Chapter 27 Alfie Antique Market



To be honest, the fee that Fatty charged for handling this money was really low. This was his father's company. If a money laundering organization was to handle this money, they would be kind if they didn't charge you 30%...

Just as Fatty was dealing with the money, the annual school season arrived again.

There are three long holidays a year when studying at a university in the UK. The first is the three-week Easter holiday, which is around the end of March or the beginning of April every year; the second is the three-week Christmas holiday.

As for the last and longest holiday, it is summer vacation.

The summer vacation at British universities is longer than that at domestic universities. It starts around late June every year, and school does not start until late September.

Yang Jing and Fatty are both graduate students now. Although most master's programs in the UK can be graduated in one year, the major they are studying requires two years to graduate, which is different from most master's programs that only take one year.

Yang Jing and Fatty had submitted their graduation thesis as early as June, and they will not receive their diplomas until November. So even though the new school year has begun, it doesn't matter to them whether school starts or not.

Yang Jing was forced by his father to study in the UK, so as long as he got his diploma, Yang Jing would definitely not stay in the UK. As for the fat man, he has been studying in the UK for six years, and completing a master's degree is already his limit. If he is asked to continue to study for a doctorate, the fat man might go crazy on the spot.

So for both of them, now they just have to wait for their thesis to be passed and get their diplomas.

The Fatty Dad's men were quite capable. Less than five days after they had put the money into operation, Yang Jing's cell phone received two messages, one from a domestic bank card and the other from a HSBC bank card.

The information from China made Yang Jing very excited. After all, the number was too huge. According to the current exchange rate of 1:8.29 between the British pound and the national currency, the two million pounds could be exchanged for 16.58 million national currency! Almost in an instant, Yang Jing turned into a multimillionaire.

As for the HSBC bank card, 270,000 pounds were transferred into it. This was left according to Yang Jing's request. In the next two months, Yang Jing would rely on this 270,000 pounds to live in the UK.

Although it was only a small amount, 270,000 pounds was still a huge sum of money that Yang Jing had never touched before. He had lived in the UK for two years and had not spent a total of 50,000 pounds. Now that he was about to leave the UK, he suddenly had 270,000 pounds in his bank account, so he could spend as much as he wanted.

A big meal is a must, but unfortunately, although London has the largest Chinatown in the UK, there is no excellent Shandong cuisine restaurant like Lao Sun's. If Cardiff was not a bit far from London, Yang Jing really wanted to go to Lao Sun's for a big meal again.

Now that he was well fed and had money in his pocket, Yang Jing could no longer suppress his restless heart.

Early the next morning, Yang Jing plunged into the Alfie Antique Market on Church Street in London.

Alfie Antique Market is an antique market that has only emerged in recent years. It mainly sells furniture, jewelry, second-hand books, posters, toys, lighting and other items, among which there are many rare treasures.

Of course, it is very difficult to find a bargain in this kind of market. Although there are antiques that are hundreds of years old in this market, such things are basically regarded as the treasures of the store by merchants, and it is almost impossible to find a bargain.

However, Yang Jing still insisted on coming to this market, not for anything else, but to thoroughly understand how the ring should absorb energy.

Ever since he learned about the magic of this holy ring, Yang Jing has been troubled by the ring's absorption of energy.

The ring is indeed very magical. It is no exaggeration to say that if there were no energy restrictions, this ring could definitely turn Yang Jing into a tycoon-level figure in the antique and cultural relics world in a short period of time.

Yang Jing had never doubted this.

The first time the ring showed its power, it discovered three Picasso sketches, which were eventually sold for a high price of 2.7 million pounds.

If the ring could continue to work its magic, Yang Jing was confident that he could sweep all antique markets in the UK in a short period of time, and his hands would cramp just from picking up bargains.

But the problem is that the ring needs energy support to work. Although Yang Jing has guessed the source of the energy, he is completely stumped as to how to absorb the energy.

In Yang Jing's words, this ring is good in every way except for one thing. Can you at least give me a hint?

Without any hints, you can only figure things out by yourself, feeling your way across the river.

Before, whether in Cardiff Castle or in Greenwich Handicraft Market, Yang Jing had clearly felt the powerful energy contained in those antique artifacts, but the ring was unable to absorb it.

Yang Jing also felt the same situation in those three Picasso sketches.

Yang Jing clearly remembered that when the ring discovered the three Picasso sketches, his left hand also felt the warm energy. However, before buying the batch of books, the ring was unable to absorb the energy from the three sketches. It was not until it successfully bought the more than 200 books that the ring was able to absorb energy from the three paintings.

Comparing his experiences at Cardiff Castle and Greenwich Craft Market, Yang Jing had to wonder whether the reason why the ring could detect energy but was unable to absorb it was related to the ownership of those antiques.

Could it be that only if the antiques and collectibles belong to you completely can the ring absorb the precious energy contained in them?

It was with this idea that Yang Jing decided to give it a try today.

I didn't try it before because I didn't have enough money to buy antiques that cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of pounds.

Now that I have money in my pocket, I have to give it a try.

It might be a waste of a lot of money, but once this guess is confirmed, we will know how to replenish the energy of the holy ring in the future.

Compared to the Holy Ring, what does a little money mean? As long as the Holy Ring has enough energy, it means unlimited possibilities of picking up bargains. As long as you pick up bargains a few more times in the market, you can make back any money you have.

It was for this reason that Yang Jing plunged headfirst into the Alfie Antique Market.

Although Alfie Antique Market is a new antique market, and the items sold there are not cheap, there are very few fakes here. Compared with those flea markets, Alfie Antique Market is undoubtedly much better.

Unlike other flea markets, there are basically no open-air stalls in the Alfie Antique Market, and all the merchants here are in their own shops.

After Yang Jing entered the market, he wandered around casually and found a shop selling miscellaneous items and walked in.

PS: I bow to thank "Invincible Elephant" for the 10,000-yuan reward! He is also an old brother, who has been following me since "Tank"!
