SRGA Chapter 148 Father-in-law and Mother-in-law are shocked!

Luo Bingning said, "Dad, are you sure this is at the Grandmaster level of calligraphy?"

Luo Hongchuan nodded, "Of course. Although my calligraphy level is average, I still have the ability to distinguish."

"Great masters emphasize form, while grandmasters emphasize meaning, but the mood of grandmasters is somewhat deliberate and influenced by their state of mind."

"The mood of these characters has reached the level of being at will, which grandmasters could never achieve."

As Luo Hongchuan spoke, he leaned in closer to carefully examine it.

He was extremely fond of this piece of calligraphy.

"Dad, how much is this piece worth?" Luo Bingning asked curiously.

Luo Hongchuan said impatiently, "You're a talented woman from Peking University, you should know how much such a treasure is worth."

"If we must put a price on it... since it's a new piece, it definitely can't be compared to those historical relics."

"If there aren't many works by the grandmaster who wrote it, this piece could fetch between five to ten million on the market."

Luo Bingning exclaimed, "Can it really be that expensive?"

Luo Baichuan nodded, "Of course, because I would be willing to spend ten million to acquire this piece."

"There are probably not many in the whole country who would be willing to offer a higher price than me, so my estimate should be fairly accurate."

Lin Tian: "..."

His father-in-law's way of estimating prices was indeed unique.

But surprisingly, his estimate was quite accurate because the value of calligraphy depends on what the buyer is willing to pay.

Indeed, there were very few buyers in the entire country with more financial strength than Luo Baichuan, but they would also have to share his passion for calligraphy to spend that much money.

"Enough talk, Lin Tian, you haven't told us where this piece came from yet. I'd like to visit and pay my respects to this grandmaster."

Luo Hongchuan looked towards Lin Tian.

Lin Tian cleared his throat and said, "Uncle, there's no need to visit. He has already come to visit you."

Luo Hongchuan was stunned.

Luo Bingning chuckled, "Dad, this piece was actually written by Lin Tian himself. He knows a little bit about calligraphy."

"Lingtian, did you really write this?" Luo Hongchuan asked incredulously.

For a moment, Luo Hongchuan didn't know what to say.

There hadn't been a calligraphy grandmaster for centuries.

If Lin Tian was a calligraphy grandmaster, he would surely be remembered in history. But how could Lin Tian possibly be a calligraphy grandmaster?

Luo Hongchuan took a deep breath, "I know you probably wouldn't joke about something like this."

"But how is that possible?"

"Lin Tian, I had someone investigate you before. Your family background and other aspects are just ordinary."

Lin Tian raised his hand.

His powerful internal force pulled an apple from the coffee table into his hand.

*Crunch!*

Lin Tian took a bite of the apple.

"Uncle, maybe the people you hired weren't specialized enough. Actually, I also have grandmaster-level skills in martial arts."

Luo Hongchuan, Xu Yin, and the others stared at Lin Tian in astonishment.

"Lin Tian, are you Grandmaster Lin?" Xu Yin reacted with shock.

Lin Tian smiled, "Uncle and Auntie, indeed I am Masked Hero, Ice Condensation thought of giving you a surprise."

Luo Hongchuan and Xu Yin were stunned.

Lin Tian turned out to be Masked Hero, Grandmaster Lin.

Grandmaster Lin excelled in erhu, guqin, suona, martial arts, and was rumored to be a grandmaster in Feng Shui as well.

"Lin Tian, is there anything else you can do?" Luo Hongchuan asked curiously.

"Dad, I know, I know," Luo Bingning hurriedly interjected, "Tian Ge is quite skilled in medicine, he's also reached grandmaster level in that. He also knows nine foreign languages."

"Oh, and he's quite skilled in disguise too."

Luo Hongchuan, Xu Yin, and the others were dumbfounded.

They had thought their son-in-law was just ordinary, but now they realized that Lin Tian's "ordinary" was quite extraordinary.

"What a pity, why didn't we hit the jackpot with our in-laws?" Lin Tian thought to himself.

The treasure chest on top of Luo Bingning's head had indeed reached the silver level. He wondered if it would turn to gold tonight.

"Lin Tian, is there anything else you can do?" Luo Hongchuan asked.

Xu Yin shook her head, "Honey, don't ask anymore. I can barely remember what was just revealed."

"Let's keep some secrets from Lin Tian."

Lin Tian smiled, "Most of what I can do, Ice Condensation already knows. There aren't many secrets left undisclosed."

"I still have a lot to learn in the future."

Luo Bingning said, "Mom and Dad, please don't talk about this outside. Having a layer of disguise is much safer for Lin Tian."

"He has Grandmaster Lin behind him now. Without knowing Grandmaster Lin's identity, enemies wouldn't dare to easily confront him."

Luo Hongchuan and the others nodded.

They understood this reasoning.

Lin Tian smiled and said, "I quite like my life now. If my identity were exposed, I might need to disguise myself every time I go out."

"Auntie, you should take this pill. It can make you look a few years younger. If you take one every year, you'll be about the same age as you are now when you're sixty."

Xu Yin stared at Lin Tian in astonishment.

"Mom, it's true," Luo Bingning giggled.

"Lin Tian's parents took one of these pills when they came over, and Auntie looked five or six years younger overnight."

Xu Yin was extremely excited.

The temptation of this pill was too strong for women.

Luo Hongchuan asked, "Lin Tian, does it make you look younger on the outside, or does your body actually become younger?"

Lin Tian smiled, "It actually makes your body younger, but each pill can only maintain the effect for a year."

Luo Hongchuan exclaimed, "Would it work for elderly people nearing the end of their lives?"

Lin Tian nodded.

"It works, but the effect might be less noticeable."

Luo Hongchuan marveled, "So it's not just about preserving youth, it's essentially an elixir of life for the elderly."

"As long as the effect is confirmed, it wouldn't be surprising if one pill fetched a billion dollars at an international auction house."

"You must keep the formula confidential."

Lin Tian smiled, "Whether the formula is kept confidential doesn't matter. Even if it were made public, others wouldn't be able to produce it."

Luo Hongchuan said, "If the raw materials are rare, you'd better stock up on them, otherwise, the prices of raw materials might skyrocket."

Lin Tian nodded.

"I'll stock up on some. But I don't plan to produce too much. Speculating on raw materials might end up causing losses."

Luo Hongchuan laughed, "Only you, as a martial arts grandmaster, have the confidence to say that. It's a very wise choice to gradually expose your abilities with martial arts grandmaster strength."

"Many geniuses die before they've fully grown."

Thinking of this, Luo Hongchuan remembered Zheng Xishan's previous phone call.

Knowing about Lin Tian's situation, he realized he might have misunderstood Zheng Xishan. Perhaps Zheng Xishan didn't want to form an alliance.

"Lin Tian, have you had any contact with the Zheng family?" Luo Hongchuan asked.

Lin Tian nodded, "The Zheng family, led by Zheng Guangyao, was rude to my parents before because they thought they had money."

"I made the Zheng family compensate with thirty billion."

Luo Hongchuan: "..."

Xu Yin: "..."

Their son-in-law was too formidable.

Thirty billion wasn't thirty thousand.
