Chapter: 134
Li Tai Lai shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said: "The Song family's little madam has quite the temper, I see."
"Alright, let's just calm down..." The middle-aged man sitting at the round table in the eastern position frowned and said. "We're all here for business, not to fight. Let's just relax..."
"And you, young man, can join us too."
Song Wan Ting hummed a sound and only slowly sat down.
Ye Chen also took his seat, then Song Wan Ting leaned over to him and whispered: "That Li Tai Lai is the richest man in Hai City, the one beside him is Guo Ming, a very powerful fengshui master. The one who just spoke is Qin Gang, the patriarch of Jinling's Qin family. Their house has been having some troubles lately..."
Ye Chen only noticed this when he saw Li Tai Lai sitting next to an elderly man wearing a green Tang-style robe.
The old man had a head full of silver hair and gave off an otherworldly aura, exuding a sense of mystery that even Ye Chen couldn't penetrate. He hadn't opened his eyes since the two men arrived.
As they reached this point, Song Wan Ting stopped speaking and just nodded. Ye Chen had a curious mind, but he didn't dare ask any more questions.
After everyone was seated, a fat man with luxurious clothes sitting on the other side of the table finally smiled and said, "Now that we've settled the matter, let's take a look at this stuff quickly. You're all big shots, so you don't need to waste too much time on something like this."
Qin Gang sneered coldly and said, "As long as this thing can really do what you say it can - adjust the feng shui, calm one's mind and concentrate one's spirit - I won't even care about the price of a few million."
The fat man looked at him once before placing an ancient-looking wooden box on the table.
Inside the box was a block of blood-red jade emitting a warm glow, with a style that seemed old-fashioned. As soon as it was taken out, everyone felt a cozy atmosphere filling the grand hall.
Qin Gang's eyes lit up immediately.
Song Wan Ting turned to ask Old Cai, "Old Cai, what do you think of this jade?"
Old Cai gazed for a moment before nodding and saying, "It should be fine. It's pre-Tang dynasty blood-red jade, and it looks like something cultivated by a high-ranking monk over a long period."
Song Wan Ting nodded and turned to ask Leaf Chen, "Mr. Leaf, what do you think?"
Leaf Chen smirked and said, "Fake..."
Old Cai let out a cold sneer and scolded, "Young one, who gave you the courage to speak so freely in front of so many people?"
The old man beside Li Tai's shoulder, Guo Ming, also widened his eyes and looked at the ancient jade, asking, "Can I touch it?"
Fatso disdained with a cold laugh and said, "Guo Uncle, are you playing jokes with me? You don't know how to handle jade? Even ordinary jade can't be handled by someone like you, let alone this piece which is blood-red jade from the Zhou dynasty, fragile as it may be?"
Guo Ming was taken aback for a moment before saying, "I'm sorry for being impertinent..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he also moved to stand beside the ancient jade and looked at it carefully. After a moment, he closed his eyes and pondered for a long time before nodding and saying, "I don't know if this is from the Zhou dynasty or not, but the concept of adjusting wind and water, being calm-minded, and concentrated, should be true."
The instant this was spoken, everyone's heart was filled with fiery passion.
To them, what history this jade has had is actually irrelevant; the important thing is what kind of effect it has.
Old Cai smiled and said, "Guo Uncle also has good eyesight, unlike those who are incompetent and try to pretend to be something they're not." JrNovels.com
