Chapter 60: Ill Let You Have It

  Chapter Sixty I'll Let You Have It

  Outside the grand gate of Fuxuantang, Bai Ruchen smiled and sent Wang Ke out with 200,000 cash in hand. He then said: "Brother Wang, we brothers want to do business together. If you find any more treasures in the future, be sure to come to Fuxuantang. As for the price, Brother Wang, don't worry, I will definitely give you a fair and reasonable price."

  This time's transaction, Wang Ke was very satisfied in his heart. After Bai Ruochen watched the bronze bell artifact, he didn't hide or conceal it, but instead gave himself a price of 2 million with relish. This made him feel that this young man Bai Ruochen was quite good, so listening to his words, Wang Ke nodded and smiled: "You can rest assured! If I'm still lucky enough to dig up treasures in the future, I'll definitely come to Fuxuan Hall."

  Bai Ruochen nodded in satisfaction, having obtained Wang Que's promise, which gave him some hope.

  Seeing Wang Ke leave, the beautiful woman who followed Bai Ruochen out had a puzzled look in her eyes. She had never seen the boss attach so much importance to one person, and this person looked so young.

  "Boss, isn't he just a young man who came to sell musical instruments? How..." The beautiful woman asked curiously.

  Bai Ruo Chen looked at her and sighed, "I think this young man is quite extraordinary, whether it's his words and deeds or his character, I'm all fond of him. Moreover, the most important thing for our Fu Xuan Tang to open its doors for business is the problem of goods sources. I think this young man named Wang Ke is a potential stock, if we can get along with him, overall it's not a bad thing. The artifact he came to sell just now, I don't believe he was lucky enough to buy it, otherwise he wouldn't be so sure that the rusty copper bell is an artifact."

  The beautiful woman's eyes flashed with a strange light, she didn't expect her idol, the outstanding boss in front of her, to have such a high evaluation of that young man named Wang Ke.

  "Boss, then if Mr. Wang comes over next time, I'll bring him to see you!" The beautiful woman said with a light smile.

  Bai Ruo nodded and turned around to walk into the large gate of Fuxuan Hall.

  The bustling streets are filled with people coming and going, and those engaged in transactions can be seen everywhere.

  As he walked towards one of the banks on Antique Street, Wang Ke didn't notice that tens of meters away from him at the corner of the street, a thin young man who was full of energy and spirit was secretly following him.

  He reached out to touch his phone, the thin young man dialed a string of numbers. After the other party answered, he said in a low voice: "Xu Ge, that kid came out of Fuxuantang, carrying a black leather bag. I'm following him now."

  "Follow him and see where he's going? Tell me the address at any time, I'll rush over right away." Xu Jingkai's voice came from the phone, suppressing his anger.

  "Alright."

  Twenty thousand cash was deposited into the bank, Wang Ke flipped through his wallet and found that there was only over a thousand yuan in cash inside. After hesitating for a moment, he withdrew another five thousand yuan from the ATM, preparing to pick up the law enforcement equipment at any time.

  Emerald Garden residential area.

  Li Ruoxi put the books about antiques and artifacts on the table, stood up and stretched her waist comfortably, then raised her wrist to check the time.

  She didn't go out to look for a job today, but stayed in the rented house to read the books brought back by Wang Ke, and occasionally went online to check some information.

  She is a girl who is good at grasping opportunities, with an intelligent and calm mind, able to accurately judge the mature timing.

  In times of chaos, gold is king; in prosperous times, collectibles are treasured.

  She sensed a great business opportunity hidden beneath the peaceful and prosperous world from these eight simple words.

  She took out her phone and called Wang Ke, to find out that he was at the antique trading market. Li Ruoxi left her residence and headed towards the antique trading market. Yesterday, Wang Ke successfully picked up a bargain, earning nearly 200,000 yuan with a price of 500 yuan, which made her very curious, so she wanted to see how Wang Ke had found the treasure.

  "Ding ding ding......"

  A pleasant ringtone came from the bag Li Ruoxi was carrying.

  She took out her mobile phone, looked at the incoming call display, and suddenly a beautiful smile appeared on her face. After answering the phone, she said softly: "Chu Chu sister, have you gone abroad?"

  A soft laughter came from the phone: "I'm already abroad, Elisa helped me find a job here, so I've settled down. Mr. Li, are you okay? I've heard about what's been going on at the company, those heartless bastards, don't bother with them, believe me, one day they'll regret it."

  Li Ruoxi's smile on her face disappeared a lot, but she still said in a gentle tone: "Chuchu sister, from now on you don't have to call me Li Zong, I'm just an ordinary person now, you can call me Ruoxi. Don't worry, I'm fine, this little setback can't knock me down."

  "Alright, then I'll call you Ruoxi from now on. I'll be waiting for you overseas, and when you need me, just give me a call, and I'll be there in no time." The voice came through the phone once again.

  Li Ruoxi nodded with a smile, even though she was holding her phone: "No problem, Chuchu sister is my right-hand man, sooner or later I will call you back from abroad."

  They chatted for a few more sentences before hanging up the phone.

  Wang Ke, who had just walked out of the bank, had originally planned to go back, but since he knew Li Ruoxi and others would be coming over, he could only dispel that thought. He wandered around on the bustling streets, and this time, he keenly sensed that Xu Jingkai was quietly following behind him.

  Always bothering him, Wang Ke was too lazy to pay attention to him.

  And just recently, he had been deceived by him, Wang Ke could have guessed it with his toes, now Xu Jingkai must be gnashing his teeth in hatred towards himself.

  Shall we fool him again?

  As soon as the idea flashed in his mind, a sly smile appeared on his face. He turned around to look at the surrounding stalls and then walked towards a relatively large one.

  Wang Ke carefully scanned the items on the stall for a few minutes, and through his observation of the aura, he did not detect any fluctuations in the spiritual energy. Therefore, he could confirm that there were no magical instruments present at this stall. Instead, there were several items that appeared to be genuine antiques, which made him want to take a closer look himself.

  He picked up an antique from the stall that looked like a genuine product, and Wang Ke seemed to have not noticed that Xu Jingkai had quietly come to his back. He smiled at the stall owner and asked: "Boss, how much is this thing selling for? I think the color is good, you name a price! If it's not too outrageous, I'll buy it."

  The stall owner was a burly man with a rugged face, and when he saw Wang Ke arriving, he tried his best to put on a gentle expression, but that fierce face of his still looked menacing no matter how hard he tried.

  "This brother has a good eye, this is one of the few treasures on my stall. If you really want to buy it, I'll give you a reasonable price." The stall owner said with a bright smile.

  Xu Jingkai, who had quietly come up behind Wang Ke, listened to the stall owner's words and immediately walked out from behind Wang Ke, standing in front of the stall. His gaze swept over the items in Wang Ke's hands, and his face suddenly lit up with excitement. "Good stuff, really good stuff!" he exclaimed loudly. "Unfortunately, it's an unwritten rule in the antique world that if someone else has their eye on something, you have to wait for them to finish negotiating. If they don't make a deal, then I can jump in. But this piece... it's definitely a treasure, and a high-quality one at that!"

  The stall owner's face showed a look of surprise, he didn't expect someone like Cheng Yaowen to suddenly appear and lavish praise on his goods. It's worth noting that if the antiques on the stall are praised by others, it means they have taken a liking to them, and the price will skyrocket like a rocket.

  Legal instrument?

  This little brother who just came won't have made a mistake, will he?

  If it's really a magic weapon, wouldn't he have made a huge profit?

  The burly stall owner, who was delighted in his heart, laughed loudly and said: "This brother's eyes are also very strong! How did you know that this antique is one of the few Buddhist instruments on my stall? Just now I was thinking of testing this brother to see if he could tell whether it was a Buddhist instrument or not. Unexpectedly, it was recognized by you!"

  Xu Jingkai was satisfied in his heart, the stall owner's words made him feel right on target, he just wanted to inflate the price of the goods. By praising the quality of Wang Ke's antique, the boss would definitely take advantage of Wang Ke and make a big profit, besides, Xu didn't have any intention of competing with Wang Ke, believing that if Wang really bought it, he would be taken for a ride.

  "Haha, I've been in the antique business since I was young, and my family is also in the antique business, so naturally I can tell that this piece of jade is worth at least 500,000 yuan. To think that it's not even a low-grade piece! It's very likely to be a mid-grade piece, a mid-grade piece! The lowest price should be around 500,000 yuan, right?" Xu Jingkai said seriously, trying to look like an expert, with a hint of greed and regret in his eyes.

  500,000?

  The stall owner was startled by Xu Jingkai's words and then a thick layer of wild joy appeared on his rough face.

  "This brother is really sharp-eyed! No wonder, someone had said before that this was a mid-grade artifact. Originally I wanted to sell it for 800,000, but the other party refused to agree, and in the end the transaction didn't go through. Recently I've been short on money, and there's an urgent need to use money, so I'm thinking of selling it for 500,000 or 600,000."

  Wang Ke, standing beside Xu Jingkai, had a cold smile on his face. He could see that Xu Jingkai was just causing trouble, hoping that he wouldn't be able to buy the antique, or perhaps there was another meaning behind it, which was to make him waste money by paying a high price.

  He shrugged his shoulders, and Wang Ke handed the antique in his hand to Xu Jingkai, saying with a cold smile: "Boss, it seems that this is indeed a genuine artifact, and it's even a mid-tier artifact. I was thinking about whether I could get a good deal, but I didn't expect someone to recognize its value and acknowledge it. Five or six hundred thousand? I can't afford it! So I'll let this item go to this friend of mine. I remember he just said that if I hadn't snatched it first, he would have definitely bought it. A gentleman doesn't take what others love, after all."

  After finishing this speech, he stepped back with his arms around him, a schadenfreude look flashing in his eyes, ready to watch the show.

  He himself didn't buy it, and the stall owner couldn't force him to sell it either. So the glorious task of buying this "mid-grade magic tool" could only fall on Xu Jingkai's head.

  The stall owner looked a bit disappointed. He had thought that Wang Ke would be able to afford it, but now it seemed that this customer didn't have that much money after all!

  However, thinking of another customer, he looked at Xu Jingkai with a hint of eagerness and laughed: "This brother, since you've said so, and that brother is willing to bear the pain and let go, I'll sell this mid-grade artifact to you. As the saying goes: 'Meeting each other is fate.' I won't do those deceitful things either. How about this? Let's just follow your lowest price of 5 million, and we'll exchange hands - one hand with money, the other with goods."

  Xu Jingkai's face stiffened, as if a bolt of lightning had struck his head, leaving him stunned on the spot.

  Before, he only thought about wanting to calculate Wang Ke, but did not think of the consequences that Wang Ke was unwilling to buy.

  As he picked up the black plastic bag to help himself pack the "mid-grade artifact" that he had been boasting about, his heart suddenly accelerated and his face turned ugly, as if he had eaten countless dead flies.
