166: Chapter 166: The Arrogant Genius

Wufu had taken on a commission that, within Hundred Treasures Silver Building, was known by everyone, from shop assistants to craftsn, and given her gender and such a young age, most people had no confidence in her.

Especially the craftsn didn’t take her seriously at all, and were just waiting to see a big joke unfold.

When Shopkeeper Lin initially employed Wufu, he had faced a lot of pressure, and he was aware that his subordinates were dissatisfied and scornful.

Now that Wufu had not let him down and had carved such fine jade ware, whether it was to prove he had made the right choice or to show off, there was no reason to hide it.

Therefore, when that Chicken Blood Seal appeared before all the craftsn, the whole room fell silent.

“This, this is impossible,” an old man who could be Wufu’s grandpa exclaid.

The crowd also ca to their senses.

“Shopkeeper Lin, did she really carve this?” soone asked, pointing at Wufu with a face full of disbelief.

“Impossible!” the elder stepped forward excitedly, shouting, “How could she carve jade ware of this quality without decades of skill?”

Wufu was just yawning when she heard this and glanced at the old man.

The others also felt sothing was off and chid in, “That’s right, she’s just a little girl, how could she possibly have carved it?”

Everyone present was an industry insider and had a discerning eye for quality.

The Pixiu seal in front of them, whether it was the cutting or the carving, was top quality.

How could one carve sothing like this without experience?

It wasn’t just her, a young girl; even these old craftsn who had been imrsed in the trade didn’t have such skills.

So, it was no wonder they couldn’t believe it; it was simply unbelievable.

Zhu Zijun sighed inwardly.

If he hadn’t been paying close attention to Wufu’s activities, just suddenly seeing this, he himself wouldn’t dare believe that the seal was Wufu’s work.

But facts were facts, undeniable.

While everyone reacted strongly, Shopkeeper Lin didn’t get angry; instead, he felt gratified and proud, thinking to himself how everyone usually looked down on others with conceit, thinking they were unrivaled under the heavens.

Now, weren’t they getting a slap in the face?

“Miss Wufu has been working in our Hundred Treasures Silver Building for so ti now, and everyone has been watching.

I have no need to deceive you all, as there’s no benefit in it.

This Chicken Blood Seal was indeed carved by Miss Wufu’s own hands,” said Shopkeeper Lin.

“Craftsman Zhu is probably the clearest on this.”

When Zhu Zijun, the nad individual, was asked, his expression complex, he nodded and said, “Indeed, it is that piece of chicken blood I accidentally let slip, and the Pixiu seal is definitely the handiwork of Miss Wufu.”

“How is that possible?

She’s just a child.

How could this be?”

“Elder Zhong is right, this, this…”

Wufu yawned again and said, “What’s so impossible about that?

Talents erge in every generation, and having a few geniuses is not strange.

Since ancient tis, there have been three-year-old prodigies, so why can’t there be a carving prodigy in her teens like ?”

So brazenly self-praising, they had seen people boast, but never soone so shalessly self-congratulatory.

The crowd rolled their eyes.

“If it truly is your carving, girl, who taught you?” the elder known as Elder Zhong asked again.

This level of craftsmanship was rather rare.

He was basically familiar with all the renowned masters alive, and even the works left behind by deceased Great Grandmasters he had seen, but who was her teacher?

Wufu shrugged with a smile, “Old sir, there’s no need to ntion my teacher.

As you know, I am the prodigy.

And this seal even contains my hidden signature.”

Having said that, she pointed to a certain spot on the seal, and everyone was stunned.

Without her ntioning it, they wouldn’t have noticed the signature at all.

This was indeed her work.

Seeing everyone’s expressions, Wufu didn’t say more.

She turned around and went back to her workshop to pack up her things, ready to return ho.
