Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses Chapter 255 - 183 You Were Deceived4

"It’s just the appearance after treating the blue stone; this Jade Pendant is a counterfeit, and you’ve been deceived!"

As soon as Changsun Hao spoke, Yuchi imdiately stood there stunned, totally dumbfounded.

After a mont of disbelief, Yuchi sternly said, "That’s impossible."

Changsun Hao: "I wouldn’t lie to you."

Yuchi firmly: "I wouldn’t lie to you either; this jade is definitely not problematic."

This guy is really stubborn, and Changsun Hao looked at other patriarchs and said:

"I may have poor eyesight alone, you all take a look too."

"The craftsmanship on this blue stone is quite incredible; at first glance it’s hard to tell, but on closer inspection, this isn’t jade."

"President Yu, you are young, in this kind of matter you may not be able to outdo an old person like ."

Sensing Changsun Hao’s arrogance, the other four patriarchs imdiately picked up the Jade Pendant to look at it.

And as expected.

At first, it’s hard to tell, but upon closer inspection, it really is a fake.

Bai Rou, feeling sorry for Yuchi, said: "President Yu, this indeed is a counterfeit, we wouldn’t deceive you on this."

Yuchi: "...No... way?"

Bai Rou continued:

"Just like Patriarch Changsun said, this Jade Pendant is so well-faked."

"Not to ntion you, even us, if not careful, would be deceived."

"Things specially made to deceive look even more real than the genuine ones, but various deceptive craftsmanship already reveals everything."

Yuchi looked at Bai Rou in disbelief.

Bai Rou ca to his side, nodded awkwardly, and said, "That’s how it is."

"..."

The world suddenly ca crashing down, the determination on Yuchi’s face vanished instantly.

He sat on a chair in a daze, holding onto the table.

His eyes suddenly lost much of their luster, as if he suddenly saw through the world.

Bai Rou followed up asking: "Where did you purchase this? You should go back and find them; they can’t run away."

"..." Yuchi didn’t speak.

Seeing Yuchi remain silent, Changsun Hao, puzzled, said:

"President, do you believe my eyesight now?"

"Although this Jade Pendant’s craftsmanship is exquisite, done by a skilled artisan..."

"The material is poor, this Jade Pendant isn’t worth a thousand silver taels, just the craftsmanship alone, about one or two taels at most."

"So what’s going on, have you been deceived? We can help you."

No one was lying to Yuchi about this point; this Jade Pendant is typically "outcrafts the material."

The material is too poor to be anything but deceptive, concealed by intricate craftsmanship.

And this ti Yuchi...

Or, it shouldn’t be Yuchi, it should be Wei Zhe, Wei Zhe was truly deceived.

According to the craftsmanship, this piece is worth only one tael, but Wei Zhe bought it for ten taels each.

In other words, with these trinkets, Wei Zhe was made a fool.

"But ten taels are just ten taels; as long as it serves its purpose at a crucial mont, it’s fine."

Yuchi hid the smile in his heart.

This Jade Pendant was bought by his elder brother, specifically to purchase a phony.

The counterfeit is so convincing that it’s hard to tell apart with a simple glance.

The plan was to make Changsun Hao and others have a sudden realization, a feeling of enlightennt after careful inspection.

And Changsun Hao and others still didn’t know that they had taken the bait.

Most people firmly believe in the "truth" they discover themselves, which is a kind of self-affirmation.

It’s a more sophisticated "technique," or "guiding" people’s hearts.

So, the situation in this room is quite peculiar at the mont.

The crowd looked at Yuchi with puzzlent, now completely believing that he had been deceived.

And Yuchi?

His expression was unstable, filled with panic yet trying hard to maintain composure, showing none of the calm and poise he previously had.

Then suddenly.

Yuchi seed to be in great pain; he fiercely smashed the Jade Pendant onto the ground, and with a crisp crack, it shattered into pieces.

Then he heard his voice full of resentnt saying:

"I didn’t know, I really didn’t know I’d been conned."

"Originally, when I went to Jiangzhou City, I was very happy, they entertained , taking around to play."

"Little did I know, they deceived , using such things to blind my eyes."

Changsun Hao: "Jiangzhou City?"

He caught onto the key point; they only knew Yuchi went to Jiangzhou City, but what happened there, they had no idea.

One Jade Pendant possibly linking to Jiangzhou City?

"Good thing I have sharp eyes."

Changsun Hao, inwardly pleased, pressed further:

"What happened in Jiangzhou City?"

"Who was the one showing you around?"

"Tell us, we can help you analyze it."

Yuchi’s expression gradually turned more pained, sitting there dejectedly, not even touching the water Bai Rou poured for him.

But he recalled the situation at that ti with difficulty, saying:

"Here’s how it went; I went to Jiangzhou City to seek a cooperative family."

"Then, after they found out I was from Xufu Town, so influential person ca out to host ."

"They took around shopping, and we had a very pleasant chat."

In these three statents made by Yuchi, seventy percent were truths, and thirty percent were lies, thus making the truths endorse the lies.
