Chapter 242: Chapter 242 Bronze Square Tripod

“This gentleman is knowledgeable about antiques?”

The old man had looked at Chen Yu with a delighted surprise in his eyes.

The others also regarded him with amazement.

After all, someone able to specify the era so clearly and accurately was definitely not ordinary.

Chen Yu shrugged his shoulders, “I’ve just studied them a little!”

While they were speaking, Zhao Hai came storming in, furious.

Behind him followed several burly bodyguards, all bearing scars, evidence of a significant conflict that had just occurred.

Chen Yu ignored the man, having no desire to interact with him in any way.

Unexpectedly, the guy made his way straight to Chen Yu.

“What did you mean by what you just said? Are you suggesting that my family’s items could be fake?”

Chen Yu frowned slightly, “It’s not a matter of being fake, just that the era is incorrect!”

Zhao Hai didn’t care for such details and reached out to get physical.

Having suffered such indignity, he felt the need to reclaim some face.

“What do you mean the era is incorrect? This Fang Ding has been authenticated by world-class experts, there’s absolutely no problem with it, and now you’re saying it’s from the Northern Song Dynasty period of Emperor Shenzong? That’s absurd!”

Chen Yu exhaled a turbid breath and was about to argue when Tong Ya suddenly stepped forward.

“Zhao Hai, so nobody is allowed to comment on the Zhao family’s junk?”

Zhao Hai was momentarily startled and slowly became more respectful,

“Tong Ya? Miss Tong! I didn’t expect you to be here. Why isn’t Elder Tong with you?”

At that moment, Zhao Hai completely softened, not even daring to breathe heavily.

Although the Zhao family was also a super clan in the capital, the Tong Family was much more formidable.

“What, does Young Master Zhao wish to discuss business with my father?”

Zhao Hai laughed awkwardly, “If possible, that would be wonderful!”

Tong Ya took hold of Chen Yu’s wrist, “If you want to talk business, speaking with my husband will do. He makes decisions on over eighty percent of the Tong Family’s business matters!”

Zhao Hai’s pupils dilated suddenly; he hadn’t expected Chen Yu to be Tong Ya’s husband.

Moreover, Elder Tong had so quickly entrusted Chen Yu with the decision-making power for Tong Family business.

This meant Chen Yu was a person Elder Tong recognized!

“No wonder he is Elder Tong’s son-in-law chosen to ride the dragon; he indeed has such insight!”

After flattering him, Zhao Hai had someone take out the Fang Ding and smash it heavily onto the ground.

Chen Yu raised an eyebrow, “Young Master Zhao, why did you smash the cauldron?”

Zhao Hai snorted, “Since Mr. Chen has already appraised it, there’s no need to keep it on display here!”

Chen Yu could not help but suppress a chuckle, “Although the era is incorrect, a bronze square ding made by the Northern Song official kiln as an imitation is absolutely a rare treasure. It’s far more valuable than the original Western Zhou specimen!”

Zhao Hai’s eyes widened, and his body shook violently.

“Why didn’t you say so earlier!”

Chen Yu spread his hands, “I did say so earlier, it’s just a pity that Young Master Zhao didn’t understand what I meant.”

“You…”

Zhao Hai’s words got choked off before he could utter them.

Chen Yu’s remark clearly intended to shame Zhao Hai for his low intelligence.

However, compared to the Tong Family, the Zhao Family really was a notch below, and he didn’t dare to act rashly.
