Chapter 38 Fifty Dollars and Five Hundred Thousand

In addition to Zhu Motang, there were four or five classmates following Zhu Motang, and Ren Li was among them.

Seeing Yu Wan, Ren Li was surprised, "Yu Wan? Why are you here?"

Yu Wan smiled faintly, "I'm bored, come and take a look."

Ren Li smiled and covered his mouth. "Yu Wan, you came here to look for Mo Tang, right? Just tell the truth. There's no need to say one thing and mean another."

Everyone knew that Zhu Motang isolated Yu Wan in the group yesterday. How could she bear that? She must have come here to seek reconciliation.

The study committee member knew Mo Tang's whereabouts. She could find out by asking the study committee member. It was really difficult for her to follow him here.

When Zhu Motang heard Ren Li's words, he curled the corner of his mouth sarcastically and looked at Yu Wan.

She also felt that Yu Wan had gone to great lengths to find her. It was understandable that he was aloof in school. After all, he had not been beaten by society and did not know the importance of money. He was ignorant of the immensity of the world. After working for a few years, he would be taught a lesson.

She was waiting to see Yu Wan bending for money, and also to let Zhou Jingchi take a good look at what a pretty face is like, and that people can do anything for money.

That’s right, Zhu Motang likes Zhou Jingchi. Zhou Jingchi is not from their Class 2, but from Class 1. Besides, Zhou Jingchi is the school idol and always ranks first in his grade.

Zhu Motang was very unhappy that such a person was interested in Yu Wan.

That's why she has to compare herself with Yu Wan in every aspect, as if this is the only way to prove her own charm.

Yu Wan didn't know the inside story. She only knew that Zhu Motang was hostile to her. As for Zhou Jingchi and others, she didn't have much contact with them. She only knew that they were in the same class and their grades were always ranked first in the grade.

Yu Wan was very busy throughout high school. If Zhu Motang had not been in the same class with her and they saw each other every day, she would not have had the time to feel the other's hostility.

Ren Li saw that Yu Wan didn't say anything, so he just thought she agreed, and laughed in his heart, "Your temper is still as awkward as before, and you say one thing and mean another."

Yu Wan found it quite funny. She didn’t understand why there were always some people who liked to self-righteously speculate on other people’s thoughts, as if they were more knowledgeable than the person involved.

She suddenly thought of something and said to Ren Li, "If you insist on thinking this way, then I can't help it. I have something else to do. Excuse me."

After saying that, he turned and left.

Making money is important. Saying one more word is a waste of time. Time is money, time is life. Wasting time is stealing money and killing people.

Seeing Yu Wan turn around and leave, Ren Li was stunned for a moment, then laughed angrily, "She is someone who can't even get off the stage. She has been working in society for so long, has no one taught her the principles of life?"

A hint of coldness flashed across Zhu Motang's eyes, and he walked away with his lips pursed.

Ren Li hurried to catch up, and the others looked at him awkwardly before following.

However, after Yu Wan found the antique shop, she indeed saw the pair of Qing Dynasty jade bracelets at the door, placed among other sundries, looking very inconspicuous.

Good jade bracelets also need maintenance. They will look good only if they are well maintained. If you put them randomly like this, it will really be like covering a pearl with dust.

After Yu Wan found the target, he did not buy it immediately, but walked around and looked around first, just like millions of ordinary tourists.

Seeing that it was almost time, she walked slowly towards the Jinsheng store and picked up something from the stall when the annoying voice sounded again behind her.

"puff!"

"Yu Wan, if you want to buy this kind of thing, you might as well go to a jewelry store and buy jewelry. It's more presentable."

"But the cheapest jewelry costs two to three thousand, and the most expensive ones cost tens of thousands. It's not bad to buy fake jewelry like this for a few dozen dollars to decorate yourself. If you meet someone who doesn't know the value of the jewelry, just say it's an antique. Maybe someone will believe you."

It was Ren Li's voice. Somehow they had ended up here as well.

Yu Wan was very annoyed. Why did she meet such mentally ill people wherever she went?

Even the best-tempered person can't stand it.

"Ren Li, are you seriously ill? You have to tell others what they do. What I bought has nothing to do with you. Did I use your money? What qualifications do you have to make such a fuss here?"

Ren Li didn't expect Yu Wan to fight back. For a moment, he just felt ashamed and embarrassed, but he couldn't think of any words to refute her, and his face turned red.

Of course she couldn't think of any rebuttal, because Yu Wan's rebuttal was well-founded.

After that, Yu Wan didn't even look at them and directly picked up the pair of jade bracelets, "Boss, how much are these?"

The boss came out, took a look and said nonchalantly, "Fifty dollars for one price."

Zhu Motang walked into the store, pointed at a pair of earrings in the display cabinet and asked, "How much is this?"

When the boss saw that Zhu Motang was wearing something different and was looking at something in the store, his attitude immediately changed. "These are pure natural pearl earrings from the Tang Dynasty. They are worth a fortune."

Zhu Motang picked it up and looked at it. "How much is it?"

"Five hundred thousand for one price."

As soon as these words came out, Ren Li and his people were shocked, "So expensive?!"

The boss smiled and said, "Of course real antiques are expensive, but the point is that these earrings were once worn by Concubine Yang Guifei, so they have a different meaning."

After hearing what the boss said, Zhu Motang didn't say anything. She just waved towards a place not far away, and someone came over to help her check the goods.

Everyone then realized that Zhu Motang had actually brought other people with him, but they had been following behind without anyone noticing.

The person who was looking at the goods looked left and right, then nodded, "It's an antique."

Then he whispered again, "But whether it was Concubine Yang who brought her remains to be verified."

Zhu Motang also came here after hearing the news. Since this is a real antique, it should be very likely to be true.

"Is there any evidence that it was worn by Concubine Yang?"

The boss was not in a hurry. "If you don't believe me, ask some experts to come and take a look. In this business, it's all about taste. If you think it's worth it, buy it. If not, don't buy it. It's fair."

If you buy it, you have to accept it no matter what the result is.

Zhu Motang gritted his teeth and immediately took out his bank card to buy it.

If it is confirmed to be genuine by professional appraisal, then her half a million could be exchanged for several million.

Zhu Motang paid the five hundred thousand so straightforwardly.

On Yu Wan's side, he simply scanned the QR code and paid fifty yuan.

Such a sharp contrast will make anyone who sees it sigh with emotion.

Sometimes the difference between people is just that big.

Fifty dollars would make most people hesitate, but to rich people, five hundred thousand is just like fifty dollars.

It's just that Zhu Motang spending five hundred thousand would make people envious, but Yu Wan spending fifty yuan would make people feel vain.

If you don't have money, just live an honest life. Being frugal can make people look up to you. Why do you have to buy some fake antiques?

If it's not vanity, what is it?

The looks those classmates gave Yu Wan also became subtle. They had felt sympathy for Zhu Motang when he publicly dissed Yu Wan in the group yesterday, but now it seemed that there must be something hateful about a pitiful person.

Yu Wan had no idea what these classmates were thinking. She went straight back after buying the things. The auction would start at 8pm, so they had to register early!
