Chapter 698 - 698 You're Actually An Antique Master?
698 You’re Actually An Antique Master?
Although she had been praised by countless people since she was young, she was already tired of hearing it. However, when she heard his praise, her heart could not help but beat wildly.
How should she respond?
If she said, “No, I’m not beautiful at all,” would he think that she was too hypocritical?
If she said “thank you for the compliment”, would he think that she was too thick-skinned?
She was at a loss.
Ye Feng also reacted at this moment. He was too straightforward, and he might scare the girl. He quickly coughed twice.
“That… Let’s go in. There are many people on the street. You have to follow closely.”
After saying that, he took the lead and walked toward the antique street.
Xia Qiu didn’t know what was going on, but she suddenly followed him and stuffed her little hand into his.
Ye Feng’s body stiffened as he turned around.
Xia Qiu was already embarrassed. She quickly turned her face to the side and pretended to be curious about the furnishings on the street. Her heart thumped wildly as if it was about to jump out.
Ye Feng’s lips curled into an undetectable smile. He turned around and continued walking toward the antique street.
The two of them looked like a little couple, making others envious.
Ye Feng did not immerse himself in the ‘gentle place’ for too long. He always remembered his mission today. Other than accompanying the beautiful ladies shopping, he also had to solve his financial problems.
Therefore, as soon as he entered the antique street, he activated the in-depth scanning function.
After the system’s in-depth scanning function had been upgraded, all the information of antiques within a 10-meter radius was listed in front of him.
He didn’t even need to look carefully to know the value of these antiques.
This function was a huge blow to the antique stores.
Xia Qiu was also very curious about this antique street. Her eyes were wide open, looking around like a curious baby.
At that moment, a customer was asking for a price for a pair of pearl earrings at the stall in front of her. “Boss, how much are these earrings?”
The boss immediately extended a finger. “10,000. No bargaining.”
The customer immediately bargained. “500, no more.”
The boss was furious. “500? Are you kidding me? At least 5,000, no less.”
The customer gritted his teeth. “800 yuan. If you sell it, I’ll take it. If you don’t, then forget it.”
The boss hesitated for a moment. “I see that you’re sincere in buying it. How about this? I’ll take it for 1,500 yuan.”
The customer immediately put down the earring. “I’ll pay 800 at most. If you don’t sell it, I’ll leave…”
As he spoke, he pretended to leave.
Xia Qiu was amused by this scene. She thought that these two people were too funny. The boss had said that he would not bargain for 10,000 yuan at first, but it had turned into 1,500 yuan so quickly.
This also showed that the waters of the antique shop were too deep. If someone who didn’t know what was going on rashly entered, they would only be ripped off.
The boss was about to stop the man when he saw Xia Qiu. His eyes lit up.
It wasn’t that he recognized her, but he felt that this woman looked like a noob and was easy to fool.
However, when he saw the man beside the girl, his expression changed immediately. Wasn’t this Little Master Ye who had paid 20,000 yuan to enter the venue and finally opened the blind box that cost 20 million yuan?
That day, Ye Feng had shown off his prowess in the antique street and caused a sensation in the entire street. Now, he had become a legend in the antique street.
Even those who hadn’t seen it with their own eyes knew that a young man had used 20,000 to create 20 million.
Ye Feng also noticed Xia Qiu’s gaze. “What? Do you like that pair of earrings?”
Xia Qiu nodded. “It’s pretty.”
Ye Feng did not say anything else. He immediately held her hand and walked to the stall. “Boss, how much is that pair of earrings?”
The boss glanced at him and immediately rolled his eyes. “100,000!”
Xia Qiu’s eyes widened. “Boss, you’re too much. You said you were willing to sell it for 1,500, and now you want to sell it for 100,000?”
The boss laughed shamelessly. “That was just then, and now is now. If I sell it to him for 1,500, I’ll sell it to you for 100,000.”
Xia Qiu was furious. How could they do business like this?
She immediately pulled Ye Feng’s arm. “Ye Feng, let’s go. Does he really think we are fools?”
Ye Feng naturally knew why this shop owner raised the price. He smiled bitterly.
It seemed like he couldn’t survive in the antique street anymore. As long as he liked something, people would immediately raise the price. How was he going to play?
Then, Xia Qiu noticed a strange phenomenon.
The two of them had just taken two steps when they saw a group of people rushing to the stall, fighting to ask the boss for the price.
“Boss, 10,000 dollars. I want that pair of earrings.”
“I’ll pay 110,000.”
“You want to buy this pair of earrings for 110,000 yuan? This is something that Great Little Master Ye had taken a fancy to. Its value will at least double.”
“I bid 150,000.”
“I’ll pay 160,000…”
Xia Qiu was dumbfounded. What was going on?
Why was it that after Ye Feng saw it, not only did the price not drop, there were even so many people bidding for it?
A pair of earrings that were worth at most 1,000 yuan was actually bid at 160,000 yuan. Wasn’t this too exaggerated?
She turned to look at Ye Feng curiously for an answer.
Ye Feng shrugged helplessly: “A bunch of fools, don’t lower yourself to their level.”
With that, he led her to another stall.
However, this scene continued to play out.
Every time Ye Feng asked for the price, the stall owner would raise the price by a sky-high price. After Ye Feng left, a group of people would swarm over and compete for the bid.
Xia Qiu wasn’t stupid, so she quickly figured out what was going on.
This group of people had a blind trust in Ye Feng. As long as it was an item that he had seen before, it was as if he had obtained the ‘authoritative certification’, it would make everyone flock to him.
“You’re actually an antique master?”
She looked at the man in front of her in disbelief.
