The Amazing son in law Chapter 6690

He expressed everything that needed to be said and even what shouldn’t have been voiced, simply because the other party found it hard to believe. So, he spoke with both sincerity and earnestness.

The other party was adamant that the item couldn’t possibly be from the Northern Song Dynasty. They seemed intent on deceiving themselves, insisting that it was worth only 300,000 yuan. Even after learning the item’s true value, they stubbornly maintained their position, claiming that it should still be priced at three hundred thousand. This chain of evidence meant that should they discover the truth and return to cause trouble, he wouldn’t have to worry. Even if the matter escalated to the United Nations, he knew he couldn’t lose.

Having worked in the antiques field for a long time, he had encountered all sorts of peculiar items and had developed a healthy skepticism towards others, always weighing every situation carefully.

After Zhou Liangyun transferred all the surveillance footage onto his mobile phone, he decided it was time to sell the bronze Buddha without delay.

The urgency to act wasn’t due to a lack of funds but stemmed from his realization that someone was determined to undermine his standing in the antique street.

He had just acquired the bronze Buddha today, and it wouldn’t be long before word spread through the antique street, revealing to everyone that they had been duped.

To make a successful comeback, merely claiming that the item was from the Northern Song Dynasty wouldn’t suffice; no one would believe it. Additionally, Zhou Liangyun, the local antique dealer, understood that his expertise wasn’t top-notch. Thus, the best course of action was to dispose of the bronze Buddha quickly. If he managed to sell it, his reputation on Aurous Hill Antique Street would be instantly solidified.

As for the potential exposure of his identity that fame might bring, Zhou Liangyun wasn’t concerned.

Although he had stumbled upon a valuable find, worth tens of millions, such a discovery would only make waves in a local context like Aurous Hill. It was insignificant on a national level, let alone in the European and American antique markets, where collections could easily fetch tens or hundreds of millions each.

Zhang Ermao (Cade) had crafted a scenario that would be just enough to make him well-known in Aurous Hill without attracting too much attention elsewhere. The balance was just right; it wasn’t a mere stroke of luck but rather a well-planned move. It was akin to sending warmth in the midst of a snowstorm—he had gifted him a villa equipped with a heater.

Meanwhile, Jacob, who was riding in Zhang Ermao (Cade)’s car, received a transfer of 300,000 yuan from Zhang Ermao (Cade)’s younger brother.

The items he had purchased for 98,000 yuan earlier that afternoon had been resold for 300,000 yuan by evening. The profit of 200,000 yuan sent Jacob into a joyful dance.

Ordinary people often find it challenging to achieve true happiness in their lives. Earning money typically comes at a cost, often straining one’s body and dignity. More often than not, people earn their keep while on their knees, yet few are fortunate enough to have money effortlessly flow into their pockets. While going out to meet women may bring temporary pleasure, the expenses incurred often lead to distress. To recoup those costs, one must subsequently invest even more time and energy.

But today, Jacob was experiencing what it truly meant to feel fulfilled. He had made money, and remarkably, he did so while lying down. More importantly, he had profited from his adversary and avenged himself against them.

This kind of fortunate event is rare for the average person; the odds are akin to an intimate encounter with an enemy’s spouse, where one spends the enemy’s money to indulge in luxury and then walks away with their cash.

In high spirits, Jacob couldn’t help but praise Zhang Ermao (Cade), saying with a smile, “Oh Ermao, you are truly incredible! You even managed to outsmart Zhou Liangyun. If you keep this up, who in the entire antique street could possibly compete with you?”

Zhang Ermao (Cade) felt a wave of relief wash over him as he realized he no longer had to finance Jacob, and he returned the compliment: “As long as you’re happy, President Jacob!”

“Very happy!” Jacob chuckled. “Now that we have the money, should we let everyone in the Aurous Hill antique community know about Zhou Liangyun’s downfall?”

“Absolutely,” Zhang Ermao (Cade) replied eagerly. “Rest assured, President Jacob, I’ve got everything planned out.”

He then pulled out his mobile phone and called Chen Yufei. Once the call connected, he quickly stated, “Zhou Liangyun has spent 300,000 yuan to buy the bronze Buddha. Make sure to publicize this widely!”
