Chapter 634: Chapter 568: The Premature Death of the First Wife in the Son-in-Law Text 31
An hour later, Rong Yan and Qin Ye erged from the antiques store.
Boss Tang called out from behind them, “If you have good items in the future, make sure to co to our store.”
“Sure!” Rong Yan thought the store’s prices were fair and didn’t rip people off. She would inevitably co here in the future.
Thinking about the 250,000 yuan that had flowed into her pocket, she felt particularly satisfied, as it was higher than her estimated price.
If she had not sold the painting in this store, she probably would have been duped out of half the money.
After all, not everyone was so conscientious.
Of course, had she not been in need of money right now, she definitely wouldn’t have sold the painting. Keeping it for later and making a few million would have been absolutely no problem.
But alas, she needed money now.
“Let’s keep looking around!”
If they could find more good items, that would be even better.
That way, within a few days, they could amass a substantial amount of money.
Then she wouldn’t focus on buying comrcial housing but head straight for a courtyard house.
Currently, the prices of courtyard houses were probably between 200,000 and 300,000 yuan.
“Okay!” Qin Ye had no objections.
He had truly been stunned, so much so that he still hadn’t recovered.
So, she was that impressive.
Additionally, the fact that a single painting had sold for 250,000 yuan was sowhat hard for him to believe.
He had thought his own assets made him one of the wealthier individuals.
It turned out… indeed, one should never feel smug about any bit of success.
There are always more mountains beyond mountains, and people beyond people.
However, he felt genuinely happy for her.
Seeing that his gaze had never shifted away from her face, Rong Yan directly asked, “Why are you staring at like that? Do you have sothing you want to say?”
“Are you really so sure about trusting ?” Qin Ye had wanted to ask this question ever since they left the store.
After all, it was a lot of money! Wasn’t she afraid he might have sinister intentions? Especially considering they had just t today.
Thinking about it… The two had known each other for less than eight hours.
Rong Yan chuckled, “What’s there not to trust, unless you’re planning to take advantage now?”
Qin Ye imdiately shook his head, “No, I won’t.”
He was truly attracted to her.
Rong Yan: “Then that settles it, there’s nothing for to worry about.”
Hearing her say this, Qin Ye was particularly pleased.
His eyes were filled with smiles.
It had been a long ti since soone had trusted him completely, and it felt very strange.
It also made him feel deeply moved.
Rong Yan glanced at his grinning face and inexplicably felt joyful inside.
“I made so money today, I’ll treat tonight, and you’re not allowed to fight over the bill.”
“Sure!” Why would Qin Ye refuse? He didn’t want to ruin her good mood.
“Let’s go! Let’s keep looking around. We might still find so nice items. Later on, I’ll pick sothing out for you as well.”
Qin Ye said it wasn’t necessary, but thinking… was this not also akin to her indirectly giving him a gift?
So the refusal on the tip of his tongue imdiately changed to, “Okay!”
It was a ti when antiques were popular, and there were quite a lot of people finding bargains. It was said that many people beca rich overnight during this era.
Moreover, there were really many genuine items being sold at low prices by people at this ti.
As Rong Yan visited several stalls, she indeed spotted so good items.
However, bargaining took skill—if you show the stall owners too much interest, they’ll raise their prices sky-high.
Then you’d definitely make less profit.
And if stall owners realized their items were genuine, would they still sell to you? Dream on! Wouldn’t they make more money selling genuine goods themselves?
They all thought these were fakes, hence why they tried to trick others into buying.
With Rong Yan’s appearance, she looked just like a rich, easy target.
Every stall owner looked at her as if she were glowing gold.
So with her wealthy-sucker look, she bought quite a lot of items at a reasonable price along the way.
By the ti the two had finished wandering around, Qin Ye’s hands were full.
Rong Yan was extrely satisfied with their haul.
Her mood couldn’t have been better.
Ha, they all thought she was a fool, but little did they know… after today’s scavenging, they had unwittingly given her a courtyard house, without her even needing to touch the money she had made from the painting.
“Let’s head back.”
Carrying so many items wouldn’t be convenient for dining out.
Besides, she couldn’t cash these items in all at once—if she did, she figured she would beco famous on the spot today.
Although… she had already beco sowhat famous.
But not in the other way she was known for.
“Okay.” Qin Ye didn’t ask whether the items she bought were real or fake; he was fine just helping to carry them.
This ti, they took a taxi back.
Because Rong Yan had argued a vendor into giving her a urea bag to carry the items, her casual packaging thod made the vendors even more convinced that she was a rich fool who had co here to act the part.
They hoped this fool would co and patronize their stalls every day.
Once at the hotel, the two went straight upstairs.
“Co in, I’ll give you a few items.”
Since she had picked up many things, giving him a few wouldn’t matter.
“No need, one is enough for .” Qin Ye didn’t want to take advantage of this as he sohow believed everything she bought was genuine.
“Three, you pick three.” Rong Yan was insistent.
Seeing this, Qin Ye reluctantly grabbed three random small objects from the urea bag.
“I’ll pay you.”
He gave her one hundred yuan because he had a good mory and rembered the price she paid for each item. So for these three, he ended up giving fifty yuan more than she had paid.
Rong Yan accepted the money without hesitation.
She said, “Don’t just lose these; if you’re going to sell them, go to the store we visited today. They’ll give you a fair price.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Ye suddenly felt the items burning in his hands.
“I…”
He thought about returning the items.
Seeing his expression, Rong Yan naturally knew what he was thinking.
“Co on, I told you I picked these out for you. Just take them, otherwise I’ll be upset.”
Hearing her ntion getting upset, Qin Ye no longer thought of returning them.
“That’s settled then. Thank you! Since you’ve found such great items for , I’ll treat tonight. Going forward, I’ll also pay for our accommodations. Otherwise, I’d feel guilty keeping these.”
Rong Yan: …
Was this guy just looking for an excuse to pay for her room all along?
“Alright then! Let’s not talk about what’s already paid. From now on, you can pay.”
After all, the three items she gave him… were worth quite a bit.
Qin Ye appeared especially happy. After spending most of the day together, he felt they had grown even closer.
These three items… he wouldn’t sell them; he planned to keep them forever.
“Will these items be safe here?”
“They’ll be fine. Let’s go have dinner first. Tomorrow we can slowly sell them off.” Then look at houses and buy a house.
Rong Yan thought about how she had beco rich just by coming to Jing City.
It felt as though she had picked up the script of a thrilling drama with a powerful female lead.
