Inheriting a Famous Sect
"Brother, what do you say? Should we go to Monkey's place or let him bring the goods to the shop?”Xiaowu asked.
After all, it was illegal goods and not just one or two pieces. He could not bring them into the shop easily.
"Call Monkey and ask them to keep the things first. Then, call Liu Zi. Let's go to Second Master's place and see him.”Li Bawang suddenly said.
"Yo, Third Brother, what treasure did you receive that you actually want to invite Second Master?”Little Five looked at his boss in shock and was even more excited. Something that needed to be appraised by an elder must be a treasure. If it were to be sold, it would cost at least a few million, right?
After Li Bawang had changed out of his ancient costume, he had picked out a few good jade pieces from the jade box. He was going to show them to the elders to identify the dynasty and estimate the price.
Although he had bought an antique shop, he did not have much money. Moreover, he had to feed his underlings!
Other than taking the item to be appraised, he also wanted to find a way from the elders so that he could safely sell the jade in the future.
Although he also had some channels, his channels were more or less against the rules. For safety reasons, it was better to look for his elders.
After closing the door, he walked out of the corner of the store.
From this, it could be seen that not only was his store remote, but it was also not big and did not have enough capital.
However, this small shop had already cost the four brothers all their savings and even a lot of debt.
When Li Bawang took a bag and walked to the street with Xiaowu, many people greeted him.
"Eh? Little Third Master, where are you going?"
"Third Brother, what good stuff did you receive again? You young people have a wide range of paths, but we old guys can't!”
"Yo, Little Third Master, I heard that you received a jade token yesterday and then closed the shop.”
How should he put it? Li Bawang was quite famous in the entire Antique Street, partly because of his own strength and partly because of his sect.
In the entire antique street, the older people would call him Third Brother, and the younger ones would even call him Little Third Master.
This was because he had a famous teacher in the antique industry.
His master was called Cao Jincuo, a native of XXX. He was also known as Third Master Cao or Third Master.
His antique appraisal skills were definitely at the level of a master. Those so-called experts on TV could not compare at all.
Li Bawang was his master's last disciple. Coincidentally, his master's name was passed down from the Jin generation to the Yuan generation, so he did not change his name.
His master was addressed as Third Master, so Li Bawang was naturally addressed as Little Third Master.
The person he was going to find was his master's senior brother, Tang Jinbao. People called him Second Master Tang. He was from Beijing and used to be part of the government. He came to the UA two years ago when Cao Jincuo passed away.
After seeing Li Bawang, who was a good seedling, he stayed in XXX to continue teaching him and to guide him not to continue on the evil path.
After Li Bawang and Xiaowu met up with the other two brothers, they walked towards Second Master's house.
After the meeting, a tall and thin young man asked Li Bawang in a low voice,""Third brother, what's the situation? Just now, Fifth Brother called to say that you found a treasure?”
Another young man who looked like a thief also came over and muttered,"Let the second master appraise it. That thing must be worth at least a few million. Otherwise, it will taint his eyes.”
"Alright, cut the crap. You'll naturally know when you get to second grandpa.”Li Bawang stopped them from asking further.
The few of them walked out of the antique street and crossed a few roads before arriving at an old house. This used to be Cao Jincuo's residence, and Second Master Tang was now living there.
This residential building was very old. Many people had already moved out of here, and the remaining people were some old people living here.
Second Master Tang lived on the first floor. It was just by turning right at the staircase.
After knocking on the door, an old man with a dignified aura opened the door.
The old man was in his seventies or eighties. He was wearing an old Chinese tunic suit. He was tall and straight, and his appearance was meticulously taken care of. His overall mental state was very good.
After the old man opened the door, there was not much expression on his face. He did not look at Li Bawang at first, but at the package in his hand.
He knew that Li Bawang had come here to find him to appraise something.
Li Bawang couldn't be blamed. This old man was a little strict and even very old-fashioned, so Li Bawang didn't come over often.
"Martial Uncle." Li Bawang began to teach the old man when he saw him.
"Second Grandpa." The other three could only respectfully call him Second Grandpa.
The old man had strictly set the rules. He said that the rules could not be broken. Since Li Bawang was the disciple of his junior brother, he naturally had to call him uncle master. As for the others, they did not have this treatment.
"Yes, come in. Put the things on the table and open them.”the old man said after letting them in.
"I got a few good things and wanted to let you take a look. You know, I can study modern things, but I want you to take a look at those that are a little further away.”Li Bawang said respectfully.
As he spoke, he opened the package and revealed the item.
When the old man saw the jade carvings in the package, his eyes lit up. He reached out and took one of the jade carvings in his hand and looked at it carefully.
"Yes, it's carved in the Han Dynasty. It's a rare ancient jade, and it's so well preserved. It's as if it's been touched and played with often.”After saying that, he glanced at Li Bawang, and then his face was no longer as serious.
Then, he appraised the other jade articles and jades.
"These are all from before the Tang Dynasty. Not only are the jade quality very good, but they are also extremely well preserved.”The old man looked up at Li Bawang and asked.
Before Li Bawang could speak, the old man continued,""Alright, as long as you come from a legitimate source, I don't care where you get it.”
Li Bawang heaved a sigh of relief. He wondered when the old man had become so open-minded.
"Don't worry, there's absolutely no problem with the item.”
"Yes." The old man nodded and continued," With your level, you can identify most of them. The reason you're looking for me is probably because you want to make a move, right?"”
While the two of them were talking, the other three had no chance to speak at all.
However, when Monkey and the others heard that they were going to make a move, their eyes naturally lit up. They waited for the old man to estimate the price.
"Yes, the items are all good. I'll contact your senior brother in Shanghai and ask him to help you sell them. Recently, he happened to be looking for jade and seems to be preparing to hold a jade auction.”
After saying that, he gave the number of the disciple in Shen Cheng to Li Bawang.
Soon, after the call was connected, they talked for a while and sent a photo of the jade over.
The senior brother named Huang Yuankun immediately made the decision to buy all the jade articles for 13 million yuan and transfer the money directly.
Li Bawang didn't expect his senior brother to be so decisive. He quickly said,""Why don't senior brother send someone over to take the things?”
The other party pondered for a moment before saying,"I'll come over directly and visit Master while I'm at it."”
"Alright, I'll pick you up at the airport.”
Just like that, it was decided. As long as the person arrived, Li Bawang would immediately get 13 million yuan and instantly become a multimillionaire.
As for Monkey and the others, they were long dumbfounded. They originally estimated that the item was only worth a million yuan. They did not expect it to be worth ten million yuan.
When they came out, Liu Zi asked in a daze,""Third Brother, you're going to become a multimillionaire just like this?”
Li Bawang thought to himself, Ten million is nothing. I still have a few hundred million in my hands.
He didn't expect that a few jade artifacts would be worth more than ten million yuan.
However, he couldn't be blamed. After all, he had never played with such high-end items before. In the past, he only learned the approximate price.
