Chapter 110: 110
“All you’ve done is blame us . What have we actually done wrong? From now on, you better be friendly to us . Otherwise, we’re no longer brothers and sisters!” Then, Gu Qing hung up on Gu Qinyang .
Gu Qinyang was so mad that he almost smashed his phone on the ground . He couldn’t accept the fact that Gu Qing ignored him . Gu Qinyang had always felt he was superior to Gu Qing . He never realized that he was the one that was wrong .
Although they were brothers and sisters, they didn’t have the right to get involved in Gu Man’s and Gu Qing’s personal affairs . However, they thought that they were richer than their sisters, so they believed that they naturally had the right to control their sisters .
Gu Qinyang called Gu Qing again, but she wouldn’t answer .
…
Gu Ning opened her Jade Eyes while walking along the antique street . Many of the objects were the same ones of the last week . There were a few new objects, but most of them were fake .
Even though they were almost all fake, there were real antiques . Besides, Gu Ning had been very lucky ever since she had been reborn .
After a while, Gu Ning found an antique with power halfway down the street . It was a crumpled, dirty teapot . It was big, and looked ordinary and unattractive . If Gu Ning hadn’t noticed the power above it and known that it was real, she would have missed it too .
She stared at it, and gradually fell in love with it . The color of the pot was dark and thick . Its material was like jade . The shape was simple and delicate with mysterious charm .
Gu Ning didn’t know much about antiques, so she couldn’t determine the source or the price of this teapot . However, judging from its intense power, Gu Ning believed that the teapot must have a long history . Its price wouldn’t be low .
“Hey, how much is this?” Gu Ning asked .
The stand owner took a glance at the teapot with obvious dislike in his eyes . The teapot was dusty and dirty . Its size was big, and it was ugly . He didn’t throw it away yet only because he didn’t want to lose money .
The stand owner then glanced at Gu Ning’s face . The price would depend on how interested Gu Ning was in this teapot . If she was very interested in it, the price would be higher, and vice versa .
Gu Ning knew the rules, so she didn’t show her happiness on face, but instead looked hesitant . Accordingly, the stand owner couldn’t raise the price .
“Five hundred yuan,” he said .
After that, he was a little regretful . He only bought this object at the price of fifty yuan .
“Great!” Gu Ning immediately took out five hundred yuan and gave it to the stand owner . The stand owner was surprised that she would buy it so quickly without bargaining at all . However, he believed that it must be a fake, so he happily took the money from Gu Ning .
Gu Ning continued to walk around . She found another object with power before long . It was a landscape painting called The Pond and The People . In the painting, a few strokes revealed the leisurely lifestyle of the people living in the south . There was no specific character but it could make others feel the beauty of life .
The several willow trees on the painting weren’t painted by ink, but in the creative way of the most typical combination of Chinese and Western styles . The paint was squeezed directly from the tubes while the artist was painting . The artist’s name was Wu Guanzhong .
Gu Ning knew that Wu Guanzhong was a famous modern artist, oil painting artist and art educator . He had passed away several years ago .
In her last lifetime, her father Tang Zhenhua owned a painting called The Snow of Peking . It had cost him four million yuan at auction . Therefore, this The Pond and The People landscape painting would be worth several million too . It would be more expensive than The Snow of Peking .
Gu Ning bought the painting at the price of one thousand yuan . Everyone believed that it was fake, because it was sold at a stand . If the stand owner had known that it was authentic, he would had sold it to an art lover himself and made a fortune from it .
When Gu Ning almost reached the end of the antique street, she found a pink glass with deer heads as decoration . She still didn’t know the source and the price of this pink glass, but she bought it since it had power .
Gu Ning thought to herself that she must read more books about antiques . Even though she could recognize the real antiques now, she had no idea about its price . She didn’t want to be deceived when she was going to sell it in the future .
She paid 1,200 yuan for this pink glass .
Zhou Zhenghong stood aside with mixed emotions .
He didn’t know whether those objects Gu Ning had bought were real or not . It only cost several thousand yuan after all, which was nothing for Gu Ning .
However, he believed that Gu Ning wouldn’t waste her money on it if it was fake . She must have bought them because she thought they were real . If those antiques were real, it was so unbearable .
How could Gu Ning accurately pick out the real antiques? Zhou Zhenghong was curious and surprised, but he didn’t say a word . He knew that curiosity killed the cat . He only needed to know that Gu Ning had helped him a lot . And he would stay loyal to her .
The two went to the street of stone gambling later, and started shopping from the first shop as usual .
There were almost all new raw materials indeed . The number of raw materials with jade inside inclined too . In the first shop, Gu Ning had already found two raw materials with high-level jade, and four raw materials with medium-high-level jade . Their sizes varied from an apple to a football .
There were other raw materials with low-level jade inside . However, Gu Ning didn’t buy them, not because she disliked the jade, but because she wanted to save some for other customers .
She didn’t plan to cut the raw materials out here, so she didn’t buy any waste raw materials to disguise her behavior . Gu Ning bought seven raw materials in the end . She went into other shops later, and bought four to six raw materials with high-level jade in each shop .
Now she had 28 raw materials in hands . Although they were mostly small, they were worth a fortune . They weighed 336 pounds, and were worth about one billion yuan at least . They were too heavy to push around in a cart .
However, since Zhou Zhenghong was here, it wasn’t convenient for Gu Ning to put them all in the telepathic eye space .
Although the customer could store the raw materials in the shop, Gu Ning didn’t want to do that, because she clearly knew that all her raw materials had jade inside .
She could only leave them in the car and let Zhou Zhenghong watch them . And she would continue to buy some in the street of stone gambling .
This time, she was going to cut out jade and sell some to collect money .
