Xiao Yize recalled how Gu Yang recognized antiques at a glance when he was watching “Drinking in the Countryside”. “Little Sister seemed to be quite knowledgeable about antiques and cultural relics. Miss Gu, do you also know how to look at antiques?”
When Gu Jin heard Xiao Yize mention “younger sister”, she knew that it was her younger sister, Gu Yang. “A little.”
“Take a look. Copper coins of the Ming Dynasty, and vases of the Tang Dynasty…”
“These are all good things passed down from our ancestors. Sir. Miss. come and take a look.”
When the people at the roadside stalls saw Xiao Yize and Gu Jin, they greeted them as if they had seen a couple of idiots who were easy to fool.
Xiao Yize glanced at them casually. “They’re all fakes.”
As the heir of a top aristocratic family in the capital, even though he had never specially studied appraisal, he had come into contact with many antiques and cultural relics since he was young. He had good judgment.
“Antiques aren’t common either.” Gu Jin didn’t even look at the roadside stalls. Instead, she walked straight towards an antique, calligraphy, and painting shop with simple and elegant decorations.
This was a proper shop. All the calligraphy, paintings, and antiques had been appraised by an appraiser. There were basically no forgeries.
After Xiao Yize entered the antique calligraphy and painting shop, he was stunned for a moment before taking out his phone to check.
“Which painting do you like, Miss Gu?” Xiao Yize asked as he walked around with her.
Gu Jin had high standards. Even the calligraphy and paintings here might not catch her eye. She casually glanced around and her gaze landed on a painting of a horse displayed in the glass cabinet in front of her.
She said to the staff beside her, “Help me take out this painting.”
The staff was originally very happy to see a customer coming to buy calligraphy and paintings, but when he saw Gu Jin pointing at the painting, his smile instantly froze. “I’m sorry, Miss. This is from our private collection. It’s not for sale and is only on display.”
“That’s a pity. I only have my eyes on this one.” When Gu Jin heard that it wasn’t for sale, she nodded and did not insist. She turned around and left.
Just as Xiao Yize was about to say something, another staff beside them sneered. “If you can’t afford it, so be it. Why did you say that you only want the painting of a horse? This painting is worth tens of millions. Not everyone can afford it.”
The female staff flicked her hair and looked at the staff in front of her. She sneered. “You were in such a hurry to receive her, but you realized that she’s just pretending to be rich, right?”
Xiao Yize frowned and sent a message.
Soon, the manager rushed over and glared at the female staff. “You’re fired.” The female staff’s smile froze.
“Do the two of you want this horse painting? It’s okay. It’s for sale now. I’ll wrap it up for you immediately,” the manager said.
The two staff beside him were dumbfounded.
Xiao Yize took the initiative to swipe his card. After leaving the place, he handed the picture of a horse to Gu Jin. “Miss Gu.”
Gu Jin asked, “Do you own that shop?”
Xiao Yize wasn’t surprised that Gu Jin would find out about his unusual relationship with that shop, but he still shook his head. “It wasn’t mine. It was Lin Ran’s.”
Gu Jin nodded and took the painting. “What’s your bank account number? I’ll transfer the money to you.”
She only had Xiao Yize’s WeChat, but WeChat did not support transferring so much money in a day.
“There’s no need, Miss Gu.” Xiao Yize shook his head. Seeing that Gu Jin was still insisting, he said, “Just deduct it from the consultation fee. If Miss Gu really feels bad, you can treat me to a few more meals.”
Immediately after, Xiao Yize received a transfer of ten million dollars.
Xiao Yize was stunned.
