Billionaire shocks the world with his bad behavior
Chapter 160 Wei Fengchen
As the largest antique dealer in Yucheng, Wanzhenlou is the most low-key and luxurious place in the entire antique street.
Looking at the antiques displayed in the lobby alone, almost all of them are authentic and valuable, which shows the discerning taste of the treasure appraisers.
Why do I say almost? Of course, it’s because Shen Lisu discovered a fake, a fake with extremely sophisticated imitation techniques.
"Where did this jade cup come from?"
Seeing Shen Lisu stop and look at the glass jade cup that the boss had recently received, the waiter did not hide it.
"This was originally a collection of a friend of the boss. He had to part with it for business reasons. In order to find a good owner, I sold it to the boss."
"Tsk, your boss is being slaughtered."
It is often safest to target scammers with people you know. After all, there is a certain level of trust, so many aspects will naturally be overlooked.
"What do you mean?"
The guy was a little unresponsive.
"You're not trying to say this is a fake, are you?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the guests who were originally admiring the various collections in the lobby and even preparing to buy one or two instantly focused their attention on the two of them.
"A fake? That's impossible. Wan Zhenlou is famous for his sharp eyes. Could he have really been fooled?"
"Oh, a beautiful girl who only has beauty, I'm afraid she is deliberately talking nonsense here to attract attention."
"She dared to say there were fakes in Wanzhen Building. Isn't she afraid that Boss Wei would kick her out?"
Since its opening, Wanzhenlou has declared that any counterfeit sold through Wanzhenlou will be compensated tenfold, which shows Wanzhenlou's confidence.
Over the years, Wanzhenlou has indeed never sold a counterfeit item. There are even rumors that anything produced by Wanzhen must be a rare treasure.
Now Shen Lisu openly said that there were counterfeits in Wanzhenlou, which was no different from slapping someone in the face and destroying their signboard in public. The waiter's face suddenly turned bad.
If Shen Lisu wasn't a guest invited by Wei Fengchen, the waiter would have wanted to kick her out directly.
"Ma'am, please be careful with your words. We at Wanzhenlou will not sell counterfeits."
There are three treasure appraisers in their building. It is understandable that one has poor eyesight, but the probability that all three have poor eyesight is extremely small. And the probability that the poor eyesight of three people can be discovered by an outsider is almost zero.
Anyway, no one would believe Shen Lisu’s nonsense.
"The boss is still waiting upstairs, please, ma'am."
This was intended to take Shen Lisu away from the lobby directly to avoid causing greater impact.
Shen Lisu didn't care about the change in the waiter's attitude, nor did she intend to argue about right or wrong. The purpose of her trip was to get the ghost market pass, not anything else.
"Madam, you said this jade cup is a fake. Can you explain it in detail?"
Sometimes things are just so coincidental. After drinking the wine brought by Shen Lisu, Wei Fengchen was stunned by her beauty and his craving for alcohol was aroused.
As a result, she waited for a long time but Shen Lisu didn't show up. Thinking that maybe she was unhappy because she had treated her poorly before, she was about to go downstairs to greet her, but just in time she heard Shen Lisu say that there was a fake here.
She originally thought that Shen Lisu was deliberately trying to attract attention and show off her talent, but she never expected that facing the waiter's dark face, she had no intention of arguing at all and was honestly preparing to go upstairs. This instead made her interested and curious.
"After all, our Wanzhen Building has a good reputation. If it is not clear, it will do more harm than good."
Following the voice coming from above, Shen Lisu slightly raised her head, and at first glance, she saw a delicate and generous face, with neat short hair, a green dress, and wisdom and generosity between her brows. However, her dark eyes did not have the shrewdness of an ordinary businessman, but instead had a kind of clarity that saw through the world.
If she were in ancient times, she would have been a swordsman who traveled freely and unrestrainedly.
After just one meeting, Shen Lisu knew that this person was worth making friends with.
While Shen Lisu was looking at Wei Fengchen, she was also observing this winemaker who could make the best wine she had ever tasted.
She was different from what she had imagined, bright, charming, and graceful, but her style of doing things was very straightforward. There was a huge contrast and contradiction, but she couldn't help but be attracted to her.
Logically speaking, Wei Fengchen is not used to, or does not like dealing with people with overly beautiful looks.
It doesn’t matter whether they are men or women, she just feels that this type of people are usually very aggressive and make her uncomfortable.
But the carefree and easy nature of Shen Lisu, who was worldly-wise but not worldly-wise, neutralized this extremely aggressive glamour and did not disgust her.
There is even some spontaneous affection for him.
"It was my negligence."
Shen Lisu apologized for inadvertently damaging the reputation of Wanzhenlou.
Then she walked to the jade cup again, looked around carefully, and still insisted on her previous judgment.
"Excuse me, this is indeed a fake, but the imitation is of extremely high craftsmanship."
After listening to Shen Lisu's judgment, Wei Fengchen did not get angry or directly deny it. Instead, he asked someone to invite the three treasure appraisal masters in the building to find out the truth.
You can only know whether it is true or false after testing it.
"What's your name, ma'am?"
"Su Jin."
Shen Lisu showed her smile generously.
"I'm from Haicheng. I recently opened a jade carving shop on Jade Street. Boss Wei, you can come visit us if you have time."
In just two or three sentences, she explained the origin of her name clearly. Her frankness made Wei Fengchen feel more favorable towards her.
“So it’s Boss Su, but I didn’t expect you were in the jade carving business. I thought a winemaking master came to Jade City.”
The four words "master winemaker" are enough to show how satisfied Wei Fengchen is with the wine she brews.
"It's embarrassing to come here empty-handed. I don't bring much wine this time. If Boss Wei likes it, I'll send some more over some other day. I have a lot of other wines, all brewed by myself."
Upon hearing this, Wei Fengchen's eyes immediately lit up, and he wished he could drag Shen Lisu to her place and ask for a glass of wine.
Oh, one cup may not be enough. A few more cups would be better. It would be best to use a wine jug. The more the better.
As soon as they heard that someone had smashed the signboard, three treasure appraisers rushed over immediately.
Seeing the young and beautiful Shen Lisu, they had no intention of looking down on her, especially Wei Fengchen's attitude towards her, which made them treat her with caution.
"Boss Su, this jade cup has been appraised by the three of us. We heard that you have a different opinion, so we came here to ask for your advice."
I have to say that Wei Fengchen is a very capable person with a good eye for people. Even when facing doubts, these three treasure appraisal masters were polite and showed their masterly demeanor.
"You teachers are too polite. I only have a superficial understanding of it. It was only when I was lucky enough to see the real thing that I accidentally discovered the flaw."
In order to recover national treasures scattered around the world, her parents often took her to broaden her horizons. In order to distinguish the real from the fake, they even sought out the most powerful treasure appraiser in Huazhou to learn from him, and Shen Lisu was also influenced by him.
Perhaps it was because of her young age and her newly opened brain that Shen Lisu learned more and more, and she became even better than the Shen couple. Her talent was so high that even the treasure appraiser wanted to take her as his disciple.
"This jade cup is made using the thin-body technique. The maker carefully controlled the thickness of the cup wall, making it extremely thin without affecting the overall structure. It was very popular among the nobles at the time..."
With Shen Lisu's professional introduction, people around her were gradually attracted by her story.
But this only shows that she is knowledgeable, but it cannot prove that this jade cup is a fake.
"Most importantly, I was lucky enough to see the real thing."
