Chapter 170 – I’ll Only Give You Five Hundred (1/2)
On the next day, the three of us arrived at Lu Baoqiang punctually. The person that went with us was an expert from a reputed appraisal center.
“Mr. Lu, this is Mr. Yang, an expert from Yanjing city’s XX Antique Store,” I said to Lu Baoqiang.
“Hello, Mr. Yang!” Lu Baoqiang was someone belonging to the upper class, so he naturally heard of Mr. Yang’s name previously.
“Okay, Mr. Lu, can you take out the fragments for Mr. Yang to appraise it?” I asked.
“Sure, sure! Naturally!” Lu Baoqiang said calmly, showing a completely different expression from the vigilance one the previous day.
Lu Baoqiang took the box out and placed it in front of us. Mr. Yang took out his magnifying glass, and started to carefully examine the fragments.
Meanwhile, Lu Baoqiang acted naturally as if he was completely confident.
On the other hand, Xu Er’s face displayed his nervousness and unease.
“Mr. Yang, how is it?” Lu Baoqiang asked with a smile.
“It’s real! This is a vase used by officials during the Qing Dynasty!” Mr. Yang put down his magnifying glass and said confidently.
“Mr. Yang, are you sure?” I intentionally asked.
“Yes, I’m sure!” Mr. Yang nodded.
“Haha! How is it? I didn’t lie to you guys, right? I told you that there’s no need for the appraisal!” Lu Baoqiang smiled, while his heart bled! That was a vase worth a fortune! But, it is worth it if he could get a flower-like beauty in return!
“Oh, since it’s like this, we should fulfill our end of the promise…” I received the box with the fragments and took a look before turning to Lu Baoqiang. “However, I coincidentally received a video, I wonder if Mr. Yang is interested?”
“Video? What video? What do you mean?” Lu Baoqiang asked in confusion.
“Hehe, this video is naturally related to you, Mr. Lu. Of course, it is also related to this vase! How is it? Mr. Lu, don’t you want to have a look!?” I asked with a smile that wasn’t completely like a smile.
“Heh! What kind of tricks do you want to play? Mr. Yang aready appraised the fragments of the vase, what use is a video?” Lu Baoqiang said in dissatisfaction.
“This video naturally has its use, it might even be the key! Du Xiaowei, bring the notebook over!” I said to Du Xiaowei.
“Okay!” Du Xiaowei answered, then took out a laptop from his backpack and placed it onto the tea table.
“Just what are you guys doing! I’m telling you, my time is very valuable, I have an important meeting to get to later! A single minute is worth several thousand yuan, can you afford to pay that much!” Lu Baoqiang said unhappily.
“Don’t be so anxious. Mr. Lu, you’ll understand after we watch it together, why be in such a hurry?” I said.
“Heh! Since Xu Xueyun is already mine, what use is you doing all this!” Lu Baoqiang snorted.
“Perhaps not, right?” I pressed play and said coldly to Lu Baoqiang.
“What did you say…!?” Lu Baoqiang was completely stunned before he finished!
That was because the person on the screen was him! And the background was this very living room!
In the video, Lu Baoqiang picked up the vase and smashed it onto the floor!
