Chapter 460 - Chapter 460: Lord Tiger (2/2)

Zhang Hu’s body stiffened slightly.

“`

She was a worldly person, ordinary treasures simply could not catch her eye, but the items that Chen Yu brought over in the case, just the artifacts from the Han Dynasty numbered over a hundred.

Among them were not only local governors and country officials’ private items, but even things from the imperial palace.

Every item was exquisitely delicate, yet invaluable.

Zhang Hu couldn’t help but crouch down and casually pick up a jade hook.

“Early Western Han dynasty, a product of the Chu King, this item is already rare to find. If placed outside, it would start at no less than thirty million. Are you sure you want to sell it here?”

Chen Yu smiled, “The auction process is too complicated, and I have too many items on hand. If I were to put all of them up for auction, I’m afraid it would take hundreds of years to sell everything.”

Zhang Hu’s beautiful eyes widened slightly, she of course understood what Chen Yu meant.

No matter who it was, if they had too many items, they would not go to an auction house but would look for a private trade market like hers.

Every day, tens of thousands of items went out from here. She had to have her own channels to sell so many items at once.

Chen Yu was interested in her channels.

“You’re a straightforward guy. Since that’s the case, I won’t beat around the bush! I’ll take all the items at sixty percent of the market price, you’ve got to let me make some profit, right?”

Chen Yu did a rough calculation in his mind.

The price Zhang Hu offered was fairly reasonable, after all, they still had to manage the channels, smooth things over up and down, and even go to specialized organizations for authentication.

All in all, they were going for thin profit margins but high volume.

“Alright,” Chen Yu stood up. “There’s a truck outside, its contents are all part of today’s deal. Please have someone unload it, Zhang Hu.”

Zhang Hu was somewhat surprised; she hadn’t expected Chen Yu to bring so many items.

“Alright, I’ll send people over right now! Just, I wonder if you could join me for a drink?”

Chen Yu chuckled, “Are you asking me to join you for milk tea?”

The witty tone also made Zhang Hu laugh.

“If there’s anything you can’t eat, then milk tea it is!”

The two walked into a shop nearby, one after the other.

Zhang Hu and Li Si, on the other hand, waited outside, not even daring to breathe heavily.

Having traded here so many times, they naturally knew of Zhang Hu’s reputation, but they had never dreamed that Zhang Hu was actually a woman.

What surprised them even more was that Chen Yu could find Zhang Hu directly on his first trade here.

It seemed Zhang Hu’s men only saw them as Chen Yu’s subordinates, promptly pulling them aside to drink outside.

In a room of moderate size, Chen Yu and Zhang Hu sat facing each other, with two cups of specially made milk tea on the table.

Chen Yu quickly scanned the tea with his system and found that it contained over twenty types of medicinal herbs, and some of the fruits in it were even ones he had never seen before.

Zhang Hu picked up the milk tea and took a sip with great enjoyment.

“Have a taste. In your cup, I’ve added a few special ingredients.”

As she spoke, the corners of Zhang Hu’s eyes seemed somewhat mischievous.

Anyone else might suspect that the milk tea was poisoned.

Chen Yu just laughed softly, removed the lid, and took a big gulp.

“Indeed, not bad, this cup alone seems like it could keep one alert and clear-headed for several days. Zhang Hu, do you maintain such a perfect figure because you drink this?”
