Chapter 167 The downtrodden noble

Xu Damao smiled slightly and said, "I didn't expect that I met him by chance in the Tame River yesterday."

"It's so disrespectful to see a beautiful duchess."

Catherine could tell that there was no teasing element in Xu Damao's words.

Catherine smiled bitterly and said, "The Duke is the honor of our ancestors."

"Although I have inherited the glory of my ancestors, apart from this title, what else do I have?"

"In the final analysis, I am just a down-and-out noble now!"

Xu Damao already knew something about Catherine's plight.

No matter what Catherine said yesterday or what I saw today.

It's enough to see Catherine's downfall.

Xu Damao smiled and said: "This is only temporary, everything will pass."

"I believe that your family will regain its former glory under your leadership!"

Xu Damao's words were not a compliment, even though he didn't get along with Catherine for long.

But he always had a feeling that the Catherine in front of him was definitely not simple.

Of course, what's more important is that Xu Damao has already had a crush on this beautiful duchess.

With Xu Damao's help, is Catherine afraid that she will not be able to regain her former glory?

"Thank you, I hope that one day too!" Catherine smiled slightly.

At this moment, White had come over with tea and poured a cup for no one.

Along the way, Xu Damao also learned clearly about White's identity.

He is Catherine's butler, and this old butler has already served three dukes in the Duke's Mansion, which can be said to be a great achievement for his hard work.

Catherine held the tea cup and said, "Mr. Xu, you can taste it. Uncle White's tea art is quite good!"

Xu Damao picked up the teacup and took a sip.

The quality of the tea can only be said to be average, not as good as the tea in Xu Damao Eternal Space.

But I have to say that Old White's tea art is still good, even if it's just ordinary tea.

Old White relied on tea art to maximize the taste of tea.

Xu Damao praised: "The taste is very good, Mr. White is a man who understands tea!"

White also smiled when he heard Xu Damao's praise.

White has always been unsmiling. Perhaps because he has been the butler of the Duke's Palace for many years, White still has a sense of arrogance in his body.

Everyone was sipping tea and chatting in the living room when the tea was almost finished.

Catherine said: "Mr. Xu, let's go up. The things are upstairs in the study room I rent!"

Xu Damao said immediately: "Okay."

Xu Damao has long wanted to take a look at antiques.

In a study room on the third floor of the villa, Xu Damao and Catherine appeared here.

Catherine said to Xu Damao: "Mr. Xu, please sit down for a moment and I will bring it to you to take a look!"

After saying that, Catherine walked out of the room.

Xu Damao was a little curious and thought that all the antiques were in this study.

But I didn't expect that this was not the case.

This duchess is so mysterious!

With a thought in his mind, Xu Damao looked in the direction of Catherine.

She walked into an unexpected study room, removed the books from the bookshelf on the wall, and turned the switch on it.

Suddenly, the bookshelf on the other side slowly moved away, revealing a dark doorway.

"That's it!" Xu Damao muttered to himself.

When the veil of mystery was lifted, Xu Damao also understood why Catherine acted so mysteriously.

If it were him, he wouldn't open a secret room in his home in front of others.

The appearance of this secret room can also reveal the hereditary Duke's background.

All doubts were dispelled, and Xu Damao once again directed his mental energy towards the secret room.

The next moment, even Xu Damao, who was used to seeing strong winds and waves, was stunned.

In the secret room, there are hundreds of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, antiques, everything you need.

But that's not the point. What surprised Xu Damao was that the origins of these antiques were very large.

It can be said that if the antiques inside were kept in later generations, each piece would fetch a sky-high price.

Even the word "imperial pen" appears on many calligraphy and paintings!

Xu Damao knew that the duchess's grandfather was not a member of the coalition forces at that time, but also had a very close relationship with the coalition forces at that time.

Xu Damao felt happy, he knew he was going to make a lot of money today!

After a while, Catherine walked in holding a pile of antiques.

"Mr. Xu, take a look!"

With that said, Catherine put the antique on the table.

Xu Damao opened a royal painting. If ordinary people looked at it, they would definitely think that the content in the painting was very vivid.

But in Xu Damao's view, this painter's skill can only be said to be average, but with the word "imperial brush", the value of this painting will definitely increase by ten thousand times.

Not everyone can use the word Yubi. Only the emperor can be called Yubi.

(ps: I wrote about antiques in the previous article. Many readers responded that they didn’t like this content. So here, the author will not go into details, and I wrote it purely for the development of the plot!)

The other paintings, calligraphy, and books on the table are also treasures.

After seeing these treasures, Xu Damao was very excited, but his face was very calm.

Xu Damao frowned, looked at Catherine and said, "Catherine, I think you should understand the value of these antiques, right?"

Catherine nodded and said: "Of course I know that there are still antiques, but I just don't know..."

Catherine has doubts about Xu Damao's financial resources. Until now, she has no idea whether Xu Damao has any money.

She simply doesn't believe an Asian has too much money.

However, she has no choice now and has no choice but to treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.

Naturally, Xu Damao saw Catherine's suspicion.

Xu Damao took out a small notebook and a pen from his pocket and started writing.

After a while, he tore a piece of paper from the small book and handed it to Catherine!

After Catherine took it, she looked at it and was completely stunned.

This is a Citibank check, and the amount on it reaches 300 million British pounds.

Before coming to Britain, Xu Damao deposited most of the more than 1 million British dollars he had previously looted into bearer accounts in Swiss banks.

And a small part was deposited in Citibank.

Xu Damao smiled slightly and said quietly: "I don't have any cash with me. As for the authenticity of the check, you can verify it!"

"If there is no problem after verification, please ask Mr. White to go to the bank and cash this check for me!"

Xu Damao still has tens of millions of British people left in eternal space.

But it was impossible for him to use it, otherwise it would be completely unexplainable that a large amount of cash suddenly appeared.

The value of these antiques is not worth 300 million British dollars at all.

Although, the value of these antiques is very high.
