Chapter 723 - 723 Can I Take a Look?

723 Can I Take a Look?

The old man was stunned for a moment before he finally made way for the two of them. “If you want to see, come in and take a look. There’s really nothing valuable.”

Ye Feng did not say much. He brought Zhuang Xiaojiao into the courtyard.

The yard was not big, with a total area of about 100 square meters. There were also some vegetables planted in the yard.

There was a dog tied to the southwest corner of the courtyard. When it saw a stranger enter, it immediately barked wildly.

The old man hurriedly went forward and berated the dog before it stopped.

Ye Feng first pretended to look around the courtyard for a while, then he pretended to look at the ceramic bowl that was used to store the dog food.

“This basin…”

When the old man heard his question, he immediately introduced, “This dog food bowl has been around for many years. It has been used to hold dog food since I was young. Is this also an antique?”

Ye Feng looked down for a while before shaking his head. “It’s just an ordinary piece of porcelain, it’s not worth much.”

The old man, who was originally looking forward to it, suddenly lost interest. “I told you, there’s nothing valuable in the house. You should go elsewhere and take a look.”

Ye Feng looked around again, his face was filled with disappointment. “There is indeed nothing valuable.”

With that, he turned around and was about to walk out. After taking a few steps, he stopped and turned to look at the ceramic basin.

“Although it’s not worth much, the patterns on it are quite beautiful. I quite like it. Why don’t I just accept it?”

When the old man heard his words, his turbid eyes lit up. “How much can you offer?”

Ye Feng stretched out two fingers: “200.”

The old man was instantly disappointed. “Only 200? Isn’t that too little?”

Ye Feng made an amused expression. “This is just an ordinary ceramic pot. How much do you want?”

The old man immediately asked for an exorbitant price. “20,000.”

Ye Feng immediately widened his eyes. “How much? 20,000? You really dare to speak.”

The old man also seemed to feel that he was asking too much, and his old face instantly turned red. “Asking for a sky-high price and paying back the money on the spot. Why don’t you bargain?”

Ye Feng pretended to be angry. “You are already so ruthless, how can I repay you? You should continue feeding it to the dogs.”

With that, he pulled Zhuang Xiaojiao away.

The old man hurriedly stopped the two of them. “How much more can you add? 200 yuan is indeed a little too little. Don’t I have to spend money to buy a new dog food bowl?”

Ye Feng continued to put on an angry expression, as if he was trying to calm himself down.

Based on Zhuang Xiaojiao’s understanding of him, since he had spoken, it meant that he had already taken a fancy to the ceramic basin. He was just acting now.

Since that was the case, she didn’t mind cooperating. She tugged at his sleeve and said, “I think this uncle is quite pitiful. Just give him more. Just treat it as charity.”

The old man immediately nodded in agreement. “That’s right. I’m alone now. My son and daughter don’t care about me. You should at least give me more.”

Ye Feng hesitated for a long time before finally opening his mouth again, “Alright then, I’ll bid 500 at most. If you’re willing to sell it, I’ll pay you now. If you’re unwilling, I’ll leave immediately.”

As he spoke, he even took a step forward, as if he was about to leave at any moment.

The old man saw that his tone was so firm, so he could only compromise in the end. “Alright, 500 it is. I want cash.”

Ye Feng did not waste any more words. He immediately took out five 100 yuan bills from his bag.

The old man hurriedly s.n.a.t.c.hed the five notes and looked at them over and over again. After confirming that there was no problem, he put them into his pocket.

Ye Feng turned around to take the ceramic pot, the mutt saw that someone had come to s.n.a.t.c.h its food, it started barking again.

The old man grabbed a stick and beat the dog until it whimpered.

Ye Feng took the opportunity to take the ceramic basin away. He rinsed it with clean water before leaving.

After they walked out of the courtyard, Zhuang Xiaojiao immediately asked impatiently, “How much can this ceramic basin be worth?”

Ye Feng continued to pretend, “It is not worth much.”

Zhuang Xiaojiao was not satisfied with this answer. “You’d better be honest.”

Ye Feng was helpless, he could only tell the truth, “It should be worth… Millions.”

Zhuang Xiaojiao’s eyes widened. “How much? Millions? Really?”

The corner of Ye Feng’s mouth curled up slightly. “If it’s not worth a million, is it worth me personally taking action? This was an object from the Longquan Kiln of the Ming Dynasty. It’s really a waste to be fed to dogs.”

Zhuang Xiaojiao stared blankly at the ceramic pot. She only regained her senses after a while and looked at him with disdain. “Since this pot is worth millions, how dare you argue with someone over a few hundred yuan? Aren’t you too inhumane?”

Ye Feng spread out his hands. “This is business. I can’t just tell him directly that this basin is worth millions, right? Business is a test of your vision and courage. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourself for not having good vision. You can’t blame others.”

Although Zhuang Xiaojiao wanted to refute him, she had to admit that what he said made sense. Wasn’t that how business was? Buying at the lowest possible price and selling at the highest possible price was what a successful businessman should do.

However, this guy used a few hundred yuan to buy someone else’s treasure that was worth a million yuan. He was even stingy and refused to give in for a long time. This was too much. There was really no unscrupulous businessman.

Ye Feng could not be bothered to explain further. He took out that compa.s.s again and pretended to search for his next target.

Zhuang Xiaojiao’s gaze was immediately attracted by the compa.s.s. “This compa.s.s is really useful? It can actually find a treasure?”

Ye Feng glanced at her smugly. “Of course, this is my ancestral treasure. It was all because of it that I was able to become rich so quickly.”

He deliberately spoke loudly as if he wanted someone to hear him.

Zhuang Xiaojiao really believed him. No wonder he could earn money that others could not earn in a few lifetimes in less than a year. It turned out that he had such a heaven-defying treasure?

“Can I touch your baby?”

“You can’t.”

“Why?”
