Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk! Chapter 271: Chapter 271 Selling to You for a Low Price

"Wait a second, I'll have the boss bring it out right away," Yang Jingsheng said.

"Okay, let the boss bring it out," Xu Yang felt it was no big deal to take a look; after all, it wouldn't waste much ti.

The two sat down on the chairs in the store to rest.

Yang Jingsheng spoke to the middle-aged man behind the counter, "Boss, let's go get that treasure from the back hall."

While speaking, he made faces at the man.

The middle-aged boss didn't understand what Yang Jingsheng was up to; there was no treasure in the back hall.

However, based on Yang Jingsheng's facial expressions, he figured out what Yang Jingsheng ant—to go to the back hall together, where Yang Jingsheng would explain everything.

"Okay."

The middle-aged boss nodded and followed Yang Jingsheng into the back hall.

"What exactly are you up to?" the middle-aged boss asked.

"Boss, isn't there a small lion statue in the corner of our back hall? You said you've had it for a long ti, that it's from the Republic era. Sell it to that guy," Yang Jingsheng said.

"Who exactly is that person?" the middle-aged boss asked.

"He's the boss of Riverbed Salvage, Xu Yang," Yang Jingsheng said.

"What, it's him?!" the middle-aged boss exclaid in shock.

"That guy once ca to Antique Street and hit the jackpot by finding a huge loophole. This ti he's here with his wife, probably to make her happy. Sell this thing to him and make a good profit," Yang Jingsheng said.

"Does he really not know antiques?" the middle-aged boss asked.

If he understood antiques, this item definitely couldn't be sold.

"He doesn't know shit. Don't let his current status fool you; I know what he was like before better than anyone," Yang Jingsheng said with a sneer, his face full of disdain.

"Oh, it looks like your relationship with him is quite complex. Tell , what's your relationship? How co you know him so well?" the middle-aged boss asked curiously.

"In the past, my half-sister was his girlfriend. They broke up later, and after that, the guy made it big," Yang Jingsheng said with considerable irritation.

If Zhao Yulu hadn't broken up with Xu Yang, he would now be Xu Yang's brother-in-law.

In Xu Yang's company, landing a high-level managent position wouldn't have been a problem.

There would definitely have been many company beauties willing to climb into his bed.

What a pity, Zhao Yulu broke up with Xu Yang, and all that beca nothing but wishful thinking.

Not only that, but because of Xu Yang, his life beca increasingly difficult; he had to co to Antique Street to work.

"So you have that kind of relationship. Even so, with your relationship with him, asking him for a job shouldn't be a problem. Why would you co work here?" the middle-aged boss asked, puzzled.

"It's a long story. That guy ca from a small county town, started with nothing. When my sister introduced him to , I looked down on him. But who would have thought, after they split up, he sohow struck it rich and soared high. Now he's a billionaire, so naturally, he won't give the ti of day," Yang Jingsheng explained truthfully.

"I see," the middle-aged boss realized, silently cursing the guy for getting what he deserved.

You look down on soone, and when they beco successful, why would they bother with you?

"Boss, let's not talk about anymore. Take out that statue and sell it to him," Yang Jingsheng said.

"How are you so sure he will buy it?" the middle-aged boss asked.

"I'm not certain, but there's no harm in trying. After all, that thing's been sitting here for so long. If he doesn't buy it, there's no loss," Yang Jingsheng said.

"You have a point. Take the statue out, and be careful with it," the middle-aged boss said. "I bought it for a thousand bucks, and if you break it, I'll deduct a thousand from your salary."

"Alright," Yang Jingsheng suddenly felt a bit stifled.

But no matter how stifled he felt, he still had to take it.

After all, he was the employee and the other was the boss.

So, Yang Jingsheng went and took out the statue.

"Xu Yang, co over here and take a look. This statue is a treasured item of the shop owner's. It's not sothing shown to just anyone."

Yang Jingsheng placed the statue on the table.

"This statue..." Xu Yang glanced at it, and his eyes subtly lit up.

However, he kept his composure.

"Boss Xu, what do you think? This little lion statue cost a pretty penny to acquire," the middle-aged boss also ca over to persuade. "As Xiao Yang ntioned, it's not sothing I'd ordinarily show off. I wasn't lying about that. If it weren't for soone of your stature coming along, you wouldn't even get the chance to see it."

"Boss, which dynasty is this statue from?" Xu Yang asked.

"This is a statue from the Tang Dynasty, from the era of Empress Wu Zetian, moreover, it was made on her personal orders," the middle-aged boss seriously bluffed.

"Boss, that kind of talk might fool others, but this is just a statue from the Republic era. Don't think I don't know that," Xu Yang said with a sneer.

"How could that be? I had it appraised; it's definitely from the Tang Dynasty!" The middle-aged boss was surprised to be caught out but pretended to be a victim of deception.

One had to admit, the guy was an excellent actor.

Even Yang Jingsheng, who was standing off to the side, was secretly impressed.

Yet, he was also amazed by Xu Yang's level of appraisal.

The fact that Xu Yang could tell the statue was from the Republic era showed he truly had skill.

It seed that Xu Yang's ability to find bargains wasn't just due to luck; he had the expertise to back it up.

"If you're so convinced it's from the Tang Dynasty, then sell it to that appraiser," Xu Yang chuckled.

"Boss Xu, is it really from the Republic era?" the middle-aged boss inquired.

"Absolutely. If I'm wrong, you can co find , and I'll pay you ten million," Xu Yang declared confidently.

"I trust Boss Xu's judgnt," the middle-aged owner said.

"Thank you," Xu Yang replied.

"That damned appraiser, next ti I see him, I'll make sure he regrets it, making lose five million," the middle-aged boss gritted his teeth in frustration, then turned to Xu Yang and said, "Boss Xu, what do you think of this statue? Even if it's from the Republic era, it's still pretty good, isn't it? Would you be willing to buy it? If you are interested, I can sell it to you for a low price."

"This statue is indeed quite nice. Buying it to use as a desk ornant wouldn't be bad at all, depending on the price you're offering," Xu Yang replied.

"Boss Xu, I bought it for five million. Since it's from the Republic era, it's obviously not worth as much. How about five hundred thousand?" the middle-aged boss proposed.

"You're selling a Republic era statue for five hundred thousand?" Xu Yang gave the middle-aged boss an askance look.

"Boss Xu, as a Republic-era piece, it certainly isn't worth as much historically, but the craftsmanship of this statue is excellent," he said.

"Just look at how lifelike it is. Nowadays, very few people can make a statue like this."

"Even if soone were to make one, it would likely cost two to three hundred thousand, so this statue is definitely worth five hundred thousand. The price I'm offering is absolutely fair," the middle-aged boss said with a silver tongue.
