Chapter 73

Just as Wang Qying happened to come over, he saw Jiang Yan and Wei Yan, and immediately felt some disgust. He then reached out and pressed his hand on Yang Kang's shoulder, saying, "Young Master, drink your coffee, let's go out and see the commotion!"

"Okay!" Yang Kang nodded.

Yang Kang finished his coffee and was about to leave. Professor Qin hurriedly called out, "Young Master, Young Master Wang, wait for me, I'm coming too."

"Professor, aren't you staying here to oversee things?" Wang Qying asked curiously.

"Zhen Lao is here," Professor Qin smiled, and then raised his voice to call out, "Zhen Lao, if anyone looks for me, give me a call. I'm going out for a walk."

"Go ahead, go ahead, I'm here!" Zhen Lao, who had a good relationship with Professor Qin and knew his restless nature, waved and smiled.

Wang Qying pulled Yang Kang towards the door of the flower hall. Jiang Yan saw Yang Kang and hurriedly blocked him.

"Mr. Jiang, what are you doing?" Wang Qying's face darkened; he had no good feelings towards Jiang Yan at all.

"Why, why is it like this?" Jiang Yan asked Yang Kang, looking at him.

"Mr. Jiang, I don't know what you're talking about," Yang Kang shook his head. Although everything was as he had expected, Jiang Yan didn't understand antiques at all, and naturally didn't recognize the bronze vessel. He was probably misled by someone and ended up buying this bronze bird vessel, probably using all his savings.

He had hoped to resell it for a few tens of millions, but earning that much wasn't so easy.

He couldn't help but think of his father. Why did Oumei Feng determine that "The Splendor of Tokyo" was fake, leading to his father's death?

That painting was clearly genuine, wasn't it?

Thinking of this, Yang Kang immediately walked towards Jiang Shanghua. Jiang Shanghua was watching over the bronze bird vessel, not daring to leave it for a step. Although he had heard Zhen Lao and Professor Qin say it was a high-quality imitation, he still couldn't believe it. Deep down, he still believed it was genuine.

It was worth tens of millions, and after that, his family would never worry about food and clothing. No, no, no, in the future, he could buy whatever brand he wanted, no longer having to save for months to buy a piece of clothing and then not even wear it.

"What are you doing?" Jiang Shanghua saw Yang Kang reach out to touch the bronze bird vessel and hurriedly shouted.

"I'm just taking a look!" As Yang Kang spoke, his fingers already touched it—Taiyin Baojian showed no reaction, it was lifeless.

Yang Kang said no more and called Wang Qying and Professor Qin to go out together.

After watching Yang Kang and the others leave, Jiang Yan couldn't accept that the bronze bird vessel was a high-quality imitation and stood dazed in the flower hall.

"Old man, what should we do?" Wei Yan hurriedly asked.

Just then, Lu Mingxiang walked over, and Jiang Yan hurriedly went up to him and said, "Mr. Lu, do you want to see the bronze vessel?"

"I'm not a fool," Lu Mingxiang shook his head and called Cai Yuan to drink. He and Cai Yuan had met at Ruyi Fang and hit it off immediately, and as extremely wealthy people, they naturally had a lot in common.

"Mr. Lu, have you seen Young Master?" At this moment, a clear voice asked.

"Ah..." Lu Mingxiang turned around and saw Tang Chen, smiling, "Mr. Tang, Young Master was just taken out to play by Young Master Wang. You'll naturally see him later, what's the rush? Come, let's drink."

"I don't drink with people of bad character," Cai Yuan said, tilting his head.

"How is my character bad?" Tang Chen sneered, "Fat Cai, did Young Master not give you a chance to bid? He did, didn't he? Young Master said long ago that if you don't have enough money, don't go to Ruyi Fang. Tsk, tsk, who are you blaming?"

"Mr. Tang, you're making a blanket statement," Lu Mingxiang touched his chest and said, "You're in real estate, I'm in the herbal business. Please don't throw money around. By the way... while Young Master is away, I'll tell you something in secret."

"What?" Cai Yuan hurriedly asked.

"I invited Professor to drink at noon today, and he was a bit tipsy. He joked that we haven't seen the world—when I asked, he mumbled that Young Master has something better than Yuan blue-and-white porcelain, and he laughed at me..." Mentioning this, Lu Mingxiang felt a bit resentful.

"What did he laugh at you for?" Cai Yuan and Tang Chen were interested and hurriedly asked.

"He said it's a priceless treasure, and I can't afford it," Lu Mingxiang sighed, "I felt uncomfortable and wanted to ask Young Master what it is, but I'm not close to him and don't feel right asking. Mr. Tang, you're close to him, ask him what it is. If possible, let us see it too?"

"I'm curious too, I'll ask later," Tang Chen smiled.

They were talking, and Jiang Yan naturally didn't hear everything, only vaguely hearing something about a priceless treasure...

He naturally knew that Yang Kang had a nickname, "Young Master." His son used to call him that when he was young, and he even got angry and told Yang Chongxuan to change his name.

Why was the bronze bird vessel he bought at a high price fake, while Yang Kang had a priceless treasure?

The more he thought about it, the more Jiang Yan felt aggrieved.

Just then, two men dressed in black, looking like bodyguards, walked over and asked, "Mr. Jiang Yan, is this your business card?"

Jiang Yan took the business card from the two men, a bit dazed, and looked at it. This was a business card he had specially printed and given to Lu Mingxiang.

Lu Mingxiang had casually thrown the business card aside.

"Yes, thank you!" Jiang Yan said, "I accidentally dropped it."

"Mr. Jiang, this is the situation. We just checked, and Taigong Manor does not have a formal antique shop in Jinling. According to the rules of Langyuan, you cannot participate in antique exchanges or auctions," one of the bodyguards bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Jiang, please take your things and leave."

"You want to drive me away?" Jiang Yan immediately came to his senses.

"We're asking you to leave," the bodyguard hurriedly said, "We're not pursuing how you got in, which is already quite lenient—please leave immediately."

"Who said I don't have a formal shop?" Wei Yan's face turned red. Since Jiang Yan bought Yuzhenzhai, she had always considered herself a wealthy lady. Now being driven away by a bodyguard, she felt deeply humiliated.

"Oh?" The bodyguard was taken aback and asked, "Madam, do you have another shop? Tell us, and we'll check."

"Yuzhenzhai!" Wei Yan said, lifting her chin.

"Ah..." The bodyguard couldn't help but laugh, "Madam, don't joke. Yuzhenzhai belongs to Young Master Yang, we all know that. Moreover, Yuzhenzhai is being renovated and doesn't count."
