    In an astonishing revtion, this artwork is presented as the Mona Lisa, reimagined through the lens of traditional Chinese painting!


    Upon seeing this, Bernard Elnor felt utterly devastated.


    To him, this seemed far beyond a mere insult to intellect, didn’t it?


    Charlie himself was taken aback, ncing up at Zhang Ermao with a look of confusion.


    Then, Charlie subtly gestured with his eyes, signaling: I truly have no idea how to handle this situation—you’ll need to take the lead.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Though initially stunned by Charlie’s astronomical ims, Zhang Ermao quickly regained hisposure. As a seasoned con artist familiar with the antique market, he adapted swiftly to the unfolding scenario.


    With a confident chuckle, he turned to Bernard Elnor and dered, “Mr. Elnor, the painting I present to you today will astonish the entire realm of Eastern and Western art!”


    He continued, “Everyone knows that Leonardo da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa in 1501. However, let me reveal that this piece is not Da Vinci’s original work. It was actually created by the esteemed Chinese artist Zhao Mengfu during thete Song Dynasty and the early Yuan Dynasty.”


    Before he could finish his exnation, he pointed to the painting in Charlie’s possession and asserted, “Yes, this is the one in Master Wade’s hands! The painting by Da Vinci was merely a reinterpretation of this original, and calling it anything but giarism would be a stretch.”


    Bernard Elnor felt an overwhelming sense of despair and eximed, “Is that even possible?! Leonardo da Vinci is my idol, and his Mona Lisa is a timeless masterpiece—how could it possibly be giarized?!”


    Zhang Ermao, maintaining a serious demeanor, responded, “This clearly touches on your blind spot! I must inform you, this artwork wasmissioned by Kui Khan, the great ruler of the Yuan Dynasty, from Zhao Mengfu. The painting was likely created around 1275 AD, which predates Da Vinci by over two centuries. Isn’t it clear who copied whom?”


    “That’s absurd!” Bernard Elnor retorted angrily. “This is absolutely impossible! And look at the woman in your painting—she has a Western appearance! How could there have been a Western face in China back then? What do you say to such a ring inconsistency?”


    Unfazed, Zhang Ermao smiled and replied, “You need to be patient and let me exin! In 1275 AD, a significant event unfolded in world history. Do you know what it was?”


    Bernard Elnor, fuming, replied, “No, I don’t!”


    Zhang Ermao said with a hint of reproach, “Mr. Elnor, you can’t just focus on making money; it’s important to learn a bit about history too.”


    Ignoring Bernard Elnor’s exasperated expression, he continued, “Let me inform you, this was the year that the famous Western traveler Marco Polo arrived in China!”


    Zhang Ermao then looked at Bernard Elnor and asked, “Surely you’re familiar with ‘The Travels of Marco Polo’, right?”


    Bernard Elnor, his frustration mounting, gritted his teeth and replied, “I am! But what does that have to do with the Mona Lisa?”


    Zhang Ermao shook his head, sighing, “You are blissfully ignorant.”<fn6de7> Th? link to the orig?n of this information r?sts ?n F?ndNovel</fn6de7>


    He pressed on, “Marco Polo arrived in the Yuan capital in the summer of 1275, where he was warmly weed by the great Kui Khan.”


    “To foster cultural exchange between the East and West, Kui Khanmissioned the renowned painter Zhao Mengfu to showcase the exceptional techniques of Chinese painting to Marco Polo and his entourage.”


    “At that time, Marco Polo had a maid named Mona Lisa!”


    “Mr. Zhao Mengfu used her as the model for this painting!”


    “The entire process took about six months, from the summer of 1275 to the winter of the same year.”


    As he spoke, Zhang Ermao sighed deeply, “Kui Khan gifted this painting to Marco Polo, who treasured it and intended to bring it back to the West. Unfortunately, upon his return, he faced turmoil and ended up imprisoned, causing the painting to be lost in the chaos.”


    “Two centuriester, this masterpiece fell into the hands of Leonardo, who was profoundly inspired by it. After over a decade of dedicated imitation, he produced his famous version of the Mona Lisa!”


    “Afterpleting his painting, he ordered the original work by Zhao Mengfu to be burned. However, his servant, unable to bear such a loss, secretly preserved it, allowing it to survive through the ages!”


    With that, Zhang Ermao turned to Bernard Elnor and earnestly asked, “Mr. Elnor, do you understand now?”<h2 ss="wp-block-heading">The Amazing son inw Chapter 4116</h2><h3 ss="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"><strong></strong>
