Chapter 1692 Heavy Losses

Chapter 1692 Heavy Losses

Guanzhou Cheng refused, and everyone became excited. Someone bumped into the chest of drawers, and a porcelain vase on it fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

The prefect of Guanzhou took the opportunity to make trouble, and scolded them harshly, insisting that the porcelain vase was worth one thousand and two taels of silver and demanded compensation from them.

This aroused the anger of the crowd. They were so furious that no one knew who started the fight first, but they started pushing and shoving each other and started fighting.

The whole living room was in chaos.

Both Guanzhou Cheng and the housekeeper were beaten so hard that they cried out in pain and couldn't even shout for help.

When the servants outside rushed in, everyone scattered and ran away.

The things in the room had been looted and smashed, leaving it in a mess. Even the jade pendant that Guanzhou Cheng wore around his waist had been snatched away.

Mrs. Guan, who was hiding in the back, had heard the noisy noise outside a long time ago, but she was so frightened that she dared not move, let alone run out to help. She also forgot to call Nanny Ding and others to come out to help.

After the looting and smashing outside had ended, she screamed "Ah!" and rushed out in a hurry.

Seeing the overturned furniture, broken porcelain all over the floor, and her husband sitting on the ground with his body twisted and two servants helping him to get up, Mrs. Guan screamed, "Oh my God! What a sin!"

She rushed forward to help her husband up. Nanny Ding and Zhenzhu quickly brought up a chair and helped Guanzhou Cheng, who had bruises on his face and was groaning in pain all over his body, to sit down.

"Master, are you okay? Those lowly bastards are so bold! I'll have them all arrested and put in jail!"

Mrs. Guan was worried about her husband, and she felt distressed when she saw the mess on the ground: "Oh, how could it be turned into this? It's outrageous, it's really outrageous, it's outrageous..."

Although these porcelain and jade pieces are not real rare antiques, they are still of some value if they can be placed in a living room.

The pair of plum vases with flowers in their hairpins were worth over a hundred taels of silver, and there was also a green jade mountain with landscape figures and a white jade Taiping chime with ivory, which were worth eighty taels and one hundred and ten taels respectively. The others, which were not as valuable as these, were also worth dozens of taels, so when added up they were a lot.

And these furnitures were all kicked over and fell to the ground, with many bumps and bruises. Some of them were not obvious, and they could still be used after putting cushions on them and having them repaired by a craftsman. But some of them could not be repaired and had to be replaced with new ones.

The loss this time is at least two thousand and several hundred taels of silver!

Mrs. Guan kept scolding and was so distressed that she almost cried.

Guanzhou Cheng groaned for a while before the pain gradually subsided, but he broke out in a cold sweat every time he moved his left arm, which was most likely a fracture.

He quickly asked someone to call a doctor.

When I looked up, I saw that the landscape painting hanging on the wall was torn in half, with only the other half still hanging there!

Guanzhou Cheng shouted, "Ah!" "My painting! My painting!"

This painting was painted by a famous artist from the previous dynasty. He gritted his teeth and bought it specifically for showing off. All the things in this room combined are not as valuable as this painting.

But now, it's only half left!

"Bastard! Bastard!" Guanzhou Cheng trembled, couldn't catch his breath, and fainted.

Mrs. Guan was so frightened that she screamed and shouted "Master!"

The doctor finally arrived, and Guanzhou Cheng also woke up before that.
