Shen Qianshus appraisal job was not very busy. Gubelin did appraisals for high-end jewelry, and they do not have many tasks. Shen Qianshu appraised a yellow jewel with the equipment and furrowed her eyebrows as she asked the assistant beside her a question.

Where did this batch of jewels come from?

AG!

Shen Qianshu was slightly startled. It was a batch of topaz filled with authentic and fake ones.

These were AG Jewelrys high-end jewels?

They sent this here for the sake of getting certificates to prove their authenticity, then why would they send a batch of frauds?

How many jewels did AG Jewelry send over?

The assistant replied, One 14.8-carat topaz, one 10-carat sapphire, two blue 9.39-carat diamonds, and a pink 8.66-carat diamond. Qianshu, whats wrong?

Bring me the entire batch of jewels that AG sent.

Ok.

Shen Qianshu was slightly puzzled, and she let another assistant record the accounts for the appraisal.

The assistant asked unbelievingly, Theyre fake?

Fake.

We have been appraising these jewels for three days. We didnt notice in the past two days?

Yeah, I didnt notice that they were fake. I only realized after comparing them with the inclusions.

The assistant returned quickly with the AG jewels and said, Qianshu, there is a pink diamond that Zhou Lulu had already given a certificate for.

Show me.

The assistant passed the certificate to her, and Shen Qianshu looked at the accounts. She let someone open up the pink diamond, and she looked into its inclusions.

Zhou Lulu came hurriedly with a sharp look on her face. She and Shen Qianshu were not on good terms ever since a long time ago. Shen Qianshu and she entered Gubelin around the same time, but Shen Qianshu had been promoted for a year before she got hers. To her, it was very insulting. When she was in GIA, people looked up to her. When she was in Gubelin, she was constantly put down by Shen Qianshu.

Shen Qianshu, what do you want? I had already given it an appraisal. By redoing that, do you mean that you dont believe in my skills? Is that intentional? Zhou Lulu raged. Her voice was very sharp. The many appraisers in the lab broke into two groups.

An appraiser had already done the appraisal. Not informing the appraiser before rechecking was indeed an insulting thing to do.

Shen Qianshu said calmly, When the doors close, we are all Gubelin appraisers. No matter how we fight and argue, those are personal matters. When we leave, its us against them. We are all amiable. If someone messes up and gives an appraisal that is not up to Gubelins standards, it affects everyones reputation. There will be news headlines about how unprofessional Gubelin appraisers are for not being able to identify authenticity. Im sure you dont wish to go on the hot topic list. Thatll be a huge joke to everyone.

Y-You Zhou Lulu was infuriated. Who are you to tell me that my appraisals are not up to standard? Shen Qianshu, are you the only appraiser in Gubelin?

Shen Qianshu furrowed her eyebrows and moved away from the Chelsea filter. She looked at Zhou Lulu intently and said, AG sent some topaz, and the checks were cleared in the past two days. Today, I looked into the inclusions and found no issues with them initially, but due to the difference in production sites, I checked their details and realized that they had different accounts. I washed the jewels with some chemicals, and after doing an infrared spectroscopic analysis on it, I realized that the jewel was inauthentic. I almost looked past that. Someone added chemicals onto the jewels that affected the results of the appraisal.

To this date, it was Gubelins biggest secret and largest case of fraud.

Shen Qianshu could not understand what exactly happened either.

The appraisers in Gubelin gem lab were all shocked.
