Hu Yuan looked at Fatty Wang and said jokingly, "We would appreciate it if Boss Wang would buy this car market so we can all see what it's like."
Wang Pangzi's face darkened even more after being choked by Hu Yuan's words. His wife, standing motionless, looked extremely displeased upon hearing Hu Yuan's mockery. Grabbing Wang Pangzi's ear, she said, "You son of a bitch! Serves you right for pretending! Now look what's happened! Not only have you offended the big shot, but you might bankrupt our family! Apologize to him right now!"
Wang Pangzi howled in pain as she pinched him. When his wife released him, he knelt on the ground, pretending to slap himself while saying, "Sir, I'm sorry, I was blind to your greatness, I'm so sorry."
Hu Yuan squatted down and pretended to be shocked, mocking, "Oh dear! How can you kneel down before me? You're a rich man, I'm just a poor man, I can only afford one Crown, you can buy the whole car market!"
While bowing and slapping himself, Fatty Wang kept saying, "Grandpa, I was wrong, I'm sorry, Grandpa!"
Hu Yuan knew he had no money; people like him, who were so materialistic, usually didn't have much money! After a while, the accountant also came out, and he was shocked when he saw Hu Yuan's bag of money!
After seeing the accountant's name, Hu Yuan said, "Manager Zhang, please give me some money. I need to pick up the car now."
Manager Zhang hurriedly asked the accountant to count the money. After counting the money, there was still more than 400,000 yuan left in the bag! Hu Yuan drove the mother and daughter to eat. On the way, Hu Yuan saw an antique stall. Hu Yuan got out of the car and took the mother and daughter to the antique stall.
His wife noticed that Hu Yuan wanted to buy these "junk pieces" and said, "Let's go. Why are you looking at this stuff? Don't waste your money!"
Hu Yuan couldn't help but laugh at his wife's worried expression as she looked at him, worried he might spend money. You know, finding a good antique in the antique world can be incredibly lucrative!
Hu Yuan didn't say it directly. At this moment, a simply dressed person walked towards Hu Yuan and his group.
"What, young man, you're here treasure hunting too?"
Hu Yuan smiled and nodded.
"Young man, what do you think of that box that holds insects?" The man pointed to the black box containing crickets!
Hu Yuan squatted down and picked up the box. When he saw the structure inside, a thought flashed through his mind: he felt like he had seen this thing somewhere before!
He asked the shopkeeper if they had a flashlight, but the shopkeeper shook his head; after all, flashlights were a luxury item these days! The man next to him took a flashlight out of his bag and gave it to Hu Yuan. Hu Yuan took the flashlight and shone it on the inside corner of the box! He remembered...
"This is a black gold antique box!" Hu Yuan frowned slightly and asked the shopkeeper the price of the box. The shopkeeper curled his lip and said:
Hey young man, this box is something my old man got when he was a scorpion hunter. If you want a discount, it'll be 500 yuan!
Wang Man saw that Hu Yuan wanted to buy the box, so she tugged at his hand and said: "Spending 500 yuan on a box? Even if you have money, you can't spend it like that!"
Hu Yuan laughed when he saw Wang Man's expression!
“Wife, there’s a lot to know about this box,” Hu Yuan said seriously.
He then took out 500 yuan from his bag, threw it to the shopkeeper, and started playing with the box in his hand!
The man next to Hu Yuan looked at him and asked, "Young man, this box is just black, so how come it's worth so much, according to you?"
“This box isn’t black, it’s gold,” Hu Yuan said, his eyes still fixed on the box.
"Young man, your eyesight isn't very good, is it? This thing is black."
“Yeah, honey, it’s clearly black,” Wang Man said, looking at Hu Yuan with surprise, but more of a complaint.
Hu Yuan asked the shop owner for a wet wipe and wiped the box a few times. To his surprise, the black box was actually gold!
Because Hu Yuan had the ability to appraise treasures in his previous life, he could tell at a glance what this box looked like. The black gold ancient box was a rare item!
Wang Man and the person next to her both gaped wide when they saw the box turn gold!
“Young man, hello, my name is Wilde, you can call me Uncle Wilde. This...this black...gold box, how much do you estimate it to be?” Wilde stammered.
Hu Yuan thought for a moment and replied: Uncle De, my name is Hu Yuan, this black gold ancient box is probably worth 10 million!
"One...ten million...ten million..." Wang Man covered her mouth, afraid of revealing the secret of the box.
The shopkeeper looked at the box and felt a pang of heartache! Damn it, I should have known better than to sell it! What a damn bad luck!
"Young man, look, I'll buy this box for 15 million," Oscar Wilde said, looking at Hu Yuan.
Wang Man was even more dumbfounded. Fifteen million for a box?
Hu Yuan looked at the box and said, "This won't do, this won't do. If you want it, I'll give you 5 million."
Just as Wilde was about to raise the price, he heard this sentence and almost jumped up!
"Young man, really... really?" Wilde stammered.
Hu Yuan smiled faintly and handed the box to Wilde.
Seeing this, Erde quickly grasped Hu Yuan's hand and said, "Young man, thank you so much. If you ever need anything, come find me at No. 34 Antique Street. Thanks, brother! Here's a card with 5 million in it." He then took a bank card from his pocket and gave it to Hu Yuan.
Hu Yuan took the bank card, said thank you, and then got into the car with Wang Man.
Inside the car, Wang Man excitedly hugged Hu Yuan, exclaiming, "Honey, 500 yuan suddenly became 5 million! Isn't that amazing?" Tuantuan looked at the two of them and asked, "What are Daddy and Mommy doing?"
"What nonsense are you asking, child?" Wang Man's face turned bright red!
Hu Yuan laughed and said: This is nothing, the key is that he owes me a favor!
"What good would it do for him to owe you a favor?" Wang Man asked.
Hu Yuan shook his head without answering. He knew that this guy named Wilde was definitely not simple!
Upon arriving at the restaurant, Hu Yuan led the mother and daughter to a table. The waiter looked at them with disdain and mocked, "Poor bastards, don't you even know your own worth? You come here to eat! And you've brought a prostitute with you. That woman must think this man is so rich."
Upon hearing this, Hu Yuan's gaze instantly turned icy. Dragons have their scales, touching them means certain death; phoenixes have their necks, ruthless to be touched, leading to certain demise. Wang Man and Tuantuan were Hu Yuan's scales. Hu Yuan walked straight towards the waiter, who was startled by the look in his eyes.
"What...what are you doing? I'm telling you, don't touch me. I have Brother Tiger upstairs, I'm not afraid of you," the waiter said, backing away as he tried to intimidate Hu Yuan.
"Are you threatening me?" he said, slapping the waiter across the face. "This slap is the consequence of you insulting my wife." He then slapped him again!
"This slap is the consequence of your threat to me," Hu Yuan said, turning back to his seat without looking back.
Just then, a burly man entered through the door. Hu Yuan recognized him immediately—it was Fatty Wang! The waiter on the floor jumped up and shouted at Fatty Wang, "Brother Hu, Brother Hu, you're finally here! You know what? This guy just slapped me without warning! I even spoke up for you, but it was no use!" He pointed at Hu Yuan, his expression as if he were looking at a dead man!
