Chapter 22 Empty-handed

"This piece of jade was from the Han Dynasty, and the snuff bottle is Ma Shaoxuan's work. They are both good things. I want it! Let me tell you, Mr. Zhao, I have 5 million yuan in my card. If you dare, you can fight me to the end. I will pay 3 million yuan!"

Qi Delong was determined to fight to the death, and his eyes were full of provocation when he looked at Zhao Yinghao.

Zhao Yinghao's heart skipped a beat. "The fat man hasn't looked it yet. How did he know the information? He must have heard it, and I can't let him succeed."

Chen Yu smiled so broadly that his eyes were almost narStreeted into slits. It was as if he didn't know what to do. He hurried to reply, "Mr. Qi is smart enough. I like it. If Mr. Zhao doesn't want to raise the price, I will sell it to you."

Zhao Jiajun was so angry that he wished he could jump on Chen Yu and strangle him to death. What he got without spending a penny was raised to three million yuan. It was f*cking cunning.

The price was a little high now, and anyone who bought it would suffer a loss. However, Qi Delong and Zhao Yinghao were completely competing for face. One wanted to take back the family heirloom, and the other deliberately raised the price to humiliate the other side.

"What good stuff has come out again? You two are fighting so fiercely. Let us have a look and broaden our horizons."

"A piece of jade ring from the Han Dynasty and Master Ma Shaoxuan's snuff bottle are both good things worth more than a million yuan..."

Because the price was raised by both sides at the door of the store, it attracted a lot of tourists and the owners of the surrounding shops. More and more people were gathering and talking about it.

This situation was extremely unfavorable to Zhao Yinghao. The scandal could be spread easily, and he could not lose to Qi Delong in the eyes of the public. He must end the battle as soon as possible without much impact.

He became hot-headed and shouted, "I bid 3.5 million!"

"3.6 million yuan!" Qi Delong called out unhurriedly.

"3.7 million!" Zhao Yinghao raised the price again with red eyes.

"It's just 3.7 million yuan. It's just a small sum of money. I never failed to get the things I want!" Qi Delong said in a tough tone. He faced Zhao Yinghao directly and continued, "But if you spend an extra million yuan on it, it's worth it for me to vent my anger. I don't want it. I'll give it to you!"

After that, Qi Delong laughed out loud, and the fat all over his body trembled. He played with Zhao Yinghao and felt very happy.

His words were aggressive, but the turning point was really unexpected, which made the onlookers feel as if they had been struck by lightning. They were stunned for a long time and did not come to their senses.

Zhao Yinghao was so angry that he gnashed his teeth and his heart was bleeding. He had to spend nearly four million yuan to buy back what belonged to his family. Unfortunately, he was teased by Qi Delong. He would get both principal and interest back in the future.

Song Yan, who was watching coldly in the store, couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. The fat man Qi Delong was really mean.

Chen Yu turned to look at Qi Delong and winked at him, expressing his gratitude for his help.

Then, he said to Zhao Yinghao with a smile, "Congratulations, Mr. Zhao. You got what you wanted. You bought the jade ring and the snuff bottle. Transfer the money. There are so many people watching!"

Qi Delong folded his arms and spoke up, "Zhao Yinghao, if you don't give money, then you're breaking the rules. Be careful of ruining your reputation!"

Zhao Yinghao's face turned livid. He wished he could kill the two people in front of him who were smirking, but what he said was right. It was a taboo to bid but not buy it. With so many people watching, he had to transfer money.

Chen Yu followed him to the counter, waiting for Zhao Yinghao to transfer the money and make transactions.

Zhao Jiajun was like a defeated rooster and a frosted eggplant. He hung his head in dejection. In his two bets with Chen Yu, he had actually lost 3.7 million. He was completely unwilling to let Chen Yu take away the money.

The scene outside the door grew even livelier. Qi Delong's spittle flew everywhere as he narrated the story of how he overheard Zhao Jiajun losing the jade ring and a million snuff bottle. He described the story with great embellishment.

After Qi Delong's publicity, the embarrassing incident of the Zhao family soon spread throughout the Antique Street. In addition, Zhao Yinghao spent 3.7 million to buy it back. He lost both money and face. For a time, he became a laughing stock.

Qi Delong finally took revenge on Zhao Yinghao fiercely. He won in the battle between the two families, so he was elated and proud.

Zhao Yinghao and his antique shop's reputation suffered a disastrous decline. For a long time after that, they could not raise their heads in front of Qi Delong.

Of course, the biggest winner was none other than Chen Yu. It was equivalent to getting 3.7 million, which added a thick layer of color to his current wealth. He was so happy.

Zhao Yinghao and his son were grieved as if they had lost their parents. Their faces were as gloomy as they could be. After the transaction, they stared at Chen Yu like two vicious wolves and watched him leave. Sooner or later, they would get him pay back and would never let him go.

Before going out, Chen Yu didn't forget to look back and pretended to be obedient, "Mr. Zhao, Zhao Jiajun, remember to call me next time there is such a good thing!"

"Piss off!" Zhao Yinghao shouted at the top of his voice. He rushed over angrily and closed the door of the shop hard. After such a shameful thing, how could he be in the mood to do business?

"Dad, Chen Yu has gone too far. Let's spend money to hire people to torture him to death and take back the money!" Zhao Jiajun said fiercely.

"You still have the face to talk? I'll break your legs so that you won't make trouble again!"

Zhao Yinghao was furious. He has lost almost all his annual profits because of his son. He picked up the bronze vessel on the counter and threw it hard.

"Bang!" Zhao Jiajun wasn't able to dodge in time, and he was beaten by the bronze vessel, causing him to fall to the ground. And the bronze vessel shatter into pieces.

Mr. Gu hurried forward to dissuade him. "Mr. Zhao, stop. It's a pity to throw a bronze vessel worth hundreds of thousands of yuan. Don't take a chair, the young master can't stand it..."

Chen Yu stood outside the door and listened to the angry curses and screams coming from the shop. A burst of gloating laughter rang out. If it wasn't for the Zhao family bullying him, he wouldn't have taken so much money from them. They deserved it.

"Let's go!" Chen Yu called out before leaving with Song Yan, and he thanked her. "Thank you for speaking up for me when they threatened me. You still owe me a condition from the bet from before, and now we're even."

"I'm just saying a fair thing, don't worry!" Song Yan smiled faintly and emphasized, "I can afford to play. I owe you a condition, and I will never go back on it!"

These words caused Chen Yu's favorable impression of Song Yan to increase greatly. Even though this lady of the wealthy family was proud and arrogant, she is a person of her word.

Chen Yu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, it's almost noon. I'll treat you to lunch. Thank you for upholding justice!"

"No, thanks. You have shown me the treasure identification method of 'feeling the pulse', and this trip was not in vain."

"Young man, please wait a moment!" At this time, Qi Delong squeezed through the crowd that was listening to him and came over. He invited Chen Yu and said, "Bro, we are fated to meet. We just won a big battle together. Would you like to come to my shop?"
