Chapter 640 The Bet Before the Decisive Battle
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked. They were shocked that Qin Haodong could cut off the ox bronze head sculpture. At the same time, they did not understand why he did this.
Gompos came to his senses and shouted angrily, “Barbarian, what gives you the right to destroy my possession?”
Qin Haodong ignored him. He pointed to ox bronze head sculpture and said, “You are all experts in antiques. Now you should understand that this is fake, right?”
These people looked at the ox bronze head sculpture and immediately understood Qin Haodong’s intention. The cut on the ox bronze head sculpture was very bright, and at the same time, it was shining with the luster of metal. This was obviously the copperware, and it did not look like an antique of hundreds of years.
There was no need to appraise it. Everyone knew that the ox bronze head sculpture was a fake.
Sir Owen said, “Mr. Gompos, cheating a friend with a fake antique is a shameful behavior. You should give us an explanation.”
“I...”
Gompos was dumbfounded. After he made this fake, he had asked several professional experts to identify it, but none of them had found anything wrong.
But he never thought that the Huaxia man in front of him would take an unusual way and directly cut the bronze head sculpture open. The fake technology was used on its exterior, but there was no way to hide the interior
He licked his dry lips and said with embarrassment, “Sir Owen, I’m really sorry. I didn’t know that this was fake.”
This reason was barely reasonable. After all, no one could guarantee that all the things they collected were authentic. It was normal to have fakes.
But since they had offended each other, Qin Haodong had no intention of letting this guy go. He directly used the Mind-Manipulating Skill and asked, “Mr. Gompos, is that true? Please tell God what’s going on.”
“God, I was wrong!” Gompos said, “I did have the ox bronze head sculpture, but it was lost later. I was greedy for the Picasso’s paintings, so I asked someone to make this fake. I wanted to complete this exchange with you.”
“Oh my god, how can you do such a shameless thing? Is this what a gentleman should do?”
“Shame on you! How dare you deceive your friends with a fake? What’s your bottom line?”
After Gompos finished speaking, Sir Owen and the others’ expressions changed, and they began to accuse Gompos.
Sir Owen said, “Gompos, you let me down. People like you are not welcome.”
Cantona said, “From now on, we have nothing to do with each other. We are no longer friends. I feel ashamed of being friends with you.”
Joseph said, “I’m the same. I won’t have any contact with you in the future!”
“I...”
Gompos came to his senses and was too ashamed to stay here any longer. He left Sir Owen’s manor with his appraiser and servants in disgrace.
After he left, Sir Owen said to Qin Haodong, “Mr. Qin, I apologize for his shameless behavior.”
“Sir, this has nothing to do with you, and I’m very grateful for your help!”
Qin Haodong had exchanged two of the bronze sculpted heads of the 12 zodiac animals today, which was relatively satisfactory. All of this should really be attributed to Sir Owen.
He picked up the rest of the album and said, “‘Sir, in order to express my gratitude to you, I’ll give this book to you.”
“Oh my god! Dear Qin, do you really want to give it to me?”
Sir Owen couldn’t believe his ears. He didn’t expect that Qin Haodong could take out such a precious thing and give it away so casually.
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Of course, Sir, thank you for your help this time.”
Sir Owen said excitedly, “Dear Qin, you are really my best friend. Just say what you want if you need my help in the future.”
Qin Haodong nodded and said to Cantona and the other two, “I’m glad to have met you. If you find a bronze sculpted head in the future, you’re welcome to exchange it with me. Or send me a message.”
Cantona said, “Mr. Qin, we’re glad to have met you too. You’ll be our friend in the future.”
Joseph said, “Qin, do you still have Picasso’s paintings?”
Qin Haodong smiled and said, “Mr. Joseph, please rest assured. Even if there are no paintings of Picasso, I will definitely take out something that will satisfy you, as long as you can give me the real bronze sculpted heads of the 12 zodiac animals.”
He did not have any more now, but as long as he was willing, he could draw the paintings of DaVinci, Van Gogh, Picasso anytime and anywhere.
After the exchange, Qin Haodong declined Sir Owen’s invitation for lunch and took Nalan Wushuang back to the Li’s villa.
After entering the room, he found a beautiful woman sitting in his room. She was Feng Wu, who was like a fairy.
“Feng Wu, you are here?”
Although she had said that he would come to see Qin Haodong in the morning, he was still a little surprised. He went over and held her hand in his.
“Don’t do this. Sister Wushuang is still here.”
Even though the two of them were cultivation partners, Feng Wu was still a bit embarrassed. Her sparkling jade-like face flushed red.
“It doesn’t matter. We will be family in the future.”
Qin Haodong said as he held Nalan Wushuang’s hand in his palm. This time, even Nalan Wushuang’s face turned red.
He then turned to Feng Wu and asked, “Have you finished your work?”
Feng Wu nodded and said, “I have told my master about everything. My master is very happy. She asked me to stay with you all the time, not only to protect you, but also to promote our cultivation quickly. She wants me to be a Saint as soon as possible, like Sister Shihan.
Speaking of this, her cheeks became redder. The so-called rapid promotion of cultivation was the pair cultivation.
Qin Haodong did not realize this. He asked again, “By the way, do you have any news about Shihan? How is she now?”
Feng Wu said, “Sister Shihan was indeed taken back to the Yinsha Sect by her master. She is now the master of the Yinsha Sect.”
“Oh! That’s good.”
Qin Haodong nodded and was also happy for the girl.
Feng Wu said, “I heard that you and Mei Zhanlong agreed to battle on the Divine Dragon Island. Do you want me to fight for you?”
“No. I’m now a ninth-level supreme power master.”
As Qin Haodong said that, he infused his Genuine Qi into Feng Wu’s body according to the Xuanyuan Skill. Feng Wu felt a strong Genuine Qi combining with her Genuine Qi, which was several times stronger than before. She quickly ran her Genuine Qi to her limbs and bones.
“That’s great! That’s great!”
She screamed excitedly. The more powerful Qin Haodong’s cultivation was, the better the effect of their pair cultivation. She saw the hope of breaking through the bottleneck of the Saint Realm.
In the next few days, Qin Haodong spent in pair cultivation with Feng Wu and Nalan Wushuang.
Outside, the quarrel between him and Mei Zhanlong was getting fiercer. Under the influence of long-standing fame, more people were optimistic about Mei Zhanlong, while few were optimistic about Qin Haodong.
Who was Mei Zhanlong? He was known as the number one master in the field of magic techniques in Hong Kong. For many years, his status had not been shaken by anyone.
Everyone knew that he was extremely powerful and that his Taoist magic arts were profound. On weekdays, many high-ranking officials, nobles, were all his guests. Only the top-class rich people could come to visit him.
How could such a person lose?
In Hong Kong, gambling was legal. The casinos here gave their own gambling predictions one after another. What was strange was that Mei Zhanlong and Qin Haodong had same odds of 10:1.
The ordinary people did not understand what was going on and thought that they had taken advantage of the situation, so they all placed their bets on Master Mei Zhanlong.
The casinos had been running for so many years, so they naturally had their own opening rules. Ordinary people didn’t know who Qin Haodong was, but they were very clear about it.
The Medical Sage from Huaxia was able to quietly kill Master Zha, Sarah Banta, and Yi Chenzi, and a few days ago, the top three thieves in the world had all been defeated by him. How could such a person be so easily defeated?
In the Li family, Li Meiyu had taken over all the properties of the Li family, but she still had to consult Li Dongguo about some important things.
“Grandpa, now the casino has issued Haodong and Mei Zhanlong’s odds. How much should we bet?”
Li Dongguo picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip. He looked up at his granddaughter and said, “If little brother Medical Sage loses this duel, how much of the impact will it have on our Li family?”
Li Meiyu said, “A great impact. Because of our relationship with Haodong, I think that Mei Zhanlong will vent his anger on our Li family and even destroy us. Now we are on the same boat as Haodong.”
Li Dongguo said, “In that case, what else do you have to hesitate about?”
“I understand, grandpa!”
Li Meiyu agreed, and then she transferred all the money of her family to bet on Qin Haodong.
It was very clear that they shared the same glory as Qin Haodong. If Qin Haodong won, the Li family would usher in an unprecedented future. If Qin Haodong lost, then the Li family would no longer exist.
In America, in an extremely hidden luxury villa, Donnie Randall had become the new controller of the underground network.
She kept checking the important information sent by her servants. When she saw the bet between Qin Haodong and Mei Zhanlong, she smiled. Others might not know it, but she knew very well how terrible this Huaxia man was. So she bet all her assets on Qin Haodong.
After that, she murmured, “Huaxia man, although I didn’t steal your paintings, I want to make a lot of money off you.”
After receiving the news, Lin Momo in Shanghai also mobilized all the money in her hand and bet it all on Qin Haodong.
In addition, Sir Owen also bet heavily on Qin Haodong. Even Tian Ye and Zhao Zhaohui bet heavily on Qin Haodong.
In this way, all the casinos on Hong Kong went crazy. The number of people who bet on Mei Zhanlong was larger, but the amount of money that was bet on Qin Haodong was larger. By comparison, they were still well-matched.
Soon it was the day of the battle. Qin Haodong refused the bodyguards arranged by the Li family. He boarded the speedboat arranged by the Li family with Nalan Wushuang and Feng Wu, and drove to the Divine Dragon Island.
