Inside the glass case are a lotus bowl made of pure gold, a bronze Pegasus, a gold-spitting ornament, and a gold-inlaid gemstone dagger.
Chen Jiuyun was stunned for a few seconds when she saw the four exhibits.
Even Mr. Chen, who was sitting in the VIP box, put down his teacup, utterly shocked.
"Four ancient antiques, including an eight-petaled lotus bowl used by the imperial family, are so well preserved!"
"Zishan, this is bigger and more complex in craftsmanship than the set you brought back before, right? And those bronze galloping horse and ornaments, are they all from Mr. Chu's early collection?"
At this moment, Chen Jiuyun took out the gold-inlaid jade and gemstone short sword, drew it in front of everyone, revealing the name of the person engraved on the blade in large standard characters—Qin Heng.
Qin Heng is the name of the ruler of the Great Gan Dynasty!
Chu Xiao actually has something like this!
Old Chen stood up from his chair, his beard trembling with excitement.
"It's an imperial sword, a short sword bestowed by the King of Daqian! Its historical value far exceeds its auction value. Have Chu Xiao sell these four items to me directly, without bidding on them."
Huo Zishan smiled.
“Grandpa, I know what you’re thinking, but the rules for putting the collections on stage can’t be changed.”
"How about this: let Jiu Yun be auctioned off normally, and no matter how much others bid, the Chen family will have an extra million. This way, we respect the participants and don't mistreat Young Master Chu. What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen gave an awkward laugh.
"That's fine, whatever the cost, the Chen family will pay."
On stage, Chu Xiao was unaware of Huo Zishan and Old Master Chen's plans. He was led by Chen Jiuyun to stand in the center of the stage. As the spotlight shone on the four collectibles, it also shone on him.
Upon seeing him, Zhao Qian was so startled that he stood up from his stool.
impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
How could Chu Xiao possibly possess four antiques from the Great Qian period?
As luck would have it, in order to curry favor with CEO Meng Xingchen, he also joined the Da Gan Wen Hua Research Association, so he knew quite a bit about Da Gan Wen Hua.
Originally, he came today hoping to use the antiques to get to know the CEO of Mengxingchen.
Unfortunately, after searching all over the country, no antiques related to the Great Gan Dynasty could be found, so we could only try our luck with a Song Dynasty antique.
Now that Chu Xiao has brought four collectibles, all of which are legendary treasures, he might actually be able to meet the owner of Meng Xingchen and successfully reclaim the Chu family business.
Shen Qingqing looked at Chu Xiao with even greater surprise.
Impossible! How could Chu Xiao be doing so well?
She had been with Chu Xiao for several years and had never heard of him owning any antiques.
Although Chen Jiuyun was surprised, she did not show it on her face, and only asked Chu Xiao with a smile.
"Mr. Chu, would you mind telling me about the origins of these items?"
Chu Xiao smiled calmly.
"I bought them when I was young and didn't know any better, just because they were pretty."
Chen Jiuyun: "..."
The audience: ?! Damn, I'm so envious and jealous!
Zhao Qian couldn't stand his pretentious attitude and stood up to question, "Bullshit! These things look so new, how could they be antiques? They must be modern replicas!"
Shen Qingqing quickly stood up as well.
"As far as I know, after Chu Xiao's father passed away, he owed billions of yuan to banks and major partners. Chu Xiao was penniless and had even been reduced to delivering food. How could he possibly have acquired so many antiques?"
