old wooden box used to cushion the table legs in a farmer's house contained an orphan scroll written during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty. It was collected for two hundred yuan, which shocked the entire cultural and museum world; The damaged bronze Buddha piled up in the scrap yard was a sacrificial vessel for the royal family of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. No one could identify it except him. No system, no perspective, purely relying on hard-core official historical knowledge to reduce dimensionality! From a street vendor to a private collector, from the Tianguang Market in the market to a national-level auction house, Lin Yan relied on his keen eyes to collect all the treasures in the world, tear apart the industry's shady industry, recover lost national treasures, and complete the thousand-year history of China.
