Following the words, a well-built old man in his early sixties walked out of the back room.

Of course Pi Yangyang knew this man, he was Zhu Jiale, the owner of this store.

However, Zhu Jiale could not recognize Pi Yangyang.

Seeing that the boss had already spoken, the waiter reluctantly took out the beads again.

Tang Ruijing still turned to look at Pi Yangyang and asked, "Is it right this time?"

Pi Yangyang nodded, "You can't go wrong this time, buy it, your grandma will definitely like it."

Tang Ruijing no longer hesitated and said to the waiter: "Then please wrap it up for me. I'll give it away."

Then she went over and paid the bill.

After the packaging was completed, Tang Ruijing put away the gift box and prepared to leave.

But as soon as the two of them walked to the door, Pi Yangyang's eyes suddenly glanced at the two paperweights on a desk.

The two paperweights were dark and inconspicuous in appearance, with rough surfaces, just two stones that had not been refined and polished.

But Pi Yangyang actually felt the spiritual energy emanating from these two stones.

Something stirred in his mind, and he was thinking about how to buy these two paperweights. Zhu Jiale took the initiative and said, "Boy, we have a lot of good things in this store. Why don't you take a look?"

Pi Yangyang slowly turned around and said casually: "What other good things can there be?"

Zhu Jiale rolled his eyes, leaned over and took out an item from the cabinet, placed it on the counter, and said, "Look at this, take your eyes. This is a good thing I just bought from abroad..."

Pi Yangyang seemed to be interested. He walked over to take a look, and then sneered and said, "That's it, a good thing? It's only a few hundred thousand, right?"

Placed in front of him was an emerald snuff bottle. It's not a fake, it's indeed something from the Whip Kingdom period, and it has some collectible value.

But Pi Yangyang was not interested in these. After absorbing the spiritual energy, he wanted to sell the Chi You token on his body.

It’s only 500 million, which most people can’t afford.

"Awesome, little brother's eyesight is really amazing. I indeed bought this snuff bottle for 130,000 yuan..."

Zhu Jiale has now determined that Pi Yangyang may be a real expert in jade, antiques, etc., and it will be difficult to fool him.

He rolled his eyes and suddenly asked with a smile on his face: "I wonder if my little brother is interested in calligraphy and painting?"

Pi Yangyang was just thinking about taking down the two paperweights, but he didn't expect Zhu Jiale to ask about calligraphy and painting.

He knows that people in this industry are all talented people, and he can tell whether you want it or not by just looking at your face.

The more you want something, the more he will ask for it.

Therefore, he had to pretend to be unintentional in order to make this man relax his vigilance and let him take away the pair of paperweights smoothly.

Once he is alerted, there is no telling what kind of sky-high price will be offered.

"Mr. Pi, what do you like? I'll buy it for you!"

Tang Ruijing saw that Pi Yangyang seemed to be interested in antiques, so he said softly to the side.

Pi Yangyang cured her disease, and she always wanted to find a chance to thank him.

As for the 30 million given by her father, that is her father's business, and what she wants to express is her own feelings.

Pi Yangyang seemed to be uninterested and said: "Forget it, I guess they can't really have any good collection..."

Saying that, he shook his head and prepared to leave.

At this time, Zhu Jiale had already solemnly held a long box from under the cabinet and placed it on the counter.

Looking at the box, it looks antique and has obvious wear and tear. It looks like it has been aged for a long time.

Pi Yangyang seemed to be attracted immediately, staring at the long box and asked: "This is it?"

Zhu Jiale did not answer, but found a brand new pair of white gloves and put them on. Then he solemnly held the long box in his hands and came to the desk.

The guy also put on gloves and came to the desk.

"Sir, please close your eyes."

Zhu Jiale said something and then carefully opened the box, revealing a scroll tied with a red ribbon.

The scroll has turned slightly yellow, and there are obvious signs of wear and tear on both ends, giving it an air of history.

The waiter cooperated with Zhu Jiale and slowly opened the scroll, and a landscape painting gradually appeared in front of Pi Yangyang and Tang Ruijing.

The paper is slightly yellow, but every stroke on it is very clear. A picture of a combination of landscapes, pavilions and terraces is ready to be drawn.

Tang Ruijing didn't understand ancient calligraphy and painting, but he still looked amazed when he saw it.

However, she had received one blow after another today, and now she did not dare to speak easily, just waiting for what Pi Yangyang said.

"Sir, do you have any insights?"

Seeing Pi Yangyang staring intently, Zhu Jiale felt secretly proud and said calmly.

"Nice painting."

Pi Yangyang looked at it for a moment, nodded and gave a four-word evaluation.

Zhu Jiale's face suddenly relaxed: This guy is pretending, who doesn't know that he can draw well?

"Oh, this should be Ni Zan's work in his later years. He is really indifferent to the world..."

At this moment, a strong voice sounded.

Immediately, an old man with gray beard and hair, wearing a white Tang suit, thick reading glasses, a string of diamonds on his wrist, walked over quickly.

Behind him, there were several middle-aged men who looked quite imposing, and a young man carrying a small wooden box.

"Hey, Master Mu! Why are you free to visit the store today?"

When Zhu Jiale saw this person, he immediately smiled brightly and greeted him with fists in his hands.

Judging from his expression, he was very attentive, as if the person standing in front of him was indeed some kind of master.

Pi Yangyang glanced at it, and an imperceptible smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.

He knew very well that this so-called Master Mu was actually Zhu Jiale's agent.

For those who don't know him, one look at his appearance and aura, he does look like a master.

And he is indeed well-known in the Qingjiang antique world.

Master Mu said with a reproachful look on his face: "Boss Zhu, you are not kind! I came to your place a few days ago, why didn't you take out this painting? Are you afraid that I can't afford the price?"

Zhu Jiale said: "Master Mu is surprised. I just got this painting the day before yesterday. It just so happens that this gentleman said that there is nothing interesting in our store, so why not take it out for appreciation."

"Oh, that's it. I can't blame you..."

Master Mu seemed relieved, smiled, then stretched out his hand and said: "Give me the magnifying glass."

The young man carrying the wooden box quickly opened the box, found a magnifying glass from inside, and handed it to Master Mu.

Master Mu immediately got close to the scroll and looked at it carefully bit by bit.

As he watched, he also clicked his tongue.

Seeing his serious and surprised look, Pi Yangyang couldn't help but secretly laugh.

"It is worthy of being the work of Master Ni Zan. The brushwork is natural, the artistic conception is powerful, and the technique is even more superb... This painting was exiled overseas in the early years. It is said that it was auctioned by a patriotic wealthy businessman in my country last year and returned to China at a very high price. Unexpectedly, it came back to China again. Now Qingjiang..."

Master Mu watched for five minutes before slowly standing up straight and speaking with deep feeling.

"To be honest, Master Mu, that patriotic businessman is a good friend of mine. At that time, he spent 26 million to acquire this painting. If the company he held had not encountered financial difficulties, You won't take it out and let me sell it..."

Zhu Jiale immediately introduced him, and after speaking, he sighed softly, as if he felt sorry for his friend.

"Twenty-six million...well, it's worth the money, it's worth the money! If I hadn't just spent a lot of money to acquire a jade tripod recently, and I was short of funds, I would have definitely won this painting!"

Master Mu also seemed to feel very sorry. As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look at Pi Yangyang.

"Young man, what do you think of this painting?"

Pi Yangyang actually saw at first glance that this was actually just a high-end fake.

What cost 26 million to buy and what is worth the money? These two people were playing a double act, trying to lure Pi Yangyang into the game.

Such a scam is too young for Pi Yangyang, how could he fall for it?

Hearing Master Mu's question, he shook his head slightly and said calmly:

"The painting is good, but it's a fake!"
