Chapter 232: Chapter 232: Shock, Extreme Shock

Left with no choice, Hua Buwan could only return to the pawnshop. After all, she didn’t want to make time to come back in the afternoon; that would be even more time-consuming. Holding the antiques carefully, she walked inside.

Feng Chengde came up to greet her, a trace of an awkward smile on his face. "Buwan, I’m really sorry. I didn’t expect them to arrive so quickly," he said, scratching his head.

Hua Buwan smiled slightly. "It’s fine. You meant well, Grandpa Feng. Since the experts will be here shortly, let’s just let them take a look."

Shortly after, two appraisal experts arrived at the pawnshop. Hua Buwan hadn’t expected two of them to show up at once, especially since they were renowned figures she had seen on television. They carefully examined the antiques, exchanging opinions from time to time while Hua Buwan and Feng Chengde waited nervously on the side.

Finally, the experts reached a conclusion. They couldn’t take their eyes off the ceramic bowls, chopsticks, and earthen jar that Hua Buwan had brought, their eyes revealing an unconcealable excitement.

"This... This is truly an antique from a thousand years ago!" one of the experts said, his voice trembling.

The other expert nodded repeatedly, his eyes shining. "That’s right. This is definitely a highly precious cultural relic! Its historical and artistic value is simply immeasurable!"

Hua Buwan watched quietly from the side, her heart filled with emotion. She knew what these antiques meant to the experts. They were not just objects, but witnesses to history and carriers of culture.

The two experts carefully picked up the ceramic bowls, chopsticks, and jar, meticulously examining every detail. It was as if they could look through these ancient artifacts and see how people from a millennium ago lived and created.

"The texture of this ceramic is so fine, and the craftsmanship is so exquisite. It’s simply breathtaking!" one expert praised.

"Moreover, these patterns and motifs are incredibly unique, full of artistic charm," the other added.

Hearing the experts’ evaluations, Hua Buwan felt a sense of pride in possessing such antiques. She knew they would become important materials for historical research and provide valuable clues for future generations to understand ancient culture. In this moment, time seemed to freeze. Only the experts’ passion and reverence for the antiques permeated the air. Using their professional knowledge and keen eyes, they deciphered the stories behind these ancient vessels, allowing the brilliance of history to bloom once more.

Hearing this, Hua Buwan was overjoyed. Her previous decision had not been wrong. Even if these were just ceramic items used by the commoners of Dongxuan Country, in the modern era, they were still thousand-year-old antiques. Furthermore, there were very few existing antiques from Dongxuan Country available for research today. Even everyday items used by ordinary people held significant research value. Money was secondary. Through this, she could contribute to the country’s research on Dongxuan Country and help gradually bring its image into the public eye, preventing this period of history from being lost to the river of time.

Ms. Wen Erya also hurried over to the pawnshop at the first opportunity. After a quick greeting with Hua Buwan, she completely ignored Mr. Feng Chengde and immediately huddled with the experts, staring at the ceramic antiques with shining eyes. When it came to choosing between Dongxuan Country antiques and her own husband, Ms. Wen Erya naturally favored her beloved antiques. Noticing that Mr. Feng Chengde’s smile was starting to falter, Hua Buwan finally stepped forward to chat with him and ease his disappointment.
