[Delicate Beauty + Rough Han Military Officer] (Fictional Military Marriage + Bringing Kids to Join the Army + Substitute Marriage + Stepmother + Dual Chastity)
Gifted medical student Chu Yue...
The pottery jar was passed from Qin Yue's hand to Shopkeeper Zhang's. Shopkeeper Zhang looked around and handed it to Shopkeeper Li. The three of them examined it carefully.
When the three of them looked up and looked at each other again, their expressions were completely different.
While the atmosphere was solemn, there was excitement hidden in his eyes.
There is no other pottery jar of this era circulating on the market except those in museums.
Qin Yue carefully put down the pottery jar, then slowly looked up at Chu Yue and asked the previous question again.
"Comrade Chu, how much did you pay for this pottery jar?"
"Five hundred." Chu Yue said.
In fact, it only cost three hundred. Chu Yue could see that the middle-aged woman was in trouble, and she could also smell the scent of Chinese herbs on her body. She probably thought that someone in her family was sick, so she had to sell the heirloom.
So she counter-offered and gave a total of five hundred.
Chu Yue raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, "Qin Yue, do you think these five hundred yuan are worth it?"
"Worth it! Absolutely worth it!" Qin Yue affirmed loudly.
Shopkeeper Zhang couldn't help but say, "Comrade Chu, our shop collects all kinds of antiques. If you want to sell this pottery jar of yours, you can sell it to us."
They are not only businessmen, but also people in the industry. Seeing such a rare treasure, who wouldn't want to get it?
Qin Yue frowned, not very happy with what Shopkeeper Zhang said. After all, this was a treasure that Chu Yue had just found.
Little did she know that Chu Yue was very interested in Manager Zhang's proposal.
After all, the pottery jar was a treasure to her, but no matter how good a treasure was, it was not as good as exchanging it for money, and Chu Yue had something she wanted more in her heart.
So when Qin Yue frowned, Chu Yue asked, "How much are you asking?"
Qin Yue was surprised.
Shopkeeper Zhang and Shopkeeper Li glanced at each other and immediately showed excitement. Their eyes turned to Qin Yue. After all, Qin Yue was the young master, and it was Qin Yue who made the final decision.
"Young Master, with this treasure, it can be the treasure of our Qin family antique shop."
"Master, this thing is extremely rare. If you miss it, there will be no next chance. You must get it."
Qin Yue hesitated for a moment, then asked Chu Yue, "Do you really want to sell it?"
Chu Yue said, "Well, if the price is good, I can sell it."
Qin Yue whispered a few words to the two shopkeepers, then stretched out a hand towards Chu Yue and said, "Fifty thousand."
This price is definitely high in the industry, but Qin Yue is happy with it, after all, Chu Yue is his savior.
When the amount of fifty thousand was mentioned, even Lu Zhanlin was stunned.
From five hundred to fifty thousand, it only took an hour.
Just... a clay pot that looks like it's made of earth?
Chu Yue did not give a conclusion immediately, but suddenly changed the subject and asked about another matter.
"Qin Yue, you were born and raised in the capital, and you work in this field. Let me ask you, how much does a courtyard house in the capital cost right now?"
"I'm not sure about this. Shopkeeper Li is familiar with it. Let him tell me."
Shopkeeper Li said, "Ordinary small courtyard houses range from 30,000 to 50,000 yuan, and larger ones can cost over 100,000 yuan."
Chu Yue nodded and had an idea in mind.
"Qin Yue, I don't want money. Let's barter. I'll give you this pottery jar, and I want a courtyard house in the capital city. The price is right, and the area doesn't have to be too big, just enough for our family of three... just enough for our family to live in."
Chu Yue quickly changed her words because they would soon no longer be a family of three.
Qin Yue asked, "Do you want a quadrangle?"
"Well, I've been eyeing those courtyard houses since I arrived in the capital. But I don't have any connections, and Lu Zhanlin and I aren't considered suitable to buy them, so I can only ask you for help." Chu Yue said, "Qin Yue, do you think it's okay?"
Qin Yue patted his chest and said, "Okay! Of course! It's just a quadrangle courtyard. I have plenty of them. If you want to see the house, I can take you there this afternoon."
Just like that, when they walked out of the antique shop, they had one less baggage and one more courtyard house.
Qin Yue did what he said and took Chu Yue and others to look at houses. They looked at three or four houses in a row without talking about the price. As long as Chu Yue liked it, she would choose.
Chu Yue avoided Qin Yue and only talked with Manager Li. She chose a courtyard house with a suitable location and price and signed a sales contract with Qin Yue.
The courtyard house was acquired, and the precious pottery jar belonged to Qin Yue.
After walking out of the courtyard, Lu Zhanlin became dazed... This house actually became their home, and it was in the capital city. If he told others about it, no one would believe it.
Qin Yue was very happy about this deal and was still talking about treating Chu Yue to a meal at the restaurant he thought was the best.
"Qin Yue, thank you for today. Let's forget about dinner, Zhan Lin and I have something to do tonight."
"Is that so..." Qin Yue felt it was a pity.
Chu Yue mentioned that they were about to leave the capital city and there would be no chance to meet again after today.
The group could only part ways in front of the courtyard.
Before Qin Yue left, Chu Yue reminded him.
"Qin Yue, is the calligraphy and painting hanging in the middle of your shop an authentic work by Huang Tingjian?"
"It's Huang Tingjian's calligraphy, for sure. My dad spent two gold bars and traveled all the way to the northwest to buy it back. It's been hanging in the shop for decades. What's wrong with it?"
"I think there's something wrong with that calligraphy. You should get it appraised again."
Chu Yue has figured out the rules of the Lingbao space. The more precious and valuable the item is, the more likely it is to have the special effect of colorful white light.
Just now, when Qin Yue treated them to Coke, many things emitted a faint light, but the most conspicuous calligraphy in the middle was dim.
One has to doubt it.
If an expert hung a fake painting in his store for decades without being discovered, people would probably laugh if they told others about it.
Chu Yue just gave this reminder. Whether or not to believe it was Qin Yue's business.
When Qin Yue heard Chu Yue's words, he didn't have time to think any more and quickly pulled Manager Li away.
That calligraphy had been hanging there since he was born, but he hadn't bothered to look at it for decades. After all, his father boasted a lot, saying that it must be an authentic work of Huang Tingjian.
No one dared to doubt what the master said. They had been used to it for so many years.
What if it’s true or false?
Since she met Chu Yue, she has never missed a single thing.
"Let's go! Go home!"
Young Master Qin was in a hurry and rushed back to clean up his father's mess, which was decades ago.
Chu Yue looked back at her courtyard, and Lu Zhanlin and Lu Yuanbao also looked back.
Lu Yuanbao said in a daze, "Mom, Uncle Qin said this house belongs to us. Is what he said true?"
"Of course it's true. But this matter is a secret. It must be kept secret and cannot be told to anyone else."
"Even Dazhuang can't say it?"
"If you tell Dazhuang, then you've just told the whole compound." Chu Yue knew Chen Dazhuang's character well. "It's fine if we just keep it to ourselves. It's called not showing off your wealth."
Lu Yuanbao remembered the saying "Don't show off your wealth", which Chu Yue had taught her a long time ago.
Everything was done. Chu Yue touched her stomach and said, "Let's go. I'm hungry. Let's find a restaurant to eat. Let's celebrate our finding a great treasure and have a good meal tonight."
"Can I still have roast duck?"
"Sure! You can eat one by yourself~"
