Chapter 1611: There’s Such a Good Thing?
Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
There was nothing special about the middle-aged American couple.
The man was dressed very ordinarily, and his appearance was also very ordinary. Even the luggage he used was extremely ordinary.
But in the middle-aged man’s hand was a folding fan that attracted Ye Feng’s attention.
Ye Feng did not even need to activate the system’s deep navigation, he could tell that this folding fan was not ordinary.
Just as he expected, a message popped up after he activated the system’s navigation.
[Tang Yin’s folding fan, authentic. The fan surface is “Talking about the Ancient Times at the River Pavilion.” It’s worth about 130 million.]
Ye Feng’s eyes moved again.
Tang Yin was Tang Bohu. In China, it could be said that everyone knew him.
The fan was made by one of the Four Great Talents of Jiangnan.
The paintings rarely indicated the time of creation, and there was no pattern. It was also difficult to estimate the time of painting, but each of them was priceless.
Tang Bohu’s subjects included landscape painting, figure painting, freehand painting of flowers and birds, and so on. His paintings broke the sectarian-like view and incorporated the landscape paintings of the Northern and Southern Painting Academies and the Yuan Dynasty literati. He also extensively involved influences from masters of the Northern Song Dynasty, such as Li Cheng, Fan Kuan, and others. He integrated them into one and formed his own school. He had super realistic skills, and a unique charm, and his work was both free and realistic.
This “Talking about the Ancient Times at the River Pavilion” was one of his representative works.
In 2013, it was sold at a sky-high price of more than 71 million in an auction in Beijing.
Over the years, his calligraphy and paintings have become more and more popular in the antique market. The system’s stock price of 130 million was probably a little conservative.
Thinking of this, when Ye Feng looked at the American middle-aged couple, his eyes became even more heated.
Although he did not know how this folding fan fell into the hands of this middle-aged couple, it did not stop him from being interested in this folding fan.
Just as his thoughts were wandering, a scene that made him drop his jaw appeared.
When the middle-aged couple saw that there was no one around Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s luggage, they looked around while dragging their luggage over.
After making sure that no one noticed their actions.
When he pa.s.sed by Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s luggage, he dragged it along with him.
“???”
Ye Feng was stunned.
He didn’t expect that there would be such a simple and violent theft now.
Moreover, the culprits were a middle-aged American couple holding a folding fan worth hundreds of millions.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was getting anxious.
Seeing that someone dared to steal her suitcase, she immediately chased after them.
Ye Feng pulled her. “Don’t be anxious.”
“Let me play with them!”
As he spoke, he looked around.
After finding a few surveillance cameras and recording their locations, he took out his phone and started filming. He quietly followed the middle-aged couple.
The middle-aged couple were definitely inexperienced thieves.
Other than being alert when they were taking the luggage, the two of them walked into the airport as if no one was around.
Ye Feng brought Zhuang Xiaoqiao and followed them quietly, taking out his phone to film them. They did not notice at all and even started to talk openly in a low voice.
“This suitcase doesn’t look cheap. There might be a lot of valuable things in it.”
“In a while, let’s find a safe pa.s.sage with no one around and open it.”
“Take away all the valuable things inside. As for the rest, just toss them with the suitcase.”
“…”
“I’ve really made a killing this time.”
“On the way to China, I actually picked up a suitcase for free.”
“Maybe G.o.d is watching over us?”
“…”
Then, the two of them chatted as they entered a safe pa.s.sage.
The woman put down Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s luggage and was about to open it in a hurry.
At this moment, Ye Feng naturally raised his phone and went in along with Zhuang Xiaojiao.
However, to their surprise, the two stupid thieves still did not notice them.
It was only when the woman of the middle-aged American couple turned around and looked at the emergency exit that she saw the two of them. She was shocked and looked at Ye Feng and Zhuang Xiaoqiao nervously. “What, what are you doing?”
Ye Feng ended the recording, he looked at the two of them with a faint smile. “We should be the ones asking you what you want to do by taking our luggage here.”
When the middle-aged American couple heard this, their expressions changed.
She subconsciously blocked Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s luggage and stuttered, “W-what luggage?”
“Are you guys mistaken?”
“We only have our own suitcases here!”
Ye Feng was not interested in playing these little tricks with them.
He waved the phone in his hand and clicked on the video that he had just taken. He sneered. “I’m talking to you nicely now. If I call the police, it’ll be a different way of talking.”
“You have to think carefully before answering my question!”
When the middle-aged American couple saw the video on the phone, especially when they heard that their conversation was recorded, their expressions changed again.
After that, they looked at Ye Feng with fear in their eyes.
“Sir, there might be some misunderstanding!”
“Don’t be angry yet, and don’t call 911!”
“Let’s settle this privately, okay?”
When Ye Feng heard this and combined it with their words and actions, as well as their abnormal actions, he could basically tell that these two were very afraid of law enforcement officers.
Moreover, it was very likely that the two of them had committed a crime!
The origin of the folding fan in his hand, which had the Tang Yin painting, “Talking about the Ancient Times at the River Pavilion,” was also suspicious!
He narrowed his eyes. “My friend is very angry!”
“I’m afraid she won’t be able to accept it if you don’t want us to call the police!”
As he said that, he patted Zhuang Xiaoqiao from behind.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao seemed to have understood his signal. She immediately scowled and said coldly, “I hate it when people touch my things!”
“Especially when someone steals my things!”
“…”
The middle-aged American couple was frightened and their faces immediately turned pale.
The woman’s voice was trembling. “We’ll return your luggage to you and compensate you for your mental damage. Is that okay?”
“Really, we’re willing to compensate you to the greatest extent!”
“As long as you don’t call 911, we can discuss anything!”
“…”
Zhuang Xiaoqiao did not know what Ye Feng was thinking, when she heard this, she immediately turned to look at Ye Feng.
Ye Feng saw this, but his expression was still cold, he pretended to be disdainful. “Compensation, what can you compensate my friend with?”
“She doesn’t lack money!”
“She doesn’t even care about ordinary compensation!”
“…”
